The laptop supports two SSDs, - see p.32 → p.33, however 1 M.2 slot is a PCIe 3 x 4 (Gen.3) and the other is a PCIe 4 x 4 (Gen.4), so if you get Gen.4 PCIe SSDs then it will work in both slots as it is backward compatible with Gen.3 but will work at Gen.3 speeds if it is inserted in the Gen.3 slot.

At the moment Gen.4 SSD are more expensive as compared to Gen 3 SSD e.g. 1TB Gen 3 SSD = ~$US85, 512GB Gen 4 SSD = ~$US75. so this may decide which version to get
