First of all great video, good job!!. I want to install an m.2 drive as you did, but unfortunately I don't have the screw, does anybody know where i can find one screw? (and with the stand off if needed).
Great vid, one of the few out there for this type of case. I got the bc405nv, i5 8300h, 1050ti, but like your machine no backlit keyboard. I realize now, the inside layout is the same as the 2017 omen 15, and you have to take everything out to change the keyboard.
Hello! Thanks for the video! My unit is really similar to yours, I would like to know how the hard drive HDD holds to the laptop mine does not have any holes for screws. My laptop came without HDD, no hard drive caddy nor cable to connect it to the mother board. I just would like to see/know how you change the HDD (to see what caddy to buy and how to even look for it, because it is really difficult to find). Thanks in advance
Hi, any chance you could do a video showing how the screen is connected to the rest of the laptop, like where the wiring harness runs etc? I've got a HP Pavilion 15-bc440tx and the screen is not working. I believe your model and mine are identical in components except for the processor (i7-8750H) and the installed RAM (16 GB). The laptop itself is fine as I can connect it to an external monitor and everything works as it should. I think the wiring has come loose or has been severed for the laptops screen itself because before it was completely not working it would come on when the screen/lid was placed at a certain angle it would come on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks, that helped. I gingerly went round one with a plastic card today till the bottom sort of dropped off the top. Some areas seemed _very_ resistant to opening and there's always that worry -if I crack this, will my client cover the cost? (No!) However careful you are, it's hard to avoid a few stress marks but, with older designs, nobody could easily tell you'd been in there. I'd love to meet the genius at HP who conceived this idiotic access system so I could stroll up to him and shake him warmly by the throat. ;0)

Thanks for helping this was a supportive video but i have to ask one thing. My computer model is hp pavilion 15 bc300nt in the book it says if you will use dual hard drive u put 1tb hdd and 128gb ssd. So cant i put 256gb ssd in it? Or should i do whats writing in the book
Hey. I don't know what to advise you but as far as I know there is no direct correlation between hdd and ssd capacity. Maybe the chipset has a limitation regarding the SSD's capacity but that should be 512 or 1TB. Good luck!
Hi! Thanks for your video. I have a problem with almost the same model (there is a bad contact with screen). Can you tell me what do I have to check for this kind of problem ? (When the laptop is dismantled?) Thank you:)

I have the same laptop and I have a problem ... at my university we use different applications like autocad etc... I recently downloaded assassin's creed odyssey and the laptop is struggling...should I upgrade the ram and the ssd capacity or the ram is good enough? (Also I downloaded the game on the HDD because it had 700Gb free space whereas the ssd har 40... is this to blame for the lag?)
If you've installed the game on the HDD, that could be the culprit. Check the sys req for the game and compare it with hw config. You can also use system requirements lab for that.
i know that you can upgrade ram, ssd, hdd without breaking warranty! there is a screw on the motherboard that is covered with a sticker, if you take it off, it breaks warranty, but i am sure you can upgrade your laptop because 99% times you don't need to take off that screw(unless you change keyboard or mousepad)

