HP 15-RA008NIA

Hello, 

Thinking of speed, can I use - 1TB SSD drive on HP 15-ra008nia instead of 1-TB HDD?

Installed ram:  8G

System type: 64-bit operating system, x 64-based processor.

Windows 10 Pro

Version 1909.

SATA SSDs, NOT the new NVME SSDs, are the same "form factor" as laptop hard drives -- meaning, they are the same physical dimensions and use the same connectors.

 

So any SATA SSD is going to fit in the slot where the HDD currently fits.

 

Just realize you'll be paying a LOT for a 1 TB SSD, when compared to a 1TB HDD.
