Hi:

Your notebook's M.2 slot supports SATA SSD's only, not NVMe.

Below is the link to the service manual.  Chapter 1 has the supported drive types.

This 500 GB model would provide the best performance for the price, in my opinion.

It also comes in a 250 GB size...

It also comes in a 1 TB size, but that is pretty expensive.

sir in the manual its written as maximum combination of ssd with sata hdd is 256gb ssd + 1tb hdd kindly clarify

Hi:

Those are just the drive sized offered by HP for the model series.

If you want to install a larger capacity SSD such as 500 GB or 1 TB, that would be fine.

sir i want to install an m.2 ssd of 500gb as i am already having 1tb sata hdd running in the laptop so whether its possible or it will only support 256gb m.2 ssd as per manual.

Hi:

As I stated yesterday, that will be fine.

The drive capacities are just what HP offered in the model series.

They are not the maximum drive capacities supported.

You're very welcome.

Yes, that one would be perfect.

You may also want to consider this model that I posted the other day, which provides slightly better performance, has the same warranty, and costs 400 Rs less.
