14-inch HD business laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0-inch HD laptop built for office work and mobile professionals. It runs on an Intel Core i5-6200U dual-core processor with a 2.30 GHz base clock and 2.80 GHz turbo frequency. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles everyday visual tasks. The system ships with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit pre-installed.

Upgrade from mechanical drives

Replacing a traditional hard drive with the new 1TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD cuts boot and application load times dramatically. Moving from 4 GB to the installed 8 GB DDR3 removes the memory bottleneck common in light multitasking. The board supports up to 32 GB across two slots if workloads grow beyond the current capacity.

Simple drive and memory access

The 2.5-inch SATA SSD and both DDR3 SO-DIMM slots are reachable after removing the bottom cover, so storage and memory upgrades need only a small screwdriver. A frequent issue is forgetting to disable BitLocker before swapping the drive, which leaves the new SSD unreadable. Another is seating the memory modules incompletely, causing a no-post condition on first boot.

Questions about this item

What size and interface does the 2.5 drive bay accept for the 1TB SSD?

The bay fits a 2.5 inch SATA SSD, which is the drive already installed.

How do I add more RAM to the two DDR3 slots, and which clip do people forget to snap?

Open the bottom cover, insert the module at an angle, then press down until both side clips click — the outer clip is the one most often missed.

When will the original 8GB DDR3 memory need replacement if I upgrade to the 32 GB maximum?

The factory 8GB DDR3 can stay in place; you only replace it when you populate both slots with larger modules to reach the 32 GB limit.
