I have Intel Corporation SSDPEKKW256G7 256GB SSD in my laptop. I want to add another 256GB to it. Is it possible?

If possible, which gen of PCIe and slot should I buy? Will 2 ssd running will create pressure on my laptop/motherboard?

If not possible, then what type of SSD (what to say to the retailer) can I exchange my current ssd for? Will a 512GB ssd create pressure on my laptop/motherboard?

Here's the output of sudo lspci -vv | grep -E 'PCI bridge|LnkCap'
