Any major brand of M.2 2280 NVME would be fine. Your laptop supports only Gen 3 speed. While you can install a Gen 4 drive, it will run only at Gen 3 speed.
Whenever touching components or working inside a computer, wear a grounded wrist strap, also called anti-static wrist strap, ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet. It's a cheap and sensible precaution. Rest the laptop on an anti-static mat or at least a reasonable alternative such as corrugated cardboard. (Repeatedly touching a metal case part is not sufficient mitigation with modern components.)
