HP 15-db0320ng
Linux

The kernel startup process of Linux Mint 19.1 takes 35 seconds to finish on my new HP 15-db0320ng. Very poor result for a SSD.

Is there any information about the sequential reads in MB/s or the interface (SATA I/II/III)? I consider buying a new SSD.

Best regards

Hi,

The M2 drive in there at the moment is a SATA3 drive. You could insert a much faster M2 PCIe NVMe drives such as the Samsung 970 Evo Plus or similar. (There is no limit to capacity)

Example:

On page 47 of the service manual, you can see the steps to replace the drive

Hope it helps,
