• Tecra R10 - hard drive upgrade for SSD

  Can we say if it is possible to change the hard drive for an SSD?
  It would be perfect!

  Why is it not possible? As far as I know Toshiba proposes some models of the Portege with SSD and SATA drives.
  For the time being SSDS are quite expensive and I don't think the best solution.
  What is the reason for the exchange of HARD drive?
  I still have no experience with SSDS, but I've read several articles ve noticed that Intel X25M should be good. According to the tests that has this HARD drive, comparing to other manufacturers, data transfer rate but it is quite expensive.

  Anyway, when you replace the HARD drive please let us know how it works, and describe your experience with it. It can be very useful for other members of the forum.

  Good luck!

• Lenovo x 240 HARD drive upgrade to SSD

  Hi all

  Need some advice. I recently bought a Lenovo x 240 1 TB HDD + 16 GB mSATA. I did some research and found that the 1 TB is a 5400 RPM one. I find that the Setup is a bit disappointing. When I up my laptop when watching videos, even gently, I noticed that the video crashes, stops or is interrupted then I think to replace the HDD with a SSD.

  A couple of questions, please.

  1. any suggestions for the SSD? who is compatible, what isn't? I understand that one SATA3?

  2. If I replace the HARD drive, I'll be able to restore everything? How can I migrate my Windows for the new SSD 8.1?

  Any suggestion is appreciated. I love the 240 x, if I could just improve performance a bit, so it'll be perfect.

  Thanks in advance guys / Lenovo team.

  It is useful in case you drop your laptop; It reduces the risk of the hard disk is damaged. Don't know about the details, but its power consumption is expected to be negligible.

  This is a comprehensive article on the alignment of 4K:

  Although the tool he recommends is certainly not the only tool capable of doing the job.

  Assuming that you use VLC to play video, a better fix for the video problem itself would be to increase this value to something like 5 or 10 seconds:

• 6710 b: HP Compaq 6710 b HARD drive upgrade

  I want to update my HDD 6710 b and mount a HDD more big gig either 500 or 1 TB.

  My current HARD drive is only 120 gig I was wondering if their was a reason why I could not do that?  for example the card mother and other material would allow for such a big HARD disk?

  You seamlessly from that I'm not an expert on computers and any help would be graciously accepted - don't want to buy a new HARD drive and find it does not work!

  Thank you very much.

• Pavillion DV6215CA: HARD drive upgrade to SSD

  Hello

  I want to change my HDD for one SSD Kingston V300 120 G. I think that my SATA controller is ver 1.0 (1.5 Gb/s) but I'm not sure. The SSD is ver 3.0 (6 Gb/s) with backward compatibility with ver 2.0 (3 Gb/s).

  Does anyone know the NVA of the controller on the DV6215CA or if it is possible to put a SSD in this notebook?

  Thank you

  Hello:

  Your laptop is a mobile intel 945 chipset series which only supports sata 1 (1.5 Gbps).

  For what it's worth, I recently installed and Intel 535 120 GB SATA III (6.0 Gbps) SSD in my notebook of professional HP nc6400 with the same chipset 945 like yours and it worked very well.

  The laptop is much more sensitive, even if the drive runs only 1/4 of its ability to transfer.

  Notepad starts a lot faster too.

• The T60 SSD HARD drive upgrade

  I have a Lenovo T60 (2623-KFU) for about 3 years now, and it's always hard with no real problems. I was thinking some SSD solutions. Is it possible (and not void the warranty) to replace the hard drive with an SSD Fluxsol? I hope that the Motherboad/BIOS/others does not limit this anyway.

  Otherwise, I do not use my WWan device and was considering to replace care wireless with a SSD Mini PCI-e card. I know that blocking the BIOS a few components, but is the restriction to only wireless cards, or for all?

  Yes the SATA 2.5 inch SSD will work, but it is limited to SATA1 mode, you are able to change the hard disk without affecting the warranty because it is considered to be a customer replaceable unit or THOUGHT.

