== BIOS ==
 +
 +
Some older versions of the BIOS don't play nice with GRUB2 (which Debian/LinuxCNC use). The BIOS must be upgraded, which can actually be done from within Linux. Here is the overall procedure:
 +
 +
* use an rEFInd pen drive to boot into Linux (despite it's GRUB2 not being fully installed)
 +
* download the BIOS utilities .exe (sp58029.exe)
 +
* extract the contents of the .exe using Engrampa or a similar archive utility
 +
* inside the "HP Utilities for Linux" directory extract both "hp-flash-1.00-1_x86_64.tar.gz" and "hpuefi-mod-1.0.3.tar.gz". The resulting directories need to have paths that do not contain spaces, so if extracting them into the same folder as the archives, you must rename "HP Utilities for Linux" to "linux_util" or something containing no spaces.
 +
* in the "hpuefi-mod-1.0.3" directory run <code>make</code> to compile the kernel module
 +
* run <code>sudo insmod ./hpuefi.ko</code> to load the built kernel module
 +
* run <code>./mkdevhpuefi</code> to create the <code>/dev/hpuefi</code> device
 +
* extract "J01_0228.BIN" from the "sp71294.exe" self-extracting archive into the "hp-flash-1.00-1_x86_64" directory
 +
* in the "hp-flash-1.00-1_x86_64" directory run <code>sudo ./hp-flash J01_0228.BIN</code>
 +
* after it has finished flashing, reboot!
 +
* after using rEFInd once again to get into Linux, fix GRUB using the instructions at [https://wiki.debian.org/GrubEFIReinstall GrubEFIReinstall - Debian Wiki]

 +
=== SSD ===
 +
 +
The computer supports a standard 2.5" hard drive, as well as an mSATA drive. TODO: find out the physical size of the mSATA drive.
 +
 +
The following inexpensive SSD works well:
 +
 +
[[File:Kingston_SA400S37_120G_Stock_Photo.jpg|64x64px]] [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6JQS8C/ $19.99 -- Kingston 120GB A400 SSD 2.5" SATA 7MM 2.5-Inch SA400S37/120G]
 +
 +

 +
 +
The maximum RAM specifications:
 +
 +
* 8GB of RAM max (2x4GB)
 +
* industry-standard 204-pin
 +
* unbuffered non-ECC PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 MHz-compliant
 +
* 1.5 volt DDR3-SDRAM SODIMMs (not 1.35V)
 +
* CAS latency 11 DDR3 1600 MHz (11-11-11 timing)
 +
* 512-Mbit, 1-Gbit, and 2-Gbit non-ECC memory technologies
 +
* SODIMMs constructed with x8 and x16 devices; SODIMMs constructed with x4 SDRAM are not supported

It will also need the antenna assembly which seems to official be HP part number "646811-001", but maybe also "698604-001" or even "646811-001", "621904-001", or "640247-001".
