Hi:

 

HP only has the service manual for the older 17-Cd1000 model series available.

 

Maintenance and Service Guide HP Pavilion Gaming 17 Laptop PC

 

According to chapter 3, page 19 of the service manual, you need this 2.5" drive cable part number:

 

Hard drive connector/cable    L56871-001

 

It would be a SATA 3 cable.

 

The brackets needed to secure the 2.5" drive are not available as spare parts.

Many thanks. It remains to find where to order it 😄

You're very welcome.

 

Yes, therein lies the problem.

 

I see two listed on eBay that ship from the UK and they are very expensive.

You may want to consider replacing the NVMe SSD with one having a greater storage capacity.

Are there any analogues by any chance?
