Hi:

 

Your notebook has two memory slots and can support 2 x 16 GB of DDR4-3200 memory.

 

See chapter 1 of the service manual (the first one listed) for the memory upgrade information:

Thanks for the answer, is also possible to insert more than one internal SSD and whether it has to have certain specifications?

You're very welcome.

 

Your PC only has support for one M.2 NVMe SSD.

 

The PCIe slot is Gen 3.0.

 

A Gen 4.0 SSD will work, but it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds.

 

This table provides the maximum transfer speeds the various PCIe slot generations provide:

Thanks again. I want to increase my RAM, i was considering a Crucial RAM Kit 32gb (2x16) DDR4 3200 or a Corsair Vengenance RAM kit 32gb (2x16) DDR4 3200. Do you have any advice?

You're very welcome.

 

Any memory you install should be CL22.

 

The Crucial DDR4-3200 memory is CL22, and if the Corsair memory is CL22, that should also work.

The Vegeance one is C22, it can create problems or even is not at all compatible?

If it's DDR4-3200 CL22, it should work fine.
