Interface of SSDS on HP h8xt

Hello

I just bought a HP Pavilion HPE computer desktop Intel® Core™ i7-3770 h8xt

I start to add an SSD, but want to know what kind of interface the machine supports? It is a SATA 3? Can anyone help?

Thank you

h8xt is not a computer HP model but rather a series of computer models may use different hardware. Please provide the full model or product number of the HP computer in question for the most accurate possible response.

Assuming that you bought something like the desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8 - 1360 t CTO, the card mother IPMMB-FM (Formosa) indicate that there are 6 x SATA (SATA 0-1 @ 6 Gb/s aka SATAIII and SATA 2-5 @ 3 Gb/s aka SATAII) connectors

  • Laptop: how to make my laptop for one SSD

    Hey everybody,

    I would spend my hard drive of the laptop to an SSD, what are some of the things that I should look for to upgrade successfully, and this may affect my 10 Windows license?

    Thank you

    Bill

    For some people, upgrade a laptop to an SSD can be like diving into the deep end of a pool.

    An SSD upgrade may involve extensive disassembly of your laptop, depending on the model.

    Some models have hard disks that are easier to access than others.

    There are the small, but important detail involving accepting the risk of damaging your computer laptop and breach of warranty.

    You will need to decide if you want to migrate your operating system to the new SSD or perform a new installation of Windows.

    If you have already upgraded the operating system of the Windows 10 laptop, your laptop will have a digital entitlement on license of Windows servers.

    It's the new Microsoft license model that makes a continuous activation of the operating system.

    As part of the installation where you see a box to put the 25 character license activation key, there is a link below that says, I don't have a key.

    That's what you need to click to continue installation.

    The type of SSD that will be compatible with your laptop depends on some things.

    The first is how your laptop comes to market.

    The second is that your laptop is an entry level or a top model with advanced features.

    The third is based on these interfaces on the card system of your laptop.

    Your laptop may have only SATA ports or it may also have an m2 or a mini PCIe connector.

    Older notebooks (before 2009) will have only 2.5 possible SATA SSD products as an SSD upgrade option.

    It is also dependent on the interface this SSD on your laptop system board and the type of memory and the controller from that your laptop is compatible.

    Which can be determined in several ways.

    The easiest way I know is to take the guesswork out of the purchase of upgrade.

    Which can be done using the information for one SSD manufacturer whose reputation is based on the provision of accurate information to potential customers.

    Check online on the Web from Crucial.com website to see what they offer as guaranteed products compatible SSD for your notebook.

    With the newer models which are eventually provided with SSD, the Maintenance and Service of Guide disks for each laptop will usually specify what memory and type of SSD drive is compatible.

    The Service Guide which has this information and maintenance lies in the support for your laptop computer portal in the section user guide.

    Use the product number of your laptop + support as keywords in a Google or other search engine search for the portal.

    Memory Crucial site is a great place to find compatible SSD products for your laptop.

  • Upgrade SSD for Dell XPS 15 9550

    Hello

    I have Dell XPS 9550 with configuration 32 GB SSD + 500 GB HARD disk. I want to upgrade SSD for more space avaliablity.

    But I don't know what type of SSD, I'll need to buy. Also, I read XPS 15 to repair. There are two chapter for the removal and replacement of the SSD in the maintenance manual. First chapter of half-length SSD, second chapter SSD full length.

    What type of SSD is mounted in my laptop? Half or full length?

    How can I identify necessary SSD for me in stores (dimensions, label, etc.)?

    What interface for SSD do I need?  PCIE or SATA?

    What is the map? M2.2280 or PCI-E AIC (-expansion card)?

    Thanks in advance!

    These are all numbers of Dell and descriptions.

    The system uses a PCIe (or is if you want a faster player), 2280 m2 or small size.  UNLESS you buy directly from Dell, it is best NOT to buy versions OEM of SSD (Samsung end pieces in a '1' vs '0' for details).

    OEM spare parts are usually not compatible to end-users by the manufacturer.

    Because you will probably install the operating system for the new SSD, don't forget to make a recovery media set, you need to load the operating system on the larger capacity disk - what you have now is just a cache for the main hard drive.

  • Get the most out of my old Mac

    I have an old Mac with OSX 10.5.8 - assuming that I am not in a position to replace the right now, what is the best performance I can get out, via upgrades etc. ?? Any help appreciated

    I have an old Mac running 10.5.8.  It's a Power Mac G5, and I could use it as my Mac primary (for most things), if my Intel Mac mini came down.  It has 4 GB of RAM; It could go much higher (up to 16 GB), but 4GB seems to be more than enough for the race of Leopard.  It has a 128 GB SSD as the startup disk, and the other internal drive is a hard drive 2 TB.  The currently-installed video card is stock - nothing special, good enough for my application.