Hi. Nothing in particular, just take a look at the old memory to see if it's DDR L or simple DDR. Memory compatibility shouldn't be an issue in nowadays as long as you buy the same memory frequency and voltage.
Yes, there is no problem, the new ram will work at the same latency. Example...you bought a Ram with cl 19 latency but you have a Ram with cl 17 latency so the new ram will use cl 17 latency, this also works in opposite way, if you buy a ram with latency cl 17 but you already have a ram with cl19 latency, the cl19 ram will run at cl17 latency.
Ai cumva idee daca se pierde garantia pentru operatiunea de a adauga inca o placuta de ram si un ssd m2? Se misca mai ok hdd dupa montarea ssdului? Intreb ca sa stiu daca merita sa il tin pentru stocare ,sau tot atat de urat o sa mearga.
Salut. Daca lasi urme vizibile in timpul procesului, cu siguranta vei pierde garantia. Eu am facut treaba asta la destul de multe laptopuri, diferite branduri, iar uneori a fost nevoie sa le trimit in garantie si le-au acceptat fara probleme. Nu stiu cum va fi in cazul tau specific daca va fi nevoie (sper sa nu!). HDD-ul se misca la fel dupa montarea SSD-ului, de fapt Windows-ul e cel care il face sa se miste prost, dar avand in vedere ca nu va mai fi folosit pentru Windows ci doar pentru stocare si poate jocuri/programe, cu siguranta vei simti o schimbare in bine in performanta lui. Succes!
Could you tell me what is the maximum capacity it supports in ssd nvme m2 ?, also know if it can be used in a dual way with the hard disk ?. Thank you very much.
Se misca greu laptopul inainte? intreb pentru ca si eu am un bc410nq, si sunt cam dezamagit...La jocuri face fata cand este conectat la priza, dar in rest...chiar si la navigare pe internet se misca greu...
Salut. Da, se misca destul de greu dar cam orice pc/laptop cu hdd de 5400rpm si/sau fara SSD este slab. Vei simti o diferenta uimitoare fie ca pui un SSD pe SATA fie ca pui un SSD pe M2, chiar si la configuratii slabute de genul Celeron.
@@b.emil-constantin3841 Daca nu vrei sa cheltuiesti foarte mult, iti recomand un SSD ADATA M.2 PCIe 128GB - ASX6000LNP pe care l-am si montat in clipul asta. Are un raport pret/performanta bun. Inclusiv variantele lui mai mari de 256 sau 512GB(asta are si viteze de scriere mai mari decat cel de 128 sau 256) sunt foarte bune ca pret si performante.
@@srinivaskola2684 you sure? Pretty impossible since without it being shown in bios the OS would not know about it... also, why does it matter if bios shows it or not? If you see it in Windows or during a Windows installation, it's fine.

Salut. La RAM nu am facut upgrade dar in video se vede slotul suplimentar, imediat dupa SSD. Iti recomand sa te uiti cu un software de genul aida64 sau similar ca sa stii daca ai DDR4L SAU DDR4 normal.

De mentionat ca pare ca are putin jos (pare mai scurt, ca nu ar ajunge pana la surub, daca este introdus cu pinii corect). Multumesc anticipat pentru ajutor.
Salut. Pai nu prea vad cu ce as putea sa te ajut... Eu as incerca prima oara sa ma asigur ca e introdus corect in slot iar apoi un update de BIOS. Daca nu merge in nici un fel, nu ai decat sa testezi SSD-ul in alt dispozitiv cu slot M2. Daca la mine a mers, trebuie sa mearga si la tine!

