  Welcome to the HP Forum.

  The easiest option if you have friends nearby (those living with tech), is to borrow a DVD USB drive and plug it into the laptop for a few minutes so that you can download your software.

  You can buy this kind of tech pretty cheap, too.

  If you have your key, it should be in the CD box, you can probably download Microsoft Office - according to the version - and just use the key you already activate it.

  For w10pro c: / recommend reinstall to ssd or migrate ssd or even is...?

  SSDS all have sons the same size and holes threaded on the bottom and sides.  They all use the same fine metric threads live short (short, so they don't lower).  These screws must come with the adapter, and I live in general using the lateral holes.  Parts of the adapter have threaded, 3 holes and you will use the back ahead and away from those for channels of the drive Bay.  If you look at each side of a standard 3.5 "HDD, you will see the same same spacing holes.

  Some jobs need the SSD to shift to the left so the orientation of the SSD SATA power and data ports match exactly where they would be if the current drive was a 3.5 "HARD drive clutter.  An example is the drive in a Z620 of drawers which accept 3.5 form factor devices "and slides of drawers in the deep part of the case and automatically mesh with ports of power/data SATA back inside.

  Jobs that fuel just a loose cable and the data cable for the SSD is really doesn't matter much if the SSD is an adapter which keeps it more centered or offset to the left.  I've seen cases where a disk HARD 3.5 "given in the lower Bay and a centered SSD is in the upper drive Bay and there was nearly not enough cable length to reach easily shifted left for drives staggered in the Center.  You can see in the photo below that the Garland of feeding on the HARD drive has two unused SATA power below connectors, and there is not a lot of room between them.

  The card you chose seems good... solid metal.  For the HP 8200 Elite CMT I have access to screws 4 total special 6-32 UNC silver HP threaded screw threaded back ahead and away from the screw holes on both sides of the adapter, and then you use the extraordinary end threads metric short screws mentioned above to fix the SSD to the adapter, as shown in the pictures of Amazon.  These HP silver screw 6-32 no metric I'm talking using Torx or flat screwdriver and their leaders are trained to slip into the channels of the drive Bay.

  There are also other designs which are designed specifically for some HP workstations that include mounts insulation rubber with the sliding mechanism.  I don't think you have that... Here is a picture of eBay one of the 8200 Desktop Elite CMT demonstrating the existence of space on the left for 8 of these silver screw to store, which 4 are missing and used on 3.5 "single drive, you see there.  Don't throw those... they are not something, you can go to Ace hardware and buy.

• ENVY 15-K202NT: SSD Slot m2

  Hi all

  I read a lot of resources on this forum about M.2 SSD abot slot and I have a few questions.

  First of all, I want to replace this SSD with a capacity of higer and install the operating system to this ssd without removing the HARD drive. I mention this because someone said to remove the HARD disk to boot from m2 due to the limitations of the BIOS but another says you can fix with the settings. My first question is this possible?

  My second question is if replace SSD HARD drive without removing M.2 SSD will it become a problem later? Due to the older SSD has short life of reading / writing and cache ssd made these operations every time as a primary hard drive and maybe HP used an older technology on the SSD m2.

  And the last question is if I delete complately m2 SSD can I boot from 2.5 HARD drive with no problems?

  Thank you very much.

  Yes, you have a hybrid drive. The 8 GB NAND is built into the hard drive. I do not believe that your model with the screen 15-inch has a slot m2, only versions of 17 inches. So if you want an SSD there should be only a 2.5 inch SATA SSD.

• ENVY Touchsmart series of J000 15 (J001TX) optional mSATA slot for installation of Windows?

  I wanted to ask you

  1. the question of if we can install a drive 60-120 GB mSATA in mSATA slot and use it as the place of installation of Windows? It would be like having a configuration double hard drive if windows is installed on the mSATA and the 5400 RPM HARD drive is formatted? I know that this could affect the warranty but I'm curious.

  2. also is all models of car mSATA in black list/white list by HP?

  3. when we install a mSATA drive in the Bay, this affect RAM max can we use?

  4. What is the size of the mSATA player who would fit into the available slot?

  5. is the slot mSATA SATA II or SATA III interface?

  Hello

  Q1: Yes, you can install Windows on a module mSATA on this laptop...

  http://Forum.NotebookReview.com/HP-envy-HDX/729085-envy-15T-J000-mSATA-SSD-HDD-fresh-install-mSATA-boot-drive.html

  I recommend to remove the hard drive if the how does not say that. MSATA module is compatible, so I do not think that this will affect the warranty.

  Q2: Difficult to answer this one, but some guy already confirmed that Samsung PM830 256 GB drives to work with this series. Other models also work, just search this forum...

  Q3: The mSATA can be used as cache or a boot disk. If it will be useful to cache it will not work with 12 GB or more according to the manual of the laptop series. If it will be used as boot drive should not be a limitation, so you can use the max 16 GB or so.

  Q4: mSATA is a format standard/interface/so any mSATA SSD must correspond to the slot, the capacity is not serious.

  Q5: As I said mSATA is an interface (slot), SATA II or III (speed) is a matter of the chip on the motherboard. This is the case even as the typical SATA connection. Connectors and slots are the same, but the speed is founded by the chipset...

