• Pavilion DV6 3000 Entertainmet: Need help to install an SSD for my laptop

  Hello everyone, I want to get a SSD for my notebook to use as first HDD and system C, so I can have a better communication and speed faster for the system (like rendering, export audio & video).
  I can do in my HP Pavilion DV6 3000 entertainment? What type of SSD can adapt to the system?
  Running on Windows 10 (recently updated), Intel i5 M520 @2.4 GHz, Ati Radeon 1 Gb HD, 4 GB DDR3 Ram... HARD DRIVE 320 GB

  I don't want to talk negatively about a manufacturer's product, but it is a fact that we saw a few compatibility issues raised here on the Forum about an old series of SSD Crucial, the MX which is not what you're asking about. I have used other than the MX series Crucial SSD successfully, but they are not my first choice. Crucial is a very reputable company and will remain fully behind their product. If they say it is compatible you aren't risking anything to try it.

• Hard drive not detected after adding 2nd mSATA SSD for HP Envy 14 1002tx

  Hello

  I'm having a problem when adding an extra mSATA SSD for my HP Envy 1002tx model.

  The laptop comes with a 500 GB HARD drive and I see that there is a 2.5 "mSATA SSD slot under the HARD drive, so I bought the same type of SSD and installed it but when I turn on the laptop, it does not introduce yourself. I don't know why?

  I want to have an SSD for boot up the laptop and HARD drive to store animals.

  If anyone knows if there is any software I have to install in order for the laptop to recognize the SSD?

  OR

  Is - this material is defective?

  Thank you in advance!

  Remove the hard drive and try to start only with the mSATA SSD.

  Did this and it showed "No. Bootable Device Insert boot disk and press any key"

  I'm really sorry, I could not find this before, but the slot under the hard drive is not compatible with the mSATA disks. It's for WWAN modules! Your laptop is not like 4 I thought, but Envy 14 equipped with the first generation of Intel processors. Envy 14-Sandy Bridge 2000 series could be BIOS modded to make the miniPCI-e interface works with the mSATA disks but Envy 14-1000 series is not possible to change.

  Edit: 2.5 "drive 256GB solid state drive is listed as compatible.

• SSD for HP Envy dv4 5312tx

  Hello

  can I add an SSD for my hp dv4 5312tx envy?

  that one is recommended? and how do I restore my 8.1 existing windows to new SSD?

  Kind regards

  Andy

  Yes you can. Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  See page 38. The best SSD buy is a Samsung 840 Evo like this:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA29P1EC5222&cm_re=samsung_840_evo_ssd-_-20-147-248-_-product

  I'm having a hard time finding information about the model you posted. Are you sure you typed it correctly? If you had Windows 8 initially I can link you to an OEM restore disk image. You can also clone the existing overhead for the SSD drive, but you should get a pretty good SSD size to make. You can also use the HP revovery DVD made from the HP Recovery Manager or you can rstore from a backup of Windows System.

  Post back if you need more specific help.

• Upgrade to SSD for HP ENVY 15 t-k000

  I'm looking to upgrade the standard hard drive Toshiba MQ01ABD100 with a Samsung 840 Evo 1 TB (1 TB 5400 rpm). When you watch videos to see how to replace, (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04330942 video shows that the hard drive is connected to the motherboard with a connector zif to adapter sata.) My question is can I unplug the old hard drive adapter and plug it into my ssd for sata 3 speed or I have to do something else being the standard disc sata hard 2. What choices do I have if I do something else?

  Hello

  SATA III is backward compatible with SATA II. I think that your machine uses SATA III. You can check yourself by using the following small program:

  (Check out, to the title of the disk controller, SATA III is 6 GB/s)

• Compatibility SSD for HP touchsmart all-in-one PC?

  Hey all, my parents have a HP Envy 23 Touchsmart all-in-one PC. The model number is 23-d117a.

  He has a mechanical hard drive 2 TB in it, and I want to replace it with an SSD for Christmas. I have no qualms with opening on the back of the PC and on the hard drive Bay to do the physical installation, and I can understand how to clone the content of the hard drive on the whole quite easily.

  I just want to know if there will be problems with compatibility. I guess most of the time a hard drive is a hard drive and that it will work as long as it uses the correct file format, but I don't know if HP has put any kind of limits on the machine that prevents him from working.

  In addition, it is less important, but if anyone can recommend a good support to the smaller SSD fit into the 3.5 HARD drive enclosure and again the line upward with the connectors, I'd appreciate it.

  Thanks for your time.

  Hello @Solidiquis,

  I understand that your question is if there are restrictions on the use of a DSS on your parents HP ENVY 23 - d117a TouchSmart all-in-One desktop PC. As much as I know there is no restriction on the use of a Solid State Drive on this computer. In fact, I found this document for computer explaining the differences. FAQ of propulsion hybrid Seagate Solid State. As for the recommendation on the necessary adapter unfortunately I can not make a specific recommendation, but I believe that everything will work. Here is an example of what you are looking for StarTech.com 2.5 "to 3.5" SATA aluminum box drive hard adapter with SSD/HDD up to 12.5 mm height.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Questions new installation HD SSD for MacBook Pro

  I followed the online instructions how to install the SSD for my MacBook Pro. I then rebooted by Mac in recovery mode and formatted the drive in Mac OS extended (journaled). It was a little bit tricky message sometimes giving such as erasure of disk failures, but eventually it worked. I selected to install the OS on this HD. The image of the OS were first shown on OS X Lion, but my current OS is El Capitan. I just figured that he was installing the original operating system provided with the mac. The installation went well but then we he had finished wen timer back to 1 hour, 46 minutes. He made several times and after 6 hours, I decided to leave and start over. The second time after erasing HD and formatting again the OS that came was El Capitan for installation so I continued. This time, the installation has been completed and at the end says "OS could not be installed on my computer, reboot and try again." On the third attempt has received a similar message from the failed to install ' year error occurred during extraction of the files in the package "Essentials.pkg." " »

  Anyone has any idea why this doesn't work or suggestions please?

