Hello,

I hope you could answer a question for me, I'd really appreciate it. I have a Dell Inspiron 7000 (7378) laptop, which has an Intel Core i7-7500U CPU and a SanDisk X400 M.2 2280 SATA III 256GB SSD. When I bought this laptop, back in 2017, the only available storage versions for this laptop's model were 128/256/512 GB.

I am planning to buy a WD Blue 3D NAND 1TB Internal SSD - SATA III 6Gb/s M.2 2280 Solid State Drive, but I don't know if my laptop can support 1TB of storage and I can't find information about it. I wouldn't like to spend money and then realize that it is not compatible. What do you think about it? I mean, is it possible that certain laptops may have a storage limit? Even if the SSD fits correctly (appropriate size and type).

Beforehand, I thank you a lot for your answers and opinions.
