Adding a 2nd HHD SSD driive to a HP-15z-CW100 CTO Laptop computer, need SDD cable adapter

[sorejc1]

I want to add a Western Digital Blue SSD 1 T-byte drive to this computer, but it doesn't come with either a hard drive or the hard drive cable adapter. What is the part number of the adapter cable, where can I order it from and who is the vendor?  

This computer come with the space for a second hard drive, but there is no adapter cable to go from the either a HDD or SDD  drive to the ribbon cable slot.

I have upgraded a different Pavilion HP-15cw1063wm Laptop computer with a 1-Tbyte HDD drive to an 1-Tbyte SSD Western digital blue drive with no problem.

Hi,

To install the Hard Drive, you need:

hard drive bracket     part number L19469-001

hard drive cable        part number L23889-001

They are not available in HP parts store, however you can perform an online search with part number

Example:

On page 45 of service manual you can see the steps to install the drive:

Great! Thanks a lot for the part numbers and links. This was hard to find. I would note, the drive is so light, it can be held in place with thin velcro or scotch mate.
