Envy 17-n100nl: Envy 17-n100nl disassemble to add ssd

Hello world

I just bought an HP ENVY 17-n100nl laptop, and I wanted to update to add a SSD memory. I know that it is possible to add it instead of the appropriate optical unit with the caddy, but I saw that another possibility would be to add to the second internal drive Bay. I'm having some trouble of disassembly of the pc: as you can see in the photo, the lower part of the PC is a continuous part (unlike many other portable HP where RAM and HARD drive are easy access) and even without caps base left and right (unlike the other Envy 17 I found instructions how to disasseble http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/productdata/Countries/_MultiCountry/disassemb... So my question is: How can I do? Are there instructions from HP (I looked in this page http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/productdata/disassemblynotebook-o.html , but none of the solutions listed for laptops ENVY 17 apply to mine).

Thank you all for the support,

Tom

I found a manual for this model HERE .  On page 31, start the instructions you are looking for.   The title is:

    Update: I thought that it was portable average size but it of a laptop thin and seems your limit at just the 1 TB HARD drive or you can swap out to a 1 TB SSD but I also what HP says about the laptop.

    "1 TB 5400 RPM SATA; Flash cache: 8 GB; The flash cache module is designed to accelerate the experience of response of the system and cannot be used as extra storage. It is not removable by and not accessible to the user. »

    So your expansion options may be limited. Much will depend on what size is the 1 TB of HARD drive that is currently in it right now you need to find an SSD that fits this same dimension to replace the original HARD drive that is there. But what they have now is 1 TB SSD and SSD 2 TB are quite expensive and I do not know how it dimension compared to the CT 1 SSD drives.

  • I have a HP envy j000 and I installed an SSD.

    I have a HP envy j000 and I installed an SSD. If I look at MYPC, it doesn't have the installed ssd. If I look at the Device Manager it shows the installed ssd. What's new?

    The SSD is probably not formatted and mounted as a drive in the system. In other words, it is empty. Right-click on MYPC and choose manage... go to disk management and find the SSD. Make a new simple volume and ntfs format and then assign a letter reader and you'll be good.

  • HP Envy 17 1090eo: upgrade HDD to SSD on a HP ENVY 17 "1090eo

    Hello support HP and forums users,.

    Please clarify for me if its is possible for me to improve and replace my aging HP Envy 1090eo HHD main with an SSD.

    As the:

    Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E500 500 GB or the Kingston SSDNow V300 480 GB or the MX200 essential 500 GB ?

    is this possible or some restrictions apply such as size (GB) or limited to SATA 2... I know that the SDS is the SATA 3.

    At the moment I have 2 x Hitachi 7K 500-500 (the factory installed ones) but I'd like to get some more speed on the start and daily work with this laptop...  In regards to Hitachi storage is good but far too slow to work.

    Looking forward to your advice.

    Cloning will require 3rd party software. I use Acronis True Image Home. Some SSD Samsung come with a migration kit which includes a software disc (a version of Acronis I understand) and a usb to SATA adapter. There is a post sticky at the top of the updates Board that goes into the cloning procedure.

  • Add SSD to question dv7t-7300 HP Envy.

    I ordered a custom of dv7t-7300 HP Envy. I want to add an SSD, something along the lines of an SSD of 7.5 mm. I just need to know a few things.

    (1) given that the computer just that with a HARD drive (depending on configuration), is the second drive Bay hard to a 'HARD drive enclosure? And if so, should be 7.5 mm 2.5-inch SSD, or it must be a 9.5 mm SSD?

    (2) if the caddy is not included, where can I get one? And should it be a basket, or is it implemented different now?

    Any other information you can provide would be great! Thank you.

    Nothing like that self-help. Return it. On the back of it is a large "T" plate shaped. Remove the screws, pull it out and look inside. You have two hard drive bays. Are all dv7s to dual hard drives, but the method to connect readers varies a little.

    Manual

    See instructions starting on Page 49 of the above link Sevice manual.

    An SSD will work in each Bay. I would use the SSD as drive for the operating system to take advantage of the speed of the thing, which is really amazing to see the first time you see it. There is also a place for a WSSD, but there is no need of a GSU if you use an SSD as your primary drive. Still if you want uberstorage you could spend a ton and purchase a 256 GB WSSD and have actually three usable discs.

    Hello

    While you can certainly add another HARD drive in the Bay of secondary drive (you must also support and the connection cable) you can't boot from it - only in the Bay of primary HARD drive is bootable.

  • ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 850-065: Add the port ethernet on the desktop

    I want to add a second ethernet port on the desktop... any recommendations, the Gathas, the various factors to consider... I seem to have three ports of extension on the PCI bus... one of them would be the target (or what)... any recommendations on ethernet brand and model to consider...

    Any wisdom on the subject will be sincerely appreciated...

    Hello

    There are many models/products of ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 850-065 series. In any case, according to your description you can use a normal PCIe 1Gig card. There are a lot of cards around, 1 port, 2 ports or more. Please make sure that there are drivers CD or at least it shows you where to find driver (from the site of the manufacturer).

    It can be larger than 32 GB, but it is not the boot drive and its only real function is as a cache of acceleration for the main mechanical hard drive, for which really impossible to use something bigger.

