    Hi, you can add 2,5` HDD/SSD up to 2TB and additional M2 PCIe or SATA SDD up to 1TB,
    Ram is upgradeble up to 32gb (2x16gb) up to 3200MHz https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-5-4600h
    You can replace the wifi card as well but you have to find compatible with your model.
    P.S. Hum I told you that it will be faster but seems that nobody had an answer for you till now...

    Yes you can add M2 NVMe  as it is the controller, PCIe is the connection.

    batmalin, is there 2 available slots on this MB for m.2 memory?
    currently has 250gb, can I add a additional 500gb?

    Hi,

    Can I upgrade my laptop with a 16 gb 3200 MHz RAM? I mean, I will use 8 GB and 16 GB at the same time.

  • @Emir0723 What is the exact model? Example an515-44.
