SSD upgrade - not sure which spec of ssd is supported

[GauravBajpai]

Hello All,

I have a 128GB SSD and 1TB HDD. I want to upgrade to a 1TB SSD however being new the acronyms and technology; am not sure if a NVME or NVME M.2 - which one my laptop will support.

for reference I plan to purchase the under mentioned and would appreciate if someone can tell me:

1. what is the default SSD make installed

2. Would my laptop support the one from the link I am planning

3. compared to Brand & Speed of the default - would it be recommended to go ahead with my planned purchase in terms of overall performance

EDIT: checked the manual and it further confuses me as it says supported SSD till 256GB - then can I even upgrade to 1 TB with the above questions.. thanks!

"Hard drive Support for the following single hard drive and solid state drive configurations:
1 TB 7200 rpm, 9.5 mm hard drive
Support for the following dual-storage configurations:

Thanks,
