It may be a different version for another country. This one is intended for Europe. There are comments where people from India complain that they do not have the connector so it may be because of different countries or revisions of the motherboard.
hello i have a matebook d15 2020, the amd 3500u model with 8 gb ram. the place i bought it from already fitted the laptop with 1 tb hdd. do you think if i use this connector and install an ssd instead of the hdd, i'll get ssd speeds? edit: also, since they have installed an hdd already it means that my laptop does indeed have this slot like u mentioned the european models have.
Once they have the design (of the case) they probably don't change it so much. They did cheap out and probably excluded an additional chip that controls the extra SSD/HDD
hello I have the matebook d15 2023, with intel i5/intel iris e graphics with 16gb of ram do you think that I have that slot for ssd sata so that i could connect a sata ssd?
What part? ... If you have the sata connector on the motherboard I'm sure you can find an adapter to accommodate the SSD. If there's no connector on the motherboard then you can't add a new SSD/HDD.
@@kyooodaii6297 Hello, unfortunately I don't have the 2021 model on hand. But opening on the backside should be the same so if you open it you can see if you have the connector and the empty area for the hard drive, only then you should order the parts.
@@TechLab47 hello, one question when talking about that, are you referring to the black plastic area where the ssd cable goes? It's that my laptop doesn't have that black plastic, that area is empty
I have to mention that there are other regions for this model (2020) where it wouldn't work, so you won't know for sure until you open it and look at the motherboard. (sorry to reply so late)
Fingernails. But if you have a tools kit maybe you can find a plasticky one that looks like a guitar pick. If you don't have that, than anything from plastic, maybe even an old credit card.
Ciao, non abbiamo ancora il modello 2021. Cercheremo di ottenerlo nel prossimo futuro e faremo la stessa procedura. (Hello, We don't have the 2021 model yet. We will try to get it in the near future and do the same procedure.)
I'm not sure, not even all the d15 2020 models have the connector. So you can follow the steps to open the notebook and see if you have the connector and the space for the additional hard drive.
Hello! Is your SSD original? Does the d15 come from the factory with the Western Digital SSD? I ask you because I don't know if the technician who opened my computer changed the SSD, I have the same D15 but 512 GB and it is also a Western Digital. Thank you in advance, your video is excellent!!
Sure, just make sure it's the notebook model 2.5' and I think it has to be 7mm thick (so the thin type). You can probably imagine it's going to be a bit slower than an SSD.
Why is my laptop doesn't have the part where I should put the connection for the cable for the hdd

Mine doesn’t have this connector
Can you addmore ram?
No, the existing ram is soldered to the motherboard so there's no upgrading. And there is no additional slot.
Why my mate book d15 don't have slot like that?😢

If you have the connector yes, please check before buying the SSD.
You can install an ssd and you'll get better speeds and latencies.
Is there any way I can add SATA SSD?
I don't know why they added a slot for an ssd even though it doesn't have a sata port for the sata cable😢

Can I replace the huawei matebook b3-520 RAM with a bigger RAM please someone answer me
nope...you can see the motherboard clearly
No, the existing ram is soldered to the motherboard and there's no additional slot.
hello
I have the matebook d15 2023, with intel i5/intel iris e graphics with 16gb of ram do you think that I have that slot for ssd sata so that i could connect a sata ssd?
is there any way to add ssd sata to matebook d15 ?? (2022 model)
i don’t have that part
What part? ... If you have the sata connector on the motherboard I'm sure you can find an adapter to accommodate the SSD. If there's no connector on the motherboard then you can't add a new SSD/HDD.
Mine also is 2022 model. There is a case for SSD but the connector in the motherboard is no present
Thank you for posting this video. Do you know the link of caddy for Honor Magicbook Pro 16.1
Unfortunately no and I can't find it on amazon.
@@TechLab47 Thank you for your reply
I can't open the back cover because the screws become stripped. :(
Maybe you can use an elastic band to unscrew. Google "stripped screws elastic band"
Can you tell me what size Torx screwdriver I need, Thanks.
I think it was a T5 (or maybe T6, will check in a few days)
Data connector not soldered on my D15. It's just left empty on PCB 😖
That's unfortunate. :(
@@TechLab47 Hello. Can I still install a new HDD on my Huawei d15(i3) 2021 if I have the same issue?

My pc must have been assembled in a hurry. The connector for the second drive is empty. Shame, was looking to having second ssd
Other people have complained about the missing connector :( Maybe it is different for the EU region where we got the notebook from.
@@TechLab47 hello, one question when talking about that, are you referring to the black plastic area where the ssd cable goes? It's that my laptop doesn't have that black plastic, that area is empty
@@TechLab47can you use something like electrical tape or solder the connector directly?
@@Loophole1999 FFC connector 10pin must try to soldered it then put the added HDD
SATA Cable is Add on or buy itself?
You have to buy it yourself. I found it on amazon. The link for it is in the description.
It work for Huawei Matebook D16 2021 ?
I have to mention that there are other regions for this model (2020) where it wouldn't work, so you won't know for sure until you open it and look at the motherboard. (sorry to reply so late)
How did you pry the bottom part
Fingernails. But if you have a tools kit maybe you can find a plasticky one that looks like a guitar pick. If you don't have that, than anything from plastic, maybe even an old credit card.

Is this data connector can be used in my honor magicbook 15 Ryan 5 3500u model the soccket is looking same??? Please reply
l have same thing and how to find is connector
Ciao, funziona anche con d14? Grazie
I'm not sure, not even all the d15 2020 models have the connector. So you can follow the steps to open the notebook and see if you have the connector and the space for the additional hard drive.
can i ask if can d15 core i3 support an gen4 nvme ?
I think that gen3 is the last supported.
Where do you buy the coonector? What do you call that?
Usually Amazon, it's called "Zahara 2.5" HDD/SSD Hard Drive Slot and cable"
Diversi i3 ko ga ada Conector untuk colokin Kabel Satanya ya bos?
same issue boss

U got cheated bro..
Hi! What is the exact name of the converter cable for the ssd?
HDD Cable For HUAWEI Matebook D15 2020 Laptop SATA Hard Drive HDD Connector Flex Cable
Is this an additional hard drive?
Yes it is. 👍
Yes, this is an additional hard drive.
What type of screws are those? I don’t recognize them
They have a star pattern. I'm not exactly sure how that's called. Maybe Torx?
Can i put HDD instead
Sure, just make sure it's the notebook model 2.5' and I think it has to be 7mm thick (so the thin type). You can probably imagine it's going to be a bit slower than an SSD.
Can I upgrade M.2 256 to 1TB?
Yes.
tq bro
dear, do you think the additional sata ssd can reach out to 2tb storage? or only 1tb storage can support??
I see no reason why it shouldn't support 2TB. My old desktop from 2010 supported 3TB hard drives. So this one should be ok with 2TB.
@@TechLab47 thats great to hear from you😍thanks my dear
