  See page 47 for hard disk access and replacement. Without the drive of the WSSD, it is just a matter of replacing the HDD with a SSD 1 TB. Cloning a larger to a smaller drive can be a bit complicated so post back if you need some help with that.

  I always recommend a Samsung Evo 850 as best consumer SSD. I recommend you get at least a version of 250 gig and preferably a 500.

  You don't need to worry about any special BIOS settings or anything just to plug and treat it like any other hard drive. Many people resist the question and read articles that are a few years old at the time when you had to 'create' the system for one SSD. Not really need more.

• ENVY of HP dv6-7246us SSD Upgrade, problem Windows 7 installation with boot from a usb/dvd drive.

  Hi all

  I recently bought the dv6-7246us and have updated for one SSD HARD drive. The problem I have now is I can't boot from usb or dvd drive that contains the Windows 7installation. Initially, this laptop has a HDD with Windows 8. I changed the boot order to boot from the USB drive and the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive several times and have still no chance to start to the top of the installation. Is there a solution to this problem?

  Thank you

  Robert

  Hi, Robert:

  Go you into the BIOS and change in legacy Mode?

  I think that you need to do in order to boot from another device other than the hard drive.

• The CQ60 430SA with SSD upgrade

  Hello

  After much trawling the internet and various research I hope someone can help me to confirm if I can finish the next upgrade.

  I have a CQ60-430SA Windows 7 Professional 64 bit stock, with 4 GB of RAM, AMD Turion x 2 64-bit processor (VERY hot) and in recent months have gone through various scans of the system in order to limit start them all programs, Windows updates and various other background programs that made the laptop almost completely insensitive.

  He is now back some of its speed of origin but I always find it very laggy and hesitate to open programs, etc..  After reading on the SSD and performance increases that they can bring can tell me if I can replace the Toshiba MK2555GSX ATA HDD currently installed with an evo of 840 Samsung 256 Gb SSD?  I have also reviewed the upgrade of processor Turion Ultra ZM-82, I know to be compatible from the manual of maintenance (below), but are not convinced that he will give me a huge increase in performance (any thoughts?)

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

  If I can replace the hard drive with an SSD I also remove the laptop and replace the thermal paste on the processor (already cleaned the fan).  The laptop also needs a battery and external battery to replace.

  Thank you very much in advance for any advice given.

• Pavilion dv - 6 3138eo with SSD upgrade

  Hello

  I plan to upgrade my dv-6 3138 (AMD) with a SSD EVO Basic 840-Series 500 GB Samsung. The laptop will support this SSD?

  / Tommie

  Yes,

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02435719

  The Samsung 840 EVO can be used, simply replace HARD drive with it, it might be more slim (7mm) that the HDD (9.5 mm) but you can easily screw it on the hard drive carrier after its withdrawal from the HARD drive. If it frees up space, use the spacer that come with Samsung SSD kit.

  Migration/clone the entire HARD disk (hp recovery partition exclude) for the SSD prior to alternatives to using the Samsung data migration tool that comes with it or download it from the Samsung website.

• Is it possible to set up a secondary monitor using a touch screen of Envy 15 t-j000 with Windows 8

  When I bought my laptop, I was told that I could use a secondary monitor to display several documents, spreadsheets, Web sites, etc.  I was also told that there is a connection on the laptop, but it was not.

  Welcome to the HP, Phoenix forum.

  According to the Guide of Maintenance of system for the Envy 15, you might have a HDMI port on the left side of the laptop.

  HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC and HP ENVY TouchSmart PC - Maintenance and Service Guide 15 laptop

  Page 15 of the Service Guide:

  You must also have at least one or two ports high-speed USB 3.0 on each side of the laptop.  Note that if your laptop supports it, as the USB 3.0 #4 is also a USB 3.0 port - an interesting option of load.

  One of these port types can be used to connect an external monitor compatible HDMI.

