Envy 17 n100nl: HHD Upgrade with SDD/warranty

Hallo,

Just got my new n100nl Envy 17, and I'm plannig to upgrade the 1 TB 5400 hd with an SSD, one.

I would like to know if it is possible to make changes to the material on this model personally without problems for the guarantee.

If not, is it possible to do the harware upgrade in an accredited centre?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Here is the Service Manual:

Manual

Not the upgrade easier in the world but not the most difficult or the other. See p. 34. You must remove the back cover.

HP said that you are allowed to make a disc ssd update on models that are technically not end-user accessible like yours, and as long as no damage is done, the guarantee will be not taken away.

So, you CAN do it yourself, or if after reviewing the manual, it seems too much for you, you can have the upgrade performed by a technician of your choice. The Service Center will not make it free and I don't know they will install 3rd party party for you and their SSDS tend to be very expensive and there will be a limited choice menu. If you do it yourself or you did, you can install whatever it is compatible and probably come out before many dollars.

Post back if you need help more with reinstalling software, SSD selction, etc..

    Hello

    There are two parts: hardware and software. For hardware, it will take 5 to 10 minutes, but for the software that can take several hours, days or even weeks. To shorten the task of software, my suggesion: order the recovery disks on HP and put your machine into factory settings. You can continue from there.

  • 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).

  • Satellite A500-1GL upgraded with keyboard backlight, but do not work

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba A500-1GL.
    I wanted to upgrade with a backlit keyboard, so I went to an authorized Toshiba reseller in my area (Portsmouth, UK) and after checking the laptop, they said yes, it supports a backlit keyboard and it cost around 90 pounds (about 140 dollars) the price of the backlit keyboard and the cost of installation.
    So I said okay, let...

    But the keyboard does not work!
    I went back to the place where I bought, and I asked the guy (yet) "are you sure that my laptop takes in charge the backlit? ... He said yes, and in fact he removed the keyboard and showed me 2 connectors (one to attack the keyboard and fix the lighting cable)

    Then. My computer supports portable backlit keyboard... But it's not working!
    I tried to reinstall the package added value, Flash card... Chipset... almost anything!
    But it still does not (it should work when I click Fn + Z)

    What can I do now?

    I can't return the keyboard, because the guy said "sry its now use!
    So, what should I do? Is there something I should install/remove I'm missing or what?

    Any help will be appreciated...

    See you soon.

    Hello

    What to say either the technician has done something wrong or the laptop is not extensible.

    As far as I know the keyboard lighting is controlled by the BIOS.
    In my case, I can disable and enable it in the BIOS.

    I don't know if your BIOS contain this option, but you could check it
    Please note that each model of mobile phone is supported and some BIOS each BIOS is different.

    In my opinion if the BIOS does not support this feature you so would not be able to activate the lighting, even if the keyboard has been installed.

  • P50/P70: Upgrade with WWAN later is not possible anyway?

    Hello

    So maybe this is already known by everyone in the world, but me. As the P50/P70 come pre-installed with no WWAN module, but with the antennas and cables already present antenna, presumably it can be upgraded with the WWAN module when it becomes available?

    Now, that seems in German (item 38): http://www.notebookchat.com/index.php/topic, 55724.30.html

    For those who don't read German no, here is a rough translation of what the author/reviewer to Notebookcheck.com, Andreas Osthoff, wrote:

    "

    Hello everyone, we have now a statement from Lenovo on the LTE modems:

    "The current P50 ThinkPad and Thinkpad P70 are unfortunately NOT" WWAN (LTE) READY "even though that some models were already pre built with the necessary antennas. As it seems at the moment - probably not it is possible that an option of post-installation WWAN (ETL) for P50 ThinkPad and ThinkPad P70 will come.

    The reason:

    The WWAN (LTE) module works at a frequency of 2133 MHz, the same as the used Skylake CPU with @ 2133 MHz DDR4 memory. This causes "interference" to occur, i.e. superposition phenomena when radio waves collide.

    "

    He also wrote that the P50/P70 will be delivered with WWAN/LTE April pre-built options.

