Elitbook 840 G1: HP Elitbook 840 g1 - M.2 SSD slot

Hello!

As you can see from the image below, I am after a compatible disc SSD m2 (ideally 256Go). I selected in red the single 'hole' in the connector as the largest part of the SSD M2 card I see online have two "holes".

Any recommendations would be much appreciated.

Thank you and best regards,

Julien

Hello

Please see the next (page 36):

But it looks like it is designed to support the Intel SRT (unless your machine has been built by the end of 2013). Please check the following discussions: many people also try):

  • 840 M6u35aw G2 #abh: 840-G2 & problem of ssd Crucial mx200 m2

    Hello

    Just installed al new mx200 m.2 crial in my 840 G2 ssd. He appears in the BIOS and when I use Crucial Customer Executive Storage but not in windows Explorer. Someone knows why or how to fix it?

    Thank you

    Is there anything on this Crucial SSD even?  As an operating system or data files?  You can see in the Bios?

    If the SSD is still empty, you may need to set up to be used with the help of configuration for the Crucial SSD utility if they a.

    Or if Crucial does not provide such a utility, try to initialize the drive in the Control Panel/computer management/storage.

    Once the disk initialized, then you can format or let Windows when you install an OS on the SSD drive windows.

    Hope this helps you.  I am a simple consumer, not an employee of HP or any expert in any case.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx - do not pick up the Samsung 840 Evo SSD for clean installation

    Hello

    Laptop model: HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx

    I bought a new Samsung 840 Evo 500 GB SSD and going on to replace the main HARD drive. Tried to install Windows 7 Ultimate on it using the USB bootable Win 7, it loads the installation and starts ok and then he asks to load the driver for any device and gives you an analysis of the option to see if there is any storage device to select for installation. It clearly shows that it does not pick up the SSD.

    Unfortunately the bios insydeh20 V3.5 has no possibility of even check if it is detected or so.

    What do you think is the problem? The BIOS update would solve this issue? or is there any other work around that.

    Thank you

    Mike

    Before I went ahead with the method you suggested, I tried updating the Bios with the latest version and voila... system picked up the SSD and all is well now.

    Thank you

  • 17-j111sl and Samsung SSD 840 EVO HP

    I just buy a HP Envy series, after discovering that two places are available for the HD box, I was wondering what were the procedures to install a 840 EVO primary HD SSD Samsung (then with the OS and programs launch frequent thereon) and use the HARD drive I gave with the computer as a second HD for storage of static data.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    The first thing you need is a second disc hard caddy/cable here:

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&cPath=2_5&products_id=542

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=page&ID=39

    Since the product number you give is for a portable computer released in Italy I will assume that you live in Italy. Newmodeus.com is supplied in Italy. I couldn't find this unit on eBay Italy. I know there are European dealers for the products and supports similar 2d for the hard disk of the aftermarket, but prices tend to be not better than buy newmode and pay international shipping.

    The best way to get the software on the original disk SSD is a clone and once you have the hard drive kit 2d, you can make the clone entirely inside the laptop. Put the SSD in the second span to start the clone and then swap the drives.

    For cloning, there are a lot of programs out there. I like to use Acronis True Image Home 2014. @erico has also published a guide to cloning here:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/hardware-upgrades-replacements/how-to-upgrade-your-notebook-to-a-SATA-2-5-quot-SSD/TD-p/4563352/page/2

    Depending on the size of the SSD you buy, you will not be able to use the recovery DVD or player is Recovery Manager for the thumb. So, you can skip this part of the thread.

  • Qosmio G30-102 not start after the SSD upgrade

    I have 2 x 840 Pro 256 GB SSD to install in my machine which usually runs two drives independently.

    I used the software to Clone of Samsun to clone my C drive which has XP on it.

    The cloning was successful.

    On the installation of the new SSD, it will be now does not start and keeps cycling to the F12 boot screen.

    I tried all the options without result.
    Any ideas?

    Hello

    I had a similar experience with an upgrade of the SSD.
    I used exactly the same software and has been able to clone partitions of HARD drive to SSD drive and my cell phone did not start the system from the SSD system partition.

    I figured out that the C: partition on the SSD was not marked as active.
    How I solved this?

