  HARD drive:

  The HARD drive I have now is this.

  Yes, absolutely. Stick with 2.5 inches wide, 9.5 or 7 mm thickness SATA hdd or SSD. 7 mms are leaner, but the mounting holes are in the same place and the SATA data connector and the power supply is in the same place. You cannot use a 9.5 where only a 7mm is used as on Ultrabooks ultraslim, but a 7mm will replace a 9.5 mm. 7mm fits into the caddy and connectors will still work the drive but does not fill the carriage upwards. Yours is a chunky fellow that originally had a 9.5 mm drive. Sometimes you see disks of 2.5 inches wide from 12mm for blades and those who are not fit.

  If it's in the budget, get an SSD. I'm kinda an envangelist SSD, but you will be too once you have used a.

• Is it possible to upgrade the Satellite A100-906 with 160 GB 7200 RPM HARD drive

  Hello guys,.

  First of all, I would like to congratulate all the people here for their good advice.
  As for my question, I want to upgrade my HARD drive. I have the laptop A100-906, which has a drive HARD 100 GB 5400 RPM Hitachi.

  The hard drive, I would like to buy, is also Hitachi but with the highest capacity (160 GB) and RPM faster (7200 against 5400).
  I wonder, if my laptop supports this drive and if I have problems with temperature and noise, because the HARD drive runs at 7200 RPM.

  To summarize the above, is it really useful to replace my old 5400 RPM HARD drive to a new 7200 RPM?
  Should I buy a new one with 5400 RPM to avoid having problems of temperature and noise?

  Please let me know your opinion and thank you in advance.
  STL

  Hello

  As you already know we can only speculate on the size of the HARD disk
  In my opinion the 160 GB would be possible. But it s just my personal opinion.

  In any case, the higher speed (7200 RPM) HARD drive should be a problem. I noticed that many laptops use 7200 RPM HDDs and 5200 RPM. So I imagine that the heat produced by the HARD drive shouldn't t increase the level of temperature at a critical level.

• I'm finally upgrading to XP (SP3) to Win7. I have two hard drives on my computer.

  Can I move the files I want to save on the other hard drive and install Win7 on the main HD instead of buy an external HD as the instructions State?

  I have an old Dell XPS410 with 2 GB of RAM and two HDs. The only thing I use the other HD for storage is (I am an artist and musician). The idea of having to save this HD set is terrifying for me right now there are about 350 GB worth of songs made with reason and images and web graphics made with Photoshop. The last thing I want to do is lose this kind of things. The 2nd HD was added long after I initially bought the computer, and I have never re-installed the system since the 2nd HD has been added.

  A custom install of Win7 would also remove the info on the second HD?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Move your songs during the second drive unit. Then turn off the computer and unplug the data cable from the second drive unit. This will leave only the drive that you want to install Windows 7 on connected and nothing on the second disc will be safe.

  Custom installation (which is your only option when upgrading Windows XP will however require that you all you reinstall applications (including Photoshop), so locate all your installation media and product keys.)

  Hello, I have an old Dell Inspiron E1505, I bought in 2006, which I have upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 Pro last an online purchase that came with a product key of designertechsoftware.com in April of 2014. Months later, the hard drive has so I replace w / a 60 GB one and replaced the RAM w / 2-1 GB cards. I don't have a disc of Windows 7 Pro but I got it work using the old XP dics, originally, it came with. Can I use this disc to enter the product key code that I got online for Windows 7? I see there is an upgrade option that comes up when I run the XP disk once it's been installed on my laptop. Thanks in advance for your help in my question. Not sure if it has been already answered the previous question.

  Your best option is to ask a backup copy or to borrow the corresponding edition, you have a license from a friend. Ensure that it is a upgrade disk or any retail version is authentic.

  Here is the link to the page of user guides for your laptop model series, which includes the maintenance manual.

  As your model has an AMD processor and chipset, you cannot replace the existing wireless card with a processor Intel, one.

