  Hello

  I guess you want to install the operating system (which one?) on the internal mSATA SSD 32GB?
  This mSATA SSD is used for caching (hybrid boot) to start Windows faster 8.

  I recommend you to install the second operating system on the HARD drive.
  To do this you must create the new partition that could be used for the installation of the OS.

  Then boot from the Windows installation disc and install the OS 2nd on the new partition.

• Best configuration for new LR install on the machine with SSD & HDD

  Hello

  I have been in photography for years, but never got myself sorted to manage all the pictures I managed to take. So from Lightroom.

  I am a new machine with a fast 256 GB SSD, a 2 TB HARD drive, and a clean installation of LR. I also have a NAS I use for backups, but I won't probably LR actively talk to him because it is only accessible via the wireless network. My collection of photos is already in the order of 500 GB, in order to put all my photos on the SSD won't work.

  With this in mind, what is the best way to configure LR with this Setup to get the best performance out of it? The main purpose of the box will be for photography, so I don't mind too much if it uses most of the SSD.

  Tips are welcome. Thank you!

• Can I improve performance by changing my HDD to new SSD HDD standard? Will be WHAT SATA-3 works on my device?

  Model HP TouchSmart tm2

  Hello

  Yes, this will improve the speed of normal applications on your mchine. Also, this speeds up things to the top processes ON and OFF. For the second question, yes SATA III is backward compatible so it will work, BUT you will not be able to get the SATA III speed. You can check yourself by using the following program:

  FTP://FTP.CPUID.com/PC-Wizard/PC-wizard_2012.2.11.zip

  Run it, you will see something like this:

  

  6 Gb/s SATA III and 3 Gb/s SATA II.

• How to move user folder of SSD to HDD Windows7 Pro 64 bit on a unused computer newly built

  I just finished building a new computer based on a Gigabyte GA - Z77N WiFi mini motherboard with a processor i5-3570, 16 GB of memory and a 128 GB SSD OCZ and 3 x WD 2 TB HDD green. I want to keep the operating system, programs on the SSD but unload the user accounts, my music, Documents, videos, data, etc., other readers. Also, I could be persuaded to consider buying Windows8, if that's easier to install, as I didn't buy Windows 7 software again

  Cordially Robert1920

  The safest option is to use the option to set the location of each of the libraries. Although the profile would remain in the C:\Users folder the mylibraryname can be moved.

  Open the users folder (double-click the user name in the upper right of the Start Menu) right-click on each folder and select Properties. With these directories that support this feature, one of the tabs should be the place, he has the opportunity to move the folder. She will also take care of the move for the files in the folder as well as internal links sort in the folder. I have an SSD in my laptop and have used this option to move my library of music 120 GB on the HARD disk. Not all folders in the user profile has this option but the keys don't.

  This is not a complete solution because the hidden AppData folder cannot be done in the same way, and this can become very large. If you use Outlook, you can move the .pst file manually, and if you want to really technical HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList contains the path to the Users directory.

• iMac SSD & HDD

  Hello

  I'm looking to install a SSD Samsung Eco 2 TB and a normal digital black among Westerners of 6 TB HDD, can I ask people their advice? I try to have ssd as my boot drive and the 6 TB for backup and the files.

  (a) problems with the selected material

  (b) it is useful, wise money for example I should save a little more and buy a new iMac

  (c) are there alternatives

  looking to make a TI takes forever to go start cold.

  I have a mid 2011 iMac i7 (12,2) with the last what OS X installed.

  Cheers in advance,

  RK based in the United Kingdom

  The major issue that you will have is that the 2011 iMac is not a disk controller capable of working with a 3 to or more large internal drive. Furthermore, what is the point of this large an SSD? If the Samsung Eco models are cheaper SSD, while they are cheaper because they are made with older chips may not correspond to current levels of performance. Do you really need a 2 TB SSD for a boot disk? A smaller and better quality SSD may be a better choice.

• Best SSD & HDD configuration environment iMac 2010

  I put my 2010 middle level 21.5 "iMac with a 1 TB Samsung Evo 850 SSD. I'll use the OWC data backup kit to replace the optical drive in the iMac with the SSD. To feel pretty comfortable with the facility itself after having looked through the iFixit guide and various You Tube videos. My issue is with how best to configure the installed SSD.

  I use mostly the iMac for Lightroom CC and I'm under El Capitan.

