I recently purchased a new HP laptop and I wanted to upgrade the M.2 drive but I am unaware what the max compatable size is, any help to find the max size would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

 

This is a series of many laptops which

 

Supports all 7mm/9.5mm, SATA 2.5" HDDs

Supports M.2 SATA Storage
Accelerometer / HDD protection support

Single HDD configurations
500GB (5400) 7.2mm
1TB (5400) 9.5mm
2TB (5400) 9.5mm

SSHD configurations
1TB 5400RPM 9.5mm SSHD w/8GB NANDM.2 SATA-3 SSD

M.2 SATA configurations (Value)
128GB
256GB

 

HDD+SSD configurations
1TB (5400) 9.5mm HDD + 128GB M.2 SATA-3 SSD (Value)

 

M.2 SATA-3 SSD can be larger (capacity), it is safe to use 1TB.

 

Note: Machines with Single HDD configurations may NOT have M.2 slot.

 

Regards.

BH
