I want to add an SSD to my system. I just can't figure out what will work.
Also, I want to use it as a boot drive if possible.
My system is an HP Envy Phoenix 860-014 (https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c04816928).
My mother board is a Thimphu (https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04790224) .
It has the following expansion slots:
One PCI Express x1 (Gen 3.0)
One M.2 socket 1, key A
One M.2 socket 3, key M
I have no idea what these slots are good for in regard to an SSD drive.
I have had a question on this issue that has been hanging unanswered on the HP support forum for days now.
Any help and insight would be much appreciated.
Please excuse my lack of knowledge around this. I have no experience with SSD's.
Thanks,
Del.
