OMEN by HP - 17-w200 CTO

I have a Omen hp-17-W200 CTO laptop. It has a  M2 128gig. ssd, and a 1 terabyte HD. I believe windows is installed on the SSD which is getting pretty full. I want to upgrade to a 1 terabyte SSD.

The computer documentation states NVMe SSD. so I ordered one. (Crucial PCle 3.0 NVMe M2 SSD.) But when I opened laptop and removed existing SSD it was a SanDisk® X400 SSD (SD8SN8U-128G), which I believe is a M2 SATA not a M2 NVMe. the original SSD has 3 tabs or fingers while the new one has 2. But they both fit in the socket/slot. Does this mean that my SSD socket is B+M keyed and will work with both PCIe NVMe SSD and M2 SATA or do I have to Install a M2 SATA.

Hi:

 

There are two service manuals on your notebook's support page depending on what graphics adapter your notebook has.

One manual indicates that both SATA and NVMe SSD's are supported and the other indicates that only NVMe SSD's are supported.

Thanks, Paul, It sounds like my new ssd will work because thay all support nmve. So mine must support both because it currently has a M2 SATA. Your answer is much appreciated.
