Ended up solving by ordering a 2TB NVMe I’ll replace a 512GB in my main PC with, so at least if I’m out of pocket it’s for an upgrade

      HP shipped it with an NVMe with the HDD caddy empty and I expected it. Maybe I’m a sucker. Idk I didn’t like it.

        Looks like you got what you paid for. When you buy second hand, you always need to be very careful about the exact specs you’re getting and get that in writing. Then again, that doesn’t seem like a huge deal to me.

      In general these are shipped with an NVMe and then the expansion slot is for a 2.5 inch sata sdd. So this has been modified at some point and the seller probably should have stated.

        it’s a ‘refurb’, listings for those by third-party sellers are usually lacking in details, just saying ‘ssd’–not what type or brand. technically, op got what he ordered.

          Yeah I get that technically he did get what he ordered and you can’t argue with it. Still, it’s dodgy.
