How many SSD slots this Motherboard have?

[Michirel]

Hello. Hope you are all okay.
I'll be fast with this: recently, I bought this computer (HP 14-DQ5029LA). Its motherboard model is a HP 8A1F. I wanted to ask if someone knows how many ssd slots it has and its maximum capacity. I don't want to open the laptop because I don't want to have any accidents in the middle of it.
Thank you for your time and hope you have a nice day.

Hi:

I'm doing fine, and I hope you are as well.

Your notebook has support for one M.2 NVMe SSD.

If you need more storage, you will have to remove the 256 GB NVMe SSD and replace it with one having a greater storage capacity.

You should be able to install up to a 4 TB NVMe SSD as long as the drive is single-sided.

HP only has the service manual for the original 14-dq0xxx model series, but it should be of help to you for opening up the notebook to install a larger capacity drive if you want.

I'm glad that you're fine!

Also, thank you very much for answering to my question. I'll keep an eye to which SSD's I can upgrade it to. 

Have a nice day!

Also, it's not kind of related, but I would like to ask:

Do you know if the memory RAM Hiksemi Armor DDR4 3200 MHZ -8GB could be compatible with this laptop?

You're very welcome.

As long as the memory you selected is CL22 it should work.

Most folks usually use Crucial memory.

Note that your notebook comes configured with 2 x 4 GB of memory and not 1 x 8 GB.

You have a nice day too!
