Can I upgrade optical drive to ssd

[ChethanM]

Tell me If I can upgrade SSD to core i3 processor with 2ghz.... Then what should be the SSD type and speed

Yes you can place a 2.5 inch SATA SSD in an adapter that will replace your optical (DVD) drive but for reasons I can go into if you wish I do not recommend that, particularly if you are doing it to speed up your notebook. It would not do that.

Then can you just help me what would be the other way. Since to speed up the things I have upgraded with extra 8gb ram. Even though it lacks in time. So I thought of upgrading it to SSD may run smoother. I have reset many times my laptop making sure that it runs smoother.

please help overcoming this problem.

No question an SSD is the way to go. This is the Service Manual.

With rear cover removed it looks as so:

M.2 slot in red circle

The place circled in red is a slot for a SATA M.2 SSD. Like this:

Install the SATA M.2 SSD and you will have to move the Windows install over to it. Several ways to do that which we can help with if needed.
