My laptop currently is super slow and i want to change the HDD to an SSD. But I don't know which products will be good and compatible for this laptop. Can someone please help me upgrade my laptop? I want it to be faster and be able to play some minimum games

Hi Masuda,
You can use a M. 2 NVMe SSD up to 2TB but if you have a 2.5" HDD, you can use a 250GB as a boot drive and use the HDD for storage.

You have two choices. You can directly replace and clone the 2.5" HDD with just about any 2.5" SSD up to 2TB. Or you can add a m.2 SSD card also up to 2TB and keep the HDD for more storage capacity. Both choices will offer considerably higher speed disk performance than just about any HDD. WesternDigital has a very good selection of both 2.5" SSD and m.2 SSD cards are reasonable prices.

Very simple for your model. Remove 3 screws from cover on bottom and either remove/install m.2 card or replace 2.5" HDD on left.

Both NVME and SATA m.2 cards will fit and work fine. The NVME card may be faster than the SATA card but not 100% guaranteed.
