As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Hadeeth is the knowledge of the sayings of Rasulullah (Salallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam), his actions, conditions, acknowledgments of actions and that of his Sahaba (Radhiyallahu `anhum).
Sunnah according to majority ulama is a synonym for hadeeth[1].

[1] قال ملا على القاري في شرح شرح نخبة الفكر: (للْحَدِيث) وَهُوَ [فِي اللُّغَة] ضد الْقَدِيم ويُستعمل فِي قَلِيل الْكَلَام [وَكَثِيره] ، قَالَ تَعَالَى: {فليأتوا بِحَدِيث مثله إِن كَانُوا صَادِقين} وَفِي اصطلاحهم: قَول رَسُول الله [صلى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسلم] ، وَفعله، وَتَقْرِيره، وَصفته حَتَّى فِي الحركات، والسَّكَنَات، فِي الْيَقَظَة، والمنام ذكره السخاوي، وَفِي " الْخُلَاصَة ": أَو الصَّحَابِيّ، أَو التَّابِعِيّ ... . إِلَخ. ويرادفه السُّنة عِنْد الْأَكْثَر
