Regarding your upgrade, yes they are very good laptops, but they do need a good storage nvme upgrade and a repaste to keep the performance going.
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
Just bought one of these used for 250 bucks. Only problem is that they gave me a power supply that isn’t quite good enough so the laptop will run in reduced performance until my new one arrives that I ordered from eBay. I’ll definitely be adding a SATA SSD and another 8GB of ram to it soon too.
i hope it arrives and you get your upgrades in order 🍻

I have an hp pavilion gaming laptop 15-dk1xxx i5-10300H CPU @ 2.50GHz. It comes with a 256 SSD. Can you reccommend a suitable 1TB SSD drive to add to the extra slot and a suitable 1TB NVME drive to replace the current 256 NVME from the manufacturer?

regarding your question: the best SSD's on market and very reliable are the Samsung, as they have a higher TBW and that means they will last much longer compared to other brands.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. But as I understand some of this models come with the SATA space free? Like with just de NVMe preinstalled? Or there is always the need to change it

Regarding your question, you are correct. These laptops are shipped with NVME M.2 drives and provide the option to add an additional HDD 2.5" or SSD 2.5" with a capacity of up to 2TB. This allows you to have extra storage alongside your NVME drive.

Hello, I have a pavilion 15-dkr1035nr and I was wondering what would I be able to upgrade on this laptop for newer games to run smoothly? Or is it not worth upgrading ?
Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
regarding your question: #1, is that you need a 16GB ram here is a video for that: ruclips.net/video/8-2oiUn8sgU/видео.html
then you need a fast m.2 ssd NVME and a good brand i highly recommend this: amzn.to/3CSs5T9
then you install windows fresh install from usb boot drive: ruclips.net/video/uDu8j2lE-dM/видео.html
then to proper install follow this installation guide: ruclips.net/video/euJvBhmoDzY/видео.html
Sir, sorry for interrupting. How much ram did you have before upgrading? Im not sure if mine pavilion has 4+4 ram which makes it 8...
this models they usually never put a 4gb ram stick, the use 8gb stick,
to know it open the task manager:
on your keyboard pres and hols: Ctrl+Shift+Esc keys and the task manager will open
the click on "more details"( prnt.sc/y2yebg )
then go to : "performance" tab ( prnt.sc/y2yh7u )
then click on memory tab on left ( prnt.sc/y2ymbl )
then on right down it will say "slots used: 1 of 2 o 2 of 2"
BUT im sure you have only one 8gb
then you can only have single channel.
I have a HP a gaming pavilion dk 15 0002la And this says that, from factory has a SSD (solid state) hard drive of 512GB and has an expasion capacity to an mechanical hard drive (HDD) of 1TB. How can I do it ?? how can I install this hard drive more.

Hey! Great video! Very helpful... Thank you so much!
Do you think that this laptop (model 15-ec1073dx that comes with 8GB RAM and 256GB NVMe) would be able to handle a 1TB NVMe and a 1TB SSD upgrade and also getting a 32GB RAM memory boost?
And... Would the 1TB SSD perform better than an HDD?
Hi, and YES AND defiantly YES to all the above :)
THIS Laptop we have upgraded a client to a 2TB NVME and 2TB SSD and it will work just like a charm.
and 1tb SSD SATA is 10times better than HDD.
and 32gb ram will work just fine,
but i would not recommend to get any kingston or adata ssd or nvme they are garbage, they do work was and all that but they have a very low life span,
THE BEST is Samsung NVME:
amzn.to/3eCs0pv
ssd best samsung :
amzn.to/3p9lUS6
2nd best i would go with CRUCIAL:
NVME:
amzn.to/38BPCcX
ssd:

