On the hardware upgrades on EliteBook 8560w

Hello. Can I use the HP 1 TB SATA 7200 RPM hard drive(L3M56AA) or only the HP 256 GB SSD M.2 2260 PCIe drive(L3M57AA) to upgrade my laptop. Thank you!

Hello

According to the specifications, you can use both.

In two specifications, mobile HP workstations ZBook 14/15/17 is showed, in your 8460w only in L3M57AA.

The official info suggests parts are:

750 GB, 7200 RPM 633252-001
500 GB, 7200 RPM 634926-001
320 GB, 7200 rpm, Self white 626978-001
320 GB, 7200 RPM 641672-001

Disc SSD of 256 GB 653435-001
Disc SSD of 128 GB 653434-001

Your laptop will lose the battery with 1 TB of HDD.

I propose to use the low capacity of HDD/SSD and buy a due external HARD disc is better to keep out portable (personal) data for security proposal, HDD can fail, notebook might be stollen...

Summary: The best solution isn't HP 256 GB SSD M.2 2260 PCIe drive(L3M57AA) and external HARD drive (SSD)

  • A few questions regarding the hardware upgrade and the games on Satellite Pro 2100

    Hey,.

    I thought that posting this here because it's more about the lines for the games I could think on another topic.

    I'll get to the point... Basically, I bought a laptop from a guy that my friend knew. He barely used this laptop and didn't know anything about computers, and he tried to avoid as much as possible. So he got rid of this laptop for me for real cheap.

    Now I got it, I had expected either of two things with the laptop.

    (1) what I'll use it so I can sit in his bed and travel a little bit while having files, movies, music and internet access. (it wasn't my main idea)

    Or

    (2) it allows to play video games on it, or to update, so I have a better chance to do so.

    I was hoping to get for video games, mainly for my brother to use because his computer is lagging a lot while playing world of Warcraft. I was hoping that this notebook would give him a better experience for a while.

    But as I was installing the game on this, I noticed that the disk space is low, so I'm going to buy an external hard drive, so I can send files between the PC and the laptop, and I got an error message saying that the RAM was under "minimum requirements" for WoW.

    So I know that I got to level it with something big, but I know not what, so I'm not quite sure that this laptop will run the game at a decent rate. So I thought that I turn to a computer forum and ask.

    It's my laptop;
    [Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 45659 ie]

    This laptop will do the job don't you think?
    Or it will be better for simpler things, or less if I had the ram to 1gig?

    I don't know much on the laptop, and I'm not really willing to spend too much on fixing, if it's just a change of the ram, then it wouldn't cost much for than to upgrade around 1gig.

    Hello

    First of all, I must say that this notebook belongs to an older series laptop.
    It was equipped with the 1.8 Celeron CPU, 256 MB RAM, 20 GB or 30 GB HARD drive and a 16MB graphics card internal.

    What you can do is upgrade the RAM up to 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) and the HARD drive. But I think that the maximum size of HARD drive that would be recognized by the BIOS is 120 GB.
    I think that the laptop supports one IDE controller and it limited because of the 28-bit LBA HARD drive size.

    So finally, it is important to mention that you can not pass the graphics card because it s soldered onto the motherboard. Upgrading the CPU is not possible or very difficult.

    I come to the conclusion that you will not be able to play games of new generation on this machine. The hardware specs are maybe too low a few simple games would run on this laptop but I'm sure that other newer games will not run smoothly.

  • The hardware upgrade

    I have a hp pavilion m9800me desktop pc. I thought about upgrading the hardware.
    is this possible? I would like to upgrade the video card. the default video card that came with the pc is ati radeon hd 4650 1 GB ddr2. the operating system is windows 7 64 bit.

    Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion Elite m9800me desktop and it is card mother IPIEL-A3 (Eureka3). According to specifications, your computer has a location of graphics PCIe x 16 (currently occupied by the HD 4650) and 3 PCIe x 1 for other cards slots. The computer has a 300 watt power supply which limits your choice of graphics for the low-end models. If you want to run mid-level in the class of game cards, you will need to upgrade your diet as well. The Corsair CX500 and CX600 are great choices and known to adapt to most cases of HP. Please see from Dave G "Guide to choose a discrete video card" for more information on this subject. Alternatively, you can upgrade the memory and the CPU in your computer as follows:

    Memory:

    Four DDR3 DIMM sockets (240 pin)

    Supports DIMM DDR3 2 GB modules

    Supports dual channel memory architecture

    Supporting speeds:

    PC3-8500 1066 MHz

    Hello

    Thanks for posting the number of product for your microphone HP Tower.  I ask HP to display the specifications that the other members of the community will benefit from the information.

