I found the solution. I bought the adapter at amazon. The new SDD works.

Hi @VO3 

 

You can not, these drives only support one M.2 NVME drive, if you want you can change that drive for a larger size of 1 Tb, 2 Tb or more.

Hi, @VO3 

 

The service manual indicates that dual drive configurations are supported, but chapter 3 has no list of parts/part numbers to install one.

I did find a model that came with a 2.5" drive and the parts list for that model is below:

 

HP PartSurfer

 

L20103-001
HDD CABLE Include HDD foil
L21894-001
HDD RUBBER

 

What I don't know is where you will buy this cable or the HDD mounting device.

Strange, you don't see a place to put a second disk, and Crucial doesn't offer 2.5” disks.

Yes, it is, but here is a discussion I replied to a while back where someone has a similar model in the series that came with a hard drive.

I understand but if I look at the motherboard of this model where possibly the SATA cable connector is, next to the battery connector, I do not see space to put a disk.
