The specs of your machine is

1. RAM: It has 8 GB DDR4-2933 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) now, you can upgrade to

          (a) 16GB: add same 8GB to slot 2 or using compatible RAM

          (b) 32GB: install 2x16GB using the following compatible RAM (will run at 2933MHz)

                    or      https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct2k16g4sfra32a/ct19644012

          (c) 64GB (max) : install 2x32GB using the following compatible RAM (will run at 2933MHz)

                               https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct32g4sfd832a/ct19643987

 

2. STORAGE: You can install 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD unfortunately you need more parts:

  • The hard drive cable is available using spare part number L56898-001
  • The hard drive brackets are not available as a spare part  (this is the killer).

Upgrading its existing

 
512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD to 1TB or 2TB is easier.

 

Regards.