• HP Pavilion Slimline s5580t CTO Desktop PC Hard Drive Upgrade

  Hi all

  I was wondering if I could upgrade my hard drive to an SSD and leave the existing as a backup HARD disk drive? Is there in the machine? Thank you!

  In a Slimline desktop space is quite limited, even if an SSD is format 2.5 ".

  You can probably adapt Island SSD in the Bay which was taken over by the DVD player.   Set up as startup disk so that you can enjoy the performance gain. Buy the largest capacity SSD that is in the budget to upgrade.

• Is it possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  I wonder if it is possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  If 'yes', I guess I have to go for a SATA SSD if there is. But I have to worry about other specs?

  If 'Yes'... what could be.

  I googled my question but no answers... so I ty Wizzards :-) Forum

  @Lord_Nikon

  In fact, this is not true. As long as he uses a large SSD enough it will be able to use the recovery media. I suggest using a SSD of 256 or 512 GB if budgeted for the upgrade...

  He doesn't have to make a Windows 7 installation USB drive and use the activation key license on the certificate of authenticity from the PC Windows to perform a cleanup to install.

  One of them should be on your PC. The Prodct key is what is needed for installation and activation online.

  

• HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  I want to put in a 60 GB SSD into the CD slot and want to see how fast it will support as this will be used for the Cache

  Thank you

  The published information is not explicit; He says only: SATA for the expansion Bay while the main hard drive Bay expressly says SATA-III. However, given that this isn't just an optical drive Bay, but also a general 'Bay expansion', it is safe to assume it of on the same SATA bus as main drive and is a SATA III interface.

  Data sheet

  6470b is also supposed to have a slot for a WSSD mSATA, but he is not described in the Manual:

  Manual

  Obviously the WSSD would work better for cache but you can use a 60 gig SSD in an expansion bay for both cache adapter. Even if the connection is SATA-II, it will be much faster to work for a cache of acceleration.

• Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD? or would it be too expensive?

  Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD?

  or would it be too expensive?

  Yes.  There are several alternatives.  I found a way relatively inexpensive, using a map of mSATA (very small SSD) and an adapter to connect it to the connector IDE 44 pin internal of my PowerBook.  It works very well.  Rather than repeat what I posted previously, you can watch these two topics (which also has good info, other users)

  Re: This win to install a SSD drive in a PowerBook G4?

  Re: SSDS  (my post is halfway - "this is how I did with my trusty Pismo...) »)

  FYI - I have used the adapter is even cheaper now

In any case, I'm trying to sell it, but my search for a buyer continues, I also try to establish - without much success until now - if a hard drive upgrade and/or installation of a fusion player any is possible. I am aware that the RAM in this model is not extensible.

  Although it is possible it is a company very difficult and will void any warranty future and Apple. Have you thought from the external drive Thunderbolt?

• Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Nowsome keys on the keyboard no longer works.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

  Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Now some of the keys on the keyboard stopped working.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

  Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop supports the disk HARD 2.5 SATA.
  I think you could use a SATA SSD drive. Usually some SSDS require the firmware update but this should be provided by the manufacturers of SSD drives.

• Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello!

  I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
  I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
  Thank you very much for your help!

  These are the specs on the site
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

  Hey Buddy,

  In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

  Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
  Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
  I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

• Satellite A40-151 Possible HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

  RPM
  buffer
  Number of PINS
  Type of the ATA

  I was watching a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST980815A, if this helps answer the question.

  Hello

  I found the info your device comes with 40 GB IDE (ATA - 5) HARD drive. I think in your case, to capacity. High-capacity hard drives are not recognized properly, but I think that with 60 or 80 GB HDD should perhaps be recognized correctly.

  If anyone on this forum can give you accurate information, I recommend you contact your local dealer or service in your country. They are experts upgrade material and they have accurate info on HARD drive upgrade.

  Good luck!
