• Addition of DIY SSD for iMac end 2013 now out of warranty

  Data sheet:

  • iMac (21.5 inch, at the end of 2013)
  • 2.9 GHz i5
  • 8GBs of RAM
  • 1 TB HARD DRIVE

  He is now out of warranty, so I think about adding an internal SSD flash drive. However, I did no workshop manual and have never looked inside. However, before making such a change, I would like to know if it is possible, how it will be difficult and if one SSD 2.5 "can be added or a PCIe SSD if there is a slot on the motherboard.

  If you have useful information, I would greatly appreciate your passing along.

  The end of 2013 21.5 "has only one SATA connector on the system board so your only choice is to replace the hard drive, cannot add a second internal drive. You can find several guides repair for your computer here https://www.ifixit.com/Device/iMac_Intel_21.5%22_EMC_2638

  If you decide to open your iMac and replace the HD you can consider upgrading your ram 16 GB as yours is the last 21.5 "with ram slots even if they are not user extensible https://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1600DDR3S16P/

  See page 38. The best SSD buy is a Samsung 840 Evo like this:

  I'm having a hard time finding information about the model you posted. Are you sure you typed it correctly? If you had Windows 8 initially I can link you to an OEM restore disk image. You can also clone the existing overhead for the SSD drive, but you should get a pretty good SSD size to make. You can also use the HP revovery DVD made from the HP Recovery Manager or you can rstore from a backup of Windows System.

• Hard drive not detected after adding 2nd mSATA SSD for HP Envy 14 1002tx

  Hello

  I'm having a problem when adding an extra mSATA SSD for my HP Envy 1002tx model.

  The laptop comes with a 500 GB HARD drive and I see that there is a 2.5 "mSATA SSD slot under the HARD drive, so I bought the same type of SSD and installed it but when I turn on the laptop, it does not introduce yourself. I don't know why?

  I want to have an SSD for boot up the laptop and HARD drive to store animals.

  If anyone knows if there is any software I have to install in order for the laptop to recognize the SSD?

  OR

  Is - this material is defective?

  Thank you in advance!

  I'm really sorry, I could not find this before, but the slot under the hard drive is not compatible with the mSATA disks. It's for WWAN modules! Your laptop is not like 4 I thought, but Envy 14 equipped with the first generation of Intel processors. Envy 14-Sandy Bridge 2000 series could be BIOS modded to make the miniPCI-e interface works with the mSATA disks but Envy 14-1000 series is not possible to change.

  Edit: 2.5 "drive 256GB solid state drive is listed as compatible.

• Upgrade to SSD for HP ENVY 15 t-k000

  I'm looking to upgrade the standard hard drive Toshiba MQ01ABD100 with a Samsung 840 Evo 1 TB (1 TB 5400 rpm). When you watch videos to see how to replace, (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04330942 video shows that the hard drive is connected to the motherboard with a connector zif to adapter sata.) My question is can I unplug the old hard drive adapter and plug it into my ssd for sata 3 speed or I have to do something else being the standard disc sata hard 2. What choices do I have if I do something else?

  Hello

  SATA III is backward compatible with SATA II. I think that your machine uses SATA III. You can check yourself by using the following small program:

  (Check out, to the title of the disk controller, SATA III is 6 GB/s)

• Adding additional SSD for dell xps 15 with 256 GB SSD

  Hi, I just bought a dell xps 15 9550 with 6th gen i7, 8 GB of RAM, and 256 GB ssd. Is it possible to add an additional SSD for the location of hard disk 2.5 inches remaining. If possible do I need to buy the cable for SSD too or is that what cable already included here?

  Thanks in advance,

  There is a support and a set of rubber bumper needed to connect a disk 2.5 "hard.  In general, these are not delivered with the system unless it is controlled with a hard drive - you must remove the base of the cover to check if - some reports are that some versions can be delivered with the necessary equipment.  If not, they are likely available from spare parts from Dell and from other sources such as EBay and third Dell parts suppliers such as share - People.com.

• Organize my SSD for first installation / After Effects, your opinions between Mushkin / Samsung PRO 850... ?

  Thank you for taking the time,

  I have i7-5960 x arrives in the mail, it is a huge upgrade for me to sage of the CPU, and I intend to install it on the motherboard ASRock Extreme 4 x 99.

  I have installed ram 64 GB with mono-GPU (Evga overclocked 980Ti) - I also ordered a bolt of lightning ASRock extension adapter to install in one of the PPI.

  with internal Samsung PRO pci 512 m2 will be installed (and hopefully also works!) for my OS/PROGRAMS;

  Now in the light of the information (please do not hesitate to give a few tips if you think that something's going South) above

  I have the options of 3 disks Samsung Pro 850 SSD (1 to) each

  and also Mushkin reactor 1 TB drives coming from another system.

  Now because m2 is expected to be only to win 10/programs installation, I thought I had 3 separate SSD for media (media that I capture) - Render (output) and the Disk Cache

  now I know PRO Samsung SSD are preferred for editing configurations 4 k video, but I also want to save money to change my monitor in the near future, so I want to return

  some of the Samsung SSD if possible.

