Ok.
What is the problem you are having?
The SSD is compatible with the motherboard.
Create a Cloud recovery flash drive. You will need the pc's serial number to do that. See the link beloiw

Once you have created the recovery flash drive, disconnect the original HDD and install the SSD. Plug the SATA connector into the new SSD.
Boot to the SSD in BIOS. That will be the Esc key then boot options on powering up. Choose the flash drive and let it boot up. Answer the questions the installer asks, say yes to the permissions requested and install Windows 10.
