  To upgrade your hard drive for an SSD, you must get an SSD that is the same format as the HARD drive.  Looking for a standard 2.5-inch SSD.  So that SSDS might work, however, you have read above, I would say something a little bigger.

  This SSD as it is a pretty good, and it is now on sale for $105: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-AM/dp/B00OAJ412U?tag=slicinc-20&ascsubtag...

• Windows OS 8.1 transfer between HDD and SSD on laptop (built-in two disks)

  Hi, I have an Alienware Laptop, 14, I wanted to transfer/copy/move my current OS (Windows 8.1) of my HDD (1 TB) to my (7.3 GB) SSD. I tried many methods I've seen online in other forums, I restored my computer whenever I between methods, when they fail. Yet, I need to find an effective way to do... I tried the following:

  -Start switched from AHCI RAID
  -Transformed into legacy prioritize boot from a USB device and tried to run AlienRespawn and Windows OS 8.1 (drawn from Microsofts website), twice, on two USB keys separate (both about 15 GB of storage).

  The result of AlienRespawn was simply did a cover of my HARD disk drive and my OS remained where he was, nothing has changed with my SSD. That being said, there is no selection in my START menu to choose which drive I want to start, for that, I guess I have to unplug my HARD drive so that it my laptop self chooses to run by using the SSD.

  The result of the execution of the USB with the operating system of Microsoft 8.1 is it says some sort of error, I googled the error online, he says to reformat the USB key and drop the operating system on it, and then try again. I did that twice, and both times found the same result (same error).

  I also tried to clone my HARD drive of my SSD using EaseUS, who put my documents and files on my SSD, but my BONE was still running on the HARD drive.

  I cloned partitions with Partition Master, with negative results, as well as using Tuxboot and Clonezilla combo to start my laptop using Clonezilla, but at the start he just asked me to remove all USB devices that did not have an operating system on them (I had a USB in)

  I also tried a few different USB sticks (I went out and bought three to try).

  The more recent method, I tried with the help of DiskPart. I executed what she says on many forums/sites, which involved cleaning/selection/activation disk 0 or no matter which drive my SSD was on. But once again, no result no positive.

  I'm desperate, I want to just run my OS on my SSD laptops, is it really so hard, or I'm just using the wrong methods and/or measures hurt?

  If anyone can help with a step by step guide that worked for them, please enlighten me!

  Thank you very much.

  I did a lot of research ahead, and this program kept coming as the way the simpler, cleaner to move the operating system, according to the people about these and other bodies.

• Z560 - replace the HDD with SSD - solved using OneKey Recovery

  Hey guys,.

  In a few days time Santa is put me an SSD, OCZ Vertex 3 120 GB.

  I think to clone the drive following this guide: http://www.ssdfreaks.com/content/664/how-to-clone-hdd-to-ssd-with-windows-7s-own-software and I'm a little confused on the partitions that are currently on the disk.

  I have:

  Local disk C: 552,55 gb,

  LENOVO 28.8 GB D:

  and a partition unassigned 14.75 GB.

  Does anyone know what contains the unassigned partition? I guess that's the One - Key recovery software? If this is the case, then I intend on deleting the D: Partition, which currently contains drivers, narrows the C:\ about 100 GB and cloning then the C:\ 100 GB and partition unassigned... will this work?

  Bravo guys!

  Hey guys,.

  I got my Vertex 3 today and it is ridiculously fast. Totally recommend it if you can afford it. Anyway, I discovered how do I reinstall my laptop, and I'm going to ask you now:

  (1) One Key Recovery Opened and clicked on 'create recovery disk', followed by 'default recovery drive '.

  (2) thought - sod it, I'll just stay in my new SSD and see what happens. Inserted, set the BIOS to boot from the DVD drive, and then install windows.

  (3) gain?

  In fact, I found myself with

  C:\ 96,84 GB

  Partion unnamed (14, 75 GB) - this is the area of a key recovery

  Unnamed (200 mb) - partition likely etc boot sector reserved by operating system - seen elsewhere on other systems and is quite normal!

  So yes, that happened on a NEW SSD building, which had not been formatted before - OneKey Recovery did everything by himself.