  About 2 months ago I reformatted my HD original as installed latest OS El Capitan as the mac has been slow. Does have a report with questions I get on doing the same thing with another HD?

  What model of MacBook Pro?

  Which SSD model?

  You have another Mac?

  Possible causes:

  -Incompatibility of your Mac with this specific SSD. Recently, some users have reported what appears to be these incompatibilities

  -You damaged the cable flex between the drive and the system board.  It is a common problem and causes intermittent problems initially and if it's even worse the Mac will see is even more disk

  -You have an another hardware problem as RAM bad or other component.

  I'd do it

  -Run Apple Hardware Test

  Using Apple Hardware Test - Apple Support

  -Connect an external drive and install OSX on this disc and boot from this facility and see if you have any problems

  -If you have another Mac download a compatible OS x Installer for the Mac App Store and create a USB bootable using device

  and install OSX on the SSD.

  Any SSD with a box 2.5 "will be compatible with your MBP.  I recommend OWC SSD or critical based on my experience and other participants of CSA veterans.

  Installing the SSD is the same as for a traditional HARD drive.  Watch this video:

  https://eShop.MacSales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_13_unibody_early11_hd/

  You must format the SSD in Mac OS extended (journaled) disk utility.  You can use Time Machine to restore your data on the SSD.

• What SSD for early 2009 imac?

  Hello

  I have a question to choose the good ssd for my imac 7y/o (9.1) since early 2009.

  I found a few good SSD as the samsung 840 BX100 or critical, but I've also read several times that a ssd sata3 will use sata1 when installed on a sata2.

  And that is why it is better to install a sata2 ssd.

  IS that still the case today? Given that these messages are coming from 2013.

  Or is that I can put in an ssd sata3 and it will run on sata2?

  Kind regards

  Ivo

  SATA III drives that use the Sandforce controller will come back to SATA I speed if installed on a computer that uses the Nvidia MCP79 SATA controller. Samsung does not Sandforce. My Macbook in early 2009 with a Samsung 840 (pre Evo, not Pro) negotiates the SSD SATA II speed, connected to the MCP79.  OWC also still sells SATA II disks, I have one in my late 2009 iMac. I chose this drive, even if it was more expensive because OWC insisted that my model should have the Nvidia controller but in reality it has controller Intel 5 series. I didn't take my iMac except more than once.

  Confused? Yes I know...

• Please recommend an SSD for Toshiba Satellite C660D-10W

  Hi people

  I'm looking for a recommendation for an SSD for my laptop, Satellite C660D-10W

  I want to perform a clean build - I have a new licensed copy of Windows 10 Pro.

  I bought a disc of Kingston after some research online, but subsequently discovered Kingston declaring that they do not support the use of this device in my laptop.

  Toshiba customer support put me on "Topaz", which recommended product + service (though not an SSD!) cost more than 250 pounds. For that price I can get a replacement of like-for-like of the laptop under warranty!

  I'm looking for a simple option where I can buy a SSD and do the installation myself. 250 GB to 500 GB for the region of £60ish.

  Thoughts?
  Chris

  I have a Crucial SSD in my C660 - 1 7. He turned my laptop. Boots in seconds!
  They have special offers for the moment like this http://uk.crucial.com/gbr/en/satelli...-10w/CT6696741 250 GB @£ 63,59

• Add the SSD for HP Pavilion desktop computer

  Hello

  I would like to add an SSD for my HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office). I do not want to replace the existing drive, I would add a second drive.

  I have already noticed a free sata connection and a free power cable, but I didn't notice a physical position for the support and the screws etc...

  Does anyone know if there is a manual that describes the physical position for a 2nd drive in HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office)?

  Thanks in advance,

  Look at the picture below and see if your model is configured for one SSD installation.

  

  I see that your particular model is native/sold to the Netherlands.  There is a forum member that frequents this forum who lives in the Netherlands. Hmmmm that's a good guy!

• Is a good PNY CS1211 SSD for my computer?

  I own a MacBook Pro and I am wanting to upgrade the HDD with a SSD and I wonder if a PNY CS1211 SSD (480 GB) will be my fast computer. Also, I wonder if I can exchange my SuperDrive with a trolley that can contain a HDD/SSD without voiding my warranty. Please answer; Thank you very much!

  I own a 13 "MacBook Pro early 2011 2.3 GHz with 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 RAM.

  SSD drives... OWC (macsales.com) or Cruical are most recommended.  I've been running a Crucial SSD for 2 years without problem.  Samsungs have many problems reported here... maybe because of thousands used if the questions are obvious but even Samsung does not claim full compatibility Mac on their Web site.

  As for replace the Superdrive by 2nd drive... not really a 'guarantee' issue with a 2011 system that has left no guarantee.  But it is not exactly "authorized" by Apple.  You might get some resistance of Genius Bar if you take it in to... say... battery or display or the logic of Council's questions.  Probably if it was still in warranty the warranty would be void.

• What is the fastest connection that I can use for a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008?

  That IS the question. I want a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008.

  What is the fastest connection type that works?

  'External' and 'SSD' could be a problem.  SSDS are different animals of disks spinny.  Some will say that you need not trim on SSD (TRIM is a management tool to move only the ' opportunity' bytes in a block when the block of data is moved), but definitely TRIM does not work on USB or Firewire.  Not sure if the TRIM works on Thunderbolt connected readers as it does on disks SATA-path, however.

  Speed included between slower and faster, however: USB 2.0, Firewire 400, Firewire 800, USB 3.0, love at first sight.
