Can you stick this into a laptop? I have a windows 7 powered HP

No, you can not. This is a big size card for desktops. It was not designed for laptops

I don't see why it would not work. We have an HP laptop, running Win 7 and this USB adapter worked great. I also use a USB video adapter on my desktop computer where I have 3 monitors. With these USB adapters, you can add several to your computer if you'd like.

If it has a USB connection there should be no issue. I have a 500 GB connected and have no issues. I ordered my HP split in June and have been happy with it so far.

I've only used it with an HP & a Dell... I'd try contacting the seller for that info

I use it with an HP laptop. The hardware has very little to do with it. I have used it with Windows XP, 7, 8 and 8.1 with no issues at all.

Not likely. It has to go in a pci-e slot. Most laptops don't have standard pci-e slots or accessible/changeable pci-e slots to begin with

Shouldn't have a problem with any DV7. As your primary, you would probably have to reinstall windows 7 from your system back up disk. You did make a set didn't you. HP no longer supports DV7 series.

It is supposed to work but it didn't work for me. I had windows 7 and an HP 720C.

This drive should work fine in your laptop, make sure you have a good set of recovery disc's or if installing a new version of Windows all of the drivers for your laptop. You can find the correct drivers for your machine at HPs website. Edit: It looks like that laptop has two drive bays if you are adding extra storage you shouldn't need recovery disks or drivers.

Yes you should be able to plug it into your laptop. Just make sure you have the software on the laptop.

Mine came loaded with Windows 8 Pro, which is downgradable to Windows 7 Pro. You will need to find someone who know what they're doing with computers, or call HP and request Windows 7 restore media. The laptop is a very good machine though.

No, this Hdd will not fit into a laptop computer. I used this Hdd for a desktop build, for a friend.

I would doubt what you have stated. This should work on any laptop/PC with a USB2.0 slot. It doesnt matter if it is HP or any other brand as long as USB2.0 option is provided ( I did try on a old HP Desktop and it worked fine). It might struggle if it is connected via a USB hub. So direct connectivity is recommended. Even if there is a power source issue with certain computers, then you can go for a twin-head USB cable (sold separately) for drawing power from two USB slots in the computer. Hope this helps.

This HD will not fit in a laptop. it is too large physically and the plugs are wrong. It is designed for a desktop and will not work in older desktops which use the wide data cables. It is a SATA drive not an IDE drive. I replaced a HD in a Win 7 desktop and it worked great.

You will need to make sure that you use drives for a desktop computer not a laptop. However, if you wanted to use a laptop hardrive you can buy adapters for those to allow them to fit into the computer, assuming that the your motherboard and power supply both accommodate the connections to your laptop hard drive.

Probably not. Wouldn't work on HP7, but I used it on Windows VISTA. Very good program
