What's the purpose of the laptop?

Most new gaming laptops can take M.2 SATA/PCIe and HDD.

the purpose is not for gaming,and gaming ones are usually bulky, plus a premium cost for the gpu which isn't needed

Gen 4 hp probook 450's are being shipped with either m.2 or spinners at the moment and I have replaced a few with m.2 boards so they for sure will.

i couldnt find anything new that was cheap or second hand that wasnt either damaged or i wasnt sure of the SSD it could take. i took a gamble and asked corporate IT if they had anything spare, and they gave me an Elite Book book 2570p with an i5-3380 , its got a dvd writer, but IT had a spare HDD converter , so i popped a 1gb hdd in there and a 128gb SSD in the internal bay , sorted all for the price of the 1gb drive from ocuk
