Is on a Pavilion DV9700 SATA I or SATA II HARD drive controller

I just installed a SSD SATA II 120 GB in my Pavilion DV9700.  I wanted to know if my HARD drive is SATA II before the firmware update.

Yes the dv9700 is compatible for the SATA-II drives.

  • Satellite P200-13Z - upgrade the hard drive - can I use SATA II hard drives?

    I have a Satellite P200-13Z with simple standard Fujitsu 120 GB SATA hard drive. I want to change this to a RPM SATA II 250 GB Western Digital 7200 RPM drive. This interface SATA laptop does support SATA II? Thank you very much!

    Not your portable computer does not support SATA II.

    However, you can buy the SATA II hard drive and put it in your laptop. Only way to get it going is to restrict the new speed of SATA HDD, I accelerate. To do this is to introduce a jumper on the drive to restrict it to SATA I speeds up. Once it's done put in your laptop and viola, it works.

    Good luck, but I would like to get a toshiba technician to install it if its under warranty. It's for your own good, so you don't turn your laptop into a boat anchor.

  • Advice on moving 1.5 to SATA 2 HARD drive and put the Samsung SSD on SATA 1...

    My plan is to make a DVD of W10 MS

    Power off

    Unplug 1.5 to boot/storage HDD SATA 1

    Connect Samsung SSD SATA 1

    Turning and fresh install MS W10 on SSD and let it update

    Then, can I plug 1.5 to SATA 2 HARD drive and make it just my storage via disk management?

    What steps/tips to make this an easy transition?

    Paul

    It should not matter if you use SATA1 or SATA2, but there are always exceptions.

    I got a motherboard with two different SATA [Intel & Marvel] controllers with different speeds. It is unusual, so the safest bet is to use the same SATA connector for your new SSD that you used for your old HDD.

    Since you have two bootable disks, you may need to go into EUFI/BIOS and set your boot order to boot from the new SSD first.

    You should be able to access the files on the old drive without problems, but I've seen on occasion where you will get an "Access denied" error due to 'permissions' problems, especially if the original/OS disk has been protected by a password. If you have any questions, you can create a linux live boot disk "to access your files.

    Instead keep you the old drive as is, with an operating system and boot volumes on it, you must backup/move your important files to your new SSD then remove all volumes on the old disk, create a volume, and then format to use as a data/backup drive.

    The official win7 ISO images can be downloaded here;

    You download the version installed on your HP, burn a dvd using ISO, software, the burning at the slowest speed, on quality discs, then install it using the Win Key on the label on your PC.

    You will then need to install specific drivers of HP, not of the preinstalled HP software will be at your disposal

  • Pavilion Entertainment PC dv6: need a new hard drive for the dv6-1230us

    My question is about the HP Pavilion Entertainment dv6-1230us PC. Recently, it was abandoned, and since then it has been giving me the following message if poster every time it starts.

    Not found boot device

    Please install an operating system on your hard drive.

    Hard Drisk (3F0)

    F2 System Diagnostics

    "For more information, please visit: www.hp.com/go/techcenter/startup"

    I know it's important to run the hard drive test, but when I run the diagnostics of the system for the Test drive, it says:
    "HDD test failed.
    There is no hard drive.

    I was also on the proposed site and even after "reset my BIOS to default", it recommends running the hard drive test, which does not simply because it has not really helped me the "there is no hard drive. There was a YouTube video that I came across thus suggested pulling the hard drive and diconnecting and reconnect to correct the error in this case that the son is detached, but that no longer works.

    SO, I don't know if there is anything more that I can do, I guess that the hard drive is super dead.

    It comes with a Seagate ATA hard drive. I was wondering if I could replace it with a SATA hard drive or should it be an ATA? (Even has the material capacity to support a SATA drive?)

    Also, it is even useful to replace the hard drive? Should I get a new laptop instead? This laptop is used mainly for just browsing online and checking emails.

    Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    Yes, the hard drive is so dead, that he not yet register as a hard drive. The dv6-1000 series certainly uses SATA, not ATA drives so I'm not sure of what you see. You can replace it with any drive SATA 2.5 inch width 9.5 mm thick.