THANK YOU FOR THE FEEDBACK, and your support tot he channel :)
@@uFixTek Hello Great video! I'm planning on getting this laptop tonight. As I seen in your video, and the recommendations you replied in this comment, are you referring to getting Samsung RAM, or Samsung SSD or NVME?
I have a similar laptop now, newer, but with basically the same base motherboard and external design, just bigger (the 17" version with french azerty keyboard, the 17" cd2001nf, the inside layout is clearly the same), it was provided with a samsung nvme ssd (512GB) and 8GB of ram, I kept the stock nvme SSD, since it was clearly good enough for the system drive (quite large and fast), but added a 2TB samsung evo 870 in the 2.5" tray and replaced the stock ram (2x4GB samsung, 8GB was clearly not good enough since I struggle even with 16GB of ram, which isn't enough for me nowadays as 8GB wasn't already enought for me in 2017, my 1st PC with 8GB of ram was from 2008 so I got used early to use a large amount of ram most of the time) by 2x16GB kingston fury. What lacks the most on this laptop, to me, is a 4th USB3 port (typeA) since I got 2 more USB 3 HDD and SSD to add externally, the 3rd USB 3 port is good for a hub with an external power supply to put all my other stuffs (mouse, mechanical keyboard, xbox pad...). To open a laptop cover, I wouldn't recommend any tool harder than the plastic itself, so I prefer to use either plastic, or wooden tools, in order to never leave a dent on an edge.
Thank you for the comment and your feedback, yes now it is all about 16gb ram if you want to run few programs at the same time, and that main ssd is more than fine and it is a good brand. in the future i recommend to replace it with nvme samsung PRO it is much much better for durability and reliability.
and for the opening tool use a metallic guitar pick .3mm you will never damage the case and a good tool to open, i been using it for over 17years and never had zero issue scratching or damaging cases, even the professional opening tools are the guitar pick with a plastic handle,
amzn.to/45ZYsvh
amzn.to/3RbKB0N
What are the benefits i get from upgrading these two? I have the exact same laptop with 16Ram, should i add that nvme or the hard drive to improve performance in games? Kinda new to this ty in advanve
Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
regarding your question: ok, you have a SSD m.2 only. so if you want to improvement for games or editing files, i would recommend you to get a 2nd SSD SATA 2.5" a good brand like Samsung:
amzn.to/3iVcknz
and place it on the left side, and have your games installed on this drive and you big files in here. by doing this the bandwidth with increase on main ssd and faster will work and load programs and files.
lets say for eg. the m.2 ssd that you have has a number of lanes of 10. windows requires 6 lanes (windows works based on % ) and you left with 4 lanes for file transfer and loading. this could affect performance and durability of SSD m.2
by adding another SSD and moving the game library and files there. you giving windows a FULL bandwidth and for you files and games have its own separate full bandwidth, for e.g 10lane for windows and 10 for files and personal data.
if you place the HDD instead of SSD 2.5' then you still having separate bandwidth, BUT HDD it's MUCH MUCH slower than SSD
if you have any question or request in the future feel free to ask me.
@@uFixTek thank you very much for the deep explanation, you definitely helped me, very appreciated

Hey, great video! I have a question:
I own an HP Pavilion Gaming 15 dk-0025ne Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz and it comes with a KBG30ZMV128G KIOXIA SSD. I'm looking to upgrade the NVMe and also add another SSD to the extra slot. Could you please suggest some suitable 1TB options for the NVMe and SSD. Also, is there any process to follow when changing NVMe since it is my boot drive? Thanks a lot :)
Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
regarding your question: sure i always recommend the best brand and durable (long lasting ) samsung NVME:
1 THE BEST: amzn.to/3MotuTJ
2 best: amzn.to/3vAHRO9
3rd best: amzn.to/3v6ePqw
now for the 2nd storage go with the same brand but sata:
1 the best: amzn.to/3v7GM1l
2nd best: amzn.to/3OwhBgE
when installing windows i recommend only place the NVME and once you finished installing windows , then shutdown then install the ssd 2.5"
to create windows 10 usb boot: ruclips.net/video/uDu8j2lE-dM/видео.html
to install on hp laptop simply power off and leave the usb drive you created and and install the new nvme and power on and keep tapping on ESC key until you see a menu and choose F9 and then choose the the usb and it will start the installation its very quick and easy follow this steps of installation for optimum windows installation:

Two questions Sir please :
May I ask what are SSD max storage supported options in case of both drives upgrade?
For the Nvme SSD, the original had two connectors (two curves on the ssd slot), is upgarding with an SSD with one connectors (one curve only) compatible?
Thank you very much.
Thank you for your feedback! If you'd like to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or do both!
Regarding your question, if you have an M.2 SSD with two notches, that indicates you have an M.2 SATA drive, which is slower than NVMe. NVMe M.2 drives have only one notch. Your laptop supports M.2 NVMe drives up to 2TB without any issues.
Additionally, you can also add an additional 2.5" SSD or HDD with a capacity of up to 2TB. However, if you choose an HDD, it should be low profile. All 2.5" SSDs are low profile by default.
For the best NVMe drives, I recommend Samsung Pro. You can find them here:
amzn.to/3CeJsgb
As for SSDs, you can consider the following option:
amzn.to/3NfGe2f
If you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
@@uFixTek Thank you very much. I actually did more research.
My windows 11 settings say that connector type is NVME, as well as HP spec for my model on their website after auto detect.
Appearently, the original SSD that came with it (KBG30ZMV128G TOSHIBA/KOXIA) is a rare case of SSD that has to curves on the design but still supported on NVME connector.
Now I know that my connector supports both: NVME and M2.
Thank you very much again
It's my pleasure my friend. 😊
as i mentioned yes it does support NVME and i highly recommend you to go with samsung pro.

Once u upgrade the ddr4 from a 8g 2900mhz to 2x8 with 3200mhz each how would u go about changing the mhz in the bios of the laptop for the upgraded power
thank you! for the feedback and your support to the channel by SUB :P
Regarding your question: THIS is a intel CPU, so you dont need to worry about the ram speed on intel cpu, if it was AMD cpu then sure ram speed can make a big difference, also if you place a 3200mhz the bios will adjust the ram speed based on motherboard not CPU. also this bios they dont have XMP option. so its auto adjust the ram speed. if you have a 8gb 2900 get another the same to have duo chanel ram.

Hi! I have the HP Pavilion Gaming 5 DK0007LA version of this laptop (128 GB SDD + 1 TB HDD), and I've wondering if it is possible to upgrade the existant SDD to a 500GB SDD and replace the HDD to a 1TB SDD (Sata3 of course). I asked an HP guy who told me it only takes up to 512 GB max, but I've read people upgrading other models to 2TB even.
ROFL jesus i just cant stop laughing to what this tech guys say, my question to them is: where do they pull the answers from?, they have a jar of BS?!!
regarding your questions:
#1. you can place any 1tb 2tb 4thb m.2 ssd
#2. you can also have at the same time 1tb 2tb 4tb ssd sata
#3. You will enjoy it so much :P

ya i took your comment and posted on my whatsapp chat and we are all laughing at the tech supports BS system , and you not the only one and HP is not the only we had the same issue with asus that they said it doesn't support nvme and it was clear that they did , but the poor guy had a bad DOA nvme :

this video helped a lot but can you please explain how to make the os run nvme because I installed a Samsung 970 evo and I cant get it to run the os i am stuck and don't know what to do and its just on page that says 3F0 hard disk and to install an os
you have to install fresh install of windows by following the steps:
#1. a 16gb usb drive
#2. download "windows 10 media creation tool" make sure you download it directly from miscrosoft website and not a third-party websites.
#3. place the usb in the pc /laptop and run the application "windows 10 media creation tool"
#4. follow the steps and it will download the windows setup and it will automatically burn it into usb.
#5 once finished, plug it into you Laptop that you need to install the OS, and as soon as you press ON button, keep taping escape key and then a a menu will show up, and choose i think F9 (boot selection) or something related to select boot.
#6 choose the usb drive from the list and the installation will start automatically,
#7 when you get to the step to choose "upgrade" or choose the Custom, go with "Custom installation"
#8 and when you get to the partition and drive list eliminate all partitions, and you will end up with one or two clean drive (if you have hdd and nvme it will show both there) and then choose the nvme and click next.
#7 recommended to disconnect internet and when asking for windows key click activate later, and wifi selection choose later or limited.
#8 5min later you done. :) thank you for your support

amzn.to/3qZnKFx
@@uFixTek Thank you! Do you by chance have a video on transferring my OS to the newly added SSD?
i never recommend doing cloning, it has lots of complications down the road. i recommend always fresh install of the windows. its faster and much more cleaner, all you need a 16gb USB stick. and go to Microsoft website and download windows media creator tool and this app will download the windows and burn it directly in to your USB drive and once its finished, you will need to shutdown the laptop and power on and keep clicking ESC key until you see a menu on the top left and choose F9 from the menu and choose the USB drive from the list and it will start the installation of the windows from the USB.
and choose advanced *custom option. and erase all the partitions that shows up and click continue, and 14min later you will be in desktop.
here are some steps that you may want to know what option to choose:

and after finished windows you have to to windows update so it can download and install automatically all the drivers. *Simple windows update

exactly what you did ? upgraded and removed what and what you placed?
give me as much as info you can.
did you remove the ram and placed it again?

regarding your opinion: its gen 3 PCI-E and its compatible with gen4 pci-e, i recommend you highly to place a m.2 nvme 1tb a god brand for the windows and programs, and a 2tb HDD for the games and big files.
the best brands that last longer secure,
🔵 TOP SSD NVME: amzn.to/3xBhEQB
🔵 TOP SSD SATA: amzn.to/3nsAmoM
🔵 2nd best SSD NVME: amzn.to/3bGEtLt

is it worth getting hdd these days? i was planning to save up for an ssd for the 2.5in slot too. also, by best do you mean the ones you recommended are the absolute best for my model? i was originally looking at the wd sn750 3rd gen.
i know this pc isnt even near mid-end, but i would like to know what the absolute best possible upgrades are for the model i have (2.5in, m.2, ram).
DON'T recommend you to have both SSD's get NVME m.2 ssd for the system and programs, and a 2TB HDD for your important files. because HDD are very secure and reliable for files. SSD are NOT. (same reason that they still use HDD on servers)
by having the windows on separate drive (ssd) you are taking advantage of full bandwidth of the HDD for your use.
so there is no bottleneck .
DON"T go with WD green they don't last long, one thing about the SSDs you should know its not always about the speed , you need to look out for the following:
-a good DRAM cache on SSD's
-a good firmware (controller)
-a good quality nad chips
and on top of that the TBW (Terabytes Written) of the ssd must be good.
because the SSD's they degrade based on how much GB (files) you save and erase, low end ssd give you 200TB, the best SSD's on m.2 or 2.5" are always samsung, they are leading SSD's again they have a categories in SSD's
here is a top of the line SSDs:
amzn.to/3upiIq0
amzn.to/3urQElO
but again don't upgrade the to ssd 2.5 go with hdd 2tb

regarding ram go with 32gb pack:

@@uFixTek hi i just got a samsung 970 plus nvme and installed it. works fine but one thing i was concerned about before closing my laptop up was that the heatsink was sort of "floating upward" on the side opposite of the screw. it didn't do this with my old nvme. is this something i should be worried about?
Hey the Samsung nvme you showed here has 1 notch at the end, while the one you're installing has a 2 notch. So can you elaborate because I can see the nvme compartment in this laptop has 1 notch slot so can 2 notch also fit? Please explain which one it supports
🫠Regarding your question, this laptop takes m.2 NVME and m.2 SATA, BUT i highly recommend the NVME as they are much much faster than SATA, and you can place up to 2Tb without any issues.
NVME has one notch
M.2 SATA has two notch

Can you make a video showing how to enter/exit bios set up and advanced options please?
Such as how to enable XMP or adjust ram speed as well as how to boot from a flash drive to install a new version of windows?
regarding your question: To enter tot he BIOS: power ON and once you powered on quickly press and hold the power button for 5-6 sec till you hear and feel the laptop shutdown.
now you going to power on the laptop and quickly keep tapping on ESC key and once you get the menu choose f9 (i believe if not f10) that should say system bio , or anything on that line.
not you in bios, unfortunately there is no advanced mode on this laptops, or on 99% of the laptops. you can't and don't have an option for XMP or any other advanced config, the bios is auto config state.
the bios will read the ram to it's bes of abilities and will never push the ram to its max speed :(
@uFixTek thank you! That helps alot.
It's unfortunate that the ram speed isn't adjustable.
ya they should add the xmp option to the laptop bios , but i guess they don't want to.

Hello, can you apply Liquid metal in order to reduce temps? I'm looking for that kind of video in this particular model.
hi and thank you for the support to the channel and regarding your question i would not recommend you to place a LM on this models. i would highly suggest you to place the equivalent paste that only has 1-2c difference with LM:
the same company of the LM makes the paste version that is much safer and same result:
Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut: amzn.to/2MBjZa5
and if you need to see a video on how to do so here is my video based on the repaste:
ruclips.net/video/faMzGl7awqE/видео.html
saludos
thanks for your answer, why you don't recommend the LM? I know that LM would have problems with heatsink that aren't made from copper, but I don't which material I have in this laptop.
nothing to do with copper or anything like problems, the LM will NOT damage or eat the copper , we tested for over 5years and never had an issue.
the reason you should never put a LM on a laptop is a bit more complicated to explain:
you need to know how LM is made and what does it contain and how it reacts to heat over time,
so let me try to explain abit:
#1. LM at its natural form is liquid based material
#2. there is no such a thing that it will degrade over time and stop doing a good job transferring heat (as people tested and saw temp going up after years)
#2a. the thing is that those people are tech ppl but no chemist, and if they knew that LM after 2months under heat and cold it will loose the Liquid material and it will solder it self into crystal and the copper making a perfect bound (awesome temp drops)
#3. BUT once the LM is in a bounding stage and its no longer liquid , at this time the transfer of the heat is PERFECT, but any small vibration or banging around the laptop WILL crack the sealed bond that LM created.
and at this point RIP awesome temps :P
and it will not bound back because the liquid is not present any longer.
FINAL point:
IF you use LM and never move the laptop like PC or be very very gentle when moving in a bag pack or putting on a table, then sure go with LM.
i hope i have explained my self and based on this you can decide what to use, recommending paste but if you like no harm done on trying LM.
Good luck my friend
thanks for your answer, great chanel.

Dear uFixTek is it worth the time and money to upgrade my hp pavilion gaming laptop by replacing 1TB HDD with SSD but i have on one slot SSD 256GB and the other is 1TB HDD should I replace it or no? I am using it for everyday activities and for playing gta 5 😁
Thank you for the feedback and your support by a sub :P
regarding your question:
IF you have windows installed on your SSD 256gb and you using the 1tb hdd for files and game saves, you are totally fine, if you replace the hdd with ssd you will not see much of improvement in games, only file transfers will be fast. if i was in your place i would keep the 1tb hdd, because the files are much safer in hdd than ssd.
@@uFixTek You are absolutely right compadre! One more question. Is it overkill to upgrade my RAM memory? I have 16GB installed since I've bought the laptop does it make sense to add 8GB so I can have 24GB RAM in total?
de nada compa!, :P regarding the ram if you have a single stick of 16gb ram and an available ram dim, then in the name of god or allah or gandi please put a 4gb or 8gb in the next dim. the reason is :
16GB is more than enough BUT you dont have a duo channel memory activated by having a single ram dim installed. by putting a 4gb or 8gb ram you will ave a dual channel ram activated and that is much faster than having a single ram. its not question of GB its about the file architectures, just go a head and smack another 4gb or 8gb ram in there.
but if you have 2x 8GB then forget the above comments and dont do any upgrade.
@@uFixTek hey I have just checked the official hp site my 350C4EA model site claims that I have 2x8GB ram schedule so there's no need for additional upgrade. Thx again brother and wish you all the best!!❤️

@@uFixTek Thank you so much. You have been of great help. Another techy friend of mine also confirmed it isn't an issue. I was supposed to go buy the laptop today but due to this I didn't and now there's a lockdown being enforced here from tomorrow and the shops will probably reopen by around 18th May...
@@elitemartial1652 you are very welcome my friend if you ever got any questions feel free to ask me. good luck and thank you for your support
Im really new into this and I just got the model 15-dk0096wm, I want to upgrade the ram to 16 and the memory to 512 or 1TB ssd what options would be good? I couldn't find anything on Amazon :(
i made a video for the RAM:
ruclips.net/video/8-2oiUn8sgU/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
16GB ram: amzn.to/3cOmXRT
and regarding the ssd, you can get any ssd sata 2.5' i recommend a 1tb because it will give to a higher TBW (writes before failure)
top of the line is samsung 1tb:

we have tested and it will work just fine, trust me.
@@uFixTek can you pls tell me about any empty slot provided for hp dk 1508tx. I am too confused. Some says can be, some says can't.
Thank you ❤️
by empty slot you talking about the left side the big square space, DON't listen to anyone you can hands down place a hdd or ssd sata 2.5' up to 4tb
and the right side you can place the m.2 ssd up to 4tb without any issue

@@uFixTek it same to hp dk1508tx model which is available in india? Because I will buy this model (hp dk1508tx).Just comfirm this. Thank you ❤️
yes my friend its the same. get it and when you open the bottom cover send me pictures and i will help you.
Do all the dk series laptops have that other holder for ssd, the big one?
yes they all include the caddy the plastic dummy there, after you place the ssd or hdd you have to trash or remove that.I would appreciate your support to the channel by a sub :P
@@uFixTek thx for the info, subbed! :)
Thank you :) much appreciated
I'm having an extremely difficult time getting the cover off. I've been working on it for about an hour without success. It feels like it was glued on. Do you know if there is some kind of practical reason why they make it so difficult to take off?
its normal the clips are a bit hard to get loosen, but use a bit more force don't worry , just pop it open with a bit more force. you even may most likely break some clips and that's perfectly fine, because its just a cover and the screws do the job, so use a bit more force and it should come out.
thank you for the feedback and support to the channel.
@@uFixTek I finally got it off,but now I've got I've got a new problem. I accidentally stripped a screw on my SSD slot. :(
the ssd m.2 or the ssd sata caddy screws, dont worry there is a easy fix, use a flat head screw and press down hard into the screw and slow rotation. if that failed the you may want to cut straight on the screw heat so you can fit a flat head screw
How can I download more RAM for this laptop? I got only 8 GB when i purchased.

Can someone tell me, can I add another 16GB ram to my laptop. I have 8GB already. (same laptop as this video)
Thanks ✌ for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
Regarding your request: Don't listen to any of them check it with your own eyes :P
here is a video i made to check what is your max capacity, we get a lot of clients come to the store for upgrade and we always check the max capacity via this command:
ruclips.net/video/tKEJTkVth4Q/видео.html
if yours it says 16gb the 8gbx2 if 32gb 16gb x 2.
let me know what the command shows.
@@uFixTek I have subscribe which you deserve. thank you very much for the reply. I will check the video :)
@@uFixTek I got 33.554432 and 2 slots as the result. so I have 8GB ram already and can I add another 1 16gb ram in same bus speed?
thank you, 33.5gb =32gb ram
if you have 8gb then sure you can add another 16gb on other empty space.
you will get total of 24gb
ram 16gb compatible: amzn.to/3jpgxgU

@@uFixTek great! thank you very much
bro can you please tell me the memory module details of HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk0096wm i.e. single ranked or dual ranked and also x4 based or x8 based
dont go looking for this info, because we deal with with many of this laptops and every time with open one the rams are different brands and different specs, i would recommend you to open up your lap and check the sticker on top of the ram you have and then you will know exact spec of the ram you have. the only thing the laptop model will tell you is that you have 4gb or 8gb or 16gb ram dim. the rest depends.
thank you for the support to the channel by sub :)
@@uFixTek thanks for clarifying bro
anytime my friend and good luck :)
