Question Broke this capacitor from a laptop motherboard.

So , this little thing came off when i was putting a new HDD in my hp pavilion 15-bc415nq laptop.
It was positioned right next to the usb ports . Is it safe if i go without it ?

Suggest that you update your post with an image that is not "Google".

No harm in posting two or three different views to ensure that the problem is visually understandable.

That said, if you physically broke a component off of the motherboard then you will need two things:

1) the correct replacement capacitor

2) Someone with excellent soldering skills to install the replacement capacitor.
