Can I add an SSD to my Hp Pavilion 15 cc561st, if it has a dedicated slot on it, like M.2. Slot to add extra SSD without removing my old HDD? To use both at the same time.

Ow thank you very much sir.

And if I add 128Gb ssd to it, how fast would that make my computer, especially while running huge softwares like Matlab and ANSYS.?

I mean, is it worth it to try, considering the cash I am going to spend while buying the new SSD?
