A hard drive SATA 3.0 GB will work on my HP Pavilion dv9500 Notebook?

My C: drive is dead. Fortunately, it was a 500 GB replacement drive, and I kept the old 160 GB disk that came with the unit. I reinstalled the old drive C: and after some hassles (and 55 Microsoft Updates) it works OK, although slowly.

NewEgg offers a 750 GB drive at 7200 RPM for $109.95 (free delivery). Should be bigger and faster, but it's a SATA 3.0 GB. Now peri drive is a Seagate Momentus 7200.4 500 GB SATA and it worked fine until it didn't. But I don't know if "3.0 GB" is a speed, a boast or maybe a new spec that does not work on my HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook for 3 years.

Any information will be appreciated!

Hello

Do not expect a bump of a SATA 3.0 hard drive speed. Disk transfer rates will be limited by the current SATA interface speed in the DV9500. Linear track density (bits per channel) is another factor with a flow of transfer rate.  I used a SATA 3 SSD in my DV9700t and he has added a significant performance improvement.

Bottom line: a SATA II drive can perform as well in your laptop.  If you want more speed, then install a device of solid state (SSD).

You could try a HDD diagnosis to ensure that you do encounter hardware problems.

    Hello!

    Can you indicate the information where it says that the information is stored in our servers? If that mentioned anywhere we need to clarify.

    The only reference I found is here: How can I set up Sync on my computer? and it is specifically stated that the information is synchronized on devices through our servers. If it is misleading, let me know so that we can reword it.

    Regarding the storage of the key in your pen drive or any other backup system: this is the best solution and it will work correctly after you format your computer. The key does not change when you format your computer, so you will have no problems after all.

    Hello

    You confuse the version of Windows with the hard drive.

    A hard drive is a physical device for Windows (operating system)
    are the programs installed. When the data is created and saved which are written in the
    hard drive. A hard disk is analogous to a wardrobe as a storage device.

    Hard drives are not little dependent, which means that you can run Windows 32 or 64 on them
    If the rest of the system is compatible with every version.

    Windows can be 32-bit or 64-bit. But not all hardware systems can run both.
    Many 32-bit systems cannot run 64-bit Windows.

    Your computer came with at least a possible hard disk to add possibly
    internally, and certainly outside.

    WiKi - hard disk drive
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive

    As TrekDozer said that your computer cannot run as 64-bit Windows if you need to stay
    with 32-bit Windows. However, you can add additional hard disks of extra disk space.

    Check with HP support, their books online and the drivers, diagnosis, and
    their forum are good sources of information from others with the same or similar
    systems.

  • If you use SSD what size minimum, you can use I'll just install the softwar winds 7 operation and put all the other programs on a hard drive Sata is the way it should be done?

    I'm building a new PC, I have the motherboard and it has a location for an SSD, this who has the ability of minium are? and if this store just drive the sofware opererating only, as I intend to have all my programs and data on a SATA hard drive is the way to corect to go? Could someone ' a please advise please.

    The minimum I recommend is 80 GB, if you can go for 128 GB to 160 GB, I would go for it.

    Windows 7 uses 10 GB of disk space, and you have to take into account future, Service Packs and updates.

    You must also consider your page file size that will depend on the amount of RAM you have installed.

    Other disk space requirements include your programs and hardware drivers.

    The benefits of having an SSD is to accelerate the performance of the operating system and applications. In order to have a just installed SSD for upgrading the operating system on a mechanical HDD as well as your programs wouldn't make sense. Store content or data that you create on the HARD disk.

  • Can Equium L40 - I change hard drive SATA to AHCI Mode?

    Hello

    Anyone know if it is possible to change the hard drive to SATA AHCI (or same IDE) mode in the BIOS?

    I see the hard drive in the BIOS but I can't select to make changes as long as it is "gray".

    I installed the latest version of the BIOS, but that made no difference.
    Thank you very much.

    I put t have this model of laptop, but usually the controller SATA in BIOS mode options are AHCI or compatibility.
    I presume that it is set to AHCI.

    Your laptop's SATA HDD so I put t understand why you want to change anything. Using the AHCI mode HARD drive can operate at full speed.

    All we hear is an opinion, not a fact.
    All we see is a point of view, not the truth.
    [Marcus Aurelius]

    I'd rather than PCIe PCI for this purpose.

