Hi Kevroll,
Okay, the best source of information is the Hardware Maintenance Manual kindly provided by Lenovo. Here's where you can download a copy.
s130-11igm_s130-14igm_130s-11igm_130s-14...
Page 46 shows how to remove the SSD (I assume that's what you meant rather than "SAD").
Note that it does say "on select models", so it's entirely possible yours doesn't have a spot for an SSD, but if it does, that's where it will be.

I did check this and found this diagram. It looks like there's a spot for the ssd right there, it has the keys, but there is no small black bracket to snap the ssd into
@Kevroll By "keys", I'm guessing you mean the solder pads where a connector would be soldered onto the board, is that right?
In theory it should be possible to buy that connector and solder (or have it soldered) it onto the board. Problems are, a) finding the right connector to buy, and b) whether the BIOS supports it on your model.
I hope this will answer your questions.
It also depends on the region your laptop falls in, check on the models below cause there are some which support ssd M 2's and those with NMVe's but the ram its fixed onboard you can not upgrade.

Kevroll post a couple of good images of where you are seeing this "looks like there's a spot for the ssd right there, it has the keys, but there is no small black bracket to snap the ssd" That way we can see what you see. Adding images to an existing question
