Hi:

 

Your notebook only supports SATA SSD's not NVMe.

 

Only the models with the Ryzen processors support NVMe SSD's.

 

I don't know what storage capacity you are wanting to upgrade to, but I recommend the WD Blue SATA SSD series.

 

That drive has the best performance for the price, in my opinion.

 

This is the 500 GB model for example...

 

Amazon.com: Western Digital 500GB WD Blue 3D NAND Internal PC SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, M.2 2280, Up to...

 

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the SSD removal and replacement procedure.
