Product: probook 450 g3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hey All,

 

I have a probook 450 g3 that originally came with m.2 ssd only, no mechanical hard drive. I wanted to add a hard drive for secondary storage on the empty spot but there was no mounting bracket or screw provided with it. Where can I buy these parts. I tried searching on amazon but no luck or maybe I'm not serching correctly. Anyone know reputable place to purchase these?

How did you go with this installation? I have a client with the same notebook, but with 1tb HD installed. He wants to add the M2 drive and boot from that. Reverse of what you are trying.

I would appreciate any feedback.

The smaller service door in the back houses the ssd. Just pop in the ssd there and do a clone of original drive assuming the ssd is same capacity as the hard drive. If the ssd capacity is smaller or larger, do proportional clone. Acronis True Image does proportional clone.
