    M.2 slot .

    Good day! I'm Raniel, an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

    Upon checking some forums, it appears that HP Pavilion AU620tx doesn't have an m.2 SATA slot:

    I suggest coordinating this with HP since it is more related to a hardware concern.

    Regarding your other concern, the DVD drive slot would give the same speed as a normal HDD slot would, and will be dependent on your HDD's rpm.

    I hope this helps.
