I like how everything is easily accessible and laid out nicely.
I agree. At work I had to upgrade 30 of these with bigger SD and it saved me so much time to not have to unscrew the cover...
So, this is how awesome a solid video is. I never intended on upgrading my hard drive..just RAM and I did. After watching your video, I went over to amazon and bought the TB SSD. Granted, I may have found it a little cheaper elsewhere, but your video is well worth the premium and I wanted you to get pizzaid. Rock on.
I'm glad to help. 😁 Thank you for your kind words.
@@Cobuman Hey, so after I physically install the drive, I just get it to boot from the backup disc I made right? and it'll run?
Or will it just run? it has been a very long time
@@elliottcurry You should be able to just install a fresh Windows 10 from CD or USB drive. Afterwards, copy over files from the old drive. Assuming your backup disk has the files from the old HDD.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you this was helpful!
Sure thing. Take care.
tks from Brazil. This video help-me just now.
I'm glad to hear that.
Show, sou do Brasil. Muito obrigado 🤗🤗
O prazer é meu 👍😁
Two years ago, I had purchased the 840 G1 with a 250 gig hard drive and 4 gigs of ram. Then I had upgraded to a 1TB SSD hard drive with 16 gigs of ram.
Was there any visible change in performance after the upgrade?
860 EVO
or
970 EVO
which one is appreciable for G1 please let me know
Thanks in advanced
This might be a silly question but I have the same size ssd with a different brand installed on my pc. I am wondering if that ssd will work on this laptop. I have the same unit
hey sir i have hp elitebook 820 g1 and i want to upgrade it so please suggest me, how can i upgrade it with m.2 2242 or by exchange with hdd into new ssd? thanks in advance
Thanks for this. Before I upgrade my HDD to and SSD (on my Elitebook G1) I need to save all my data, etc. I have most of my documents and other files on a google drive, but I want to What method do you recommend? Mirror the drive? MS Windows backup and restore? Save only data and reinstall everything from scratch? Appreciate your advice.
The easiest one might be Windows backup and restore. But, if you want to know exactly what it's doing watch this video: th-cam.com/video/lPfFVcT6sx0/w-d-xo.html
Bro I installed a 32 GB just for speed to same laptop but it's not recognized I tried several times it's connected perfectly but laptop isnt recognizing it although SSD is ok what should I do PLZ HELP
Hello cobuman, thanks for you video. I have question - when installing a new caddy and harddrive, why does this plastic soft caddy have all these extra screws inside? I had to cut open the caddy to get access to them to get rid of them. Do they apply to other models?
There should not be any extra screws nor do should you need to buy a new caddy. The hard drive is all the same size with same screw mounts.
I watched this video for the purpose of finding out what ssd fits that slot? Msata, nvme, slot b or m?
Thanks, the question is the SSD slot, the one in the video you pointed to, how do you put a memory solid state memory card in there? I bought one installed it but it was asking for a ID key? I thought it was a plug and play 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ the the ke has letters and numbers, only number the input would take. Theft make it looks easy until u buy the part. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Sir my hp elitebook 745 is not opening is just start and off itself with h cut sound
Thank you for showing a detail video for upgrading to SSD. Can you show me how to install other type of SSD in HP G1 laptop e.g. M.2 card slot and how to configure boot.
My pleasure. Installing of M.2 card is pretty strait forward; however, I don't think this Laptop supports boot function from M.2 (I will look in to that) I made a video recently showing how to install the M.2 on another PC which is the same: th-cam.com/video/yuJKThJkirQ/w-d-xo.html
Here is the video of me testing speed on M.2, Sata SSD and HD magnetic: th-cam.com/video/k5-CLHM8VxE/w-d-xo.html
Honestly, if you get Samsung 860 Evo Sata SSD amzn.to/2DluDu6 it will be pretty similar performance as M.2 for daily use.
@@Cobuman I have one G3 that support the M.2 the other port I have 1 TB 2.5 HDD
Can i install ssd with hdd in this laptop??? I mean about this place where wroted ssd.
Thanks, really helpful, BTW I wanted to ask that, is there an alternative to the ssd caddy kit for 840 g1, like can I use the HP elitebook 9470m's hardisk caddy kit because I'm unable to get its own caddy kit in my region due to unavailability
Sure thing. It should be the same thing. Those things are based of standard size of HDD in which case SSDs are as well.
Can i Upgrade my HP Elitebook 850 G2 with a 16gb kit from HyperX HX316LS9IBK2/16 Impact Arbeitsspeicher, DDR3L 16GB (Kit 2x8), 1600MHz, CL9, SODIMM 1,35V or should i buy just a 4gb ram stick
The SSD M.2 Slot at HP 840 G3 are not readable too bro?
