• 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.

• HP Pavilion Elite HPE-540me: adding an SSD (SATA III) for HP Elite desktop computer. Is this possible?

  Dear Experts...

  I want to upgrade my computer by adding an SSD as a master drive and move the original 2 TB drive to be a slave.

  I found several coices of SSDS, but almost all of them are SATA III interface.

  Is my office supports this interface? as it is just written that it has a SATA interface without specifying what version of SATA!

  How many hard drives could this office holds? I already have two (the original 2 TB and my old drive 256 GB) and I wand to add a SSD for Windows and the progs.

  Can I purchase this SSD for example? Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-series 500 GB 2.5 inch SATA III single-unit Version internal Solid State...

  It is the official my desktop HP specifications page .

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hello

  It has 2 bays free HARD disk as on its specifications:

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c02781215

  You can trade SSDS on your machine and make the old HDD as a secondary drive ("slave"). SATA III is backwards compatible so you can use it. Since then have been smaller SSD (normally 2.5 "), something that is similar to one of the following media:

• Install a second SSD in V15 VN7 - 592G possible?

  Dear all,

  I have a VN7 - 592 G - 747C that came with a 1 to + 8 GB SSD Toshiba HDD.

  Is it possible to add a second SSD to this laptop?

  If not, is it possible to replace this HARD drive with an SSD? I looked around and I saw that we could run into problems is not to have the right/connection cable, etc. I have no experience with SSD drives an explanation on what type of disks can be installed in this laptop would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Honestly, the Acer store (authorized service center) will be the best solution. This model is not really easy to upgrade.

  I'll give you a few models of SSD M.2 2280 (you don't need no cable):

  • Transcend
  • A - Data
  • Samsung

  You will also need a small fix/lock screw it: 86.MQJN1.002 - LIVE. M2xL3

• Adding an SSD on my PC without having to replace the HARD drive

  Greetings!

  I have a HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 180 t desktop PC with Windows 7 64 bit installed.  I do a good amount of games on my PC and a year ago I upgraded my card to an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 graphics and my diet to a Thermaltake TR2 RX 750W unit.  I also have a card mother mATX (9.6 "x 9.6") of PEGATRON.

  Recently, I tried adding an SSD for my machine in order to improve the performance and organisation for some PC games that I love.  I did some research on the subject and am found a bit confused on whether or not, my motherboard will be able to handle the addition of an SSD in my machine.  I have read that I need you sure that my motherboard supports natively AHCI?  How can I check to be sure that if I buy an SSD that I'll be able to integrate it into my system?

  To be clear, I want to continue to use my disk regularly to run my operating system and all the other goodies on my PC and install an SSD for store and load my music/movies/games etc.  I was watching some affordable 'mushkin' SSD that seem to do the trick.  I can give the link for more later if necessary.  Thanks for your help!

  Hello

  F10 to the HP splash screen you will get in the bios.

  AHCI is recommended for use with an SSD, but it is not necessary. Most modern SSDS are supported operation garbage collection which does almost the same thing to maintain the SSD.  Check with the manufacturer of your SSD.

  Even if the SATA controller is set to RAID and the SSD doesn't not part of an active array, topping should always work.

• HP ENVY 15 - ae: second SSD on HDD1 slot in HP ENVY 15 - ae?

  Hello

  I'm looking for a way to upgrade the SSD in a HP Envy 15 - ae. I opened it upward and the configuration is the following:

  -main 256Gb SSD PCIE Samsung

  -area empty HDD1 next to player of DVD, but no ferry and only a HDD1 connector empty on the main map

  Does anyone know if it's just a case of getting a larger SSD, IE 2.5 "SSD 512 GB, a flat flex cable SATA and a pan support and its connection to the connector on the main Board HDD1 sata? Or is there a problem that the equipment is not designed to deal with two disks or the HDD1 is not provided for this purpose at all?

  Pointers are appreciated.

  Thank you very much

• 17 j170ca - adding an SSD but no connector of envy?

  I want to add a second hard drive to this Envy 17 j170ca, but I'm surprised to see that is missing a cable/connector on the 2nd HDD slot.  I'm new on laptop, so these "tiny" cables are foreign to me. Someone can tell me what we call these cables if I could get for her, or kindly point me to where I can buy it, thank you.

• Adding an SSD on the 2nd Bay in a HP Envy 17-j021nr

  Hello world

  I know there are already a few questions similar to this one, but I just wanted to ask to be completely safe.

  From what I understand, I'm suppose to use the spare part kit 605415-001, but after watching carefully the kit I don't think it comes with the appropriate cable.

  My current HARD drive is connected via an AWM 20624 80 60V tablecloth, just like this picture:

  

  On the circuit where the cable is connected, there are two marked hubs HDD1 and HDD2, the former is used by the current HARD drive.

