Hi:

The product specs for your notebook indicate that it comes with a 1 TB 5,400 RPM hard drive.

What I suggest you do is to replace the mechanical hard drive with a better performing 2.5" solid state drive (SSD).

If you don't need 1 TB of storage, a 500 GB SSD is reasonably priced.

Below is the link to the service manual where you can find the hard drive removal and replacement procedure.

The service manual also indicates that your notebook has a M.2 slot that supports SATA or NVMe M.2 solid state drives.

Instead of replacing the 2.5" drive, you may want to remove the dead hard drive, and install a NVMe SSD instead.

You may need to buy a hold down screw for the M.2 SSD if there isn't one present.
