    Choosing proper SSD drive for HP 15 - bs0xx board

    Hi guys,
    I have hp15 laptop, the model exactly as described here:
    https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebo...x/td-p/8048592
    Picture of the SSD slot is attached.

    The thing is that I have M.2 2280 SSd drive Kingston A2000, SA2000M8/250 GB.
    It doesn't fit, so it seems that this slot on the motherboard is actually for SSD drives with B key, which are pretty rare nowadays, since Nvme are dominating.
    When fitting drive to slot normally electronics and labels should be faced upwards to me while installing the drive.
    This kingston drive has this notch on the right side, but slot has on the left.

    Which M+B key drive fit this slot on the motherboard?

    Are you sure that's an SSD slot ? Where are the mounting holes ?

      The screw is exactly 80 mm from the slot (goes over these flat cables).
      Right below the slot is written JSSD and there is a screw to keep drive in place.
      Please have a look at the attached picture.

        looks like SATA.
        the whole connector thing on modern pc's is a shitshow!

          Yes indeed, I manage to google it out eventually. It is M.2 SATA and the drive must be 80 mm SATA (not NvMe) that has both B and M key on the connector.