  I hope this helps people in the future!

  Merry Christmas!

• Satellite Pro T130 - 14L: 100% CPU use of acpi.sys after changing the HDD to SSD

  Hello

  because I changed my for one SSD HARD drive and reinstalled Windows 7 with 64 bit on this subject, my system works frequently in 100% CPU utilization caused by kernel module acpi.sys, I discovered with process Explorer and confirmed by recording an ETL file.

  This problem occurs once an hour on average, sometimes after 10 minutes of functioning of the system and sometimes after two hours, no matter which programs are running and whether or not I is actively using the computer. When I noticed a hanging and see this 100% cpu core in the process Explorer window are currently in use, I always need to save my work (which may take a few minutes) and restart the computer.

  I could live with that, but it's pretty nasty. My bios is up to date (version 2.70), as well as my other drivers (no error and no virus found). In other forums I've read, these problems could be avoided by changing the energy registers something Windows settings as never go to sleep of the SSD, but it works in my case as I disabled all energy saving options in Windows and I still have this problem.

  Is there maybe an update of the unofficial bios that could solve this problem?
  I read in another forum, that an unofficial bios update Dell fixed a similar problem on a Dell computer.

  Can someone help me solve this problem please?

  Details of process Explorer:
  The wire with TID 160 and the start address:

  ACPI. SYS + 0X1AF7C

  suddenly starts using 100% CPU and does not stop until you restart.
  Similar problem as in this forum for a Dell PC:
  https://social.technet.Microsoft.com...UM=w7itproperf

  Unlike the Dell problem, there is no appropriate-updated bios for me, could you help me if you could tell me how to stop the kernel module (if it starts hanging or even before). Then I could at least avoid frequent restarts.

• Change HDD to the SSD, what are the options?

  Hi guys, new to the forum, I just bought a thinkpad x130e during a sales event on one of the local retailer, pretty excited, because I like the rugged design.

  I am looking to upgrade to 320G HDD for one SSD 128G... but I have no installation disc 7 windows very practical, so, what are the options for me to install the operating system (windows 7).

  I don't know if there is a way to transfer the whole of the SSD HARD drive? is there a trick to perform? or quite simply, I just bought the new copy of windows?

  COS, I noticed that I have a windows7 pro product key at the bottom of my thinkpad, I kinda don't want to lose money.

  Help, please...

  You don't need to buy another copy of Win7. You will need

  1 SSD. It has to be is not 7mm thick, the most common 9.5 mm thick.

  2 USB box for your HARD drive,

  3. software to "clone" the content of your disk to your SSD. Acronis True Image is a well-respected package that does this. There are also a few free utilities that can do this, however, I'm not familiar with them.

  Procedure:

  1. move the HARD disc on the outer envelope.

  2 put the SSD in the X130e.

  3 reboot from the HARD disk. (You need to interrupt the boot with the blue ThinkVantage button to specify).

  4. install Acronis (or equivalent).

  5 RIP clone disk. You will have to tell the software how you resize partitions because you go to a smaller drive.

  6 restart from SSD.

• HP laptop - 15-ay107ne: replace the HDD with SSD

  Hello, I am aiming to change my HARD drive with an SSD on my HP laptop. But the licensed operating system and recovery are shipped at the disk of existting on my machine. Is it possible to move them to an SSD and reinstall the OS on the SSD?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  No, the licensed operating system isn't on the old HDD, is so on the BIOS of your machine you can install SSD of fees if you wish. Pleae Note: you can install olny a swme version/edition of Windows 10.

  The quick and easy way:

  1 creating the USB drive recovery using HP Recovery Manager then return files after installing the SSD.

  2 clone existing HARD drive SSD using cloning software, then exchange them.

  Kind regards.

• Qosmio X 500-10T: what setting should I change after upgrade SSD?

  Hello community,

  I'll upgrade my Qosmio X 500-10T (currently with two 512 GB drive HARD, although only has data on it) with a Samsung 840 series 256 GB 2.5 in SATA SSD Pro and then perform a new installation of Windows 8.

  My question: what settings should I change once the switching plate?

  I think there may be some settings in the BIOS that may need to be changed.

