Product: Hp Envy 15t
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My laptop configuration is 

HP ENVY 15t Quad TouchSmart

• 4th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4700MQ Processor
• NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) GT 740M Graphics with 2048MB of dedicated video memory
• 15.6-inch diagonal Full HD BrightView LED-backlit Display (1920x1080)
• 16GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
• 1TB 5400 rpm Hard Drive

Is it possible to add SSD inaddition to the HDD that i already have with this model(appreciate if you can provide a link to any video tutorial for reference to install the SSD) ? I would like to keep the HDD just for storing data backup keeping my SSD for OS and my day to day files.

 

Is there any limitation on how much SSD capacity/storage that this laptop can support ? 

Also, i noticed different types of SSD like 2.5"/M2.SATA/MSATA, can this model support any of this?

 

TIA

You should see if your laptop has an EPCIe slot or not. The is the best way to upgrade your laptop and make it fly otherwise you can upgrade by using any M2 SSD drive and plug it into the same slot or if you got an addition SATA slot use that one..the 1T HD 5400 RPM is slow as hell...You will see a huge different in boot and response time when its upgrade to either M2 SSD or M.2 NVME (super fast)!
