Thank you for watching my video. With any project like this, always take precautions against static discharge and use the proper, quality tools. Dale
Thank you for help! Best Buy doesn’t deserve 200 bucks for a RAM install when it’s this simple. I had no idea, thank you!
You Made This Process As Smooth As Silk..... Kudos
Thank you so much for this video. Gave me the confidence to open up my own laptop to upgrade ram, 2 x 8gb.
I've seen other videos
But I just have to say this
You're the BEST
Thanks Dale, I'm saving your video. This is almost exactly what I want to do to my HP15-dw0081wm...
I really love that it don’t seem like you did any edits to this video. While you were getting the install going I am sitting here with my pen in hand, biting my nails, making notes of what to do if I run into the same situation. Great video. You only spoke on what was necessary for this video. Very clear and straight to the mission. Really enjoyed this video! Thank you.
Awesome! Finally a tutorial I could understand.😊👍
Wow!! I am not going to lie. It had been awhile since I had taken a laptop apart to do any work on it. My eyes are not what they used to be. I was pretty certain the hard drive was shot in my HP. After watching your video the first time I said to myself, "why not give it a shot"? For $31 total from Amazon I got a tool kit and SSD hard drive. You made the rest easy. Can't thank you enough!!
how much was the ssd hard drive? any recommendations at reasonable prices?
Just came across your channel! Thank you for making this video, it has truly help me ❤️💯
Thanks so much for the video, sir! 👍🏼
It sure helped me a lot! 😊
I just replaced my 256 Gb M
.2 SSD with a 1Tb Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 SSD. Thanks again and keep up the good work and have a good day, sir!
Greetings from the Netherlands! 🙋🏽♂️
It's a very informative video better than HP website that does not even offer a service manual.
glad i saw your video when you used the plugable 3.0 to usb nvme adapter my faveret tool when i clone a new nvme m.2 ssd thanks
Love the information !!
this is such a good video - the info, the anecdotes, the thorough explanations, I love it! subscribed! :)
I bought a HP Pavillion 15.6 AMD base and it takes a Nvme m.2 gen3 which I upgraded to 1tb and up the ram to 16gb. After struggling with Dell's , I find the HP'S alot better from speed to battery life.
Thanks - needed to add some memory. Thanks to you - easy!
Thanks só much brother!.. Angola- Luanda
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thanks really learning a lot
Very informative and good explanation. Thanks
Keep up the great tutorials
Thanks very much! Found this very helpful
thank you for this tutorial sir, i have that similar laptop, I'm planning to upgrade it to 8 x 2 dual channel..
Bought one of these several months ago. The first thing I did was to wipe out Windows and install Linux Mint 20, now 20.1. Heads up about that, you'll need either a USB wifi to install the drivers for the Realtek wifi card or look around for the .deb file and type in a couple of commands to get that working. Other than that Linux Mint XFCE works great on this lap top.
Thanks for the heads up! I'm buying one for that same purpose.
t hank you for your upgrade and trouble shooting
Great video, very clear and easy to follow. Made the job very easy and without problems. Thanks!
Thanks for making these kind of videos very helpfull.
Thank you for this video
thanks for the great how to videos, i up graded my hp pavillion eh0050wm laptop witha seagate nvme m.2 ssd an mt ram to the corsair vengence 23gb 3200mhz runs great running win 11. kep up with the great videos.. thanks
Hello i have a question i have HP 15.6 model 15 -dy207dx 8gb-256gb SSD is it possible to use the corsair vengeance i was possible trying 16gb will it work ?
Thank you.
thanks, gramps!
super helpful!! thank you 💚
Glad it helped ya. Dale
I have the 1027od which does come with a 250GB NVMe, which I will upgrade to a 500GB NVMe. I noticed from the HP website the 1024wm doesn't support NVMe. Excellent video and reference tools. Thanks!
Thanks for watching. Dale
@@CadillacComputerCenter hello, does this laptop have an extra storage slot for a Harddrive?
the 3022tu models come with a 1tb hdd to which u can add an NVMe@@paolorossi784
Thanks for the video. Hope your gonna do more and get lots of subscribers.
