HP Pavilion dv6-6060ep: question to replace HARD drive

Hello.

I would like to know if replacing the current 500 Gb Hdd with a SSD would cancel or in any way affect my warranty coverage. The laptop is a year old. Thanks in advance for any assistance of withy this question.

Hello:

There should be no problem with the warranty as long as you don't break something trying to install the HARD drive.

HP will not support the SSD however and your recovery disks don't work because the new drive must be the same size the 500 GB HARD drive you removed.

I have a workaround for the problem of recovery disk...

According to the specifications of your PC system, it came with W7 Home Premium 64-bit.

It must be in English, French or Spanish version too.

If so, download the ISO W7 Home Premium 64 bit on the link below.

Burn the file on a disk using a program that can burn ISO files so the DVD is bootable DVD burning.

Burn at the lowest speed as possible.

Then use the product key 25 character on the bottom of your laptop computer to activate the installation.

Support of your laptop and driver page visit to install all the drivers you need.

Link to downloads of MS of W7.

    Mick,

    Hello

    You have the best player for the laptop, you may have. You can use conventional disc (up to 500 to 750 GB), but none of them are as fast as the solid state drive. I guess that the laptop is a dv7-4000 series. This laptop does not support SATA III connection because a SATA III SSD is the only drive faster than what you got.

  • I have a Pavilion dv6. The test of hard drive reads: SMART Long DST passed, short DST passed, and failed.

    I have a HP Pavilion DV6 and it will DISPLAY, allow me to connect, and then reading welcome with the busy symbol, then the screen goes black.  My pointer always recognizes the touchpad and moves accordingly.  I've performed memory tests and received the following errors

    Failure ID: PU56W2-5KL62G-XD0141-61F103

    Product ID: LK469UA #ABA

    Hard drive 1

    Test drive: FAILURE

    It comes after the memory test, said this lower slot 2 failed.  I don't know what happened, but I want to be sure, I replace the components just before that I'm going to spend a lot of $.  All the tips are greatly appreciated.

    The hard drive LK469UA ID is used in the HP PAVILION DV6-3236NR NB PC US

    Assuming this DV6 is an American product, it's DV6-3236NR specifications

    There's an alert about the products of hardware for the DV6-3236NR, for the SATA (Serial ATA) hard drive controller here.

  • Pavilion dv6-1030us: there is no hard drive

    I have a dv6-1030us which today would not initialize, said that no boot device and the hard disk do not exist.  Works very well yesterday, without any hard disk problems.  I have the original recovery disks that I created when I got the machine.  When I put disc 1 one number, it says windows copies the files, then a status bar continuously appears above the copyright of microsoft thingy.  The status bar continues to flow as he do something and not going anywhere.  If I insert recovery disk number 2 nothing happens, even if I insert the disc number 2 and try to restart.  Any ideas or is it time to go shopping

    It seems that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced. Laptop SATA hard detail can be used. Just be sure to get a quality at least equal the original in order to use recovery disks. It may be big, but not small ability more. For example if you have a 320GB hard drive you can use a 500 GB hard drive but not a hard drive of 250 GB. The main problem you will have to avoid is that latest hdds Advanced Format (AF) will cause major problems and probably a return for Vista recovery disks.

  • Question of replacement hard drive HP s3720y

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Slimline s3720y with Windows Vista installed.  My hard drive needs to be replaced and I have a Seagate Barracuda 7200.11.  Will this work with my computer?  My plan is to restore my computer to the new hard drive with the system restore disks and then upgrade to Windows 8.  Are there compatibility problems?  Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello:

    If the replacement of the hard disk you have is less than 2 TB and has a SATA interface, then it should work fine.

    Regarding the W8, it is difficult to say whether or not it will work normally on your PC.

    You can go to download W8 and before you actually buy it, he runs a check of compatibility on your PC.

    Even if it passes there is no guarantee that the system will work.

    There is no drivers for W8 on the assumption of your PC and driver page, so the upgrade will be risked.

  • Pavilion dv6 3080el - sistem recovery after hard drive change

    Hello world!

    I have a pavilion laptop dv6 3080el with windows 7 and after the HARD drive that basically, I bought a disc double, specifically BLACK (2) WD Dual Drive.
    I used the DVD I reinstal windows using system recovery, but after I put in the DVD 5 and pressed "continue" to restart the system, I just get (after the first screen where by pressing ESC, you go to the Start Menu) wrote a black screen with "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".
    Any suggestions on how I can complete the installation of windows?

    Thank you!!!

    I just went through this same problem. See the solution posted under the message topic "pavilion dv-6 3216 does not start.

    Good luck.

  • Pavilion HPE-180 t: Compatible replacement hard drive

    My Pavilion Elite HPE-180 t (p/n: BN515AV #ABA) began to crash randomly.  Software support tells me the HD is a failure.  Error code: BIOHD-2

    The HD which came installed is a HITACHI HDS721010C.  Operating system is Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I did not rush the hardware changes to the computer with the exception of a system recovery to factory specifications.

    Shifter2k4, welcome to the forum.

    The main thing is to buy a hard drive that is the same size or larger than the failed drive.  This ensures that the recovery of the system will work.  I like the Western Digital drives.  If you want to speed up your computer, you could buy an SSD.  If you go this way, you will need at least 160 GB.  I love the Samsung SSD drives.

  • Pavilion dv6: I did now the hard drive on my HDD test failed and the pavilion dv6

    The problem is that my laptop when I start it it takes like 10-15 minutes to load.

    I see loading windows xp logo and then he is suspended for more then 10 minutes or more.

    Now, I tried to do a test for the material. I turn on the laptop and click the F2 key and I entered the test screen of hp hardware. I moved start test drive hard and after 5-10 seconds or if stopped with a test failure:

    That's what I see now on the screen of the laptop:

    Test Drive: 1

    INTELLIGENT control: PAST

    DST short: FAILURE

    FAILURE ID: 64WE1A-5BC7Q7-XD003F - 60Q 903

    PRODUCT ID: XE041EA #ABT

    Hard drive 1

    Edit:

    I tried now all the other tests in the F2 screen, and they all went except the short DST hard drive that has failed.

    Better to buy a new hard drive and replace it with this one and I install the new OS on it own?

    Test drive: FAILURE

    Does that mean ID failure? I need to replace with a new hard drive? If so can I buy a new hard drive and replace it only with myself?

    I did no other reviews but I want to first of all understand what it means to id of failure.

    Hello

    The hard drive is faulty defiantly and Yes should not replace. Failure ID is given, so if your laptop is under warranty you can give this to HP and it will then allow you the replacement

    Usually the instructions on how to replace the hard drive are in the manual of your computer that you will be able to get a copy on the HP site. You can also buy the HP installation media which will be operating system files on your for reinstall on the new hard drive.

  • Pavilion DV6: Loud hum of the hard drive when burning CD

    Recently, I noticed that my laptop makes a fairly loud "buzzing" or "vibrant" sound. I encountered this problem recently when I tried to burn an audio CD. I've read about this problem on other forums of which most, explain that the cause could be due to the type of disc. I have this problem when I read from a disk. This problem could lead to the type of disc that I use?

    Hello:

    It has been my experience throughout my laptop and deskop PC DVD burners do the same racket when it burns CD / DVD, but not when it reads them as well.

    I don't think it's something to worry about.

    When burning a disc, a much more strain is placed on material that when reading a disc.

    I use Memorex or Verbatim quality disc too, and readers always sound as you said.

    One of the burners of my desktop PC is so loud, it begins to vibrate the case and I have to give him a rap on the side for the case of vibrate with the burner in the quiet.

  • Dv6-7202se replacement HARD drive

    Hi, I want to buy a replacement for my DV6-7202se HARD drive. originally, I have a 1 TB running at 5400 RPM SATA HARD drive. I am running Windows 8.1.

    My laptop is now out of its original 1 year warranty.

    (1) is it possible for me to go to a larger, faster HARD drive?

    (2) my laptop was purchased in the UNITED Arab Emirates. Where can I find the replacement HARD drive here?

    (3) my current HARD drive has a number of specific product? The official site of HP can't give me that and continues to throw messages 'no information found.

    (4) where will I get the recovery disks to reinstall the operating system on it? He came originally with Windows 8, I upgraded to 8.1.

    Thank you!

    You can certainly get a faster drive, but I think that the biggest readers available now 1.5 TB laptop and they all work at 5400 RPM. Here is your Service Manual:

    Manual

    One option you have is to install an accelerator reader WSSD/mSATA cache to speed up the slower drive. The problem on your model, it is very difficult to get to the slot of the WSSD. It is not in the Bay of accessible customer service.

    To speed up the system even more, you can install an SSD expand instead of the ordinary reader, but the largest SSD drive is a 1 to.

    Where you can get all this material in the UAE, I have no idea. I guess you can get things shipped from Europe, Asia and the United States

    In regards to the operating system, unless it does not turn right you can clone (copy bit for little) the old drive and transfer the image to the new, or we can get you a link to download an image of disk for Windows 8, which can be installed on any hard drive. The License Code is embedded in the BIOS of your motherboard, so you just need to install it and Windows will activate automatically.

    Post back if one of these options looks interesting and we can assist in its application.

  • HP Pavilion 17: mouse pad does not work after replacing hard drive

    Hello

    After replacing hard drive and installing windows 8.1, I can't use my mouse pad.

    I installed the Synaptics driver but it didn't help.

    How can I check that mousepad device is not damaged when replacing the hard drive and which also can I try to fix the mouse pad?

    USB mouse works fine.

    See you soon

    The only way to be sure is to open it up and see if the touchpad cable was disconnected during the upgrade of the hard drive. That's my bet. Easy to forget when you're winding. You don't provide complete model number, but many of the recent models Pavilion 17 require removal of the cover together to get hard disk that requires disconnection of the touchpad cable.

  • Replacing hard drive HP Pavilion g4-1015dx

    I recently acquired a HP Pavilion 1015dx g4 with a failing hard drive.

    I was wondering if this computer supports SATA III drives specifically the

    Western Digital laptop bare drives 500 GB WD Blue SATA III 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache Bulk/OEM hard drive WD5000LPVX

    Thank you!

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See page 51 for hard drive access. Note the connector that connects the bare hard drive to the motherboard. You will need to reuse the parts caddy/connector/mylar shield from the old drive.

    Your laptop SATA ports are SATA II. In most cases, if it doesn't have USB 3.0, it also doesn't have SATA III. Your don't have any USB 3.0. However, SATA-III hard disks 2.5 inches wide and 7 or 9.5 mm thick will work fine. SATA III interface is backward compatible with SATA-II.  I guess that you have chosen the WD Blue 5400 RPM drive due to their low cost, but it would be well worth an extra 10 or $15 to have a disk of 7200 RPM like the WD Black or this one:
