we have 3 HP 820 Elitebooks, they all have the m.2 slot.

they are plug and play, a second SSD in all respects. I bought another 
one on eBay a couple months ago: 512GB 512G NGFF M2 2242 SATA SSD 
<https://www.ebay.com/itm/512GB-512G-NGFF-M2-2242-SATA-SSD-Solid-State-HDD-hard-drive-for-HP-Lenovo-Acer/123087137857?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649> 
$80 usd with shipping. the "2242" is the length, very important

m.2 is my boot drive, the conventional 2.5" ssd is my secondary drive