    I'll ask a moderator to remove the serial number posted.

    I'll see for additional information that I can find.  These basic featuresare displayed on the internet.

    Your first consideration should be Support HP or HP sales during the consideration of upgrades or replacement of memory. If you want to consider other manufacturers of the best way to avoid memory problems is to contact one of the leading manufacturers of memory. I would recommend that you try the tools of these manufacturers: Corsair, Kingston andCrucial. Once you have determined the DIMMs that you need, then contact commercial or technical support to check that you have selected the correct DIMMS. If you buy directly from manufacturers, then they will stand behind their products.

  • Need recommendation about the hardware upgrade - Satellite U300-130

    Hello seniors and technical experts.
    I have Satellite U300-130 notebook. Then I put my Satellite U300-130 with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and also I cannot add new hard drive. I mean I have 2 HDD in my laptop. Please need advice because I am not a technical person.

    Hey Buddy,

    I agree with the user above. You can use up to 4 GB of DDR2 RAM in your laptop, new DDR2 modules are not possible. I have good experiences with the manufacturing of Kingston.

    As far as I know Satellite U300 doesn t support two hard drives are not possible in Satellite U300. You can only exchange the current model with a bigger. ;)

  • The hardware upgrade and the cabinet on a PC running genuine Win XP!

    Hello... I use Beanstalk (Bought in 2002) HCL with original Win XP and I want to change the old motherboard (microATX) and the processor and the ram for a breakthrough because I had more problems with the former. But because of my size the new motherboard (ATX), I have to change the furniture too. The firm HCL contains the thumbnail of Windows authentication. I'll change the furniture and equipment and sell the former. How to change the windows license from the old to the new configuration without having to purchase a new license?

    A sticker placed on the PC "case" tends to mean that it is an OEM version.  OEM versions, by the terms of license AGREEMENT, are "forever" related to the first PC that is installed on.  The 'sense' standard and accepted PC can also be interpreted as 'mother '.  Substitute her means that the motherboard you would have a new PC at the end of the "improvements".

  • HP Pavilion dv 6000: hardware upgrade for hp pavilion dv 6000

    I have an old hp pavilion dv 6000, I recently upgraded to windows 7 and everything works well, but I would like to make the hardware upgrades as well.

    I want to move to maximum capacity, specifically: processor, graphics card, hard drive, and wireless network card.

    If someone can provide me with a list of known compatible with my system hardware would be great, I'll also be open to any suggestion of additional hardware upgrade if someone propose

    Hello

    Two things, you will not be able to upgrade: display the card and wireless network card.

    (a) graphics card: we cannot spend more than 90% of laptops, including yours,

    (b) wireless network adapter: your machine was built before the mid-2014, the whitelist prevents you to upgrade the wireless card.

    Now, you have 2 items to upgrade (maybe 3): hard drive and the processor (CPU) (and maybe RAM)

    (a) HARD drive: any 2.5 "HDD or even SSDS with 9.5 mm or less. SSD is more expensive but faster. HHD, please select the one that has RPM faster (7200 RPM), large cache (more is better). They are numerous on the following list including SSD:

    http://www.centrecom.com.au/notebook-hard-drives

    (b) for the processor, please use following 5-69 of the manual page to buy the right part of HP. Please do not ask me why to buy at HP.

  • Hardware upgrade of 4 servers windows 2003 7

    I just upgraded my Commvault software to version 9, with de-DUP.

    I noticed that my CF band is only changing to 100bm Brook.

    I read on the hardware upgrade to version 7.

    I have 14 VM to upgrade all the 2003 win. All have the latest tool installed 4.1

    Is there a there has been has I should look for before I start to put it off?

    before upgrade you the virtual hardware, you must upgrade the comment of VMware tools.  In an engine, the customer is off State, you can upgrade the virtual hardware.  From there on, turn on the prompt, login, let windows find all new device drivers and then restart again.  Here you connect and remove all devices shaded in Device Manager... Usually, restart us once more after that.

    With regard to the witch hunt.  If you are concerned, you can always snapshot the prior comments to the upgrade and if there are problems, return back.

  • ESXi host and VM hardware upgrades

    Hi all

    I pretty well know the answer to these questions (I like to read manuals), but I just wanted a few reassuring those who have ventured in front me.

