Maintenance and Service Guide pavilion 15cs3065cl

[MS261]

Hi,

I'm searching for the maintenance and service guide for my laptop (Pavilion 15-cs3065cl). The one associated with it on HP website is for the following categories/families of laptops:

15-cs0000 – 15-cs0999; 15-cs1000 – 15-cs1999; 15-cs2000 – 15-cs2999
15t-cs000; 15t-cs100; 15t-cs200

Mine is 15-cs3000

Also,  the guide is for 7th and 8th generations processors only, Mine is 10th generation.

Thanks in advance

Hi @MS261 

The Maintenance & Service guide also applies to your 15-cs3000 notebook, according to the Service portal for your notebook.

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-15-cs3000-laptop-pc-series/29133460

HP just has not yet updated the manual text to include the 10th Gen processors.

That is the very same manual that the service engineers at the HP Service Centers use.

I'm planning to get an SSD to install it beside the storage I already have (1TB hard drive & 12 GB RAM).

According to this service guide, the max SSD capacity I can get is 512 GB, right?

All other sources show that it will handle more.

A 1 TB unit would work, but a 512 TB SSD + the existing 1TB legacy drive that is already installed bumps your notebook up to a modest desktop PC's storage capacity. 

I tend to use the SSD as bbot drive and program location so 512 GB would be perfect. I love the @ 12 second boot to Windows time.

Thank you for your reply

Actually, this is my plan. I will get the SSD to install Matlab on it. When I install it on the hard drive, my laptop is extremely slow.
