What are the complete computer specs, including hard drives (how many, what kind, what is on each, what capacity, and how full)?

If NVIDIA graphics, make sure to use the latest Studio Driver from NVIDIA (NOT the Game Driver).

The graphics card is nvidia quadro p520

If your laptop has an extra slot for M.2, you add it and set it as a cache disk.

how do I do that ?

Without exact system info and details about your project, render settings, settings for caches and multiframe rendering and so on we can't really tell you much. That said, the old rule applies: You can't kill AE with hardware. Many things are barely multithreaded, there is also not much in the way of GPU acceleration and overall a lot of things simply work linearly, making things slow.