    Well, I put the SSD in the 2.5 external USB enclosure. Then I booted the laptop using the old HDD. I connected the external SSD drive to the USB port.
    Then I went to Windows disk management and could activate the C partition on the SSD drive.
    Then I replaced the HARD drive with SSD and could boot. :)

  • Portege R700 - SSD installation: a succesfull and the other failed

    For what it's worth I just short wants to share my learnings SSD:

    1. I bought a Newton GTX 500 GB Corsair for my R700 (i5, W7). Looked to work ok after normal cloning, but often the PC froze and I couldn't restart it. Only way to continue was to force its rotation down with the power button. I've always had this message when starting:

    + PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable for. +
    + PXE - M0F: exit Intel Boot Agent. +
    + Insert system disk in drive. +
    + Press any key when ready... +.

    Only way to go was to force down once again and then the Pc may start and open windows. I've updated all the drivers I could think of-including Intel - but the problem persisted. Please note that this happened at the time with no systematic behavior, at least what I could understand.

    2. I got cold feet for this behavior and I bought a new R930, exchanged relative small with a bigger Samsun 840 Pro 500 GB SSD HARD drive. No problem, works very quickly and smoothly!

    3. I can now reinstall Windows 7 on the older R700 with the Corsair SSD - and now this machine works without any of the oldest problems, but I Don t understand.

    Any of you have seen something similar?
    / Anders

    > Anyone of you seen something similar?

    Of course. PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable error is displayed because the laptop has attempted to boot from LAN.
    Usually, this happens because of faulty HARD drive.

    > 2. I got cold feet for this behavior and I bought a new R930, exchanged relative small with a bigger Samsun 840 Pro 500 GB SSD HARD drive. No problem, works very quickly and smoothly!

    I n t have this laptop Portege but I ve bought the same shape of my laptop Tecra SSD drive.
    After cloning, the data on the drive to SSD drive using the software, which was part of the SSD HARD drive package, start the laptop much more quickly. I m very satisfied.

  • Discount HPE 490

    My HPE 490 has disks of 2 x 1.5 GB of system, in RAID 1 configuration

    managed by Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology.

    The computing power of this machine is more of

    sufficient for my needs but the disk space and performance

    are not.  I also had a few incidents that suggest

    It might be time to think about replace those spinning

    discs - they worked without interruption for nearly 4

    years.

    I was counting on the passage of Windows on a SSD & Exchange

    the disks.  The warnings?  What about using 2 x 4 TB drives

    as a replacement instead of 1.5 TB drive?  Will be the Intel

    product to mirror 4 disks?  He warns against the use of volumes

    greater than 2 TB, as the readers of 'system', but does not seem to

    explain what "system":-I think that the limit of 2 TB

    is for the Windows partition runs on boots & is inherent

    in Windows 7, but there is a good chance that I don't have that

    right.  No opinion/experience appreciated.

    Cecinit, welcome to the forum.

    If ever you are using an SSD, you'll never go back to a hard drive.  As you can see in my signature, I installed a Samsung 840 EVO 500 GB, SSD, in my HP computer.  I had to use an adapter to install the SSD 2.5 "in a 3.5 drive Bay".  It was an easy task with the help of Samsung Data Migration software.  I left the installed hard drive as it was when I bought the computer.  Then, connected the SSD to a spare SATA port in the computer and clone the HDD to the SSD.  Using the Samsung software made it easy, as I said.  Once the HARD drive has been cloned, I disconnected the HARD drive and started the SSD.  It worked the first time.

    Regarding the replacement of the HARD disk, the maximum hard disk supported by Windows 7 is 2 TB for the boot drive.  Here's what you have to do to use a hard drive of 4 TB with Win 7: in order to use a read more than 2 TB, you will need an operating system that can partition and format this disk. Windows 7, Vista, Windows XP (64 bit), Mac OS x 10.4.x (Tiger), Mac OS x 10.5.x (Leopard), Mac OS x 10.6.x (Snow Leopard) and Mac OS x 10.7.x (Lion) all have this capability across the Table to partition GUID (GPT). The GUID partitioning scheme has the ability to score inside and outside and external hard drives far beyond 2 TB size.

  • Satellite L70-A-143 - HDD - SDD drive replacement

    Hello

    It is possible to replace the HARD drive in my L70-A-143 by 840 EVO (MZ-7TE500) SSD?

    Both are 2.5 "drives, but what compatibility?

    Thanks for the replies

    This upgrade is not problematic and you can do it. I upgraded my laptop older with similar SSD and it works without problem.

    Please note: before that, you create a recovery (DVD or USB) media. With the help of this recovery media, you can install original recovery image on new SSD.

