HP 2000-250CA Memory & SSD Upgrade - So Fast after Upgrade!

Hello Youtube, it's P&T with a laptop upgrading video. Recently, a customer brought in his old laptop. Yes... it was extremely old. It's got a Pentium Dual Core CPU with only 4GB DDR3 RAM. We decided to upgrade the RAM to 8GB DDR3 and 500GB SSD from a traditional HDD. The result? It is now faster than a new laptop priced around $500 dollars. Instead of buying a new laptop, consider the SSD and Memory upgrade. It's Worth it. Most importantly, You Can Do It by Yourself!

Awesome! Thank you for this video I was about to purchase a new laptop now I will upgrade my hard drive and add another 4gb Ram.

Great video! Thank you.

I wish you had recommended or given examples of compatible ssd drives and more info about closing the old drive.

I just ordered more RAM and I'm on a search for an SSD.

This video was EXACTLY what I was looking for. I have an old HP 2000 series notebook and have never changed the ram or HDD this has now given me the confidence to do so. Now on the hunt for the correct parts :) thanks for the information, keep it up!

Hi, I want to upgrade my RAM and I can't be sure what the max capacity is. Manual says 8GB and Command Prompt when I put the command wmic memphysical get MaxCapacity, MemoryDevices it returns "max capacity 16777215" and "memry devices 2".



So do I need to install 2x4GB ram or 2x8GB if able?

Hey bro cool video. I have a much older one and it was a pretty good laptop in it's day, an HP Pavilion DV 2550se. I'm in the process of fixing it, I had to buy a new charger because the old one had disappeared and just ordered a new lcd panel for it as it is cracked. I have other things that I have to sort out because it is giving other errors which I can't attempt to fix because of the cracked screen. I see that you upgraded your ram and your hdd to ssd. I've found out that I can upgrade my ram to 4gb, for cheap! I was looking to update my hdd to ssd or a better hdd. I was wondering if you had any product recommendations? Whether it is a better hdd or ssd? The current HDD is a WD1600BEVS. If you can't give me a specific answer or product I would appreciate any tips! I like the games of the era which the laptop came out so that's what I was going to use it for. Thanks. Liked and Subscribed!

Hello! I’ve added a 4gb Ram to my hp 2000 which now operates on an 8gb ram. However my laptop is still kind of slow. Do you have any suggestions I can do to enhance the speed ?
