Product: hp envy dv7-7243cl
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to upgrade my "hp envy dv7-7243cl" that currently has a 1TB "c" harddrive (orig) to a SSD SanDisk Ultra II 960GB (960.20 GB) and move the current "c" drive to a 2nd onboard drive location if there is one?

 

I did this on my HP Desktop "HP Pavilion 061 D5468AT-ABA" Windows 8.1 Pro and have had an astounding increase in the overall speed.  So, I would like to consider doing the same to my Laptop above.

 

Any issues that anyone knows of before I do this?

 

Thanks

None. Splendid plan. You may need a caddy/cable for the second drive bay and, if so they sell them at newmodeus.com. Good luck.
