Replace a laptop (standard) 9.5 mm HD with a 7mm (fine) one?

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace a 9.5 mm (standard) thickness 2.5 "hard drive in a HP laptop with a 7mm ("thin")?  There are many thin 7mm people now, and I was wondering if I could spend my 9.5 mm with a 7mm thin one?  (it would depend on the mounting and alignment of the connectors of two sizes - of course of 7mm it would install physically in space where all 9.5 mm a DFT be)

HP Pavilion dm4-1050ea (I assume that this model has a flaw 9.5 mm 2.5 "SATA HDD - technical paper HP does not in fact)

The dm4 will be training of 9.5 mm and a shopping cart. 7 mm readers are a compatible replacement for the readers of 9.5 mm but not vice versa. 7 mm readers have the holes exactly in the same place as the 9.5 mm and SATA connectors are exactly in the same place on the bottom or the side of the "green card" so they exactly plug instead of a drive of 9.5 mm. The reader will not fill the caddy completely upward, like a pool with water withdrawn but the mounting holes and caddy will keep in place very well. For some models, the drive is maintained by rubber rails and not mounting screws and rubber tracks is too thick. They do however a spacer you can join the upper part of the 7 mm disc that will make the same physical dimensions as a 9.5 mm drive.

    Hi, Steve.

    My suggestion, because you do not know your exact model laptop, is to run the tool to scan the Crucial memory and it should tell you how your PC can take memory and how fast. I'm assuming that PC2-5300, based on your processor. PC2-6400 also works if it's cheaper to buy.  It will just downclock at low speed 667 MHz.

    Hi @ostnt

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    It's a great place to find answers.
    You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the HP Forums Learn how Post and more

    I understand that your Touchpad works fine on Windows, but not with Ubuntu.

    Ubuntu is not supported by HP.

    I suggest that you contact the Support of Ubuntu for assistance with this issue.

  • Windows Vista Home Basic preinstalled on my Compaq laptop will not accept code provided with the computer installation.

    Windows Vista Home Basic preinstalled on my Compaq laptop will not accept code provided with the computer installation. HP can't help. Your say talking to HP and HP technicians say they are unable to help him. I'm now using valid XP. HP say that conflict with Vista. Can anyone help?

    original title: VISTA VS. XP

    Your technicians say talk to HP

    Sorry, this is not Microsoft.  This is a public forum from user to user hosted by Microsoft on its servers for the comfort of its clients, and we all here are volunteers.

    You say you use XP.  What is your question?  What do you mean 'conflicts with Vista?

    I suggest recovery discs you order from HP for your computer.  If HP is no longer the issue of stocks you can order such a third of Recovery - Disks.com.  There are several of these companies.  If you are going to use XP, you need to install XP from scratch and this means that you need XP drivers for your brand and model.  If HP has no XP drivers on your computer you must not try to use XP on it.

    Remember that Vista Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium and Ultimate out of Microsoft support on 10 April and there will be more updates, including critical security patches after that date.  Only Vista business and company will continue to receive updates.  You might consider this a good time to upgrade to Windows 7.  You must download and run the Windows Update Advisor once you restored Vista successfully.

    Hello

    You will be able to install Windows Xp on your computer, but you will need to perform a clean installation.

    Before installing Windows XP. And also, you will have to take up the data in your computer, because the new facility will remove all data into the computer.

    Download the driver from the support of dell at the following link:

    I would also like to inform you that there is now the operating system disks or support is available for Windows XP.

    For reference, see the following Microsoft.

    Now, I replaced the in situ 300 watt power supply provided with the HP ML330 G3 with 750 watt Corsair and well. No smoke or fire smelly so that chips and salmon "I am preparing for dinner.

    Regarding your question, Yes, the size of floppy Bay is the same size as that of rpm scsi 10 k 80pin. drive it is a 80-68 pin code converter that plugs nicely into the internal water of 68 pin male. Corsair 750w PSU comes with connectors 8 x 12v morlex, these can be connected to the connectors extra 12v adapter needed to put these converters to 68pin 80 - scsi

    Daisy chaining scsi disk is easy, the two external channels can be used to connect to the scsi drive more in an another case unithaving / chasy a total of 28 scsi disk Garland.

    Hello

    My Hp Pavilion laptop 2244sa g6 does not come with the product key for windows8. Is this normal? I can't see it anywhere, should I worry?

    Some laptops, like my Envy 17-3002ea loan, have the certificate of authenticity Windows hidden in the compartment where the hard drive and the battery are.  First try.

    Other portable latest and which may include yours, have the Windows license key encrypted in the BIOS.  There is a thread on the Microsoft communities that verifies that. The thread is worth reading.
