Laptop Upgrade

[max668]

Hi all!

I have purchased a hp envy x360 amd edition rizon 5 and radion gpu( sweet machine  if you aske me )

It came with a m.2 250 gb and 8 gb of ram

 

I waned to install a ssd to get more storage but when I took it apart the cable for ssd is not there

Also waned to know what kind of ram is in there....

Does anyone know what ribbon cable I need ?  if you know the model number that would be amazing

Something like this, however you should find a part list for your model to find the exact part because I can't promise that will work. you might be able to get it from HP if you contact them directly. When talking about laptops it's important to always use the exact model number, not just the specs. like for example, I have an hp envy 13 ah0051wm. With that people can find the specific hardware for the model. It is more important in laptops where they will use custom connections over the standards desktops use.

I have tried They kept reconnecting me from one department to the next ... I spoke with like 6 people and it went nowhere ... 
I was hoping someone would know or has a laptop like that with the cable inside and might have a pic of it ... ( wishful thinking I know )

Try looking up your laptop model number on HPs website https://parts.hp.com/

@GeneXiS_X I got this

 

@max668 So from what I can tell from your post your trying to upgrade the SSD and RAM right? 

This is what my Envy X360 looks like. My guess is that your looking for the cable attached to my HDD (the silvery looking thing next to the battery)

 

As for the RAM, Its DDR4 SODIMM running at 2400 Mhz. Its under the smaller metal plate next to the heatsink

I think he was just trying to add an SSD?
Does your cable have a part number on it? This one looks pretty similar and says its for an envy x360 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hard-Drive-HDD-Cable-HP-Envy-X360-M6-AQ-M6-AQ105DX-M6-AR-856788-001-450-07K06-00/253945987729?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D2b87cc5b61b1453496251a77d8054fca%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D323654473796%26itm%3D253945987729&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

YES!!! My laptop didnt come with a ssd and it doesnt have the cable ( look at the pic ) and I am trying to find the right one I can plug in there so I can install a ssd.

As far as the ram I was going to make a separate post about that but since you mentioned it...

Inside i have 2 of those can you suggest good ram ? I think the max I can have is 16 gb so 2 8gb sticks.

I was looking around but I dont know much about  ram and what the numbers mean soo

Thanks for your post

yea I found couple of those even on amazon

But I wouldnt want to just chance it so a mobel number would be ideal

If you have 2 then you already have dual channel RAM. Don't need to upgrade. x2 8GB RAM is also possible if you want to do that (any RAM stick with 2400MHz CL17 spec will do)

Would that work ?

Might be a dumb question what does CL17 mean ?
