SSD Upgrade

[Franman-450]

Hi!  I have a HP laptop - 17z-cp000 .  The specs are:

• Windows 11 Home
• AMD Athlon™ Gold 3150U (2.4 GHz, up to 3.3 GHz, 4 MB L3 cache, 2 cores) + AMD Radeon™ Graphics
• 8 GB DDR4-2400 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB)
• 128 GB PCIe® NVMe™ TLC M.2 SSD

I really like to update the hard drive from 128 to 1 TB.   I did a websearch and thought that "M.2 PCIe Gen 3 SSD would work.  I installed and then 3 months later the computer crashed.  I removed the drive and reinstalled the drive 128 GB PCIe® NVMe™ TLC M.2 SSD and it's now working fine.  Is there an SSD that will work?

Thanks!

As you can see, it WORKed for 3 months. What is 1TB M.2 SSD ? People use Samsung 970 EVO plus or Crucial P3 without any problem. I'm myself using Samsung 970 EVO Plus,

Thanks for the reply and my apologies the SSD I purchased is - "Silicon Power 512GB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 SSD."  I will definately look at both the Samsung and Crucial.
