Hi:
You have two options:
You can replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SSD
You can install a M.2 SATA SSD and use the 2.5" drive for storage or remove the 2.5" drive.
NVMe M.2 SSD's are not supported in the 15-bsxxx model series.
If you choose the second option and use the 2.5" drive for storage, you will need to remove Windows from the 2.5" drive, or the notebook will always want to boot from the 2.5" drive and not the SSD.
