All I do on this is web browsing and retro gaming with emulators and old pc games.

      If it’s really old and uses an magnetic ‘spinning rust’ style hard drive it probably doesn’t have an m2 slot connector so you’d want a “SATA ssd” as opposed to a newer “m2” style. For $100 or less you can get up to 500GB size as long as you stick to the less prestige brands. 256gb is another option though you only save about $20-$30.

      Don’t buy anything yet until you can get someone here to look at that error code and make a diagnosis as you don’t want to spend good money after bad on something that might not fix the problem.
