2TB SSD or 2-4TB HDD + 16GB 3200Mhz ram
You have an Acer Nitro AN515-52 correct?
Web search seems to suggest that it does have an M.2 slot supporting SATA and NVME (limited to 2 lanes instead of 4 but that's of little importance) in addition to the 2.5" HDD bay. Additionally I doubt you can fit a 4TB HDD into that laptop or any laptop really, the 2.5" ones that I know are all over 10mm or more in height (they're designed only for servers) and that won't fit. Further if I'm reading the specs right you need to stick to 7mm if you want to fit an M.2 at the same time.
Using a HDD as your boot drive for Windows 10 is never going to be good even with more RAM. After double checking that your laptop has a compatible M.2 slot for yourself you should probably purchase a 1TB M.2 SATA SSD (like a Crucial MX500 or WD Blue 3D) for Windows plus a 2TB 2.5" 7mm HDD for your videos and less load intensive games (open world games that load progressively should go on the SSD)
Also your description makes it sound like your HDD is terribly fragmented (do you have less than 15% free space?) so you should check that too.
