• Can I use the recovery discs HP on a new SSD for HP Envy Windows 8?

  Hello

  I've owned my TouchSmart from HP ENVY 15 - j105sa Notebook PC, Ref. F5D08EA for a few months now and I would like to upgrade to an SSD Samsung Evo 840 (500 GB) HARD drive.
  
  I use the recovery disks that I created when I got the laptop to install the OS on the new SSD? I know that I could do it with previous versions of Windows, but with secureboot etc I do not know if this can be done with Windows 8, I know, it can be disabled in the BIOS, but I have the latest bios update for my laptop that I check regularly.

  Thanks for any help.

  The method the most painless way to do is to buy the new SSD as a migration kit.

  Migration kits are delivered with a USB to SATA data\power connector and cloning software.

  Recovery and recovery usb media discs games requires that the target disk is the same size or larger than the original. In using the method of migration (cloning) will show that a problem.

  It makes you, thank you.

  If the Dell backup and restore media recovery is used it will be identical to the factory with all the drivers preinstalled system installation.

  There may be updates to the driver, but everything should work on the box.

  Hey Riddick,

  The single SSD Lenovo says you can have with your X 301 is Thinkpad 256Go FDE SSD part # 43N3417 that I found in a compatibility guide.

  The psref for your X 301 below:

  64 GB, 80 GBor 128 GB Solid State Drive (SSD)

  If both of your choice will fit in your home, but from the reviews, you could go ether way but I suggest one.

• Adding an SSD for Acer Aspire VN7 - 591G - 70RT (need help)

  Hello

  I have an addition an Acer Aspire VN7-591 G-70RT with a slow 5400 RPM 1 TB WD Blue that creates a bottleneck in my laptop.

  I checked on Crucial to see if there are compatible SSD for my laptop which recommended:

  MX200 crucial m2 Type 2280 (Single Sided) 250 GB internal SSD

  I was wondering, do anyone know if this information is correct? I was having mixed information online, 250 GB wouldn't cut my storage needs, if I could only get a 2.5 SSD "so my intention is to have an SSD 250 installed and my 1 TB HARD drive.

  Also, if the SSD was not the main drive would I still see the benefits of installing games who him? As in would be the existing WD blue always be causing a bottleneck?

  Any help with this would be appreciated!

  I have the device works now, I installed the MX200 Crucial m2 250G without any problem. Here's how.

  WEAR AN ANTI STATIC BAND:

  Step 1) remove all the screws on the underside of the laptop

  Step 2) use spudger or credit GENTLY lift a gap between the keyboard and the base, then use the credit card to slide slowly into the space to jump open clips, NOT FORCE.

  Step 3) (OPTIONAL) remove the keyboard connectors by moving clip and gently remove the cable from the Jack. However the HARD drive slipped in for me without necessary to detach.

  Step 4) unplug original WD HDD blue reversing the clip and disconnect the cable

  Step 5) close laptop together and boot with Windows 10 USB install

  Step 6) install windows on new SSD (for me windows automatically activated via the BIOS/UEFI) if it doesn't happen for you, simply re-attatch the original HARD disk.

  Step 7) if the activation is successful, again set HARD drive and original format. I have kept all the original ACER RECOVERY and Partitions (Healthy) in case I need to restore factory default, but formatted primary partition.

• Purchase refurbished vs new - SSD (cost, it's sure-virus, other problems possible)

  Would anyone mind on SSD purchase refurbished. For the new 2540p 80 GB SSD is $323 refurbished $ 120. The 160 GB SSD is $ 546, $200 refurbished

  Buy a new one, but buy from someone other than HP. You can get a 250 'quick Headrush' rockin' concert new SSD for about $150:

  Hi again,

  Disabling the drive HARD and then recover with the recovery HP for the SSD disks worked fine.

  Now upgraded to W8.1 and then I activate the HARD disk to make the data reader.

  Thank you for your good recommendations!

• How to install Windows 7 on a new SSD, Dell Windows 7 DVD

  I have a new SSD for my workstation Precision 7510.  I need to install windows 7 on it from the DVD provided by Dell.  The DVD has no drivers and so when I try and install, I get a message about "the installation media does contain not all drivers" and the installation will not allow me to continue.  Keep in mind that my new SSD has no partition recovery or in fact any partition.  I have a drivers Cab file and I also have this unpacked on a USB key, but it does not appear as a disk when I "Browse".  Neither the new SSD - t - there no partitions...

