DV7 - 1253ca: a caddy for SSD work?

I have a dv7 - 1253ca and have tried to put an SSD in the second drive Bay without a shopping cart, but Win7 does not even recognize the drive is there. Do I need a cart for laptop to recognize the second disk?

DV7-1000 has no cable there are SATA connectors on the motherboard in the Bay. The hard/SSD drive plugs directly on the motherboard. If you put the reader into the connectors properly and it is not seen by the BIOS, then there is a problem with the drive or the motherboard.  If Windows does not detect the drive it may just be it is empty and must be 'initialized' i.e. partitoned and formatted.

  • Best way to make my SSD works again with a single partition

    There are 2.5 years, I replaced the original on my computer with a SSD hard drive. Months after I installed the beta version of Yosemite, the latest operating system for Mac at the time. To do this, the system created a partition on my drive, in which he has installed the beta version of Yosemite.

    I have today on the same partition, I installed Yosemite, Sierra macOS running. In the other, I have all files, so I want to eliminate. However, when I try to do this by using the disk on my Mac utility, it is not possible; I get a message that says I can't delete the first volume of the disc. When I try to increase the size of the partition on which macOS Sierra operates, so reduced the size of the other, the system won't let me.

    I would like to know what is the best way to make my SSD works with only one partition.

    You cannot delete the last partition that was created, that not 1.

    You can clone the content from the 2nd to the 1st, then you can remove the 2nd.

  • Use of the COMPENSATOR for SSD

    Can someone enlighten me on how to use the TRIM for my SSD function? According to Windows, the TRIM is enabled. What I need to know, is if it is a function that is called and executed automatically by the system? Or is this something that I need to manually call as a routine preventive maintenance (similar to the use of defragment)? Thanks for any advice.

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Useful information for SSD users with NVIDIA motherboards:

    Even if the Trim is enabled in Windows 7, mothers nForce NVIDIA cards do not send the order to the SSD TRIM.

    You can uninstall the well Nvidia controller in Device Manager and install the controller IDE from Microsoft, that allows to send commands to COMPENSATION for SSDS.

    Head to the Device Manager (menu start open, type Device Manager), and click on "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" and you will see 3 Nvidia Serial ATA Controllers. Right click on one of them and click on 'Properties' and go to the tab 'Pilot' 'Update Driver '. Click on "Browse my computer", then "Let me choose". You will see the option to choose "Standard dual channel PCI IDE Controller". Click this button and click on 'Next' and let it install.

    Do the same for the other Nvidia controllers in Device Manager, and then restart your system. After you have installed the controllers, you will be asked to restart again.

    SSD will have now a slight performance gain with the TRIM command, and ordinary hard drives also have a slight increase as well.

    I have an ASUS P5N - D 750i SLI motherboard and now my Trim actually works.

  • Dell Vostro 200 Slim Tower - for SSD Samsung 850 Evo BIOS settings

    Hi - I am looking to replace the HARD drive in my Dell Vostro 200 Slim Tower with a Samsung SSD of 850 EVO.  I am running the BIOS 1.0.16 and do not see the option AHCI, RAID or IDE only.  Should what BIOS settings I use to optimize the performance of an SSD benefits?

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    I could get my SSD working under RAID (10 Windows) with the following steps (which some may not be necessary).

    1. MiniTool Partition Wizard Bootable 9 CD to clone a copy of the existing for the Samsung SSD HDD (Samsung data migration tool did not acknowledge the Samsung SSD on Windows 10, even though Device Manager it identified as such).  It took nearly 36 hours to clone froma 160 GB 250 GB HDD to the SSD.
    2. Replace HDD with SSD and it started / worked as an IDE drive.  TRIM has been activated and works.
    3. Apply the hotfix to the register noted in the first post of this thread (it may or may not be necessary):
      1. http://forums.HEXUS.NET/motherboards/112584-how-enable-AHCI-RAID-mode-without-reinstalling-Windows-P35-ICH9-ICH9R.html
    4. Downloaded the Intel Matrix Storage Manager 7.5.0.1017 A00 (which is appropriate for the Vostro 200 Slim Tower) from the Dell Web site and run the extracted exe file on the disk.
    5. Opens the folder where the drivers have been extracted and made a right click > install iaahci.inf and iastor.inf files.
    6. Restarted the PC, went into the BIOS and changed the IDE in RAID mode.
    7. When the system is booted, I received the message "Inaccessible Boot Device", so I let the system automatically restarts, go through the automatic recovery/repair options, then follow the guests to launch the advanced Windows options recovery to start in safe mode.
    8. Once in safe mode, I opened the Device Manager, which now showed the following new features:
      1. Disc players

        1. SAMSUNG SSD 850 EVO 500G
      2. Storage controllers
        1. Intel(r) ICH8R/ICH9R SATA RAID Controller
        2. Microsoft storage controller
    9. The system is then able to start and be used normally.
    10. There are still problems with the Samsung Wizard software, but it seems that it is a matter of Samsung.

    Hope this is useful to someone.

  • Portege Z930 - need of external controller for SSD drive internal

    My Board TOSHIBA Portege (ex-portable) (Z930) burned with hot water. I removed the small SSD and now need to transfer the data with a USB drive on another PC.

    I borrowed from a friend a SATA USB adapter with 2 interfaces and even small connectors for SATA was not small enough for SSD from TOSHIBA. Apparently, I need a special SATA USB adapter that installs on TOSHIBA Portege mSata.

