Hello, 

 

I have an:

“HP - Victus 15.6" Full HD Gaming Laptop - AMD Ryzen 5-7535HS - 8GB DDR5 Memory - AMD Radeon RX 6550M - 512GB SSD - Mica Silver“
which I would love to expand the space, without having a bulky external hard drive sitting outside of it. I more so want to expand it internally. (i know nothing abt computers but i did install an extra RAM so I feel i’m qualified enough haha) i wanted to know if i upgrade am i forced to replace the one I have that came with it and lose all my data on it? Or is there a space to add another. I also wanted to ask what exact type of expansion card I would need. Thank you!!

Yes, it is compatible. In fact, any M.2 NVMe disk is compatible with laptops.

The model is 15-fb2063dx. This model only has one drive bay, so if you want to upgrade, you must remove the previous drive and you can install any size you want: 1 TB, 2 TB, 4 TB, or more.

 

You can download the original operating system using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool.

Yes, of course, you can clone the disk. This allows you to avoid losing data, but you will need to purchase a USB adapter for NVME disks, put the new disk there, and then clone it.
