Laptop HP 530 - HDD and RAM upgrade

Hello, I'm on HP 530 and I want to spend her hard drive.

In the specified documentation that my laptop supports only 80 / 120Gb hard drives and up to 2 GB of RAM.

Is this true? I can't RAM or HARD disk capacity.

And what type of HARD drive I should by? Is it compatible with drives 2.5 "SATA2?

I have the model with Intel 945GME chipset (p/n ke666aa #acb)

PS: Sorry for the bad English

UPD:

I thank very you much for the replies!

Yesterday I plugged the module of 2 GB of RAM and with existing 1 GB module, I have 3 GB of RAM and it works fine.

Also, I replaced my hard drive with SATA2 500 GB 7200 RPM disk and it wotks fine too!

  • Satellite L30-10 x and RAM upgrade

    Hello

    IM missing to know where and how to upgrade RAM in Satellite L30 - 10 x. I would like to switch to 2 GB (maximum) and also upgrade to vista Home premium.
    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    Hello

    To upgrade of RAM on this laptop model is very simple. Memory locations are under the memory cover. Remove cover memory placed in the lower corner of your laptop (in the middle) and you will have access to these two RAM slots.

    If you want to use max RAM I recommend to buy compatible DDR2 400/533 1 GB module with the PA3411U-1M1G part number.
    Vista upgrade should be no problem at all. On the Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > download & support, you can find the Vista drivers, tools and utilities for your Satellite L30 (PSL33E).

    Good luck!

  • HP 15-AC053TX: 15-AC053TX of HP linux dual boot and RAM upgrade question

    Hello

    I want to buy HP laptop computer 15-AC053TX for VMS running on the science of data/data. I have the following questions

    (1) will require computer support dual-boot Linux OS like Ubuntu and CentOS 64-bit?

    (2) can I upgrade RAM 16 GB? Can I pre-order with a configuration upgrade or should I upgrade later through Service to the HP customer care?

    All entries will be appreciated.

    Thank you

    It has 8 gigs in a single module, so all you have to do is add another module of 8 GB to 16. This particular model is a specific configuration and HP do not at this level off the coast of this issue of model, but you can order the same thing as a custom to order and get 16 gigs. If not upgrade memory isn't too hard on that one, and the upgrade, it'll be cheaper.

    See p. 46 here:

    Repair manuals

    Manual specifications say it tops out at 8 gigs, but this has been proven incorrect and tackling the 16 concerts if you put two x 8 concert DDR3L-1600 modules.

    Yes, you can dual boot a modern Linux distribution. Ubuntu 64 bit 15.04 and 15.10 will work off UEFI and Secure Boot for example and allow you to install right next to Windows 10 using the grub bootloader to choose your operating system at startup.

  • Example: Pavilion 15-n201ax: gpu and ram upgrades

    Hello, I want to k now can I put my laptop (Pavilion 15-n201ax) gpu and ram? Thanks in advance!

    Number on the GPU. You already have the top of the page mother/processor board and there is no way to add or replace it with a better graphics in any system. On memory, you have 8 GB. This is the Manual:

    Link repair manuals

    Officially, the maximum is 12 concerts but here users have reported success with 16. You do not have an easily accessible memory Bay and you should have an open memory slot to add a SO-DIMM DDR3L-1600 to upgrade memory. I seriously doubt you will see much of a difference, but I have 16 gigs in my laptop then I say, go ahead.

    If you need assistance more let us know.

  • The SSD and RAM upgrade

    I have the 13-inch Retina Display early 2015 model. It contains 128 GB SSD and 8 GB of RAM.

    I wanted to update both of them. Is this possible? I agree with HARD drive even if that is supported. 128 GB is not enough for me actually.

    Help, please.

    Without the SSD and RAM are both not upgradable.

    One option is to sell your computer and use the money to buy a new one with the features you need.

    There are two options to add an HD card to your card HD slot. Both options will be flush with the case.

    Here's the product specifications for the HP Pavilion p6717me desktop PC.  Based on the specifications, there are 3 things that you could upgrade to improve the performance of your game (and global).  I have them listed in the recommended order.

    1 update RAM: your unit comes with 4 GB of RAM, you should move it to 8, 12 or 16 total (16 GB MAX).

    2 GPU (video card) update: I highly recommend the upgrade of your GPU.  You can get any PCI Express x 16 card which physically fits in the slot.  The only limitation here is your power supply (PSU) offering only 300W of power.  Most of the best graphics cards require a minimum of 450-500W of power.   The power supply is a standard ATX power supply, so you should be able to upgrade easily if you want to upgrade the video card.

    3 update CPU: your device comes with an Intel i5 CPU and it could be upgraded to an i7 processor.  Models and information are listed in the connection of the plug above.

  • problems with wireless after the motherboard, cpu and ram upgrade adapters

    As the title says, I have recently updated my card mother, cpu and ram (increased from Asrock extreme6 z77/i7 3770 k/Kingston 8 gb hyperx for EVGA ftw/i5 z97 4670 k/g. Skill ripjaw x 16 gb). I always use the same installation of Windows 7 64 via the same SSD. After I was installing new equipment, I used the disc that comes with the motherboard and installed all the drivers that were available (twice, just to be safe). All the features of the OS I had before seem to be there except to exit Device Manager to correctly install the drivers for my wireless (Linksys AE1000 and TP Link N900) adapters. I downloaded the current driver for the Linksys Web site and I have the disc for the TP-Link and I tried several times to install, but keep the same message ' Windows found driver software for your device, but has encountered an error trying to install it. Device Manager recognizes the device and it is not any question of State symbol (IE yellow triangle, etc.) that is displayed in conjunction with an adapter. I tried disable/re-enabling and uninstall/re-installing times and keep having the same problem. I tried to search in several forums of people with similar problems, but none of the resolutions seem to work or are suitable for my situation. Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    When you upgrade your motherboard, cpu and ram, drivers for particular devices may not be related to other drivers. That's why I suggest you to install all the drivers for the chipset from the manufacturers website and see if that helps.

