Basic bootup speeds won~t cut it ~ not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that~s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.

Use for system image backup
on October 13, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have an older machine that uses one of these for the
system drive. It works so well, and is priced so well, that
I purchased a second one to use for system image backups. I clone my system drive to this each month, to
use as a backup. It is a fairly fast process, and provides
a good way to recover if a problem develops.

Powerful upgrade for a gaming computer
on October 2, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this drive as an upgrade for my system drive in my
new gaming computer. This drive is as fast as advertised
(see my test results below). At the start of the test it was
at 37deg C. At the end of the test it was at 51deg C, but it
was back to 37deg C in just 4 minutes.
I had no issues cloning my system on to this drive using
Acronis. I have had no issues running my new gaming
computer with this drive in the 2 months I have had this
drive.
This was a good purchase, and has enhanced the
capabilities of my new gaming computer.

Battery charge doesn’t last
By MariaC
Doesn’t hold charge for very long. But the quality of the picture is great . Fast connection. The only problem was my daughter used it for school and she would have to constantly charge the lap top
Adjust power and display settiings
November 14, 2023
Your problem might be solved by adjusting the power and display settings. For example, lower the brightness setting for the display. Also, shorten the time before the screen goes blank if there is no activity.

HO Pavilion — caveat emptor
By MichaelB
Thought I was buying an exact copy of the laptop I had when I ordered it online. Took it out of the box and it was NOT the same. My fault for trusting HP. The old HP Pavillion had a backlit keyboard and a good touchpad, which the replacement doesnt. Also, it seems to jump randomly to different cells when I am working in a spreadsheet. On the plus side, more storage and lower price point.
I recommend you test drive HP Pavillions rather than buy them online, because you dont know what you are going to get online
Different variant
November 14, 2023
Good points! After doing some online research I learned that large chains like Best Buy often have a variant of a device that is slightly different to what is described on the manufacturer's website. Sometimes it might have some additional feature, and sometimes it will be missing some feature. You will sometimes find that the product id listed on the seller's website does not appear on the manufacturer's website - which is an indicator of a special variant for that seller.

Soldered RAM
By JustinA
It didn’t say that the RAM was soldered in the laptop. I couldn’t use a recently bought ram into it. The sellers said that I can upgrade it but maybe they didn’t know that the ram was soldered. Overall its good just disappointed by the non upgradable RAM
Good point
November 14, 2023
You made a good point. I had to do some searching to learn that the RAM was not upgradeable. However, I also learned that HP installed the RAM in an optimal way, by installing two identical 4GB chips that run in parallel. This is far better than installing one 8GB chip.

Paper clip eject

I have had a similar experience but used a paper clip that I pushed into the tiny hole next to the eject button. It worked perfectly afterward. I think this method has a far smaller chance of physically damaging the drive.

Decent laptop, decent price.
By Squarehard
The laptop is a good one and does just about anything basic you will need it for.
If you're buying for just standard use like browsing, streaming, or other typical tasks, this will be more than enough to help support that.
The laptop itself is also pretty light, and good for travel.
While I'm not a fan of touchscreens, it's a nice additional option to have for those who prefer to utilize that feature.
One thing is that the storage itself is very low, so you wouldn't want to get this laptop for any major multimedia use. Storing music and photos will probably be fine, to a point, but videos and larger HD images will probably fill up the storage on this quite fast.
Overall, decent unit, nothing fancy, but seems reliable overall.

My sister recently got this laptop and I got her a little button usb memory stick to increase her storage. Be sure to plug it into the fast usb port (blue) on the laptop. Here is the item to consider - it has a great Black Friday deal right now:

Christmas Gift Too Early to Tell
By Colleen
So far seems like a good computer. I bought as Christmas present for my Mom, so time will tell. I set it up for her and only thing I’m struggling a little with is the Microsoft 11S version. I’m not clear if I still need separate virus protection or not, and in S mode I can’t download the free security suite offered by her internet provider because it’s not a Microsoft application. I’m hoping this will be good enough for her to check emails and do banking.
November 18, 2023
With the laptop in S mode, and running the included Windows Defender, Microsoft says the machine is well protected. My sister is in a similar situation - and I am advising her to let it be as it is for now.

