What Gen SSD does this laptop have. I know it is an M.2 SSD, but there is no Generation associated with the Specifications page on HP Support. I want to make sure I get the right SSD. Thanks!

Your notebook's M.2 slot is PCIe Gen 3.0.

 

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

 

This chart shows the maximum transfer speeds from the various PCIe slot generations.