  • The upgrade of the MacBook (13-inch, mid 2010) HDD and RAM

    Hi all!

    Before I get started here are my system specs:

    MacBook 13 inch, mid-2010 (white)

    Model: A1342

    Processor: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 320 M 256 MB

    Serial number: 451244SHF5W

    Software: OS X El captain

    OK here's what I've done the research and understand from my research since a page archived Apple.com, ifixit.com and crucial.com and some comments I've read as well:

    According to ifixit.com, saying that most of this computer can manage is a 750 GB hard drive, yet I go to Crucial.com and when I look at the SSD (which I can't afford) says that this computer can be installed with a 1 TB SSD. Does this mean I could install a hard 1 TB? This computer can manage a second 500 GB hard drive at all? My second Question is in what regards the memory now, I go to apple.com page archived and is no longer being updated by Apple, it says most who manages this computer is 2 GB to 4 GB. I am not convinced. Is not possible to move to 8 GB to 16 GB or more on such a system? I'm just curious, I bought this from a seller on eBay who reconditions the Apple laptops and I bought this for a member of the family. If none of these improvements are possible I send this computer back and get my money back. Thanks for the help. I need a response as the end of today! AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

    It's the right information:

    A model of Macbook 2010 7 identifier, 1 will support up to 16 GB of RAM (download the OWC)

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/upgrade/DDR3_Wh ite

    You can install a SATA HDD/SSD currently available that are 2 TB of capacity.

    You can install a "data cube" instead of for a second HDD, but as this Macbook DVD drive can have a 2 TB of HARD disk installed, I see little interest to do unless you have an extraordinary amount of data.

    Ciao.

  • Upgrade the HDD and RAM

    Hello

    I have a HP dv7-3085dx (product no: VM188UA #ABA) and I need to upgrade my hard drive to an SSD & increase my RAM. currenlty I have 500 GB hdd & 6144 MB ram DDR3.

    1. Please let me know if Serial ATA III SSD (Samsung - 840 EVO 250 GB Internal Serial ATA III Solid State Drive) is compatible with my motherboard. And is it possible to use this (primary) SSD as well as my old HDD (secondary).

    2. do I need to buy additional cables for this upgrade?

    3. What is the rate of transfer of my RAM? If I could buy a compatible RAM.

    Your specific motherboard has the chipset Intel 5 series which is only capable of SATA-II. However, the Evo of 840 Samsung SATA-III will work fine and you will always see at an astonishing speed. You have chosen a good SSD (the same that I use, so I'm a little prejudiced).

    With regard to memory, this is the crucial.com on your model page showing it will take up to 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) SO-DIMM DDR3-1333.

    http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Pavilion%20dv7-3085dx

    And Yes, you can use 2 hard drives in any dv7. It will take a second drive caddy and cable available here:

    1. is there an empty space to install a second hard drive SSD?

    2. If there is not can put off the hard drive DVD and in the empty space to fit an SSD? I need something like that? ---> fb4d http://cgi.ebay.com/CF-Card-2-5-Serial-ATA-SATA-SSD-HDD-UDMA-Adapter-/190537923405?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5cf1
    This is an adapter.

    3. the quantity of RAM max supported Satellite L500D? I installed 2GB and I have an extra plug and I want to install a single 4 GB RAM and 6 GB RAM total

    Its sounds good to you this idea? I thank you and have a nice day

    Hey,.

    As you can see on the underside of the laptop doesn t supports a second HDD because there is no second Bay HARD drive on the underside.
    The map you posted is unofficial so no one can say whether it compatible s part or not. For laptops Satellite AFAIK there is no CD/DVD Bay adapter, but you can ask a provider of service authorized for more details.

    The maximum RAM capacity depends on your phone model correct. L500D was delivered with different hardware, so you must post your exact model laptop number.

  • Pavilion dv7-2050sm: SSD and RAM upgrade questions

    Hello

    I have two question about upgrading my laptop. I use it for web surfing, movies, some excellent/word work etc... for the most part on a regular basis.

    (1) I have seen that my RAM can be upgraded to 8 GB. Currently, I am working at 1333 MHz 4RAM. If I buy 2 x 4 GB 1600 MHz will it work on this laptop, I went into the BIOS and have not seen that I can change the speed of ram anywhere nor has seen how much can this support for portable computers, so should I buy 1x4Go 1333 MHz instead if it only supports 1600 MHz.

    (2) can I put my disk HARD 700 GB Seagate 5400 RPM SATA II 3.0 Gbps with Samsung 850EVO 250 GB SSD? I know that SATA III drives are retro-compatible meaning can work on SATA II but is it useful, how much speed will I use if my laptop does not support SATA III.

    Laptop computer product number: B4E42EA

    Chipset: AMD A70M FCH

    CPU: Improved A6 4460 M to 4600 M A10

    Thank you!

    It will not run at 1600 mhz just so buy another 4 GB of DDR3-1333 memory. The SSD is the best upgrade you can do. Certainly worth. SSD SATA-III will work fine on a SATA-II bus. There is very little difference in actual operation.