Thank you much. Dale
When i upgraded my acer a while ago, first of all it was so much easier to open up, no prying was involved (probably why theyre so flimsy) but i completely forgot to disconnect the battery. i only shut it down. still worked fine tho and the added HDD and +8gb ram all worked after that. But good thing to keep in mind now.
got the ryzen version of this today. going to put a 1tb 980 pro in it and 32 gb vengeance kit. the ryzen 5000 series came with an nvme pcie m.2 but only 256gb. going to have to run a usb hub in it with only 2 usb slots but nice looking laptop for my wife. i wish i could put in an ssd for an acronis restore disk as well but i dont seen any sata ports. but she loves it so far. i was able to duplicate all her settings and get all her preferences setup easily enough. the win 10 downgrade was a pain because i had to allow windows 11 to update before i could get the pc out of S-Mode before i could start the windows 10 install. other than that it went simply enough. all the drivers were grabbed in the install process. the radeon graphics driver was a wrong version but it worked well enough to get the right version installed. still waiting to open the case until the ram comes in the mail. i can say i hate its keyboard. i never liked blister keyboards and this one is particularly squishy feeling and lack a feeling of confidence of they keys actually getting pushed. The 6 core 12 thread cpu is nice much better then the 2 core systems i still see out there and the machine boots up pretty fast and little lag in input. for a low cost laptop its very good and its shortcomings are to be expected at the price. i just hope they make replacement keyboards available as i see having to replace it many times over the next several years. for my wifes purposes of email and browsing its perfect. the screen is remarkably clear for this tier computer as well. thanks for the video it will come in handy in the next few days when i do the upgrade.
i don't understand why they put a huge massive empty space in such a cramped laptop and then didn t even put some kind of port for putting another ssd. I would like to buy this pc (amd type) but this lack of second ssd port is killing me. do you think that putting a permanent 512 SD installed in the dedicated slot would be a viable solution for adding some space? just guessing
thank u
Thanks!
Your welcome. Dale

Hello good Morning. I would like to know the name of the connector that makes the HDD connection, so I can also install an HD ssd 2.5
Hi sir, first of all, thanks for your videos! they are awesome, new subscriber here. I just bought a entrylevel laptop from HP, a 15s-fq0008sl (celeron n4120 with 4gb, 128gb m2 sata drive). I read the hp service manual and found this series (and also found a brandnew model named 15s-fq0006sl with apparently the same hw platform that comes with nvme one) is capable of run nvme drives. Given this, still you suggest to use a sata m2 drive or think it could work fine with the mvne? would I notice the differences in performances in this particular setup, with a n4120 cpu and 1 channel 8gb ram, or better stay with a bigger m2 sata ssd? thanks in advance and greetings from italy
nice screwdriver with light too.thanks for process..i use guitar pick for plastic edge prying works great too..so if you rem drive and put new with clean install it activates off old sys how.?
Great video. I have this model. I'd be interested to see how you clean the fan. 😎
Wd-40
Thank you for the video.
Can I ask you two questions please
1: what is the reason you have removed the battery? Must has no power at all when you install new ssd?
2: how the new ssd will recognise all the old data had the laptop?
Thanks
Great video I have an HP Laptop 15-bs0xx with M.2 slot with notch on the left the M.2 NVMe SSD have I am finding have slot on the right . Is it possible yo fit the SSD turned upside down so that the slot is on the left.i.e label side facing downwards.
I am trying to replace the fan in this HP 15-dy 1024wm shown above However, the fan connections are too small to handle. Can you show me how to disconnect the fan and what tool to use? Thanks for your help.
hi can i use internal hard disk for same laptop?
Brilliant video!!!! Is the hp 15-db0000na a similar layout? Trying to upgrade my daughters laptop from 4GB of RAM to 8GB which I think is the max .
On the videoclip 6:43, motherboard have 2 flat cable (FFC) connector it is for SATA drive? wonder this laptop can add SATA SSD.
