Hi I have a older HP laptop ( https://support.hp.com/gb-en/product/details/hp-15-bs100-laptop-pc/model/20353501 ) that has this hard drive WDC WD10PVX-60JC3T1


The hard drive is showing signs of failure when I do some of those tests to it & it's acting slow too.

 

What is the fastest best hard drive I can put into this laptop? 

 

I am not big on capacity so anything over 100GB is fine I just want a good amount of speed & reliability, price isn't a concern what would you all recommend?

Hi @alantoaca 

 

This model has an M.2 port and you can put an M.2 SATA-3 disk, the size you want 1 TB, 2 Tb or more, and keep the HDD as storage unit.

Thank you for the quick reply! Would you be able to provide a link to a model like that from a manufacturer that you trust from Amazon or another retailer?

HP Recommended

I can't recommend anyone to trust, that's a personal decision as to where to buy, but Amazon is generally safe.

 

Amazon.com : m2 sata ssd

No, that is a NVME, it is not a SATA, the SATA are those that have two slots as the link that I have put above.