@cobuman
I have genuine windows 10 built-in with 840 G1. The serial key is available. If I would replace the SSD how can I restore previous genuine windows?
I have 128 GB SSD. Is it OK if I upgrade with HP SSD 500GB-S700 3D NAND?
Thanks in advance
How can I know when i put it in if it working I need help please I have a 810 g1
can you clone from the m.2 ssd to the other drive and boot from it?
thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. by the way, may i inquire please for the model size of the M.2 slot for 840 g1? the one that goes with the nomenclatures of 22XX, 2XXish.
Sure thing. So, the size supported is 2242 NGFF M.2 . Here is an example of what should work: amzn.to/2XOSjT7 If you have any issues you may need to update the BIOS.
@@Cobuman dear sir the issue is that , 2242 NGFF M. 2 has 2 keys (2 notch or grove) and HP Elitebook 840 G1 has 1 key or notch
2:35 Is the M.2 with black shield can also use SSD?
Bonjour est ce que le disque dur SSD c'est un SATA ou SATA 3? merci
Hey can we use ssd(nvme) and use hdd at the same time
How about the os in the old hard drive, how to move it to the other drive before replacing?
This is just an example on how to backup data. th-cam.com/video/awPJUI7jzvo/w-d-xo.html
After that you can install fresh OS to new drive using USB stick. Here is an example of installing OS: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
Hi can you tell me where to buy a new battery for this laptop
I tried so much but i didn't found the specific one.
Hello, sure thing. Amazon has plenty of options; like this one: amzn.to/2TyrIn7
Hi
can I use
Samsung SSD PM991 M.2
2242 42mm PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe MZALQ256HAJD MZ-ALQ2560 Solid State Drive
On
Hp Elitebook 840 G2 core i7 5600U 2.6 GHz
And which capacity it will fit
512 GB or 256 GB ??
Do you need to use a 7mm to 9.5mm ssd adapter? The reason I ask is because Crucial's website mentions it.
The adapter holds the SSD in place but you should already have it. You probably know already, but it's the metal bracket that SSD is attached to as shown in video.
Nice video !!
Sorry for m'y english 😊
I need to install SSD m2 (System w10) and HDD SATA 4To (Data) with 15 mm (thickness).
Knowing that the fixing is done on the lower part of the Disc, do you think that the 15 mm thick Disc passes?
Windows 10 bootable on SSD m2 ?
You advise me to take which SSD m2 (240Giga) ?
No problem. Are you trying to install m.2 on this laptop 840 G1 or G2 or G3?
Normally I suggest Samsung 970 Evo for m.2 amzn.to/3bSc4gy but if you have this laptop it may not work.
@@Cobuman I plan to buy an hp elite 820 G2 or 840 G2
@@crashremy This laptop has an older m.2 to interface that may not be compatible with newer m.2 drives like mentioned Samsung 970. This is still a good laptop but I would just buy a SATA SSD like Samsung 860 EVO and use that. Like this: amzn.to/3bOWORG
@@Cobuman When you talk about the old m2 connector, is it for the hp 820G2 version or the hp 840G2 version or both versions?
@@crashremy so which nvme ssd should I buy that can fit in this laptop? thanks
can you upgrade or add a graphics card other than the intel for editing or gaming purposes ....?
I don't believe so... I've seen people add external graphics card on other laptops but not sure if it would work with this one.
HP Elitebook 840 G1 notebook pc:, motherboard has single notch
Does it support m. 2 NVME,?,
If it support whats the size of ssd
Product: HP Elitebook 840 G3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-Bit)
has any one tried Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB on HP Elitebook 840 G3?
i bought the 970 evoplus, however in BIOS (already updated to latest 1.45v) under hard disk diagnose, its say no hard disk found. when tried to install a fresh copy of windows 7, when creating partition, its say no devices found.
@cobuman , Can I install both M.2 SSD and 2.5 inch SSD on HP Elitebook 840 G3 ? If I installed M.2 SSD and replace the HDD with 2.5 inch SSD, will the notebook detect both M.2 and 2.5 inch SSD drives?
Computer should detect both drives that are installed.
I have this same laptop and per defaul it can only install programs in the tiny hard drive which is only 32 GB, this greatly limits my usage of the laptop and causes problems continously as well, can I modify that?
I'd like to know this as well. Same thing for my 820 g2. Can I upgrade the ssd for the program files? I've already got a 500gb hdd new volume but it's a hassle since the program files don't even fit entirely on the 32gb drive.
I have this HP Elitebook 840 G1. The hard drive just crashed. If I get a new hard drive where and how do I get the operting system for the new hard drive?
