IdeaPad Z570 - can he support a SATA III SSD?

I'm looking for by replacing the slow 5400 RPM HARD drive in my laptop Z570, and I was wondering if anyone knows if it can support a SATA III SSD?

jhollender,

Z570 is only Sata II. So if you were to get a SSD SATA III, you only use it to speed SATA II and not to speed SATA III.

Please look around and see if there is no reviews with users using a Z570 with SSD because there have been compatibility issues concerning different SSDS due to the type of controller used.

Thank you.

  • Port of TP T60 SATA / SATA III SSD?

    Hi, I have an old TP of IBM/Lenovo T60 1952 - CTO and I need a new hard drive. I immediately thought about buying some SSD (probably Micron RealSSD C400 128/256 GB used in the new ThinkPad). The problem is that these new SSD is equipped with SATA III interface. My question is if my T60 has a SATA II port and if I can use it (or similar) with this portable SSD.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the forum!

    Your machine will take a SATA III SSD, but it will not work at SATA I speeds. It is however, in my opinion.

  • My system will support a SATA III disc?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    According to two different documents from HP, your PC has only SATA II ports.  However, a SATA III hard drive will still work.  In addition, the chipset Intel H61 in your PC doesn't support SATA II.

    Hi everyone, recently I'm ready to install an mSATA SSD on my w520, but I don't know if the mini PCI-E of this machine the SATA-III 6Gbps support, or it may only run a SATA III mSATA SSD SATA II mode. If anyone has tested this before? Thank you.

    I don't have the reference at hand, but I'm sure I've read on several forums that the mSATA on the W520 supports sata 2 only, not 3.

    Yes, it seems that the drive will work on your computer.  Here are the components on the memory Crucial site with their Crucial tool.  One of their recommended updates is a MX100 - 512 GB - SSD which is SATA III.  "Given that these drives are 2.5", it will be necessary to buy an adapter for it to integrate into a 35 ' drive Bay.

  • W530 msata does support 6Gbps SATA III?

    Hi everyone, I know W520 mSATA supports 3 Gbps connection. but by launching a new SSD mSATAIII I hope W530 with Ivy Bridge and QM77 chipset suports 6 Gbps connection.

    Thanks for any idea or references abaut that?

    mSATA does not PCI-Express use despite being in the mini-PCI-Express form factor.

    When plugged into a port compatible mSATA causes the port to change his basic SATA signalling mode instead of PCI-Express; That's why mSATA cards work only in specific locations on laptops instead of in any mini-PCI-Express slots.

  • Swap HDD PSAAQE Equium A100 - 01 M - would be Crucial M4 work SATA III SSD 64 GB?

    I have a friend in a bit of a State with their incredibly slow laptop; I have a spare old M4 of Crucial 64GB SATA and a couple of hours free in the morning. I said I would try to help and my plan is to swap the drives.

    I see from the [Manual | http://www.toshiba.co.uk/innovation/tracker.jsp?file=http%3a%2f%2fsupport1.toshiba-tro.de%2ftedd-files2%2f0%2fuserman-en-20090212142351.zip] that there is a recovery partition.

    I have one of these USB to SATA led and I really was hoping if someone could let me know something that Googling it has not revealed so far that is:

    1: what SATA is this laptop? Is it 1 or 2? This player works on it?
    2: what is the best method to copy the current structure of disk and partition? Preferably leaving the data not copied partition as this will be a full recovery.

    Is that all I need to know?
    Sorry if this IS answered elsewhere, but I have 2 hours to do, I do it for free, and I just googled this morning already.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    > 1: what SATA is this laptop? Is it 1 or 2?

    As much as I know the satellite and the Satellite A100 supports SATA I controller.
    The two series are the same.

    > This disc will work on it?
    Well, since the SATA standard is backward compatible, the SSD should work but with lower performance.

    > 2: what is the best method to copy the current structure of disk and partition?
    There are different options. You can use the Toshiba Recovery disk to reinstall the system on the SSD drive. Personal data (documents, pictures, mp3, etc.) could be copied to a USB flash to move disk of the SDS.

    You can also create an image of your partitions and after installing the SSD drive, you can use the image file to recover partitions

    In some cases, manufacturers of SSDS provides tools/software specific to a product such procedure too.

    I am not concerned about the start time that you want to use the SSD for video editing, so I don't anticipate using the SSD instead of the c"" drive.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Well, this will speed up the startup time of your machine a lot but for editing video may not help much. In any case the SATA III (or 3) is backward compatible with SATA II (or 2) and SATA I (or 1). You're probably on the price/cost. A little program called PC Wizard will tell you the speed of the disk on your computer controller:

    You can download it from the following link:

  • Lenovo z570 SATA III?

    Can someone please tell me, if I can get a SSD SATA III (6 gb/s) on a Lenovo z570?
    This laptop has an Intel HM65 chipset, which should work with a SATA III SSD.

  • Satellite L850-117 - support SATA III

    I have a plan to change my old hard drive with the new SATA III SSD.

    I searched Toshiba homepage on spec if it supports SATA III, but it is very difficult to find this kind of information. If I understand correctly, we must support SATA III for the full implementation of the DSS.

    The laptop is Toshiba Satellite l850-117, Sandy Bridge (32nm Technology), by Googling it I found a few answers that if I have a Sandy Bridge, I also have SATA III support.

    From the BIOS I can only change 'best performance' or 'better life' for HDD/SDD, nothing on the SATA versions.

    It's the best spec I found so far

    I have USB 3.0 support, I guess that's a good sign, but I want to make sure I get full performance out of it, if spending a lot of money on large SSD.

    Can someone give me an advice?

    + The message was edited: broken link has been removed.

    Hello

    Why you n t install some diagnostic tools material like Everest Home Edition or another tool like SENECA Sisoft.
    The two would be able to provide all the details and all information about the properties of material and pieces of equipment.

    The L850 series is equipped with different material parts, but usually the ODD controller and the HARD drive is connected to the chipset (Port of Cougar / Panther point) and the chipset is connected to the processor (Sandy Bridge / Ivy Bridge)

    However, in my view and from my own experience, the SATA ODD interface would support 150Mbyte/s max. I don't know about the HARD m drive but I guess it could be 300Mbyte/s (SATA II)

    But please share the results provided by one of the tools mentioned.

  • Dv6 - 6153cl supports hard drives SATA III?

    I have a problem with my laptop and I think I've narrowed the problem down to the HARD drive. I want to replace and update, but I don't know what drives can I use.

    I would like to know if I can install a SATA III HARD disk in my computer laptop dv6 - 6153cl. From what I can tell, it currently has an installed SATA II HDD. Can I switch from SATA III or am I stuck with SATA II?

    Download the SATA-III. Even if the motherboard supports only SATA-II (not true in your case), you can use the SATA-III drives. SATA is fully backward compatible. But, yet again, your motherboard HM65 chipset that supports support SATA-III. A good rule of thumb is that if it has USB 3.0 is also SATA-III. Not 100% true but terribly close to true.

  • L420 SATA III 600 MB/s

    Hello guys-Lenovo

    I plan to install an SSD in my Lenovo laptop, L420. But I don't know if the SATA port will support SATA 3 (600 MB/s), if it only supports SATA 2, I think think I would consider buying a new laptop.

    Another quistion: is it possible to get a Bay to the Bay of DVD, so that it would be possible to install a HDD here rather than the DVD, I never use the DVD, and if I can get a fast SSD for start-up etc and a big 1 TB in the Bay, it would be wonderful DVD.

    Thank you for your time.

    Markus

    Hello! HARD drive Bay supports SATA III speeds, so all SATA III SSD will be fully used.

    Regarding the DVD slot, it also supports SATA III speeds, and you can use a shopping cart to replace the DVD, but no matter what HARD drive you will place there will not be bootable. No problem, but for any other use (storage, etc.). A caddy with SATA connectors and height of 12.7 mm SATA is compatible.

    One problem aesthetic is the bezel of the caddy that is flat, but you could replace that with the DVD bezel and your L420 will maintain its looks from the side.

    Thank you
    Paulo

    Hello

    SATA-III was introduced in Sandy Bridge chipset (Intel with the 2nd generation 6 series I have Core CPU).
    The laptop seems to be equipped with the Mobile Chipset Intel QM67.
    These chipset supports SATA 6 Gbit/s for 2 Ports and 3 Gbps to 4 Ports.

    But the SATA controller is also compatible to the bottom so that you could use disk SATA III SSD or HDD in SATA II controller too.