    For me, the P50 Thinkpad more like a product rushed. The bad thing for Lenovo, it is their top-of-the-line Workstation laptop series.

    I'm still hoping that this statement was made to someone at Lenovo who didn't know what he was talking about, but knowing the bandwidth of the LTE channels 2.1 GHz, it seems likely that the statement is correct.

    So Lenovo: Is the information which the above correct?

    If so, what CAN be installed in the WWAN slot, now that the antennas are already pre-installed, considering that you are using a whitelist for WWAN modules?


  • What it takes to upgrade with?

    Hi, I have a hp G62 XF230EA #ABU (I'm guessing that this is the model # because I can't find any others). It has 3 GB of RAM and 320 GB HDD with i3 350 processor, and I wonder what would be the maximum RAM upgrade with a sensitive SSD to replace the HARD drive based on the processor which I won't replace because I have an another laptop with an i5 and better spec than the G62 and want to keep costs as low as possible for these upgrades. Somehow, this G62 became a toy so want me to upgrade and started messing around with linux with the vision to use it as breaking a core staff and to make all the mistakes on a computer it is spare. Thanks for reading and advice are greatly received.

  • Help on vSphere 6 upgrade with a SSO strategy internal-> external PSC

    I would ask an idea and help on what and how to revamp our vsphere infrastructure.

    We have an environment that grow very fast in the last 2 years... from a Center unique vcenter/infrastructure for our server environment us growth data center 2 main + 1 small site with a 2nd arriving within a few months, and probably a good number of branches.

    Our main data center 2 are configured with vCenter 3 5.5:

    (1) our main Server vCenter

    (2) our Horizon vCenter for VDI

    (3) a vCenter dedicated to a separate set of servers for a specific project

    All the vCenter are now 5.5u2, but in the past our VDI vSphere still was 5.0, while the rest was upgaded to 5.1 and 5.5.

    The 3) is an environment dedicated with some software/configuration that could conflict or be managed in a way different from our current infrastructure (this ban could remain in an earlier more time for example).

    All these vCenter are configured with a SSO Multisite separated by the environment, so we have a Multisite SSO for server, 1 for VDI and 1 to 3).

    Our vCenter have the PSO and all integrated services in the windows server and a database of separate SQL Server for each of them.

    Verification of certain documents on the vSphere 6 that I noticed that it seems that we have a setup that has somehow changed and thinking about the future and the implementation of new products, I would like to understand how we could manage these infrastructure and how we can join it.

    In this document http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2108548 it seems that manage sites that have integrated the PSC and vCenter Server on the same host is not a recommended way, thinking at least about our vCenter Server main (2 different in 2 sites) infrastructure, we must separate the PSC making external.

    Should we move the SSO outside our 5.5 infrastructure server now before moving on to 6 so that we could improve PSC external SSO and just update our vCenter server or there's a way during the upgrade to the PSC on an external server (such as installing on a new server and migrate SSO to external PSC)?

    Think in the future, we probably want to unify the PSC and use the same servers PSC (2 ha with a LB probably in each site). It is possible during the upgrade a server vcenter Server to migrate from the SSO server/PSC is using another?

    If you want to go out of style incorporated into the external PSC; currently during the upgrade you can not change this IE if it integrated with 5.5 and then it will continue in embedded mode. Future update could be an option / tool to move to external embedded mode PSC post upgrade (this tool is nevertheless do you updated or not; deployment embedded 6.0 can be converted into vCenter pointing to external PSC).

    From now on if you want to pass to the external PSC mode then to 5.5 installation embedded itself move first on external SSO. You can do this by installing separate SSO and re - point your existing inventory, webclient and VC than SSO service. Below KB provides details on the re-score-

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2033620

    Once you are done with the re - verse you can start the upgrade with PSC external.

  • Envy 15 k233ca: memory upgrades and hhd

    I'm trying to find out if the k233ca has a capacity of upgrade. By reading the plug here and there, the motherboard has 2 slots and there is 1 to 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3L module.

    When I called customer service to see if there was a favorite of the seller, they told me that the Ram was not expandable as the machine has only 1 location and tot of the MB does support up to 8 GB.

