Can I buy more storage to my laptop?

[Daniel_Harisi]

Hey.

I bought my laptop with a 256 GB SSD, and I barely have any storage left. I'm wondering, if I can buy another SSD for it or only a HDD. If I buy a 1 tb HDD, which kind should it be and is it a specific HDD that's made for my laptop, or can it be any kind, and where can I buy it from, if it's a specific one. When I buy it, do I have to open my laptop and put it in myself, or go to a store and let the experienced guy do it?

My unit: HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-cx0xxx

Thank you for the advice!

Do you know where i can find the HDD to my unit, and should I install it myself or let someone professional do it.
