Is it possible to upgrade my hard drive from a traditional drive to a solid state drive

CyberPunk37 · ‎12-16-2020

I want to find out if it is possibble to upgrade my hard drive to a solid state drive. My PC is ok, it is just running really slow and I have tried many different solutions to speed it up, but have so far been unsuccessful. I also want to increase the level of storage on my laptop and was thinking I could upgrade to a SSD at the same time if my system can accept it. If anyone can let me know if it is possible to upgrade to an SSD, I'd appreciate the help.

Yes, you can upgrade 2.5" SATA HDD to 2.5" SATA SSD, same capacity or larger. That is one simplest way to speed up your machine.

Yes it is possible, any laptop with SATA HDD could upgrade into SATA SSD.

i think your hp unit comes with M.2 Slot. You can make use of by installing M.2 SDD and retaining iyong HDD for storage space.
