G6-2301ax: g6-2301ax hdd upgrade to ssd.
last 2months.my labtop(g6-2301ax) is so slow (always the start-up time more than 2 minutes and runnig so slow program) that I intend to level hdd to ssd (samsung 850 evo) so I 3questions.
1. This ssd comparible with my labtop?
2.slow - operation problems relationship with hard disk or other hardware (processor, memory, etc...)?
The SSD is compatible. Difficult to say why the laptop is so slow. The A8 processor should be sufficient. 4 to 8 GB RAM upgrade might be a good idea, too. Before you spend money on hardware upgrade, however, I run a complete diagnosis of the hardware test in the diagnosis of UEFI by typing esc or F2 as you power and proceed to "diagnoses" and run all the tests.

Portege R700 - 15U HDD upgrade to SSD using recovery media
Hello
The installed HARD disk was 320, he developed surface errors.
I decided that I would upgrade to an SSD. I got a 64 GB m4.
I swapped the drives and booted from the recovery DVD. He gave an installation option. Selected, then it opens a command prompt where it starts to partition the drive, everything ok, until it copies the files. It errors with "CRC error or HARD drive.
It is, with the resumption of Toshiba, there is more than 64 GB? How I choose partition sizes?
Thank you

Hey Buddy,
And now your problem is solved or how to understand your second assignment?
Is that recovery disk can also restore the factory settings on another SSD or HARD disk. There is no problem and 64 GB should be enough.
These CRC errors could be linked to the SSD itself have you looked for an update of the firmware on the page of manufacturing SSD?
Have you updated the BIOS? -
Inspiron 530 main HDD Upgrade to SSD
I have an Inspiron 530 I put Windows 7. I thought that, rather than trying to upgrade the operating system, I would like to add a new drive to do a clean install of 7 on and make my player existing secondary drive for data. Following the same process of thought, I thought I'd go with a Solid State Drive for the primary drive would give an additional performance gain.
Anyone know of any "Pitfalls" that wanted me to use an SSD as my main drive on my 530?
Hi Dhorlo, all hard disks are now plug ' don't play, which includes the new discs SSD, so you won't have any problems using this drive on a 530.

Change HDD to the SSD, what are the options?
Hi guys, new to the forum, I just bought a thinkpad x130e during a sales event on one of the local retailer, pretty excited, because I like the rugged design.
I am looking to upgrade to 320G HDD for one SSD 128G... but I have no installation disc 7 windows very practical, so, what are the options for me to install the operating system (windows 7).
I don't know if there is a way to transfer the whole of the SSD HARD drive? is there a trick to perform? or quite simply, I just bought the new copy of windows?
COS, I noticed that I have a windows7 pro product key at the bottom of my thinkpad, I kinda don't want to lose money.
Help, please...
You don't need to buy another copy of Win7. You will need
1 SSD. It has to be is not 7mm thick, the most common 9.5 mm thick.
2 USB box for your HARD drive,
3. software to "clone" the content of your disk to your SSD. Acronis True Image is a well-respected package that does this. There are also a few free utilities that can do this, however, I'm not familiar with them.
Procedure:
1. move the HARD disc on the outer envelope.
2 put the SSD in the X130e.
3 reboot from the HARD disk. (You need to interrupt the boot with the blue ThinkVantage button to specify).
4. install Acronis (or equivalent).
5 RIP clone disk. You will have to tell the software how you resize partitions because you go to a smaller drive.
6 restart from SSD.

Pavillion DV6215CA: HARD drive upgrade to SSD
Hello
I want to change my HDD for one SSD Kingston V300 120 G. I think that my SATA controller is ver 1.0 (1.5 Gb/s) but I'm not sure. The SSD is ver 3.0 (6 Gb/s) with backward compatibility with ver 2.0 (3 Gb/s).
Does anyone know the NVA of the controller on the DV6215CA or if it is possible to put a SSD in this notebook?
Thank you
Hello:
Your laptop is a mobile intel 945 chipset series which only supports sata 1 (1.5 Gbps).
For what it's worth, I recently installed and Intel 535 120 GB SATA III (6.0 Gbps) SSD in my notebook of professional HP nc6400 with the same chipset 945 like yours and it worked very well.
The laptop is much more sensitive, even if the drive runs only 1/4 of its ability to transfer.

Hello. I own a dv6-6b19ev. I have a year and a half and im more then happy with my laptop. Its just great.
The last days im thinking to replace the 1 TB of HARD drive (5400rpms) to a 1 TB SSD (Samsung 1 TB SSD 840 Evo Series 2.5 SATA III)
The SSDS works or not? In the manual, I have seen that it can support only 160 GB SSD up to, but I don't know if the new firmware can support larger SSD.
Any help will be appreciated.
It is not as simple by reversing the legacy HDD and an SSD. If you are familiar with using the diskpart utility to prepare the SSD and have your HP usb media recovery key, then you can do it.

