• Qosmio X 770 - 13F - can I built it second internal HDD/SSD?

  Hello from the snowy mountains of Savoie!

  My computer is a Qosmio X 770 - 13F.

  I am disappointed because it runs very slowly (I have the 'windows 7 explore bar green problem'...)
  I expanded the 8 GB RAM: no change to the actual speed.

  In this computer, there is only one hard drive (750 GB, 5400 RPM).
  The evaluation of access disk hard windows is only 5.9!

  There is an empty place next to the hard drive, so I wonder if it is possible or not to add a second internal hard drive or even an SSD.

  I searched for this user manual: no answer!
  And on the web, I have also not found response.
  Perhaps on this forum?

  Thank you and I apologize for my 'English amateur' (I'm french!)

  In General, it is not easy to discuss the performance of the laptop. All of us use notebook with a specific setup and preinstalled applications that can run in the background and slowing down the reaction of notebooks.

  All I can say is that you must check the OS configuration and disable some unnecessary applications to start with Windows. Also disable the Windows automatic update installation. This can also slow down cell phone operations.

  HDD/SSD
  I n t have this laptop Qosmio but it will be interesting to follow: when you remove the cover and check empty place is available HDD/SSD connector or not?

• 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.

• LY580 - installation of windows 8 on SSD

  I would like to install windows 8 on my SSD instead of upgrading my copy of windows at the standard C disk. However, during the installation of windows 8, I says that it cannot install on this disk because it has a MBR partition table and EFI systems require GPT disks. When I try to change that in disk management, I note that the SSD is not configured as a full disc, but is rather a volume of disk 0 with the HARD drive. How would I change this so that I can install windows 8 on this drive?

  Thanks for any help

  I had the same problem. Guess that's the problem with the config RapidDrive. PC with RapidDrive are not upgrading to Windows 8.

  I suggest:

  Quick tool allows to separate your HARD and SSD drive

  Pure install Windows 8 on SSD

  Go to the link below and read the last post on the page by BinaryInk

  These instructions will help you activate Windows 8, even if you only have an upgrade key. (That worked for me)

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_8-windows_install/Windows-8-Pro-upgrade-Pro...

  and use the SSD and HDD separately for now.

  Finally wait for Lenovo release RapiDrive for windows 8 as promised.

• Installation of Windows 7 on SSD HP drive

  We have three HP 8300 Elite SFF machines in our headquarters. All came with Windows 7 pre-installed on the hard drives of 500 GB.

  I bought two genuine HP SSD drives (with 120 GB Intel), but cannot install Windows 7 on them because the provided installation HP discs report that the new disks are too small!

  I contacted HP about this and told me that the recovery disks only supports hard drives, initially installed on the machine, (i.e. 500 GB) or a larger size. I'd like a 960 GB SSD, but I'm not too keen on the cost!

  The obvious solution would be to buy packs of sale at retail of Windows 7, but I hesitate to buy expensive software when I already have a license.

  I had thought to resize the partition of HARD drive, less than 120 GB and copy of data across using a disk image but the facility could be optimized for a hard drive instead of the SSD, and it would probably go to default defragmentation!

  There is no work around that I could use to install Windows 7 from the restore disks original, I want to get these new discs work?

  Any advice welcome.

  Nigel.

  Please see "how to install Windows 7 without the disc" for instructions how to install a new copy of Windows 7 on your computer by using the key of HP OEM Windows 7 SLP/SLIC of factory (not the 25-digit number on the COA), the activation OEM HP certificate factory and BIOS of the computer. Please see below for step by step instructions;

  (1) download and unzip ABR Beta with Windows 7 Support. This is the homepage of ABR for Windows Vista. Please follow the section "How to use" for information and instructions on how to use it. These steps also apply to Windows 7. Perform the 'activation' backup and save the certificates and keys retrieved in several external locations. The key and the certificate for each computer should be the same. (He gets the certificate of your factory installed OS and HP preinstalled OEM factory original key)

  (2) install Windows 7, after all the guests as needed. Don't let not Windows try to scoped. Run ABR 'restoration of activation' to 'install' the previously saved until the product key and the certificate. Make sure that Windows is activated, repeat "restoration of activation" until Windows 7 is activated. (It "installs" pre-installed HP OEM factory original key and certificate from your factory installed OS to your new installation of Windows. This HP OEM key and certificate are what allows your computer to HP be factory preactivated.)

  (3) install all drivers from the computer. These can be found on the support page HP for your computer, or you can find newer drivers on the various websites of the manufacturers of component... Intel, NVidia, AMD/ATI, Ralink, Realtek, etc..

