Here's the IFIXIT guide to replace your HD: iMac Intel 20吋“EMC 2133和2210 硬盘更换|iMac Intel 20" EMC 2133 and 2210 Hard Drive Replacement]. If you replace your HD with a SSD you'll need to take off the thermal sensor and apply it to the SSD. Jump to Step18 for the details on how to do this.
But before you do this you'll need to make sure your systems firmware is upto date. Follow this Apple T/N: EFI and SMC firmware updates for Intel-based Macs.
You'll also need this: Universal Drive Adapter so you can prep a fresh copy of the OS on the drive and copy your stuff over.

In theory, there should be many possible SSD drives that fit this model as it is a standard SATA interface. I'm not versed in the specifics for the job of replacing the HDD on this machine, but there are sure to be many guides on this site. If you want an example of SSD drives that will work, try the following:
You can also use the system scanner tool on Crucial's site to confirm what supporting upgrades they have.
I fitted one of these in my MacBook Pro of similar era and it made a world of difference. One more thing to note, if you haven't done so already, look into the possibilities of upgrading your memory as this also gets a lot of life into the old dog, so to speak.
Hope that helps.
