14-b017cl Sleekbook: the 120 GB msata ssd make bootable

Hi guys, I need your expertise!

I installed a m500 crucial SSD 120 GB in my slot msata for use as drive system (NOT in the disk cache!).

Before, I turned off acceleration of hard drive Intel Rapid Storage menu. I can see the SSD in the Explorer as a disk separate and clone my disk with Paragon partition migrate OS 4.0 SSD. However, in the BIOS (F.12) and in the startup options, the drive is not displayed. If I boot without the HARD drive no boot disk is found.

Is this a BIOS problem / a BIOS update can resolve it? If so, since there is only an update of Win8, an update with Win7 would be possible somehow?

I know that sleekbook material supports bootable SSD: I upgraded successfully a Sleekbook 14-b083eg to a 120 GB system msataSSD disk. (see CAT ID:48997789; Service Ticket number: 8066059670)
Thanks a lot for your help!

It is specific to all HP laptops with the WSSD mSATA other than a couple of small business model for portable computers that use only hard drives WSSD. If you got the b083eg to boot from the WSSD with a disc present regular SATA just do whatever you did there once again and please post here because many people want to know how to do this.

  • Satellite A210-248 does not recognize the 840 ECO mSATA SSD

    I want to build in my Satellite A210-248 on the port of msata ssd.

    When I build in the ssd bios dind't find the ssd, so I can't install windows in the ssd

    Hello

    Satellite A210 does not support port mSATA and therefore the mSATA SSD module cannot be used.
    Probably, you have found a mini-PCI on the motherboard slot. It certainly looks like mSATA but its not the same thing.

  • How to install Windows from the recovery in mSATA SSD partition?

    Hi all

    I intend to install mSATA SSD on my ThinkPad E420 soon. My laptop comes with the recovery partition in the hard drive. How to install Windows on the SSD drive?

    I am familiar with the WIndows installation of optical media, but never to the recovery partition (which I assume where is the installer of Windows).

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Haris

    Hello

    Sorry, I have no idea on how to install directly from a separate to another drive, but you may want to check this . You will need 1 CD (start) and a 4.7 GB DVD (data) because Lenovo recovery adds all this bloatware in factory settings.

    That said, if you want a clean install, use the Windows disk (in case you do not have the same edition, you can download it legally from the net, google it) and your OEM key for activation.

  • as additional storage mSATA SSD

    Hi all

    I have a touchsmart Envy 15-j003ed E4A07EA #ABH with a 4700mq I7, HP mainboard 1963.

    The laptop came with a rather slow disk 5400 RPM. I changed this to a Kingston Hyper X 120 GB SSD sata 3. Which works very well. However, I would like to have some more space on board. Also only 4 GB of ram is installed I would spend it.  Related to it have 3 questions:

    (1) can I put a 120 GB or more in the slot msata SSD and use it as an extra hard drive? Not as a cache or almost...

    (2) or that it will be fast to do the startup disk msata ssd and use my current SSD storage?

    3) associated with the RAM, the specs give 1600 mhz speed, but the site of Kingston gives 1866 mhz as on option for the replacement, I use 1866 mhz?

    Thank you very much in advance for your answer!

    Yes, you can install a card from the WSSD in the slot mSATA for additional storage, but if you think that you can pick up just a larger SSD standard for less money extra. mSSDs have not yet appreciated the fall of wholesale prices we are seeing on 2.5-inch SSD. The WSSD cannot be a boot disc if you also have a standard 2.5-inch drive in the machine, which would be faster is a bit questionable. If possible, a WSSD would be a bit faster, but both are fast, it isn't a big deal.

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See page 44 for instructions of the WSSD.

    The memory just be sure you get 1.35 volts or DDR3L memory. The manual says that it runs at 1600 mhz, so if you install the variety of 1866 he will just downclock.

  • V470 mSata SSD support

    I guess that the V470 supports mSata SSD for two reasons: the lenovo support download section includes rapiddrive drivers for the V470; the bios has a special "SSD" labeled sata port that does not show my 2.5 "SSD (it appears as"HARD disk"in the bios). I also found a Chinese/Korean site that was selling the mSata SSD and included the V370, V470 and V570 with models that support mSata (such as the y470/y570). Of course, this question raises another: did the V470 support 6gbps sata iii? I know that the chipset CERTAINLY support, so I think they have this option disabled in the bios. Can anyone confirm this? I NEED an answer the mSATA thing abou... I tried to find an answer for weeks now. I would like to find out it takes support 6 GB/s on the port of mSATA, but I doubt that is the case. Thank you!

    Hi all

    I intend to buy an SSD mSATA disc to my desire, because I want to improve the response time at the opening of some programs, improve the General performance of the operating system and to access files faster to big (read and write).

    I searched several readers mSATA SSD in the Web and I chose a P830 Series128GB mSATA SSD Samsung miniPCI-E disk (SATA III 6 GB/s, read 500 MB/s, writing of 400 MB/s).

    But I'm asking about what might be the best option to use the SSD mSATA so suitable as a primary drive (operating system installation and leaving 1 TB of HARD drive for storage and applications) or use it as a cache to improve overall performance.

