HP ENVY 700-159 Desktop PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I bought a state of the art Envy 700 100 series in early 2014. After just upgrading the game card and monitor this year, I found my hard drive is too slow for most new games and applications.. Although I still have 1 trillion bites of free space the processing speed is too slow and my hard drive is frequently at 100% usage.

 

I don't want to buy a new computer, I just want to know what hard drive I should buy to upgrade my existing computer so it is compatible ?

@Workdove , welcome to the Community.

 

I suggest that you consider a SSD to replace your HDD.  Here is a SSD that will be compatible with your motherboard.  This will give you all of the speed that you will need.  Of course, you can always buy a larger SSD.
