Welcome
I own a hp laptop and I want to update some internal parts such as the hard drive
Laptop specifications:
HP ProBook 450 G3 ProBook PC
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Version
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6500U CPU @ 2.50GHz
8GB Samsung 1600MHz
System board:
8101 KBC Version 40.73

The first question is what type of hard drive is in the m.2 port and does it receive or compatible with an NVME hard drive ?

The second question is what is the highest capacity of an m.2 hard drive that is allowed to be entered or received by the device ?

The third question, is it possible to replace the HDD that is mainly in the device with a STAT SSD 2.5
What is the highest capacity that the device receives or is allowed of this type ?

  1. If available, the M.2 slot supports SATA only, not NVMe.
  2. Size (capacity) is huge but due to its physical size, it supports 2280 M.2 format up to 2TB (some vendors may have 4TB but I don't know who)
  3. Yes, you can replace 2.5" SATA HDD with a standard 2.5" SATA SSD such as