  Cable 605415-001 kit spare parts looks nothing like the cable that uses the current HARD drive.

  Do I need a different Kit for the HP Envy 17-j021nr? Or I do something wrong?

  Thank you all for your time!

  Christopher

  First of all, let me say very nice post with photos and everything. Very clear question. I am also a model of Envy 17-j0xx with a second empty Bay. I did an image search on google with the part number of the kit that you have published and there indeed a cable that comes out of the SATA adapter and goes to the motherboard which is different from a cable layer right like in your photo, but if you look at the end of this I think that the trick is inserted into HDD2 little marked zif connector. I intend actually get the second kit car here:

  Internal second HARD drive or SSD can be added if the laptop has a second location of HARD drive and room for a second HARD drive. Is this the case with your laptop?

  Check the underside if place to second HARD drive is available.

  Let's get down to the potential pitfalls:

  1. your HP computer uses Jasmine-R motherboard (MSI MS-7778) with six 6 internal SATA 6 Gb/s ports. beautiful card mother AMD, many SATA ports. GOOD to GO.
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03757575

  2. it is a MidTower case, with the hard drive mounted on a Vertical support, bottom left (view after removing the side panel). Follow the Web link below, for this how to (open side panel):
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04100666

  3. IF you want to add a second drive, in this case a 2.5 "Solid - State Drive (SSD), I see three 3 potential location.

  (A.) mounted horizontally, with support of the adapter in the box below the DVD/CD drive.

  (B) vertically, mounted on the Panel lower front of the computer case.
  A 3.5 "to 2.5" adapter support can facilitate this fixation or the player first itself (using the 4 holes tapped on bottom of SSD) IF the perforations (ventilation, fan, hard drive carrier) line up properly.

  (C.) mounted horizontally on the botton (floor) of the case. Location does not fit all applications.
  The San disk Extreme Pro SSD, I bought in 2014, has been mounting spacer/vibration rubber that could allow this type of editing with a contact adhesive. This montage approach is not appropriate in all cases.

  Selling manufacturers SSD Kits and readers Raw (desktop, laptop)- so working with your store of the local computer for sale retail (££ or €) for a proper selection.

  4. REVIEW the available power cables (SATA style) for their ability to reach these 3 mounting locations.
  Extensions are available from box Mod shops and retail stores.

• Storage SSD in Envy Touchsmart k013tx

  Hello

  I recently bought Envy Touchsmart 4 k013tx ultrabook and I saw the problem in trying to find the 24 GB Solid State Drive, I had to get. Device Manager displays a second hard drive, but has only 4 GB. Can someone please help me find the 24GO SSD space so that I can be sure that I got the same.

  Thanks in advance.

  Looking for a program called Intel Quick Start technology. Open the GUI for it and it should show the SSD drive. It is associated with a disk with hard drive for faster performance. It is not available for storage.

• Adding an SSD as a boot drive - how to install Windows Vista Start

  To speed up my new e9105z, I bought a new 80 GB Intel X - 25 M to reduce disk latency and complete the 640GO HARD drive came with my computer.

  Drive has been installed successfully, recognized by the PC and formatted with the Windows Vista Disk Manager tool.  When I use the BIOS tool to set the Intel SSD as my boot drive, it says that some files of startup is missing, and I come to on the HARD disk as the startup disk.

  Bottom line: how to install Windows Vista on the SSD and configure it to start?  Did I lose my classic HDD data in the process?

  Thank you

  Here is where I am/measures taken.  HP of course makes this difficult process:

  (1) used the CD Creator to make a backup.  (Note that the CD - R does not work with the e9105z software.  Do only DVD-R).  (I tried the system HARD disk recovery image.  He simply reinstalled itself on the HARD disk.)

  (2) the value of Vista installed on the SSD via backup DVDs.  System starts beautifully with SSD.  Hooray! I was about to declare mission accomplished, then...

  (3) Reconnected my HDD SATA cable, she failed to be the startup disk.

  (4) I used disk management to reformat the HARD drive to erase its boot sector.  It is always default to the HARD disk, which is more a Vista on it.  Now, I must go into the BIOS and choose the Intel SSD as boot drive whenever I turn on manually.

  Any idea on what needs to be done to configure the BIOS to finally settle the SSD as my boot drive?  The backup system image is still on the old hard drive.  Could that be throwing?

  The SSD speed is great, but the 6 + hours spent on Vista reinstall, reinstall and reinstall throughout this trial and error process made a royal PITA to do.  It seems that HP didn't consider that whether by adding a second drive that is bootable.

  Thank you

  millergd

  You should be able to select the startup disk in the BIOS.  Restoring image shouldn't be a factor.  If the BIOS settings do not work, I would swap the connectors between the readers.

  Good luck
