Hi:

 

According to chapter 1, bottom of page 4 of the service manual, your notebook's M.2 slot supports SATA M.2 SSD's.

You should be able to install a SATA M.2 SSD in a storage capacity that meets your needs and budget.

You're very welcome. 

 

The drive capacities listed in the service manual are just what HP offered in the model series, not the maximum capacity supported. 

 

If you want to install a larger capacity M.2 SSD, that should be fine.
