EliteBook 840: I want to change my 256GB SSD 1 TB

I have the laptop above with 256 GB SSD, but I know it will be short of capacity. I said that I can adapt it with 1 TB of RAM using a Sata 1 TB of sandisc x400m.2 high speed SSD. Or a sandisc x 400 1 TB 2.5 Sata SSD. Please can someone advise what disk will be

You do very well, Madam.

Done, I have a very similar laptop, the Zbook 15 G3 and mine came with just a hard drive and I have since added an SSD and a WSSD m2 as well as a video card so I am familiar with what you can do and how you should proceed.

Here is the Service Manual:

Manual

See the diagram on page 41. The dark rectangular thing is a hard drive 2.5 inch or a solid state, interface SATA drive and the thinnest thing rectangular to the left of the one with the image showing how to turn the screw on it imposed is the smallest HDD type m2:

Your laptop takes the variety M.2 WSSD SATA drive or card PCi - e (NVME) friendly. On that, everything you think is quick (SATA) and more rapid (NVME). The two options of Sandisk that inquire therefore represent examples of the greatest thing dark or the smallest disk. If you replace the smaller disk, you will have to reload the software above. If you simply add one disk 2.5 inch you can just stick in there and use it to store and move your documents, photos, etc. on him. This is the setup I have. My OS is on a 256 m2 NVME concert and then I have an inch of 500 gig 2.5 SATA SSD for storage. A lot for me, but you feel that you need 1 TB.

So, go, if your adding a 2.5 inch drive is HP you provided with the mounting hardware you need to install the player. Given that my laptop came with a 2.5-inch disk, he understood that the material. Given that you did not include a 2.5 drive inches maybe yours has not.

So, if you can clarify what you want to do. If the reinstallation of the software is something you certainly want to just add a record 2.5 inches.

  • HP Elite Book 840 g1: change the RAID on AHCI on Elitebook 840 g 1

    I have an Elite book 840 g1. I'm changing to AHCI RAID and cannot get it done. I tried everything on the web regarding the registry settings and changes to the bios. Nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

    Solution to change RAID AHCI on an HP EliteBook 840g 1

    My EliteBook 840 g 1 does not have a CD/DVD drive, so I put my software available on a USB stick and this worked great.

    1. back up your PC or important documents.

    2 put the software available on CD/DVD or USB depending on one you plan to use.

    3. close all programs and restart your PC.

    -C' is where it gets difficult.

    4. enter in the Bios by pressing the ESC key

    5. make sure you change your boot order / put USB or CD/DVD first in order - depending on what you are going to use

    6. once in the BIOS go to the 'Advanced tab' and then 'Device Configurations '.

    7. go to RAID/AHCI and switch to AHCI

    8 save the settings and exit.

    -C' is where it gets trickier.

    9. THIS CRITICISM IS - after save and exit the BIOS of the PC will start start - don't let it throw - back in the BIOS before it starts

    10. once in the BIOS, go to the boot options and select the option that you put your software available.

    11. now booting from USB or CD/DVD, you have your software available on

    12. your PC will now go through the re-imaging process and when it's done, you'll be in AHCI.

    13. you can check by going to "Device Manager" > double-click on ' controllers IDE ATA/ATAPI "and below you see"Intel 8 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller '.

    14. He verifies that you are in AHCI

    15 take advantage of the improved performance

    The extent of the change RAID on AHCI by using registry settings I couldn't get it work. I changed the starting value of several channels (msahci, istorA, istorV, etc.) and couldn't make the change happen. From my experience, I had to reimage my PC for that change to AHCI RAID. If someone has a proven solution, changing to AHCI RAID in registry settings without having to do a reimage would be what they please report them.  Thank you and I hope that all this information is useful.

  • EliteBook 840: F4 key takes computer to lock screen [number of absolute reference in Excel]

    Hi all

    Here's the question I have that I noticed on my laptop Elitebook 840, Windows 7 64-bit business management.

    When I click on F4, it takes the computer to the lock screen. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but there is a problem, because the F4 is the key in excel which is supposed to provide absolute references to cells or the "$", as many know. It has all the ineffective because now I have to type the $ manually and I do not know why it is like that.

    I already tried the bios for the Fn keys option, but it just made my Fn key wont work at all, so I had to undo this change. I looked in the bios, but could not find anything else specifically associated with the F keys, let me know if I missed something.

    Just knowing this is what happens:

    F4 - any application/program - sends me it to the lock screen

    FN + F4 - give me the prompt to a different display for multiple display configurations configurations - works as expected.

    CTRL + F4 - closed the active window (yes I did completely during this first strike), as expected.

    ALT + F4 - same as ctrl f4, also as expected.

    AFAIK there is no any other combination of F4 there, and I really prefer not having to press something with F4, whenever I make an absolute reference. I also looked in excel, but saw no option.

    Finally, it is a work computer, but I guess that our IT guys do not always use Excel, as he seemed to have little interest to fix the problem, but I don't have the ability to actually download things (like a hotkey regedit) or the software assistant HP, nor I would want to take the risk of malware (from a 3rd party) or addition of bloatware (from HP) on my new work computer.