  My 1 TB HARD drive and is full of about 80%. I want to use the SSD as boot obviously drive and also use it for all my applications. I just want all my old music files and RAW files on the HARD drive that I don't need to access often. There are about 300 MB of old RAW files, I can move on the HARD drive, then once as it is setup, I hope that I'll have to say 500 MB on the SSD and 300 MB on the HARD disk. As my RAW files grow I still move the old files on the HARD drive to keep the SSD to become too full.

  I had planned to restore all my files for the SSD from a Time Machine backup and then format the HARD drive before joining former RAW HARD drive files. But:

  -which is the best way?

  There's an easy way to achieve the same goal without keeping all my cruft?

  -going to have my HARD drive plugged complicated issues when restoring to the SSD?

  -should I use carbon copy cone instead?

  Any advice or suggestions appreciated.

  How to use an SSD with your HARD drive If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do. After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume. Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder. Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content. Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it.

  Note that if you open the computer Apple won't provide any additional support if you need it. Make sure that you don't damage anything. Learn how to do what you plan to do before you start. It's a bad idea to try to learn along the way. There are small tablecloths at the back of the monitor that must be removed in order to access the disk space. There is also a special thermal cable required. I suggest you visit OWC where provide it a kit to add another disk to an iMac.

  You cannot copy OS X of your HDD to the SSD while leaving everything else behind. After installing the SSD you partition delete it, then install Snow Leopard top of your OS X disk installer supplied with the computer. After that, you can go to El Capitan if you wish.

  Clean Install of Snow Leopard

  1. start the computer using the Snow Leopard installation disc or disc 1 that came

  with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.

  After the ring, press and hold the "C" key.  Release the button when you see

  a small gear appear under the dark gray Apple logo.

  2. once the load setup program select your language and click continue

  button. When the menu bar appears select utility drive in the Utilities menu.

  After loading disk utility, select entry Out-dented the SSD in the list on the left.

  Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility.  Set the number of

  partitions to one (1) from the Partitions of the dropdown menu, click on the Options button

  GUID, click OK, and then select define the Mac OS Extended format type

  (Journaled), then click on the apply button.

  3. once formatting is complete utility of disk and return to the installer.

  Proceed with the installation of OS X and follow the instructions included with the installation program.

  4. Once installation is complete your computer will restart in the Setup

  Assistant. After finishing Setup Wizard will complete the installation, after which

  you will use a new installation of Mac OS X.  You can now begin the process of updating

  at the opening of updated software and installing all recommend updates to bring your

  current installation.

  Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 v1.1 updated Combo.

• SSD + HDD at the same time on my Aspire E5 - 572G

  The title almost says it all, I want to buy a new SSD (preferebly samsung 850 evo pro 250 GB) and use it in this laptop, but I want that my hard drive in the laptop for storage reasons. There are 2 docks hdd or w/e they are called in this laptop? Alternatively, I can remove the optical driver (DVD-ROM) and put the ssd in its place? Perhaps a solution other than the two that I mentioned above? FYI, I want a SSD internal flash disk as the one I mentioned above, so don't suggest those external, since it is a laptop and must always be portable.

  Well you have an empty Bay on the side of your laptop? Where it looks like a cd rom drive, but is not? Its an empty space you can install a second data in and it will happen as well as your bed on the HARD drive when I get home, I'll post a picture of my friends to show you what I meant

• Basic necessary for SSD + HDD Setup assistance

  Hello

  I know that this topic probably has to be put to death, but more I'm looking more confused I get.  I'm a total noob to the time modern PC s Please treat me like a fool in this regard :)

  I get a new rig built for me, especially for games. It includes Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit, an SSD 120 GB drive (which will be installed with OS startup disk) and a 1 TB WD Black HDD.  I intend to put some games on the SSD and everything else on the disk drive HARD (music, movies, documents, other games, etc etc).  Of course I have not yet, but basically I'm trying to anticipate the inevitable backups and partitioning issue when I get back to the computer.

  I understand that following the instructions on the installation of Win 7 with regard to the choice of the backup drives and create partitions etc should be simple enough.  What I am unclear of is as follows:

  To create a partition on my SSD and HARD drive?  If so the size should be partitions for each?

  * When creating partitions for backup, should there be that a single backup partition and this partition should be large enough to hold the combined SSD and HDD data or are they mainly just for backup OS and important documents?  I saw a tutorial here on how to include more than one disk in the backup process, so I think I can handle this quite well if necessary.  Of course, I'm hoping to have the backup partition on the HARD drive has a lot more space for him.

  * Is there an advantage in the creation of partitions/disks for specific things (one for the games, one for multimedia, documents, etc.) or is it OK to lump most of it in a player?

