Hi:

HP only has the service manual for the older 15-ef0xxx model series on your notebook's user guides page.

HP 15.6 inch Laptop PC 15-e2000 IDS Base Model - Setup and User Guides | HP® Support

According to chapter 1 of that manual, the model series supports 2 x 8 GB of DDR4-3200 memory.

If you want to install more than 2 x 8 GB of memory, you can run this command to see if that would be possible:

1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.

This will open the command prompt.

2. After the command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and hit enter.

There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.

The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.

The service manual indicates that HP offered NVMe SSD's up to 512 GB in the model series.

You can probably install a larger capacity drive if you want as long as it is single sided.

The Crucial SSD report for your notebook's model series indicates that they sell NVMe SSD's up to 4 TB in storage capacity.