de curiozitate did u install the coolsink on the ssd, i got one m.2 today and i ll mount it but idk if i shall use the coolsink i got
Salut. Din cate imi aduc aminte, da, am montat si heat sink-ul.
Please someone tell me I have HP 15 BC-406TX N WANT TO PUT ADDITIONAL SSD AND USE BOTH HDD N SSD AT SAME TIME IS IT POSSIBLE IN MY laptop?? And even ram I want to increase please someone help.
Hi! can I install a 512GB SSD even if not supported in dual?
Hi.
No idea what you're referring to when saying "dual".
My expectation will be that the SSD is a slave of the HDD.
@@wicklow28 if I remember correctly, the SSD is seen as the secondary drive.
Is this laptop have backLight keyboard
Some specific models have but not all of the variations.
I have the same laptop and I have a problem ... at my university we use different applications like autocad etc... I recently downloaded assassin's creed odyssey and the laptop is struggling...should I upgrade the ram and the ssd capacity or the ram is good enough?
(Also I downloaded the game on the HDD because it had 700Gb free space whereas the ssd har 40... is this to blame for the lag?)
If you've installed the game on the HDD, that could be the culprit. Check the sys req for the game and compare it with hw config. You can also use system requirements lab for that.
It does loose the guarantee right?
It depends on how good you do the job. Usually, the warranty is not lost but it also depends on the authorised repairer.
i know that you can upgrade ram, ssd, hdd without breaking warranty! there is a screw on the motherboard that is covered with a sticker, if you take it off, it breaks warranty, but i am sure you can upgrade your laptop because 99% times you don't need to take off that screw(unless you change keyboard or mousepad)
Please help!
I have the same structure but with GTX 1650 and always games crash when I play for more than 2-10 minutes. I tried everthing with software but now I am concerned with hardware.
First, you should check you're temperatures! Do a stress test with software like OCCT and find out what temperatures you have!
@@RaduStefanc thanks for replying,
I checked the temperature for cpu (i5 9th gen) it was high but I undervolted it was well below 80 degrees. For gpu about 75. Also I was never able to play on battery as any game just instantly crashes
@@RaduStefanc and after it crashes I find that my dedicated gpu is i guess disconnected as no information is shown in msi afterburner. I try to shut down my laptop and it just loops the shutdown menu untill force shutting it down
I believe it's a hardware problem. It could be that you need a reballing on your GPU as that behaviour is not normal.
@@RaduStefanc do you think they might replace my gpu? I still have 3 months warranty left. I am really hopeless. I can never play demanding games or edit videos.
Nice video sir
mmmmmm, and the ram upgrade where is it?
I want to upgrade it to 16GB RAM. What product do you recommend?
Hi. Nothing in particular, just take a look at the old memory to see if it's DDR L or simple DDR. Memory compatibility shouldn't be an issue in nowadays as long as you buy the same memory frequency and voltage.
can you put more than 8gb of ram on this laptop?
Yes, you can. 16GB is the upper limit but I believe you can also fit in 32GB. Check the official documentation.
@@RaduStefanc i've read in some forums that the limit is 8 gb and you can put more but you can burn the motherboard or something like that
Yes, there are 2 slots for RAM.
Can I mix a cl17 with an cl19 ram?
Yes, there is no problem, the new ram will work at the same latency. Example...you bought a Ram with cl 19 latency but you have a Ram with cl 17 latency so the new ram will use cl 17 latency, this also works in opposite way, if you buy a ram with latency cl 17 but you already have a ram with cl19 latency, the cl19 ram will run at cl17 latency.

Ai cumva idee daca se pierde garantia pentru operatiunea de a adauga inca o placuta de ram si un ssd m2?
Se misca mai ok hdd dupa montarea ssdului? Intreb ca sa stiu daca merita sa il tin pentru stocare ,sau tot atat de urat o sa mearga.
Salut. Daca lasi urme vizibile in timpul procesului, cu siguranta vei pierde garantia. Eu am facut treaba asta la destul de multe laptopuri, diferite branduri, iar uneori a fost nevoie sa le trimit in garantie si le-au acceptat fara probleme. Nu stiu cum va fi in cazul tau specific daca va fi nevoie (sper sa nu!).
HDD-ul se misca la fel dupa montarea SSD-ului, de fapt Windows-ul e cel care il face sa se miste prost, dar avand in vedere ca nu va mai fi folosit pentru Windows ci doar pentru stocare si poate jocuri/programe, cu siguranta vei simti o schimbare in bine in performanta lui.
Succes!
Could you tell me what is the maximum capacity it supports in ssd nvme m2 ?, also know if it can be used in a dual way with the hard disk ?. Thank you very much.
it is not support nvme, just m2 sata 2242
Thank you for this.
wooo u are a champ!! great vid
I have tooo
Nice video bro,
Se misca greu laptopul inainte? intreb pentru ca si eu am un bc410nq, si sunt cam dezamagit...La jocuri face fata cand este conectat la priza, dar in rest...chiar si la navigare pe internet se misca greu...
Salut. Da, se misca destul de greu dar cam orice pc/laptop cu hdd de 5400rpm si/sau fara SSD este slab. Vei simti o diferenta uimitoare fie ca pui un SSD pe SATA fie ca pui un SSD pe M2, chiar si la configuratii slabute de genul Celeron.
@@RaduStefanc ok. Multumesc pentru raspuns. Sper sa am slot de m2 pe langa cel de hdd. Ai vreo recomandare de m2 de pe piata de acum?
@@b.emil-constantin3841 Daca nu vrei sa cheltuiesti foarte mult, iti recomand un SSD ADATA M.2 PCIe 128GB - ASX6000LNP pe care l-am si montat in clipul asta. Are un raport pret/performanta bun. Inclusiv variantele lui mai mari de 256 sau 512GB(asta are si viteze de scriere mai mari decat cel de 128 sau 256) sunt foarte bune ca pret si performante.
@@RaduStefanc ok. Multumesc

