What is your HP Pavilion Power Laptop 15-cb0xx  ? For example

 

         HP Pavilion Power - 15-cb035wm

 

Your machine is not the same but very similar therefore I will use above machine to answer your question

 

1. RAM:  It supports 16GB max. You are saying your machine already has 16GB you can't upgrade RAM

 

2. STORAGE: The above machine has 1 TB 7200 rpm SATA. You can add M.2 NVMe SSD to it using

                https://www.samsung.com/au/memory-storage/970-evo-nvme-m2-ssd/MZ-V7E2T0BW/

                https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p2-ssd

                https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p5-ssd

         Or similar from reputable vendors.
                  One example (compatible drive, can use smaller/larger capacity)
                             https://www.crucial.com/ssd/p5/ct1000p5ssd8/ct18146921

 

You can also upgrade existing 2.5" HDD to 2.5" SSD using standard 2.5" SSD for laptops/notebooks, for example

                             https://www.crucial.com/ssd/mx500/ct1000mx500ssd1/ct11525618

   

Regards.
