You can replace the 128 GB NVMe SSD with one having a greater storage capacity.

 

BUT...you need to check to see if your notebook will support a M.2 2280 NVMe SSD because the 128 GB drive that HP installed is one of those much smaller M.2 2230 NVMe SSD's, so you need to make sure that you can either move the standoff to where a 2280 SSD would go, or buy a larger capacity  M.2 2230 NVMe SSD, such as the one below:

 

Crucial P310 SSD 1TB M.2 2230 NVMe PCIe Gen4 Internal SSD, Up to 7,100 MB/s, Compatible with Steam D...

 

Below is the link to the service manual:
