Boot your machine

Start Task Manager as soon as possible

Click on Disk

See what is the app clogging your hard disk (Microsoft) at startup

Go Task Scheduler - Microsoft - Windows - find out the app and right click it for: DISABLE

You can have only one internal hard drive, so the SSD will need to replace the hard drive.  If you want to use the hard drive, it'd need to go into a caddy adapter and replace the DVD drive.

DDR-1600 RAM is 800 MHz;  that's normal.  It's what double data rate means.

Does the system correctly identify the AC adapter or it it showing "unknown"?  F2 at powerup to check.

You might also run a full hard drive diagnostic (F12 at powerup).
