What is your REAL question RAM (Memory) or Storage (HDD/SSD) ? The specs of your machine is

I will reply both RAM and STORAGE

 

1. RAM: It has  4 GB DDR4-2400 SDRAM (1 x 4 GB) now. You can upgrade to

 

   (a)  8GB: add same existing 4GB to slot 2 or using the following compatible RAM

                    https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct4g4sfs824a/ct18770316

   (b) 16GB: install 8GB each to both slots  using the following compatible RAM  (RAM will run at 2400MHz)

                    https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k8g26c16s4b/ct18770226

   (c) 32GB: you can also install 16GB each to both slots  using the following compatible RAM  (RAM will run at 2400MHz)

                   https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k16g26c16s4b/ct18770217

 

               Increasing RAM on your machine will definitely make it run faster

 

2. STORAGE: Your machine has 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA now, you can add M.2 NVMe SSD to your machine using

 

               https://www.samsung.com/au/memory-storage/970-evo-nvme-m2-ssd/MZ-V7E2T0BW/
               https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p2-ssd
               https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p5-ssd
      Or similar from reputable vendors.
                 One example (compatible drive, can use smaller/larger capacity)
