Depending on your model it may have either an M.2 or a regular SATA drive.

Here’s the link to Service Manual. Download it and take a look:

What you can do is replace the CD/DVD Optical drive with a hard drive caddy that fits in its slot. This shows you how to remove the optical drive.

You will have to search the Web for the caddy. Make sure you get the right width to fit.
