HP Envy Curved 34-A051
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Looking for advice,

My HP Envy Curved 34-A051 SSD (128gb Samsung) is full and the computer is starting to freeze and lock and become unusable.  I've done as much housekeeping as possible and moved many folders to the 😧 drive, but I need to bite the bullet and replace the SSD.
I have seen some posts where people have upgraded with a Samsung 850 but had issues with new SSD being reognized even after BIOS upgrades.

I'm asking if anyone has successfully upgraded one of these desktops and if so what SSD did you use and what problems you encountered

I've cloned the system drive and am happy to open up the PC, but want minimum faffing with the actual hardware upgrade.

Thanks.
