HP Pavilion 595-p0096nl Desktop

Before buying an HP Pavilion 595-p0096nl Desktop I would like to know if it is possible to add another internal hard disk because the memory supplied as standard (1TB + 128GB) is insufficient for me.

Thank you

@giuliano53,

There are some terms your mixing, but the answer is YES.  See manual below.

Memory is called RAM. It is a module that is inserted into a RAM slot.

Storage capacity is Gigabytes, and is common to an SSD device and hard drive(s).

From your description,  are you using the  1 TB drive for data storage?

Thank you for your reply and for confirming that another hard disk can be installed.
Indeed, in the manual you have attached, an SSD disk and two hard disks are shown, considering that a hard disk is fitted as standard, it remains a free place for another.
I intend to mount a two TB hard drive to be used only for data storage such as the computer I use now (HP-p6375it).
