Hi I think my hard drive is about to fail but I was hoping to replace with a solid state drive, 

is this possible and secondly can I have a small Solid State Drive for boot and operating system and then install an additional hard disk for storage?

 

if so what type of SSd can I put in I see there are multiple types these days 

 

Thanks

Its specs

      https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06047309

 

It has  Ryzen processor namely AMD Ryzen™ 5 2500U Quad-Core (2 GHz base frequency, up to 3.6 GHz burst frequency, 6 MB cache) therefore it supports dual storage with M.2 NVMe/SATA drive + 2.5" HDD.

 

It has 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA now, you can add an M.2 SSD drive to your machine.

 

Regards.