  I want to ask if I wanted on Raid 0 to increase the speed of 1.5 x times. should I do for media drive, or make it output drive or Cache?

  what player in terms of managing files in Adobe Premiere and AE would benefit more and be more safe if a failure at the top of my head, I think there should be files that I can lose a days work if hds Raid goes down?

  I thought I can keep records of 1 TB of reactor of 2xMushkin in RAID 0 for this player that you would suggest.

  and perhaps just one Samsung drives for others. I'd really love to hear your comments; Even now, I'm sitting on a certain readers, but I want to save money in the long run since Sammy readers are quite expensive.

  Thanks to you ALL

  page Tweakers is a starting point for the advice, but its general advice that may not match your specific needs. some of the information there was written for 7200 rpm disks.

  hackers page says that its important to separate the OS/applications of the media player, so that the windows of standard tasks done constantly in the background is not interrupt reads/writes on the media player when editing. He goes on to say that disk operating system/applications doesn't have to be anything other than an ssd sata. the samsung 950 pro m2 will be only windows boot a bit faster and a little faster, has nothing else once they are open and running of programs.

  scratch disk has several settings for the captured media and rendering of previews. Some people use none and so their installation program does not need a disk separate cache / scratch for first, and they can leave their cache on the disk for the OS/applications. for AE, it will depend on if you have the disk cache. If you are interested in a cache drive, which could be shared with first rendered preview and scratch your files.

  'media' on the page of tinkerers and forums here, almost always refers to camera video files, not video files captured through a map of IO with the first or any other software. If you capture images with a map of IO, there can you want to have a dedicated ssd to it, to make sure that nothing interferes with the disk writes.

  the media cache database files are as creating files for indexing creates to help speed up the playback of files while working with them first. media cache is not the same as zero/capture/preview makes. Bill (forum member) did a lot of tests with disk configurations and also tested leaving media on a sata ssd cache used as disk operating system/applications. He concluded that it makes no difference to performance. so no, there is no need to worry about raid for the first cache files. If you want to use the samsung 950 pro for OS/apps, you can also leave your cache about it. You can even have enough space to use the 950 pro for the cache drive AE and rendered preview files creation too.

  all this is based on the media and what will be done in the timeline, such as screenshots, multi-cam, or preview files. the samsung 950 pro is fast enough to do anything, as long as it fits on the disc. the CT 1 950 pro releasing will see even more people with a configuration to a single disk for everything. other people will be fine with only two ssd sata, one for the OS/apps/cache and other media projects. Some will have more ssd sata or ssd pcie for increasing the speed or the ability to adapt to their specific needs.

• Hello everyone. I recently installed a Samsung SSD (hard solid state drive) in my destop PC. For some reason any Lightroom do not see? So I can't ingest pictures of her, or copy photos from a card itself. It is not listed as a player option. See LR

  Hello everyone. I recently installed a Samsung SSD (hard solid state drive) in my destop PC. For some reason any Lightroom do not see? So I can't ingest pictures of her, or copy photos from a card itself. It is not listed as a player option. LR sees any other drive. My computer he sees very well, so I was able to create a catalog it. IM using windows 8.1. Any ideas? I would also add that this drive has become corrupted and was repaired by Samsung. Maybe they did do a very good job......

  Did receive the disk with the letter of A: or B: drive? See below, which deals with the question:

• another disk internal ssd for my computer

  Hello, I have a feel LIKE Phoenix 810qe 230qe Desktop PC, I would get another drive internal ssd for my computer and the clone with usb plug so I can't open up my case, I'll use a Vantec CB-ISATAU2 SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 supports 3.5-inch, 2.5-inch adapter, I like to know what kind of disk internal ssd I should use I see a lot of hybirds, but what is the difference? I want to get something close to what I have now which is 128 GB SSD drive.where or what would be the best...

  You say that you do not want to open the case.  Is it fair to clone the disk or you are not going to install it in the computer?

  I have a HP 810-135qe Phoenix.  I installed a Samsung 840 EVO 500 GB SSD2.5 ".  It works absolutely great.  I cloned my HHD using the software of the Data Migration tool provided by Samsung.  In addition, the Software Wizard to adjust the performance of the SSD.  There is a section to download at the bottom of the page in the link I have provided.  It is one of the SSDS a few who has a good reputation for installation without changing the BIOS.

• Compatibility SSD for HP touchsmart all-in-one PC?

  Hey all, my parents have a HP Envy 23 Touchsmart all-in-one PC. The model number is 23-d117a.

  He has a mechanical hard drive 2 TB in it, and I want to replace it with an SSD for Christmas. I have no qualms with opening on the back of the PC and on the hard drive Bay to do the physical installation, and I can understand how to clone the content of the hard drive on the whole quite easily.

  I just want to know if there will be problems with compatibility. I guess most of the time a hard drive is a hard drive and that it will work as long as it uses the correct file format, but I don't know if HP has put any kind of limits on the machine that prevents him from working.

