Got a used HP Probook laptop. Just needs a new drive. HP specs say it has an m.2 2280 slot. So that’s what I ordered. Guess I needed to look closer.

edit: Thanks for all the info, guys. Different types of keys are explained here. Gonna have to look for a sketchy no-name brand.

    Because they love to change the URLs of their website every year. For an old product everything a search engine gives you is an error 404.

    You need the service manual, and in the service manual there’s all the detailed specs and variants and exact product numbers of supported components

      One of the universal truths is that a drunk sailor with a fistful of money could simply not buy anything on the HP site before he sobered up. That site is the hallmark of super-bad site design, and always has been.
