Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook:

 

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

 

The memory is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.

 

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

 

While a PCIe Gen 4.0 SSD will work, it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds from a Gen 3.0 SSD slot.

 

The Crucial SSD report for your notebook indicates they sell NVMe SSD's up to 4 TB.

Crucial has very good performing NVMe SSDs as does Samsung.
