ZBook Fury 17" G8 upgradeable?

[klaus4]

Hi!

What can I upgrade on this device?

I only found to upgrtade to 128GB RAM and 2TM M2.

Is it possible to upgrade more than this or not?

Thanks

Klaus

Edti: It has the 16GB NVidia graphicscard.and its an used one I bought

Is there any iso file for downloading cause this erreors are still after every newinstallation. Sorry I forgot to tell you that I bought a used one.

Hello klaus4.

This workstation is a complicated machine. Manual for this system has been pulled from HP servers (no idea why). You can take a look at it (courtesy of Wayback Machine's captures) here. The system can be configured with 4 RAM modules, up to 4 SSDs or 2 SSDs and an HDD or 2.5" SSD. RAM modules 1&3 are seen on p.61, modules 2&4 on p.55, SSD1 p.64, SSD2 p.52, SSD3&4 p.46 and the 2.5" HDD layout can be seen on p.48. SSDs 3&4 can be installed with an appropriate adapter instead of the HDD, so it's one or the other. Laptopmedia's review of the identical 15 inch Fury G8 mentions that the adapter is in the box, and has a disassembly video. However users here have reported that the adapter is actually NOT INCLUDED. Another disassembly video is the Official HP Removing & Replacing parts youtube video.

The Quickspecs PDF for this system also provides very useful information:

Therefore, there are a lot of different setups you can have on this workstation. With the 4 RAM modules you can have 128GB of non-ECC or even ECC memory. Unfortunately DDR4 modules of 48GB or 64GB do not exist and -as far as I know- no plans exist to manufacture them. You have to own a DDR5 machine to get these kinds of capacities on a single module. When it comes to storage, 4 PCIe drives of any capacity you wish can be used, or 2 PCIe SSDs and a 2.5" SSD.

I'm not sure what the message you posted says or what kind of ISO exactly you mean. You can use the cloud recovery tool to reinstall an HP image of WIndows 10 or 11 for this system: HP Cloud Recovery Supported Platforms.

Hello TzortzisG,

Does this mean I can upgrade to 128GB Ram and a 2TB SSD non M2? And have there models released without microphones?

Cause mine was marked without inside microphone but with webcam.

I think this driverissues are because I have an 2016 HP Omen? And the system is trying to load old driver via OTA?

Thanks

Klaus

Yes, 4 modules can take you up to 128GBs. I doubt you will ever need more. You can use an old fashioned HDD-shaped SSD with any capacity you want -or your budget allows. Page 1 of the Quickspecs given above mentions microphone is optional, so it's possible yours didn't have one.

As I mentioned earlier, I don't understand the error messages. However I doubt your owning a 2016 Omen has anything to do with this....

Thanks for your answer. These are driver issues, most are solved by Driverbooster 13 now. Upgrading the laptop with a microphone is not possible? And if its possible do you have a partsnumber? Maybe thats the last driver error I have.

Thanks

Klaus
