Welcome to the Dell Community @gunum
Yes 1TB WDB SSD will work just fine.
32GB memory is max.

hi thanks for the link.
I confused, some said incompatible, others said compatible, for RAM issue.
however, is it better use 1 existing ram module, and another is new one?
will 32GB RAM bring significant better performance ? or just more bring heat rather than performance

@gunum
16GB will show some performance increase.
Unless you are rendering video, using CAD/CAM or a heavy gamer 32GB will not be noticeable!!!
It is always best to use matching pairs of memory.
You would increase performance by taking advantage of "Dual Channel" with matching pairs of memory.