• SSD internal on iMac mid 2011

  Hello. I'm editing a short film, and because of the length, I need to add a SSD drive on my system. As far as I am concerned, I have two options:

  1. Buy an external SSD drive with interface thunderbolt.
  2. Add an internal SSD but also to keep my HARD drive.

  The first option should give me a real speed around 350 MB/s. I was wondering:

  • how fast I would get about an SSD internal?
  • is it dangerous for my system to have both drives as overheating?
  • It is worth?

  Thank you in advance.

  don't think that love at first sight would be a limitation in terms of speed

• Installation of Windows XP on a second disk hard SATA and booting from it.

  History:
  I have a two year old computer and it becomes slow to start.  Its a P4 dual core 2.8GHz with 3 GB of RAM and a hard drive SATA 320 G, that left only 60 GB.  I tried to uncheck all unnecessary items at startup using msconfig, but its still quite slow.

  Proposed solution:
  I bought a new HDD SATA of 500G and I thought performing a new installation of Windows XP on the new drive and boot from that.  I want to leave the old disk, as is if I can still access the programs and files that I have on this subject. That said, I will migrate probably all programs and regularly used files on the old drive on a new and let all my media files on the former.  I don't want to copy all just above (picture disc) because it will bring all the junk with her.

  I backed up my important data to an external drive.

  Issues related to the:
  Is there a problem to have windows XP on both drives?  Will I need to do anything to access my old programs on the start menu in a "new window" - what do I have to reinstall or can I just copy them into folder "program files" the new windows?  What is a reasonable way to speed up my machine?

  Thank you very much for your answers.

  You want to move the old SATA disk to controller 1 (although leave of you for now disconnect) and put the new drive on controller 0 and then install XP. Then set the old drive to the secondary SATA controller. You will need to install programs on the new drive; You may not copy or use the old disk. To stay in compliance with the EULA and activate the new XP successfully, you need to remove the old XP and just use the old disk to store data. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Clone HD on SSD (Imac mid-2011)

  Hi, I have an iMac mid-2011 with 1 TB of hard drive and I'll install a SSD 1 TB as a second drive. I think I will clone the HD on the SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner. My question is: can do the clone operation after installing the SSD inside the iMac to speed up the process or I clone the HD before the opening of the iMac with the SSD connected via USB? I have only USB 2.0, I think is going to be very slow in this way... Thank you, Francesco

  Install the internal SSD if that's your plan. Start the computer from the HARD disk, and then use disk utility to partition and format the SSD drive as follows:

  Clone El Capitan on a new disc

  1. Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime, press Command - R until the Apple logo and progress bar appear.
  2. When the Utility Menu appears, select disk utility and click on the continue button.
  3. When disk utility loads select the SSD (generally, the entry Out-bumpy) in the list aside.
  4. Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.
  5. Set the GUID partition scheme.
  6. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
  7. Click on the apply button, then click the fact when it is active.
  8. Select the new SSD, then select restore in the menu editing of disk utility.
  9. In the drop-down menu select the volume that you want to clone - your HARD drive.
  10. Click the apply button to start the process.

  This can take some time depending on the amount of data is transferred. Disk utility also automatically clones Recovery HD from the HDD to the SSD.

  How can I perform a clean installation of Mac OS x for my iMAC, retina 5K late 2014 with drive of Fusion with the intact Recovery HD partition?

  Pure how to install OSX on a Fusion drive and keep the recovery disc function

  These instructions assume that your iMAC partitions or file systems has been damaged and you want to restore to the way most efficiency with fusion drive and the recovery partition, similar to what was built in the factory.

  These instructions work for the iMAC, retina 5K end 2014 version comes with OSX Yosemite. The scores of major drive of the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive has been configured as a logical drive (merger by car).

  WARNING: These instructions here are shared for interest only. Readers to take their own risk by following these instructions. The author is not responsible for any damage caused by following these instructions.

  This is the target disk partitions, and the configuration that we want to achieve.

  Disk0 is the 128 GB SSD - solid state drive and holds the start of the partition (disk0s3)

  Disk1 is the 3.0 to HDD - mechanical transmission and holds the Recovery HD partition.

  There are two EFI partitions to partition table GUID on both hard drives (disk0s1, disk1s1).

  Disk space remaining (partition disk0s2 and disk1s2) are used to create the disc of Fusion 3.1 to named "Macintosh HD".

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 121,3 disk0

  1: disk0s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

  2: Apple_CoreStorage GB LVG 121.0 disk0s2

  Logical volume on disk0s2, disk1s2

  0D807F6E-FB7C-418F-AAF4-EF3EA3525D10

  Fusion unencrypted drive

  Here's how we do it.

