Hello @Anadyn 

 

That series of the Omen 15-ax series was only comptible with only up to 16GB of memory. There were reports by some users that they had problems with getting 32GB recognized and other issues.

The Crucial Memory Finder also only recommends 16GB.   https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP---Compaq/hp-omen-15-ax200nw

I would advise you to stay with that. I cant guarantee 32 will work and if it doesn't, you may or may not get refund by the MFG if so.

 

There is no capacity limit on drives. You can also upgrade the HDD to SSD, yes.

The manual only shows what capacity HP shipped the units with.
