@Sterry0,

 

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

 

The answer to your question is going to be biased no matter who you ask.  However, for raw power, performance and reliability -and without having to call your banker, I personally would pick the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe 2.0c - M.2 Internal SSD with p/n: MZ-V9P2T0B/AM (1TB version: MZ-V9P1T0B/AM), which sports blistering sequential read/write speeds up to 7,450 and 6,900 MB/s respectively for your HP ENVY 17t-cr0000 CTO (6M7N3AV).

 

[EDIT:] However, on second thought, given the fact that the aforementioned product has gotten quite a bit of customer flak because of drive degradation issues -probably because they didn't/couldn't add a heatsink to it even though Samsung advertises this M.2 NVMe drive with its "Smart Thermal Control" -it apparently still runs (very) hot, I would seriously consider the Western Digital WD BLACK SN850X 1TB NVMe Internal Gaming SSD Solid State Drive (p/n: WDS100T2X0E), Gen4 PCIe, M.2 2280, with up to 7,300 MB/s Read and up to 6,350 MB/s Write speeds. The 2TB model's p/n: WDS100T2X0E.

 

Hope this was helpful.

 

Kind Regards,
