I want to update HP 250 G5 (W4N28EA)
The factory equipment is 1HDD and there is no drive bay. But it looks like there is a place to connect. I want to put a 240 GB SSD + HDD (leave which was).
How can this be done, if possible?

1. Disassemble
2.1. If there is a transition bar from the cable to mini-sata, then you are very lucky and you can proceed to step 3
2.2. If there is no bar, but there is a JODD connector, then crawl to Avito / ebay / disassembly / workshops in search of a bar with a loop and then go to step 3.
2.3. If the JODD connector is not soldered, then the second port on the board has not been removed, and only the USB-HDD will save here.
3. Buy HDD-CADDY and insert disk
