Hi there !


I have a HP Probook 450 G7 and WD SN520 series 256 GB has installed in it.


and I want replace it with Samsung 970 EVO M.2 NVMe.

But, just now, I have readed that HP have whitelist policy for hardware replacement.


So, I am very worrying that my Probook will reject the 970 EVO.

also, I want upgrade RAM.


it will be fine for my laptop ?

WD SN520 is also a M.2 NMVe SSD series. I know before 2015 HP had a whitelist for wifi cards. I heve not heard of a whitelist for storage.

 

I believe you can use

         https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p2-ssd
  Or similar from reputable vendors. Many members use Samsung 970 EVO series.

 

For RAM, you can upgrade to 16GB, 32GB or even 64GB (!) using
