I've been thinking about just buying a portable hard disk for memory but is there a way to just put an extra one inside the laptop without removing anything? if so are there any tutorials for it on putting in that certain part?

Hello @AJmas00 

 

You can add an HDD inside your Omen laptop, but you will have to take the case apart to get into it. Then you will have to also purchase the HDD brackets and cable harness to install your HDD with. According to your model number, you apparently live in the EMEA regional (Denmark, Finland, etc). According to the HP Parts Store, those parts are only available in the USA. You could try hunting for the parts from a 3rd party source.

Page 34 to 37 gives the install info... http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06219881

Brackets...  929561-001

Harness...  929450-001

 

Otherwise, it would be much easier to simply purchase a large capacity SD card and mount it into the SD card slot.

Is that what you needed to know?

Can you recommend some external harddisk?

If its a USB hard drive you are looking for, any of the major brands will be good.

I personally like Western Digital drives. I tend to stay away from the WD Blue drives though.
