Change to SSD

Hello world

I intend to change my HARD drive of 320 GB to 240 GB SSD. I know that the SSD is smaller than my previous HARD disk, but I use it only for Windows, I store my data to the external drive.

My problem is how to transfer any partition of the disk HARD also resize in SDS.

My drive HARD partition 4 is "BOLD" must yield to the SSD

  1. System_Drv (1.46 GB, system, active, primary Partition)
  2. Windows7_OS (111,76 GB, Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, primary partition, 40 GB of free space)--> this one I resized depending on SSD
  3. Data (167 GB NTFS, Logical Drive)--> I'm really worried on this score since it fails on SSD
  4. Lenovo_Recovery (17,58 GB, primary Partition, space free 5.32)--> I need this partition because it is my source of original Windows.

If anyone knows how, please help.

Thank you.

  • Pavilion x 2: Windows product key Validation after hardware change (new SSD)

    I have a Pavilion laptop x 2 with a 64 GB SSD.  It came with Windows 8.1 but he now works Windows 10 - of course.  I decided to upgrade the 256 GB SSD.  I bought the appropriate module (a Sandisk).  I recently contacted Windows support to inquire about the procedure to validate the OS once I did the material exchange.  I wasn't sure how it would work since my x 2 Pavilion has incorporated into BIOS product key.  Microsoft told me that because I was going to do a hardware change I would need a new product key (in other words my laptop current product key would be 'blocked').  I was able to recover the product key of my Pavilion x 2 (OEM and installed keys - what is the difference?).

    Does anyone have experience in this field?  Once I have replace the SSD and perform a clean install Windows 10, will be the key to product embedded BIOS validate operating system or it will reject?  Since I'm NOT buying a HP SSD (with preloaded operating system) and that my x 2 Pavilion is now long out of warranty?  I really have to pay over a hundred dollars for a new Windows operating system license?

    Thanks in advance for any advice/help.

    Francis

    Parameters indicate that I have a digital right so with a bit of luck when I change the SSD and install Windows 10, the machine must validate without a qualm.  I tried to see if I could link my Validation of my Microsoft account but I did not have this option on my settings (although in the past when I re-install Windows 10, link validation of my Microsoft account operating system so I guess it works.)  Also, I guess I have the anniversary edition from my machine updated automatically.

    If all else fails, I'll see how it goes after the SSD upgrade and if I have to deal with Microsoft.  I also agree with you that change the SSD (essentially the ' drive') is NOT a significant change in equipment and shall not impose a new product key, but then, nothing surprises me more.

    Your tips were helpful and I thank you.

  • HP pavilion n242se 15: I want to change to SSD HARD drive in my laptop

    Hello

    I have the computer hp laptop pavilion 15-n242se.
    can I change to SSD HDD in my laptop?
    and what kind of SSD is the best for my laptop?

    Yes, you can do but see p. 59 of the manual here:

    Repair manuals

    You might be surprised to see that this is not a simple procedure, but it will work if you replace the HDD with a SSD in the hard drive compartment.

    You need a width of 2.5-inch SATA SSD. Like this:

    How can I change the internal SSD 128 GB a new 500 GB SSD drive.
    Is there a manual to change SSD?

    Because of the design specific SSD should be upgraded to authorized service. To have full access to build SSD almost the entire machine must be dismantled, so I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and seek advice and they can help you with this.

  • Change the SSD or RAM in Portege Z10t?

    Hello

    As we know that it is very easy to change the RAM memory or the Portégé R700-930 series SSD drive.
    It's a little more complicated for the Z series.

    I just wanted to know if this is possible for the new series of Z10t?
    The standard elements of 4G and 128G are a bit small for my taste.

    Thank you
    / Anders

    Hello

    I think the upgrade on Portege Z10T is another story and not comparable with other series such as Portege R700.

    The Portege Z10T is a mixture of Tablet / netbook device and mSATA SSD drive is placed within the tablet that is not upgraded to the user.

    If 128GB are not enough for you, you can insert and use the extra memory media into the SD card slot

  • Reinstalling windows 7 ultimate retail after changing the SSD, the motherboard and the processor. I'm having a problem with the reactivation?

