PC feels very laggy after failed reset

[0917]

Brand new laptop, Lenovo Legion y530
Specs: i7 8th gen, 16gb ram, GTX105ti, 1TB HDD & 16Gb optane memory

I accidentally installed malware and I had to reset my laptop. But the reset was stuck on 58% for about an hour. So I had to force shutdown it, after turning it on, it installed windows and booted up as if everything was okay.
During installation of basic apps programs my laptop felt very laggy. It sometimes take very long to restart or shutdown. Apps take very long to open. What do I do? I am assuming the HDD or optane memory is damaged, and I have spare 256GB M.2 SSD which I am not sure if I should replace it. Or should I reset the laptop again? (wonder if it still going to freeze during reset). I am not huge tech savvy, so please help. Any ideas would be appreciated.
