Upgrading PowerEdge T340 Raid Controller

I currently have a PowerEdge T340 with H730P raid controller but I'm running Windows Server 2019. I need to upgrade the HDDs and I want to configure RAID as well but I need the controller to be compatible with WS2019. 

Which RAID controller is compatible with this hardware/WS2019 and would this HDD work for the new setup?:

Are there any other new components I need to purchase in order to complete this upgrade?

All the components you mentioned are compatible. I recommend to update all component firmware before performing upgrade.
