Yes. Here is the Service Manual:

 

Manual

 

You can just replace the hard drive with the 2.5 inch SATA SSD you ask about. 

 

See p. 24-30 for "how to". 

 

You can clean load Windows 10 onto it with a free Microsoft download, you can clone or you can do a factory HP recovery onto the new SSD. 

 

Max RAM is 16 gigs (2 x 8 gig DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM). 

 

Post back with any questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.