  One of my main concerns is the right balance with regard to the partition backup size/quantity: I don't want to put too much memory for what could possibly leave me short, nor do I want to find my backup partition/s are not large enough to hold whatever it takes.

  I will leave that for the moment, thanks in advance for your patience.  As I said, I checked these forums for the info I get but I just more confused and end with more questions than answers accordingly.

• SSD + HDD slow

  Despite the abundant discussions about setting up the right hard drive for Lightroom (v 4), I'm still struggling to understand what to choose when buying my new desktop PC without blowing my budget.

  Guess this processor, RAM, card mother and all those who are up to the task, which should I go with regarding the HDD/SSD (under a limited budget)?

  I want a * calm * system with three roaring 10 000 rpm hard drives so no choice. If anything I would use low power and low noise (5400 RPM) hard drives, which could be combined with an SSD. What a stupid installation with hard drives being a neck of the bottle? For example, is a 128 GB SSD (for the OS Windows 7/64, apps, cache LR) + 1 TB 5400 RPM HARD drive (for image files) a good compromise between performance and noise?

  Jalamaar

  No, since there is no trade off the coast.

  Even green read hard drives to above ~ 100 MB/s, which represents a fraction of one

  in the second place for a raw file. And requiring them random access has no importance for

  files larger than 10 to 20 MB.

  For example, is a 128 GB SSD (for the OS Windows 7/64, apps, cache LR) + 1 TB

  5400 RPM HARD drive (for image files) a good compromise between performance and

  the noise?

• Double disc SSD/HDD on MacBook Pro late 2011

  So I finally finished putting my double drive on my MacBook Pro late 2011. I ended up putting the SSD where the optical drive has been, since research told me that the end 2011 MBP is the lucky model with an optical drive that supports Sata III. If anyone can give me a reason to spend my SSD and HDD, please let me know.

  Anyway, now I ask to help with setting up my macbook pro to use two disks. I copied everything on the SSD and the SSD drive is set to start my computer to the top. I can already tell that this thing is so much faster now. However, I basically just have two exact copies of my all my stuff on the two disks. How can I configure my computer to know which drive to use? I want a few things to use my HARD drive and other things to use my SDD, not all at once. Where are these settings and how to do?

  Thank you in advance!

  Hi Jdsr4c:

  I have a Macbook Pro 2011 start.

  I installed a 500 GB Samsung 850 EVO instead of HD.

  I moved the HD to the optical Bay.

  Optical Bay has 3 Gigabit speed. HD space has a 6 Gigabit speed.

  See the screenshots of my mac.

  

  

  The old HD, I would reformat is not bootable.

  I use my old HD for storage of movies, etc.

  So for example, I'll download a movie and then move it to my old hard drive. I'll put it in a directory named for example movies.

  On the SSD, I'll do an 'Alias' pointing to the movies on the old HD directory (on windows, it would be a shortcut).

  In any case, hope this helps.

• Several options for the new Dell HDD - Latitude E6520

  Hi, looking for what are the differences in the different options by link for the replacement of the hard disk on a Dell Latitude E6520 below.  Hard drive fries, sending Dell Win7 installation disc and I have the drivers (and know where to go in taking in charge to get them if I can't find the disc).  Just need the right part!

  http://Accessories.us.Dell.com/SNA/category.aspx?category_id=7748&c=us&l=en&s=DHS&CS=19&mfgpid=208493

  The link below shows the different prices and impossible part because apparently the same exact product, a Dell 7200 RPM 500 GB hard drive.  Why?  Which I order?

  The machine is almost 5 years. You are not sure if it's worth ordering an SSD, but if I do, it will come with everything I have just Exchange, including the bulb for the end?

  In addition, since this will be my first time, always a new OS install: 1) any chance to recover data from my old drive HARD 2000 error code - 0145; (2) is all what I need to replace the HARD drive, boot from the CD/DVD drive in win7 to install windows, then download drivers when ending? Everything I need to know?

  Thank you

  Once the hard drive has failed, nothing can be recovered. That's why you do backups and images of the system on external hard drives.

  You can buy a new hard drive 2.5 inch laptop of any retailer. Get the best market in the list of dell for an old computer - see more details , see the plug. Do not get a ssd for the old computer. In fact, I would use the opportunity to buy a new laptop instead of spending $60 + on a new hard drive. A portable five-year-old is in his last breath.

  Install the operating system, means boot from the installation disk, select custom Setup to allow windows format the new drive. Here is the link to dell instructions-
