HDD/SSD Upgrade on dv7 - 6143cl
Hello world! I have a few questions about the upgrade of my dv7 records - 6143cl. First of all, I want to replace the original with 256 GB ssd. Is this true? And what ssd size must fit it? Secondly, I want to put 1/2/3 Tb hard drive the second vacuum for hard drive (I have cable already) what is the maximum capacity of the hard drive for the 2nd Bay, what SATA is supported and what size hard disk must be adapted it. And the last question, how do I move my win7 to a different drive correctly? (I'll be so happy if you could provide links to some HDD/SDD you will recommend me to install) Thank you very much. And salvation of the Russia!
Hi babooon:
Thank you for your inquiry.
Ee maximum size of HDD supported by your system is determined by the bios. Most systems will be discs recognized in the order of 1-8 terabyte.
Any hard drive brand meets the specifications required for the model you is acceptable.
Disk portable 5400rps.
You can consider the drive cloning.
I send you a link to a document on a third party site on the backup of your entire drive. click here.
As I am in North America, I can't not provided suggested brands of hard drive to buy.
I hope this helps.

Processor, RAM or SSD upgrade Pavillion dv7 bought 2009
This is a laptop purchased in 2009, it has a dual-core pentium cpu and amd 4650 video card.
I think the upgrade with a new ssd and perhaps new ram. I guess that's the Chipset Mobile Intel® HM65 Express, does it support a faster processor? and it is worth the money/possible to do for a noob?
I did a few pc built, no experience with laptops. But ram and ssd would be rather forward?
I also thought of a video card, this becomes hot and sound!
And freakin Vista...
Hello
DV7 is a series of hundreds of models, what is yours? Normally the upgrade RAM, CPU & HDD to SSD is a simple task, but the video card upgrade is very hard, costly impossible (or very, very, very expensive). The upgrade will not work unless you same CPU family. The following manual shows you a list of processors supported from day 1:

HP Pavilion dv6-6b78el: HP Pavilion dv6-6b78el HDD SSD upgrade
Hello
I'm interestend in the upgrade of my SSD and HDD to, to do this, I have a question.
First of all to all types of SSD less 2.5 "fit in my laptop? Second question on SSD info, I need to check something on the speed or it wont fit my real compatibility motherboard? Third and last question is about the connector, I saw in my current HARD drive, it is compatible with all types of SSD or I need to check something when you purchase it?Thank you for your time.
Good day to evryone.
Here is the Service Manual:
See pages 52 to 54 for the procedure to access the hard disk, remove and replace.
To answer your questions in order: no, your laptop is not compatible with the small mSATA readers that resemble the memory modules. The only type of SSD, you can use is a 2.5 inches wide 7 or 9.5 mm thick SATA SSD. These are the most common type and there is a confusing choice from there. My own go - to SSD is a Samsung 850 Evo:
You need to check the speed or anything like that or worry about the configuration of the BIOS, if you use Windows 7 or higher. Treat is as a hard drive. The physical package of the reader; in other words, where the connectors and the holes of mounting and the form and the size of the box itself are the same as a hard drive mechanical except that it is likely to be thinner, 7 mm instead of 9.5 mm. He always perfectly fits in the cart or the slot where the old drive.
If you need help for reinstalling software or anything else, after the return.

Satellite-C55-A-1NU - upgrade of RAM and SSD upgrade information
I have a Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1NU and I want to know if it is possible to replace the optical drive with an SSD? Can someone tell me what I need to do? What type of rack and SSD should I buy. Thank you
I also want to improve the ram memory, the laptop has only 1 slot 4 GB ddr3 1600 mhz, but is single channel. Which model should I buy to work in dual channel I use cpu-z to identify the model and it shows me hmt451s6mfr8a do I need exactly this or I can put another ty of manufacturing 2.
This upgrade with SSD is not supported by Toshiba, so everything you do is at your risk. Check this forum please. If I m remembering although some people have already posted own experiences.
I think that in most cases they ordered this caddy HDD/SSD but the drive was not recognized at all.In my opinion, you must perform these updates.
RAM
Up to 16 GB of RAM according to specification for laptop, you can put on level and on the lower part under the cover of memory, you should find two memory locations. How to change RAM is described in s. manuals check please page 72.The memory modules are compatible RAM for your laptop model:

Hello Sir/Madam,
I want to upgrade RAM and HDD (SSD) in my computer laptop HP Pavilion 15-p045TX, please answer my money issues:
I have a 64 Bit Windows 10 installed on my laptop.
Associated with RAM-
(1) I have 2 RAM slots, 1 is used with ADATA 8 GB of RAM, which is the maximum limit of RAM that I can use in my second slot (8/16)?
(2) is it expandable to Rams 2 * 16 GB (32 GB total)?
(3) can I use any brand DDR3 8 GB / 16 GB of RAM?
(4) there must be 1600 MHz? Or 1333 Mhz will also work? What is the best?
Associated with SSD-
(1) is there a limit on the size of the SSD memory support? 1 taken to support?
(2) can I use any brand SSD? Transcend SSD 370 s 250 GB and Samsung 850 EVO 250GB OK?
Linux 64-Bit installation will make a difference on Performance or questions above?

Thank you
Sandeep
Here is the Service Manual:
See page 3 of the memory card. It is said 12 GB is the maximum, but we know from experience, you can install 2 x 8 GB in total 16 concerts. No 32 GB. It must be low voltage, and if you already have a single module of 8 GB you want to duplicate its specifications. If it has 8 black blocks on the side, you need to get a module like this.
It is not easy to work on this system. You must remove the top cover to get to the hard drive Bay and remove the motherboard to add RAM. See p. 105 and 116.
Module of memory of 8 GB 693374-005
There's a 16 gig module listed, but it is for AMD laptops with a single location and will not work on your motherboard, even if you could find it.
You can install a type SATA 2.5-inch 1 TB SSD. There is no definitive list brands supported. People sometimes have problems with some specific SSD as some determinative seem to cause problems, but the Evo to Samsung 850 is a good choice with a record few if any questions.
The computer does not know if she is running only Windows or Linux and the RAM or the SSD works with Linux or Windows, or in dual boot. The Linux kernels current used in the current distributions like Ubuntu 16.04 SSD handle very well with a maximum return.

W530 - choose what size SSD upgrade strategy?
I still hesitate between two strategies of size SSD upgrade for my brand new W530.
1. an (internal) SSD + a HARD drive (internal)
- Put the original of the ultrabay DVD burner in an external enclosure (connected to the laptop with a USB cable SATA) and use when necessary
- Put the original Toshiba HDD 500 GB of the main Bay in a shopping cart, then in housing as a backup drive-ultrabay
- Buy a Crucial SSD m4 (512GB) for the main Bay and use it to drive to OS/programs and road data
2. two SSDs (internal) + a HARD drive (external)
- Put the original of the ultrabay DVD burner in an external enclosure (connected to the laptop with a USB cable SATA) and use when necessary
- Put the original Toshiba HDD 500 GB in an external case (connected to the laptop with a USB cable SATA) and use it as a backup drive
- Buy 2 m4 Crucial SSD (128 + 256 GB):
-one in the main Bay as player of OS/programs (128 GB)
-one in a basket, then in housing ultrabay as data drive (256 GB)
I also want to let you know that a 512 GB SSD is a little more expensive than a 128 GB SSD + a 256 GB SSD. Also, I like to choose the best strategy of resistance, reliability and durabilty.
Could you share with me the benefits & disadvantages for both strategies and tell me which is the best strategy for your point of view?
Thanks for your help,
Bertrand
@p1
I agree with the approach of @eos. I have configured my W520 on the same track. I have an mSATA SSD 256GB (a - Data), with a 750 GB HARD drive in the Bay of primary and a 500GB HDD in the Ultrabay slot.
The mSATA SSD is my boot device, even if I sometimes start from one of the other disks when testing new configurations.
The mSATA slot is SATA 2 don't bother me a bit. It's very fast. Sometimes, I put an mSATA SSD in an mSATA to the 2.5 enclosure and run in the Ultrabay SATA 3-speed housing. I'm hard pressed to notice the difference.
You're better off using a partition of HARD drive for data for various reasons. On the one hand, at least write cycles committed SSDS, longer it will last. Second, if your system partition is lost, your data is still intact. Third, you can save a small partition of data rather than a larger combo partion.
I love having the flexibility of two open bays using the mSATA offer slot - i.e. I sometimes swap in my optical drive in the Ultrabay slot, etc.

