Installed my new 250gb SSD today! Thank you so much for this video! The only thing I wish I would of known was the three screws under the CD drive would need a PH000 screw, but once I purchased that, I was good to go!
You mean to tell me that I can improve the performance of my laptop for less than $100 than dropping $1,000+ on a whole new computer?! I need this upgrade now! I had the same laptop for 4 years, barely any memory used up, but now my computer occasionally crashes, very slow on certain applications and the battery is barley lasting 2 hours!
Just put an SSD in my friend's old budget laptop, 5 years old, garbage. Made it fast, like, actually usable.
Thank you very much for your help with this laptop. This laptop process was more than what I've done in the passed to get to the SSD, so your video was extremely helpful.
Poor design, a lot of work just remove a drive.
HP "proprietary"...wants one to send it to them for upgrades.
Awesome video thanks brother I love that jazz music in the background
Great video! Had this old laptop laying in the closet for years. Decided to play around with it the other night so upgraded the ram and hd to a ssd. your video made the former job go as smooth as silk. Sadly I didn't notice a major improvement in the compiters speed. I guess the cpu is just to underpowered in this day and age.
Thanks for the video though!
Thank you for commenting this, I was going to make the investment but if there's not a huge difference I won't bother
How did you remove The optical drive? There seems to be another third screw that I can't get to where the optical drive is
Pretty neat how your body blocks what you're doing. Great job.
You are high as fuck
Stop being a ........
Great Video! I'd recommend some cheap sound absorbing tiles and maybe a rug to cut down on echo 🙂
Thanks!
Great video! this just what I was looking for! Thank you so much. Have you also upgraded the memory? I tried with a Kingston SODIMM 8Gb memory module (same specs than the 4GB one) but it didn't work.
Thank you so much, this saved me a lot of money.
What mm screwdriver did you need to remove screws from CD?
Thank you for this tutorial. However based on the issues others have had I probably won't attempt this. Gotta say I will NEVER purchase another HP product. My HP 15-F272wm HDD starting failing within 6 mths. I didn't really think it was the hard drive. I thought it was just a cheap processor. I barely used it and just kept it for picture storage. Now it has completely failed and I've lost everything. I wish I suspected the HDD earlier but I'm definitely a novice with stuff like this. I used to think HP products were quality but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Every HP printer at my work is constantly going down. Im shocked that something so cheap and inferior was put out in the consumer market. Then again I was dumb enough to buy this at Wal-Mart. Definitely a lesson learned the hard way.
mine too i never lost the data but computer freeze during start so many times until i uprageded the ram but this laptop still has some most random crashes once in while
would the 1tb version of the link you provided work with this model computer?
Looking about the motherboard 233F HP, because i want to put a Ssd m.2 on it
(Note: my Pc looks the same model)
Hi! I've been following your tutorial video step-by-step, but whenever it gets to the point where you take the disc drive out, I'm unable to, despite taking out every screw in the back. Any idea why?
Make sure that you take out all screws that are visible. Also always be gentle, so that you dont risk breaking anything.
@@Ghost57 Well, back with an update: I can 120% confirm I have a 15-f272wm, I've double-checked it I don't even know how many times, but for me, I had to remove the three screws in the disc-drive before being able to rip them out, whereas you were able to rip the disc drive out before removing said screws. This is really odd, but what's also odd is that at 2:04, we only have three of the screws there.
We're now at a point where we're supposed to use the little rubber/plastic tool to open it up via sliding it on the front and sides, but we're unable to make much progress.
Honestly I'm just at a loss. The bottom of the laptop says it's a 15-f272wm but we've been having difficulties where you haven't. Any idea?
Something .Else
There’s two different versions the Walmart version and non-I have the non-version as well just take your time make sure you get out all screws disconnect it carefully
what is the price of the new hard drive and what model is it?
What SSD drive will fit? What is the physical size?
What no motherboard RAM upgrade! The case was off!
Thank-You for this video... 2 slots 1 user friendly, the other on the motherboard?
Do you have a video or a picture of where the second RAM stick goes? Thank-You...
I went ahead and got an 8GB stick and putting it into the used friendly slot!
Still want to know where the other stick goes!?!?
Perfect.
It works perfectly.
Thanks
thank's a lot,, excellent video, God Bless you, and i suscribe to your chanel
Thank you
I'm new to DIY computer repair. I've seen a lot of information on making sure to ground PC's and laptops before working on them, people often use an anti-static wrist band to do this. In your video you do not mention anything about making sure the laptop was grounded before working on it (that I can remember). Do I need to worry about trying to ground mine or not? I have the Walmart version of this laptop. Thank you!!!
Truthfully, I’ve worked on close to a dozen laptops while lying on my carpeted floor and never had any problems. I wouldn’t recommend doing what I do but you have nothing to worry about if you just work in a table.
He’s using an anti static mat
I’ve been working on PC’s for 12 years now, and I have never ever once used one of those bracelets/mats anything. You’ll be alright, just be careful.
Hey boss, will this fix HP Turbo Silver 15-f271wm?
Great video where is the 2nd ram slot?
WOW! They don't make it easy do they. I swapped my old Toshiba out in under 5 minutes. Toshiba had a panel over the drive, 4 screws.
I was gifted this same HP recently, and had planned to upgrade to an SSD, but after watching this I may just give it to someone else. Really not much of a computer.
@@oldator60 It isn't that hard, but I agree that they should've just located the storage drive under a panel on the base cover. They already had one for the ram; why not the HDD too?
Excelente thanks You
Thank u for make this video. :)
Thanks bro everything went great except that the mouse cursor isn’t showing up so I’m using the keyboard what could’ve cause this? I haven’t tried a physical mouse yet I’m about to buy one and see
Can you please tell me what size screw driver do I need to remove the three silver CD Drive bay screws. None that I have tried fit.
What's the difference because looks like the old drive says 500gb and you are putting in 250gb so are you thinking down the gigs? Hmu
I followed, step by step, your video. Assembled my HP 15-f272wm. Everything worked well, except the touchpad. The touchpad is not working so I have to use a mouse. What could possibly happened? Thank you
The touch pads are REALLY sensitive. You probably broke something related to the pin alignment. It's OK. A wireless USB mouse works better than the touchpad did anyway.
Yeah i want to swap my old hard drive out for a ssd but im clueless on transferring ALL the old programs/files/data to the new ssd without losing or deleting anything

I am going to make a video on how to clone your SSD from your old HDD
@@Ghost57 when are you making that video?
I have this laptop and looking to upgrade it. will it take 2 sticks of ram? i was hoping to put in two of these 8GB DDR3L 1600MHz PC3-12800
Do you know if the Windows key is built-in to the motherboard?
Serious question i have the exact laptop no colant fan in it!? Were is the heat sink i need to put new thermal paste on the bord!?
Thank you so much
How do you connect the keyboard ribbon back in its place I am having issues putting it back
I need you help pleaseeee!!! I need to upgrade my memory ram to 8 gb of Ram, I have the same computer and my standard memory ram is from 4gb ram, please I want to be sure if my computer is going to support 8GBb of Ram, PLEASEEEEE!!
You computer does support 8gb of Ram
Ghostbitcoinminer 57 I appreciate it
yes got same pc upgrade from 4gb to 8gb
@@dagosism Hi! would you please send me a picture of the SODIMM memory module specs that you have used? I tried with a Kingston KVR16LS11/8 (same spec than de 4 GB module) but it didn't work. I'd appreciate a lot if you do that. Mi e-mail is periodista.g@gmail.com
How much of a difference did the ram make?
Thank you!
Thanks for posting. I'm considering doing this to mine as well as upgrading to 8gb ram. As-is, it's unbelievably slow.
Is the performance better? Thinking of doing same thing.
@@EB-xg1jf I ordered the parts this past weekend, got 8gb RAM and a 240gb SSD on the way. I'll update soon 😊
@@traby4077 Ok Please. The information will be really helpful. My pc is really annoying to use now and I'm considering a new laptop.
@@EB-xg1jf I finished the job today. 8gb RAM, and 240gb SSD. I could not have done it without this video, so thanks for the upload! My computer runs like a totally different machine, it's unbelievable how great the improvement is. I highly recommend doing the upgrades. I bought the SSD and RAM combined for under $65 on Ebay, so give it a shot. It's much cheaper than buying a new PC!
@@traby4077 Thank you very much for the update. I will do same. Can you please inform me on the SSD and RAM brand?
I hope the improved performance lasts long and doesn't start disturbing again after few years of use.
thanks
where did you buy harddrive
Okay about reassemble my laptop. But there is a small ribbon that connects to the power key, The first part of the ribbon the silver part is like it's ripped. What can I do to repair this?:
I need to upgrade my HD because I'm almost out of space. Are SSD's rated different than normal drives ? I need at least 1 TB of space. Also, I need to move my entire drive info over to the new drive. Will Win 10 let me do this, or will I have to reactivate it, or what will I need to do ? What's the easiest way to do this ?

can i put ssd and hdd at the same time in this laptop?
Not on this PC
someone knows why my computer is slow it has a processor celeron to 1.60 hzt with 8 Gb ram it is the same model HP 15.6 "it runs with Windows 10 home but it is slow when loading videos on RUclips I do not understand maybe it is the Windows version
Why didn't you say something about the cd rom screws hidden under the tray? That jacks things u quite a bit. could not remove the screws, and to rip them, and of course bent somethings. Man, you really blew this tutorial
Screw you HP for making such a horribly, anti-repair laptop design like this.
Thanks, and PISS OFF HP for making such a ridiculous piece of shite. I upgrared my del at the same time. 4 scress and swapped the drive in under 2 minutes LITERALLY.
now my laptop doesn't turn on
How did you remove the dice drive? because mine has a yellow ribbon running from it.
