I have an HP Elite Tower TP01-2147C tower desktop computer. It came with a 1TB hard drive and a 256 GB SSD. I want to replace the hard drive with greater capacity. I do not know if there is a capacity limit for the replacement drive. I have an 8TB and a 14TB and a 4TB drive. Will any of them be ok as long as the physical size fits the bay?

Welcome to our HP community forum!
In theory, there is no hard storage ceiling for your desktop for either M.2 NVMe SSD or a SATA III drives.
The 4TB and 8TB HDDs should work A-OK plug-and-play, the 14TB may work if your desktop has driver support to deal with storage indexing and such.
My suggestion: plug it in and try it out. No harm done: it will either work or it won't.
Kind Regards,
