So, I recently bought this Victus by HP Laptop 16-d0064nc. I bought NVme SSD 2TB Renegade Fury, but write speed reach maximum of 3300 mb/s, I place it to second storage. Will it be good for 1st slot? I heard 2Tb Ssd are not compatible

Hi:
Below is the link to the service manual.
Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)
HP offers PCIe Gen 4.0 NVMe SSD's in the model series and I suspect that the secondary slot is only PCIe Gen 3.0, which would explain why the drive you installed is not running anywhere near its advertised read/write speeds.
On some notebooks the slot speed is labeled on the motherboard.
The manual does not provide any info regarding the PCIe version of the slots, but HP wouldn't be offering PCIe 4 x 4 drives if the primary memory slot was only PCIe Gen 3.0.
So yes, I would bet that the 2 TB drive you bought will run near its advertised speeds in the primary SSD slot.
