Hi, I am using HP ENVY x360 - 15m-dr0011dx laptop. My pc is running out of space as it has only 256 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 Solid State Drive internal storage.
Can you give me the best solution to add more space? I would love to have around 500 GB more.
Is it possible to add internal storage to my laptop? If, so what is your recommendation?
And, how much will be the costing?
//Thanks

I don't know why yours is running out of space -- as I have laptop with only a 120GB SSD and it has plenty of space.
Here are some things you can do to recover some of the disk space:

Also, the community Win10 Forums has the following suggestions:

Finally, there is a freeware app known as Wise Disk Cleaner. I use it every day to get rid of junk files: https://www.wisecleaner.com/wise-disk-cleaner.html

@WAWood
Thank you for you suggestions. I've already applied some of the tips.
But I actually need some additional storages because I do require to install some big software.
Is this possible to add internal storage to my laptop.

As far as I know, no -- as I believe there is only one SSD slot and you already have it in use.