  If you must use USB 3.0 ports because your computer does not come with a HDMI connection port, then you must buy a USB 3.0 to HDMI .  NOTE: The example shown in the link is just an option - many brands of these converters exist. You should consider buying any brand that you like.  Don't forget to buy a converter that responds to the requirements of resolution of your monitor - buy for the quality and features.

• HP Envy 6 - 1010ea HDD and SSD upgrade

  Hello

  I am looking to remove the existing HARD drive and msata SSD with the largest capacity as a 120 / 240 GB msata SSD and 1 TB + HDD for primary storage.

  I know that come from 2.5 "HDD in a number of variations, especially when it comes to the height of the car you can get 12.5 mm, 7mm, 9.5 mm and 15 mm and adapted plant Hitachi TravelStar Z5K500 is 7x70x100mm (WxHxD), so I was wondering what the larger physical size HARD drive I can hold inside is.

  Also are the dimensions on standard msata drives? and are there recommendations for msata SSD and 2.5 "HARD disk.

  Thanks in advance.

  No, you are limited for the ultrathin drives of 7mm.

• activate the AHCI mode on Envy Dv7 - 7398ca with SSD

  Year old i7 envy Dv7 - 7398ca notebook with SSD Samsung 840 Pro x 256.  Windows 8.1

  I've updated to the SSD shortly after I purchsed the laptop.

  No problem except the Samsung SSD Wizard software keeps tagging me as AHCI mode is disabled and must be enabled and I do not see it in the BIOS.

  Or I see anything that relates in the device as IDE Manager or other.

  It seems that the SSD is optimizing not itself based on the fact that it considers that AHCI is disabled.

  I apologize for the issue being this topic seems to be beaten to death over time, but I do not see what relates to this model or similar.

  Thanks for all the ideas.

  The system is set to ahci or RAID mode. You can tell that by opening the Device Manager and look at the storage controllers. Anyway it is optimized for SSDS and TRIM is activated. You can simply remove the program from Samsung and rest assured that your SSD is optimized.

• Hiding HP ENVY 15 t-j000 Quad Edition w/SSD and hybrid propulsion system. Swap disk for one SSD Question.

  Hi all!

  I bought the HP ENVY 15 t-j000 Quad Edition and opted for the WSSD 24Go cache as well as the hybrid drive 1 TB. Do I have a problem just buy a kit of cloning and spend the hybrid propulsion system to a full on SSD in the future if I choose to?

  I did some research but I can't isolate an answer if yes or no I might encounter problems on account of the Intel RST be "associated" with the traditional HARD drive caching.

  So I wonder if I can't just simply disable acceleration of RST, clone HARD drive for an SSD via a cloning kit, remove the HARD and the SSD drive and call it a day?

  Any help with this is appreciated!

  Thanks for the info but I was even more so, I was wondering if I would have a problem Exchange with a new SSD hybrid drive later by cloning.

  I thought that I would stick with the 8 GB of RAM and WSSD combo of cache/HDD for now and sometimes down the line (as in a year or two) to get rid of the HARD drive for a full on SSD, disable caching and at the same time move to 16 GB of RAM.

  But I don't know if yes or no the WSSD cache/HDD combo makes it difficult to clone and swap the HARD drive and then just leave the disc of "cache" of 24 gigas (which is more a cache drive) there to be upgraded later.

  Well, I think a pure 2.5 "SSD should work on the system but make sure the cache is removed. For the purposes of cloning, I suggest using the DD command:

• Envy 17 t-j000 caddy tray support SSD hard drive

  So, I have an ENVY 17 t-j000 Quad Edition on order. Only ordered with 1 HDD that I intend who move to the secondary place and put an SSD to the main square.

  According to the manual online, it seems that readers of screw in a shopping cart / tray / support any and in need of an adapter for the connector.

  Because I bought it with only 1 car. Does this mean he won't the tray with the adapter to install a 2nd drive?

