DV7-4143EA - upgrade Possible hard drive with SSDS. Can I upgrade this laptop with an SSD?
I replace the HDD with a SSD.
This laptop is able to run an SSD, with its limited processor AMD and BIOS?
If so, any recommendations?
Neil
OCZ also have good records but one you mentioned is a SATA III a. You never get the full speed of SATA III, but this should work as a SATA II drive...

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
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.

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?

FYI - I have used the adapter is even cheaper now

Pavilion dv7-4000 1 replacement of hard drives with more
I have a dv7-4000 series double portable hard drive running windows 7 64 bit. One of the drives died and I am looking to buy a replacement and want to upgrade, but I'm not sure if I have 2 hard disks of different sizes.
(1) can I replace factory bad HARD drive with a larger 320? (I'd then 1 factory 320 GB drive and 1 car again, more)
(2) is the brand of the material of hard drive (Toshiba courses)?
(3) are there any specific specs I should look for or avoid (ie. rpm, Gbps, etc.)?
Hi wweksjk! : Yes, you can have 2 HD with different capacities for example on my PC of Xion MSI, which was built in 2006, I had 2 HD Western Digital, respectively 160 GB & 250 GB divided into 3 partitions
the brand name is not as important as the number of turns faster the car turns your computer will be faster
also look at the size of the buffer on the disk as well because the more it will speed up the boot time as well
However install a new drive as boot drive will be complex, but if you follow the instructions that come with the HD installer it is possible
for example, a 7200 RPM drive is faster than a 5400 RPM, but not as fast as a model k 10 or 15 k
Good luck
hope this helps to & help
Happy holidays!

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.

The hard drive in this model is the same size as SSD 2.5 drive "?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. -

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!

Do need me an adapter to replace the hard drive with an SSD
I want to know before I get out my drive if I need adapter to replace my old hard drive with a drive way SSD SSD drive to connect directly to a MacBook pro six, one? Or do I need an adapter for the interface on the SSD
SATA SSD have the same footprint than conventional hard drives (some may be thinner than 2 mm, but the closing screws are adjusted for difference) Although adapters can be provided, you must not use in your MBP. I installed three SSD in my Mac without adapters.
Ciao.

Hello
Can I use an external hard drive from 1 to 2 to my laptop? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi @ptr1959w!
Yes, you can use an external hard drive on your laptop - just connect via one of the USB ports on your machine, partition and format it in disk management, and you should be ready to go. Here is an article with the steps you can follow to do this:

I have a HP 15 Notebook PC with no dvd player recently sent me the CD of HP system recovery. I don't have an external dvd drive. What I have is a portable Toshiba Satelight with Windows 7 and a good dvd player. I also have an external hard drive to 500 GB. I thought maybe I could copy the disks on the external hard drive with the Toshiba dvd player. Then attach the external hard drive to my HP 15 laptop by usb port and install Hp recovery disks from the external hard drive. Is someone can you please tell me if HRT is possble. Thank you very much.
Have seen others try this and fail miserably. I also saw a few attempt to copy on USB stick with the same end result.
Save yourself a lot of grief and borrow or buy a USB CD/DVD drive.

Is it possible to copy my original files with a backup hard drive with re-import them?
I'm doing a copy of external backup everything on a hard drive, I can work from. I saved the backup catalog on a new hard drive and I can copy my originals to the new hard drive outside of lightroom, but I don't know how to get lightroom to be able to work the new copy. What I have to re-import everything? I also tried 'Find missing folder' but then she moves the folder to the new hard drive and I don't have two copies of work.
I use Lightroom4. My original files are stored on an external hard drive. I don't know of anyway to copy files into lightroom.
Thank you
Since then, we discussed backups... I think it's a mistake to use your backups of your photos and use your backup catalog files. In my opinion, when you perform a backup, you should leave here on intact and unused backup disk, for ever and ever, except in the case where your originals get destroyed or damaged somehow.
So, if you really want to use your backups in the way you described - don't. Very bad idea. And if you go ahead and do it anyway, then Yes, you must re-bind the missing files every time you go.

Hello
I have a 2012 end mac mini, hearts, i7, 1 TB. Recently, I got a SMART error, and now it has deteriorated further. I have a time machine backup. I have another HARD drive with the operating system. So if the internal HARD drive failed completely, I'm sure.
I want to upgrade to a 1 TB SSD. I have contacted apple and their prices are extremely high. I price $ 250 - $400 for the three following models: are they compatible?
(1) transcend: Transcend 1 TB MLC SATA III 6 Gb/s 2.5 "Solid State Drive 370
(2) SanDisk Extreme PRO 960 GB SATA 6.0 GB/s 7 mm height 2.5 - Inch Solid State (SSD) with 10 year warranty drive
(3) critical BX200 960 GB SATA 2.5 inch internal Solid State Drive
If they are compatible, please let me know on the reputation of those marks. Seagate is also quite good in my experience, I can look to their SSD equivalent also. Thanks a ton.
All are compatible and should work correctly. I would opt for the SanDisk or Crucial. I failed to transcend everything simply because I know little about the company.

Can satellite A100-847 - I replace my current HARD drive with a SATA2 HARD drive?
Hello
I am currently using a Satellite A100-847 with a 100 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive. I plan to change with a Western Digital WD2500BEKT 250 GB SATA2 16 MB 2.5 inch laptop hard drive 7200 TRM. Is it possible to replace my current HARD drive which is SATA with a one SATA2?
And if not what is my best option upgrade of the mine to a HARD fast (7200 RPM) disc?
Hello!
Yes, you can replace the current drive with a SATA2 HARD disk. You already have a SATA interface, and this means that you can use each HDD with SATA interface.
I don't know Mr. but as far as I know the Satellite A100 cannot use the speed of SATA1. This means that the new HARD drive maybe won't work with SATA1 speed but there is no significant difference in performance.
A HARD drive with 7200 RPM is really fast, but don t forget it produces more heat and needs more electric battery. A HARD disk at 5400 RPM is perhaps fast enough for you?
Good bye
