Hello,

I would like to buy an SSD for my laptop because it has become very slow over the past few months.  However, I do not know if this laptop can be fitted with an SSD and if it can, what SSD I should buy.  Could someone help find out what SSD this laptop can be fitted with?

Here are the laptops information:

HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC

Product number: E6B65EA#ABU

Serial number: [personal info removed]

Model: 15-e036sa

Appreciate any help in advance.

Hi:

 

You can replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SATA SSD.

 

Below is the link to the service manual.

 

h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03939658

 

The specs for your notebook indicate that it came with a 750 GB mechanical hard drive.

 

They don't make 750 GB SSD's, so you can either go with a 500 GB SSD or a 1 TB SSD, depending on your storage needs and budget.

 

I recommend this model 2.5" SSD, which provides the best performance for the price, in my opinion.

 

500 GB:

 

SanDisk Ultra 3D SSD 500GB up to 560MB/s Read / up to 530MB/s Write: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Acces...

 

1 TB:

 

SanDisk Ultra 3D SSD 1TB up to 560MB/s Read / up to 530MB/s Write, Black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & ...
