Hello, i want to upgrade my internal hard drive. which way do i go? Is HDD better than SSD? can i have 2 hard drives, is there room for it?  i only have 128 Gb SSD SAMSUNG MZNLN128HAHQ-000H1. the system is taking up about half the storage and i dont like the idea of keeping a bunch of external drives around. Please advise on whats a better way to upgrade my storage. thank you!!!

The series does support dual storage options. Your machine has SAMSUNG MZNLN128HAHQ-000H1 that means it has M.2 SATA SSD and you have 2 options

 

(a) Upgrade it to a larger (capacity) M.2 SATA SSD  using       
          https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-mx500-ssd
          https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/product/consumer/860evo/
    Or similar from reputable vendors.
          One example

                https://www.crucial.com/ssd/mx500/ct1000mx500ssd4/ct12541131

 

(b) Add 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD to your machine using

          https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-mx500-ssd
          https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/product/consumer/860evo/
    Or similar from reputable vendors.
          One example

                    https://www.crucial.com/ssd/mx500/ct1000mx500ssd1/ct12541147

     BUT you need 2 more parts

             The hard drive cable is available using spare part number L21894-001

             The hard drive rubber sleeve is available using spare part number L20103-001
