What 500gb M.2 ssd upgrade is available that is both compatible and able to boot the os directly from the m.2 ssd memory.... Please i leave in Nigeria and would be ordering from overseas as the market here is tough. Specific details would be greatly helpful

@LegendarySanin,

I am responding on behalf of @Jeet_singh as he is out for the day. It is great to have you back and your patience is greatly appreciated.

You can go ahead and install it and I am positive that the SSD should work fine. However, make sure that the form factor of the SSD is as per the space available on the computer.

Disclaimer: HP Doesn't recommend any upgrade/downgrade of any hardware parts or software that is bundled with the product. It may affect the manufacturer's warranty and performance. You can change the configuration at your own risk.

Hope that answers your question.

Good day! Take care 🙂

Please explain the form factor you talked about

@LegendarySanin,

It is great to have you back and your patience is greatly appreciated.

Form factor means the physical dimensions of the SSD. You can find the details about the SSD in the service guide shared in the earlier post.

Hope that answers your question.

Good day! Take care 🙂

Cheers!
