    Hello,

    I have seen other posts which show some people successfully installing an SSD on HP dv9000/9010ca line of notebooks.

    Despite updating the BIOS to F43, I have not yet been successful using a SATA III SSD drive.

    Does anyone know if attempting to install a SATA II SSD would be any different?

    The BIOS for the laptop does not offer the ability to choose any kind of mode.