Great content! Just a question. Given that its somewhat hard to open this laptop, could you stick a thermal pad on the cpu and just clean the fan with a can of compressed air to avoid opening it too frequently?
This was nothing. Many laptops are much more difficult to open. My biggest concern was the rubber feet. Not common to hide the screws under removable rubber strips.
Do you know if can use a ssd wd sn750 with hotsink?? Or just it isn't necessary use "the hotsink"??
hi would you show us how to install hdd 2.5 in hp 15s-1117au
👍👍👍👍👍👍
When installing a new hard drive is it mandatory to change your ram as well? Also, if you didn't buy a new hard drive that has all of your computer info on it, will you need to back up your data on to a USB?
Can you add a second SSD Sata next to the battery/
Why do we need to remove the battery before adding the new ram sticks please?
Lol my man said my bad... 19:54
Very goog
do you know if i can do that on a 15-dw3015nq?
Excellent video. This is an eye opener. A very horrible mechanism to open the back panel
Great video! Thank you for making it. I have a Hp 15-dw0043dx and would like to upgrade the hard drive to 1 TB. Is there a type and model hard drive you would recommend? I don't wanna buy the wrong thing. Thank you again.
Would this drive work? SK hynix Gold P31 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen3 M.2 2280 Internal SSD | Up to 3500MB/S | Compact M.2 SSD Form Factor SK hynix SSD | Internal Solid State Drive with 128-Layer NAND Flash
The virtue of clean install from media creation tool is that you do not carry all the malware and baggage from previous user, However you lost all the user apps and data and the HP recovery tools. It is probably better to close the SSD in mst situations.
Why do you pull the battery out ?
Sir show bios setting while upgread ssd
Can I add an hdd or 2.5 SSD ???
Hi, do you know if the HP EF-2729wm laptop can be upgraded with more ram and storage?
Theres a few other drivers you need to install. If you go in to device manager and click each heading you'll see yellow triangles on what didnt install..
I have the 15-dy2131wm is the same? on this video
What docking station will work for the HP dy2000 of dy2xxx so I can use multiple monitors
i'm trying to reformat the 256gb that came with the laptop but when i reformat it, it doesn't see the hard drive?
Does hp 15 bs147 supports ssd? If does then what kind of ssd it supports?
i have the same laptop but mine is the dy1031wm and my question is that if you upgrade the ram to a higher gb but keep the ssd will there be any issues because im lookin into just upgrade my ram instead of wasting hundreds of dollars for a completely new laptop mainly for my gaming purpose
How do I know the max ram I can put in it? I have the hp15-dy2005tg
Dale you are an experienced laptop technician....Can you please guide me whether HP 15-da2000TU will work fine on an M.2 NVMe SSD. You may have come across this model. Waiting for your reply and thanks in advance.....
Help! I bought a new HP Envy 17 cg0003ca with 256 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD from Costco. It comes pre-installed with an HP-branded Windows 10 Home.
I tried to make this laptop dual boot with Windows 10 Pro. But it crashes with a blue screen “Your PC/Device needs to be repaired” error code: 0x000000e. 👎 (I did the exact same dual boot set-up on my Dell laptop and did not have any issue.)
Could this have anything to do with the HP-branded Windows 10 Home version that is pre-installed with the HP Envy 17? Do I need to reformat the whole hard drive and install a clean Windows 10 Pro base OS in order to do dual boot on this HP Envy 17? PLEASE HELP! 🙏
sir, you got a nice screw driver. May I know its brand and model?
When you said Clone How does that work for the Drive?
Hello I have a HP 15-dy2702dx i3-1115G4 265gb solid state drive3 8gb SODIMM DDR4 SDRAM no optical drive 15.6 can i upgrade the Ram anther 8GB would it be worth it
Hi, will this reboot of windows 10 sequence work on pretty much the same laptop running windows 11 without need to find the product key again? thanks
Hello Cadillac from England, quick question, the Corsair Vengeance you upgraded to, was it 2666mhz or 2400mhz?. The reason why i ask is when you opened task manager after you'd finished, it showed 2400mhz for the memory. Cheers.
Thanks for watching. I believe it was 2400mhz. The factory ram was 2400. Lot of those models only support 2400. 2666 will work though, may just clock down. Thx
@@CadillacComputerCenter , Thank's for the quick reply. Ok, i bought some 2400mhz 2 x 8gb corsair vengeance for an older HP laptop as an upgrade that had standard 2400mhz memory in it, but it didn't like it one bit. I have another HP, model number 15s-fq1505na, which is 2 years old nearly, that has 4gb 2666mhz as standard, so in theory the corsair i have should be ok. Cheers.
i have an 15-dw1083 i up graded to a 32 memory and it works well but i have a question my hp has 2 slots for ssd one does have a sata in the slot but the is empty what would the other slot be used for i would a reply thanks will check on your reply
i wanna know too
can you follow along with this video if your laptop already has files downloaded, pictures etc.?
hi there i have same laptop but its a 15 dy2075tg 11 gen what is your recommend ram and ssd memory and how big can i go on both of them
Hi, I have recently came to the US as an international student and I have the same laptop model. Wondering where to go for SSD installation in my laptop. It has HDD right now and it's very slow when it comes to its performance. Do shops like Walmart do the SSD installation?
Where to buy the Ssd At?
I looked into it and my model is "HP Laptop 15s-fq2xxx"and it comes stock with "NVME SK Hynix bc711 hfm256gd3jx013n"
Also its Windows 11
I have Hp au084tx
Its manual says...
Supports M.2 SATA-3 SSD
128 GB SATA III Solid-state Drive
256 GB SATA III Solid-state Drive
256 GB SATA III Solid-state Drive NVMe
What this means, does it support m.2 SATA ssd or NVMe SSD ???
SHOULD i go with 500gb or only 256 gb supported ???
I just bought a HP 15-dy1087nr and came with 8GB of RAM. I tried to add 16GB and nothing would happen. Looks like I was a little impatient. I'll try again. Do you know if this HP will support 16 or 24GB of RAM? Thanks!
Yes, 16gb is compatible
Aside from the ssd the RAM, and the battery, are there really any other upgrades that can be done? Thank you.
Maybe the wifi module if it's like a mini m.2 key, but I don't remember seeing one when initially opening the case.
i think I trust my self with the ram not the ssd
But what happens if you don’t have the flash drive will it give you an option of what you can run it on
Ciao, sai quale connettore è per ssd per favore?
Where is CMOS battery on this model laptop. I faced Cmos checksum error
Did you ever find it? I'm in the same boat.
@@TheKaliedescope There is no CMOS battery on this model laptop. Only solution is main battery replacement.
@@PigeonAndMe Thank you! That was the conclusion I was reaching. I changed the main battery and it's like 90% better but I got worried when it started boot looping again.
@@TheKaliedescope I think that's not authentic products from Hp. Please remove that battery. one part of your battery will blast very soon.
hello can i ask if i can add an ssd drive not change it , so i can have on pc both ssd and hdd drives ??
Hi. This model does not have a 2.5 inch mounting caddy or cable.
Please can you send me exactly link which one will be need 16GB RAM DDR4 for my laptop HP 15s-fq0028na And how many will be need kit ? Because if I'm correct indside see only one 4GB RAM DDR4 in my laptop HP 15s-fq0028na
Can u get a ssd adapter? Trying to use my nvme port for something else
Know it’s possible on some of these hp. Mine is a 15-dy1043dx
Hello i have a question i have HP 15.6 model 15 -dy207dx 8gb-256gb SSD is it possible to use the corsair vengeance i was possible trying 16gb will it work ?
What do you use to stick the rubber grip back under the laptop? Does it stay sticky enough to put back? Do you apply glue or something? You didn't reapply them back in the vid.
Usually there is enough adhesive left on the strip to re apply. If not , just use a few tiny specs of super glue on the ends and one or two in the middle.
Just be careful peeling it up. Make sure you get under it all the way or you will peel the rubber off and leave the tape
How to fix the 100% usage in cpu ?
does it have 2.5 inch sata connector?
Why didn't you put 2 16 gb rams in there or could you?
