@Longshanks72,

 

 You should have no problems to upgrade to a 512 GB M.2 NVMe SSD. Your service manual (page 2) indicates a 1 TB M.2 NVMe is offered.

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

 

You can get an M.2 NVMe SSD gen 3x4 2280, something like this.

amazon.com/dp/B09HKG6SDF/ref=twister_B0CH1KHXTK?_encoding=UTF8&th=1

 

Your service manual (page 33) describes how to install/replace M.2 NVMe drives.
