Its specs
https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c04852767
You can replace its 750GB 5400RPM hard drive with a standard 2.5" HDD or SSD for example
- HDD: https://cplonline.com.au/storage/laptop-hard-drive.html
- SSD: https://www.samsung.com/au/memory-storage/sata-ssd/870-evo-4tb-sata-3-2-5-ssd-mz-77e4t0bw/ faster but more expensive
Regards.

HP normally uses Seagate drives. They are fine buy 5400RPM is slow, it is much better to use 7200RPM drives with bigger cache. For example
