Product: HP ENVY 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-ch1000 IDS Base Model
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have an older HP Envy laptop which the motherboard crashed on it.  I was told that my hard drive is in good working order.  I purchased another Envy similar to my previous laptop.  I was wondering if I could install my old hard drive in this laptop.  I would like to transfer my data to this new laptop.  I my older Envy I saw where you could adda another hard drive, but I do not want to open this new Envy until I am sure that adding the hard drive is possible.
