• I would like to add an ssd for my pavilion dv7

  Hey

  I own a pavilion dv7 4050eb, and I'm looking to add an ssd.

  It has 2 compartments to put a hard drive in my notebook, is currently being used, and the second is empty.

  So I thought that it would not be a problem.

  But when I went to my local computer specialty store (where I bought this laptop), they told me I will not work if the cable connection for a second hard drive and support was not provided with my laptop (which is you case) because they can't get those of HP, no matter how hard they try.

  Is there really no way that HP can provide these simple parts (cable and support)?
  And if I could get those, would there be any problems whith install an ssd in this specific book?

  Thanks in advance.

  You can find the part number for the hard disk hardware kit in the guide Service & maintenance dv7. You can order the part of sellers online or directly from HP online parts store.

• Pavilion dv7-6178us: SSD SATA dv7-6178us which is Compatible with my laptop?

  I have a Pavilion dv7-6178us laptop 'hand', and I would like to change the existing hard drive.  I understand that it came originally with a 750 GB SATA drive at 5400 RPM, but I inherited mine with only 100 GB SATA, OUCH!  I would like to upgrade my drive to a SSD for the best possible performance, and then add a larger disk for storage.  When you are looking for different drives, I came across SATA I, SATA II and SATA III and I can not figure out which is compatible with my computer or what he came originally with.

  Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us?

  What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance?

  What is the greatest player I can additionally ADD the SSD for storage?

  Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

  Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us? Specification the SATA is backward compatible. This means that disks SSD SATA type will work in your notebook. The SSD will be made only to the level of specification SATA your SATA controller is capable of. If the controiller is SATA150 so your SSD SATA600 installed work bandwidth SATA150.

  What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance? , You can install one with the largest capacity you can afford.  I would recommend not to install a larger than 512 GB. My own brand preferences are Intel, OCZ Technology, Samsung and SSD Crucial.  Purchase of the SSD in upgrade kit is the simplest solution. Upgrade kits come with a SATA to USB cable and cloning software making it a fairly simple process to upgrade the laptop. See the post-it that I wrote at the top of the section of portable equipment for some details on this. 

  What is the greatest player I can additionally ADD the SSD for storage? I recommend you not to install any disk hard legacy with a capacity greater than 1 terabyte. There is no guarantee that a superior who will work as expected.

  The following information is the maintenance guide & computer Support laptop dv7 to refers to the physical size of existing hard drives.

  6.35 cm (2.5 in) drives supports hard drives to 12.7 mm (. 50 inches), 9.5 mm (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in)

  NewEGG.com has some good reference on SSD upgrade kits and portable hard drives legacy price.

• HP ENVY m6-1232ea: can I add a ssd sata-m and can be larger than 32 GB for my HP ENVY m6-1232ea

  Can I add an ssd sata-m and can be larger than 32 GB for my HP ENVY m6-1232ea there a processor i5 - 3230M

  Thanks in advance...

  It can be larger than 32 GB, but it is not the boot drive and its only real function is as a cache of acceleration for the main mechanical hard drive, for which really impossible to use something bigger.

• S50 satellite - B - 15 p - it is possible to add addional SSD or HARD drive?

  Hello

  I recently bought a laptop Satellite S50 - B - 15 p.
  I'm very happy with it

  My question is about its SSD drive
  It is now 128 GB.

  It is possible to add addional SSD or HDD.

  Or replace the current by the new with a higher capacity.

  My best regards

  I don't have this model of laptop, but according to some pictures I found isn't Googling around this model of laptop SSD? HARD drive covers in the lower corner, therefore, as a general rule, these updates is not supported and should not be done by the owner of the laptop.
  If you want to have full access to the SSD, you must remove the lower cover and it can be done by authorized personnel only. If you try to do it yourself you will void the warranty.

  In my opinion, you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help or, at least, good advice what to do about it.

• Add the SSD for HP Pavilion desktop computer

  Hello

  I would like to add an SSD for my HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office). I do not want to replace the existing drive, I would add a second drive.

  I have already noticed a free sata connection and a free power cable, but I didn't notice a physical position for the support and the screws etc...

  Does anyone know if there is a manual that describes the physical position for a 2nd drive in HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office)?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  Look at the picture below and see if your model is configured for one SSD installation.

  

  I see that your particular model is native/sold to the Netherlands.  There is a forum member that frequents this forum who lives in the Netherlands. Hmmmm that's a good guy!

• Can I add an SSD to envy 15?

  Can I add an SSD to envy 15 or do I have to replace the original disk?

  Yes assuming that the SSD is large enough to hold all the data that was on the old disk, you can 'clone with resizing' from the old drive to the new. I use Acronis to make, and they offer a fully functional 30 day trial that would work to clone a drive. You will need an adapter usb to SATA to hang the new disk on the computer and access to the cloning procedure. On an SSD, but you are probably going to be cramped for space and you can just do the recovery with just the c: disc / > image drive and install the OS on the SSD using these discs and forget not to have a recovery on the SSD partition. If you do this, you should not buy an adapter usb to sata. You could also just clone the C:\ > will lead the SSD using acronis and keep the old drive to use for recovery if you need to do it later.

• Apple will add an SSD for my imac end 2012

  I have an imac end of 2012.  I want to add, and SSD drive to it to increase the speed of loading.  I use photoshop and then CC.  I really don't want to do it myself and can not find anywhere on the apple support site information they will or how long it would take.  Any thoughts?

  You need find an authorized service center Apple close to home first.

  Go to this page, click and fill in the information in the https://locate.apple.com/package.

  Apple stores won't work, but an authorized provider can.  Give one of your

  choice a call and see if they provide such a service.

  I strongly suggest an authorized service center, because they are familiar with Apple products

  Unlike a "generic" PC repair workshop

  Another alternative to internal installation, would be to get a USB3 or SSD Thunderbolt

  or housing USB3 or Thunderbolt and install your own SSD.  Although the external hard drive

  may not be as fast compared with installed internally, it will still be a major improvement

  on a standard HARD drive.  Install the operating system and your files on it and use on the inside as a backup.

• Can I add an SSD to a P500?

  I just bought a P500 and have a chance to get a 120 GB SSD at a good price (Kingston HyperX 3 K). Is there a replacement part I can implement? I don't want to replace the HARD drive, necessarily, I would add the ssd. I put the OS and applications on it and use the disk of data, files, music, etc. I searched the Lenovo site more Google and could not find an answer to this question. Thank you!

• Add a SSD to a HP ENVY 15-J030

  Hello
  
  I just acquired an HP Envy 15-j030 and I find the 5600 RPM a bit on the low side. I was wondering if I could improve it with an ssd (246GB) and use an external hard drive for my large files? I read something only support 24 GB ssd? If this is the only supported ssd, it would still be good to add an ssd 24GO and use the hdd usb 3.0 for files? Or is it possible to add more than 24 GB
  The SSD to the computer?
  
  Kind regards

  You need not type mSATA SSD.  With an SSD as a single hard drive, you don't need a cache drive to increase access time.

  Your choice of a Samsung 840 EVO 2.5 inchesSSD is perfect.

  I have one of my ASUS Crosshair Formula V as a startup disk. I appreciate it.
