Could be the wireless card, though it's fuzzy to see.

PCIe slot. Its for the SSD that yours did not come with.
The wirelwss is on the otherside of the RAM from my memory.

i didnt even realize that when I wrote it. Yea, Pun not intended.
The wireless is to the left of the RAM, and that is to the right.

presumably it could be for other things than an ssd? like a wwan card for example.

yes. Anything PCIe micro can be installed in it. Finding drivers may be a pain though.
