How do I know if a HP laptop harddrive would work on other brands of laptop?
My HP Pavilion laptop recently bit it. I would like to use the harddrive from it and, if possible, install it on a used laptop. But I want to make sure that it is compatible with a particular kind or brand of laptop.
HP laptops use generic PATA or SATA hard drives.
They are not proprietary.
Please add details to your question with the model #'s of both laptops & we will give you a definitive answer.
