Notebook HP OMEN – 17-w100ng
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Does my laptop (Notebook HP OMEN - 17-w100ng) support DDR4-2666 memory (PC4-21300) if not the largest one I can use, and does it support PCIe x4 NVMe disks.

I have no idea what you bought so I cant guarantee will work. But normally the system will simply down clock the memory to what it wants, yes.

 

Its compatible with both NVMe and Sata.

 

Here is your manual that will help explain this ... http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05260118

Hello @West001 

 

1. No, it supports DDR4 2133Mhz ram, up to 16GB (2x8GB). But some users have reported successful installs of 32GB.

 

2. Yes it can support PCIe x4 NVMe M.2 drives (not disks). According to your specs page, you already have both an HDD and a 128GB NVMe drive installed now. Is this not correct?

1. But if I buy DDR4-2666Mhz memory, it will run as 2133Mhz or it won't boot on my laptop.

 

2. Yes, but the ssd drive instaled on m.2 is SATA III not NVMe