  • Recovery deleted from Y500 partitions

    Hi all
    I bought a Y500 a few months ago and I bought a Samsung 840 Pro 256 GB SSD with her. Mine did not come with mSATA SSD 16 GB to cache so I decided to replace the disk HARD original 1 TB with a 256 GB SSD. I also had a copy of Windows 8 Professional that I bought for my office. Since I was not on my desk, I decided to go Pro 8 to the Y500. And he wouldn't let me format and reinstall, I get an error stating that "product key doesn't match any available to install Windows images. Enter a different product key. Being the fool that I am, I cloned my HDD to SSD with Acronis True Image Home. Then I glued the SSD in my laptop computer and then selected repair my computer after starting the drive Pro 8. And from there, I selected option reset my PC. Then, once it resets, it became extremely fast and stuff. And features to add to Windows 8 option I entered the Productkey, I had with 8 Pro, and allowed me to upgrade. Then once the 8.1 update came out I've updated immediately. Now for these days, my laptop received lag. So I decided to give to zero once again. And now when I try, it indicates that the required recovery partition is missing, I don't remember remove all of the partitions I cloned the drive perfectly and had also been able to reset once before. Anyway, now my 1 TB HARD drive is in my PS3 and I'm stuck with a Y500 lag that takes 20 seconds to start on an SSD and trying to find a way out of this mess. Is it possible to get the recovery disks? And Lenovo will be willing to help me, because I probably cancelled the guarantee by swapping hard drives? I desperately need help with this, any suggestions are welcome. My Y500 is the model that has a single 2 GB GT750 NVIDIA and a processor intel core i7 3632QM.

    Hi TheShawnMiranda,

    To fix the "the product key entered don't match any available to install Windows images. Enter a different product key "error, you can:"

    1 create a Windows 8 Pro UEFI-bootable Installer (see this guide)

    2. Once done, open Notepad, put the following information:

  • T430s battery problems

    So, my previous thread (http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T430S-Microsoft-ACPI-Compliant-Control-Meth... got no response. I want to be updated, however, as I'm positive, I can't be the only person who always ran to this.

    Situation: my T430s keeps giving me a safe to delete the 'Compatible Microsoft ACPI Control method battery' message (safe to remove the battery) despite my no Files this behavior knowingly. In addition, strangely / in this connection, my Lenovo Power Manager shows a second battery being connected - there is only one. The battery is showing that "second battery: Condition ' mistake".

    Real battery is charged / wedges cool / works normally. Computer always gives me this error when it is connected to current alternative without battery in the system.

    I'm running two software programs that manage / handle power: magician of Samsung (for my Samsung SSD) and Lenovo Power Manager.

    I am convinced that this false message 'second battery' is the key to the problem. I have contacted Lenovo support and I'm under warranty and they sent me some recovery disks (should be here soon) to try and isolate the potential problem of the software, but I think that it is hardware, because I've been running this setup since I got my laptop with zero problems. If the software reset does not solve (reset), then they will send a technician to replace the motherboard. Messages appear to be related to the movement of the computer and parts... but I'm just confused.

    Does anyone else have this problem before? Would love to insight.

    Installation program:

    1 years, T430s Intel Core i5

    840 Samsung 256 GB SSD pro series

    Stock HDD from lenovo (canned)

    Memory 1 DIMM 8 gb Crucial Ballistix

    Standard Wh 33,57 lenovo battery

    So. Here is why none of this made sense: the problem is that one of the screws of the casing was released into the ultrabay slot and touched the power between the cart and the mobo connector. In addition, some Ribbon was on it (?). Incredible. I'm sorry for my stupid question.

    Which explains all the problems of sensitivity or prosecuted strange problems/utlrabay with the DVD - RW.

  • The CQ60 430SA with SSD upgrade

    Hello

    After much trawling the internet and various research I hope someone can help me to confirm if I can finish the next upgrade.

    I have a CQ60-430SA Windows 7 Professional 64 bit stock, with 4 GB of RAM, AMD Turion x 2 64-bit processor (VERY hot) and in recent months have gone through various scans of the system in order to limit start them all programs, Windows updates and various other background programs that made the laptop almost completely insensitive.

    He is now back some of its speed of origin but I always find it very laggy and hesitate to open programs, etc..  After reading on the SSD and performance increases that they can bring can tell me if I can replace the Toshiba MK2555GSX ATA HDD currently installed with an evo of 840 Samsung 256 Gb SSD?  I have also reviewed the upgrade of processor Turion Ultra ZM-82, I know to be compatible from the manual of maintenance (below), but are not convinced that he will give me a huge increase in performance (any thoughts?)

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

    If I can replace the hard drive with an SSD I also remove the laptop and replace the thermal paste on the processor (already cleaned the fan).  The laptop also needs a battery and external battery to replace.

    Thank you very much in advance for any advice given.
