@OmenUser6,

 

Your notebook comes with two M.2 slots.

 

You can keep the current boot drive in the primary slot and install a new NVMe drive in the secondary M.2 slot for data storage.

 

Of course, you can replace the boot drive with a new NVMe, as you planned.

 

Your service manual (on page 2) states HP offers 2 TB NVMe SSDs gen4x4, so you should be able to install a 1TB or 2 TB NVMe without problems.

Maintenance and Service Guide

 

Pages 37-39 of the manual indicate NVMe SSDs need to be in the thermal enclosure. You need to buy a single-sided NVMe that doesn't come with a heat sink attached to the drive.

 

See this thread and click the link to the video Resistencia posted. It may be of help to you.
