Looking at the [link|http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06719992.pdf|maintenance and service guide] for the model series, it seems that there is only one HDD connector on the motherboard.

If you wish to add extra storage, an option to consider is to insert the largest capacity SD card that you want, into the card reader slot and leave it there. Configure it as the storage drive i.e. point all your data folders towards it and leave the HDD as the OS and Program drive. That way if ever the laptop fails you have easy access to all your data. Simply remove the card, no need to open the laptop. There is a downside that anyone can take the card out, but they have to know that it is there. Just a thought.
