Can I mount a 7mm HARD drive in the Dell XPS M1530 HARD drive Bay?

I have a laptop Dell XPS M1530 age of 5 year.

IAM assuming that the maximum height of the HARD drive Bay is 9.5 mm...

Can I put a 7mm HARD drive in this Bay?

Kindly help!

Hey Osprey4, thanks for your help.

I realized that I wasn't dragging hybrid HARD drive in the correct position, I had to keep a little high, and he fell just in place in the Bay with a single click...

The HDD (HDD, or hybrid) works very well, and I definitely see improvements in the performance and startup time!

And people looking for answers-

    You misunderstood what George wrote.  Dells have a "factory restore Partition" and reinstalling Windows procedure that is described in the manual of your PC.  For example, here is an excerpt from the mine-

    Reference Dell Factory Image Restore [excerpt from manual for Dell Inspiron 1545]
    1. turn on the computer.
    2 when the Dell logo appears, press several times to access the Advanced Boot Options window.
    Note: If you wait too long and the operating system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the Microsoft Windows desktop; then, shut down your computer and try again.
    3. Select repair your computer.  The System Recovery Options window appears.
    4. Select a keyboard layout and click Next.
    5. to access the recovery options, log in as a local user. To access the command prompt, type administrator in the user name field, and then click OK.
    6. click on Dell Factory Image Restore. The Dell Factory Image Restore welcome screen appears.
    Note: Depending on your configuration, you may need to select Dell, then Dell Factory Image Restore factory tools.
    7. click on next. Data delete screen is displayed.
    Note: If you do not wish to continue Factory Image Restore, click Cancel.
    8. check the box to confirm that you want to continue reformatting the hard drive and restoring the system software to the factory condition, then click Next.  The restore process begins and may take five or more minutes. A message appears when the operating system and the applications installed in the factory have been restored to the State of the plant.
    9. click Finish to restart the system.

    You can find this information for your model on the Dell support website [through www.dell.com ] If you have thrown the manual of your PC and don't have any pdf copy of it.

    The manual of your PC will also be instructions for creating a set of "Recovery disc" and do this after the factory restore.

    In addition, the backup utility provided with Dells [mine is DataSafe Local, but that may have changed] has the ability to create a USB bootable from the "factory restore Partition" so that you can deal with a hard disk failure in the future.  So do because it is a valuable tool [an insurance against future problems] - they advised me to use a 16 GB USB key, but the image is only 6.2 GB so I could use a 8 GB USB key instead.

    Palcouk is also correct.  All this which may or may not have been provided with your purchase, Dell will provide a floppy disk to install OEM of Windows 7 on demand - the load is small, I think [I think I saw a post about it being $30].

  • Dell XPS M1530 Windows reinstalled Vista, network driver does not

    Hi, I had to replace the hard drive on my Dell XPS M1530 because of the complete failure of hard drive.

    I installed Windows Vista and also installed all the drivers from Dell. All of them seem to work fine except the driver of Ethernet controller and wireless adapter one. I tried to download the drivers from Dell Web site, but who moved it - it comes up with this message: "the device could not be detected. Installation interrupted.

    In other words, that I can't connect to the internet, so using computer for a friend right now. Is there a driver I can download to make it work?

    Hi, thanks for all your suggestions. I tried to look at all the possibilities in terms of manually install the drivers, but nothing has worked.

    So in the end I bought a USB key external wi - fi and with that, I managed to connect to the internet. Once connected, the laptop must have then auto-téléchargé the right driver for the internal modem, because a few days later, I managed to connect to the internet even without needing the key external wi - fi.

  • Can I sell my Dell XPS M1530 w/COA on eBay

    I would be able to sell the above material and COST (product key) on eBay? Could the book product key on another laptop from Dell or another manufacturer or is the key and activation limited to only this XPS M1530 laptop?

    The product key on the COA sticker that is can only be used on this PC for clean reinstall Windows 7   It is the best possible installation you may have.

    To resell you can run Dell Windows 7 PC Restore to wipe it is cleaner instead, or create a new account Admin-level accounts of user called owner, then delete your user account after you back up all your files. This becomes not only your visible but all your hidden user accounts App and program of personal data.  If you want to put them all in a folder of the user on the desktop for you to sort through, then you can delete once you are sure.

    As a final step I install CCleaner and run it is button run Cleaner, then it is tab register to find problems and clean them.

  • All new Dell XPS - hard drive dead - why? What to do next?

    Hello

    My laptop is only a few months old. Here are the plug and the summary of what past:

    • Windows Vista Home Premium
    • Western Digital Scorpio WD3200BEVT hard, 320 GB capacity, a new computer laptop Dell XPS M1530, Serial ATA Hard Drive, Interface SATA 5400 RPM
    • Black screen saying no bootable devices, the BIOS doesn't detect HD, no rattling or other noise.
    • Need JPEG and PSD files recovered.
    • It took in a few places, they said he had no visible external damage, but the BIOS would not detect HD.

