Product: HP 250 G6

Hi,
i recently got an 250 G6 laptop without hard drive. I tried to install 4 different hard drives (Liteon, Intenso and wd green and wd blue). None worked. I got an error message saying "hard disk boot device not found". After some research, i decided to have a look at the bios and enabled legacy boot. Then the liteon (with the w10 install from a lenovo computer) booted with that windows installation, but neither the intenso nor the WD Green and WD Blue. The Liteon is 64Go and the others 256Go. Even though the three lasts were empty, they were even not recognised after a hardware test (F2), which returned a "no hard drive found".

 

I tried to reset the bios, updated it to the latest version, tried to boot in either Legacy or UEFI mode, without further success.

 

If it would be a connector or other hardware failure, the Liteone would not have booted. So, should be an HP thing...

Would anyone have an idea on how to solve that issue ?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