    Watch this video between: 53 and: 59 and see that it's a SATA drive. If yours is different, so you have confused with your model.

    Hard disks are a small fraction of the cost of a laptop and if your what it takes to, I would say that to replace the hard drive rather than buy a new one.

    It is an excellent drive at a great price:

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive replacement

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC, and I had problems with hard disk of the guarantee period. for example I buy in 2010 and had a hard drive replaced in 2011 and 2012. Next time, he failed in 2013 (almost 11 months apart on average).

    The last time it failed, the warranty has expired so I thought to give it a try as employment through fixing/amortization of bad sector seagate software, Toshiba... that came out of Smart Drive Error.

    I use the HARD drive for some time now, but want to be ready for the next round and I don't know that he's going to be gone for good next time.

    Current HARD disk is 640 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive (replaced in 2012). HP 621046-001 manufacturer.

    When replacing, can I use ANY hard drive 640 GB? Can I use a hard drive that is higher than 640 GB? Different RPM?

    Any suggestions on hard drive?

    The recovery discs I had received with the replacement drive did not work properly. I had to use the first game I had created just after I bought the laptop.

    Thank you.

  • HP Pavilion dv9000 - XP does not see the HARD drive, how to install it?

    Hello

    I guess that somewhere there is a step-by-step detailed guide.

    Thank you

    Enter the BIOS by pressing F10 at startup. If you have the option of Bios Setup to disable the native sata mode, XP will install without problem, no sata driver needed. It will be on the tab of the System Configuration.


    If you do not have the setting in the Bios, it's the driver sata for your machine:

  • Pavilion a6500f: can I use my old hard drive as a second drive to the new I install.

    I have a Pavilion a6500f I can access is no longer as he continues to tell me there are registry errors.  My recovery disk (I got a) or do a hard reset or else he will start.  It came with a window that says recovery system or start Windows normally.  I get a new hard drive to it and have a whole new Windows 7 installed.  The thing is that I don't want to lose all my stuff on the old hard drive.  So my question is can I install the OLD hard drive as a second drive to the new?  If I can then I can just copy all the files from the old drive to the new and use the old as a memory drive.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    The simple answer is Yes.

    (1) I would like to replace the hard drive with the same drive size or larger. But does not exceed 2 T.

    (2) I hope you made the original recovery DVD set the original recovery firstly, DVD media DVD + R try as these will save you having to create a driver disk.  If you really have to buy a complete set of recovery, get it here. It will have all the necessary drivers.  Only $27.00

    (3) I copy the files and destroy the old disk. Its usefulness is damaged since 2008.

    I want to spend my Sat A200 - 1 GB hard disk with a 7200 RPM one... but they are all SATA300 models.
    Is this speed mode supported by the bios, motherboard and sata controller of this laptop?

    I just want to be sure that the hard drive works at its maximum speed capability and the sata and the mobo will not be a bottleneck...

    If Yes, the sata controller driver whichsis?... I want this wake in my own vista installation disc.

    Hello!

    Yes, you can use a disk with SATA300 mode but it only works in normal mode SATA no more at maximum speed. The Satellite A200 supports only SATA 1.0 mode (SATA150).

    You can use a HARD drive with 7200 RPM, this isn't a problem.

    What HARD drive capacities are supported, that you can see in the user manual. Look in Chapter 1.

    The SATA driver is in the Intel Storage Manager package.

    Go to this site and create a bootable CD.

    http://hddguru.com/software/2005.10.02-MHDD/

    Boot from the CD.

    If she asks do you want SCSI, click No or just press ENTER. (countdown to 30 seconds)

    The port selection select your HARD drive. (Usually 1, 3 or 6).

    If you do not see your HARD drive, you will need to restart and go into the BIOS and SATA ATA value.

    After choosing your type of HARD drive, ERASE and press to enter. (This will erase all data).

    Leave it to erase the entire disc. (Depending on the size, it may take 2 to 5 hours.)

    Once done erase all disk F4 2 hit shots and will start the test.

    Many people simply replace the HARD drive and all that is wrong is there is simply soft errors. (Errors caused by software not hardware errors.)

    If you need help running the program let me know.
