Hello, I have Lenovo ideapad s145, with core i3 (10th gen) processor, 4 GB of RAM, 1 TB HDD (5000 rpm), and Windows 10. When I run File Explorer it takes 6 seconds to open program, and 31 seconds to open word document. Is this issue common for all HDDs?
Thank you in advance.
 
Solution
How long does the system take to boot to OS after the power button is pressed? Also, how many partitions does the HDD have? That laptop can accept an NVMe or SATA based M.2 SSD, that should help alleviate the sluggishness of the OS/apps.

Windows boot takes 31 seconds after I press the power button. I have only one partition.
I know that SSD will speed up my laptop, but I think I don't have permission to open the laptop for 1 year because it will cause a loss of warranty.
