I did go through the Product specifications of your notebook and found that  the hard drive installed on your PC is 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA

After this, I did go through the Maintenance and Service guide of your notebook and found few things which should help you in narrow down the issue.

Here you the list of configurations which are compatible and tested on your PC.

There is a M.2 Slot available for SSD on your PC.

Here's the list of configurations which are available: 

go to chapter 3. Illustrated Parts catalog and item number 6. It's for Solid-state drive, M.2 page number 18.
