    Hi,
    You can install a M.2 NVMe SSD and the Kingston SSD in your link should work, you have to check the Maximum link width of your PCI Express Root Ports, if you find a value of 2x for one of the Ports, you can install M.2 NVMe SSD, I have used a NVMe SSD in a F5-573 but if you want to make sure, you can install HWiNFO64 program, run it, expand BUS, expand PCI Bus, highlight each PCI Express Root Ports and check their value in  the right pane, please read the links below for more information.

    @tony04 just wanna ask if you were able to install M.2 NVMe SSD in your laptop. How was it? We have the same unit. I want to upgrade mine too. 

    and also what kind of RAM is compatible with this laptop?

    @tony04 are you still using your F5-573G-57CZ?  Mine, is really laggy specially when im using google chrome. I only have few apps installed that i use for work but it gets really slow specially when it is more than 3 hrs open..Like it freeze or something. 

    By the way, will DRR4 2666 mhz RAM will work in this laptop? I cant find 2133 MHZ.  :'(
    I am planning to order these two for upgrade. I hope its compatible. i dont want to waste my money.  :/

    Thank for your response.

    Don't use DDR$-2133 use the DDR4-2666 SODIMM as all these will work and are compatible with the F5-573G-57CZ, the recommended RAM for the F5-573G-57CZ is either the DDR4-2400, DDR4-2666 or the DDR4-3200 SODIMM not the DDR-2133.