    HP liked SIIG for a number of their SATA PCI slot cards.  SIIG has updaters for these maps on its web site, and the pilots understand place in Windows 8.  Here's what I recommend if you want to only two new SATA internal ports:

    http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product.aspx?SKU=3062195&mfg_part=SC-SAT212-S4&pagemode=CA

    There is also a card HP SIIG eSATA that HP has used, and I have also used that... it worked great.  It has two eSATA ports and no port SATA internal:

    http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product.aspx?cache=2012565552&culture=en-us&SKU=2850719

    In addition, you can connect a single SATA hard drive on an eSATA port (the reader would need external power supply) for formatting, etc.  For that you need a cable with eSATA on one end and a connector type SATA internal regular on others... it is so much easier than to open the box and play with the internal cables.  The best quality I've found for those who are Macgurus.com or Granitedigital.com.  Opt for a shorter (1 m) rather than a longer therefor version if you choose to do so, in order to reduce the risk of interference (which I have never seen this):

    Macgurus told them are indicated for the generation SATA I, II and III, and they are a little cheaper for a length of 1 m of the granite.  Both are excellent companies.

    Finally, there is a HP SIIG PCI with combined eSATA/SATA, with a player external eSATA and SATA port internal:

    http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product.aspx?SKU=2850718&mfg_part=SC-SA1012-S1&pagemode=CA

    I'd stick with HP SIIG solutions and probably buy directly from HP for this unless you can find the same for much less expensive on eBay.  The cards have had several revisions, and I think that if you get your HP, you would later.

  • Installing a hard drive SATA 2 with the first hard drive is an IDE hard drive

    I have an M50 - 8187 think Centre and I see on the motherboard and in the manual that there is a 1 SATA and SATA 2 connection. I tried to plug in a SATA 2 hard drive but when I connect it using a SATA data cable, there is nothing recognizable in the BIOS.

    I took a 30 GB IDE HDD and hung like a slave and the BIOS recognized immediately.

    My question is, if a SATA hard drive can be used on the M50 series think Center and if so, what do I do I do get recognized in the BIOS SATA 2 controller. I've updated the BIOS with the latest version, but it did not help. I don't see where in the BIOS to enable the SATA.

    Help about my problem is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • The old hard drive SATA SSD upgrade

    I don't want to hijack the thread, but I have another question which may be useful for other people doing the same type of recovery.

    I ordered the recovery CD for my laptop HP 2000 only today.

    To improve performance, I also think to replace the installed at factory 320 hard drive (HDD) with a 240GB solid state drive (SSD).

    QUESTION: Should the OS recovery CD/DVD drive must be the same size - 320? Of course, WIndows will adapt very well to a 240 GB drive. Is the recovery process re-create the recovery partition and part of the restoration process?

    Thanks for your time and advice.

    It is advisable not to go smaller on the replacement drive. SSD are pretty inexpensive for 500G at the moment. You don't want to go smaller. It doesn't have to be the same size, but it must always be greater anything smaller. Resumption of the factory will create AS since the configuration partition and recovery of factory if you use the factory recovery media.

  • Dv6 - 6153cl supports hard drives SATA III?

    I have a problem with my laptop and I think I've narrowed the problem down to the HARD drive. I want to replace and update, but I don't know what drives can I use.

    I would like to know if I can install a SATA III HARD disk in my computer laptop dv6 - 6153cl. From what I can tell, it currently has an installed SATA II HDD. Can I switch from SATA III or am I stuck with SATA II?

    Download the SATA-III. Even if the motherboard supports only SATA-II (not true in your case), you can use the SATA-III drives. SATA is fully backward compatible. But, yet again, your motherboard HM65 chipset that supports support SATA-III. A good rule of thumb is that if it has USB 3.0 is also SATA-III. Not 100% true but terribly close to true.

    Hi guys

    HP Presario C061-220SA my daughter is dead and of course, to be a university student, she has all of her work there and no backups!

    So, now I have the laptop and BIOS utilities, checking the material, it was stated the hard drive had to be replaced.

    I'm guessing it's a disc hard 2.5 "but I'm not sure if it is not an IDE or SATA - can anyone help?

    I need to get this fixed fast and replace the drive, maybe I'll be able to recover some of its data when I chase him and connected through a USB enclosure.

    See you soon
