HP Pavilion 15-p056ne Upgrade

[vinx13]

Hi,

I want to upgrade my Pavilion laptop, in terms of RAM and also, reading some threads, I can put SSD to my laptop.

Any assistance on what specific products (RAM and SSD) that will fit my Pavilion and where can I buy it from? Any links on selling merchants would be highly appreciated. I really want to max out my specs, as I am into video-editing as of this moment, I would need an extra boost in performance.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Ervin

Hi,

You can have a maximum of 16GB of DDR3L RAM (2x8GB). Choose 1600mhz sodimms. For the most stable system it is best to buy a kit of two sticks of exactly the same ram.

You can upgrade to an 2.5"  SSD of your prevered size. I would choose at least 240 GB or higher. The SSD will greatly increase everday performance of the PC.

You will have to reinstall windows 10 on your system or migrate a system image to the SSD. I would choose to download and create a usb pendrive with Windows 10 from Microsoft and do a fresh reinstall of the OS

It will be automatically activated (just skip when asked for product key) as long as you install the same version you already had on PC.

Examples of bying upgrades:
