  • I have to remove mSata SSD on Inspiron 15R - SE (7520) during the SSD upgrade?

    I noticed that my laptop has a job 32 GB SSD mSata as cache for 1 TB HARD drive. However I intend to abandon this 1 TB HARD drive in DVD - Rom tray and slap in a SSD 128 GB... now the problem returns to the mSata SSD.

    the mSata ssd presents itself as 'LITEONIT LMT-32', its also show as SATA_array_0001 under the technology Intel Rapid Storage, with 8 GB data and 22 gb Cache volume.

    base on this site, to remove this mSata SSD seems to be a pain in the ass who require a full strip down.

    now I'm just amazing, what happens IF I let this mSata SSD in there, he will try to act as a cache for my SSD which is already much faster than it or the system is going to be smart enough to put my HARD drive cache. I will win ANY performance gain / lost in leaving the mSata SSD in? If not, is it possible to disable it?

    Hello again,

    If the installation is very easy. I made sure that the 32 GB msata, was disabled before I installed the new 240 GB SSD.

    After you disable acceleration - MAKE sure THAT YOU RESET to DISP - really important... Make sure the msata drive is empty, no partition.

    I removed the 1 TB drive, after I deleted the partition do not reformat... that I placed in a basket and I replaced the BD player...

    Let Intel rapid storage enabled in the Bios

    I installed the SSD and put the Dell OEM Windows 7 USB in and then I went... Because the other 2 drives had no any partition, left of Windows system reserves on the SSD> Windows will throw the reserve system on any other installed drive which has partitions, installing (reason msata and 1 TB of disk are not formatted)

    Once Windows 7 has been made and installed, I have download driver Intel Rapid Storage from Dell... and went in the administrative options... I formatted the 1 TB drive and initialized only msata 'no format.

    Returned to Intel Rapid Storage, and it was there, activate the acceleration. So I used only 22 GB for acceleration, on the storage of 1 TB drive 'former reader'... leaving me flying over 8 GB... Re-entered administrative options... and I formatted (NTFS) 8gbs... I used the 8 GB for my swap file, freeing up the 8 gb of OS "ssd s. - great idea, using a separate drive for the paging file.

    I'm sure that you can also use the 8 GB for your quick start too, but I do not use the quick start...

    Now, I have a 240 gb C500 and a Cached 1 TB 5400 RPM disk storage... I never really use the BD player... But I kept it just wrap... Reading and writing is great on this thing and if I decided to load my 425 GB of steam games, now I can load them on my storage drive, and it will always be super fast!

    Thanks for reading and I hope you find this useful!

  • Msata ssd in X 230 installation will void the warranty?

    Hello

    the guy at my local store campus told me that installing an msata ssd in a X 230 me would, of course, void my warranty. Is this really true? Many people seem to install themselves, and the ssd is indeed a YEAR for X 220. On the other hand, in accordance with the X 230 Hardware Maintenance Manual, this no longer seems to be the case...

    Stephan

    Hey there, strava,.

    If the HMM said that the part is a FRU, and then replace the part on your own, will indeed, null your guarantee.

  • Can we now install mSATA SSD in our X230s we without voiding the warranty?

    If this has been discussed before on this forum that the installation of a device on a 230 X mSATA was a cancellation action guarantee (the part was ranked CSU instead of the former USSR).  And we in the USA had no possibility to have one installed at all.

    Now on the Lenovo site when I'm trying to configure an x 230, he said you can order an mSATA compatible one under different screen options.

    I ordered a week or two there, but that does not mean we can now install without cancel warrnaties?

    Anyone Lenovo have a notice on it?

  • EliteBook 8760w: can I put my EliteBook 8760w with an mSATA SSD hard drive using the slot mSATA

    I wonder if it should be possible to use an mSATA SSD by installing it in the slot mSATA?

    Product number: LG673EA #AK8 (EliteBook 8760w)

    I inserted an mSATA SSD and it fits, but after booting, the computer gives the following message:

    No wireless module supported

    The system has detected the wireless installed in the system module is not supported and disabled.

    WWAN Module ID (703)

    I hope it's just a matter of configuration/drivers, etc...

    No, it's a physical barrier. Is the accommodation that you turn the player mSATA in p.50 indicated on the manual here? :

    Repair manuals

    This port is a card WWAN (cellular modem) only. Your laptop is the Intel Core 2d era generation and utilization of disks mSATA even for cache acceleration did not really catch up to the 3rd generation. The circuits to see and make use of the mSATA drive is simply not present in this laptop. I'm sorry.

  • Satellite A210-248 does not recognize the 840 ECO mSATA SSD

    I want to build in my Satellite A210-248 on the port of msata ssd.

    When I build in the ssd bios dind't find the ssd, so I can't install windows in the ssd

    Hello

    Satellite A210 does not support port mSATA and therefore the mSATA SSD module cannot be used.
    Probably, you have found a mini-PCI on the motherboard slot. It certainly looks like mSATA but its not the same thing.

  • Any suggestion about the msata SSD?

  • mSATA SSD in WWAN location in e7240

    Hello

    I am interested in getting an mSATA SSD in the WWAN slot in e7240. Apart from the LITEON SSD (which doesn't seem to be available in my position), what other SSD can be used? If you use a SSD in this slot, I would like to know the make and model and additional effort/questions that you face?

    Thank you.

    Replying to my own post in case anyone else has the same question. The mSATA Samsung Evo fits well. Unfortunately it does not come with a screw and the seller did not have a spare or (!). So I went with the Plextor M6M (which is the same as the LITEON SSD Dell has default SSD). Works very well.

  • X131e - msata ssd ThinkPad

    Hello

    I ordered a x131e thinkpad and I'm currently waiting for delivery.

    At the same time, I would like to order an msata ssd card to install in one of the two mini pci-e ports (for the installation of the OS).

    I saw in the hardware maintenance manual p63-64 (http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/x131e_en_hmm_0b48698_01.pdf ) that the msata ssd card can be installed in the WWAN card slot full size.

    Issues related to the:

    -the slot for WWAN card full size is free by default... I guess that Yes, because the wireless card that comes with X131e is a half size Intel Centrino wireless - N 2230, which should be in the other mini pci-e slot (known as the wireless LAN slot)?

    -What is the size of the msata ssd card that could be installed in the free location? There are several length of the msata ssd card (25, 50 and 70 mm)... I guess it is 50mm?

    -There are different types of cards msata ssd: sata2 or sata3... make thinkpad x131e sata3 msata ssd card support?

    Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English level

    Visegrad,

    Given that the integrated SATA controller is SATA2, it will probably support mSATA2. I hope that this solves all your questions. If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask!

    And once again, thank you Visegrad to be part of the community of Lenovo.

    The 16 GB (Sandisk) of Lenovo mSATA ssd includes a serial number that is required during the installation ExpressCache of Lenovo (Sandisk/Condusiv).  I'm sure there are other combinations of HW/SW that can be implemented, but I don't know if they are as effective as the combination of Lenovo.
