hp 15-bs008nw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,
I would like to replace my HDD with the new SSD. Will it be everything good if I will try to use this SSD (Crucial MX500 500GB 2,5). I am asking because on a polish website (it is not HP official site) I found information, that my laptop's (hp 15-bs008nw) max allowed SSD capacity is 440GB, but I cannot find any official information.

Hi:

 

You will be fine with that model 2.5" drive.

 

You could go as high as 2 TB if you wanted to.

 

Use the cloud recovery tool to reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your notebook onto the new SSD,
