Looking to Upgrade

So I recently purchased the Razer Blade 15 2020 Advanced model and had a few questions about upgrading the SSD and RAM.

Will the unit support a 2TB hard drive? I am currently looking at the Samsung - 970 EVO Plus 2TB Internal PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) Solid State Drive for Laptops with V-NAND Technology. Just want to make sure it is supported/compatible. I know that I will need to clone my current drive and swap it out.

I was hoping to also upgrade the RAM but that isn't as important to me as the hard drive space. Does the model I have only support up to 32GB or can it do 64GB?

While I have done a little bit of research for the hard drives I don't really know what the "best brands" or best types of RAM are so any advice or feedback on that is also appreciated. I can probably get away with the 16GB that comes with this model, but figured if I was going to crack it open for the hard drive, I'd explore any other upgrades that I might think about later on.

Thank you for your help.

You can't go wrong with Samsung EVO plus 970, I already have 1 TB but planning on getting a 2 TB in the future as games now are really hogging drive space.
Several here have had issues with Crucial Ballistix RAM, but good luck with Kingston HyperX 3200: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BGLKD4M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
