Hi,
I want to upgrade my system memory(RAM) to 16GB and add new 250GB SSD along with existing 1TB HDD.
Can you suggest me RAM and SSD compatible with my system.
Share me products link or names.
I use my system for development.

Here is the Service Manual which you should find useful:
This model is very hard to service. The memory and M.2 slots are on the backside of the motherboard so you have to remove it to add an M.2 (gumstick) SSD and to upgrade memory. This is frankly beyond the skill of all but pretty experienced laptop techs. See p. 81.
So the compatible M.2 gumstick SSD would be a SATA type
And you need DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM and the max is 2 x 8 = 16 gb.
So amazon.com is apparently not shiipping right now in India due to COVID-19 but the abover link is what you need.
Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.

The specs of your machine is

1. RAM: You can upgrade to 16GB (max) using compatible RAM, for example
https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr3/ct2kit102464bf160b/ct6926635
2. Storage: Machine does not have spare slot for adding SSD. You can replace existing 1TB HDD to faster 2.5" SSD drive (1TB or 2TB). SSD's are cheaper now and there are many around from Crucial, Samsung, Toshiba, Hitachi, Seagate, Western Digital/SanDisk ...
