Old laptop does not support 500GB SSD, or it's just an old manual?

I wanted to upgrade an old laptop with a 500GB SSD and I looked into the manual and it says... supports only 180GB, 160GB and 128GB.

 

The laptop is HP ProBook 6750B (old).

This is the manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03565466.pdf

 

thanks

I'm not sure but probably the software is making it only support 180Gb 160GB and 128GB

This service manual only shows what the service providers have officially. The interface is SATA and therefore any SATA SSD will work.

Daily Driver: Asus ROG Flow X13 - 5900HS/3050 Ti

Primary Desktop: NCase M1 - 5800X3D/RX 6950XT

Travel PC: Fractal Terra - 5800X/RTX 3060 Ti

I have too many computers. List here.

The 500GB SSD should work fine.

that's the drives it was available with from new, you can whack whatever drive in there and it'll work just fine.
