• Adding second SSD to envy 14

  Hello, I recently bought a HP Envy spectrum 3010NR (?) (128 GB SSD, i7) and I was wondering what the process would be to add a second SSD on my own?

  I found a manual online (thanks to this site =)) that details how to get to the SSDS (for some reason, I can't post the link of the PDF, but there simply shows how to access the SSD drives and gives a part number 675508-001 for the 128 GB SSD). 33 page I think. Sorry, I don't know why it wouldn't bind.

  I then used the references listed in this guide to find spares (a second SSD for the empty disc) on HPs website and found this, however being a big enough SSD at a price as cheap (most other SSD, I found online were double this price), I was suspicious that I was looking at the wrong part Maybe? Can anyone confirm this to be the correct SSD, I need, and they ordered this on the site before for envys them?

  In addition, I have to update the BIOS settings, or change other settings of the computer, before I could access the storage space, someone had this type of operation performed with their envys?

  Thank you very much for your time and assistance!

  Hi guys and girls (if applicable)

  I have good news for all fans of HP Envy 14 spectrum if you had any doubts, you can install more than 256 GB of SSD.

  The answer is YES, but more probably final success will depend on the brand of the drive you choose. If I were you, I'd go for Samsung I did. Not only are they (in my opinion) the best SSDS now, but also, these are they that HP uses in your computer to build factory, but to the point...

  I have two models model HP Envy 14 spectrum 3100 and 3200 and in the two tof them I managed to install two new SSD hard drive of 250 GB Samsung EVO mSata and 1 TB Samsung EVO mSata!

  Both have same configuration with system of 250 GB and 1 TB as s storage drive and the two running with Windows 7, although they already are with this piece of crap Win8. So I put matching drivers and everything works flawlesly for several months now. No problem with suddenly disappear SSD or any type of strange events or suspected.

  It may be that helpful to someone who needs more space and wants to spend this beautiful machine.

  Hello

  Honestly, the Acer store (authorized service center) will be the best solution. This model is not really easy to upgrade.

  I'll give you a few models of SSD M.2 2280 (you don't need no cable):

  • Transcend
  • A - Data
  • Samsung

  You will also need a small fix/lock screw it: 86.MQJN1.002 - LIVE. M2xL3

• SSD Samsung Pro like second SSD on optical drive

  Hi all!

  I have an i7 MacBook Pro mid-2012 2.9 Ghz Mavericks

  I have upgrated it replaces first my Superdrive with the original apple Hd 750 GB, defining a Pro SSD 256 gb HD first OSX.

  Everything was ok.

  So I decided to change my second HD (Apple 750 GB on optical Bay), with a SAMSUNG of PRO SSD 512 GB to increase performance... (I use the second drive as a media folder for my musical activity... documents, samples, libraries of plugins...)

  I just changed the HD Apple with the new... but when I restart the computer, the second drive icon does not appear in the disk utility that, in other places (information system.. etc...)

  Why?

  Could someone help me? Please

  Hi Anapcam:

  I suggest that you install the new SSD in an external enclosure from OWC enclosure or with a USB to SATA adapter SATA USB adapter and connect to your MBP via USB.

  Open disk utility > delete and format the SSD for Mac OS extended (journaled) and a GUID partition.

  Then try to install in your optical Bay. See if it works.

• Add second ssd to end 2013 imac?

  I know that there is another post on ssd of imacs improvements, but not for what I want to do. I want to keep the hd and ADD a SECOND HDD. Is this possible in new imacs? (not 5 k and 5 k) Thank you

  Recent Macs have no accommodation for two hard drives. But you can add them externally via Thunderbolt or USB 3.0.

• Satellite L500-19th - connection of the second SSD/HDD internal

  According to the control system L500-19th has a free SATA port.

  Port 0: free
  Port 1: HDD internal (1 TB Western D)
  Port 4: DVD drive internal
  Port 5: drive external eSATA connecting

  I intend to connect an SSD on port 0.
  Where can I find the port?

  If this does not work, I would buy a HARD - setting for the tree of CD-ROM drive.

  Does anyone have experience with it?

  Thanks a lot for your answers

  Internal second HARD drive or SSD can be added if the laptop has a second location of HARD drive and room for a second HARD drive. Is this the case with your laptop?

  Check the underside if place to second HARD drive is available.

