Good evening, I need to replace the hard disk on my laptop with a bigger and more performing one. Is it possible to install a m.2 sata 3 type ssd hard drive? My laptop is a hp 15-da0065nl. Thank you

You can replace the hard disk with a PCIe, NVMe, M.2 or a M.2, SATA-3 SSD.
My preference would be the PCIe, NVMe, M.2 since it has far lower access times than the SATA-3 type.
I am a volunteer forum member. If my suggestion helped you solve your issue, help others by marking that post as the accepted solution. Say thanks by clicking on the Yes button next to the "was this reply helpful?"

You have a couple of options depending on what your system currently has. Please read the upgrade options below
I do not know the seller nor but am just recommending what they write.
Your manual is here http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06691790.pdf
It states you can use 7.5mm or 9.5mm drives HDD or SDD and can also use an m.2 type SSD.
If your m.2 slot has optane memory I recommend you keep it and replace the existing 2.5 inch drive with larger one.
If your m.2 is your disk drive then a western digital blue m.2 of 1tb is a good replacement and WD has cloning software
@erico you beat me to it.