• Adding a Cache of SSD drive for my laptop

  I posted earlier about this and got a response from Hüffer... Maybe I misunderstood, but installing the msata ssd is proving to be more complex and more complex that I read in response to Hüffer.

  When I install the SSD and start the system, I not give me the ability to choose which drive to boot from.  Instead the system tried to start, fails, seems to take a dump, and then try again.   If I use the ESC key and to open the OS boot manager, it still does not offer the possibility to choose the player and fails, but this time said he's trying to do an automatic rebuld.  (or something of the sort).  At this point, I interrupt him and force it to power down.

  I tried to research the issue elsewhere, and it seems that the AHCI mode that the system works is the source of the problem.  My Intel RST not have her option "speed up" which I believe is necessary and offers instead 'performance '.  Here is a link to one of the better posts I found on the subject: http://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/How-it-Works-Intel-SSD-Caching-148/

  At the beginning of the post, you will see pictures of what the Intel RST should look like your SSD when adding.  The first photo shows it with five buttons with one of them being "accelerate" and notes that this picture below:

  "Launching the Intel RST software and click on the 'Accelerate' button." "If the button is not present, you or the other are not in RAID mode or one of the other conditions have not been met.

  I found a setting to what happens to the bios on a windows system 8 and it offers the option to enable raid.  My conclusion is that it is what I have to do to add the msata ssd in my system as a disk cache.

  So... my question...

  My conclusion is correct?  Or maybe the answer is that my system does not meet some other requirements to use the SSD msata as a disk cache.

  My system is a Touchsmart from HP Envy 15-j003cl Notebook PC.   I found the reference in the Device Manager there the "Intel 8 series / C220 series family Platform Controller Hub ' and I read a decription of the hub there is hope that he does not support what I want to do.  (http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/8-series-chipset-pch-datashee...

  Any guidance would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  To enter the RAID configuration, you must first go in the BIOS (F10) and turn on legacy startup and disable secure boot. Then you can enter the RAID configuration. You press ctrl-I (capital I) when you rewind until you get in the RAID configuration. You want to do the separate no RAID drives. But first let's see how they are defined by default. Go into the RAID Utility and do not change anything. Just report what you find.

• SanDisk ultra II 480 GB ssd update for macbook pro 2009 (5.4)

  Hi, this is not a question but just some information that I wanted to let down as I was cultural for this search but could not find any info anywhere here or elsewhere online...

  My 6 year old, 250GB internal hard drive died and I decided to replace it with an ssd, after looking at all the options and additional information about compatibility issues, problems of crash/stand etc. I decided (without a clue and fingers crossed) with the sandisk ultra II ssd 480 GB

  So far so good, the mac works amazingly fast, no el capitan osx installation problems and no problems with SATA speed negotiation, turns the 3gps. It is like having a brand new computer!

  Conclusion: upgrade 100% recommended

  

  I recently took a similar decision for my Mac Pro Tower silver server, install two 960GB SSD of this manufacturer (Sandisk).

  The SATA 3 G bps Bus SATA Mac's limits you to a maximum of about 375 M bytes/second. Although this is a little slower than maximum speed than the SSD applications (on the order of about 500 cases of best M bytes/s), it is still fast enough.

  Improving the speed on a rotating disk is so great, it is certainly useful.

  Make sure that you activate the TRIM on your SSD. If ongoing 10.10.4 or later, you can use the Terminal command:

  sudo trimforce enable

  (your password is not included, you will be notified that it is serious, and a reboot will be once the TRIM is activated).

• 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.

• Laptop HP 15-ay013nr: M.2 SSD update for HP Notebook 15-ay013nr

  What type of M.2 SSD is supported in the HP 15-ay013nr laptop?  This unit supports the Samsung 950 Pro 512 GB SSD is like an upgrade?

  This model can have a hard drive or a WSSD m2, but not both. There is a sign of Solid State Drive that fits the WSSD for the same space in the laptop as a hard drive or SSD of full size. From a SATA hard drive and the m2 plug into the connector as well, I would say that you should use a SATA M.2 WSSD and not a PCI-e version you ask. It is a new model with a processor of Skylake so not easy to find information, but here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  See p. 56.

  So if you want the WSSD and you order the laptop with a HDD or 2.5-inch SSD, you also somehow locate the SSD card. Just, I would setup an SSD 2.5 inch because I think that the Council will be difficult to locate.

• How can I upgrade (where to buy) the SSD storage for my macbook pro retina 15 "?

  I currently have 256GB on my mac, which is far from enough. as far as I know, the macbook pro get a SSD sata-m and I would buy more. I can buy it on the Apple site?

  Apple does not sell any upgrade to the MacBook Pro retina. If you want to upgrade the internal memory, the connector is not standard m-SATA so your options are limited. One of the few places improvements are available is MacSales.com, who is a seller very good reputation (I bought many improvements to them):

  OWC SSD Flash storage upgrades - MacBook Pro with the retina 13 "& 15" 2012 - beginning 2013

  On this page, you'll see also that they sell a pen, so that you can use the drive out you of your Mac as an external drive.