    I'll upgrade my desktop PC, by changing the motherboard, processor and SSD drive with the OS on it to boot. I have a problem with the reactivation of windows, and should I turn it off, somehow first, or the previous version will be considered as-enabled automatically? It is a retail, windows 7 64 ultimate version. Please advise, thanks in advance.

    Just reactivate by phone:

    How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
     
    1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
     
    (2) press the ENTER"" key.
     
    (3) select your "country" in the list.
     
    (4) choose the option "activate phone".
     
    (5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
     
    (6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.
     
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us

    Remember, if it is a retail upgrade license:

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    You can skip to enter the product key and try the activation of the phone to work around this problem.

  • Portege R500 - can I change the SSD?

    Hello. The question of replacement, replace the ssd.

    I myself PORTEGE R500 (PPR50U-02M01W version) with SAMSUNG_MCCOE64GQMPQ_SE805B0137. He has only 64 GB.

    I contacted Toshiba service asking to replace by something big, they said it's impossible! HOW DO I? It should be possible to replace the 64 GB SSD 256 GB SSD!

    If anyone can give me the link to SSD, who's going to fit 100% into my existing ssd will be very grateful!

    > I contacted Toshiba service asking to replace by something big, they said it's impossible! HOW DO I? It should be possible to replace the 64 GB SSD 256 GB SSD!

    And why wouldn't this possible? The technician said that?
    To my knowledge, it should be possible to use any disk SSD because SSD drives use the same interface as ordinary hard drives

    As far as I know there is a common controller SATA and SSD with SATA interface should work

    That s in my opinion

  • Can I change HD SSD in my end of 2014 Mac Mini?

    I just bought a Mac Mini (2.6/8/1TB) 2014 end and love it so far. I have a spare Samsung 500 GB SSD (Samsung SSD 840 EVO) that I don't use and I was curious if readers could be exchanged, or better still if the Mac Mini I would be compatible 2 discs? I'd do the boot drive SSD and drive the data reader to say existing 1 TB.

    I would need to bring it in a place (MicroCenter, Best Buy, etc.) to make it happen as I'm not comfortable to perform this type of upgrade on an Apple product.  I realize that the guarantee may be honored after that and I'm fine with that.

    All the words of wisdom? Can it be done? If this is not the case with my SSD existing so what are my options?

    Thanks to a bouquet.

    Yes, you can swap disks. No, there is room for a second disc of 2 1/2 in. in the Mini 2014

  • Is it easy to change HARD SSD drive on Acer TravelMate P246-M - 53T 2 14 "Laptop?

    Interested by Acer TravelMate P246-M - 53T 2 14 "Lpatop and that you want to upgrade to an SSD, it is simple to swap the disks or the hard drive built into the Board of Directors?

    Any information on this would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    It should be a regular SATA HDD and exchanges with a SATA SSD. I can't find guides to do this on a TravelMate P246-M - T 53, 2. Unless it has a door down to access the HARD disk and memory, you probably need to remove everything down. To the Acers you can take all the screws on the bottom and gently, she jump off and some will be tied down, so much, be careful of who and static damage electronics.

  • Is there a compatible ssd to upgrade early 2015 Macbook Pro?

    Planning on buying a new macbook pro.  Information on upgrading the early 2015 macbook pro said that it wasn't something compatible yet.  I was wondering if in 2016 if anything compatible exist now?

    OWC (macsales) can have.

    But even open systems of the retina may void the warranty and can give the Genius Bar the right to deny any future service to avoid being blamed for what you broke.  Change the SSD guarantees you invalidation some.

    Two DIMM slots with 16 GB support apparently. You won't need 16 GB. Take a set of 2 x 4 GB RAM dual channel, I'll leave a link to a few good things that I use for my cell phone 16 GB

    http://www.ebuyer.com/646124-HyperX-...1779&PKW=&Pmt=

    Also, Yes, of course, you can change the SSD, you will need to get some kind of USB 3.0 in the first mSATA interface and clone the existing drive overall, because laptops do not want fresh windows install.
