Accepted Answer

Depends on your laptop. It can be an add on as it was in my case, because I had the m.2 slot available as well as the standard sata drive which is pretty standard. Because I had both the sata 2.5 inch drive slot and the m.2 slot, it was an add on. If your elite book however, only has 1 M.2 slot and no other HDD connector, then it will be a replacement. If it doesn't have an M.2 slot at all, then this part is not for you. I would ask your IT department about this, as they would be the most informed on what specifically your laptop has.
