Can I upgrade the SSD in this laptop? If I do will it cause problems with UEFI or secure boot?

Thanks for the quick reply. I have a 1TB Team Group T-FORCE CARDEA ZERO Z330 on order which has very close R/W speed specs although it does have lower IOPS specs. I do have another computer I can use it in just in case it doesn't work out. I found another forum that had this question on it and they also said it could be done but I wanted to get a second opinion, Thanks again.
