HP ENVY TouchSmart 15t-j000 Quad Edition Notebook PC - MEMORY TYPE

Hello,
I ordered this PC with 8GB DDR3 System Memory (1 Dimm).  I want to purchase 1 more 8GB stick to max out the memory but I'm not sure what type to get?  I would have added it when I built it but for some reason it wouldn't allow me to since I selected the 24GB mSSD option.  This was the error message:
Selection caused conflict24GB Solid State Hard Drive Acceleration Cache requires purchase of 4GB, 6GB or 8GB System Memory. Update Memory or Hard Drive Acceleration Cache .
Please help and thanks!

I guess the 24GB mSDD cache is used to store both windows 8 and the data from memory during sleep or hiberbnation for fast boot and instant on purpose. 16GB is used to store windows 8 and 8GB is used to store memory data. If memory is 16GB, the mSSD cache should be at least 32GB. If you upgrade mSSD to 32GB, it should be OK.

    Hi,
    There will be a common 2.5" hard drive or a hybrid which means that you should be able to replace it by a solid state drive as these are manufactured in the same sizes as common hard drives (7mm, 9.5mm, 12.5mm etc..). Perhaps some manufacturers make only 9.5 or 12.5mm drives but I don't think there will be a 7mm hdd anyway.

    Yes, this laptop supports Intel 7260AC wireless cards. I think that the whitelist is not there anymore. If you browse further this forum you can find threads with users confirming the chip is compatible and working well.

  • Replace HDD with SSD for HP ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition Notebook PC

    I'd like to buy a HP ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition Notebook PC and a HP v300a 120GB SATA Solid State Drive with Upgrade Kit.
    Now the SSD has a 7mm thickness.
    My question is if I can replace the HDD with this SSD? How thick is the HDD bay in the laptop.
    If it's more than 7mm will the SSD move inside it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The old HDD on your machine is a bit thicker but with at least 4 screws I don't think new SSD will floating around in the case. I actually put new SSD in one of my laptop (not HP) and no problem BUT I don't move this laptop around. If needed, blue tac may help.

    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition CTO Notebook PC and issues with a white screen just appearing.

  • ENVY TouchSmart 15t-j100 Quad Edition mSSD cache & Ram options

    Good day all,
    I've ordered the ENVY TouchSmart 15t-j100 Quad Edition from HP directly and during the configuration, it was mentioned that I could not configure the notebook with both the 24Gb mSSD Hard Drive Acceleration Cache AND 16Gb of Ram. I wondered if it was a memory slot usage issue but I can configure with either 2x4Gb or 1x8Gb with no warning. Is it possible to add another 8Gb (as I ordered it with 1x8Gb) after getting this laptop or would having the mSSD Cache actually prohibit this?
    Thanks for any help offered.
    Richard
    *not sure if it's of any consequence to the issue but the Hard Drive ordered for this system was a Hybrid.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    It is not a physical problem with blockage of the memory slot but having 16 gigs of RAM means the cache drive may not work right. The cache drive has to be able to store everything in memory and then certain other files and the HP designers have decided it would take a bigger cache drive to work right with more than 8 gigs of RAM. 

  • HP Envy 15t-j000 Quad Edition Notebook PC left 'ctrl' key extremely sensitive

    I just got this laptop new, and the left ctrl is sensitive enough to think it's being pressed when i have the weight of my pinky merely resting on it. Do I get some kind of warranty coverage for this, and if not, how can I get this fixed? Thanks.

    Hi,
    At first, please try a Hard Reset as follows.
    Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.
    When the Notebook restarts keep tapping the f10 key to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults (this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Please let me know whether you see any change in the sensitivity of the key.
    I am waiting to hear back from you.

  • HP ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Ed. Upgrades/Modifications

