I recently bought this

To replace the hard drive in this:
HP 255 G7 Notebook https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c06194380

Running Linux mint bootable to get this to show.

Is the drive being detected in the BIOS/UEFI Setup?

No, it's not

Then it's either not correctly connected/powered, or it's faulty

Can you test it on another PC ?

I mean, It's showing up, I'm pretty sure it's powered, I'm starting to think it's maybe not supported?image.thumb.png.c4c4944d7ef77c5910dcd291b81a807c.png

But you just said it's not showing up in the UEFI setup. So is it or not? 

 

That page on HP's website is just based on what configurations HP ships. SATA is a universal standard so you can use any SATA drive on any SATA port. The only difference is the supported speed based on the revision of the port and the drive. But it's all backward compatible.

This is what comes up when I go to UEFI firmwareimage.thumb.jpeg.89515079f01f6628718ace3c81ce00e0.jpeg

This is BIOS

gotta format the partition, otherwise it's RAW or unknown

 

Delete that 105MB volume and format the entire drive as ext4 or whatever you use

Is the hard drive still usable, and currently bootable?

Go into the shell and check if there is a storage device: ls /dev

Might be something like /dev/SDA. If you see such a storage device you could run smartctl -a /dev/SDA to check the SMART values.

The Declaration of Independence, once the charter of democracy, begins by saying that certain things are self-evident. If we were to trace the history of the American mind from Thomas Jefferson to William James, we should find that fewer and fewer things were self-evident, until at last hardly anything is self-evident. (G. K. Chesterton - Aug. 14 1926 (The Illustrated London News))
