Add hp Zbook G3 studio additional ssd - drive surgestions

Dear community,

I would add an additional SSD to my Hp Zbook g3 studio. I found that the following SSD is compatible with my laptop but unfortunately it was sold for the last 2 months.

Essential MX200 m2 Type 2280 (Single Sided) 500 GB internal SSD

Therefore, I have a few questions about an additional SSD:

-Is it better to add an SSD of 500 GB and the use of external storage or a 1 terabyte SSD?

-Each SSD 2280 m2 (single Sided) is compatible with my laptop?

- And what is someone knows an SSD alternative to the above which is compatible with my laptop?

Thank you very much in advance,

Greetings,

Rick,

The complexity of all this is the way out of hand. What you are, it is a SATA m2. I just put a disc of NVME m2 (aka PCI-e) of 512 gigabytes in my G3 Zbook (no studio). I know that your laptop is a little different, but I'm pretty sure that it's the same kind of m2 of housing and I don't know that a SATA would work. I know that it doesn't work the other way around. If the laptop is made for the m2 SATA drives only, you cannot use a PCI-e. In fact, I installed an official part of HP. The ordering process is another question, but let's say I got it, and it turns out to be a Samsung SM951:

https://www.Amazon.com/Samsung-SM951-512GB-NVMe-MZVPV512HDGL-00000/DP/B015CWR4M2/ref=pd_lpo_147_tr_t_3?ie=UTF8 & PSC = 1 & refRID = YA2TAQZPDE3NNQCWCNSH

I used it to replace a Samsung PM951 256 concert which is like the PCI-e m2 budget model, so I know that two of them are working.

Look at the pictures and you can see a difference. The SATA drive has 3 pins that plug in and the PCI-e has only 2.

The manual on page 2:

Manual

Specifies EITHER a SATA m2 or a PCI-e, so you can be OK, but I'll tell you a PCI - e has double or triple the speed of read/write.

Mine supports 2 x m2 and a 2.5 inch SATA. Your accepts 2 x m2 I read the manual and what appears to be a 2.5 inch non-standard SD

I actually still the 256 PM951 concert. We can help you find something compatible and I can tell you that the HP part was estimated at a very favourable point (about the same as the Crucial which is out of stock) If you can't stand waiting rather difficult and slow checkout process.

    Hi, Woodennail

    Unfortunately this isn't possible without voiding the warranty. As evidenced by this page, the only parts that can be replaced by a user are the hard drive and the hard drive cover. Any other room, for example an mSATA SSD, must be installed or replaced by the staff of Lenovo.

  • Can I add an additional hard drive storage?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    Basically, you have two choices:

    1. install a second hard drive (only possible if your computer has physical space for this)

    2. replace your 40 GB with a bigger drive.

    If you add or replace, there are two important factors you need to consider size and interface type.  Most laptops use 2.5-inch disks.  Most of office/towers use 3.5-inch disks.  There are several different hard drive interfaces, and you get a drive that has the same interface as your computer.

    Most older computers use the Parallel ATA interface (PATA or sometimes simply ATA).  These discs are also called IDE disks.  There are several variations, but those generally available today is the Ultra ATA66 IDE / ATA - 5, Ultra ATA100 IDE / ATA - 6 and the Ultra ATA133 IDE / ATA-7.  The numbers refer to the data transfer rate.  No matter the data transfer capacity of the disc, however, your actual data transfer rates will be limited by your motherboard.  Finally, you'll notice an RPM rating and a size of "cache".  For the performance, in general, the higher these numbers the better the performance.

    Number of computers more recent uses the interface Serial ATA (SATA).  There are three versions of the present.  SATA-1 (1.5 Gbps), SATA-2 (3 Gbps) and SATA-3 (6 Gbps).  However, given that you currently have a 40 GB drive, it is strong enough to bet that you have NOT of SATA.

    Another interface is SCSI.  You have probably not SCSI.

    The starting point is by identifying the brand and model of your computer.  If you have a desktop/Tower computer, you can buy almost any hard drive, that you like; laptops can be a bit more picky.  A good resource for readers (once you know what you want) is newegg.com  Drive Solutions offer one advice that should tell you what players are compatible with your computer.

    If you choose to replace rather than add them, you will need to 'clone' of your existing to the new drive.  To do this, you will need appropriate software.  Sometimes, the software basic disk of cloning comes with the disk (remember to read the product description or email/call the seller before you buy).  Sometimes, it is available as a free download from the manufacturer of the drive (for example, if you buy a Western Digital drive, WD has "Acronis True Image WD Edition Software").  Or you can get your own copy of various applications of cloning, some are free, but more for sale.

