I bought HP Notebook - 15-Dw3014ne
I have only 256gb SDD 
When i open it I was surprised that I have no holder for HDD and the sata adapter.
Can you guide me where can i find the exact Type for it.

Here is the part number for the cable. Unfortunately the bracket for the HDD is not available as a separate part.

You can use velcro tape or double sided sticky tape as a workaround for the lack of a bracket.

I personally prefer the velcro solution.

Generally speaking, there isn't really any room for an extra HDD or SSD on notebooks that are 15" and smaller.

 

There probably isn't even an extra SATA header on your notebook's system board. That would make acquiring a "holder" and a SATA adapter an unnecessary purchase.

 

In the past there were DVD rewriters in notebooks as a norm. That rewriter could be removed and a disk caddy put in its place.

 

17" notebooks still have the physical dimensions required which gives them room for extra storage devices. They usually have an extra SATA header as well.

 

Times and notebook sizes and hardware configurations have changed.  You can still upgrade the SSD to a greater capacity unit or use an external USB disk.