    1 / when the upgrade to ESXi hosts of 3.5 to 4.0, it is my understanding that there is no real emergency in the upgrade of the host of the virtual computer (tools and hardware to version 7) as vSphere 4.0 will run happily with the older virtual machine (but without the new features).  However, I am wondering if anyone has experienced problems do not upgrade the machine virtual shortly after the upgrade of the host.  My intention is to do it very shortly after, but sometimes the best-laid plans go out the window in my role, so I'd feel comfortable if I new I could run the old VM indefinitely without any problem.

    2 / how 'security' is upgraded version of the VM from 4 to 7 material?  VMware I don't expect any problems, but I would like to know if anyone has experienced problems that can cause interruptions of service extended to the VM guest.

    Thanks in advance,

    Steve.

    1. I would separate between VMware tools and hardware upgrade. New tools not only to upgrade virtual hardware drivers, they also inflating to update and other features VMware uses to communicate with the guest operating system. In my opinion, you should pass the VMware tools as soon as possible. I can't say for sure if you have any questions without upgrading. My personal opinion/experience, is that during the "normal" old tools will.

    The hardware upgrade should not too important. In environments with hundreds of guests, you will actually have to update all hosts (in a cluster) material in order not to lose the capacity of invited guests 3.5 vMotion.

    2. the only issues I've had so far with the upgrade of the hardware have been networked. I had a few VMs to reconfigure the network manually after the upgrade.

  • Snapshot before VM hardware upgrade?

    Hello people,

    I read a lot of conflicting information around it, so thought I would ask here.

    We are going to be upgrade to vSphere 4.0 soon and of course will focus on the hardware upgrade of the virtual computer to version 7.

    Now, if I take a snapshot before you do the upgrade of HW and it goes pearshaped can I go back to the snapshot and the server will work?

    Or is it a one-way change, even with a snapshot in place?

    Same Xtravirt, which are usually about money, seems a bit confusing:

    ()http://xtravirt.com/do-i-upgrade-vmware-virtual-hardware-version-7( )

    They say:

    "When you upgrade virtual hardware version 3 to version 7, the upgrade is irreversible, even if you take a backup of virtual machine or a snapshot before you perform the upgrade.

    Then later in the same article:

    "using snapshots will give you the opportunity to come back if there is a problem."

    Thanks in advance.

    HW version 3 refers to the VM for instance ESX 2.x (see KB1003746 - versions of virtual machine hardware)

    I never upgraded to this version, so I can't say whether this is true or not. However, it is possible to return to a HW version 4 improved virtual computer. VUM proposes explicitly to take a snapshot before upgrading hardware.

  • Worth to upgrade the hardware in 2011 MacBook Pro?

    I have a 2011 end 15 "Macbook Pro (MacBookPro8, 2):"

    CPU: Intel Core i7 (2.5 GHz, 8 MB L3, 4 cores, 256 KB of L2 cache cache)

    Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 6770 M 1024 MB

    Memory: 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 (my upgrade using OWC RAM)

    Storage: Hitachi 750Go HD, 7200 RPM

    Battery *-he won't hold much fees and I always keep connected when possible because battery just does not last too long.

    But touch wood... except for the battery, I am happy with this old trick: the performances are quite good (with latest OS X 10.11.3).)

    It is interesting to invest in some hardware upgrades that it would rejuvenate significantly?

    I think the following (with the current prices of OWC):

    -new battery $99

    -SSD, 480 GB OWC Mercury Electra 6G $195 (it is $ 63 less than equivalent Extreme Pro)

    -1 TB HGST HD 7200 RPM $98 (with cube data, to be installed in the region of CD)

    TOTAL: $392 (I cut this to $287 if I cut half of SSD and HD capabilities)

    Opinions? My only concern is this new h/w were in a 5 year old laptop, how does life have left? Will be an investment to upgrade the h/w wasted because of other failures in 2 years?

    First of all, longevity... some still run their lighter systems 2008 as web browsers and other tasks.  My MBP 2011 sends this message.

    Second... An old battery is just that - something to be replaced instead of a 'sign of death.  I would like to replace it immediately at an Apple Store... old batteries can swell and damage case/keyboard/trackpad.  Maybe not, but it happens quite often.

    As for HD... all the spinny readers die subsequently.  You are wise to consider a replacement.  My 2011 MBP has a Crucial MBP (OWC is also a very good drive, and get the non-Pro is not a bad decision, if the Pro is not necessary).

    Basically if it's 'OK' outside the farm, the SSD will be much faster and the battery will allow it to better function as a portable device.

    < EDIT > The SSD you put into the 2011 models are 2.5, which can be reused in external speakers if the 2011 becomes unsustainable future (could happen).  So the SSD is definitely NOT a waste of money.
