I want to use two slots together for ssd. What should be the max storage capacity? 

Thank you in advance for your interest.

Your notebook has support for one 2.5" drive and one M.2 NVMe SSD.

It does not have two NVMe SSD slots.

The PCIe slot generation is 3.0.

A Gen 4.0 SSD will work but it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds from the Gen 3 slot.

Theoretically, the sky's the limit as far as NVMe storage capacity as long as the drive is single-sided so that it fits in the slot.

The Crucial SSD report for your notebook's mode series shows that they sell NVMe SSD's up to 4 TB in storage capacity.

HP only has the service manual for the older 15-da0xxx/1xxx model series available:

Can I use 2tb 5400 sata3 ssd with 1tb m2? Thank you in advance for your interest.

You're very welcome.

You can use the 2 TB SATA drive for storage only.

You can't have Windows on the 2.5" drive or it will only want to boot from that drive first and not the NVMe SSD.

I asked the question again in detail to make my question clearer and more understandable. Because in your answer, when I use TWO slots, the capacities that I can install in each were not written. I apologize if I am disturbing you. My aim is to reach clear data. Best regards...

My product's warranty period has recently expired and I cannot get support from HP. I do not have the luxury of throwing away this laptop I bought from HP 4 years ago and buying a new one. For this, I need to update. My laptop has "256GB M.2 PCIe Gen3 NVMe SSD (3600-3250Mb/s) TLC 3DNAND" and "500GB 5400rpm HDD" installed together and they are working. But these are not enough now. How much capacity can I increase these two drives to? Thank you in advance for your support.

You're very welcome.

Did you look at the Crucial memory SSD report I posted the other day?

It tells you how much memory and how large a capacity 2.5" drive and M.2 NVMe SSD you can install.

The 2.5" drives start on page 2 of the drives report.

Of course they are listing 2.5" SSD's but if you just want to install a 2.5" mechanical hard drive that is what you can install.

I looked at the Crucial memory SSD report you gave me the other day. The same report also said that my system supports 64GB RAM. However, when I entered the CMD command "wmic memphysical get maxcapacity" on my laptop, I saw that it supports 32GB RAM. This caused me to be suspicious of Crucial data.

Looking at that data, will I be able to install a 2GB SSD or HDD in the Sata III slot and a 1GB TLC 3DNAND 2280 SSD in the NVMe PCIe M2 slot and run both of them together without any problems? Can this be guaranteed?

However, in any case, it is intolerable for a brand like HP not to provide the end user with definitive documents regarding its products. HP also created a detailed update and service pdf for its products between da0000nt and da1999nt. But why is there no update and service pdf for the da2009nt?

Regarding the relevancy of the service manual...I spoke with HP regarding the service manual situation and I was informed that for the consumer class notebooks such as yours, they only issue a service manual for the original model production.

That is why there isn't and never will be a service manual for the 15-da2000 model series or the 15-da3000 model series.

Regarding the Crucial info...you can either go with what they are indicating or you can go with the drive capacities HP listed in chapter 1 of the 15-da0xxx/1xxx service manual or somewhere in-between.

You are asking me to provide information that no one can answer with 100% certainty because there are no discussions on this forum where anyone has installed such large capacity drives in an inexpensive model series.

As I wrote the other day, a 2 TB 2.5" drive should work and a NVMe SSD of any capacity should work as long as the drive is single sided.