    Well...

    As a technician, I'm leaning towards believing the former rather than the latter, and since I did not open upward again, I checked Everest and it shows 2 slots, one with a 8 GB module and a location empty.

    Before I open the unit to find this information for me, I wondering if someone is more familiar with this device, or can point me to a more detailed specifications and current page?

    My questions are specifically,

    1. What is the model of the motherboard more precisely and will support 16 gig?
    2. This is a configuration of dual slot, so I can use 2 x 8 GB modules?
    3. Can I use a low latency Ram? replace the original module to match of course...
    4. Is there a QVL for this MB?

    Now for the HHD, a question... This machine will support SSD?

    Based on the HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC HP ENVY Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide of m7, it seems you should be able to switch to 16 GB of RAM and an SSD as follows;

    Memory

    Two SODIMM slots
    Support of the DDR3L - 1600 MHz Dual Channel
    Supports up to 16 GB of RAM in the following configurations:

    ● 8192 MB total memory (4096 × 2)
    ● 8192 MB total memory (8192 × 1).
    ● 12288 MB total memory (8192MB 4096)
    ● 16384 MB total memory (8192 × 2)

    ● 1 TB (5400) 9. 5 mm + 256 GB SSD SATA in m2 (MLC)

    Please note that it requires an extensive disassembly and reassembly of the computer to make these improvements, including

    remove, replace or loosening the screws up to 83. Also, note that other RAM/HDD/SSD configurations can run on this computer. It may be possible to have a facility that includes 16GB of RAM, a standard SATA III SSD and/or m2 SATA SSD card, but you will have to experiment to see specifically what works on your model.

    What cards are best for this system?

    What has changed in the BIOS or other settings I should do?  How can I get them?

    Thank you

    Art

    The PCIe MXM slot is for HP install graphics cards in some models CTO (configure-to-order). Without the card installed when you purchased the computer, there the fan and radiator bad sets. You will need to buy a graphics card and the heatsink / fan of HP to try to upgrade the GPU in your computer. There is an extensive disassembly involved in this procedure. All-in-One computers have much more in common with laptops than they do with traditional desktop computers.

    Honestly, if you want to do video processing and games... you should get a traditional desktop with enough CPU and GPU for these activities.

  • HP ENVY laptop - 15-k220nr: upgraded wireless HP ENVY laptop-15 k220nr.

    Hello

    My laptop came with Intel AC card 3160 WiFi, but it is buggy and fall on and outside. I think of him replacing Intel AC 7260, which should be better.

    http://www.Amazon.com/Intel-7260-HMWG-R-Wireless-AC-Bluetooth-mounting/DP/B00MY9S692/ref=sr_1_1?IE=U...

    They are the same size, I don't know if there will be a few problems or not if I do this? In addition, the led are compatible? I get full speed AC1200?

    Thank you

    I can now confirm that the adapter Intel Wireless AC7260 sector works PERFECTLY in a HP Envy 15t, specifically an HP Envy 15-k220nr (4720MQ plant, 8 GB of Ram, Intel i7 installed Intel Wireless 3160 adapter).  It works with Windows Pro 10 x 64 great - I can't speak for Windows 7/8/8.1 that I updated before installing (which I recommend), but I expect that it works on Windows 8/8.1 for sure and probably on Windows 7 without problem.

    I bought the card on Amazon; the model is "Intel network 7260.HMWG. R' - the. R is important because it is a revised version of the chip with improvements on the original.  It is, by the Intel reports, the same card SKU 7260.HMWWB. R - different SKUS simply represent different packages.  Check it out at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MV3N7UO

    At the time I did, the cost of the card was $26.50.  It is a Mini PCIe card, which is the type of the computer used.

