As the unit has a 750GB drive fitted I would assume one could possibly go up to 2tb maybe 3tb depending on your finances. The drive is a SATA drive. The only limitation would be the memory addressing necessary to support these large drives. It should be able to partition the drive down to a recognisable size after instalation. Information for this is available at HP via this link:

https://support.hp.com/gb-en/product/details/hp-touchsmart-iq840-desktop-pc-series/3942780

They do not specify the maximum size of drive that can be fitted only what they are prepared to supply. This device has now been discontinued so little support will be forthcoming for this.

Hope that helps.