Hey.
It's right next to the M2 slot. You can see it in the video!

@@srinivaskola2684 you sure? Pretty impossible since without it being shown in bios the OS would not know about it... also, why does it matter if bios shows it or not? If you see it in Windows or during a Windows installation, it's fine.
Hey Ștefan am același laptop și as vrea sa mai pun și eu un 8gb de ram in plus. Ai vreo idee ce tip de ram sa folosesc și daca poți sa îmi zici de care ai folosit și tu? Mersi
P.S am deja 8gb ram
Salut. La RAM nu am facut upgrade dar in video se vede slotul suplimentar, imediat dupa SSD. Iti recomand sa te uiti cu un software de genul aida64 sau similar ca sa stii daca ai DDR4L SAU DDR4 normal. Nu prea poti mixa DDR4L CU DDR4 asa ca iti recomand să iti cumperi in functie de ce ai deja instalat.
Awesome
Salut. Si al tau se incalzeste destul de tare chiar si in idle? Al meu sta cam intre 45-55 de grade doar cu chrome-ul deschis. Mersi
Salut. Din pacate nu stiu pentru că nu este/era laptopul meu ci al unui client. Totusi, 45-55 grade cu chrome deschis nu e atat de rau.

Salut! Am comandat si eu acest model de SSD pentru acest laptop, insa nu il recunoaste ( nici BIOS, nici Device Manager). Crezi ca ma poti ajuta cu un sfat? De mentionat ca pare ca are putin jos (pare mai scurt, ca nu ar ajunge pana la surub, daca este introdus cu pinii corect). Multumesc anticipat pentru ajutor.
Salut. Pai nu prea vad cu ce as putea sa te ajut... Eu as incerca prima oara sa ma asigur ca e introdus corect in slot iar apoi un update de BIOS. Daca nu merge in nici un fel, nu ai decat sa testezi SSD-ul in alt dispozitiv cu slot M2. Daca la mine a mers, trebuie sa mearga si la tine!
LE: Cand spui cu pinii corect... nu ai cum sa il pui altfel pentru ca ai separatorul. Tu cumva ai incercat sa il pui invers in slot?
@@RaduStefanc S-ar putea sa fie problema la modelul achizitionat, pana la urma. Eu am luat un M.2 2280 PCIe SX6000 Lite. Chiar daca Ok in slot, nu este destul de lung (pana la surubul din capat), ceea ce imi pare a fi in neregula.
@@enescugeorge-iulian3173 2280 da dimensiunea deci nu are cum sa fie diferit ca dimensiune. Alta e probelma, fie a venit DOA fie nu e compatibil cu BIOS-ul(poate un upgrade de bios ajuta).

salut , am si eu o intrebare
am laptopul acesta si vreau sa ii cumpar ssd
nu ma pricep foarte bine insa am facut niste research si am vazut ca procesorul are 12 pcie lanes iar gtx 1050 e pcie 3.0x4 , nu inseamna ca le ocupa pe toate si un ssd nvme ar merge la viteza de sata iii?
inca odata nu ma pricep foarte bine si nu stiu exact cum functioneaza, ai facut speed test la ssd sa vezi daca trece de 6 gbps care e maxim pt sata?
@Ourworldize este din plastic si e ok, l-am desfacut fara probleme, iar partea cu tastatura ori un plastic de foarte buna calitate ori metal
Thank you!
