HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx hard drive replacement issue

Can I use any manufacturer 2.5 "disk for this laptop?    Looking to upgrade to the bigger drive.   Not sure about the sata and sata II speeds rpm or cache sizes, or if they are important.   Thanks in advance.

Currently: HITACHI HTS543232L9A300 320 GB 5400 RPM SATA 2.5 "8 MB Cache internal Hard Drive

Will this drive work?  HITACHI Travelstar 2.5-inch 500 GB 7200 RPM SATA II 16 MB Cache hard drive internal

You are the very welcome.

You can buy a computer laptop 2.5 "SATA II HDD from anyone.

I guess Hitachi is OK, but I'd go for it, if it was me...

  • Pavilion dv7-4285dx hard drive

    The hard drive on 2 years, Pavilion dv7-4285dx of my son is dead. It's a Samsung HM641JI, 640 GB, 5400 RPM. can anyone recommend a good replacement for this notebook drive? The new drive can we (GB) smaller than the original? Should I just stick with the same Samsung drive? Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.
    PS - I use the recovery discs just purchased from HP to restore the new drive.

    Hello

    You can use standard HDD from other providers. Nowadays people need more space, go for a larger HARD drive, it's a wise move. The recovery disc may not install on a smaller HARD disk because it will put your machine back to the factory settings.

    Kind regards.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-6110sl HARD drive driver for Windows 7 SP1 X 64 bit

    As the title says I need the driver to install Windows 7 SP1 X 64 on my

    HP Pavilion dv7-6110sl.

    When I want to install it tell me that there is no HARD drive installed or no driver not found.

    Carpe Diem!

    My problem is that I was installing from a USB key using the usb 3.0 port. Windows does not see the usb 3.0 port that I was installing of for once I moved it to the usb 2.0 port it started working. I didn't need all the drivers.

  • Pavilion dv7, 1016nr: hard drive card on HP laptop Toshiba

    I had a HP used off craigslist, because my Toshiba laptop crashed. I replaced the hard drive with the Toshiba, but now, the CPU it's again a Toshiba! He's trying to look for records that do not exist, the bitrate is mixed up, and I can't do certain things because of this!

    The operating system was the Toshiba, and I don't know what specifications are contained in the hard disk. Help, please!

    I know, but the problem is the hard disk that came with it is FULL of viruses, and I don't want to connect two of them in the same device, or even that you use at all. I'm on an allowance now, so I can't exactly buy a new, can't use both at the same time, otherwise the laptop overheats.

    I could try using Malwarebytes on that hard drive and transfer files from the old and hopefully get Speedfan to find the fan that cools this thing.

    WoW! t helps a lot when you have something to talk about when things to know!

    I have that now to 1 question: what are the functions of the computer are stored in the hard drive?

    (also, is a sale "day of service", or am I just lucky?) (More ugly. Emoji. Never.))

  • HP Pavilion laptop 14: hard drive replacement policy?

    When I replace my old hdd (hard drive) again one on the support site... engineer on site will take my old hdd? is it necessary or any policy back from the old hdd can only get nine... or I have to keep my old hdd with myself...

    Please clear my doubt. Here is all of us who have gone through this process and able to clear my doubt as soon as possible. ??

    Yes, they will make you return the old drive to get a new, so HP can get any credit machine hard drive (as applicable). Otherwise how do they know that the old is really bad? This is true of every computer manufacturer.

  • Pavilion dv7 - 4263cl: hard drive problems

    Long story short, OS could not start windows with a missing BOOTMGR message, recovery disc, not work, ordered new HP recovery disks.  To cover, I ordered a new hard drive to replace it, with the same characteristics but a 1 Toshiba to.

    OK, installed the hard drive and used recovery disks at HP, but when you restart always get BOOTMGR missing error message.  Make a new recovery disk for windows 7 64 bit internet and serious on a bootable CD.  It starts, but found recovery does not list an OS system on hard drive.   Did the hard restart more once, install hardrive checked again, the cables and connections.  Took another installation of the HP recovery discs and also led a bootable disc that was to fix the problems with installing a new HHD and activation of the HHD working properly. Working always nothing. Get the same message.  Cast recovery manager got into the prompt orders and done a repair of the bootrec nothing / new. Checked the directory and found at the bottom of the list that it lists zero OS System.  So, how can I get my hard drive formatted to accept the installation of the OS? Any ideas to try, I have read and tried all the messages, I could very well on this forum.   Thank you...

    Thanks for the reply, yes my hard drive failed and I installed a new one, but after using the purchased HP recovery disc though HP, showed that a black bootmgr error saying screen was missing.

    Found on the HP disks partitioned hard drive, with windows on X:\ but was again start-up C:\ which was just a recovery image.   X drive was not complete, he lacked all the drivers and could not activate or change and C disc drive letter. I didn't know how to do this in the command prompt.

    Fixed my problem with a windows 7 installation no disc not the recovery disks that came from HP, if all goes well, they will work to reinstall all drivers to the laptop, but we'll see.  Used (computer repair) on the installation disk and it repaired the bootmgr.  Thanks anyway...

  • Pavilion dv6-6140us: Hard Drive/replacement warranty?

    I get an error Smart 'Failure Immanent' Drive, back-up immediately... and of course its been telling me this for almost 2 years now. My Question is, ' my hard drive that are covered by the manufacturer's warranty or the warranty HP? My laptop justifies more HP, but the manufacturer has a 5 year warranty on its internal hard drives and my hard drive is not yet 5 years old. The HHD I refer to has moved into my laptop at the time I bought it. Anything else you need to know? Thank you.

    ZiggyDee

    Only the car manufacturer can tell you whether or not your drive is covered by their warranty.

    You will need to contact them directly as HP has no role to play in this.

    Good luck

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive replacement

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC, and I had problems with hard disk of the guarantee period. for example I buy in 2010 and had a hard drive replaced in 2011 and 2012. Next time, he failed in 2013 (almost 11 months apart on average).

    The last time it failed, the warranty has expired so I thought to give it a try as employment through fixing/amortization of bad sector seagate software, Toshiba... that came out of Smart Drive Error.

    I use the HARD drive for some time now, but want to be ready for the next round and I don't know that he's going to be gone for good next time.

    Current HARD disk is 640 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive (replaced in 2012). HP 621046-001 manufacturer.

    When replacing, can I use ANY hard drive 640 GB? Can I use a hard drive that is higher than 640 GB? Different RPM?

    Any suggestions on hard drive?

    The recovery discs I had received with the replacement drive did not work properly. I had to use the first game I had created just after I bought the laptop.

    Thank you.

    I think that 160GB 2.5 "SATA III SSD is good for the system.
