Basically title. Need to upgrade my storage for college courses and have seen some conflicting answers with this. I haven't been keeping up with SSD or HDD tech advancements since I bought this laptop so I'm not sure which products are compatible or not. I'll most likely swap both the drives with larger SSDs. Also how many storage slots are even available? gotta know so I don't have to tear it open and check

 

Currently running 256GB SSD for OS and 1TB for HDD

You can

 

1. Upgrade 256GB SSD to 2TB or 4TB using (or similar):

 

            https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/ssd-970-evo-nvme-m2-500gb-mz-...

 

2. Due to thickness limit, you can upgrade 1TB to 2TB 2.5" HDD. If using SSD, you can upgrade to  4TB
