Crucial 16GB 1x16GB DDR5 5600 CL46 SODIMM Laptop Memory PC5-44800
SanDisk Optimus 5100 2TB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4
The DRAM that came in it was SK Hynix 5600, but having mixed sticks has not been a problem for me. I've used it quite a bit on all 3 operating systems with no memory concerns.
The SSD was just whatever was available on eBay for a decent price, any NVMe will work. If you get a normal size 2280 drive you need to relocate the standoff because the included drive is a small 2230 drive (same size as the Steam Deck uses). Moving the standoff is pretty easy so you can accommodate either size NVMe SSD.
