HP Envy 17 t Touch T8B50AV_1: Add a Blu Ray drive to an HP Envy 17 t Touch T8B50AV_1

Looking to upgrade the DVD player to a blu - ray player or maybe even a blu ray burner.

Have seen other manuals maintenance for other laptops here that include this information, but not one for the HP Envy 17 t T8B50AV_1

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you both for the quick responses!

I really appriciate the 'generic' option since it seems to be about half the price.

Sorry for the confusion on the model / product numbers...

    -The graphics card have somverybig ones and just to think in a basic GT640 or Saphire HD 7770?

    -Drives internal hard how can I add in this system?

    Here is a picture of the case.

    Thanks for your help!

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion p6-2180ea. According to the specification, this model has room for a hard drive and an optical disc drive. You will not be able to 'Add' options of one of these components, but you can replace them with upgrades. 300 watts is not going to be enough for the HD 7770 and will be marginal with the GT 640. In addition, you can hurt ask graphics cards in this case 'mini '. You have to measure along the plane of the PCIe x 16 location at the back of the housing to the front until you hit an obstacle.

    This system is not really designed for the upgrade and this can cause overheating.

    First I will say large laptop (although more frequent updates to the screen driver would be nice: D).

    The laptop was equipped with a 2 hard drives and a Max which is possible

  • Desktop HP ENVY Phoenix 810qe: Blu - ray player and SuperMulti DVD burner

    I am interested in the HP Store and want to buy HP Envy 810qe desktop. It has a 'Blu - ray player and SuperMulti DVD burner." Can I burn data and media projects of discs blu - ray recordable with this burner? I have two different answers when I talk with the Sales Department of online chat.

    If the description says "drive Blu - ray and DVD SuperMulti burner."  Then it can only burn to DVD or CD.  In the description in the "customize and buy" button is says - play music and movies, backup files and burn your own CD and DVD.

  • HP ENVY 750se desktop PC: turn around blu - ray player?

    Hello

    I just got the desktop PC HP ENVY 750se with Blu - ray burners and burner DVD SuperMulti burner.

    Everything works fine. My problem is the orientation of the reader.

    It would have been better if the reader was prepared horizontally.  Not happened.  HP box should go on the right side of my desktop, drive is mounted vertically, and this is my chance that the orientation of the player opposite me who puts Assembly and disassembly of the ackward media CD/DVD/Bluray and quite a twist of the wrist excersize.

    Until I opened the box and experiement if I can go back to the disc, so he faced me, is this doable from a material point of view? Or is the disc material permanently set to this position to damndable?

    I think that my last resort is to order my office by placing the box on its side and to serve as a basis for my monitor.  If the Player cannot be reversed, ok to run the HP box on the side?

    Any help or advice appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello @Ryck,

    Thanks for the reply!

    If you place the office in a horizontal position, then the event must be correct upwards?  I don't think that should be a problem.  However, if placing the office horizontally, covers the vent, so I do not recommend it.

    I hope this helps.