  Also, it is recommended to remove the second HDD due to possible performance issues along the SSD?

  Are the drivers on the windows-compatible laptop computer support page 8?

  P.S. I read on UEFI, is there a way to update/upgrade existing in UEFI BIOS?

  I know it's a lot of questions, but any help is appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  > My question: what settings should I change once the switching plate?
  > I think there may be some settings in the BIOS that may need to be changed.

  Usually, you do not need to change anything in the BIOS.

  > Also, it is recommended to remove the second HDD due to possible performance issues along the SSD?

  You may notice poor performance while moving or copying data from the SSD hard drive or SSD HARD drive.
  but to think that you can keep the HARD drive in the 2nd Bay for other files.

  > Are the drivers on the windows-compatible laptop computer support page 8?
  Do you think that some drivers Win 8 there?
  If so, they are...
  otherwise, you can try some Win 7 drivers in the frame to win 8

  > . I read on UEFI, is there a way to update/upgrade existing in UEFI BIOS?
  If you're going to see an update of the BIOS for the Qosmio X 500 with a serial number 6. XX or later version, then it would be a version of BIOS released to win 8 too

• Pavilion dv6-1255-EA: upgrading ram and HDD to ssd

  Hello, my laptop (pavilion dv6 1255-EA portable entertainment I bought 6 years with core 2 due processor, 4 GB ram, 500 GB HDD and AMD catalyst HD 1 GB graphics card) is running a bit slow so I however get a new ssd and / or more than ram would make it faster, I currently have 4 GB of ram and 500 GB hard drive installed in my laptop and I was woundering what are those that I can? Are crucial bullsticks 8 GB of ram and 7 with 9 in ssd adapter compatible? I need an answer as soon as possible because I saw some discounts on these on amazon so that I won't have to wait for black Friday to get them again. And it would also be good if someone also indicates what screwdriver I use.

  Hey @Ajijawi,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!
  
  I came across your post on the HP Pavilion dv6 - 1255ee Entertainment Notebook and eager to replace the hard drive of 9.5 mm or increase the RAM. Even if it could adapt to the Notebook ok. Queues screws could be different. Here is a link to your service manual page 69 for the hard card. I would really check this before buying new HARD drive. You may need to change so it does not move. The 500 GB SATA 6 GB/s SSD internal SSD 2.5 "would work for this model of laptop including that you have an AMD System.

  This laptop supports up to 8 GB memory system DDR2, 800 MHz, PC2-6400, page 1-DIMM 32 of the manual above.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you.

• Replace the HDD with SSD boot disk and use the disk HARD now as secondary storage

  I would like to replace my dv7 - 6143cl HDD with a SSD boot drive and using the OEM HARD drive as secondary storage.

  I have the SSD and the caddy

  I need to:

  delete the original OEM HD

  Install the SSD

  install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

  Install Win 7 (I don't have install disks - what is on the HARD drive in his backup partition)

  or I have to

  delete this HD

  Install the SSD

  go into the BIOS, and then assign him drive in AHCI (etc.)

  Install Win 7

  install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

  etc.

  I want to dual-boot, if possible, but I think that the second HD (start-up disk) does not start, even if I change the settings in the BIOS

  is this true?

  I7

  8Gb

  Win7 (64)

  Thank you very much

  Hello:

  Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

  If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

  If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

  I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

  So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

  To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  Can't answer your question on the dual boot as I never did before.

• How to change back to SSD HARD drive?

  My mcbook pro comes with the original 500 GB of HARD drive. When he ran with a problem, I went to an apple repair shop. Problem was in the charts, and he suggested the HARD drive to be replaced by a 120 GB SDD. So it has been replaced, but the guy on the left HARD drive as a storage device. Moment where DDI is left with small space and when I update to OS X El Capitan of OS Sierra, it had to be installed in the HARD disk drive. Could someone please give instructions to install the new OS to the SDS to lose all my data and the current configuration and it is also possible to install windows XP on the HARD drive and 10.  Either by the way, I got Windows 10 and XP shared with the SDS via parallels. Thank you

  I think this can be useful for you:

  How to use an SSD with your HARD drive If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do. After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume. Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder. Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content. Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it.
