Ok, your M.2 drive is a Micron gen4 NVMe SSD.

 

HP specs for 15-fb0000 indicate that your M.2 slot is gen3.

See the thread below where this person's Victus 16-e0xxx model came with a Samsung gen4 NVMe preinstalled in the gen3 M.2 slot.

Transfer Mode in the CrystalDiskInfo screenshot in his post shows 'PCIe 3.0x4|PCIe 4.0x4.'

 

Perhaps, HP did the same thing in your model: Micron gen4 NVMe in the gen3 M.2 slot.

 

You can install CrystalDiskInfo and verify the PCIe version of your M.2 slot (Most likely gen3).

@Yug_Sakariya,

 

Generally, M.2 NVMe SSDs have no capacity limit. 

 

You can install an NVMe SSD of up to 4 TB.

 

Your M.2 slot is PCIe gen 3. A gen4 NVMe will work but won't run at designed gen4 read/write speeds.

 

This HP video may be of help for M.2 drive upgrade.

Crucial, Samsung, Western Digital are reputable brands, making up to 4 TB gen3/gen4 NVMe SSDs.
