A 2.5-inch SATA drive is the easiest upgrade for an older machine: the mechanical hard drive comes out and the SSD goes into the same bay, and nothing else is needed. Kingston's A400 and ADATA's Ultimate SU650 are basic models for light use, while the KC600 and Samsung's 870 EVO stand up to heavier write loads. The range also includes M.2 drives, so check your machine's interface before choosing.
