I need to replace my hard drive.  I would like to replace it with a SSD.  I am wondering what you would recommend and along with the drive, what other cables I might need.  thanks!

Hi,

 

You can install/replace the current HDD with a SATA SSD. You can use the existing SATA data and power cables.

 

The SATA SSD upgrade purchase options are unlimited:

 

HP

Crucial and others

 

Buy whatever you want. 

 

Regards
