I need advice deciding on which new laptop or pc to purchase (full time artist)

Hello! I had a surfacepro6 laptop for many years and it recently died. I liked that it was portable and I could draw on the screen. My budget for a new computer is $1500.

This time around I want something stronger than can run blender and music making software smoothly because I want to learn 3d modeling and animation. I don’t think I need a full on gaming pc. I’m trying to decide whether to get another portable laptop or a pc with a monitor. I do like being able to draw anywhere but i’m not sure if i want an ipad with procreate because i’m used to using clip studio paint and windows. I have used tablets without screens a long time ago but i’m not sure if i want the extra equipment of getting a separate drawing tablet. I’m mostly a traditional artist with lineart and then i color digitally, and I got used to being able to draw directly on my computer.

There’s an overwhelming amount of info and ai written slop articles out there when I look up good laptops for artists! Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks so much :)

Upgrade to SSD?

I have an oldddd Acer Aspire 3, it was my favorite laptop ever and still is, I've already updated it as much as I can and it still runs albeit EXTREMELY slowly and the disk is almost always at 100% i dont really know anything about computers so please excuse my lack of knowledge but ive seen other people suggest replacing the HDD with an SSD ? I do have an HDD currently and it has 466gb storage only 100gb being used currently, nothing is wrong with it really aside from the very very slow response time and frequent app crashing. i have a newer HP laptop but the storage is abysmal and i find myself coming back to my Acer so I'll do anything I can to save it tbh. my question is how would i even go about getting an SSD into it? would i lose everything i have? i feel like a complete idiot when it comes to these things lol.