  And if so, where can I get this caddy and connector adapter? I really hope that it comes with it as I made it very clear on the phone I buy with 1 only drive and add a 2nd drive on my own.

  http://PartSurfer.HP.com/search.aspx?type=prod&SearchText=E0K82UA

  I spend 1 hour on the phone and bounced between 3 people, each had to wait on hold for as a new call. No one could help me. They finally told me to call the HP parts store, which of course is now closed. And is only open MF 7 a - 7 p CST. 1-800-227-8164

  The link above is for the model J000 Quad Edition.

  I think that I need the Kit material of HARD drive and possibly the screws indicated in the same section. Although I do not know why the screws would not be included in the "Kit".

  720237-001 HDD HARDWARE KIT $30,40
  720260-001 SCREW $14.16

  Wow, if I really need the screws too, it's a crazy price for screws. $30 is also a crazy price for a cable and rubber.

  What makes me more upset that I'm going to make a huge deal is that I explicitly said their phone order when the laptop custom configured, that I was going to add a SSD drive myself.

  They should have told me that the system is in need of these parts. For so much money, I would spend the $60 (less the discount coupon) to upgrade to dual hard drives. Which would give me these pieces with two pre-installed drives. And then I would have just replaced one with a SSD and sold new HARD drive on ebay or on site. Easily covering the cost of the upgrade of the disk. And I wouldn't have to wait to get parts or went through all that effort to source a part that must be included with the laptop. What is the point of the laptop having 2-Bay disk for the upgrade if it does not come with the owners parts be used?

  Yet once, very upset that this issue has not been addressed when I talked to 2 different people when ordering my custom laptop. I spent a lot of effort in pre-sales questions to ensure he had 2 bays for hard drives to add an SSD.

  And why in the world these pieces about 10 times more than they should? This is a new laptop. It's not as if these parts are for cell old abandoned.

• SSD upgrade/migrate inside 23 tilt of HP Envy TouchSmart?

  (model: 23-k001hk all-in-One)

  Hello all - asking for suggestions advice from wise and kind people on the best way - and operating instructions - for upgrading the speed of my current hdisk 1 TB + SSD 16 GB cache scheme of HP storage by one of these itineraries:

  1) upgrade the disk installed cache 16 GB SSD mSATA disk (limit Intel RST) 64 GB mSATA

  Why: I update regularly a slap (10-15GB) of data from the Agency.

  so given that the daily volume of modified files is comparable to 16 GB,

  I'm assuming that a larger cache will actually add value

  (2) install an SSD 'broad' to serve the main startup disk by replacing

  the existing hdisk of 1 TB (I use a tiny fraction of it) with a 2.5 SSD "

  with a suitable support (and deleting or disabling the 16 GB SSD disk cache)

  Thanks in advance for any advice on this point, HP does not have any information on that, nor any obvious way to access or review the settings of the RST (firmware?) used in their SSDcache + hDisk arrangement (Yes, tried Ctrl-I, the boot, etc.-no joy).

  -Rob in Hong Kong

  Hi WAWood,

  A late thank you for your advice. Based on this feedback and having discovered just that software ExpressCache 'hidden' on my system quietly stopped working after the upgrade to Windows 10 (and HP support does not currently have updated software ExpressCache for Windows 10), I decided to install a large SSD drive and use it as a boot drive.

  In the this could help other all-in-One HP Envy owners tilt, here is a summary of the steps that worked with obvious disclaimers that even if it worked for me, it is not a 'universal' solution and also that if you mess with the hardware/software of your system, you are of course on your own, without guarantees or responsibility for this author) :

  (also, my apologies for the format - in a hurry)

  System:

  HP Envy tilt (23-k001h model) running Windows 10

  Basic purpose:

  Change the original storage configuration:

  Hdisk (boot drive) 1 TB + 16 GB mSATA SSD cache ("linked" to the hdisk via ExpressCache)

  TO:

  Hdisk (spare drive) 1 TB + new Samsung Evo 850 mSATA SSD 500 GB (as boot drive)

  Result

  Many, many "zippier" system: QuickStart, app launch, etc..

