hp pavilion x360 m3-u103dx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to upgrade my hp pavilion x360 m3-u103dx  hard drive and RAM.   My hp pavilion x360  Model:   m3-u103dx -  Currently has 1  8 GB of RAM (I think I found it has two slots - not certain)  and currently has  128GB  Memory Hard drive.   

 

I would like to upgrade the ram and need to know how many slots and max capacity of each slot?    Can I  upgrade to two 16 GB RAM (32GB total?)

 

I also want to upgrade the hard drive and want to know what options I have and how to tell if they are compatible with my model.  Can I go up to a 1 TB hard drive?

Here is the Service Manual:

There are two memory slots and your model uses DDR4-2133 SO-DIMM. The stated maximum is 2 x 8 = 16 gigs, but 2 x 16 = 32 will work. Memory upgrade requires removal of the motherboard. See pp. 58-59.

 

There is only one place for storage. It can have a 2.5 inch drive or, with an adapter board in lieu of the hard drive it can have a SATA type M.2 SSD. Your laptop has a 128 gig SATA M.2 installed in that way. See p. 45; you have the solid state bracket in place. So yes you could replace your 128 gig SATA M.2 with a larger capacity version.