  Do I need to format the SSD drive first?

  Could someone tell me where I can get the drivers and all that forms, they must be in?  In other words, I need to burn it to a DVD, and what would the structure of directory?  Do I have to download all the drivers separately - there are a number of EXEs on the support site, or can I use the Dell Enterprise site CAB file?

  I tried various things now since a few days and I'm losing my grip on reality :)

  Thanks in advance.

  See here:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/a-clean-install-of-Windows/downloading-preparing-and-loading-SATA-drivers/

  Use this driver:

  http://downloads.Dell.com/FOLDER03294962M/1/Serial-ATA_Driver_KV87W_WN64_14.6.1.1030_A01.exe

  I would also advise to convert the DVD to USB with USB 3.0 support:

• What for new ssd sata port?

  I was wondering which of the 4 ports on the motherboard sata should I choose for my new ssd, there are 4 ports sata with different colors.

  System:

  HP Pavilion Elite H8-1140sc

  If you plan to use the SSD drive for a boot drive, then after cloning the C: drive current, use the port that your current boot drive is in. If you are Ingo to use it for storage, then place it in any empty port.

• retrieve the time backup machine for new ssd internal

  I had to replace my internal HD on a 2012 end iMac, so I went to SSD.

  I had saved my first system and files in Time Machine before that.

  What is the process of a) formatted internal SSD new and b) recovering the original of external backup Time Machine?

  As I have to reseal the iMac just to make it work, I don't want to have to open it again to play with the new SSD!

  Hope that you already have a boot USB OS X in hand disc (I always have a copy must have on hand).

  Plug the USB into the USB port and Time Machine,

  by key pressing 'option' as soon as 'chime' begins.

  You can choose the selection of the boot drive.

  OR

  If your SSD does not start on her file (e.g. blank) - it should start automatically via the USB.

  (a) - Yes, using "disk utility" - in the menu bar superior, to partition the drive (GUID) first

  (b) then choose 'continue' to install the OS X - at the end, you will be asked few options - recover via Time Machine.

  After the restoration, you can run a few updates so that the system will work like the old set up.

  Most of the software should work, but somehow, some software required "activation key" again.

  Those notorious - Rosetta Stone (language). -J' had to communicate with them, uninstall the old drive first.  Microsoft Office can be too fickle.

  Make sure that OS X are the same version (you can't have 10.11 on Time Machine, try using the boot USB 10.10 disk) targeted installed OS X must be the same or more recent than the OS X version of the time Machine.  For example, if your Time machine backup contains 10.10, then you can either use drive start USB 10.10 and 10.11 for the restore process.

• New firmware for the required SSD THNSNC256GBSJ

  Can I get a new firmware for my model THNSNC256GBSJ s/n 51GB50HNK6LK SSD
  8.1 x 64 installed on my Windows System.

  To my knowledge, an update of firmware for THNSNC256GBSJ isn't available.
  But why are you talking about firmware update?

  SSD drive is recognized in the BIOS?
  If so, you don't need any SSD firmware updates to install Win'a 8.1

  Now I want to upgrade to Windows 7 and contestually get a new SSD Samsung 840 rather original EVO... What is the correct procedure?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  There is no procedure to upgrade from XP to Win 7, it would be clean installation.

  1. place the SSD drive in the machine instead of the HARD disk

  2. start the installation of Win 7 disc to install Win 7 (best x 64 edition)

  3 install the drivers of the machine, you can download from >here<

  Windows 7 is optimized to work with SSD, there will be no problem.

  If you have important data on your old HDD, you can either save it before (on external support, USB key, Cloud solution, etc.)  or after it (via a USB cable plugged into the laptop as external drive). This is also an option to transfer data.

  Please, let me know if you have any other questions. Happy holidays!

• What is the fastest connection that I can use for a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008?

  That IS the question. I want a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008.

  What is the fastest connection type that works?

  'External' and 'SSD' could be a problem.  SSDS are different animals of disks spinny.  Some will say that you need not trim on SSD (TRIM is a management tool to move only the ' opportunity' bytes in a block when the block of data is moved), but definitely TRIM does not work on USB or Firewire.  Not sure if the TRIM works on Thunderbolt connected readers as it does on disks SATA-path, however.

  Speed included between slower and faster, however: USB 2.0, Firewire 400, Firewire 800, USB 3.0, love at first sight.
