Thanks for sharing :)

I have no clue about the HDD model. I guess I'll find out when I replace it xD the HDD has been reliable, it's just unbearably slow.

I saw the HDD light blinking when opening webpages, I'll give the SSD a go to see if the laptop can become somewhat usable. It'll only be intermittently used anyway, so I'd rather not buy a new one. (To save a bit of money and a lot of E-waste)

Ssds are super cheap nowadays. It's a 2.5 in SATA drive and you can get ssds in that form factor.

TEAMGROUP AX2 512GB 3D NAND TLC 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal Solid State Drive SSD (Read Speed up to 540 MB/s) Compatible with Laptop & PC Desktop T253A3512G0C101 https://a.co/d/0QzmGB0

Edit: I'm dumb. You can just search it with lshw for the model of the hdd you have.
