Your computer can do that, just uninstall a bunch of the crap that is probably slowing things down as you perceive it

Yeah this computer seems completely fine to run any/all poker applications. The processor is a bit on the lower end but still seems good. Maybe get someone who is more knowledgeable to remote in to your computer and check the specs as you play (when it seems to not perform up to snuff).

Replacing parts in a laptop can be challenging/expensive if you don't know what you are doing, things are really crammed into that small volume, desktops are much easier.

No, just have your OS + PT4 incl. database on the SSD, the other drive doesn't matter. If your SSD is filled over 80%, replace with a bigger one.
