I want to upgrade to an SSD via the M.2 port so I can also utilize the already existing HDD. The model number is 15-CX0056WM. I noticed that the slot for it looked a little weird when I opened it up. The small grouping of pins on the port has four pins but I can only find SSDs with 5 or 6 pins on the smaller grouping and can’t find any SSD is that look like they match. Any ideas?

It looks like one I guess. It has a port and a screw hole like other SSD slots. I'm not sure if I can send you a picture on here but it has 29 pins on the left and 4 pins on the right on the connector.

You need to determine exactly what type of m.2 drive it can take.
NVMe or SATA III. Some systems can only take one or the other, some systems can take either.