  Measures

  Disable ExpressCache

  (HP Envy models tilt seem to use this supplement Windows 3 rd-party, instead of Intel RST):

  In my case, as my recent visit to Windows 10 has taken care of this for me (haha), I don't have to do;  Otherwise, I guess we should stop the ExpressCache service, uninstall the software from ExpressCache and/or drivers, then reboot - suggest you only look it up in the forums, because I can't offer my own experience on this one.

  Clear/unloading as much unnecessary data from drive C: (1 TB hdisk) as possible.

  The goal would be to have used space on C: be greatly below your 500 GB (or other) new drive (in my case, I cut the used space on the C: 100 GB).

  Also a good idea to run the defrag Windows on C:, as may be useful (necessary?) for the reduction of this partition in the next step

  Disk management Windows allows you to shrink the Windows partition (mapped as C

  Goal: you want a net size of all partitions on hdisk (Windows + hidden/recovery/system partitions) to be a little less than the actual size of your new SSD (my "500 GB" SSD was actually more as 465 GB)

  Warning: disk management can claim "not enough space" to shrink Windows (C when it's clearly not partition so - in my case, the problem was due to my Windows partition is not the last partition on the disk before the unallocated space (if any) - obviously this disrupts the management of disks.)  If so, you need to move partitions using a 3rd party soft as AOMEI (free app - has worked well for me) all for the Windows partition is the last partition on the hdisk, with unallocated space located immediately after the Windows partition.

  Result: when the dust settles, the partitions allocated on your hdisk must have a net size which is comfortably at less than the actual capacity of your new SSD (in my case, the partitions was 440 GB on a capacity 465 GB SSD).

  Physics card mSATA SSD upgrade

  • Power PC, unplug from the mains and remove the rear plastic cover:
  • http://support.HP.com/in-en/document/c04100400
• Remove the metal shield covering the RAM:
  • http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04007922 (only the first 3 steps)
• Remove the metal shield covering the motherboard:
  • Locate/remove the 3 screws holding it down.
  • Lift on board as possible shielding at the booth of PC;
• Locate the SSD of origin (see tiny map labeled as SanDisk or some of these) and remove 2 tiny screws to attach to the motherboard.
• While keeping you constantly connected to the Earth (strap, touch metal chassis, etc.):
  • gently remove original SSD and save it in some static container (if upgrade fails and you want to restore the system to the original state of the material)
  • Gently insert the new card in lateral connector mSATA SSD,
  • and to the motherboard with the same 2 live
• Replace the motherboard of armour, armour of RAM and plastic cover

Check the new SSD 'visible' to the BIOS:

At first startup, use ESC to enter the BIOS settings, then check that BIOS 'sees' the new SSD as the original hdisk

Clone all partitions on hdisk--> new SSD

Start & connect to Windows and use Macrium Reflect (free) to clone all the partitions on hdisk for the new SSD - see large portico advice to:

http://www.howtogeek.com/199068/how-to-upgrade-your-existing-hard-drive-in-under-an-hour/

Do not forget:

• Suggestion from the link above, you must first a Macrium recovery disk
• You can clone * all * the partitions on the SSD's original hdisk

Result: cloned partitions now visible on new SSD. may have little extra/no allocated space on SSD (can deal with that later)

In the BIOS change the boot to new SSD drive

Reboot PC, press ESC to enter the BIOS to change the boot order:

• make the first boot drive in SSD
• also suggest to disable booting from originals hdisk (night before you really start SSD)
• Save the BIOS settings and exit the BIOS

Make sure that you have started of SSD and clean the unwanted drive mappings

Start & log Windows

(the fact that you can reach this point means that you have passed the first test)

Use Windows Disk Manager to

* ensure that C: is mapped to your new SSD.

