How To Replace Hard Drive in HP 15 Touch Laptop With new SSD

[@oldmanjenkins3850]

Thank you for this tutorial. Was nervous about attempting this, but you made it easy to follow. My laptop from 2015 now runs like it’s brand new.

[@rm62rocket]

Thanks for the video. HP make doing this 1000% harder than it should be! Never would have guessed I needed to remove the keyboard to change out the hard drive.

[@pankoza]

same in my old Asus X401U I just got today from a cousin, except minimally easier

[@Starshadowslight]

Thank you!! it made it soooo much better. Upgrading from a 5400rpm HDD to an SSD is just a satisfying jump. I was lucky I had an extra 250gb SSD I never use anymore.

[@DJTicojon]

I couldn't have done it without this video. Way more screws than expected.

[@MikesVlogss]

Thank you for the tutorial on this HP laptop! I was wondering if you use Dust Off during any of your upgrades?

[@NoWayJoseNJ]

[@ARKujo]

@@CadillacComputerCenter Hi there chief!!!! quick question, I have the same Laptop however all of a sudden is not connecting to WiFi anymore, I have gone through all the trouble-shootings possible but no luck......... any suggestion??

[@flywheel-rsvp]

Excellent... I was almost at my wits end until I found this video and success! Thanks so much for sharing amen. James, Rescue Kitties & Snowvan!

[@mike3963]

Thank you! Also what could go in the empty space above the hard drive? I see the power connector. I have an hp 15 and I want to extend as much use for it as I can

[@cvilla1944]

There is a nearly identical model that has a DVD drive there

Thank you ,you were very helpful

[@mauriciofernandolazartellocra]

Hey, what is the name of that tool you use to open the corners, which looks like a plastic cutter? I want to get one like that, but I don't know what it's called.

[@CadillacComputerCenter]

It's called a blue triangle spudger tool

[@mauriciofernandolazartellocra]

The screw under the keyboard! thank you!

My HP 15 Notebook PC type is HP 15 f370wm. Is this tutorial same to do on my laptop. I want to change My HardDrive to SSD too. If can, What Type Of SSD? Thankyou So Much

[@tomhunter7325]

I did everything you did. After connections of the ribbons and powering up nothing happens. The light on the on/off sw. did not light. I put the HDD back and the same result. I am thinking the upper left ribbon is not working very good in the board connector. You did not show the bootup.

[@mariauruguay67]

Excellent job my friend!!! Thank youuuuuu

thenx alot love end easpacte

[@alejandroocanas3690]

How did you backup the files? Did you use an external hard drive

[@tomhunter7325]

He would ahve used a migration software from Samsung. I did it and all went great.

[@0426untm]

Is your touchscreen working still? I did the same but touchscreen didn't work anymore. I'm looking for drivers to make touchscreen work again

[@larryharrison734]

You might need to check the ribbon cable for a good connection.

[@Starshadowslight]

dont forget to upgrade drivers. I used the HP assistance tool or whatever for the version of my laptop, when it asked to install assistant I said no. I didn't think it installed anything but in the taskmanager it was there, and it automatically updated my drivers and stuff.

[@adamsuleiman5635]

did it make a noticeable difference?

[@CadillacComputerCenter]

Yes, huge difference.

[@mdade9972]

What if I buy a 1 or 2 terabyte? Unnecessary? Or even cooler?

[@neilmilner7074]

Hi buddy, I have just squires a hp 15-db0xxx and in the memory menu it says it has a Samsung hard drive? Does this mean it's been changed?

[@CadillacComputerCenter]

Hi. Most likely been updated to an ssd. However, it could be a samsung 2.5 inch hdd. Just go to c drive, right click it, go to properties, click hardware tab.

[@neilmilner7074]

@@CadillacComputerCenter do they come with Samsung drives? The unit was manufactured in 2019 and under warranty until May 2021. Someone wiped the unit for me as I didn't have the password when given it, he said he needed to take the drive out to perform this action, however, I'm not a PC tech guy, what size memory should it have? 4gb ram it's saying in the spec menu, but I don't understand all the jargon to be honest my friend

[@nikkimeyers2349]

maybe actually show ALL the screws that you took out.....so people don't screw up their computer trying to pry everything apart not knowing that ALL the screws HAVE to be removed from the back to make everything come out as easy as you did.

[@seanwatts392]

I mean. You have eyes and common sense. Plus he points them out. You can't really unscrew the wrong thing.
