Hi:
I installed an Intel 535 120 GB SSD SATA III (6.0 GB/s) in a HP 6910p with the same chipset as yours and it worked fine.
So a SSD should work. Whether or not only certain brands work, that I do not know.
Did you install an operating system on it?
That is usually the error notice you get when the operating system is missing.
