  • How can I put an SSD inside a Dell Inspiron 660?

    First of all, I want to express how much I love your computers, Dell. You guys ROCK! Best brand of computer I've ever bought. On the subject; I have a desktop PC Dell Inspiron 660 with a 1 TB hard drive. I want to spend the hard drive for an SSD, but I looked inside your case and the hard drive has 2 rails metal (one on each side). That being said; How to fit an SSD in there? I know I need an adapter of sorts that it will allow to get into that, but how I'd cela in view of the way in which the hard disk is set up? I'm so confused! Thanks for your time.

    You install the drive in a silverstone adapter then put the rails on it.

  • It is better to put an SSD in my slow-beastly Macbook, or processor speed is the King?

    I have an early 2008 Macbook (I know), one of her now retired 17 "ones, I'm maxing out to 6 MB of RAM (I know).  It's like the core duo 2.5 GHz.  Then obviously, Lightroom + weddings = molasses.

    For a few hundred dollars, I could put in an SSD, invade the space of my traditional hard drive optical Bay DVD disc and run the operating system, applications and current LR catalog of the SSD.

    But, is it still worth it?  It is the speed of the processor that's killing me here, or would upgrade to an SSD help out me?  I'm going to get more bang out of my money to photograph if I put my current disposable income in the upgrade of my camera body (1 5 5D3s) and all in post-processing is slow and boring, at least I * can * that everything is done.  There are just a lot of time. I can't do the quality of the image that I need in the half-light outside my current cameras, this is the priority.  So I look at another year, probably, before I could go new Macbook.  Screen 17 "I miss, but such is life.

    So, what do you think?  Interesting put in a SSD, or hold on and put every penny towards a faster processor and more RAM a year from now?  I still have about 30 weddings to go this season so post-treatment pain is adding, but I don't want to just throw away money if this is not the real problem.

    You need more CPU. I think the idiom, could apply to get the SSD is like "putting lipstick on a pig."

    The OCZ Vertex2 is fine. Be aware that you will need to purchase a support of adapter 3.5 'as the 1.8 SSD'. I highly recommend the OCZ SSD. I own a Vertex 64 GB SSD and love it.  The OCZ forum gives great support. You will find a guide that should be fairly simple installation.

  • Permutation of HARD, SSD, disc using HP recovery for new laptop support

    Hi, I'm trying swap at the disk of 500 GB of a whole new HP ENVY TouchSmart Ultrabook 4 t-1100 to a 120 GB SSD.

    Day 1 to have the laptop, I went through the creative process of recovery on a USB media.

    The problem is, I can't use it.  The new SSD seems to be recognized very well.  The recovery process makes it far enough - at least far enough to restart several times with screens of Windows 8.

    But this ultimatly is not finished and working.  I talked with a tech support on this issue, and told him that I could not do this because the SSD, I was trying to 'restore' to was smaller than my drive of the moose.  His advice was for me to buy a retail business / version of generator in the system of the operating system to be able to "install it" myself.

    Is this good?  Is there a better way to do it other than to buy a second copy of an OS that I have rights to use on this computer?

    I love the material, but I feel quite frustrated with the software...

    I think it would be better if spend you the same amount of $$ and get the software OEM W8.

    You first need to confirm which version of W8, you have on your PC, and you can do it only with the original hard drive installed.  As I posted above, you will need to install the OEM version of the software that corresponds to the product key encoded.

    Software OEM 64 bit standard is $ 99.00

    Bit Pro OEM 84 software is $139.99

    I'm almost certain that you will run in rough seas, trying to upgrade to W8 Pro using any type of installation media.

    Look at your current operating system... is there an option to make that "Anytime upgrade" as you can with W7?

    I think it's the only way you can get W8 Pro on the machine.

    I sympathize with you, but that's all I can do.

    It seems that new PC is really "locked" until you can do about the operating system.

  • HP dv7-6b50eb: HP recovery launches the cloned SSD, impossible to install win7 on the SSD.

    Hello

    I recently bought an SSD to accelerate my HP DV7. So I tried to clone my previous 1 TB to my 250 GB SSD hdd, but it seems that it's quite simple. :-(.

