Its better than them not giving you the slot at all.

*When you realize there’s an inductor in the way of your NVMe slot but you don’t have time to rearrange the board traces to move it*

Out of sight, out of mind.

There’s a decent explanation for this
Wacky_Network
you cant really see it anyways if its closed up just like bad cable management being hidden behind a panel

That’s something only a non engineer would say, heck if the alternative is to redesign the whole fucking pcb, I’d cram that nvme in there vertically if I have to

If you cared about hardware, you wouldn’t be buying HP

Atleast it exists.

The nvme slot is perfectly fine, it’s the rest of the board that’s wonky.

Looks like other components got in the way or they could do it straight, but the screw will be to close to the heatpipe. At leats it’s a removable and thus upgradeable NVMe slot and not soldered.

My OCD can’t handle this…..

Correct me if I’m wrong, but this looks like a shoddy manufacture. Fairly sure that slot is meant to be straight.

I’m triggered you have an hp product lmfao

Fixed it
If it’s stupid and it works then it’s not stupid
Mass produced computes are so silly sometimes, that’s definitely there for the spec list and an up charge.
I mean who gives a fuck, not like I’ll be looking at this at any point while using it
It’s hp. Most of their products are disgusting
Most likely it’s a revised motherboard for which they wanted to add an NVMe
It does feel “wrong” to look at, but onjectively this is excellent design and good use of the space available.