    If you replace a laptop (or a drive in a desktop/tower with no computer available drive Bay), you can buy an external hard drive enclosure.  There are a variety of them.  Just be sure to get one with the internal interface correctly to match the drive and an external interface that is compatible with your computer (usually, USB 2.0).  External hard disk enclosure are sometimes comes with disk cloning software.  And, once your new drive is in place and functioning satisfactorily, you can put the old drive in the box and erase (format) it and use it as a backup drive.

    Above sounds a lot more complicated than it is.  You will probably find even the process YouTube videos, if you look at.

  • 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.

  • Tecra S4 does not detect the SSD drive

    Hello together,

    Hello

    You must add the SATA/RAID driver.
    Download from here:
    http://Support1.toshiba-tro.de/Tedd-files2/0/RAID-drv-20070719134547.zip

    Now, go to the BIOS and on the 3rd page of the BIOS, you can change the RAID settings to * 1RAID-0. *.
    Eventually, you will need to enter the password 1234 + and then press on + ENTER +.
    Now boot from the Windows 7 installation disc.
    Select "Custom Installation.
    Connect the USB where the RAID driver files

    Regarding the selection of the target (SSD drive isn't visible yet) disk, select "Load Driver" and navigate to the USB key, where is the folder with the drivers. Setup for Win 7 now allows you to select a memory stick USB attached.

    Confirm and after that we should include a list of available devices (SOLID-STATE drive)

  • Conversion HARD SSD drive on MBP 2010, need to program

    I have a 17 "middle MBP 2010 and in the process of conversion of SSD HARD drive.  I use the latest version of Mac OS X.  What program is recommended to mirror, for the SSD HARD drive image before installing? Or should I simply to reinstall all the programs instead, and then add the data?  A problem, I think that I have on this last approach is that I have many books in iBooks who came not through iTunes, and I see no way to export the data.  Are there times or saving strategies that I use in this business, the question of iBooks and the whole process of frustration?

    To install an SSD in a MBP is fundamentally no different from a HARD classic disc.  Format the SSD drive in disk utility > erase to Mac OS extended (journaled) and then copy the HDD to the SSD.  I recommend to use Carbon Copy Cloner for data transfer.  It copies everything. including the OSX and the recovery partition.

    Ciao.

  • HP ENVY desktop computer - 750-339c: desktop HP ENVY - 750-339c adding ssd drive

    Can we add a ssd drive to this computer

    The answer would be 'YES '.  The procedure, parts, video and are explained here.

    I have a link only as an example.  If your cloning the original HD, you must follow the steps by the cloning software. Be aware of the differences in the original size of the HD, I would keep side (to protect your OS system) after the installation of your SSD. If you want a secondary data drive, pick-up a new HD.

  • Re: Satellite R850-12R PT52CE Win7 sees no SSD drive

    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite R850 - 12R PT52CE and recently bought Adata SP900 256 GB SSD drive.
    BIOS can see this disc, but after I tried to install Windows 7 64-bit SP1, at the stage where I need to select the location to install it, it showed nothing.
    So I can not select anything.

    What is a problem?
    I tried to search for drivers for Windows 7 AHCI, but found that for XP.
    In the BIOS, I tried to put AHCI also Compatible mode, but were also unsuccessful.

    Would be nice if someone could share the solution.

    Hello

    AHCI driver is not necessary for Win 7, since this win 7 already contains this driver.
    What you can do is to add the Intel Rapid storage technology driver that is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    See page 2

    However, the manual is very vague as to the location and access to the m2 slot.

    Others have posted pictures and it seems that the manual does not and you don't need to remove and return on the motherboard for access. The location is right above the drive Bay hard see p. 35.

    So you can add a module to the WSSD m2 for your laptop, sometimes called a hard "gumstick" disc

  • Replace merge with ssd drive, cannot be done?

    My hard drive of my iMac 27 ", end 2012, is running out. It has a fusion of 1 TB drive.

    I asked the service guy how much it would cost to replace the 1 TB with a 512 GB SSD drive.

    He said that one cannot do. He claims that the only thing that can be installed is a 'disk original Apple', given that she is a fusion player, he has several sensors that a regular disk or an ssd, does not.

    Is this true? I thought drive merger was only a software technology "pair" a small disc with an older hard drive ssd.

    Of course, it is possible, but understand that the HARD drive in the computer has a special sensor used for the detection of the temperature and the fan control. In addition, what you ask is probably not an Apple authorized the change. A Fusion drive uses the features of Mac OS X CoreStorage to create the Fusion drive and manage. However, in itself a Fusion drive does not require any special equipment unless one you have used flash PCI-e instead of a real SSD memory.

    If your computer is no longer under warranty and complete loss of any future Apple support doesn't bother you, then you can make the change yourself.
