Hi,

Yes, the notebook will support an M2 PCIe NVMe SSD of your desired brand. Something like the Samsung 970 Evo Plus would be great.

On page 43 of service manual you can see the steps to install the drive

But i was told by this community that only SATA SSD is supported it has costed me INR 11,000 (around  $150). Please confirm it to me, after checking the model number of my notebook and its motherboard.