You can just download win 10 from Microsoft. It should install without problems and will not ask for activation or anything. Boot from USB stick. Here is my video tutorial: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
I have same issue on same laptop. What to do ? Do I need to buy new operating system License key ?
Sorry to ask silly questions but after replacing the harddrive how can I get windows 10 on the new ssd
Good question. Yes, you can reinstall Windows 10 on the same computer. Here is my video: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
My original SSD was "Samsung 256GB 2.5" HDD SATA SSD MZ7PD256HAFV-000H7 HP-PN 717354-001"
In Windows 10 setup when I get to "Where do you want to install windows?" I can see "Drive 0 unallocated space 465.8 GB", I select Drive 0, I click next and get the hourglass for several minutes (it never goes to the next screen) and evenually a message ""We couldn't install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive. Here's more info about what happened: 0x80070057" appears at the bottom of the "Where do you want to install windows?" window.
Nice video dude. Can you please tell me from where i can buy keyboard of this laptop
Thanks bro. Amazon has the replacement keyboard: amzn.to/2LvEGBR
what about its ssd m2
What's the name and its details?
does this laptop support HDD?1 TB, like 2TB?
you put a 500GB ssd but in the hp support documents when you check the g1 model,
it says that it upports up to 256GB SED ssd and 2.5" 240GB ssd.
So does a g1 work with 500gb ssd?
What you read on HP site is what they sold as an option for that model. It supports up to 2TB drives.
What is the size (form factor) of the NVME SSD drive that this Notebook supports?
2242
Do you have one where you up grade the SSD memory card? I bought one online and praying I bought the right one only China you can get a use one for my 840 elite book
This is the video for that.
@@Cobuman thank you for your answer. You will have to format that drive also true?
After installing a new 1 TB SSD, I see the following message: "BootDevice Not Found Please install an operating system on your hard drive Hard Disk - (3F0)". How do I fix this?
You need to install the operating system on to the new SSD. It's blank from factory. Here is an example how to do it: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
Its actually pretty simple. Get a SATA to usb cable, hook up to another computer, go to this pc thru the documents folder in the taskbar, then right click over this pc, and choose manage, choose, storage, then computer management. Here it will list the drives and a pop up should appear asking you to initiate the drive so you need to know whether you're going to use gpt or mbr formatting and this depends on if your bios is set up to utilize ntfs or uefi??? Once you know, initialize accordingly and then hover over the correct drive, right click again, and choose format. After that, you can now install the drive and it will be recognized and ready to take a windows installation.
Which SSD faster for this PCI SSD or SATA SSD which you using on this video
I have speed comparison video which I think is what you are asking about: th-cam.com/video/k5-CLHM8VxE/w-d-xo.html
Will it work with 745 g3
Is this laptop have backlight keyboard? I mean the model is hp840 g2. I got this model but no backlight!
Yes it does. It got me thinking for a second so I went to double check. But yes, it does have backlit keyboard. Last week I've noticed something odd about these laptops. At my work we have many of the same model but some have different color plastic and different color keyboard.

Depends which laptop you have... some have 2 slots and some don't.
helpfull
I'm glad you like it.
Can you do a video on how to upgrade from HDD to SSD on this same laptop?
It's the same processes. HDD has same connection, size and shape.
@@Cobuman Ok, but what about reinstalling Win 10 without the disk and getting all the drivers downloaded that originally were on the HDD?
Nicccccee i”’ planning to add this Samsung EVO 850 1T to my msi gl62m 7rdx but I don’t know if It gonna fit in the device :(
It will. I have MSI GL62M as well and will make a video on it soon. With those laptops you need to remove screws that follow the outside of bottom cover and a couple towards middle. If you want to wait for my video... it will be a few more days. :)

OK I have questons: I have HP 840 G1 EliteBook, ordered Samsung SSD 860 EVO 500GB 2.5 inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-76E500B/AM). Installing Windows 10 from USB and get "We couldn't install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive. Here's more info about what happened: 0x80070057" HP support says I can't use the 500Gb model you recommend in this notebnook. Are they wrong?
They are 100% wrong. At my work I did this upgrade on 30+ Laptops that were 840 G1 no problem. The original SSD inside is/was Samsung 120GB. Do you see the new 500GB SSD when you try to install Windows 10?