Lenovo x 240 HARD drive upgrade to SSD
Hi all
Need some advice. I recently bought a Lenovo x 240 1 TB HDD + 16 GB mSATA. I did some research and found that the 1 TB is a 5400 RPM one. I find that the Setup is a bit disappointing. When I up my laptop when watching videos, even gently, I noticed that the video crashes, stops or is interrupted then I think to replace the HDD with a SSD.
A couple of questions, please.
1. any suggestions for the SSD? who is compatible, what isn't? I understand that one SATA3?
2. If I replace the HARD drive, I'll be able to restore everything? How can I migrate my Windows for the new SSD 8.1?
Any suggestion is appreciated. I love the 240 x, if I could just improve performance a bit, so it'll be perfect.
Thanks in advance guys / Lenovo team.
It is useful in case you drop your laptop; It reduces the risk of the hard disk is damaged. Don't know about the details, but its power consumption is expected to be negligible.
This is a comprehensive article on the alignment of 4K:
http://us.hardware.info/reviews/4583/how-to-copy-HDD-to-SSD-with-correct-4k-alignmentAlthough the tool he recommends is certainly not the only tool capable of doing the job.
Assuming that you use VLC to play video, a better fix for the video problem itself would be to increase this value to something like 5 or 10 seconds:

You can upgrade to an SSD.
The simplest method is to use an SSD as the Corsair Force 3 and don't forget that you buy the kit of migration.
The migration kit comes with cloning software and a usb to SATA power cable that connects again SSD.
It is recommended that you purchase and SSD that is approximately 256 GB in quality if you can find one that is affordable.

Hello
This notebook is without a doubt SATA III. The size is more or less in your pocket. I prefer Corsair or readers Intel but Samsung and Kingston were also a few good products. I generally recommend buying any SSD with SandForce SATA controllers that readers have faster speed writing and in my opinion even better reliability.

OEM PC upgraded with SSD, is back on the HARD drive, now 'infringement '.
Hello
A few years ago, I bought a cheap "emachines" for parents. To speed it up, I recently replaced the HDD with a SSD former and re-installed windows from scratch since an ISO downloaded from Digital River. I forgot if it is 32-bit or 64-bit. I called the helpline automated from key OEM cannot be activated online and everything went well.
A few weeks later the PC is regularly crashing, which I suppose is a problem with the SSD drive. Then I advise them to put the old hard drive back, they have carried out. Windows complains now that it is not authentic.
Apart from re - install from scratch, I can do to convince windows that OEM key is always authentic? It is still used with the same motherboard and according to this article on PC pro, the key is tied to the motherboard and it is perfectly fine to change the hard drive.
Thank you very much!
Jonathan.

looking to upgrade to SSD
found v4 Crucial ssd of 32 GB with support for install
you wonder if this will be fine as primary drive and keep the 1 TB drive already installed as storage device
price looks ok
any advice or assistance would be appreciated
Do not forget that this system can work at 6 GB/s and the v4 can only run at 3 GB/s so an m4 would be better.
This system has an mSATA port which is probably unoccupied. Also, I think that 32 GB is too little too small to install a Windows 7 operating system, I managed to install the operating system and office on a 64 GB we (my documents and files are elsewhere) and it is a boost for space; If you can afford it, I'd recommend the m4 SSD 128 GB mSATA: http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=050B0AA0A5CA7304
Such a small disc can function as a Disk Cache, but it is more worth than his worth to implement.

X100e upgrade to SSD - Apricorn EZ Gig II Fail
X100e, W7 Pro 32. I'm upgrading to a concert of 80 X 25-M Intel SSD. I tried to Apricorn EZ Gig II cloning software and USB cable. (Original in the computer drive and the new drive connected to the USB.) When I installed the SSD, it wouldn't start. I don't know if it's due to problems of partition. (I does not change any of the original scores.)
What is the easiest or best upgrade to SSD? I couldn't find step by step instructions. TIA.
Hello
Good point, Yangorang. While the SSD is seen by the operating system as having "leads" and "sectors", information on SSDS are available as if it applied to DRAM in 4KiB pages (4 096 bytes). If the SSD is partitioned so that departure of the disk volumes do not correct align, the SSD controller ends up having to perform several queries IO to access value of a sector of data because the information is stored on two pages of DRAM on the SSD. At least, I think that this is how it works.
Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows 7 handle automatically alignment of the handle for SSD (like new ' format Advanced' hard drives that use 4KiB sectors instead of 512 bytes) doing a clean install of the operating system should do cela a non-issue.
However, you can perform a manual realignment operation to move the limits of the information stored on an SSD so that sectors and the pages correctly line up between them.
There is an excellent analysis of the question, as well as instructions on how to solve it here on the support forum for the supplier, OCZ, RAM and an SSD.
Kind regards

iMac 14.2 HDD upgrade SSD external / internal
I have an iMac of end of 2013 with a 1 TB HARD drive. I'm looking to upgrade to a Samsung SSD, because I believe that the HARD drive is really slow. I have searched online for the best solution for this.
Does anyone have the answers to the following questions:
How it would effect the speeds, if my boot drive has been installed on an external SSD and internal HDD is used to store files?
An external SSD Thunderbolt would be faster than USB 3.0? Where's the best price to buy these items?
How Apple charge for this upgrade? What's hard to do it yourself with the right kit from OWC, bearing in mind I have some experience by removing the PC? http://www.megamac.com/Collections/Components/Products/OWC-Digital-Thermal-Senso r-with-installation-tools-for-imac-27-20...
I really feel the drive HARD don't disappoint the computer and with the benefit of hindsight, I would have been for a different option.
Any ideas would be very appreciated.
I use an external Thunderbolt sled made by Seagate for a single SSD. Around $140, I think. Search on Amazon. I/O speeds are almost that of a flash drive SSD internal.
How to use an SSD with your HARD drive
If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do.
After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume.
Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder.
Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content.
Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it.