    Hello All,
    My next laptop will most likly be the ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition with Windows 8 Professional. However I have several questions before I purchase this machine. I hope the knowledge base here can help.
    1) Is it possible to reconfigure the laptop to use the mSATA SSD hard drive acceleration cache as the primary boot drive?
    2) The ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition can be optioned with a 24GB mSATA SSD. What is the maximum memory capacity this laptop will recognize? ie, 64Gb, 128Gb, 256GB....
    3) When customizing the ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition through HP's Customize and Buy, why am I limited to 8Gb of memory when selecting 24Gb mSATA Acceleration Cache?
    4) Is there a limit to the memory capacity of HHDs and SSDs the ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition is capable of recognizing?
    5) The ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition comes with two drive bays. What are the physical limits for hard drives in the bays? Specifically, will 15mm 2.5" HDDs fit?
    6) If I purchase the ENVY TouchSmart 17T-j000 Quad Edition with an empty 2nd HDD bay, will I need to purchase additional adaptors and/or cables in the future to attach a second HDD?
    I do apologize for so many questions however if I'm going to pay more than $1200 for a laptop I need to ask a few. Thank you for taking the time to read and respond.
    For those interested this possible future buy is replacing an 8 year old HP Pavilion ZV-6130us Windows XP Pro SP3 with 2Gb RAM, a 256Gb primary HDD and a 2nd 1Tb HDD in the optical drive bay. The only failures in 8 years was one cooling fan 2-3 years ago and the optical drive 4 years ago. This HP has been good to me.
    Again, Thanks.

    There is nothing wrong with your computer. The flash to F.64 went fine, however the new BIOS can't locate the boot record on the hard drive. Please back-up the hard drive, including all your personal data using a Linux LiveCD and external hard drive, or connect the drive to another working computer.
    Next, use the HP Recovery Media you created when you first setup the computer to return it to a factory like state.

  • ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition Hard Drive Thickness

    I'm looking to replace the hard drive in my ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition with an SSD. HP's site currently does not list the thickness the the preinstalled hard drive. I would prefer to get an ssd that does not leave any extra unused space in the computer. What is the thickness of the hard drive installed in the ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition so I can upgrade to an equally sized ssd? Thank you.

    Hi,
    It's very safe to use 7mm thick, as mentioned in my first reply.

  • Hp envy 15t j000 quad edition ssd upgrade: what to know

    Hello everyone so im going to buy an hp envy 15t j000 quad edition for school and was looking online to see what i can upgrade on it to make it faster. Im not very knowledgable with computers so i need lots of help! While doing so i found out the hp comes with a hard disk drive (hdd) and that these are prone to damage over time and dropping, moving, ect. I learned that solid state drives (ssd) are prefered and can make the computer significantly faster and wont be as vunerable as the disk drive. Im upgrading the envy with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M Graphics with 2048MB of dedicated video memory, 15.6-inch diagonal Full HD BrightView LED-backlit Display (1920x1080), and the 12GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) option. Will any of this affect my swapping of the hdd? I also was wondering why the 8gb ddr3 system memory (2dimm) didn't affect the price for switching to the 12gb option.There isnt a difference right? also would the 24gb accelrated cache be of any use? For my last question i think i heard that i would need to clone or buy another copy of windows 8 to put on the new ssd. will there be any problems doing this? Am i in for a headache?

    Pepe999
    I went on to Tom's Hardware to looking into the 16GB memory.. there is a recent report where adding 16 gb-ddr3 ram.. will increase the life of a SSD drive by 63% compared to 4gb.. here is the link.. thought it was interesting and supported my thinking in reducing the number of HD writes.

    thought I'd share it with you.. what do you think..

  • WLAN for HP ENVY 15t-j100 Quad Edition Notebook PC

    I just purchased a HP ENVY 15t-j100 Quad Edition Notebook PC with Windows 7 (February 2014).
    It comes with 802.11bgn 1×1 WLAN module, which is not satisfactory so I would like to upgrade the WLAN to an Intel 7260ac.
    According to the user manual, the following two parts are the only WLAN whitelisted by the BIOS:
    #1:
    Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 802.11 ac 1×1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter
    Spare part number = 710662-001
    #2:
    Intel Dual Band Wireless 7260 802.11 bgn 2×2 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter
    Spare part number = 717384-001
    I cannot find any of these models anywhere! I do find a 710661-001 on Amazon (which would be great if the BIOS accepts it! and good price too at about $35).
    Could someone tell me if I can put this WLAN card (710661-001 on Amazon) or where to buy the HP approved #1 and/or #2 card listed above?
    Thank you!

Nothing works.Do you know how I can do this?ThanksHi, Marius. Here is how: 1. Press the Shift key as you shut down your laptop normally.2. Wait at least 10 seconds with the laptop off.3. Press the Power button and then immediately press the ESC key on the upper left of your keyboard, about once per second. You will soon see a Recovery screen menu that instructs you to press the F10 button to go directly to your BIOS menu. Pressing the ESC key is easy to remember; that way, you don't have to memorize the other F button choices. Easy! Good luck!
