Do not try to mine on a laptop if you want it to be alive in the future. You could do it but it is not a good idea. Best of luck.

Thank you for your input, but why is that? As I stated, I am not necessarily looking to make a profit, just looking to learn from the experience. I unfortunately cannot afford to build a desktop for this purpose at the moment.

Because laptop hardware are cramped into smaller space, that makes them prone to overheat and easier to fail. There are not enough ventilation except either a side or back heat sink and some bottom heat mesh.

Solid state drive is to store to data over long period of time which is pretty unrelated when it comes to mining. Mining either uses graphic cards (GPU) or CPU. Having a badass hard drive doesn't help if your GPU and CPU are weak.
