in the ssd that you intend to buy you put only the windows os and the specific application
or program that you want to run up faster - not everything

data dont put into ssd put into hdd

so leave ssd only for os and prgrams that you want to load fast and process faster eg like
rendering (some works some wont too)

upgrade RAM to minimum of 8gb. as u can add more workload and more history to be undo or add more things.

ssd is used for load windows, open/run software and saving/exporting files.

i put m2 ssd into my laptop for software and windows. anyhow i still export normal files into hdd. if the files are heavy then export to the ssd.

Some laptops allow this as they have multiple slots. Check if your laptop model supports.

Otherwise, if your laptop has optical disc, you might want to buy those hdd caddy (or whatever they're called) and switch it out with your optical drive.

Based on the spec you can replace your existing 2.5" HDD to a 2.5" SSD drive OR you can buy a HDD caddy that will replace your optical disc bay and you can put another 2.5" SSD there instead. You can google "HDD caddy".