A lot of features for the price
By smstz
This was a great deal when I bought it. Bought it for my mother who is elderly and enjoys watching videos on her phone. She very much enjoys the big 15 inch screen compared to her phone. Also, this laptop comes with a touchscreen which makes it very easy to use even for someone who never uses a computer. It is quick enough and has enough memory for her to store all her photos. Its not the lightest laptop, but that okay. Overall I would recommend this laptop for someone looking for everyday use like internet browsing, video streaming, etc.
Possibility for adding storage

One very easy and convenient way to add storage is to get a tiny button drive and plug it into one of the fast usb ports on the laptop. An example of such a drive can be found here:

Good Substitute for PC
By HyoJn
I bought this laptop a bit impulsively since I needed a new one for school with a camera and good enough battery. It definitely does the job, the only drawbacks being 720p camera, Windows 11 off the bat, no privacy shutter and bad speaker quality. For the speaker/sound- don't get me wrong it's not the worst, but definitely not the best, as the audio seems to come from the bottom of the laptop which makes the sounds become muffled in almost any position. Apart from these small quality of life issues it handles fine, seems sturdy, good battery, and has decent space. Additionally, I play videogames on this such as, Rainbow Six Siege, PayDay 2, Sims, etc. which run fairly fine besides the fan getting hot of course. I give it a 8/10 since it serves as a substitute for an actual desktop and don't think I'll be getting rid of it anytime soon.
Bottom firing speakers
November 23, 2023
The speakers for this laptop are bottom firing. These kind of speakers work best when the laptop sits on a hard surface, so the sound waves can bounce off that surface better and yield better and louder sound.

What is the length of the power cord? Any recommendations about placing the air fryer under the kitchen cabinets?

The power cord is 34 inches long. The air fryer needs to be fairly close to the power outlet.

Can you program a wattage limit? I can’t have an appliances exceed 1000 watts where I live

The wattage used increases with the set temperature, and also with the speed of the fan (which can't be set).

Does this item have a 3 prong plug? I need one as i will use it at work and need 3 prong to be compliant

It has a polarized two-prong plug, ie, one prong is larger than the other. It can be plugged in only one way. The outlet on the wall must permit the use of such a plug.

Logitech Desk Mat lets you find your glide and define your style, all while keeping your desk protected. Click some color into your workspace with your choice of aesthetics. The soft cloth mat delivers style and comfort. Pair it with Logitech POP Keys, POP Mouse, and more.
 

Would this mat be appropriate for setting my laptop on, on top of a mahogany desk? The features mention it holding a keyboard, mouse etc but I.d like to know if it would also be fine to set a laptop on it. Thank you!

I use it with my gaming laptop and gaming mouse. It works well. It would be fine on your mahogany desk.

Does the refurbished t7 work as good as a new t7?

I purchased two of these refurbished drives. After properly initializing and formatting one of them, it appears to work as well as a new drive. This was not true for the second drive - I struggled to get it to work, and then found that 7% of the sectors of the drive were bad. It now appears to be working, but I less confidence in it.

Does the external SSD come with a USB-C cable? I’m not sure if I have one.

It should come with two cables. One a usb c to c, and the second a usb c to a. Mine came in a little box "hidden" behind the drive. However, you need to test them with a drive known to be good. I found 3 of the 4 cables I received with two of these drives to be defective.

I just purchased this external ssd and tried to use it for the first time. It will not show up on my computer anywhere, except on the "eject" tray. Why can't my new laptop see or open it the file location?

I suspect that it needs to be initialized and then formatted - operations you can do from disk management. However, it could also be a bad cable. I had a similar experience with this refurbished drive.

Is the 8GB RAM memory expandable?

Yes it is. The 8GB of RAM it come with is soldered in, but there is an empty SO-DIMM slot where you can add additional RAM.
