HP Pavilion 15-b153cl
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm experiencing a really bad performance from my laptop HP Pavilion 15-b153cl, I decided to get an SSD hard-disk

My laptop doesn't originally have a DVD that I could replace with the SSD, that's why I decided to replace my HDD with the SSD, but I knew about the M.2 which's the SSD hard-disk chip, I want to know whether It's supported to be added beside my HDD or not, and which model is exactly compatible with my laptop board, thanks.

Machine does not have M.2 slot therefore only one option: replace HDD with 2.5" SATA-3 SSD. You can use M.2 SSD but what is the point, you NEED an adapter (or a case) from M.2 connector to SATA connector otherwise it won't physically fit.
