So I want to buy an SSD. I found a Kingston A400 SSD at a very good price but I don't know if it is compatible with my notebook HP Pavilion 15-bc415nq. Help me as soon as possible, PLEASE! (Kingston A400, 2.5", TLC, 240GB, SATA-3, 69.9 x 100 x 7 *W x D x H mm*, 2 channels)

Hello @DariusCristian,

please follow the instructions on pages 41-42 of the Maintenance and Service Guide.

You could replace the HDD with that Kingston SSD, but according to the information on that Crucial site

https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Compaq/pavilion-15-bc415nq ,

it even should be possible to put a NVMe M.2 SSD, which is much faster, in your notebook.
