![]() #Hp 8740W Drivers Windows 10 keygen#![]() As can be seen well on the pictures, almost all ports on the left and right are located rather far front – in particular the USB hoard on the right. But we do have to judge the port distribution more severely. The mandatory jacks for headphone and microphone are on the front in the mouse pad's area, where the cardreader (2in1: SD/MMC) is also found.Īgain, the Elitebook doesn't have to be reproached in terms the given interface circumference. On the right edge, from back to front, there is the RJ45 LAN port, modem socket, the optical drive, and three more USB ports, two of which are "Superspeed Ports", so USB 3.0 and a USB/eSATA combination on the front corner. We also find a Kensington lock slot squeezed into the back corner by the air outlet here.Īlthough the read edge is unfettered because of the standard hinge solution, HP doesn't place any ports here and leaves almost the entire case width to the battery and an air outlet. A Firewire 1394a, USB 2.0, VGA, display port and adapter's socket follows. ![]() The alignment is started by a combination of smartcard reader and ExpressCard slot (incl. HP puts a lot of ports into the case despite its slimness. Upon that, the display springs open by a few millimeters and emits a few disagreeable noises due to its construction.Ī potential workstation needs one thing in particular: a comprehensive connectivity. ![]() This can be reversed by pushing the generously sized slider on the notebooks front. When the display is closed, both thorns are fed into the other side and lock. It's simply the metal's inelegant mushroom shape that protrudes out of the display. The ramshorn system even keeps the display very securely in a closed position. Here, we likely find one of the few, and admittedly controversial "critique points" of the case – the display latch hook. Over the massive looking hinges that have a sufficient hold on the heavy display in practically every position, we work our way to the display's upper edge, including the installed webcam. Upon looking closer, you see the brushed aluminum surfaces that bring the notebook back to the top level haptically. Dark surfaces everywhere, only interrupted by a few blue turquoise colored LED status indicators, mocks modesty in the office. The notebook lives up to its conceived application purpose in terms of looks. The base unit doesn't seem to mind though – no creaking, no obvious twisting. With a weight of 3820 grams, we can only pick the case up with a tight grip on the front edge with great effort. The display also shows itself very resistant in view of twisting, which is no surprise at a thickness of up to 12 millimeters. Both base unit, as well as display proves to be unimpressed by our pressure tests. Again, we practically search for reasons to complain without success. This takes us to the next rating criterion: case stability. We see narrow gaps, components that fit exactly – no matter where we press or pull, we are completely spared from quality disrupting creaking noises. In the 8740w's case, we have a hard time finding reasons for complaint in this regard. It's the workmanship that either convinces the user, or not. However, using expensive materials doesn't automatically endow quality. Metal surfaces for the display lid and base unit cover, robust, high-end plastic and a magnesium frame inside the case. The HP only uses the best for the Elitebook 8740w in terms of materials. We immediately start battering our brains about temperature management and cooling – but more about that later. The opened case has a height of just 25 millimeters on the front, measured from the table top, slightly increasing towards the back to just over 30 millimeters. Considering this, the nevertheless very slim base unit is almost amazing. In return, it also harbors extremely strong hardware. The 8740w grants itself a valuable desktop surface of 0.11 m2, with a width of almost 40 centimeters and a depth of about 28.5 centimeters. However, the current machine differs in its size. It is practically an identically constructed device as the previously reviewed HP 8540w. ![]()
