Envy D7-7334 is not a valid HP product name.

 

Take a look at the bottom of the notebook amongst the tiny letters and fin the ProdID.

 

Post the ProdID in your next reply in your thread.

Hi,

Yes, you can use a 2TB 2.5" SATA3 drive. Your PC supports max 12.7mm thickness drives, so a 2TB drive will be no problem.

Example:

On page 48 of the service manual you can see the steps to replace the drive:

you could also opt for a 2.5" SSD which would give some extra performance.

 

Hope it helps,

David

The Envy laptop is part number DV7-7334ea. The main question was whether the firmware would recognise a 2TB drive.  At the moment I have 2x 1TB drives.