  There are too many cards Intel does not not on models with AMD hardware.

  My recommendation, if you want a card dual band N Wireless with bluetooth, would be to get the Broadcom BCM943228HMB 802.11abgn 2 × 2 adapter Wi - Fi, Broadcom Bluetooth4.0 adapter - part # 730668-001 HP

  You can get the generic card cheaper on Amazon than recovering from HP.

• Processor and internal hard drive upgrade advice

  First here's all the specifications of my computer. HP Touchsmart 310 1125 y. 8 GB of RAM is the only change that I've done so far.

  For the processor, I am interested in upgrading to

  http://www.Amazon.com/DP/B005AKK02S/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&ColId=2L6PV8EVNUTPC&colii...

  OK now my question is being the 65w TDP my computer will be compatible with it? Also with this processor I'll be able to tell the difference between the 2 or is even worth the hassle? Another thing, this processor will be too fast for the other components of my computer? I'm new to all this, so, be liberal with your advice...

  Regarding the upgrade of the internal drive I mentioned. This computer would benefit from that? I have a 750 GB hard drive at the moment, but I use hardly any of this. I know that the SSD computers of the give a boost enormous speed but I don't know if it's 1 compatible with this desktop computer market.

  Thank you very much in advance for any advice!

  I would not bother with this upgrade of the processor. If you do, he's going for a Quad Core or at least a Triple Core, and frankly even it's not going to be really noticeable except in some programs like Photoshop and a few others that are put in place to take full advantage of more 2 processor cores.

  Yes by all means the SSD is the way to go. See pages 15 to 17 of this manual of hard drive replacement instructions:

  Manual

  You will need a 2.5 inch adapter 3.5 inches, but those who are easy to find and you can use any SATA SSD on the market.

  I like this one:

• Which version of Windows Vista do I have? I can't read the sticker because it is worn out and the hard drive is dead.

  What version of vista OS x 14-39682

  I can read 25 characters of Vista on the coa sticker numbers, but the name of the version of windows has dissipated. The hard drive is unreadable and dead. I have another hard drive and the number, but I don't know which version of Windows Installer. The number, I can read is 00148-128-072-097 and the other is x 14-39682.

  The 14-39682 X is the part number of your copy of Windows Vista and it is Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 OEM.

• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7, files using the second internal hard drive and Windows Easy Transfer.

  I have a desktop pc with 2 internal hard drives.  A hard drive has the BONE and the second hard disk is a separate partition.  (I do not combine hard drives using RAID.)  If I upgrade Vista to Windows 7, the upgrade will be to reformat hard disks or just a hard drive with the operating system?  Should I remove the second hard disk of the computer just to be sure?  The second hard drive must be reformatted for use with Windows 7?

  Thank you.

  You must install the upgrade in the Vista operating system.

• Upgrade to Windows 10 new disk when the Windows 7 hard drive does not

  I have a desktop HP with Windows 7 Pro and since last week, it will fail to start.   It seems that it is approaching, but everything does not end.    I would just buy a new SSD and upgrade to Windows 10.      I don't have Windows 7 installation floppies, but the license key is on the case of the office.      What are my options?   Hopefully I won't need to buy Windows because my hard drive has failed.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience and appreciate your interest for Windows 10.

  The license key of the operating system is integrated into the motherboard. To enable Windows 10 without facing any errors, you must activate the previous version of Windows with a valid license key, and then proceed to the upgrade.

  If you replace the SSD HARD drive, you must activate the previous Windows, i.e. Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 version, if it is a true copy as well as the activation key and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  Since you do not have an installation disc, I suggest to create one by downloading the ISO image of Windows 7 on a CD or USB key and check if you are able to download the operating system.

  https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/home

  After downloading and installing Windows 7, upgrade to Windows media authoring tool10.

  Note: See the section on the use of the media creation tool from the link above for more information.

  Refer to the link below on How to download official Windows 10 ISO files:
