HP ProDesk 600 G5 Repair — your questions answered
How much does it cost to replace the power supply in an HP ProDesk 600 G5?
A genuine-spec 250 W replacement fitted and tested usually lands between $145 and $195 including labour. We bench-test the rails before returning the unit.
Can you recover data from a clicking hard drive in my ProDesk 600 G5?
Yes. We clone the failing drive to a new SSD using a hardware duplicator, verify every sector, and install a fresh Windows image so you keep your files.
Is it worth upgrading an HP ProDesk 600 G5 to Windows 11?
The 8th-gen Intel CPUs in these units meet the TPM 2.0 requirement. Adding an SSD and 16 GB RAM lets most offices run Windows 11 comfortably for another three to four years.
Why does my ProDesk 600 G5 keep losing the date and time?
The CR2032 CMOS battery is flat. Replacement takes five minutes and also gives us the chance to flash the latest HP BIOS while we are inside the case.
Do you repair HP ProDesk 600 G5 units onsite in regional areas?
Our technicians travel to most capital-city metro areas and larger regional centres. Remote diagnostics are available everywhere else if travel is not practical.
