Can you let me know if I'm able to upgrade the RAM and SSD on the HP Spectre x360 13-ae20ca?

Firstly, I think your machine is an  HP Spectre x360 13-ae020ca, not HP Spectre x360 13-ae20ca. Its specs

 

       https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c05811152

 

It has   8 GB LPDDR3-1600 SDRAM (onboard) RAM that means upgrade RAM is out of question.

 

For storage, it has 256 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD and no room to add 2.5" HDD/SSD therefore you have to REPLACE existing M.2 SSD with a larger (capacity) using the following parts

 

    2-TB, M.2 2280/DS, SATA-3, PCIe, NVMe, solid-state drive with TLC part # L04986-001
    1-TB, M.2 2280/DS, SATA-3, PCIe, NVMe, solid-state drive with TLC part # 941878-001
   512-GB, M.2 2280/DS, SATA-3, PCIe, NVMe, solid-state drive with TLC part # 941881-001
   360-GB, M.2 2280/DS, SATA-3, PCIe, NVMe, solid-state drive with TLC part # 941880-001

 

I can also use Samsung 970 EVO M.2 SSD's, they are a bit cheaper.

 

Regards.

Thank you Banhien. I typed the wrong model (I forgot a zero), as you said, the correct one is: "HP Specter x360 13-ae020ca".

 

Thank you.
