Samsung evo 970 plus compatibility with HP Omen 15-dc0010ca

[Alexbabo]

I am going to upgrade my SSD to Samsung 500GB 970 EVO Plus on my HP Omen 15-dc0010ca 

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1454173-REG/samsung_mz_v7s500b_am_500gb_970_evo_plus.html

Is it compatible with my HP Omen 15-dc0010ca ?

Or 500 gb ssd will cause some issues as in the manual it mentioned that I need 512gb ssd.

Manual ,page 8,table 1-2  : http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06219881

Should I get 512 gb instead 500 gb ssd?

Thank you

Its specs

It has  128 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD now. You have few options

(a) Replace 128GB with 512GB or 1TB or 2TB with a compatible drive using

                        https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p5-ssd

           Or similar from reputable vendors.
                        One example (compatible drive, can use smaller/larger capacity)

(b) Add 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD to your machine, for example (my Omen 15-dc.... machine which has dual storage option)

                     

But you need more parts. Your choice is a or b. From my view, b is cleaner but again you need more parts. I bought my machine which is a pre installed dual storage model/product.

Thank you for your reply.

I have dual storage preinstalled 128 SSD and 1TB HDD.

I just need more SSD for video editing.

So I thought that Samsung 500GB 970 EVO Plus would be good . ( Evo plus  It is faster than regular one ,or its'not compatible?)

I don't think I can install more than 512gb as manual says .

And does it matter 512 or 500 gb?
