Hi,

The notebook supports only M2 SATA3 SSDs such as the M2 Samsung 860 Evo or similar. YOu can get of your desired capacity.

So, it will not support PCIe NVMe such as the 960 Evo.

The SATA SSD will still be much faster than the regular Hard Drive.

On page 45 of service manual you can see how to upgrade the drive.

The screw size is 2x3mm

Example:

Hope it helps,

David
