Good Evening All,

I Have Bought Nitro 7 - AN715-51-73AX - Laptop With Specs:
Processor - Intel Core i7-9750H
Graphics  - NVIDIA GeForce - GTX 1660ti with 6GB
Memory   - 8 GB DDR4 Memory - (2667 Mhz)
Storage   - 512GB PCIe M.2 NVMe SSD

So Far Happy With Everything, But Would Like To Upgrade It On Its MAX.
Therefore Would Like To Know:

1.) Whats The MAX Capacity I Can Install On Both - PCIe M.2 NVMe Slots?
Would It Handle 2TB? 1TB? In Each Slot? - (And Are There Any Recommendation Which Would Be The Best PCIe M.2 NVMe SSD's Out There To Install On This Laptop?).

2.) Whats The MAX Capacity 2.5 - HDD And SSD Its Able To Take?
(And Which Brands Of 2,5 - SSD's Could Recommend?).

3.) Whats The MAX RAM Capacity You Can Put In, Is It - 64GB Or 32GB?
(Recently Ordered - HyperX Impact DDR4  -32 GB (Kit 2 x 16 GB), 2666 MHz CL15 SODIMM XMP - So Hope That I Did The Right Choice).

Would Be Great To Get Answers On All These Questions!
And I Believe That This Information Would Be Useful To Other Users Too, If They Ever Decide To Upgrade This Laptop.

Thanks,

    That This Laptop Can Have - SSD - up to 2000GB Or HDD up to 1000GB.
    RAM up to 32GB.
    But Would Like To Get This Confirmation From Acer Community! :)

    Slightly different but I have an AN715-51-796C and I recall seeing 32GB as max for RAM.

    SSD should be whatever size you can find (for m.2, it is probably 2TB).  For HDD, not sure. I know when I swapped my 500GB SSD into mine, it just fit...I do not know if you could fit a 9.5mm drive or not.  That said, you should be able to fit a 2TB SSD in that spot.  I did read in another thread that on some systems Acer only tested up to 512GB in the m.2 slots but I cannot see any reason why larger would not work.

    Pretty sure if I maxed out my system, I would have three 2TB SSD's (two m.2's and a 2.5" SATA SSD).  Really though, I will probably keep the two 500GB drives I have and add a larger one once prices come down.  My current decision revolves around whether or not I want to upgrade to 16GB or 32GB of RAM.
