CHANGE OF HDD FOR INCREASE IN STORAGE

[ARMANBHAT786]

HEY THERE!

Q:I WANT TO KNOW THAT CAN I CHANGE MY INTERNAL HDD FROM 300 GB TO 1 TB, FOR MY HP ELITEBOOK 820 G1.

AND ALSO CAN I INSERT A 2 GB GRAPHIC CARD INTO MY PC?

Hi,

It is not possible to insert a graphics "card" as graphics is integrated on the motherboard.

Yes, you can insert a larger capacity drive in the notebook. 1TB will be no problem. What you need is a 2.5" SATA3 HDD or for extra performance a 2.5" SATA3 SSD.

Examples:

https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-MX500-NAND-SATA-Internal/dp/B077SF8KMG/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=mx500...

On page 71 of service manual, you can see the steps to install the drive

You will need to install the OS on the new drive.

Hope it helps,

David
