It has SATA drive and you can upgrade to any standard size, You might have a problem with the data cable.
It was an advanced laptop for the moment it was released in 2007 but obviously now it's rather old. Originally run with Windows Vista but I believe shouldn't have any problem with Windows 7. If you want to save yourself problems, don't upgrade it to windows 10!
I'm sure you can upgrade memory to 4 gb but don't have info if accepts more then 4 Gb
Read manual:

Testimonial: "Wow, quick reply, thanks!! Hah, thats cool, thankyou so much for your help, Mr D. was wondering how Windows 10 was going..you answered another question :) must admit prefer 7 over 8 too! Thanks for manual, only for some reason my laptop is not letting any of the pages load, I didn't realise that companies usally do service manuals too, handy to know :)It does seem like a well made laptop, so I think it will be worth trying to upgrade, the Zoostorm I have casing is so flimsy I think motherboard has got bent, so things playing up all over the place."

Quanta CB 30

I take it you have a dv9500, 9600, or 9700. Regardless they have the same motherboard. It looks like 250 GB 5400 rpm or it can have to of those drives installed.

Here check for yourself. Here is the manual:

    HP PAVILLION DV9500 everything works except the monitor??

    This question requires a techincal person to first, attach an external monitor to the laptop to see if there is video going to the external monitor? Then while the external monitor is hooked up he should run full diagnostics to see if the motherboard video adapter is fully functional? If it is? He has to open the laptop and trace to see if the plug from the motherboard to the monitor needs to be reseated. The worst case scenario is you will have to replace the motherboard.
