I've noticed that my computer's disk usage is always at 100% according to Task Manager, which seems to be bottlenecking performance. I'm experiencing some lag and want to upgrade to an SSD to boost speed instead of sticking with an HDD. What's a good and affordable SSD option to consider? Also, are there any tips I should keep in mind when installing the SSD?

Choosing the right SSD really depends on what your computer can accommodate. First, check if you have a secondary drive to add one or if you're replacing the existing drive. You’ll need to find out if you have an M.2 NVMe slot, a standard 2.5" SATA slot, or something else. Once you know what's compatible, any SSD you pick will significantly outperform an HDD.
Upgrading to an SSD is a fantastic idea! It dramatically improves loading times compared to a hard drive. If your computer supports NVMe, you should check out the Hynix P41. It's a high-performance Gen 4 SSD that's currently on sale! Here are some links where you can find it. If your system supports NVMe but doesn't have an M.2 slot, you can grab a PCIe adapter pretty cheap.
What are your PC specs? Knowing the components can help recommend the best SSD for you.
