When upgrading a laptop's storage from an HDD to an SSD, especially in laptops with only a single bay for a hard drive, the most critical characteristic to consider is the form factor. The form factor must match the physical dimensions and interface of the original HDD to ensure that the SSD can fit into the bay and connect properly. Storage size (B) is important for capacity reasons, transfer speed (D) affects performance, and partition type (A) is a software configuration aspect, but the form factor (C) is crucial for the physical compatibility of the SSD with the laptop.
