Does the Hewlett-Packard 1000 Take an NVMe SSD?
Hewlett-Packard 1000
Every one of 50 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.
That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.
Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Intel Corporation 7 Series Chipset Family 6-port SATA Controller [AHCI mode]
- Platform:
- Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM Controller
- Drives seen:
- TOSHIBA MQ01ABF0, ST500LM012 HN-M5, HGST HTS545050A7
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 500 GB (78%)
- 1 TB (11%)
- 750 GB (6%)
- 160 GB (6%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
How we know
This answer is derived from 50 independent hardware reports for the Hewlett-Packard 1000, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
