Does the Hewlett-Packard Elite x2 1011 G1 Tablet Take an NVMe SSD?

Hewlett-Packard Elite x2 1011 G1 Tablet

Every one of 5 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.

That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.

Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.

Reported by field data

Storage controller:
Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP SATA Controller [AHCI Mode]

Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.

How we know

This answer is derived from 5 independent hardware reports for the Hewlett-Packard Elite x2 1011 G1 Tablet, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
