Upgrade SSD C Drive

[edirish]

The SSD C Drive in the PC is a few GB from being full so I want to remove and replace with a 1 or 2 TB SSD. Does the new

SSD need to be a SATA SSD? The documentation from HP does not show the original SSD as being a SATA drive. Have

changed out many normal HDD's over the years but never an SSD drive. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @edirish 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

Download Crystal Disk Info .zip (portable) to check current M.2 drive status.

You probably have a M.2 NVME PCIe drive.

Thank you for the help. The new 1 TB SSD is now in place and running as it should. Used Macrium Reflect to make the clone of the original drive C plus had to purchase an M.2 SSD USB enclosure to hold the new SSD during the cloning process. I learned a lot in the process so thank you again.

Hi @edirish 

My pleasure.

Good to see all went well.

I also use Macrium Reflect. Very good disk cloning and imaging software.
