Hi there, just topic say, I looking for update to SSD disks and I just wondering if my notebook is compatible with 1 TB storage.

I did read into manual specs what say 500 GB, but I ask if it possible to install one of 1 TB of storage.

 

Thanks for reading.

Your machine has Single storage option which does NOT have M.2 slot for storage therefore Samsung 860 EVO M.2 2280 SATA 3 of 1 TB won't fit to 2.5" slot without more hardware.

 

The simplest and much cheaper upgrade to get SAME result is to replace existing 1TB 5400RPM hard drive with 1TB or 2TB 2.5" SSD. Samsung 860 EVO is the right choice.