• HP dv7 6b51ea: hp dv7 6b51ea, install second SSD hard drive HELP

  
  

  Yes, the cable's owner. HP recovery will not install the software from the factory to a 256 gigabytes as the SSD drive, you want to buy. I understand perfectly what you want to do and I try to help you to do so after doing it myself several times. In the hope of you help get through the common pitfalls.

  This is the cable you need on eBay UK:

  Now let's work on getting to the supported Windows 7 installation if you install it on your Virgin SSD. You are going to need some sort of media set as an external hard drive. We need to get the HDD 1 TB in the Bay of primary and get Windows 7 running on it. The HP recovery disk will work for this.

• 13 Alienware does not recognize the second ssd m2

  I just installed an ssd in m.2 ADATA in the second slot, and while the drive appears in the bios and in intel rapid storage app it does not appear in windows as a usable drive.  What I understand is the original ssd in the 'c' drive and I it does not show as a "d" or any other player.  He also appears in Device Manager as well.  What should I do to make it appear as drive "d".

  Thank you!

  Sounds like it needs to be initialized and formatted in Windows:

• Second SSD dies after only 13 months

  Hello

  I read the topic of the 'death of SSD on Aspire S7' on this forum.

  Having posted the following comments on it I thought that I would do better to start a new and share my progress with you.

  ----

  I read with interest the previous comments on the early failure rate, but what are the chances to get a reliable drive before the warranty runs out?

  I had the SSD on my M5 fail after about 7 months. Acer it replaced under warranty, but it has just failed again one month out of warranty. So 2 doesn't have a SSD in 13 months. Tech support said there is nothing they can do, but take care to have a replacement mounted. This doesn't seem fair to me. Not all happy.

  I'm waiting now dept UK_Escalations get back to me.

  --------

  Sent the complaint to the UK_Escalations 29/09/13 23:17 UK

  Receipt notification, 30/09/13 12.09 UK, the complaint received by them and an officer will be assigned to me shortly.

  10/01/14 16:50 UK.  I'm still waiting to hear from the officer.

• (Redirected) Add the second SSD to Alienware area 51 R2

  Hello, I recently bought a new Alienware Area 51 R2, currently I have a 128 GB SSD main + 2 TB storage config. I want to add an other SSD, capable of 256 GB. I want to start my games from there.

  My Question is, what would be the best solution for my needs? I see so many types of SSD out there and have little knowledge about the benefits and disadvantages of each.

• Photoshop CC 2015 30 seconds + SSD boot caught up on 'reading Preferences.

  Hello I am currently using an i7 retina Macbook Pro 2.3 GHz, 16 GB memory DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce gt 650M 1024Mo

  CC of Photoshop is taking approx. It takes about 30 seconds to load and gets the brand "Reading Preferences" after only a few seconds. So, it hangs at 'Reading Preferences' for another + 25 seconds.

  I have no plug-ins. I completely did a new install of Photoshop CC without saving the presets, I have my change of graphics turned off on my MBP, I disabled the font previews and validated my fonts using the font book. I uninstalled all previous versions of Photoshop, I had installed. I'm still lost.

  I can open Photoshop and it will take 30 seconds... Immediately close and reopen and there about 7 seconds... Close again and it goes back to 30 sec...

  I have the same problem on my new iMac that has been cloned to my MBP.

• 140 21 Pavilion - t All in One: SSD drive expansion slot

  Lavender U motherboard has a "half-length card mini" Jack. What is a PCIe compatible location? This slot allows you to add an SSD PCIe drive to increase the capacity of drive? I was told by one person in support of HP that it would be another told me it can not be used, I am confused and do not want to invest in a SSD PCIe drive, if it does not work.  Also of a compatible SSD details, I want to add 256GB.

  Thank you

  Thanks Big_Dave, this compensation for me. I have another question please, the installed BIOS supports AHCI if my SSD drive will show all the benefits? I think just to replace my internal drive with an SSD is not using the msata slot.

  Anything else I'm missing or need to know?

  Thank you

• W520 second half mini-pcie slot

  Under full one keyboard and a half mini-pcie slots, plug w520 on page said 1 full, 2 half

  Where is the slot in the second half?

  There are only two mini-PCIe connectors in the W520. There are other cards (void / MDC, BDC, i/o) installed, but they are not mini-PCIe form factors.
