Dell Latitude E6430 - RAM and Storage

I know it's too many questions but please help me :D I will really appreciate it, feel free to ask for any other info needed.

It's motherboard is an 0H3MT5 A00

RAM ----------

1.- What's the highest RAM frequency (Mhz) supported?

2.- Is it correct that the RAM form factor is SO-DIMM 204-pin?

3.- Can I upgrade both RAM slots or is one of them soldered into the motherboard?

4.- Is it a Dual channel so I look for Dual kit?

5.- Is there anything else I should look for?

STORAGE ----------

1.- How do I know which SSD are compatible?

2.- What physical size?

3.- Can I put a PCIe SSD on it?

4.- Can I put an M.2 on it?

5.- Would it support NVMe?

 

Thank you very much in advance!

Below is information about your computer. You cannot upgrade the Ram Slots.

Memory Module Connector 2 DIMM slots
Memory Module Capacity 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, 8GB
Memory Type DDR3 1333 MHz or 1600MHz
Min to Max Memory 2GB to 16GB*
A NOTE indicates important information that helps you make better use of your computer. NOTE: The computer supports up to the maximum of 16GB memory; however, a 32-bit operating systems, such as the 32-bit version of Microsoft® Windows® XP, can only use a maximum of 4GB of address space. Moreover, certain components within the computer require address space in the 4GB range. Any address space reserved for these components cannot be used by computer memory; therefore, the amount of memory available to a 32-bit operating system is less than 4GB. Greater than 4GB memory requires 64-bit operating systems.

2.  DDR3/3L.

3.  Both replaceable;  16 G max total.

4. Yes.

5.  Look for tested-compatible RAM -- Crucial, Kingston, etc.

You'll have to ask your seller about the compatibility of specific RAM you're considering.
