My Laptop is a:
Zbook 15
HP 1909 motherboard
8GB Ram
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2.40GHz, 2401 Mhz,
I'm looking to add a second SSD that is faster and larger then the 256GB one installed currently. I do have a CDrom in my rig so I am not sure I have the ability to add a second disk. Rather then open up the rig and look around I figured Id ask here. Also looking to see if I have any m2 capability. Been a nightmare trying to find a manual for this unit.
Any help is very appreciated as I'm not looking to spend before I verify.
Thank you

I believe your machine is one of many options of zBook 15 G2 series machines. From the Maintenance and Service Guide, you can have
Primary storage : 2.5" HDD/SSD (*)
Support for 6.35-cm (2.5-in) hard drives in 7.0-mm (.28-in) and 9.5-mm (.37-in) thickness
Support for the 6.35-cm (2.5-in) solid-state drives
Secondary ONLY one option of
Support for the 9.5-mm (.37-in) , SATA optical drives
Support for 6.35-cm (2.5-in) 750-GB, 7200-rpm SATA hard drive in 7.0-mm (.28-in) and 9.5-mm (.37-in) thicknesses
Supports for no Upgrade drive option (bezel)
You say your machine already has 256GB SSD already, please check in Device Manager to see what it is
If mSATA that mean you can add 2.5" SSD/HDD to the slot (*) above.
