Greetings!
Your HP Pavilion 15 cc129tx laptop, as per http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06525445.pdf, is fitted with a Gen3 x4 M.2 NVMe SSD slot.
Meaning, you could use Gen4 or even Gen5 M.2 NVMe SSDs (as shown here, for example: https://www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp---compaq/pavilion-15-cc129tx), but anything beyond 3rd gen M.2 drives will only run at Gen3 write/read speeds on your laptop.
In my experience, the best M.2 drive upgrade for laptops like yours would be to purchase a quality Gen3 M.2 drive, such as made by Samsung, Crucial, Western Digital, or Kingston -as your budget would allow.
Hope this was helpful.
Kind Regards,
