    HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

    I want to put in a 60 GB SSD into the CD slot and want to see how fast it will support as this will be used for the Cache

    Thank you

    The published information is not explicit; He says only: SATA for the expansion Bay while the main hard drive Bay expressly says SATA-III. However, given that this isn't just an optical drive Bay, but also a general 'Bay expansion', it is safe to assume it of on the same SATA bus as main drive and is a SATA III interface.

    Data sheet

    6470b is also supposed to have a slot for a WSSD mSATA, but he is not described in the Manual:

    Obviously the WSSD would work better for cache but you can use a 60 gig SSD in an expansion bay for both cache adapter. Even if the connection is SATA-II, it will be much faster to work for a cache of acceleration.

  • IBM Thinkpad with XP Home Edition preinstalled but no XP installation CD. Will need to re - install XP from CD after planned hard drive upgrade. How can I create a CD to install XP from the installed system?

    Hi, I bought an IBM Thinkpad with XP Home Edition pre-loaded in 2005 (the XP key sticker is on the bottom of the laptop), but did not receive an XP installation CD - I understand, it is a common practice. I want to improve the internal hard drive (for a bigger) then you will need to re - install XP from CD. They tell me that there is a way to create the XP (on the CD burner) installation installation CD but have no idea how. I can't imagine I'm the only person to have had this problem. Can you tell me where I can find the instructions how to do this please? Any help is welcome. Thank you very much.

  • Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello!

    I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
    I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
    Thank you very much for your help!

    These are the specs on the site
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

    Hey Buddy,

    In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

    Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
    Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
    I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

  • Satellite A40-151 Possible HARD drive upgrade

    Hello

    are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

    RPM
    buffer
    Number of PINS
    Type of the ATA

    I was watching a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST980815A, if this helps answer the question.

    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!

    I can read only half of my product key due to wear, but I need to reinstall xp on my hard drive again. How can I get the key?

    If you can still boot your old disk, you can use a program such as one of them:

    KeyFinder: <> http://www.magicaljellybean.com/ >
    Belarc Advisor: <> http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html >

    to read the key out of your old system.

    Also note that if you have a system OEM and the OEM installation disks, the key can be incorporated in the installation discs and can not be necessary when your reinstalling Windows.

  • hard drive: I want to back up files on my hard drive of diving, how do you do that?

    I want to back up files on my hard drive of diving, how do you do that?

    You can use a hard drive, but it is not the drive on which the system or the boot is running.  If you have a second drive in your system that contains system information or startup, you can use this disk for backups.  The wizard backs up (Start / Control Panel / backup and restore) will guide you through the process and provide you with the options you can choose to send the information - which should include this disc hard if it meets the requirements more fully covered in the following article.

    Here's a FAQ on the backup and restore that can be useful to some of your questions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions.

    Here is an article that describes the process of backup and restore in Vista: http://netsecurity.about.com/od/secureyourwindowspc/ss/vistabackup.htm.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Hi I'm looking to upgrade my iMac 2007 to a MacBook Pro that I can keep the iMac as an external hard drive is so how?

    WWhat should I do to keep all my photos and music files without having to complete my new mac book

    You can keep your iMac, but this isn't a very effective solution, if you just want to use it for storage. Sell and buy two external hard drives, one for extra storage and the other for a Time Machine backup drive that I speculate that you have not.

    I'll do an upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7. I will be installing Windows 7 on a new empty hard drive. I want to keep my bookmarks Firefox and Ad Ons. What is the best way to do it. Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    The best thing for you to do is to make a backup of your Firefox profile. It is a folder that stores bookmarks and Add-ons that you can then add to the reinstalled Firefox on your new operating system.

    Learn you more about the Firefox profile folder, how to backup and restore, here.

    I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look at in another option for you.
