HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion 17-ar050wm
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am possibly going to buy a used HP-17ar050wm. It has the standard features and hardware, from what I can see. I have 2 questions. 1. It has the standard 1TB 5400rpm SATA drive. I want to upgrade to a Firecuda 2TB SSHD. Will the machine have any problems with this upgrade? 2. You can never have enough RAM (I am a developer by profession and by hobby). The machine comes with the standard 8GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM. I want to upgrade to the fastest Corsair Vengence that this beast can handle. Do I have to stick with 2133 or can I go up to 2400, 2933,  or 3333, or 3600, or (preferred) 4600? Thanks in advance.
