Envy 15-j051sa mSata SSD Cache TS

Envy TS 15-j051sa mSata SSD Cache for the 1 TB 5400 HGST HTS541010A9E680.

The manual States "Support for the SSD drive 24-GB mSATA (not available on computer models equipped with system - 16834 memory or 12288-Mo)". As I have all the conditions, Intel processor, 8 GB of ram, the question is can I just install it and everything works as if by magic?

Or what I need to do anything about it, or to perform any installation? I noticed Intel RST is running and that the system is working normally.

Any help or experience would be helpful (apart from the disk of 1 TB of pit and replace it with a large SSD!).

Thank you.

OK, for someone else to end up here

It worked for me:

  • Bought a 24 GB SSD mSata off eBay (very cheap).
  • Make sure that it is the type of partition MBR (I used an external box with Mini PCI-E to SATA 22Pin mSATA).
  • Make sure that the Intel Rapid Start technology is disabled in the Bios. (Appears only if the mSata is installed).
  • Windows 8 (.1) boot in SafeMode (this is where I'm wrong).
  • Run the Intel Rapid Storage Technology-> Performance-> activate acceleration.
  • Reset (it works!)
  • Activate the technology Intel Rapid boot in the BIOS (I don't know if it improves things, seems to work OK without him)

A start power button to start screen for ready office is 17-18 seconds. Note that I have several services running SQL 2008 R2 Server and all the HP utilities installed as new.

  • HP Envy 15-j002eg mSATA SSD update

    Hello people I'm planing to buy this beautiful model, it has a nice card but lacks in the part of the HARD drive.
    It comes with 12 GB of RAM. Now, I am planning to buy an mSATA SSD of 24 GB or more and put it in the slot mSATA for thing Intel Rapid Storage for max etc. I saw him really increase the speed of the HARD drive performance upward loading times, etc. But I saw somewhere that it cannot work with 12 GB of RAM on this model? Is it true or not? Thanks for helping me!

    You don't find it in the BIOS, but if you use Magic Jelly Bean you can extract a validated/activated copy running on the computer. You must never post again. If you install from a Windows OEM 8 DVD the key Code will be just placed in the operating system and magically valid and active automatically. You will also need a USB Intel Rapid Storage driver to power the operating system during installation as storage is defined as a matrix RAID if a normal hard drive and a GSU are both present.

  • Want to Phoenix 810qe: SSD cache fails on desire 810qe

    A few weeks ago I noticed a problem (probably unrelated) which led me to look at the system event logs and I was surprised to see that I was getting all them complain about a bad block on a "hard drive" I didn't know, I had three or four errors a minute.  A little poking around revealed that it was the machine provided with 16 GB mSATA SSD cache.  Apart from the log messages, the computer seems to work very well, so I put off to worry about this.  Now, with the end of my warranty approaching, I decided to call and see if I could get a replacement.  (I'm now up to eight messages per minute).

    After a few long and frustrating calls, I finally got someone to direct me to the good test to run, who immediately said "Test failed.  Recommended replacement car. »

    Unfortunately, they are not ready to send me a replacement, and I'm not ready to wipe my machine and send it to them to play with for a few weeks, I'm looking for other solutions.

    My questions are

    1. Do I need to worry about this?  It is a cache, so, theoretically, if it fails, it could simply not give me the performance boost, but it won't actually hurt anything.  But what I saw on the web implies that there are two ways that SSD hiding can be configured ("enhanced" and "expanded") and one of them may cause corruption if it fails.  The support guy I spoke had no idea.
    2. How is it difficult to replace the SSD drive with a new one?  They don't seem to be very expensive, and looking inside the box, he's not physically difficult to replace.  But I suspect that there's more involved in the passage.
    3. If not, can I disable the cache and get him out?

    Any help will be appreciated.

    It turns out that the machine uses no hardware caching, but rather the software called ExpressCache, where my confusion of not being able to determine what mode of caching (material) that he used.  This software manufacturer said that it "maintains safe and the integrity of all data in case of failure SSD or kidnapping, as well as unclean judgments resulting from power outages.  And that seems to be the case, at least in terms of pulling on a production car and its replacement by a new.

    • 1 TB 5400 RPM SATA HDD
    • Windows 8.1 Pro x 64

    Hi all

    I intend to buy an SSD mSATA disc to my desire, because I want to improve the response time at the opening of some programs, improve the General performance of the operating system and to access files faster to big (read and write).