    Any help that can be offered would be appreciated.

    Respectfully,.

    Michael

    Hi all

    I found a solution, which is probably pretty specific to my business, but in case someone of another company uses HP laptops with the following software, it might be something interesting to look at.

    Our company uses Imprivata Agent as a single sign - on a keeper and there was a glitch or user access issue which eventually cause F4 lock the computer screen. Once my COMPUTER service has been able to reinstall and reconfigure my rights on Imprivata the problem disappeared after a few business days, and F4 is finally working right.

    So if you're having for my specific problem and typical bios option does not work for you, then perhaps check some other incompatible software.

    Respectfully,.

    Anyone know why the BIOS version 01.07 (sp76235) for EliteBook 840 G3 is taken?

    Link to the BIOS:
    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=ob_167436_1 & swEnvOid = 4054

    The date is 1 January 3000 so he has obvisoly something wrong and HP do not want to install, I have deployed it to a large number of machines and would like to know what kind of questions, it is hoped.

    A new version 01.10 came out with these fixes:

    -Fixes a problem that causes the display to become visually distorted (flicker).
    -Fixes an issue where a system running Windows 7 with active hard drive encryption is unable to power (boot) after the BIOS is updated.
    -Prevents the BIOS downgraded below the 1.09 version.

    NOTE: After loading the BIOS version, older versions of BIOS may not be installed.

  • HP Elitebook 840: Can how SSD I use to replace my current HARD drive?

    My HARD drive is starting to become a little slow and I want to move to an SSD. I borrowed an empty SSD with a friend to test the speed, but it does not appear in the BIOS. It is a standard Samsung SSD that should work. Is there a problem with my computer or it's compatibility with the SSDbrand or the type problems?

    I am also looking in the upgrade from 8 GB to 16 GB of ram, can someone connect 1 stick of 8 GB of RAM that is compatible with my computer without having to replace the current 8 GB key.

    Select disk 1

    clean

    create the primary partition

    Select partition 1

    assets

    format fs = NTFS

    Assign

    Insert the 32/64-bit installation disk in the Windows 7 DVD drive. Assume that it is D

    Go to D:\boot (cd d:\boot)

    If your USB drive letter is "e" Please run bootsect/nt60 e:

    Copy Windows 7 DVD multimedia content in root USB (etc. do not put in any folder) folder

  • EliteBook 840 G3 Notebook PC: Windows 7 RAID Driver for laptop HP EliteBook 840 G3

    Hello!

    I got a (currently non-prepared) new HP EliteBook 840 G3 Notebook PC I want to drop Windows 7 (64-bit) enterprise on.  But while trying to configure the operating system via a USB stick or a DVD - ROM drive, I get the following message from the Windows installation after you click 'Install now':

    "A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. »

    If one of your great technicians could direct me to where is this driver and how to install it, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you

    Nick

    Hi, Nick.

    The problem with your laptop is Skylake chipset and lack of USB3 drivers in your windows installation media.

    Skylake chipset does not have USB2 support until after you have installed the chipset driver.

    The solution to your dilemma is to run this tool on a PC with W8.1 or W10.

    There is a readme instruction link (found in the section release notes), which will provide you with the information that needed to get the W7 to install on your PC.

  • EliteBook 840: unable to boot from usb flash

    Hello:

    I'm tempted to boot from USB drive to install a new version of Windows 7. When I press F9, I have only two startup options:

    -Computer portable hard drive

    -Computer laptop Ethernet

    The USB boot option do not appear.

    My BIOS Version is: 01.04 worm. M71 (24/02/2015)

    Note: I tested my USB key installation in the other laptop and it works very well.

    Thank you for your support.

    Yes, I know Rufus. How I said, I tried my USB in another laptop (a HP ENVY m4 laptop) and work very well. The difference is that the HP ENVY gave me the option to boot from USB and the EliteBook does not.

    I realized that, since the post, you did.

    I suggested RUFUS and EFI create setup of windows due to the startup problem, that you have with the Elitebook 840.

    It may be just what you need for this particular laptop.

    If you want this to work, then you must be flexible and willing to solve the problems.

    When you try to use an adapter Displayport to VGA or DVI DisplayPort cable / to connect a HP 2013 Ultraslim Docking station to an external monitor, the screen comes up with no signal and goes to sleep. Connection with a VGA cable, it works very well. We have been able to reproduce this problem with several new, fresh out of the box docking station. The problem occurs on all monitors that connect us, even those who work with the other Docks to see.

    It seems to be the topology of Displayport Intel is picking up on the screen and making it so that the displayport cannot be enabled without connect 3 screens.

    The old version of the Ultraslim Docking station that had 1 displayport seems to work very well, it's just the most recent version 2013 which has 2 displayports who has this problem.

    Does anyone know if there is a newer firmware or where I can disable/stop the topology Displayport to pick it up a monitor and try to do 3 screens? If this isn't the case, we will probably have to go back to USB adapters and those who are no funny.