  In addition, it is less important, but if anyone can recommend a good support to the smaller SSD fit into the 3.5 HARD drive enclosure and again the line upward with the connectors, I'd appreciate it.

  Thanks for your time.

  Hello @Solidiquis,

  I understand that your question is if there are restrictions on the use of a DSS on your parents HP ENVY 23 - d117a TouchSmart all-in-One desktop PC. As much as I know there is no restriction on the use of a Solid State Drive on this computer. In fact, I found this document for computer explaining the differences. FAQ of propulsion hybrid Seagate Solid State. As for the recommendation on the necessary adapter unfortunately I can not make a specific recommendation, but I believe that everything will work. Here is an example of what you are looking for StarTech.com 2.5 "to 3.5" SATA aluminum box drive hard adapter with SSD/HDD up to 12.5 mm height.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  Now I need to install Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB 2.5-inch SATA III internal SSD for my machine & I need your advice that follows;

  1. do I need to buy 2.5 "to 3.5" internal hard drive mounting Kit for this?

  3. do I need to buy additional cables or not?

  4. What is the correct method to install Windows 8.1 this SSD?

  Since I'm not a guy elected, your opinions of education / advise are much appreciated.

  If the Dell backup and restore media recovery is used it will be identical to the factory with all the drivers preinstalled system installation.

  There may be updates to the driver, but everything should work on the box.

• SAMSUNG SSD thin uSATA 128 GB M firmware update

  Hello

  I have thin Samsung SSD 128 GB MLC, MMCQE28GTMUP-MVAD1, version of the software package VAM05D1Q uSATA. Could you please tell me where I can find the latest firmware for this drive? I searched the Samsung site without success. The drive came with a Latitude XT2. The Dell support pages contain some firmwares but for different models, it seems, despite the fact that I entered my service tag when you look up a downloadable software. I absolutely couldn't find relevant information on this particular model online.

  Thank you very much!

  Unfortunately, it's not like there are additional or more recent updates.   Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

• Windows 8 Pro x 64 boot Samsung SSD

  Hi all

  I tried to figure this out for the last couple days. I'm at work now, but I'll try again when I get home. Here is my question-
  I recently built my own computer. My pieces are-
  Motherboard ASRock Z77 Extreme 3
  Intel i5 3570 k
  SAMSUNG SSD 120 GB (I think that 840 series)
  Western Digital 1 TB hard drive
  Graphics EVGA Geforce GTX 660
  8 GB RAM (I don't remember the brand of the stick on the top of my head)
  I tried to do a clean install of Windows 8 Pro x 64 bit for the SSD. In the Setup screen, it detects two drives and I select the SSD drive and install it on the SSD. He moved very well I can say because no error message appears. But when the computer restarts and boots to the top, rises the symbol of Windows 8, the loading wheel little rises and they are there for about 2 seconds and then they disappear and the screen stays black with no mouse cursor or anything. Just a black screen and there just like that. I end up having to reboot the machine. I've done everything I can think of - I went into the BIOS and made sure the boot sequence is correct. I tried starting the SSD after restarting the machine with no result. The only difference is that when I did this and also removed the x 64 installation disc, Windows 8 comes and says that he was not able to load because it lacks a partition and so I try to troubleshoot it by performing an auto repair and diagnose the problem. When I do this, Windows says it can't auto repair. I did a reset and wiped clean car and tried again, but without any result. I get the screen that shows a partition is missing (and this happens only when I boot from the SSD with the x 64 disk drive) or I get a black screen.
  Another thing I tried last night was to reformat the SSD and wipe them off, clean, disconnect the hard drive regularly so that the only smart thing was the SSD and then reinstall windows and try again, but again, nothing has changed; just black screen.
  As far as I know, all my pieces are compatible with Windows 8 Pro. I'm at work at the moment, but as soon as I go home, I go back to work on that and I hope that you guys can give me some new approaches to this problem.
  Thank you all

  Hello

  It would be better to install Win 8 to the SSD with the other hard drive unplugged...

  Win 7 and 8 hide additional start install files on extra drives\partitions to the course. If you install with the attached HARD disk and then remove it later, windows does not start...

  Generally, this can be corrected with a startup repair, but I would rather avoid it in the first place...

  Format your SSD BEFORE installing Win 8. I prefer to use a 3rd party for this program...

  You could get by reformat everything by doing a 'Clean' installation without future issues...

  For what is the real cause of your problem, I suspect that you may need to set the SATA mode in Bios to AHCI... I got an OCZ Vertex, which would install OK and start OK after... After that win 8 detected all new material, I would get is a black screen.

  Also, make sure that the SATA connector you are using is not configured for Raid...

  In addition, try to remove the graphics card and install Win 8 with the HD4000 Intel. Once everything works, then add the NVidia.

  I built a similar machine with a surfboard Z77 Extreme 4, and it is on this forum that I had the problem of the AHCI pop up.
