Hi,
Don’t know if this will improve the performance or not but depending on the speed of the HDD you could try using Win 10’s readyboost feature and see if that helps at all.
If you’re going to install an SSD don’t bother with readyboost as it was designed to help improve performance with slower HDDs (<7200 rpm) when the HDD would act as extra RAM when there wasn’t enough physical RAM installed.
The laptop has a card reader so you could try inserting a 4GB SD card as extra “RAM” and if it does improve performance, leaving it permanently in there, as it is would be unobtrusive and out of the way.
Of course then you’ve lost the card reader function to use for anything else, if you need it quickly.
You could also use a USB flashdrive instead of a SD card, but I think that it would physically get in the way if left in, but it may be “faster” than a SD card depending on the SD card specs and the card reader specs
Worth a try at least