    It is connected to the TV in the living room for display; It is "hidden" behind the HDTV.  It uses my system stereo as its speakers.  It acts as my network storage "data dump".  I can watch videos on web sites like YouTube (although less of it since getting an Apple TV), as long as the web site uses based on HTML5 video (not Flash video-based).  The latest version of iTunes for Mac PowerPC (10.6.3) still work with current iTunes game service, so I can listen to my library of music complete iTunes on this subject.  Since it's next to my stereo system, I did and still do audio recording (using an older version of GarageBand).  For example, to scan tapes and old LPs of music.  I also use it to record audio from my TV decoder.

    I don't know if you have an iMac G4 or G5.  If it is a G5, it can substantially benefit an SSD, because it has a SATA interface.  For a G4, because of its old PATA interface, an SSD is probably less effective to increase overall performance.  But it would probably improve things like startup time, and it can benefit an iMac (G4 or G5) by producing less heat and making less power compared to a standard 3.5-inch hard drive (less stress on the aging system).  Certainly maximize its RAM.  Storage and RAM - you can't really do anything else internally, since this is an iMac.

    For the software, Use TenFourFox as their web browser.  Safari for 10.5.8 is old and does not have to be updated over the years.  TenFourFox is a special version of FireFox, actively maintained by a dedicated developer, optimized for Mac PowerPC under Tiger or Leopard.

    TenFourFox, that's what makes my PowerMac G5 can still be used as a computer 'every day', more than any of its hardware upgrades.

    You are the very welcome.

    I think it'll do the trick.

    I added a 330 Intel SSD SATA III in my HP Elitebook 6930p business book, which has the Mobile Intel 4 series chipset, also SATA II controllers, and subjectively, it makes a very nice improvement upon startup and access time.

  • T400 SATA and SSD interface speed

    Can someone please give me exact info on T400 to interface SATA it is SATA-I or SATA-II?

    Intel SATA controller onboard is ICH9M-E/M and this controller supports SATA-II (3 GB/s) - documentation of Intel, but in all the docs on T400 techniques it is mentioned only SATA-I (1.5Gpbs).

    I ask because I intend to replace SSD HARD drive. Normally, it wouldn't be nice to pass around a lot of money for the SSD with 230/180 MB read/write speed and experience after the replacement speed limited to 140/140 MB.

    yesterday, I wrote to the German support and asked if the t400 presents the transfer Cap because I would like to move on to a intel x 25-m with a 250 MB/s read speed and response came already today. They said that the transfer rate is provided entirely / is supported in full. I hope they're right.

  • WHICH SSD INTERFACE?

    I know someone will say how dumb this is, but here goes I have a m17xr2 with victory. 8.1 and a 1 TB hard drive I want to install a ssd but am confused I see some who say sata-sata 1-2 and 3 so that you buy or they all will work with my R2?

    THANKS for any help.

    RAY

    I'm sorry but I don't think that is correct.  Most if not all SSDS are now SATA 3, but it is supposed to be backward compatible with SATA 2 specifications and 1.x.  Example if you buy a HARD SATA 3 drive and plug it into a port SATA 2, the speed of the data on the drive will slow down to match the bus speed of the SATA specification on the motherboard.  Another example is RAM.  People have bought 1600 Mhz RAM and installed in their computers as max at 1333 Mhz.   The RAM is slowing down just to match the appropriate speed available on the motherboard.  Now I will coincide that SSDS can be picky, at least they were earlier.

  • 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?

    If it works, it will be almost double the read and write rates, I understand.

    RAID offers for the SECOND and the following read/write of the same LARGE file acceleration and not otherwise. Any intervention of reading or writing in different files eliminates the acceleration. Any acceleration is much more dramatic on rotating discs, because it can eliminate some of the 10 ms or more long 'dead time' while the reader is a new track and the controller must wait for the correct data go in the position under the read/write head. Acceleration on the low-latency SSDS is far less dramatic.

    The system drive / boot is particularly bad choice for a RAID, it reads and writes small random files in all directions. Who will get no acceleration.

    You can best be served by creating a workflow that allows separate readers for the source files to Destination files, files of zero and drive system / boot.

    --------

    RAID is usually done on the disks that are exactly or nearly the same. Too slow response of one of the discs can cause the RAID failure.

    RAID support has been removed the disc utility GUI in 10.11 ElCapitan, probably because too many casual users got into trouble with the built-in GUI functions. You need to use the diskutil command in the Terminal, or buy the SoftRAID(4) package.
