No. hp pavilion 15z-eh000 laptop has no room for hdd but it can however can be upgraded with nvme ssd but it has only one slot so you might have to backup everything you have on you’re laptop, upgrade it and back it up again which will leave you with typical nvme ssd that has no purpose which you could sell it online and other thing you can upgrade is ram but you can only upgrade one slot of the laptop so you either gonna stuck with 12gb or 20gb of ram which won’t be running on dual channel so it would be slower but again runnable I guess

"Hi,

Looking at the maintenance and service guide for the model series, it seems that there is only one HDD connector on the motherboard.

If you wish to add extra storage, an option to consider is to insert the largest capacity SD card that you want, into the card reader slot (left side of laptop) and leave it there. Configure it as the storage drive i.e. point all your data folders towards it and leave the HDD as the OS and Program drive. That way if ever the laptop fails you have easy access to all your data. Simply remove the card, no need to open the laptop. There is a downside that anyone can take the card out, but they have to know that it is there. Just a thought."
