Hello @AhmedZ 

 

What is your goal specifically? Your specs show you have 16GB of ram already and that is plenty for gaming. If you have other requirements beyond that, it will hold up to 32 GB (2x16). You need to match the timings to ensure compatability for dual channel configuration though. HPs manual shows only 16 GB compatibility, but thats only what they ship them out with.

Here is an example of compatible ram... https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP---Compaq/hp-omen-15-%28models-15-dc0000---d...

 

The M.2 port will hold either Sata or NVMe so its compatible either way. There is no capacity limit.

Yours shipped with only a 1TB HDD. You should open the case and make sure the M.2 port is installed. Sometimes, HP ships those laptops out without the M.2 port if that drive was not installed.

 

Here is your manual that explains everything you will want to know. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06219881

Hi Photoray002

 

I use my laptop for virtulization and some times i run many VMs.

I have 256GB NVME and the 1TB HDD.Looking to upgrade both of them as the VMs require storage power.

In a few months my Omen will be one year old ,i will be checking the prices to pick the disks.

 

Thank you Photoray002

Very good then. You can change the drive and add memory now, it wont void the warranty. But if you have to send the laptop back for warranty repairs, you must put the old hardware back in the computer first.

Use a tool like CPUz or Speccy to see the current timings before adding new ram.

 

Good luck.

Oh , didn't know about having to send the laptop with the original hardware in case of warranty repair.

Thanks for the valiable info.
