HP 15-ba009dx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I Have a HP 15- ba009dx. I recently upgraded to ram to 8gb. Now i have been doing to looking around on how to upgrade it more. I was wondering If i could stick a M.2 ssd drive in. I could not find anywhere on this model if I can. In the manual it shows a M.2 ssd, but It is not in my laptop. 

 

Thanks for your time.

Hi,

The manual shows an SSD in an SSD bracket in the place the hard drive is in your model. What you can do is replace the hard drive with a 2.5" SATA3 SSD such as the 2.5" Samsung 860 Evo or similar. It will be the same speed as an M2 SATA3 SSD and will give a boost to everyday performance.

On page 50 of the service manual, you can see how to replace the drive.
