I have 16 GB of optane memory and a SSD drive and my question is with the 16 GB of optane memory can I upgrade the hard drive with a slower speed SSD drive and still get all the fast benfits of a faster SSD drive with optane memory installed on my system or do I still need a fast SSD for boot up and program start up speed.

The specs of your machine is

 

             https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06450024

 

It has   256 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD. Why you need Optane ? It does not have spare M.2 slot for you to install Optane anyway. Existing drive is equal or faster than Optane.
