The manual mentions a maximum of 1 TB, but it doesn't specify if it's a single drive or multiple drives. Using a 2 TB drive could work depending on the laptop's compatibility and how the system is configured.

Typically, these upper limits refer to the largest storage capacity available on the laptop at launch or the standard drive size mentioned in the original documentation.

Probable, though certainty remains unattainable.

Consider a reliable SSD with PCIe Gen 3x4 support. Prioritize durability over speed for your laptop.

those spec lists only usually describe what the manufacturer makes available, or what was available at the time the design was made. for SSD's there is no reason to assume it would be locked to a max size. now if it were to talk about cpu compatibility, and the list -for example- excludes all core i3 and below sku's of that generation, it would be safest to assume the bios doesnt contain the necessary microcode. but to my understanding there's no such requirement for PCIe devices.
