I would like to upgrade my OEM drive with an SSD drive, so I need to find out what SSD is compatible. Do I need to know more detail with the model number? It seems that 'p0xx' doesn't really narrow down the search parameters enough. Thanks for your help!

You're very welcome, David.

You stated that you wanted to upgrade the OEM hard drive to a solid state drive.
You can do that in one of two ways...
1. Replace the existing 3.5" drive with a 2.5" SSD. You will need some kind of adapter to mount the 2.5" drive into the 3.5"bay.
They make many different designs of 3.5" to 2.5" hard drive adapters so find one that would make the best fit.
2. The other option is to install a M.2 NVMe solid state drive in the available M.2 slot as was mentioned in this post.

With this method, you may be able to use the 2 TB hard drive for storage.
