Probably 2 sticks of 16G. That should be plenty for ordinary tasks. Everyone's workload is different. It lists no secondary storage installed. But one place says "512GB" (surely NVMe). The text is just above the array of rectangles, one for each choice. "Size: NAB6 Lite-32GB+512GB" It does look as if you could add a 2.5" HDD. I bet that 2G is about the limit (larger 2.5" HDDs are a bit thicker; they don't fit in most bays). Amazon's great: if it isn't right, you can easily return it.