  • HP ENVY - m7-k211dx: replaced HD with SSD again, impossible to install network drivers

    Hello

    HD on HP ENVY m7-k211dx not dead, no recoverable data. Figured why not install an SSD so replaced by a new Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB.

    Note: I have built many computers to office since the Pentium 4 days, consider myself as an amateur

    Installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit without any problems (after activating the suport inherited in BIOS)

    Downloaded all the drivers from the HP site and copied on DVD

    Record fell with drivers on the desktop

    installed the chipset driver sp73543.exe, restarted everything is fine

    Installed USB driver sp70645.exe, restarted everything is fine

    Then tried to install two network drivers downloaded for this laptop specific to HP for LAN and Wireless support Web site:

    RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE Realtek 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Drivers -sp69888.exe

    Realtek LAN (LAN) driver -sp68120.exe

    First tried to LAN, Ran exe, checked the license agreements, etc. and it started to install, after a few seconds and error message pops up:

    "FindFile failed.

    After the closure of this pop-up a new error message:

    "Realtek network controller is not found. If deep sleep Mode is activated Please cable.

    Then tried wireless installation, after that starting exe command winow popped up a few seconds showing:

    "Please wait for the installation.

    close the window after a few seconds, nothing after that

    After trying several times to install drivers with the same exact results I went by the process of reinstalling Windows and go thru the pilot again installation process with the exact same reslts. Downlaoed new drivers with same accurate results

    Clues as to what may happen?

    Thank you and my apologies for the wall of text

    Hello:

    Normally the ethernet driver will install if you do not first install the chipset driver.  Since you've done, it's a good question, why you notification of deep sleep.

    Try the driver ethernet directly from Realtek and see if it works... 3rd driver on the list.

    http://www.Realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?langid=1 & PNid = 13 & PFid = 5 & Level = 5 & Conn = 4 & DownTypeID = 3 & getdown = false

    Wireless should be easier to correct... parts list indicates that your laptop comes with an Intel 7260 AC wireless network adapter.

    I see no W7 wireless or bluetooth drivers listed for this card on the HP website for your laptop, so use the latest Intel.

    Wireless: 64-bit is the 2nd file on the left side of the Web page.

    I recently ordered this ssd sata m2 of amazon, but I'm not sure its compatible with my system - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TGIW1XG?psc=1 & redirect = true & ref_ = oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00.

    Its a Samsung 850 500 GB M.2 3.5 inch SSD Form Factor 80nm.  Can I use in a configuration to double for my laptop with the current 5400 RPM 1 TB HARD drive already in the system?  Or do I have to use one or the other?  Or can I select a smaller SSD storage for a double configuration?  I have to talk to a technician and he said my system does not support a 128 GB ssd and it did not indicate if it is a double or a single disk configuration.  In my view, it is difficult to imaging a new desire to 2015 with an i7 Quad Core skylake 6700HQ processor supports only a meagre 128 GB SSD.  Any ideas on what my system can support?

    I can verify that it works very well. I had HP technology insist that I could use only one hard disk and a maximum capacity of 128 GB. The technicians don't know squat. I use now a configuration double with the operating system and my programs on my 850 m2 sata evo III 500 GB SSD and my data (videos, music and photos) files on the preinstalled 5400 RPM 1 TB HARD drive.

  • Desktop HP ENVY Phoenix 860VX: how to replace ssd boot drive in a desktop HP ENVY Phoenix 860VX?

    I bought a desktop computer HP ENVY Phoenix 860VX with an SSD of 256 GB of disk as a boot disk with a disk of 1 TB storage.  I have a Samsung Evo Pro 500 GB SSD I want to use as the startup disk.  I cloned the original drive to the Samsung Evo without problem.  I opened the PC folder to move hard disks, and I can't find the SSD drive.  I found the pretty easy storage of 1 TB drive but cannot find the SSD drive.  Can anyone help?

    Greetings,

    You can have a PCIe M.2 (Non - SED) Solid State Drive 256Go.

    This drive connects to the motherboard, it's the size of a stick of gum.

    It can be mounted vertically or stand flat on the motherboard (MB).

    M2 the drive is much faster than an SATA 3 SSD.  You may not be happy with this change if you bought a SATA 3 SSD. You might be better off going to a 512 GB m2 if the MB supports. I noticed that the m2 drive runs closer to the rated speed when using a k i7 - 5930 or an i7-5960 x due to the track of 40 PCIe bus as opposed to 28 tracks on the i7-5820 k.

    It should be close to the PCIe slots. ASRock, Asus and Gigabyte locate M.2 slots here as it connects with the bus PCIe x 16 and uses the bandwidth of one of the 16 slots x.

    If this is true, install the SATA SSD in the available Bay HHD using an adapter 2.5 inches. Then change the default boot device in the BIOS for the SATA SSD. You may need to experiment on what SATA port you use. EFI can be finicky. It is also possible that you may have to reinstall the original image. I have an Asrock x 99 card in m.2. Asrock BIOS is much more forgiving and configurable. I'm not familiar with MB of your PC or the boot configuration options available during the passage of a m2 boot device to a boot SATA device.

    This change of equipment could also ruin to restore the PC using the original image. It depends on whether this change of equipment is a configurable option to purchase.

    See you soon!
