Please help, I have contacted HP support but the staff could not answer my question.

 my motherboard is hp 84b6, I would like to know the compatibility of my harddrive for this motherboard.  The hard drive at the motherboard is hdd (500gb), I would like to update it to m2 sdd ( friends suggest using adapter). however some said my motherboard may not compatible to it. It may run as low as it used to be.

can anyone give me some advice?

thank you very very much

They could not answer you because they use HP products such as laptop and desktop PCs as hardware references.

 

You have not provided that.

 

This is not an enthusiast forum where people build DIY PCs from scratch.

 

This is what I extrapolated from the information you provided.

If what you have is a 14-cf000 laptop:

Single hard drive configurations, 6.35 cm (2.5-in), 7.0/7.2 mm, SATA hard drives:

1 TB, 5400 rpm, 7.2 mm

500 GB, 5400 rpm, 7.0 mm

M.2, SATA-3, TLC, solid-state drives:

256 GB

128 GB

PCIe, NVMe, M.2 solid-state drives (Intel Core processors):

512 GB

256 GB

Dual storage configurations (Intel Core processors):

256 GB, PCIe, solid-state drive + 1 TB, 5400 rpm hard drive

128 GB, SATA-3, TLC, solid-state drive + 1 TB, 5400 rpm hard drive

16 GB Optane memory module + 1 TB, 5400 rpm hard drive
