Hi,

Max RAM is 16GB of DDR3L 1600 MHz RAM (2x8GB)

There are two slots and at the moment you have one 8GB module. So you can add an 8GB module in the empty slot.

You can purchase RAM from your preferred brand such as Crucial, Samsung...

On page 116 of the service manual, you can see the steps to replace the RAM which is not so easy in your notebook as you need to remove the system board to get to the slots.

Yes, you can replace the Hard Drive with a 2.5" SATA3 SSD such as the 2.5" Samsung 860 Evo or similar. On page 105 of the service manual, you can see how to replace the drive. You will need to install the OS either by using recovery disks, migrating an image or using Microsoft media you can download:

Hope it helps,