    The reason why I wrote here is because there are many SATA USB adapters in internet advertised, but it seems that they have larger connectors. While TOSHIBA calls the marked thereon mSATA SSD, but several people call mSATA for one size larger SSD.

    I don't want to order that something does not again. Is there someone who already removed SSD Portege?
    Could you give me a link for such adapter?

    The laptop was equipped with a chip HM77 Intel Panther Point and with the launch of the Intel chip allowed laptop manufacturers to integrate SSD form factor mSATA (micro SATA).

    There is also a difference between the mSATA form factors
    The mSATA being limited to four chips (NAND) only, Intel has developed a new standard mSATA called m2 or mSATA2.

    In many cases, this is also called NGFF (new generation form factor)
    This standard m2 is longer and has more low a profile

    I'm not sure if this Z930 Portege supports mSATA or mSATA2, but you check the internal SSD drive where this information should be available

    Hey,.

    I think that the best place to get this a HARD drive caddy is an authorized service provider. The guys are able to order all spare parts Toshiba so they can check what the good caddy, etc.. I think that it s best option for you because so you can be 100% sure you get the right part.

    In addition here he s here, only a user to user forum so no one can post the part numbers.

    And by the way: list of ASP, you can find here:

    Good luck! :)

  • Replacement for the Working Group to el Capitan Manager?

    I recently built new servers, intending using open directory.

  • Can LabVIEW Embedded for ARM works with any Board or just with a few predefined?

    Hello

    Can LabVIEW Embedded for ARM works with any evaluation committee or just with a few predefined (MCB2300, MCB2400 and EK-LM3S8962)? I ask this question because even if I chose "another processor" in the definition of the new project only 3 options are the corresponding arm of Phillips and LuminaryMicro.

    Thanks in advance,

    Howdy,

    LabVIEW for ARM supports the feature of targets for tier 1 (the mentioned Evaluation Committee) following this schema:

    http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/tut/p/ID/7066

    But you can transfer to other weapons if you follow this porting guide:

    http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/tut/p/ID/6994

    The uProcesser SDK is intended for the port of other targets of DEPENDENCE (32-bit, of course) and technically it covers ARM as well. Alternatively, there are the LabVIEW C Code Generator: http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/209015

    For w10pro c: / recommend reinstall to ssd or migrate ssd or even is...?

    SSDS all have sons the same size and holes threaded on the bottom and sides.  They all use the same fine metric threads live short (short, so they don't lower).  These screws must come with the adapter, and I live in general using the lateral holes.  Parts of the adapter have threaded, 3 holes and you will use the back ahead and away from those for channels of the drive Bay.  If you look at each side of a standard 3.5 "HDD, you will see the same same spacing holes.

    Some jobs need the SSD to shift to the left so the orientation of the SSD SATA power and data ports match exactly where they would be if the current drive was a 3.5 "HARD drive clutter.  An example is the drive in a Z620 of drawers which accept 3.5 form factor devices "and slides of drawers in the deep part of the case and automatically mesh with ports of power/data SATA back inside.

    Jobs that fuel just a loose cable and the data cable for the SSD is really doesn't matter much if the SSD is an adapter which keeps it more centered or offset to the left.  I've seen cases where a disk HARD 3.5 "given in the lower Bay and a centered SSD is in the upper drive Bay and there was nearly not enough cable length to reach easily shifted left for drives staggered in the Center.  You can see in the photo below that the Garland of feeding on the HARD drive has two unused SATA power below connectors, and there is not a lot of room between them.

    The card you chose seems good... solid metal.  For the HP 8200 Elite CMT I have access to screws 4 total special 6-32 UNC silver HP threaded screw threaded back ahead and away from the screw holes on both sides of the adapter, and then you use the extraordinary end threads metric short screws mentioned above to fix the SSD to the adapter, as shown in the pictures of Amazon.  These HP silver screw 6-32 no metric I'm talking using Torx or flat screwdriver and their leaders are trained to slip into the channels of the drive Bay.

    There are also other designs which are designed specifically for some HP workstations that include mounts insulation rubber with the sliding mechanism.  I don't think you have that... Here is a picture of eBay one of the 8200 Desktop Elite CMT demonstrating the existence of space on the left for 8 of these silver screw to store, which 4 are missing and used on 3.5 "single drive, you see there.  Don't throw those... they are not something, you can go to Ace hardware and buy.

  • Insert the CD-ROM for Microsoft Works 9.0 for critical updates

    How to change when I am asked to insert the CD-ROM for Microsoft Works 9.0 for the updates to take place? Given the computer came with all the software already installed and there is no disk provided. I can guarantee for hardward problems no software issues. Really need help on this one to prevent threats to the computer.

    Hi Cj_jez,

    1 is Microsoft Works and you will prompt to install the update or you are trying to install it via Windows updates?

    As the message is asking you to insert the CD of Microsoft Works 9.0, you will need to insert the right disk to install the update. As the computer came with all already installed software, the best option would be to contact the manufacturer of the system that has installed all the software on the computer.

    In the meantime, try the following steps and check the result.
    Step 1: Manually install the update
    a. visit the link and look for update for Microsoft Works 9
    http://www.Microsoft.com/products/works/downloads.mspx
    b. open the downloaded file and install it.
    c. once the update is installed, restart the computer and check the result.

    You can also get in touch with the support of Microsoft Works team to see if there are other options to install the update without using the disc:http://www.microsoft.com/products/works/support.mspx
