Product: HP ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 860-180st CTO
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Kind of a basic question - I appreciate the time.

 

I have an HP ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 860-180st CTO.  It came from HP with x1SSD and x2 HDDs in it.   I'm putting a M.2 drive in it in a couple of weeks, and plan to take the smaller SATA SSD out.  I was hoping to eventually put a HDD where the smaller SDD was mounted (for some additional storage). 

 

The way the case is designed on this ENVY, It has all three drives in a rack, with the SSD on top in a bracket, and then the two HDDs below it.  Does anyone know if when I remove the SSD, if a 3.5 will then fit - or will I have to buy additional mounting hardware?  Not sure how HP does it.  If I do have to buy additional mounting hardware - can someone link me to something that will work for this particular PC?  Again, the three drives are stacked in the rack one on top of the other, and the top is an SSD, that' I'm wanting to replace with an HDD.

 

I really appreciate it.  Merry Christmas all!
