    Hello I have an Hp envy 14 beats edition. Can some one tell me if its possible to install 2 hard drives on to my machine and HOW to do it?

    I am talking a combo of 80gb ssd + 750gb HDD

    Like that. If possible can someone tell me the process?

    Any information would be helpful.


    Thank you.

    No your system doesn't have two drive bays. Only one Drive can be installed at a time. If you don't use your CD drive then you can remove it and buy this Hard Drive Caddy below and install the SSD you want. I've never done this but I'm pretty sure this is the only way you're gonna get two drives in your laptop...
