    Yes it is.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    The port is M.2 PCIe NVMe, which supports M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs and M.2 2280 SATA SSDs. The maximum tested size is 256GB, but there isn't a storage size limitation on the port, so you can have 2TB SSD if you want to.

    @ven98 and what about ram?
    i want to install 8Gb Ram (2400Mhz). Any Suggestion for me before i installed.

    I assume you already have only 8GB, as you didn't mention how much RAM you currently have.

    The device has 2 RAM slots each supporting up to 16GB DDR4 2400MHz for a total of 32GB.

    That means you can add another 8GB 2400MHz module.

    Make sure that the 8GB module that you are planning to get has the same CAS latency(CL) as the one inside the laptop. You can use CPUZ or HWiNFO to find what the CL of the RAM is.
