• Can X 1 carbon (2015) use the EVO to 840 Samsung MZ-MTE1T0BW mSATA SSD internal flash drive 1 TB?

  I have a Toshiba Portege in which I installed a Samsung 840 EVO MZ-MTE1T0BW 1 TB mSATA SSD and it worked fine for months. It replaced a similar unbranded 128 GB SSD. On command, I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X 1 of carbon with a 128 GB SSD. Is there a reason I can't recreate the image on the 1 TB of the Toshiba drive and install it in the Lenovo?

  Good day and welcome to the community.

  Congratulations for choosing a carbone3.

  The SSD into the computer is a m.2 2280 format the card. The SSD of MZ-MTE1T0BW, you have is mSATA format, so it will not slot, or if it will fit width/length-wise.

• Emotional victory for U310 Touch msata ssd 8.1

  Hi all;

  Just improved the 24GO to a 120 GB msata msata and I have a problem on the cloning of the HDD to the ssd with Clonezilla. The plan is to move the BONES to the msata ssd and wipe the hard dirve original and use it for backup and storage. The BIOS is current set on AHCI Lagency OS active support but try UEFI first. I've done this before with win 7 systems; but it's my first foray in the 8.1 w/UEFI victory. The system does recognize and access the drive 120 GB msata M500 Crucial; It will not just mirror the win - 8 8 partitions. I reinstalled the HD and restarted the system; to ensure that I mean something to the top and everything seems to work; but on the slow hard disk.

  Help with this will be greatly appreciated.

  PS. I boot from the USB stick with Clonzillia on it and used the cloning of disk to disk option

  I think the problem is trying to clon a big HD on a smaller ssd...

  Take a look at this: http://jsm-techblog.blogspot.com/2013/02/using-clonezilla-to-clone-from-larger.html

• M500 Crucial would work as primary disk in my W520 or am I forced to use Lenovo SSD?

  Just wondering if the

  Crucial M500 240GB SATA 2.5 inch 7mm internal Solid State Drive CT240M500SSD1

  my Thinkpad W520 work? I want to spend the current HD 500 GB Ultra Bay and use the SSD as drive.

  I searched and read many horror stories how anything but Lenovo SSD will not work or there are problems.

  I also searched and read where the M500 Cruical works indeed.

  Seems to be more complaints than not.

  So what, what to do? All advice is appreciated.

  I want to order a SSD by Sunday evening.

  Good afternoon and welcome to the community.

  You shouldn't have any problems setting up computer you the way you describe. My X 220 (generation of your W) is configured with an mSATA SSD Crucial m4 under the keyboard and a Samsung SSD of 840Pro in the main Bay. I had zero problems. A moderator colleague runs a T420 has also equipped the mSATA SSD Crucial m4, but kept the flat disc in the main Bay, I think.

  See you soon.

• ProBook 6470b: mSATA SSD in a Probook 6470 b

  Hey

  I just want to tell you is possble to install an mSATA SSD in a HP Probook 6470b. While I don't see a present pci slot which can be adapted for an mSATA ssd, I don't want to face any questions that he might not be guilty or bios regonise the reader, etc.. My idea is to have the mSATA SDS which will serve as my boot device and have a 1 TB or 2 TB 2.5' HDD for data. Right now I use a samsung 840 EVO SSD 2.5' as my boot drive.

  Kind regards

  Nick

  Here's what it says in the Manual:

  Flash module 24 GB of cache mSATA Intel (Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT), not available on computer models equipped with WWAN or SSD)

  So yes, you can insert a disc of the WSSD in the pci-e slot you see. However, it is designed only to be used as cache acceleration and not as a main boot drive. This means that it will be bootable, but only as long as a regular SATA HDD or SSD is not present. It is the oldest mSATA material used with the Intel Core processors 3rd generation on business models and processors of gen 4th on consumption patterns. Later models can use the slot of the WSSD to boot, but not yours without significant configuration involving a bootloader installed on the SATA drive.

• HP Envy 15 J 048 tx: mSATA SSD for HP Envy 15 J 048 tx

  Hello!

  I have a HP Envy 15 J048-tx. I want to add an mSATA SSD on my PC and be able to boot from it all by using the HARD drive as internal storage device only. The goal is to make the system run faster (overall and games).

  I don't want to change the HARD drive as more large SSD storage capacity are quite expensive and adding an mSATA as disk startup seems to be a cheaper alternative. Current storage capacity of the PC is 1 TB and a 1 TB SSD will fix me by about 34 000 INR (which is a lot), while adding a 250 GB mSATA is about 7-8 000 INR and 500 GB is 12-13 000 INR. Already, I have a lot of external hard drives and do not want to reduce the storage capacity of integrated system, because that would be to buy more external hard drives.

