Pavilion 17-e020us: HP Pavilion 17-e020us memory / SSD Upgrade Quesstions

Hello

I'm looking to upgrade the RAM and hard drive on my laptop HP Pavilion 17-e020us (these are the first updates it will receive).

I have 6 GB of RAM and want to update to the maximum supported by the computer, 8 GB of RAM.  Which model of chip RAM should I buy (in addition to the DDR3L - I know that many), and where can I buy it from?  It will take a 4 GB chip (the computer is 6 GB a 4GB chip and a 2GB chip; I will swap the 2 GB chip for a chip of 4 GB for a total of 8 GB).

I'm also looking to upgrade the hard drive 5400 RPM for a Solid State Drive.  The SSD should be around 500 GB.  Which models are compatible with my laptop and what model do you recommend?  Furthermore, to what extent will be upgraded to SSD my computer speed and performance?

Thanks to all those who help me with that.

Here is the Service Manual:

Manual

See p. 6 and 49 and 54.

The memory can actually be upgraded to 16 gigs. 2 x 8. Upgrade to 8 GB is a good idea, however. For most people, 16 gigs is excessive. 4 correct gig module is the following:

4 GB (PC3L, 12800, 1600 MHz) 691740-001

http://www.Amazon.com/HP-691740-001-1600MHz-PC3L-12800-memory/DP/B00CI08FX4

In regards to a SSD, you can install any wide 2.5-inch SATA SSD. I recommend a Samsung Evo 850

The amazon link has versions of 250 and 500 and 1 TB. Othe SSDS are cheaper, and I got lucky with OCZ. Stay away from the MX Crucial series.

The difference with the SSD will be day and night. There is no better upgrade of money can buy.

    See pages 52 to 54 for the procedure to access the hard disk, remove and replace.

    To answer your questions in order: no, your laptop is not compatible with the small mSATA readers that resemble the memory modules. The only type of SSD, you can use is a 2.5 inches wide 7 or 9.5 mm thick SATA SSD. These are the most common type and there is a confusing choice from there. My own go - to SSD is a Samsung 850 Evo:

    http://www.Amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-inch-internal-MZ-75E500B-am/DP/B00OBRE5UE/ref=sr_1_2?s=PC&ie=UTF8&QID=1447245247&SR=1-2&keywords=Samsung+850+Evo

    You need to check the speed or anything like that or worry about the configuration of the BIOS, if you use Windows 7 or higher. Treat is as a hard drive. The physical package of the reader; in other words, where the connectors and the holes of mounting and the form and the size of the box itself are the same as a hard drive mechanical except that it is likely to be thinner, 7 mm instead of 9.5 mm. He always perfectly fits in the cart or the slot where the old drive.

    If you need help for reinstalling software or anything else, after the return.

    I was unable to find guaranteed compatible expansion modules appear to be available to Kingston or Corsair.

    Guaranteed compatible using modules in a major memory manufacturer upgrade is the way to go if you want no surprises when you plug new modules. Do not add the new memory module that is already there. Remove the original memory unless you can locate a module that is identical in every respect to be placed in the empty soDIMM slot. You don't have to try to match the specifications of the module of the computer laptop memory published unless you like surprises.

    SSD upgrade will improve the time of startup and overall performance drastically than anything else. SSD boot drive is an excellent choice. Use tools of cloning the SSD manufacturer (from their website) or other free tools available, to migrate the OS.

    Download, run this tool to know the SATA HDD type:

    SSD now on the market is of SATA3 (6Gbps), it'll work in your laptop your model SATA connector to be I, II or III. They are compatible with reverse.

  • HP Pavilion 17-e020us: updates from HP Pavilion 17-e020us (processor / SSD)

    Hello

    I wonder what the best SSD and processor upgrades are for my 17-e020us HP Pavilion Notebook PC.  The specifications of the device are here.   I would like to the SSD and the processor both to be Intel.  I'm looking for upgrades that would make my fastest PC.

    The SSD should be around 500 GB (480 GB is fine) to 600 GB.

    I was looking at this processor and this SSD; are they compatible with my laptop?

    A big thank you to everyone who helps me with this.

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Repair manuals

    Models with processor i3 - 3110M have the CPU that is soldered to the motherboard, which excludes an upgrade unless the card mother set is replaced, and need you a motherboard, the processor and the heat sink and if you buy those that you might as well buy a new laptop. .

    Intel SSD will work but good grief it is more than 3 times the price per GB of SSD standard in the market.

    I suggest a Samsung Evo 850 and a version of 500 gig of this model is $149.99 on amazon.com with the first delivery.

  • HP Pavilion 500 - 200 t: card memory HP Pavilion 500-200 t and upgrade information

    I'm about to take my 10 GB of RAM RAM 16 GB of RAM and 500-200 t has only two slots for memory card. When I replace (2 x 8 GB cards) I have two 5 GB cards flying over. I need to know the exact left specifications more cards? I want to put the card in my Dell XPS 8500 4slot who has already 2 x 4 GB cards in there. And the specifications on Dell cards are cards of DDR3 1600 MHz. Can someone tell me the specs on the HP 500-200 t maps?