  • A. clean reinstallation of Mac OS x.
  • 1. make sure that you back up all your data on the hard drive using Time Machine or other means. The following procedure will delete all data.
  • 2. create the OSX install USB, insert it to the MAC workstation.
  • 3. given that us will be operated on the internal trunk of the reader of the Mac, it must start on OSX install USB (see Y.).
  • 4. in the menu at the top of the screen, select disk utilities.
  • 5. turn highlighted the volume of disk Fusion called "Macintosh HD." Click clear to clean.
  • 6. If his success, then go ahead to install OSX new to that partition, as usual.
  • 7. otherwise, if it does not, that means fusion drive has been damaged.
  • 8 follow the instructions below to fix it.
  • . B. Split disc Fusion in the physical hard disks
  • 1. Since us will be operated on the internal drive of the Mac trunk, assumes that we already have boot up OSX install USB drive (see Y.).
  • 2. in the menu at the top of the screen, select utilities and Terminal.
  • 3. on the screen of the terminal type:
  • Cs diskutil list.
  • You will see something similar to the screen below.
  • 4 copy the long string after Logical Volume and replace the UUID with it in the following command to delete the logical volume of the disc fusion (aka coreStorage of logical volume):
  • diskutil deletevolume cs UUID
  • For example:
  • diskutil deletevolume E59B5A99-F8C1-461A-AE54-6EC11B095161 cs
  • 5 copy the long string after the logical volume group and replace the UUID with it in the following command to remove the drive (aka coreStorage) fusion:
  • diskutil cs remove UUID
  • p. ex. diskutil cs remove E03B3F30-6A1B-4DCD-9E14-5E927BC3F5DC
  • 6. at this stage, the fusion drive has been deleted, and hardsisk SSD and mechanical hard drive will be reappear in diskutil or separate records.
  • 7. If step 5 or 6 takes more than 30 minutes to complete, this means that the fusion drive has been corrupted. You can follow the commands below to clear the table to partition the hard way. First command clears the SSD drive, second command erases the HARD drive.
  • The command does not return a response, after 1 minute, press Ctrl + Z to complete orders. 1 minute is enough data to code and erase the partition table on the disk.
  • cat/etc/random >/dev/disk0
  • cat/etc/random >/dev/disk1
  • . C install a new copy of Mac OS x for the hard drive HDD and tested this disk partition hard recovery work.
  • 1. go on diskutil to create a partition called Macintosh HD HDD hard drive using all the space there.
  • 2 do the same with the mechanical hard drive.
  • 3. follow the usual procedure to boot from the installation of OSX USB and install a new copy of Mac OS x hard disk SSD.
  • 4. This will create the correct priming of the partitions, recovery hard drive partitions and PSX partitions hard disk HDD.
  • 5. once the installation is complete, test if OSX may start successfully, but no need to go through the initial MAC OS x didn't put in place that we're going to waste this and do the installation again later.
  • 6. we must now test if the recovery hard drive partition works.
  • 7. reboot for hard drive recovery (see X - by pressing command and R at the same time during boot right after that you hear sound start and release only a few seconds after you see the apple logo and the progress bar for loading...)
  • 8. it is important to test and make sure that the partition of hard drive recovery.
  • D. recreate the fusion drive
  • 1 since us will be operated on the internal trunk of the reader of the Mac, it must start on OSX install USB (see Y.).
  • 2. in the menu at the top of the screen, select utilities and Terminal.
  • 3
  . on the screen of the terminal type:
• diskutil list.
• You should find that we have a list of disk group hard physical volume only, no logic here still.
• 4. you will see something similar to the screen below.
• 5. search for the largest partition on the SSD hard drive, which should be close to the maximum size of HDD to the SSD (121 G, for example) and mark the name of the device, this will usually be something like/dev/disk0s2
• 6. search the largest disk partition mechanical forming fusion with the SSD hard drive. This should be close to the maximum size of the mechanical hard drive (for example 3 TB) hard disk and mark the name of the device, this will usually be something like/dev/disk1s2
• 7
. Now let's create the merger in car (group alias logical volume) in the Terminal, type: diskutil cs create nom_lecteur driveIDs
• The number of the driveIDs is unlimited, it may be a number of discs, or a number of disk partitions. Always put the faster discs first, for example for our SSD disk0s2
• For example:
• diskutil cs create fusiondrive disk0s2 disk1s2
• diskutil - the version of disk utility command line.
  cs - This calls for Core Storage, which is necessary for the merger.
  create - creates a basic storage group.
  nom_lecteur - is the name of the drive and how you want that he
• appear in the disk utility (not the Finder - that comes later). You can call it what you like; in our example, we named our Fusion table "Fusion".

