Product: PAVILION LAPTOP 15-CS0XXX
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi everyone,

 

I have PAVILION LAPTOP 15-CS0XXX, and wondering if it's possible to upgrade my laptop M.2 and RAM,

 

Here is my current laptop configuration: 

Operation system: Windows 10 pro (64 bit)

Laptop model: Hp pavilion 15-cs0xxx

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8250U

GPU: GeForce MX130

RAM:  DDR4 8 GB 2400 MHz (4 GB x 2) 

 

M.2 slot is currently equipped with Intel Optane 16 GB, and I want to replace it with (Samsung 970 EVO 500 GB - NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD), 

notice here that the Optane M.2 hastwo cutouts, as shown below

1. M.2 SSD: You have to disable Optane before you can upgrade to M.2 SSD. Sumsung 970 EVO series is known as compatible on Optane slot. The following tutorial may help

2. RAM: 2666MHz RAM will probably run at 2400MHz. Are they cheaper ? If not why ?

 

Regards.
