HP Spectre x360 Convertible Laptop - 13-ae052nr6530
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I need to replace the SSD on my HP Spectre x360 Convertible Laptop - 13-ae052nr and would appreciate any input on the best SSD to use for this and the replacement procedure.  My understanding is that it shipped with a 512 GB PCIe® Gen 3 NVMe™ M.2 SSD. I'm considering also upgrading to a 1 or 2 TB drive. Has anyone done anything like this, what drive did you use, and did you run into any issues

which shows it has  512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD. Yes, you can upgrade to 1TB or 2TB. For exaple

Actually the number is very high but due to physical single sided 2280 format therefore vendors can only squeeze that much. I know some vendors now have 4TB products but too early to try.