    I have created the exact same partitions (with the same size, orders, except for my main Windows partition type of course being given my SSD is much smaller) on the SSD as on my old Hdd. After that I made an exact copy of each 3 partitions (HP Recovery partition, system and tools Hp) but instead of copying the windows partition, I left a void on the SSD as the size of the Windows on the old hard drive partition is larger (the data) than the available size on the remaining on the SSD partition. I thought that I could boot on the SSD drive and start the restore process to install Win7 on the empty partition. But when I restart the pc, it does not seem to recognize the boot SSD partition, he prefers not to say "No operating system found".

    I also tried to activate the 3 partition directly (which is the recovery partition) to directly on boot as the partition, but it did not work either. The partition to activate before it was the 1st partition (which is the SYSTEM partition), but he has not worked either.

    Can someone help me do that cloning to work?

    FYI, I did the cloning and the creation of the partition using fdisk and dd on ubuntu.

    Thank you.

    Hi Wawood and Mista B,.

    Thanks for your comments I have a previous message, but strangely I have not found trace of the previous message, maybe I forgot to press the 'POST' button:-s.

    In any case, I was thinking that I understand your remarks Wawood but my goal isn't specifically for the windows on my new SSD partition (not interested in reducing the windows partition, it is just a statement), it was ok for me to any re - install from the recovery partition, a windows 7 from scratch.

    And I'd say Mista B by saying that it would have been stupid HP do not allow someone to use the recovery on the same pc partition, just because it has a different hard drive.

    Finally, I managed to do what I wanted to for those who are interested (HP is not so stupid after all:-p), here's the method I used to clone my hard drive of 1 TB to my 250 GB SSD and keep all the native HP (recovery, hp_tools, System) partitions with a 1 TB hard drive works correctly.

    So what I have is:

    -J' put the SSD as a second drive on my laptop (I guess it should work in the same way if connected by USB)

    -J' I started my pc and downloaded the EaseUs partition master

    -J' ran the program and began by doing a thorough cleaning of the SSD

    -J' made a copy of the system partition of my hard drive of 1 TB to my SSD

    -J' made a copy of the partition my hard drive of 1 TB HP_TOOLS to my SSD

    -J' made a copy of the recovery of my 1 TB hard drive partition to my SSD

    -J' created a new empty NTFS partition in the remaining partition

    I'm done with the same exact score as agenda in my 1 TB HDD.

    1. THE SYSTEM

    2 NTFS empty

    3 recovery

    4.HP_TOOLS

    After that my SSD was not bootable, because the MBR has not yet been copied.

    Then I started a live CD of Ubuntu and I installed boot-repair and he ran.

    I chose the advanced options and set set the mbr and boot from the partition 3.

    I then put the partition recovery (partition 3) as being ACTIVE.

    I removed the hard drive of 1 TB of the laptop (to avoid any error during execution of recovery which ends with the recovered 1To:-p) beeing and replaced it with the SSD.

    I then rebooted the laptop and it starts directly on the recovery partition. I finished in the recovery strategy (I could not choose the recovery from an earlier point in time given that the windows partition is empty (no windows backup)).

    I chose over the full restore, the slight recovery with only OS and drivers and it does the job of recovery. Now that the of what I write this resolved thread :-).

    Hope this helps some people out there with the same questions.

  • How to put a new SSD in Satellite M50D-A-112?

    I had a M50D-A-112, and I want to put a SSD HD, instead of the HARD disk that is in the unit.
    I have a Toshiba Q series 256 GB SSD, but I'm not able to 'open' the laptop. I removed all the screws but cannot remove the rear shield. I'm afraid to use for excessive violence do. HA someone some experience I swap hard drives in this model.

    Any help will be greatly welcome.
    Concerning

    On most laptops Toshiba, it is possible to remove the battery, RAM or HARD drive cover and do drive HARD or RAM upgrade and it can be made by the owner of the laptop. It is also described in the document s user manuals.

    Due to the special construction, this can be done with your laptop. with other words, Toshiba does not support such a change by the owner of the laptop. My advice to you is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They have manuals how this notebook must be dismantled and they can swap the HDD with new SSD. Please note: If you try to do it on your guarantee will be cancelled.

    Before you anything please create recovery media (USB) that you can use to install an operating system on new SSD.

    Bye and good luck.