    Hours before the accident/death:
    I went to my husband's office. I was using an ethernet network connection. The computer company made some changes to their network to prevent me from access to the files of the company and only have access to the internet only.

    Who could do something on my computer? I surfed on the internet for a few hours after making these changes to the network. Then I went home, started again and got the black screen with the error message "no bootable device. The BIOS does not detect my HD.

    Any ideas why this happened on a new computer/laptop HD?

    Do you know of any service data recovery 'white room', which have a fixed rate lower than $ 900?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Can I download drivers for Dell XPS 420 girl (windows xp) on my computer (Dell Studio 17 Windows 7) on a cd instead of install on my computer?

    I done a clean install on Dell XPS 420 after a crash.  Windows XP works fine, but it continues to ask that drivers can be installed before I can get on my internet which is At & T DSL with external modem.  When I try to go on the internet, it gives me the error of pilots.  I had what I thought, it was the disk drivers that came with the computer, but when I installed and then it is still asking for the correct drivers.  I called At & t for their support and they said I needed drivers.  That's why I came to Microsoft to download the drivers on my Dell Studio 17 on a cd, so I can load them onto the computer Dell XPS 420.  I was afraid to install on my computer because my Windows 7 running.

  • Dell XPS 18, Windows 8.1 using fixed headphones hissing, update the driver Realtek!

    I solved my problem and I wanted to just document here in case someone else goes through this. Just got my new 'giant tablet to the search"Dell XPS 18 last week. He loved until I decided to use my Bose headphones to listen to SiriusXM. I bagged just about up to return the XPS when I hear a constant hissing sound coming through the headphones. So I tried to listen to something on Youtube, and even with the muted Youtube audio, I even heard a shrill whistle.  Naturally, when energy saving, kicking because none audio wasn't playing, everything went quiet, but the whistle came right back as soon as any sound played through the headphones.

    The ATTEMPT FAILED: as more irritable geeks, I did an uninstall driver full audio drivers. Then I downloaded the drivers from the Dell Support Web to ensure site I had later and did a reinstall with a few reboots. Not surprisingly, I always understood that annoying hissing static coming through the headphones. Then I found somewhere a mention to go to Realtek.

    SOLUTION: Go to the Realtek site (www.realtek.com.tw) > click on downloads in main menu > click on High Definition Audio Codecs (software) > accept the advice > download 64-bit Vista, Windows7, Windows8, Windows8.1 driver only. Version R2.73. I clicked and downloaded the link US2: 64bit_Win7_Win8_Win81_R273.exe (103MB). I then ran the installation program which required two reboots to install completely.

    ITS OWN PURE! The hiss is now gone when listening with headphones.  Moreover, the Dell Audio MAXX Audio Pro, which is delivered on the Dell XPS 18 works always. I don't know what hidden feature, I could have lost, but I consider that it is resolved.

    Hope this helps someone who decides to use the headset with the Dell XPS 18

    1 million thanks!

    Worked like a charm!

  • How can I copy my old hard hard 'C' to the new reader, "C" drive reports an error and I can not clone!

    My 'C' drive is reported to be in danger of not, so I bought a new 500 GB drive which is currently housed in an external enclosure, my problem is I want to clone my old drive to my new but when I try an error is reported and the process stops.  I installed Win7 as an upgrade of Vista, so I can't mount the new drive as master, and then install Win7 because it will search the former Vista program before it will run. Is there a way I can install Win7 on my new record, at present in the external box connected via USB, and then exchange the reader to the PC to become my new 'C' drive and then individually copying my programs over the old 'C '?   I hope this makes sense, any help would be apprecisted.

    Thank you, Peter pond in the United Kingdom.

    If you have another hard drive, you can put in the case of external use Windows 7 builtin imaging app (Control Panel, Backup & Restore) to take a picture of the old hard disk Save external hard disk. You will also need to make the system repair disc to boot from to restore the image to new hard drive.

     

    Once you're all set, install the new hard drive, boot from cd/dvd repair.

    HP Pavilion HPE h9 (Phoenix), win 7 64

    Can I add a third SATA drive to my system?  The specs say three bays are available, but when I ordered it I could not add a third (or greater than 1 TB drives).  Is there something on the SSD that changes the spacing of the drive Bay?  I prefer not to take the walk outside if there is no way to add another drive.

    Please report the number of HP for your PC product.

    You review this article and video?  You will need to remove the cage hard disk to install the third hard disk. In general, the SSD is in the middle of each side mounting with HDDs of 3.5 ".  Hard drive cage is made for three hard disks.
