Installation of SSD drive and the noise of the fan to the MacBook Pro?

Hello

Just replaced the stock 5400 RPM HARD drive in my MacBook Pro mid-2012 with an SSD 480 GB Sandisk and now the fan makes a loud noise. Sounds like it's revving at full speed. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you.

You can try Macs with Intel processors: System management controller (SMC) reset and see if that fixes the problem. Unless you make a mistake in the reassembly, the two should be independent. On the other hand, it could be something in the design of the SSD. Personally, I would like to replace it with an OWC or OCZ.

To check if the two are somehow connected try to replace the old HDD to see if the fan slows down. If it then reinstalls the SSD, making attention to do correctly and re - test. See how to install the ribbon cable short connecting the drive to the motherboard. It's easy to get the pins on the misaligned ribbon cable.

  • Installation internal SSD drive and storage of documents on external hard drive

    Hello!

    I have an older iMac and I want to speed it up by installing a SSD drive.  Currently, my internal hard drive has 2 TB of storage, and I don't want to pay for one SSD of this size.  I consider the use of an external drive for my files and using the SSD internal applications and the operating system.  Can this work?  What is the internal SSD of minimum size I should get, more or less, according to my number of apps?   The documents will open at a decent speed?   It is up to me to use an external hard drive with a Firewire instead of USB connection?  Thank you!

    Hi Dan:

    Apps it really depends how much you use and what types of data you want to keep in vs SSD HARD drive.

    120-128 GB SSD: USD price: 60-70 price range.

    for 250/256 GB SSD: about USD: price range of 80-90

    for 500/512 GB SSD: about USD: price range of 130-150

    An external 2 TB drive: for laptop (USB bus-powered - usually 2.5 "HDD included): 90 us $, for the largest 3.5" Office style HDD: 90 USD

    For me:

    I store all my music on the external network drive (RAID 1 configuration, 2 TB, and 50 percent full this time), all my documents/pictures are still in my 500 GB SSD.

    I don't have much video projects on my SSD.

    I used about 200 GB in my internal SSD flash drive

    Good luck finding your best solution.

  • Update hard drive in the MacBook Pro (early 2015)

    What type of SSD will work in a MacBook Pro 13 inch screen of early 2015? I was told by someone that Apple no longer use the SATA drives and they now have their own exclusive hard drives and hard drive connectors. Can someone clarify this for me? I want to upgrade a 256 GB to 500 GB drive.

    New mac systems use style card SSD instead of 2.5 in block style (search for mSATA and M2 style SSD).  Apple uses a protocol of interface owner so you can not buy any card SSD on shelf.

    Another use main contributor a low profile SD card like this http://www.microcenter.com/product/441001/128GB_SDHC_Flash_Memory_Module that can stay connected to the SD slot card all the time and not poke out.  Also external fencing to swap nu-disks for a virtually unlimited storage.

  • Want to download 10 W but not able to do that, during installation, a problem arises and the previous operating system is restored.

    My laptop is preinstalled with Windows 7 Home Basic.  At the free launch Windows 10 I downloaded the same and after 2 months, the hard drive crashed.  The repair shop trying to fix formatting, but could not revive.  This is why I bought a new hard drive and repair charge shot Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

    Now, I want to download 10 W but not able to do that, during installation, a problem arises and the previous operating system has been restored.  When I posted the question about how to solve this problem, I was told to try the download by way of USB/ISO file.

    Now my question is that

    one) can I reload Windows 7 Home basic as I have the product key?

    (b) I can then download Windows 10 according to the normal procedure?

    I'm not tech savvy, afraid to download files in USB and then load into the laptop, so this question.

    Concerning

    S Subramanian

    Original title: Windows 7 Home basic

    You can directly download Windows 10. Windows 7 complete edition currently installed is not genuine.

    When you upgraded from a previous version of Windows, what happened is that (your PC) hardware will get a digital right, a unique signature of the computer which is stored on the Microsoft Activation servers. The real Windows 7 or Windows 8 license you were using previously will be exchanged with a key to the diagnosis.

    Whenever you need to reinstall Windows 10 on this machine, go just to reinstall Windows 10. It automatically reactivates.

    Therefore, there is no need to know or get a product key, if you must reinstall Windows 10, you can use your Windows 7 or Windows 8 product key or use the reset function in Windows 10.

  • Partitioning hard drive, I want to spend 30/40 GB drive and the remaining space for the creation of other partitions.

    I created a recovery disc for my system that I bought the new laptop.
    It consist of 500 GB HARD drive, now the problem is the C - drive which is my WIN7 Home Basic installed occupies 400 GB of space and the D-drive has only 25 GB.
    My problem is I want to partition the drive C so that the other player must occupy the space according to my condition.
    But here its only gives me half the space to shrink.
    I mean, when I opened diskmgmt to shrink, C this is 200 GB disk space allotted to me.
    Medium I can use this space to create other partitions, but what I want is, I want to spend 30/40 GB C drive and the remaining space for the creation of other partitions.
    Help, please... Thnks...

    That's what we tried to tell you. An OEM installation does not lend itself to change and having to clear guarantees for re-setup means that you must be quite certain that you have other reliable ways to re-setup.

    If you want to dabble with Linux or dual boot, you should buy a complete commercial edition of Windows 7 that will give you more flexibility and accept that for drivers etc, you're on your own...

    I need to reinstall my CS6 on my PC.  I installed it on this computer for 2 years now, but anyway half of subsequently moved to one of my hard drives and the other half is on the other.  I'm sure to remove both drives and reinstall on the larger hard drive?  I am a student and single MOM, and I can't afford the monthly subscription for the CC7.  If it does not somehow, I'll miss my classes.

    If the largest is the primary drive then it is safer than any other installation option, but all uninstall/reinstall can present problems.  If the software currently works very well, I would say that leave well enough alone if your future depends on software work.  Before you delete anything, remember to disable by opening an application and by choosing Help-> Deactivate.

    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.
