HP Pavilion 17.3 inch Gaming Laptop PC 17-cd2000 (2P0M9AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hi,
I would like to ask if I am able to upgrade my laptop (HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 17-cd2002nc)
Product number: 53M13EA#BCM

It has 
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR4 @ 1599MHz (22-22-22-52)
and
953GB NVMe MTFDHBA1T0TDV-1AZ1AABHA (Unknown (SSD))

The thing is that I want to upgrade it. I found out that I can put 32GB Dual-Channél RAM
and that I can also buy a fitting SSD with much more space.

I'm not certainly sure if it would be able to run with the components or if they can even fit. Rn. I have the 200W power supply.

The RAM sticks I have in mind are: Memory 16GB DDR4-RAM 3200MHz (PC4-25600) from Crucial for HP Pavilion Gaming 17-cd2000
Regarding the new NVMe SSD, I'm not really sure if I should pick the 4TB one or the 2TB one.
- HP Pavilion Gaming 17-cd2000 PCIe NVMe SSD Crucial P3 4TB (M.2 22 x 80 mm)
- HP Pavilion Gaming 17-cd2000 PCIe NVMe SSD Samsung 990 EVO 2TB (M.2 22 x 80 mm)

There is also a vacant slot for one large SSD, but I'm not sure which one I should get, It should work with almost anything (I think at least)

Ill be thankful for any response.
