Why would you put that drive into your computer?

You should be installing an SSD drive.

I understand your point, I already have Internal SSD of 500gb. Considering your point If I am to install 

Crucial BX500 480GB 3D NAND SATA 6.35 cm (2.5-inch) SSD (CT480BX500SSD1)

Would that be compatible with my laptop? as I am purchasing on amazon and it would be difficult to return if this is not compatible.
