It suggests there are two M.2 slots under where you are holding your drive.

Yeah that looks right assuming its the right model; compared to the diagram in the quick start guide, in the picture he’s covering the area where the slots are with his hand and the drive hes holding. This quide for the same model numbers is the same: manualmachine.com/intel/…/8104213-user-manual/
OP needs to check his model number.
Unfortunately the guide suggests it only supports 80mm length (2260) NVME drives. There could be a screw hole for the 42mm or 60mm sizes but they’re not mentioned. It may be too small for the design of the laptop. OP is holding what looks like a 2242?
There are adaptors (e.g. on ebay) to add length to a shorter drive to fit into the slot, but the ideal is to buy the right size of the slot.
