The specs of your machine is

 

            https://support.hp.com/my-en/document/c06309350

 

Two (2) things you can upgrade (less cost):

 

  • RAM : It has  4 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM (1 x 4 GB) now. RAM is very cheap now you can upgrade to 16GB using https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct2k8g4sfs824a/ct14881922  (RAM will run at 2133MHz) 
  • STORAGE: It has Intel Core processor only therefore it supports dual storage. It has a slow 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA now therefore you can add M.2 SATA SSD to your machine and move C: to M.2 SSD. For example (1TB or 2TB)
