    The models you posted are older small cards that aren't  necessary for your laptop and are being phased out by bigger cards by most  manufactures like Samsung. You can add just about any m.2 SSD card up to 2TB including the Samsung 970s & 980s NVME cards. Their top speed should be about 2-3 time faster than m.2 SATA cards allowed by your mainboard PCIe bus.

    Who are "they"? They are using a very old specsheet with m.2 cards that were supplied in some models when they were first released. Bigger drives were more costly back then so they used 128 and 256. Howeverr laptop model should be able easily handle up to 2TB with no issues. Bigger drives are much cheaper now. I suggest that the following 1TB WesternDigital Blues series NVME would be perfect for your machine at a very reasonable price.
