Depends on the exact model. The earlier dv6000-dv6499 with AMD does not even have a true SATA interface so SSDs are not a good idea. If its Intel that model series is SATA I and an SSD will provide improvement but not as much as more current laptops. There is no capacity limit of a storage drive connected through a true SATA port.