    I searched several readers mSATA SSD in the Web and I chose a P830 Series128GB mSATA SSD Samsung miniPCI-E disk (SATA III 6 GB/s, read 500 MB/s, writing of 400 MB/s).

    But I'm asking about what might be the best option to use the SSD mSATA so suitable as a primary drive (operating system installation and leaving 1 TB of HARD drive for storage and applications) or use it as a cache to improve overall performance.

    I do not envy for IE play or video editing, but I work with VMWare Workstation, and most of the time I need to use about 2 or 3 VM at the same time (sometimes during the recovery of a virtual Suspension of machine it take a long time, the virtual disks sizes about 40 GB). Another use for my desire is to play movies/series HD / 3D 0 and mirrored them for my Smart TV (via Miracast)

    I read something on Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT) and I heard some benefits for use with SSDS as cache memory but I am still confused the best option.

    Any suggestions you may have? It might be useful for me!

    Hello @cchoiz ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you have questions about the installation of your mSATA SSD.

    The mSATA slot is designed to only be used as a disk cache. You may experience problems starting in the mSATA SSD as drive. For this reason, I recommend to use it in its configuration provided; as a cache drive.

    The decision is entirely at you in the end. If you are able to configure the BIOS to use the mSATA as the main drive, this will help improve your system performance in addition to using it as a cache drive, especially if there is enough space to install your VMWare on the mSATA SSD after you have installed the operating system. Use it as a main drive will also increase the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I can only offer you my personal and no suggestions 'official response HP' in this regard. As previously mentioned, it is entirely up to you.

    Hopfully, this helps at least a little.

    is there any recommendation for what mSATA module which can I buy?

    Hello! Well here's how it goes

    The mSATA Slot is only used for as acceleration for A HDD Cache for better system Performance for anything else however you could reformat it for storage if you want, but 24GO is not that much

    If you want to upgrade to an SSD to replace your HARD drive you buy a SSD SATA 2.5 inch

    Now to start until the new drive, you must reformat so you have to make or buy a HP recovery for your computer media

    Yes you can.

    Although it is not as clearly as it could be looking at pages 34-36 for installation instructions.

    You have to start fast Intel software but assuming that it is installed the WSSD will be displayed in the user interface and you can select it as the training of acceleration.

    Disc SSD of 256 GB 689223-001

    I have a 80 GB SSD, which I think is an MSATA.  There are two updates listed on the HP site, but the prices are prohibitive.  How to find a compatible player to a third party?

    Please see the HP ENVY 17 - Maintenance and Service of Guide for all the different hard drive / SSD / mSata drive configurations that were available on these models. Almost any drive vendors will work on your computer and HP sources these parts from many manufacturers.

    Hard drive (does not support hard disk, cables or screw):
    1 TB 5400 RPM, 12.7 mm 638974-001
    750 GB, 7200 RPM, 9.5 mm 633252-001

    320 GB, 7200 RPM, 9.5 mm 641672-001

    SSD drive (does not support, cable or screw):
    665930-001 300 - GB SSD drive
    Disc SSD of 256 GB 689223-001

    128 GB mSATA drive 665931-001
    Drive 80 GB mSATA 665932-001

    A player mSata SSD are not the same. SSD is the same as a hard drive form factor. An SSD is going to be cheaper then a mSata disc. Your choice will depend on what you are trying to do with his computer.

    Can I install an mSATA ssd in my PC HP ENVY 17 t-k000 CTO Notebook? Added a SDS SATA 250 GB and 8 GB memory chip today but don't can find any way to add also a 250 GB mSATA SDS. I looked on the side in front and back of the system board.

    I would return the mSATA EVO 840 Samsung SSD, I bought from Newegg?

    The repair is no help whatsoever. It is said a WSSD m2 is supported 'model', but there is no picture of it in the manual or the indication when it is on the models 'select '. Those who have it use a version of m2 (connector three blades 2 not) so your Evo 840 would not work even if you had one of the models 'select '. I think that on those who have it that the port m2 is located on the motherboard so if you don't see it you are not among the selection.

    I don't think that there is no limit on that. I think that whatever it is upwards to 500 GB will certainly work and probably same disks up to a 1 to. Samsung is a very popular brand with the Evo Series discs / Pro. I would go for one of them.
