Hello All 

I recently acquired this system and i wanted to know what upgrade options are available. this seems to be a decent unit with a little life left, i wanted to replace the hdd with a sata or ssd. i was also thinking about the memory options but i dont know maximum, this unit has the Ryzen 5 cpu with 8gb ram...please advise

Hi:

In order for anyone to answer your question, you would have to provide the full model number or product number of your notebook.

Hi:

Your notebook can  support up to 2 x 8 GB of DDR4-3200 CL22 memory and you can replace the M.2 2280 NVMe SSD with a larger capacity of your choosing.

Theoretically there is no limit to the storage capacity of the drive you can install as long as it is single sided so that it fits in the SSD slot.

Your notebook's SSD slot is PCIe Gen 3.0.

A Gen 4.0 SSD will work fine, but it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds from the gen 3 slot.

Below is the link to the service manual:

If you want to see if your notebook can support more than 2 x 8 GB of memory, you can run this command in Windows Powershell as administrator:
