can I upgrade a computer laptop hp pavilion ze4900 with a ssd?

The hard drive is a failure in a hp pavilion ze4907wm (ze4900 sold through Wal-Mart).

Are there any special considerations to replace the hard drive (capacity limit etc.)?

Can I put a SSD PATA in there?

Thank you

If you can find a PATA SSD then probably. You should make sure that the rider is manually to the master. There could also be compatibility problems.

Overall, I would recommend you just replace it with a regular PATA HDD... There is less chance of a problem.

    1 of 3. Theoretically you can upgrade the processor as follows:

    Processor Intel Core i7-820QM 1.73 GHz, SC turbo up to 3.06 GHz with 8 MB of L2 cache
    and 1333 MHz front side bus (FSB)

    Frankly I would not worth it. The workload and potential will weigh much more heavily in the balance than the gain of performance negigible. An SSD would be much easier and would provide even more performance gain in any other game.

    The GeForce 230 M is the best graphics available in this series, so there is no motherboard better. Graphic design is not a replaceable but welded card to the motherboard. There is only one available for this model fan. Perhaps you could improve its performance with best chocks composed or perhaps thermal thermal but it's a cutting-edge engineering.

    Hi Mohamed,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community!

    According to the description, it looks like you want to know the difference between the scores provided by Windows experience Index (WEI) and the graphics of games.

    Windows Experience Index measures the capability of the hardware and software of your computer configuration and expresses this measurement as a number called a base score. A higher base score means that your computer will perform better and faster than a computer with a score of lower base, especially when more advanced and resource-intensive tasks running.

    Visit this link to learn more about the Windows experience index:

    Hope this information helps. If you have any questions with Windows do not hesitate to answer and we will be happy to help you.

  • Pavilion G6-1030TX cell phone: I want to upgrade my computer laptop CPU & Graphics

    G ' Day everyone,

    I'm looking to upgrade my processor for laptop HP Pavilion G6-1030TX and graphics, but I don't know if it's possible?

    In the 'HP Pavilion G series maintenance book' clearly sets out a list of graphics chipsets and processors, I'm looking at upgrading my processor processor Intel Core i3 - 380 M (2.53 GHz, 3 MB L3), double 35 W to the processor Intel Core i7 - 2620M (2.7 GHz, turbo up to 3.40 GHz, 4 MB L3 SC) double 35 W is possible?

    I am wanting to also upgrade the chipset graphic crappy AMD to something like a nvidia with several graphics around 2 GB of memory or more the current model graphic chipset I have is the Radeon HD 6470 M "according to me, it has 1 GB ram graphics" dunno really, but if I can improve my graphics chipset to 2GBs or more with a graphics chipset from nvidia that would go all my games a lot better

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Phil:

    Specifications

    The top of the page compatible processor is the processor Intel Core i5-480 M (2.66 GHz, turbo up to 2.93 GHz, 3 MB L3 SC), double 35 W for your card system & chipset. Upgarding the top 2nd generation processor - to get a new Board of Directors, such as listed in the Manual: maybe it's not wise to make the fool. You can buy a new laptop with the best care.

    The 1 GB dedicated AMD graphics is the best your model series can have.

  • Pavilion G6 - 2163sr: Max RAM computer laptop HP Pavilion G6 - 2163sr

    Hello

    I want to improve my laptop for 2 * 8 GB RAM. Motherboard supports this amount of memory?

    So understand, my motherboard model is HP 183rd (U3E1) but I didn't find its specification in the web.

    Thanks in advance.

    Here's the official specs:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c03362719

    Basically, the motherboard is the laptop model. Laptops are designed of the earth upward by the manufacturer so there is no separate computer laptop itself set of specifications of the motherboard.

    The specs say 8 maximum of concerts, but it's a 3rd generation of processor Intel Core. However, the maintenance manual, which is usually more reliable than the specifications, said as 8 GB maximum and does not specify a compatible 8-gig module.

    Repair manuals

    Even Crucial said 8 maximum of concerts and they perform ongoing tests because if they can sell you larger modules they want to be able to do.

    http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Compaq/Pavilion-G6-2132tx

    So, bottom line, I think it might take 2 x 8 gig modules, but it would be a big gamble and I guess that it can take only 2 x 4 GB.

    Hello world

    I'm Kevin and im a beginner here, please help me. I have a laptop HP Pavilion DV6t-3000 Special Edition

    RAM: 8 GB (upgrade from 6 GB to 8 GB)

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi, Kevin:

    No, you can't, because your laptop computer has a chipset Intel series 5 for the i7-720QM.

  • 15 - ab032tx: Upgradation to my laptop HP Pavilion ab032tx 15 Upscaled version.

    My laptop HP Pavilion 15-ab032tx I bought last summer and is still under warranty. My laptop having the graphics card AMD Raedon R7-M360 (2 GB) and 4 GB of RAM has been upgraded for Windows 10 Home (64-bit). But now, this model is not being manufactured and a rescaled my laptop version is to say 2 GB NVIDIA graphics card and 8 GB of RAM. So can I replace my laptop with this model until June 2016 so that I can get 10 Windows Home (64 bit)? However, I know a little amount will have to be devoted to this topic, but I am willing to bear.

    Hello @Arka69,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

    I came across your post about the upgrade of the laptop and he wanted to help!

    I'm not sure that I understand your question.  You specify that you want HP to replace your laptop, with the other version and pay the difference?  Your mobile phone can support up to 16 GB of RAM, so memory shouldn't be a problem.  If you ask to contact HP to upgrade the laptop, then you can consider contacting the HP support by phone for more options.  Please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question and contact HP. If you do not live in the United States / Canada, please click on the link below to get contact information for your region.

  • The total amount of memory can put yourself in computer laptop 14-b013nr?

    I bought the 14 "computer laptop 14-b013nr.  It has 4 GB of memory in DIMM 1.  There are 2 memory slots.  This means that you can add another 4 GB of memory to the laptop?

    Hello

    It seems that the most you can install is 16 GB (2 x 8 GB Modules), but you can certainly add an another 4 GB to give you a total of 8 GB - see the website on the following link and compatible options.

    http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Pavilion%20Sleekbook%2014-b013nr&cat=RAM

    Note:  Although I do not work for HP, by looking at the degree of disassembly required - see Page 67 of your Guide to maintenance & Service - I would say that the replacement procedure will most likely void any warranty you may have on the machine.

    Kind regards
