There's nothing you can do, except replace the drive with a larger one, but that won't give you much more speed, only a little, because larger M.2 NVMe drives are faster.
You can use software to disable background programs in Windows and disable programs that start with Windows. Do not disable Windows Defender or anything related to Realtek audio.
