Thanks for this video which i found very helpful. I appreciated your commentary, with tips like hinging the lid away from the VGA port when removing. So much better than simply playing annoying music!

Helped me a lot, thank you.

Can I use the same cable for a SSD, what typ of SSD should I buy to do this? Thank you for your help

This was helpful. Thanks for posting it. Just upgraded to a Samsung EVO860 (500Gb SSD). What a difference!

Thank you. This helped me to upgrade my $10 HP255 G5 to an SSD drive. Now it boots in 6 seconds. Not bad. On my 255 G5 the two inner battery screws are short and the rest are long. Other than that and the fact the HDD has pins not screws the video helped me upgrade in 10 minutes.

Thanks. It made my job much easier.

Thanks for sharing, done it a few minutes ago and everything went flawless 👌🙏

Thank you! I thought this process was going to be a hot mess like the Hp 14 stream. This is a major relief

did you tried to repaste, the cpu and gpu, i have a r5 430m and i would like to try to repaste and overclock, is there any headroom left for some extra cooling blocks? would some extra cooling holes directly under the cooling vent help temperature?

Super vidéo bravo et merci beaucoup one question : do you have put one SDD in place of DD ?

Thanks for the video. I found it much easier to remove the optical drive before lifting the palmrest.

Excellent video, thanks very much.

Awesome, thank you, quick and to the point. Helped me a lot.

Blooming brilliant… just upgraded to sod without a hitch, superb stuff, big thanks :)

Very helpful, thank you for this video.

Got all the screws out but now I'm stuck. In the video, you're unclipping the back panel by sliding a credit card in between and gently prying. That looks perfect. However with mine there is no gap whatsoever between the back panel and top/palmrest. Forget about sliding a credit card in - I can't even get a razor blade in between those two parts. It's as though it's one solid piece. If I feel where the gap/joint should be with my thumb nail I can indeed feel that there is a slight joint/junction there but not one that ANYTHING could ever possibly get into without breaking or damaging the plastic of the parts. It's as though there are two pieces connected together - but it's like they've been glued or something. There seems to be no actual gap between them that a credit card, a razor blade, a knife, or any other instrument could conceivably slide (or push) into. Any ideas or suggestions?? Any trick or advice that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated as the hard drive has died and I desperately need to replace it. Thanks

Very useful video! Thank you!

Extremely helpful, thank you!

I managed to swap my dying HDD for a and new SDD and now my laptop is running much faster. Big thanks for the video! :)

Thanks. Very clear instructions.

Hey, great video! I just subscribed. I do have a question, though: I wanted to upgrade to an SSD, does this laptop support a SATA 3 connection?

The laptop contains an SSD or HDD? Can I use this hard drive (from the laptop) on my desktop for extra space?

Thank you

Newbie amateur tech, can I cannibalize parts from an HP Omen and put them in a 250? Are there any compatibility issues? They are both Intel ( one I5 and other I3).

You beautiful amazing man!!! My lap top back is now off and i can see where the mother board is and the hard drive are. Got to work out which bits they are, don't want to remove the wrong bit eh? Can I put any hard drive in to replace the one I broke?

Hello Dear friend and Congratulations for your videos. I have the same laptop with an internal ssd M2 connector instead of HD connector. If the ssd Disk is removed will the laptop startup or not? Thanks for your Help!!!

Tengo uno de esos mismo cual.pido para cambiarlo ? Por favor ayuda

I have HP 250 g5 , Intel Celeron N3060 and i dont have fan inside, is this possible ?

What kind of screwdriver is that? When I open the back the screws are way too small for my screwdriver so I can't remove the HDD

Hi, i have a HP 250 G5, it powers on but the screen remains black and the hard drives not responding. Ive replaced the hard drive with a working one but still cannot display anything. I also tried replacing the RAM but still no changes. Lastly it also cannot connect to a second display or monitor..Any idea or tip..??

what is size of this disk ? i want to put ssd but i dont know what size i need to buy

Thanks for this brother. I am 5 years late lol. Better late than never. Can I upgrade my old HP 250 G5s hard drive with a Sata Adapter with M.2 in it? and would that help speed up the performance? I want to give it to my kids to use for homework and school. Love you videos and thank you for this

So there’s no way to just add an SSD? I would need an external HDD If i wanted the best of both worlds?

on that model can you add more ram?

thanks, now I have the SSD and all is fast. Just couldn't open 3 rear clips without breaking them. I need more practice:)

Hi! Can you connect SSD by JODD???

Does this laptop support an m.2 drive

What ssd did you use in this vid?

Can I add 512GB ssd SATA 3????

Does this motherboard has m.2

I could not do it, 😥 i made it ok until the part before of take off the back. It seems all ok, all the borders were un clipped but it is like it is another curb in the middle, i have fear to broke it 💔 and the vga conector i dont know i hope i did not broke it 😭

what size screwdriver do you use

I did it myself and saved 10 dollars labour charges hehe

what about cloning the drive

cani add hardisck also in place of dvd drive

ok. this is too simple. How about a jodd slot? how about a connector to link removed HDD to that?

Shows nothing about the screws under the rubber pads. watch out for those

What's the port just beside the hard drive? For whats it's used? imgur.com/a/B4N13qj

From a repair point of view, this product is a perfect example of how NOT to design a laptop :-(