  The PC came with Windows 8. Other details are

  1. Motherboard: Intel HM87 (revision of Southbridge - C2), 1963 HP (U3E1)
  2. BIOS: F.65
  3. Intel Core i7 4700MQ
  4. Storage: SATA-II 3.0 Gb/s
  5. RAM: 16 GB DDR3

  The product manual indicates this (pg 5 or pdf pg 13): Support for SSD drive 24-GB mSATA (not available on computer models with memory system 16834 - or 12288 MB)

  Contact HP support on twitter and got this response from there : supports 24GO mSATA (not available on models with 16834-MB system memory or 12288 MB) this should work, but the HP recovery media may not work to install, it may fail, the portion of due to the small size of disk partitioning.

  There seems to be an empty slot for the mSATA, but I can't remove the lid more as I don't have the tools for the same. (pictures attached)

  This post on the HP Support says that - the mSATA cannot be used for the operating system and that it is for the acceleration of a regular mechanical hard drive.

  Then there was this post for HP envy 15-j003tx touchsmart which mentions that it is possible to do it with a link on Laptopmag article for the same thing that got me a little confused.

  I also checked with my digital discount and the PC is not listed in the list of compatible devices. However, after going through the comments, I found there were people with any queries similar to me (but for different computers HP) and found this disc , which seems to be compatible. I thought I'd go with 128 GB one but don't know not then sought more. Then I scanned the PC using crucial.com and found these discs to be compatible too (250 GB & 500 GB).

  My questions:

  1. My PC is compatible with most mSATA SSD storage size?
  2. If so, that we go? 500 GB we have any extra advantage or a 256 GB disc will solve the purpose?
  3. The steps mentioned in the article of laptopmag need any changes?

  Images of the system after the opening of the back cover (1 & 2):

  

  

  You can add something big, but for 24 concerts for acceleration purposes are sufficient. If you can't find a 24 concert, you can use a 32. Any more than that would be wasted for pure acceleration. The accelerator contains the contents of the memory for a quick recovery from his sleep and also holds start-up files and then the .exe files for the programs that you frequently open like saying the browser or email.

  You can use a larger disk, repeat a 64 or 128 and let the Intel Rapid Storage create say a 30 GB partition for acceleration. The partition of the accelerator is not ntfs, or anything else Windows can be used as a storage device. You can then use the rest of the disc as a storage called disk formatted FAT32 or ntfs. If you do something like Photoshop or video editing it would give you a place to put work files that could be accessed and processed very quickly. But you can not use this partition as a startup or a Windows partition and it would take much diligence to prevent fill.

  If you decide to take the post of reader of acceleration from the establishment requires a configuration that is not totally intuitive.

• ProBook 6450 b (ATI): the upgrade of my Probook with mSATA SSD

  Hello! ProBook 6450 b. I want to upgrade my computer with mSATA SSD drive. I've got slot free mini-PCIE (what is expected for the WWAN card). The problem is that I don't know if this Probook (updated of course!) BIOS supports modyfications like this. Can anyone help?

  Kind regards!

  I happen to be sitting here with his cousin the 6530 b working on it for a friend and I can tell you that it is earlier than mSATA WSSD readers. The crack is only for a WWAN card. If you put a disc mSATA in it the computer does not respond.

• Hard drive not detected after adding 2nd mSATA SSD for HP Envy 14 1002tx

  Hello

  I'm having a problem when adding an extra mSATA SSD for my HP Envy 1002tx model.

  The laptop comes with a 500 GB HARD drive and I see that there is a 2.5 "mSATA SSD slot under the HARD drive, so I bought the same type of SSD and installed it but when I turn on the laptop, it does not introduce yourself. I don't know why?

  I want to have an SSD for boot up the laptop and HARD drive to store animals.

  If anyone knows if there is any software I have to install in order for the laptop to recognize the SSD?

  OR

  Is - this material is defective?

  Thank you in advance!

  I'm really sorry, I could not find this before, but the slot under the hard drive is not compatible with the mSATA disks. It's for WWAN modules! Your laptop is not like 4 I thought, but Envy 14 equipped with the first generation of Intel processors. Envy 14-Sandy Bridge 2000 series could be BIOS modded to make the miniPCI-e interface works with the mSATA disks but Envy 14-1000 series is not possible to change.

