can I install an SSD on my hp DV4-5008tx

Hi, currently I am using hp Pavilion DV4-5008tx notebook pc, I was wondering if I can install an SSD in my laptop for better performance. Is there any space to add hardware in my laptop?

Hello

You have to SWAP out the HDD existing instead for a new SSD.

Kind regards.

  • Can I install an ssd and its system of MacBook Pro mid-2010 on a Mac Pro mid 2009

    Hello

    My MacBook Pro just died yesterday (logic board) and I want to install the SSD with the system on a Mac Pro.

    I just ordered a case to install the ssd drive in the machine.

    I wonder if I can boot directly from this SSD or if I do the previous setting in the system.

    Given that the Mac is able to run the latest version of Mac OS X, and you want to move the SSD for older Mac rather than new, it should work. I guess that saying you 'ordered a case to install the ssd drive in the machine' you mean connecting via USB rather than internally, which would be a great test.

    If it works, I would say running the combo for OS update comes on the SSD once it is installed in the older Mac.

  • can I install an SSD on an optical drive in a HP Envy Phoenix

    I just bought a custom HP ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 810-350se CTO with a Raid 5 (3 x 2 TB) configuration, but I noticed and did some research it seems that it's better to have an SSD installed for faster computer access data, of course, I want to use for the operating system installed on it.  So I have two questions?

    (1.) I can change the configuration so that I can add a SSD on an optical drive? (This will be the 4th disc). Since I already use 3 HARD drive on a Raid 5 configuration and there is no more space on the left, I guess I can only use an empty space of optical drive and install a SSD?

    2.) is there a limitation on the number of readers and HARD disk can be installed on the motherboard?

    My proposed solution is to keep the 3 HARD drive and install a 4th disk (SSD) on the optical drive and use it to the operating system (Windows 8.1).

    Recommendations or suggestions is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Your PC is already using a bootloader of Windows 8 and if you load the SSD in UEFI mode, then you will add an another boot loader of Windows 8 for the menu eligible boot device.  This will lead to confusion.  I suggest that you avoid this situation by trying the following procedure:

    1. Don't forget to create the external HP recovery media
    2. Install the SSD on port 1 or 2
    3. Disable startup secure in the BIOS and set the legacy mode
    4. Start the Intel OPROM and rebuild the matrix RAID 5
    5. Boot into the BIOS and UEFI mode
    6. Start the external HP recovery media and load the SSD drive (SSD recommended size is 240 GB or more)
    7. Once you are currently running and then go to disk management and upward and format the matrix RAID like TPG

    The above procedure may or may not work, but that's what I would first try.

    AMD model No., you can not install a WSSD. The answer on Intel models depends on the specific model. Many cannot use a WSSD as boot drive, but some can.

  • I can add install additional SSD on the S230U Twist HHD version?

    The price is very close to 128gSSD / 4 g/i5 and i7 / 8 g/320gHHD?
    Can I buy the latest version and install additional SSD by myself to get the best flexibility to upgrade?

    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.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news,

  • Can I install an SSD in a Pavilion DV9925NR

    I want to improve the performance of this laptop and thought it would be useful that I went with an SSD. I put one in and if I can exactly what I look for in an SSD that will work in this phone?

    Also now I have 4 GB of ram, I can improve to 8?

    Thank you

    Bruce

    Its actually the original SATA aka SATA-I (150 MB/s) and yes it will work to use a SATA-III... All SATA is backward compatible. Think of it as a hard drive... you can use any 2.5 inches in width and 7 or 9 mm thick SATA SSD. Windows 7 includes the storage controller you need: just install and he knows an SSD when he sees one, and optimize it.

    If you are really looking for a concert of good sale 250 that SSD are now right at $100. Even if the laptop dies, I guess you can always reuse the SSD.

  • Can I install an SSD in a 14-1100 ENVY

    I would like to replace it with at least a 500 GB SSD.

    Thanks for the replies.

  • Can I install an ssd m2 in a VN7 Aspire 591 G (Nitro)?

    Canadian who do not come with SSD, but I would like to install an and I wonder if its possible. If so, what size should it be?

    I found this: "well, first of all: the m2 in the VN7 - 591 G Groove is 'only' SATA, PCIe is not supported, because as far as I know.» Maybe (but I don't know who) the PCIe will work, but even in this case only with mSATA-speeds, so it's just a waste of money. just the motherboard does not support the PCIe m2.

  • SSD for HP Envy dv4 5312tx

    Hello

    can I add an SSD for my hp dv4 5312tx envy?

    that one is recommended? and how do I restore my 8.1 existing windows to new SSD?

    Kind regards

    Andy

    Yes you can. Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    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.

  • Can I install Ubuntu in the U940-sp4103gl Satellite SSD?

    Please help me as soon as possible.
    Here are my questions:
    Can I install ubuntu in the ssd from Toshiba u940-sp4103gl?

    How to do this?

    It's urgent, I will appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

    I put t see no reason why you shouldn't be able to install Linux.
    You would need to make some change in the BIOS of the U940 satellite.
    (1) disable secure boot
    (2) pass the CSM UEFI

    Now all that, you should be able to boot from the disk or USB memory stick.
