Replacing/upgrading hdd is a piece of cake, best thing to do is remove it when new, without ever using it, put in an SSD or 7200rpm drive and fresh install, throw on all new drivers (download from mancufacturers page) then you can swap out for the old drive if ever you want to sell it or return it, or just slap the drive in your ps4/ps3
As for the laptop itself, the CPU is a bit on the weak side, bearing in mind that 3ghz is the turbocore speed, unless youre doing heavy use it'll sit around 1.8ghz, i would look for something quad core personally.

This is roughly $200 more, but it has the following advantages

CPU : 1.8ghz - 3ghz dual core to 2.5ghz - 3.5ghz quad core
DISPLAY : 1366x768 led to 1920x1080 lcd
Warranty : 1 year limited to 2 year manufacturers global warranty

Just my 0.02$ of course.
At the bottom of that laptop page you can customize the loadout too, if the only thing you change is the SSD to a 1tb 7200rpm mechanical hdd, its the same as the one i linked above but faster hdd, for $1 more, or just leave it as is and pay the $50 extra for a 256gb ssd.
