I added a 1tb drive with some difficulity. Please read my review for more details.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Here are the expansion slots that are available on this desktop: One PCIe x16 socket (for discrete graphic card), One PCIe x1 socket, One M.2 socket 1, key A and One M.2 socket 3, key M. You could add a solid state drive in the M.2 socket 3, key M slot. For more assistance, I would recommend reaching out to HP Support or the Geek Squad at Best Buy.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I replaced the OEM SSD with a 2 TB Samsung 970 EVO with no real problems. I also added a 2 TB Samsung 870 and a 1TB Samsung 870. Cable management was a bit challenging and I had to buy a drive adapter for 10 bucks. I now have 5 TB of SSD storage, an NVIDIA GT 1030 video card, a 4 USB 3.0 card, and 32 GB RAM . All installed with no hiccups at all. I do recommend Macrium drive cloning software to duplicate the data on the OEM SSD.