    I do not envy for IE play or video editing, but I work with VMWare Workstation, and most of the time I need to use about 2 or 3 VM at the same time (sometimes during the recovery of a virtual Suspension of machine it take a long time, the virtual disks sizes about 40 GB). Another use for my desire is to play movies/series HD / 3D 0 and mirrored them for my Smart TV (via Miracast)

    I read something on Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT) and I heard some benefits for use with SSDS as cache memory but I am still confused the best option.

    Any suggestions you may have? It might be useful for me!

    Kind regards

    Hello @cchoiz ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you have questions about the installation of your mSATA SSD.

    The mSATA slot is designed to only be used as a disk cache. You may experience problems starting in the mSATA SSD as drive. For this reason, I recommend to use it in its configuration provided; as a cache drive.

    The decision is entirely at you in the end. If you are able to configure the BIOS to use the mSATA as the main drive, this will help improve your system performance in addition to using it as a cache drive, especially if there is enough space to install your VMWare on the mSATA SSD after you have installed the operating system. Use it as a main drive will also increase the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I can only offer you my personal and no suggestions 'official response HP' in this regard. As previously mentioned, it is entirely up to you.

    Hopfully, this helps at least a little.

  • Portege R930 - upgrade the mSATA SSD succssfull

    Just briefly, I wanted to report an SSD upgrade.

    When I got my Portege R930 (PT331E, i7) two years ago, I changed the HD to a PRO 840 Samsung SSD 512 GB (big improvement). Now, this SSD is too small (photos!) and I wanted to increase the capacity up to 1 TB.

    But instead of a new SATA, I decided to go for an mSATA + adapter SATA I felt an mSATA unit would be more "evolutionary" - next update of the laptop for me would be a Portege Z, who use mSATA.

    So I bought a Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB with a Delock adapter/converter mSATA SSD, made a clone of the Apricorn cable and the software switched the SSD and everything works fine (actually a little faster )! At first I tried to use the clone with software from Samsungs migration but this didn t work, maybe I didn t the right version.

    -Now I have a lager SSD that will live longer than my R930. Please note that I'm not an expert with computers - just a happy user Toshiba! Thanks for a good forum with my good ideas!

  • Ultrabook Envy6-1100sl: install a 2nd OS on the msata SSD - Envy6-1100sl

    Hi, I upgraded my envy6 with 16 GB Crucial RAM and 500 GB samsung SSD evo. After upgrade, I did a clean install of windows 10 and stopped to use the itegrated msata ssd. My question is:
    Can I install a second operating system on the msata ssd? Can this bios read the second OS on the msata? Is there a procedure to follow?
    Thank you

    Thanks for suggesting it, but I've created a simple way... I just installed the second OS on the msata. At startup the sistem starts automatically on my main drive (500 GB win10), but if I press F9 when starting, I can see my linux on second drive (32 GB msata) and just choose to start when I need.
    Don't need to grub or similar just manual choice, and that's what I wanted!

  • HP ENVY 15 t-j100 (E2E34AV): msata SSD in the Envy laptop

    Hello

    I would like to install an msata SDD in my laptop, I know that I have an empty msata slot, but it is intended to be used for fastboot files (according to my manual). If I put my own 256 GB SSD there, it will be usable for startup?, or I can also store files user on it?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Dear customer,

    Welcome and thanks for posting your query on the Forum from the HP Support

    The mSATA port on the motherboard can be used as a cache drive to a hard drive with an operating system installed on it for him to give a performance boost.

    Cache drives are mainly used by people who cannot afford a large SSD to install their o/s and the most frequently used on programs.

    I'm sure that the port of mSATA is used strictly to cache of a HARD drive with an operating system installed on it and we cannot use mSATA as first SSD to store files on it

  • Can X 1 carbon (2015) use the EVO to 840 Samsung MZ-MTE1T0BW mSATA SSD internal flash drive 1 TB?

    I have a Toshiba Portege in which I installed a Samsung 840 EVO MZ-MTE1T0BW 1 TB mSATA SSD and it worked fine for months. It replaced a similar unbranded 128 GB SSD. On command, I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X 1 of carbon with a 128 GB SSD. Is there a reason I can't recreate the image on the 1 TB of the Toshiba drive and install it in the Lenovo?

    Congratulations for choosing a carbone3.

    The SSD into the computer is a m.2 2280 format the card. The SSD of MZ-MTE1T0BW, you have is mSATA format, so it will not slot, or if it will fit width/length-wise.

  • W540 mSATA SSD as data along SSD into the main slot drive

    Can I just install an mSATA SSD along my main SSD in W530 to use the old as data storage? He will see it not as a single cache? Thank you

    ExpressCache is something that must be put in place.

    By default the mSATA SSD is just storage.

    When you put it in, it is not formatted and does not appear in my computer, so you must go to disk management to format it in NTFS so it appears.

    I don't think that there is no limit on that. I think that whatever it is upwards to 500 GB will certainly work and probably same disks up to a 1 to. Samsung is a very popular brand with the Evo Series discs / Pro. I would go for one of them.
