Good evening Engineer and wonderful people on this thread.
Please my Lenovo ideapad laptop came with a 64gig solid state drive SSD, which is low.
Please I would love to know if I can use a HDD on this laptop because I heard SSD are more expensive.

Like how much can I get 250gb and 500gb SSD and also how much would it cost me to get 250gb and 500 HDD? Thanks.

I'll advise you to use your laptop like that.

The laptop uses an eMMc storage which is soldered to the motherboard, there is no space for any HDD or SSD connector.

The best option is to get a flash or SD card and save all your pic, videos etc

For now I'm off and on, I don't take Jobs cos I'm actually doing some things now.

If you want to learn how to fix laptop and phones you have to decide Which you want to specify on.

Chip level repair or just normal card level ( replacing of parts and software)

Note that a chip level engineer can also do the job of replacing and software too though won't be really good in software since that's not his major area.

Since I'm off and on,I'm sorry I can't recommend any for now.

Please house, my PC (HP 15) don't see any external devices connected to it. Be it flashdrive, phone, card reader etc.. All the USB ports are not working, though one of the USB port will charge my phone when attached but it won't bring any file all it does is charging.
Please what's the way out? Thanks in anticipation

I don't think so. i think it's from the speaker b'cos the sound transfers to a loud speaker or my earpiece when connected .I get the sound only when I play music or video both online or from the laptop. I don't hear it while doing other things.
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 10:28am On Apr 30, 2019
you might need a technician to help check your HDMI port or get a USB to HDMI device, since all other port works fine.

Hmmm. This is strong.

There is a chip on your laptop motherboard that is called PCH (peripheral control hub) , it performs a lot of functions and a section of it controls all this things you mentioned.

That section is faulty, reflowing the chip might bring it back to life,so I'll advise you to see a laptop technician.

Another option is to change the laptop motherboard (since most chip level engineer don't have the machine to replace the BGA chip)

Check if the port is faulty,if not then see a laptop technician .

Well,I'll advise you see a technician .

He will do the troubleshooting by inserting another HDD and test run with videos to see where the problem comes from.