    Please see the specifications of the product HP Pavilion 500-200 t and configurable Options page for the information you request. Based on the specifications, the factory in your computer memory should be 10 GB (1 x 2 GB, 1 x 8 GB) DDR3 PC3-12800. The speed is DDR3 - 1600 MHz. The size is a guess based on your statement "I'll have two 5 GB cards flying." Memory is available in sizes based on the binary progression... example... 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, etc. There is no such thing as a 5-GB card.

    As to put in your Dell... it may or may not work depending on the latency and/or refresh, or if it is dual channel.

    Hello:

    You need to replace the memory module.

    Try first, remove and replace it.

    If you get the error, buy one with the same characteristics as the bad.

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP technical support for a replacement of the faulty memory Strip guarantee.

    Make sure that you remove the battery and disconnect the laptop power adapter before working inside.

  • HP Pavilion DV71-4100 Memory Module failure

    Hello

    My product is a HP Pavilion laptop as follows:

    Product: ww181av

    Model: DV71-4100

    Series: [personal information]

    My phone worked terribly slow and I thought I had a virus.  Analyses have shown that I have not.  I ran HP diagnostics and came with a memory Module failure with the following information:

    Failure ID: m89jxt-5A76KO(or 0)-xdOO(or 00) 2 k-4o(or 0) 2eO (or 0) 3

    Part ID: 181AV

    Sorry for the question O/0.  I don't know if this is o or zeros.

    Is it a simple part replacement (IE a chip memory) and if so can I order and install myself?  Or is it something I need to take to an HP repair center in THE West somewhere (assuming there is one)?  An idea of the cost?

    Thank you!

    [Personal information]

    Hello:

    You should be able to do the replacement yourself. This is a great do it yourself project for the first time.

    The first thing you need to do is to determine which module of memory is bad (if your laptop has two modules are installed, and many of them do).

    I use a very technical but very effective method to determine which.

    First remove the a/c and battery power (always do when you work inside the laptop).

    Remove one of the memory modules. I leave the battery, then plug the power of a/c.

    Turn on the PC. If it starts, and that you do not get the failure error memory then you were lucky and found the bad chip on the first try.

    If it does not start or if you get an error, turn off the PC, unplug the unit, remove the bad chip and replace it with the first one you removed. The PC should now start and run OK.

    So, now that you have found the bad chip, you must know how much GB is. Normally, it's on the sticker.

    Just buy the same chip memory size with the same characteristics.

    You need a DDR3 PC3-10600 memory module.

    If you let me know which module of memory of size you need (2 GB, 4 GB), I'll post a link to a site that sells the memory at low prices.

    Depending on which chip the size you need, replacement costs must not exceed $40,00.

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    The memory of the removal and replacement procedures are given in Chapter 4.

  • Pavilion A700 n memory upgrade

    Hello

    I want to upgrade the RAM on my Pavilion Z700 n that was installed with 512 MB. When I got outside, the label on it said that it was a PC3200 400 MHz DDR.

    But when I checked online, the manual said that it the PC uses PC - 2700 RAM.

    Also, when I checked in with Crucial line for the compatible modules, the site suggested that I could have a maximum of 2 x 1 GB PC-3200 modules while the manual says I can install up to 2 X 512 MB PC-2700 modules.

    Could someone clarify if I can install 2 X 1 GB PC-3200 modules on the machine?

    Thank you

    Your PC has a motherboard ASUS A7V8X-(Kelut) . The plug from motherboard to state that it will accept 2 GB PC2700 / memory modules DDR PC2100 non ecc.

    Think this Crucial than said you. The modules are guaranteed compatible with that upgrade is expensive compared to upgrade a PC more modern that uses DDR2.  PC3200 modules will have their speed downgraded by your BIOS by the SPD settings that the BIOS sees it in the code memstick. PC2700 / non ecc PC2100 modules are simply not easy to find because they are no longer manufactured.

    Yu will have to remove the installed OEM memory modules and use only new replacement modules

    I have Pavilion 15-p101nm, and it has 4 GB of ram. However, only 3.44 of it is usable. Now, I know that graphic integrated uses a portion of the RAM so it could work, however, I don't want to use it, because I already have included independent chart, which, by deafult, it uses only when necessary. I want that all 4 GB of free ram (especially because I play games and you need all the memory) and only a chart r7 stanalone to work. I tried to turn off the graphics in the Device Manager, but it is still 3.44 GB of usable ram. Any ideas what I need to do?

    You have misunderstood me, of course it of still in use by the operating system and other programs, but I have 4 GB of RAM, 3.44 alone can be used by OS and etc, another 500 MB are RESERVED by GPU and CANNOT be used for other programs. When I check the properties and see "RAM installed," he said "4 GB (3.44 GB usable). Also when I run the Task Manager and look for physical use of Mem I see clearly that all usable memory is exactly 3.44 GB. So, your suggestion might be good if I had the money, but I want to use ALL of my RAM without having to buy more of it...

    Won't happen unless you increase your RAM. The wil reserve system RAM for video and you can not change that. You can switch to 8 GB depending on how memory is configured on this laptop, it can't go 16 GB but you must consult your maintenance manual to see what is the configuration of the memory. DDR3 is not that expensive.
