What is the best "Fastest" 4TB SSD upgrade for the HP Zbook Power G10 15.6 (Core i7). 

Maybe something that isn't on the compatible lists? Thanks

Adding to that. Would Gen5 work??

[Nick_readinguk]

would this one work?

WD_BLACK SN850X 4TB M.2 2280 Game Drive PCIe Gen4 NVMe up to 7300 MB/s

Chapter 1 of the service manual indicates that PCIe 4x4 NVMe SSD's up to 4 TB were offered in the model series.

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

So, the WD_BLACK SN850X 4TB M.2 2280 Game Drive PCIe Gen4 NVMe should work fine.

I don't know of any HP notebook on the market today that will run a PCIe Gen 5.0 SSD at its maximum advertised read/write speeds.

Brilliant thanks..

So i guess the even cheaper one i just found would also run??

Lexar NM790 4TB SSD, M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4x4 NVMe 1.4 Internal SSD, Up to 7400MB/s Read, Up to 6500MB/s Write

You're very welcome.

Any brand NVMe 4 x 4 SSD should work.

I looked up Crucial, but they only supply a 2 TB model in that speed range.

The Samsung 990 drives are good but are pretty costly:
