No but if you upgrade the BIOS to at least F.45 you can install a T9500.

Thank you so much for replying.
Do I need to "F.45"
Or download the latest version "F.58 A"

HP Recommended

Anything F.45 or higher as BIOS updates are cumulative. It is probably a good idea to upgrade to the latest BIOS anyway if you can but not needed for installing a T9500 as long as you have at least F.45. 

HP Recommended

Everything is okay now.

Thank you.