driveIDs - Here is the Player IDs of the readers you want as part of your Fusion table, separated by a space. In our example, they are 'disk0' and 'disk1', but it may be different in your configuration.
• It is important that the faster hard drive appears first in the command, which in our case the disk0s2 (a partition in the SSD). In this way, drive fusion will use this disk as primary and the cache. The second disc in the command, in this case disk1s2 (a partition on the HARD disk). The secondary disk (HARD drive) is used to store less frequently used files.  Otherwise, the fusion drive performance will be worse that it is designed for.
• 8. you will see something like below appear on the screen:
• Creation Volume logical storage of kernel
• Move isk0s2 storage of carrots
• Disk1s2 of switching for the storage of carrots
• Waiting for logical volume group appear
• Discovered the new group of logical volumes 'DBFEB690-107B-4EA6-905B-2971D10F5B53 '.
• Store LVG UUID: DBFEB690-107B-4EA6-905B-2971D10F5B53
• Finished CoreStorage operation
• 9 copy to the bottom of the string after "Discovering new Volume Logic Group" using the command + C
• 10. next, create the partition of the merger (alias logical volume) drive named "Macintosh HD".
• In the Terminal, type: diskutil createVolume groupString jhfs cs + size volumeName
• For example:
• Diskutil createVolume DBFEB690-107B-4EA6-905B-2971D10F5B53 jhfs cs + 'Macintosh HD' 100%
• diskutil - once again, this is the version of disk utility command line.
• cs - called the basic storage functions, which are necessary for this arrangement.
• createVolume - this is the command to create the storage area real for the reader who is represented by an icon on your desktop.
• groupstring - this is the long alphanumeric string you copied in the previous step. It identifies the table you created such as getting a volume placed on it.
• jhfs + -the format of the disc. It is Apple (journaled) extended Format, which is recommended for drives with an operating system installed on it.
• VolumeName - the actual name of the volume, how it should appear under the icon. If there is a space in the name, you must put the full name in quotes ("name") or put a slash before the (name Drive\) space. In our example, we made these, naming our volume "Macintosh HD".
• size : this is the size of the volume. In our example, we had a 1.1 TB drive. We used '1100g' to describe what 1100 GB (1.1 TB to base 10). Otherwise, we could have also used 1.1 T or even 100% as a size.
• 11. go to diskutil to verify that you can see this new partition on the list.
• 12. test by erasing all the data from it.
• 13. then you can go ahead to start on the USB drive to install OSX and install a new copy of Mac OS x on it.
• 14. This will allow you to keep the recovery disk feature.
• X. how Prime to recover partition
• Press and hold the command and button R set immediately after hearing the bells to boot.
• Only release it 2 seconds after you see the Apple logo on the screen and the progress bar for the start. This will start the partition of hard drive recovery.
• Y. how-to boot OSX install USB
• Press and hold the command and the optionkey together immediately after hearing the ringing of boot.
• Only release it 2 seconds after you see the Apple logo on the screen and it will give you a list of startup disk choice, choose the OSX install USB to boot from.

• Computer guard reboot during the installation of windows 7

  Hello world

  I just bought a desktop computer and put up my car, it consists of a z - 87 asus mother board I just bought with 32 GB Patriot memory, processor intel i7 and when I install windows and get to the point where it asks me to put in the name of the computer, and as soon as I hit next will be the remote computer.

  at first I thought it was the hard drive, so I bought a new 256 SSD disk scan and its still doing the same thing.

  What should I do, all the parts in the PC are brand new.

  Thank you

  Moved from the center of Community Participation.

  If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  Reduce the amount of RAM installed on a single key and proceed with the installation of Windows 7. If the installation is successful, you can reinstall after the extra RAM.

  Also, if you have more than one attached internal storage device, disconnect all but the target device where Windows 7 is installed.

• Monitor goes into sleep mode during the installation of Windows 7

  Hello, I'm doing a new install of Windows 7 pro on a new SSD. He gets regarding to reset for the second time during the installation, and just before showing the page where you name the computer and configure user accounts, the monitor goes to sleep and won't return. only way to recover is to reset the machine, only to do exactly the same thing again. Anyone know what could be the cause? I used the same disk of windows for many expenses format / install Windows after hardware upgrades in the past and this has never happened before. Can provide the complete specifications of the system if necessary. Help, please!

  Hi Danpedro,

  I see that the screen goes into sleep mode, in the last step of installing Windows 7. I'll help you with this problem.

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2. you have an external display driver card attached to the motherboard?

  3. you format the hard disk during Windows 7 installation?

  Method 1.

  Disconnect any external devices and restart the computer to see if it helps complete the installation of Windows 7.

  Method 2.

  If you have a driver to attached external display card, then you can disable this external driver in the BIOS and check if that helps complete the installation of Windows 7.

  Warning of the BIOS:

  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  I see OWC has a drive and a kit that are certainly compatible, but the Samsung EVO and PRO seem to get better feedback. Any thoughts or ideas are appreciated!

  Get the OWC
