According to the published Dell specs there is room for adding a laptop hard drive or full size SSD if you have the 3 cell battery. If you have the 6 cell there is no space.  If you have the 6 cell battery you could upgrade the SSD to a larger capacity model.

Storage
Your computer supports one of the following configurations:

• One 2.5-inch hard-disk drive

•One M.2 2230/2280 Solid-State Drive (SSD)

• One 2.5-inch hard-drive and one M.2 2230/2280 Solid-State Drive (SSD)

• One 2.5-inch hard-drive and one M.2 2230/2280 Intel Optane storage

The primary drive of your computer varies with the storage configuration. For computers with a M.2 drive, the M.2 drive is the primary drive

Table 10. Storage specifications
Form factor Interface type Capacity
One 2.5-inch hard-disk drive SATA AHCI, up to 6 Gbps Up to 2 TB
One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 NVMe + SATA3 AHCI, up to 32 Gbps
Up to 512 GB
One M.2 2230/2280 Intel Optane Storage PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 NVMe, up to 32 Gbps Up to 512 GB

No additional SSD but you could replace the existing SSD with a higher capacity SSD.   I did that in my Inspiron 15 5577 gaming laptop.  It came with a 256GB M.2 SSD and I replaced it with a 512 GB M.2 SSD.
