  Hello:

  Chapter 3 of the service manual indicates that you can go to a 500 GB 7 200 RPN SATA II HDD.

• Pavilion dv6600ev: I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I want to check compatibility

  Hello guys. I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I would check the compatibility. For the momemt, I have 2 x 512 MB of RAM and a 160 GB HARD drive. Does anyone know the type of RAM (DDR1 or DDR2 most) and the accepted maximum capacity. Also the SATA port is a SATA I? Besides, I'm going to change the operating system (preferably in Win 7) so is there a driver?

  You can install DDR2-800 modules and they are the most widely available at this point, but the memory will run at 667 mhz speed.

  You can at any retail Branded 2.5 "SATA HDD 9.5 mm thickness, 1 TB will be OK - no problem with that.

  Looking at the Manual - Page 59-61, the replacement procedure is not just easy to him if you're not used to it, needs great disassembly & may void the warranty if you do it yourself if under warranty. You can Contact HP for this.

  This would be nice.

  HP would replace the HARD drive for free, if that came with the laptop failed in respect of the warranty period.

• Replace the hard drive of 500 GB with 256GB SSD in spectrum XT Touchsmart

  I tried to replace the HARD drive of 500 GB with 256 GB Samsung SSD and then began to install it using the external DVD drive, but during installation without disk hard were found. What I have to disable certain BIOS settings or I need to install the SSD in a separate location. Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.

  Yupp, I could install an SSD. You need to install the drivers for RAID Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) driver (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=22194&ProductFamily=Software+Products&ProductLine=Chipset+Software&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Rapid+Storage+Technology+ (Intel % C2% AE + RST) & lang = fre) during the installation of Windows 8. I extracted the drivers for USB and everything by choosing which device to install windows 8 installed drivers.

  After that, the SSD has been detected and the simple installation procedure. I pasted the link for the driver, don't know whether or not it will get removed. In case it is removed just search driver RAID Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST).

• Replaced the hard drive - now screen Intel Rapid Storage Tech comes first?

  A couple of weeks ago, I replaced the hard drive in my laptop Pavilion dm4-3090se with a 240 GB Samsung SSD (the laptop came with a 500 GB Hybrid HDD which is now my backup).

  Everything works fine, except when I first put it in, I get the screen shown in the image below and it takes a good 5 or 6 seconds before it closes and opens Windows. How can I make this screen go away?

  

  You are running Windows 7 or Windows 8? I see that you still have the installed cache acceleration mSATA 32 gig drive and it has the Intel Rapid Storage, just off acceleration partition. Can you find the control panel Intel Rapid Storage and reformatting the drive to 32 gig Accelerator? It will look something like this:

  

  I suggest also just remove acceleration 32 gig of hard drive. You have really no more. You can not acclerate a SSD and shouldn't do anyway since having a main SSD is still faster than having the accelerator. See page 44 of the Manual:

• Replace the hard drive

  Hello

  I have a HP TouchSmart IQ826T and the warranty has expired. I had a hard drive failure and after you run several tests and diagnostic tests have determined that I need to replace the hard drive.

  My question is that I currently have a Seagate ST3500620AS 500 MB drive installed in my PC and I was wondering if I could change it to a hard drive more large capacity.

  I'm not an expert, but a novice all help from the forum would be greatly appreciated.

  I am running Windows 7.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello:

  According to the page on the card to your PC, you can ride on a 1 TB drive.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01640567

  I don't know why HP dropped the rpm on a 1 TB drive. I think a disk 7 200 rpm would be nice too.

  Below is the link to the guide of upgrade and maintenance.

• HARD drive gone bad. How to replace the HARD drive and reinstall operating system without a recovery disk?

  I have a HP with Windows 7 Home Premium TouchSmart tm2.  The HARD drive is clicking and will not start.  Error: Device not found Boot.  I guess I have to replace the HARD drive, but how can I restore/reinstall operating system without a recovery disk?  Windows was preinstalled, and I have the product key.  Thank you.

  Hello:

  You can order a recovery disc defined by following the instructions on the link below.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334

  or...

  You can download the 32-bit or 64-bit version of windows 7 Home Premium ISO on the link below and use your product key to activate the installation.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  You need a program that will be able to burn ISO files so that the DVD is bootable DVD burning. Burn at the slowest possible speed for best results.

  Then install all the drivers you need for your PC support and driver page.

• Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD? or would it be too expensive?

  Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD?

  or would it be too expensive?

  Yes.  There are several alternatives.  I found a way relatively inexpensive, using a map of mSATA (very small SSD) and an adapter to connect it to the connector IDE 44 pin internal of my PowerBook.  It works very well.  Rather than repeat what I posted previously, you can watch these two topics (which also has good info, other users)

  Re: This win to install a SSD drive in a PowerBook G4?

  Re: SSDS  (my post is halfway - "this is how I did with my trusty Pismo...) »)

  FYI - I have used the adapter is even cheaper now

• Problems with folder permissions after replacing the hard drive

  Hello

  Recently, I replaced the hard drive on my mac.  Already before the replacement, I got the files that I had locked.  Now I'm unable to open the file.  I get the error "the folder 'nom_de_dossier' can not be opened because you don't have permission to see its content".  I looked at the permissions for the folder and everything he says is fetch.  I ran a command in the Terminal and for one of the records in question, that's what I see-

  Running OS X El Capitan

  Try this first:

  Start the mac all holding the SHIFT key, it is slow, connection, and then select Restart from the Apple menu.

  When this does not help:

  Reset password utility in the recovery Partition:

  1. Restart your computer from the recovery partition.
  2. Open disk utility and run a repair permissions on your boot volume (in ElCapitan click the first aid tab). Once this completed, close disk utility. We do this for good measure.
  3. Open a Terminal from the Utilities menu. Type in resetpassword and select your user (NOT administrator system/root) account in the menu drop-down.
  4. Click on the Reset button at the bottom of the window ACL section and Reset the folder permissions.
  5. Exit the utility password and return to the main recovery menu.
  6. On your keyboard, press ⌘ + Q and restart your computer. It is very important that you don't hold down the power button to exit the recovery session, or the ACL Reset to occur.