  Edit: 2.5 "drive 256GB solid state drive is listed as compatible.

• Info for: mSATA SSD 80 GB and 750 GB hard drive (7200 RPM)

  I buy the 14-2160SE Envy Beats Edition and it has a double drive; SSD HARD DRIVE &. I can't find any definitive info on the HP site or on the web. I am familiar with both types of readers, but not both on the same computer. How does it work? What is the purpose? If it switches automatically or pass them? And, especially, it works for the intended use? Although this is my first post, I'm a believer in public forums, so I don't know that I'll be back as soon as I got my desire. Thanks in advance for your help. Sam

  The 80 GB SSD can contain the operating system and the 750 GB hard drive will be for storage. SSDS are very (very) fast but expensive, so you can get the speed without the monstrous price advantage by combining a little cheaper SSD with a hard drive for storage. I have a 500 GB SSD and it costs more than $600, but I thought I got a good deal. My laptop takes only a single drive. You have the advantage of being able to use the same laptop 2.

  Readers will appear as readers symbolized under "Computer" (Windows Explorer). The SSD will be "C:\ >. Just be sure to move the "My Documents" folder to drive hard (if this has not already been done). Also when you install a new program and it asks the path where you want to install it, put it on the hard drive. In this way, you keep the SSD of McNeil. 80 GB will be plenty as long as you don't try to store large media files.

• 14-b017cl Sleekbook: the 120 GB msata ssd make bootable

  Hi guys, I need your expertise!

  I installed a m500 crucial SSD 120 GB in my slot msata for use as drive system (NOT in the disk cache!).

  Before, I turned off acceleration of hard drive Intel Rapid Storage menu. I can see the SSD in the Explorer as a disk separate and clone my disk with Paragon partition migrate OS 4.0 SSD. However, in the BIOS (F.12) and in the startup options, the drive is not displayed. If I boot without the HARD drive no boot disk is found.

  Is this a BIOS problem / a BIOS update can resolve it? If so, since there is only an update of Win8, an update with Win7 would be possible somehow?

  I know that sleekbook material supports bootable SSD: I upgraded successfully a Sleekbook 14-b083eg to a 120 GB system msataSSD disk. (see CAT ID:48997789; Service Ticket number: 8066059670)
  Thanks a lot for your help!

  SEB

  It is specific to all HP laptops with the WSSD mSATA other than a couple of small business model for portable computers that use only hard drives WSSD. If you got the b083eg to boot from the WSSD with a disc present regular SATA just do whatever you did there once again and please post here because many people want to know how to do this.

• Ultrabook Envy6-1100sl: install a 2nd OS on the msata SSD - Envy6-1100sl

  Hi, I upgraded my envy6 with 16 GB Crucial RAM and 500 GB samsung SSD evo. After upgrade, I did a clean install of windows 10 and stopped to use the itegrated msata ssd. My question is:
  Can I install a second operating system on the msata ssd? Can this bios read the second OS on the msata? Is there a procedure to follow?
  Thank you

  Thanks for suggesting it, but I've created a simple way... I just installed the second OS on the msata. At startup the sistem starts automatically on my main drive (500 GB win10), but if I press F9 when starting, I can see my linux on second drive (32 GB msata) and just choose to start when I need.
  Don't need to grub or similar just manual choice, and that's what I wanted!

• Replace drive HARD Y500 with SSD - 16 GB mSATA SSD disk cache is removed?

• mSATA SSD to Y480

  I have a Y480 and I would like to add an mSATA SSD.

  According to the 128 GB of Crucial m4 mSATA reader is not compatible with the Y480:

  http://www.crucial.com/store/partspecs.aspx?IModule=CT128M4SSD3

  I also watched the 80 GB drive mSATA Intel:

  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/796905-reg/Intel_SSDMAEMC080G2C1_2_5_mSATA_MLC_310.html

  who is 4.85 mm thick against 3.6 to 3.8 mm for some other devices. I'm afraid that Intel may not match.

  Question 1:

  What mSATA discs are known to work with the Y480?

  Question 2:

  I want to do the new SSD my system disk. So no worries with special BIOS need not required to use the SSD as drive caching.

  Lean towards performing a clean Windows Installer using a generic Windows 7 ISO of Digital River (against the existing HARD drive cloning). Assuming that this will require some messing around with drivers and let me without the Lenovo tools, like the Onekey Recovery, I have not much to care for and would be happy to jettison.

  Everyone thinks it's a bad idea or have any useful advice?

  In the end, I installed a Crucial M4 mSATA reader:

  It works very well!
