HP 250 G4 Laptop

The HP 250 G4 i5 128gb SSD does not have a 'Normal' SSD Drive but instead a 'Card' attached to an interface that does not support the usual 2.5" SSD Drive---I've spent days trying to find how to Upgrade the HD and can get no answer from HP nor anywhere else! Can you possibly help, I'd be most obliged!

Are you sure it isn't sata? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ey6KxAly9cQ

Can you take a pic of the card you are referring to? According to the manual it is SATA. I know that some laptops have an adapter that connects to the SATA connection on the drive and then that plugs into the motherboard.

On page 43 of this manual it shows there is a card that plugs into the SATA port of the drive: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04653884
Is this how yours is?

I have since found out it is a 'SAMSUNG MZNLF128HCHP-000H1 - 119.24 GB 'Card' Largest Upgrade I can find is 512GB, but at £300, (more than what I paid for the Laptop) I will not be buying it and have added an external 1TB Drive at £45!

The secret is the 'Specific' Model sold as a Windows10, i5 Processor with 120 'SSD' but it is, I believe an M2 connection. but does not have the Interface to accept a 'Normal' 2.5" SSD. To my mind the Description is misleading and I would not have purchased this Machine had I known, since my intention was always to upgrade the Drive to 1TB.

I'd like to thank everyone who has answered my query!
