Yes, you can upgrade the hard drive to a solid state hard drive with a SATA connection. (No M.2 drives are in this laptop.) Doing so will give you the biggest boost in performance over replacing the RAM in most cases. You can indeed replace the RAM, it has 2 sockets which are both occupied by 8gb sticks currently. You will need to buy 16gb sticks to upgrade this laptop.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes you can upgrade to a SSD. it does have a M.2 port and it is NVME. so you can either install a Sata SSD and remove the 1tb HDD or install a M.2 SSD and use that for a boot up and you HDD as storage, im actually typing this on this laptop with the org 1tb HDD and a 512gb M.2 NVME SSD. the M.2 port is located just in the corner of the laptops motherboard. you will see a small black screw that is not holding anything, right next to the battery and just south of the ram slots. that little open plug is your M.2 port. I upload a picture.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Service manual shows a slot for NVMe/SATA M.2 drive under the SATA HD.
