Windows 10 has already native AHCI drivers for SSDs to work.

You back Optimize Drive which runs TRIM command on your SSD, install Intel RST driver (if your notebook has Intel processor) from your HP support page, and also update SSD firmware from SSD manufacturer site.

Optimize Drive, option 1: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/8933-optimize-defrag-drives-windows-10-a.html

Ensure enable TRIM, step 4:
