There is no maximum for a SATA HDD or SSD. However, the biggest capacity commonly found in the market is 2 TB. I have seen 4 TB but generally only sold on specialty sites and cost a fortune. 

 

You could actually install 32 gigs of memory but very rarely is an upgrade from 16 gb to 32 gb necessary or cost effective. 16 gb is a lot of memory. At a minimum I would try the SSD first and I bet you will be happy with that performance improvement. 

 

Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.