    It's a surprisingly simple upgrade.  I have simply shut down my computer, which has been already upgraded to Windows Pro 10.  As with all facilities, follow control measures for static (white room, wrist band), that screws follow-up go where (easier in this case because they are mostly identifcal when disassembly of the machine) and general practices for the maintenance of a system.  I would not recommend this upgrade is done by an amateur - it's a more complex installation, since you need to access the motherboard and remove the housing rather than simply to open a port on the underside of the computer.  That said, for having to open the base unit, it is a process very easy (relatively speaking) with this laptop.  It is useful that the repair is very complete.  Be careful, because if you are not an authorized service provider and your computer is under warranty, you may void your warranty by opening the machine.  In addition, don't forget to keep the old card to allow you to reinstall and restore your computer to care factor if you need to send in warranty repair or want to sell it but keep the new card.

    It took my about 20 minutes to take it apart, install, test and go back.  Before you BEGIN, download the new drivers, you'll need - HP drivers are working, great and I always go with the current manufacturer on the OEM drivers drivers when possible because they are often optimized for the system.  You can also download download.intel.com drivers, but I would recommend get the driver WLAN wireless network current HP download page (http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-ENVY-15-Notebook-PC-series/7527530/model/7685078#...).  This card, looking for the same drivers regarding the AC-3160 card because they use the same drivers.  Download the TWO the WLAN and Bluetooth drivers - to date, the drivers have been updated on 15/10/15 and are:

    • Bluetooth of Intel driver, version 18.1.1525.1470 [email protected]
    • Intel Wireless Driver, version 18.12.0.3 Rev.P

    After downloading the drivers, put them on your desktop or somewhere else easy access that you will need them as soon as you restart the installation and the wireless NOT work initially, following so if you do not have the drivers you have given to get them through a wired connection or another computer.

    I disassembled the machine by the Service Manual (http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04510889).  Remove the battery and basic housing, disconnect the cables in water for the fingerprint sensor, the mouse and the keyboard and back on top of the basic coverage and put it against the monitor.  BE CAREFUL - this shifts the center of gravity of the computer and makes the computer to tip backward as I learned when I got mine from flipping back off of the table, I was working on - just be careful.

    After opening to the top of the enclosure, installation is incredibly simple.  The WLAN card is located at the back of the computer to the Middle - back where the hinges of the screen connect computer, centered between them.  You just pop off the two wireless antennas (YES - this laptop, despite the expedition with AC only 1 x 1 wireless card options, IT has two antennas installed at the factory, so it can support fully a card 2 x 2), then remove the screw from the card in place.  The map is displayed; bring him back (help little fingers - I have big hands and it was difficult because card is pressed against the back of the case) and pop out.  Insert the new card, tap it down, screw and reattach the antennas, making sure that the wire connected to the 'hand' on the original card is connected to the 'hand' on the new map, and the wire of "to THE" relates to "to THE.  On my computer, the black wire is the main antenna, the gray wire was the second antenna.

    If you're like me, after installation, you can set reconnect the keyboard/mouse/finger print sensor and reboot the machine before screwing everything together to make sure it works.   Just be careful if you do this.  When you restart, wireless will not work.  Run the installation programs for the drivers that you downloaded at the beginning of the year - I found install the dirver wireless, then bluetooth driver works better.  After installation and reboot, everything should work fine, including bluetooth.  I have had absolutely no problem with everything to work.

    Now the fun part: performance.  The map is hands down more quickly then the motherboard.  2 x 2 MIMO broadcast practically double your performance to download (assuming you have at least to AC1200 router that supports speeds of that card is).  I use an ASUS AC1900 RT-AC68U, a great router is worth every penny.  Speedtest.NET, my laptop on the wireless now easily continues with my internet service 60MBPS, going as fast as my wired connection (with the old card, he maxed out at around download 50MBPS; with the new card, it uses bandwidth full, closer to 70MBPS for us.)  Download speeds were around 4, 5-5 Mbps, to be expected in view of our internet service.

    File transfers are literally about twice as fast as prerequisites for the upgrade.  I supported sustained more than 8 Mbps download speeds when there are about 40 feet from the router with 3 walls and other elements of the way.  File transfer speeds are great, more 40MBPS transferring files to my NAS, compared to close to 20 with the original map (also from 40 feet with 3 walls and other obstacles).

    Overall, the performance is much better that the original card, as expected, the installation is simple and quick, and everything works perfectly.  I highly recommend this upgrade.