* make sure that you can still see original hdisk, too

* suggest remove you mappings of unnecessary letters drive

(with the exception of the C: drive!) for all other partitions on hdisk or SSD

Test through full reboot

As a further test, do a reboot of Windows to make sure there are no problems with the start-up of SSD; again, once in Windows, use disk management to check again once your C: drive is the partition on the new SSD

Optimizing Windows SSD

There are several Windows setting changes that you should do when your primary/boot disk is an SSD, either:

• If you have purchased a Samsung SSD, you can download/use their app "Samsung magician" to do so (see "Optimization of OS" section), or
• Google "Optimizing windows 10 ssd" to find any number of guides to achieve this, such as:
  • http://www.disk-partition.com/Windows-10/SSD-optimization-Windows-10-4348.html
• Note: one of the most important changes are those related to mode AHCI (ability to GARNISH)
• Note: some suggested parameters cannot be 100% essential, for example:
  • pagefile on SSD: some authors suggest no page on the DSS file, others say "keep" small'(?) "; most compelling advice I've seen are to retain the page file on the SSD, but let Windows manage the size; in all cases, should make sure that your system has * sufficient * RAM (8 GB and more) for your usage requirements.
  • 'leave free space' (aka overprovisioning): SSD experts suggest that current-technology SSDS, it is not necessary
  • "do not defrag": 10 Windows recognizes SSD and disable defrag automatically

All the problems?

Note that at this point, you still have your original hdisk with windows/data for a few days, so if this migration does not work, you can always go back by turning off the SSD and change the startup disk (in BIOS) originally hdisk

After a few days: some cleaning

When you are reasonably comfortable that your system is booting from SSD and Windows/apps work correctly, you can perform the following operations:

• Use Macrium Reflect (free) or similar to save a snapshot of your current partition SSD
• After the backup, delete old/unnecessary partitions on original hdisk. For some, drive management works; others may need to resort to using the command line program Admin "diskpart" (read the instructions carefully!) and use "Delete Partition Override" (be very sure that you have selected a partition on the * original hdisk * (IE, 'old'))
• Disk management allows you to create a new simple volume on hdisk original now empty, as a reader of alternative utility
• Regular backup of SSD Annex: SSDS, as with mechanical parts, will fail - it's only a matter of time. It 's going to happen. Thus, strongly suggest that you configure regular (daily) snapshots of your SSD partitions. Again, I use Macrium Reflect to do this with a full backup weekly + differential daily backups and save the images in the now empty original hdisk in the PC
• If your SSD has any sense space not allocated, you may want to expand the Windows partition on the SSD drive use disk management to make use of this space

• Increase the performance of MAC with the SSD upgrade

  I have a 21.5-inch iMac model 14.1 (end 2013) with 8 GB of memory and a 1 TB drive. On this, I use some applications in memory such as Adobe CS 5.5 and VMWare Fusion 8.1.1. I have Applecare on the machine until September 2017. I often find myself running out of memory. My goto solution would be to increase the memory and replace the hard drive with an SSD. I fear, however, that this cancels my Applecare. My research indicates that while that frowned upon, I can upgrade my memory and keep my Applecare as long as it is done by an authorized by Apple, but if I do the SSD I'm out of luck for the installed components. My thought is that I can get an external SSD and move the ' WIndows 10' VM (s), as well as expand and move the swapfiles for the SSD system.»

  My questions are am I right about the Applecare and warranty and I plan to use an external SSD to accelerate performance and ease the work of memory constraints?

  I have f

  I have a Macbook Air in 2010 and also a 2008 iMac - both with only 4 GB of memory (you have twice as much), both running El Capitan and the two with SSD - and perform very well. The 2008 iMac used to have a rotating disc which has recently failed, with the replacement of SSD, it is a remarkable transformation with the new SSD, it seems very quickly for me. Both have Photoshop CS4, which is not used much more, but they run this software very well, as well as MS Office 2011 and other programs such as Mail, Safari, Firefox, etc. (Firefox + Photoshop together put a noticeable load on machines, in fact, but while I sometimes hear the fans come on the Macbook Air, it maintains not up very well) No slowdown) You'll be in great shape with a SSD for your newer computer. These old machines that I use have Core 2 Duo CPUs, chips relatively slow, but they seem very quickly with the SSD.

  You will need to check with Apple directly on your AppleCare and so that would be affected. I don't know that anyone is not Apple should trust this question.