You may need to format the 500GB drive. Also, here is my video on Windows 10 install: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
@@Cobuman Hi, tks for vid. Have u ever tried the 1Tb SAMSUNG EVO SSD in a HP 840 G3? tks
So I have this computer I mainly use it for Photoshop and Sony Vegas but for Photoshop it says not enough ram when I try saving work & for Sony Vegas when I try to preview the video it’s laggy when I add effects. Would upgrading it to 16 GB RAM and 500 GB SSD or 1TB SSD help my situation? Also what would you recommend for my situation the 500 GB SSD or 1TB SSD
Excellent question. Adding 16gb of RAM is definitely a good idea when it comes to Adobe products and video editing in general; however, keep in mind that the lag is caused by CPU not able to processes the video fast enough with effects added... That being said, upgrading to SSD will huge improvement in video seek and loading times which can inherently improve the processing speeds. But, after you add more RAM and upgrade to SSD will it fix the lag?... maybe, unless your CPU becomes the bottleneck at this point.
cobuman Is there anything I can do with the CPU? & thank you for your response.
@@N6tys Unfortunately, the CPU on 840 g1 laptops is soldered to motherboard so it can not be upgraded without special equipment.
cobuman okay thank you. One last question do you think it’s worth it to upgrade with my problems?
@@N6tys I'd say try upgrading to SSD first because if you change to another PC you can transfer the new SSD over.
laptop does not seem to boot after installing SSD, media test failure check cable message appears... bad ssd?
could be, check to see if it's pushed in all the way. I would also check BIOS to see if it shows up. If it does show up in BIOS you should be able to install Windows OS from USB drive.
@@Cobuman thx, it does show up in BIOS, will try creating USB drive with Windows OS
@@henkboute9856 nice!
@cobuman Ok, now to the next part with this exact computer or the like. New drive is installed now how do you get Windows on it and under boot change all and drive to C:/ to this ssd drive. Now I know many vids on this, but most are fast talk, no talk and just mouse or blair music. This vid and speed was nice. I just prdered 2 1tb Evo for these two laptops and will get this week. Problem is I never did this so I am at a stand still. Now I will say for myself nothing is on computer so I can just pull and install. Product key sticker shows Win 7 and this laptop is 10 pro. Paid of course and not hack. Many things I need to know like on media creation do I do win 7 or choose 10 pro and so on. You have a vid for all this after new drive install? I will ask also when it comes to ram is it put the card in and go or things have to be done to get it to work with computer? I'm understanding this exact computer is on DDR3 ram cards right?
Okay, no problem. Below you will find two videos that will show you.
1. Install Windows 10: th-cam.com/video/4wKitW_Cn4E/w-d-xo.html
2. Add more RAM: th-cam.com/video/rSoqhW2lYC8/w-d-xo.html
note. you can use Windows 7 key to actived Windows 10. Good luck.
@@Cobuman thanks. I have installed the Samsung Evo 500gb. I have got media creation tool and on boot seen the Windows 10 pro selection. I installed off usb and all is done and on Drive C:/. Went very smooth and fast. Wow the ssd vs hdd speed is fast. From power on to login is about 5 sec. Course nothing else is on computer but os. I did up the ram and I goofed on that. I had to learn the hard way and money wasted. So appears I myself missed the pc3 and pc3L thing on the ram. L being low voltage which this exact laptop takes and will not take a pc3 ram. So after that lick I have 2 8gb cards installed. Rest is history for the first time on all this. Next up in time I need to do my main laptop. It's a HP notebook 2000 4gb { caps out at a 8gb ) ram on AMD processor, Windows 10. 250 gb hdd which I got to rock back and forth all the time files to external due to space left about 34gb. I plan to just buy another 840 g1 prob i7 processor and clone to a 1tb. Which that should be fun being I never done. Clone old drive to new ssd that is. I have this old computer clogged with many things and many software's. I have two things I can't find info on and I been looking. 1. When clone of a old drive to new, will I loose all settings on new computer? I think I will because that is on memory on board correct? Settings as in say firewall under add and block internet connection to certain stuff etc? 2. Lets talk Windows 8.1 a sec. Microsoft says they no longer sell or have. Most anyone I talk with saying they don't have at local computer shop. I see no Windows 8.1 on this media creation tool thing. Where can I get that tool with it on it? Or the iso or whatever file it is to put on a usb to boot/ install on a drive? I need it. As in a good file not a questioned one like torrent file ect not knowing what all other goodies may be added.
@@Cobuman If I'm upgrading both RAM and SSD, I assume I can do it all at once?

The 840 G1 uses the ( M.2 2242 ) form factor, they are readily available.
No , its not fit inside the laptop because of 2 notch ( 2 keys)
Hello.. is this laptop good for video editing?
With i5 it does good (1080p). With i7 it's faster while encoding the finished video.
If doing 4K videos I would add more RAM and SSD for sure. Without a lot of special effects added to video; the main thing that slows down processing of finished product is the quality/bit rate you specify it to be. So, 4K video can be 100mb bit rate and if you try to process it with any computer it will take a very long time depending on the video duration. You can always drop down to 45mb bit rate which is still very good for youtube and saves time. 1080p no problems though. :)