MacBook pro 13 inch 2012 pcie ssd upgrade
Is my mid-2012 13 "MacBook Pro compatible with PCIe SSD upgrade? I want to remove the internal optical disk and edit it in the PCIe SSD, so that I have 2 internal storage. Going to do?
Your mention of an optical drive tells me you have a MBP non-retine. PCI and PCIe SSDS are NOT compatible with your MBP. You can install a card standard 2.5 "SSD in your MBP and still experience a significant increase in performance. I suggest OWC SSD and Crucial.
Ciao.

Hello
According to the specifications of the laptop your laptop can handle with GB of RAM, but has been bundled with 2 GB memory is not possible.
http://www.Toshiba.it/discontinued-p...Tege-R500-11z/What about SSD? SSD upgrade is possible and you can use 256GB SSD for upgrade. After this system will be much faster, and you will certainly more performance and speed.

What I have to change something in the BIOS?Thanks in advance

SSD upgrade for Satellite Pro P200 (PSPB7A-01000J) - possible?
Hello world
I had a Satellite Pro P200 for 3 years and more. It came with Vista Business pre-installed, but I have successfully installed Windows 7 a few months ago.
A few months ago, I replaced the C drive in my office with a Solid State Drive and now he sings - program start and loading of the system is much faster than before.
Now I'm wondering if the SSD upgrade even could be done to my trusty P200 and if yes, what brand/model of SSD could be better. It should be 128 GB or 256 GB maybe.
Anyone else been in this way? The results? Pitfalls?
All responses appreciated.
Thank you.
Greg.
Hello
I think that it should be possible.
You must use a SATA SSD drive since the laptop supports the SATA controller.
To be honest, I never tried to upgrade the laptop with a SSD but SSD is not very different from the HARD drive and normally should not be a problem.
In some cases, an update of the firmware of SSD may be necessary but usually these firmware updates should be available on the SSD drive manufacturer support page. -

HDD/SSD location second free Qosmio X 70 - B?
I want to buy a new laptop series Qosmio X 70 - B.
but I have a question about the equipment of the Qosmio laptop...
Namely,It is a second free (EMPTY) 2.5 inch HDD/SSD slot inside the laptop to assemble the second HARD drive?
X 70 series - Had second free HARD drive location... but this new thinner than a series B series... I think that this series B may not...
I think that the Qosmio X 70 - B is peripheral different.
Its similar to Satellite L70 - B or Satellite S70 - B series and my knowledge the second HDD slot isn't taken in charge. -
Qosmio X 770 - 13F - can I built it second internal HDD/SSD?
Hello from the snowy mountains of Savoie!
My computer is a Qosmio X 770 - 13F.
I am disappointed because it runs very slowly (I have the 'windows 7 explore bar green problem'...)
I expanded the 8 GB RAM: no change to the actual speed.In this computer, there is only one hard drive (750 GB, 5400 RPM).
The evaluation of access disk hard windows is only 5.9!There is an empty place next to the hard drive, so I wonder if it is possible or not to add a second internal hard drive or even an SSD.
I searched for this user manual: no answer!
And on the web, I have also not found response.
Perhaps on this forum?Thank you and I apologize for my 'English amateur' (I'm french!)
Jerome.In General, it is not easy to discuss the performance of the laptop. All of us use notebook with a specific setup and preinstalled applications that can run in the background and slowing down the reaction of notebooks.
All I can say is that you must check the OS configuration and disable some unnecessary applications to start with Windows. Also disable the Windows automatic update installation. This can also slow down cell phone operations.
HDD/SSD
I n t have this laptop Qosmio but it will be interesting to follow: when you remove the cover and check empty place is available HDD/SSD connector or not? -

It seems that your computer already has 256 GB storage mSATA. You need 702870-001 for the HDD/SSD kit part number in order to use the HARD drive Bay
