I enjoy my laptop, everything functions smoothly and it generally offers excellent performance. The specifications are:
MSI GE75 Raider 2020
CPU: Intel Core i7 10750H
RAM: 32 GB DDR4
GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 super mobile
Hard Drives: 512 GB SSD NVMe + 1 TB 5400 rpm
The issue is that the 1 TB 5400 rpm is causing slow loading times. Could there be a reason for choosing this speed? What would be the ideal use for this storage capacity? For me, 1 TB is sufficient, perhaps I was planning to save some PDFs there—it should work fine.

Random storage options available including pdf, video, docs, etc. Or, consider a 2.5" format SATA III SSD.

These laptops with 5400rpm hard drives are designed for lightweight performance, not speed. I recommend swapping it for a 2.5" SSD and using the HDD as an external backup. A SATA SSD would offer about four times faster sequential access and roughly forty times quicker random reads.
