My new m.2 ssd (lemmy.ca)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/mildlyinfuriating
 

Got a used HP Probook laptop. Just needs a new drive. HP specs say it has an m.2 2280 slot. So that's what I ordered. Guess I needed to look closer.

edit: Thanks for all the info, guys. Different types of keys are explained here. Gonna have to look for a sketchy no-name brand.

~~Reading up on HP ProBooks and it seems like they primarily use M2 SATA.~~

EDIT: Wow, trying to find in-depth tech specs on HP laptops is horrible. I know less now than when I started looking.

Story of my past couple months. There are five different products named "g4 dock", four of which are newer than the G5 dock.

The OLD g4 dock, and then 120W/280W Thunderbolt variants that are either TAA approved or not. One of these four has a 2.5GB Intel NIC. Good luck figuring out which one because they merged the specsheet for all four of them.

The trick with HP anything is to look for the quickspec . It's stupidly the most detailed doc they produce

This is why I avoid HP laptops (as well as Asus) like plagues.

I agree, but it was free.

I avoid HP laptops

... by listening to your physiotherapist and avoiding laptops altogether? Score!

laptops are not real, they can't hurt me

Because they love to change the URLs of their website every year. For an old product everything a search engine gives you is an error 404.

You need the service manual, and in the service manual there's all the detailed specs and variants and exact product numbers of supported components

Because they love to change the URLs of their website every year.

One of the universal truths is that a drunk sailor with a fistful of money could simply not buy anything on the HP site before he sobered up. That site is the hallmark of super-bad site design, and always has been.

I know the feeling. I logged into HP hoping to look up the serial number. All it would tell me is that the warranty is expired.
