Hello
I have a acer brand laptop, with this specifications.
Acer Aspire 5
A515-51-563W
Intel Core i5-7200U 2.5GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz.
I was planning to upgrade my RAM and storage, but i don't
know how much I can put on the laptop.
Some post and forums say that I can introduce a RAM with a
speed of 2400 Mhz, others that support RAM with a speed of 2666 Mhz.
I looked at the crucial official page, and looking at the
model of my laptop, it shows me that it can support RAM with speed ...
either 2400 or 2666Mhz speed.

I am not a professional laptop hardware expert, but as far
as I know, when upgrading a memory RAM, you should enter or update your memory
ram and put another one that runs at the proper speed which the
microprocessor runs.
When I check at the command prompt and introduce:
wmic memorychip get speed
It shows me that the system works at 2133 Mhz.
I would like to know if ... by inserting a RAM memory with a higher frequency rate (either 2400Mhz or 2666Mhz) ... it would damage my laptop or the RAM memory I put in it.
And I would like to know if the laptop could recognize a hard drive with more capacity than 1 terabyte (Like 2 terabyte)
I hope you can help resolve my question.
Best regards, and have a nice day.
