• Firebird 802 - upgrade hard drives - Solid State / hybrid anyone?

  I'm upgrading hard drives on my Firebird 802 (the part the WEAKEST of my Firebird and the SMALLEST score on Windows Index). I replaced the drive secondary with a Seagate 500 GB SATA drive at 7200 RPM (ST950042 4AS) and REALLY improved performance (I have my file on the secondary drive).

  It's now time to upgrade the MAIN disk. I'm looking at a "Hybrid" car A Seagate ST95005620AS Momentus XT 500 GB Solid State Hybrid Drive - 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3 Gb/s.

  Has anyone tried upgrading the main drive of a hybrid? For a solid Sate drive?

  Thank you

  Enzo

  Well WELL, @ 10:39 PM PST after FOUR and a HALF and TWO attempts of the hybrid drive WORKS as my main drive on my Firebird 802!

  Using the data transfer software CMS Bounceback ($14.99 per download) the program was missing several files that were essential for the computer to boot. Once I checked the transfer journal and moved the files myself IT BOOTS!

  THUS, in a few weeks, I'll post the kind of increases in speed that I experience. First comment, my drives are running @ 98 degrees F. It's HOT, so I'll have to come back a fan for the hard disk enclosure, in fact, you can put at the front of the box and jump through this background grid. Going to put in place tomorrow. Now I'm BEAT!

  Thus, it CAN BE DONE on your Firebird! Solution, HERE!

  Thank you!

• 6400 upgrade Hard Drive just SHRUNK... Once again!!!

  First of all let me state that I am ready to throw my computer and TWO 2, TWO Yes upgrade hard drives out of my 2nd floor window!

  OK, my wind is done, for now.

  I have an Inspiron 6400 with HDD 80 GB of origin (73.1 GB space.)  I wanted to go to a Western Digital 250 GB hard drive.  I bought the drive and cloned it.  My first attempt was a purchase Norton Ghost program (after the $150 for the reader, that's another $50 for the program) I cloned it from the laptop via a USB - SATA connection.  Everything seemed fine, until I swapped hard drives.  He got through the BIOS, no problem, then started to windows.  Immediately, it projected blue and that was that.  Swap return original hard drive, everything OK.  Put old drive in the spare computer/SATA slot and realized that the reader shrunk to 73.1 GB. . the SAME SIZE as the original drive.

  After days/weeks and literally probably 5 to 6 hours of troubleshooting, downloading about 4-5 programs, utilities, etc, and have EVERY single utility, test and program otherwise tell me the car was very good (less the fact that he was now 170 GB smaller) I thought that drive was simply bad then returned.  (After fighting with Tiger Direct, I had to return it directly to WD, but they at least sent me a replacement unit before that I had to return the first...  (where my 'two' drives))

  So I have the new, 2nd hard drive in hand and I say to myself that I would be the clone differently, from my desktop (Dell 690) who had a few ports SATA spare on it.  I cloned it with a different program and once again, everything seems to be okay.  It showed in my office.  This time, I've set manually the new disk partitions to what I end up with.)

  So I put the new, larger, cloned drive in the computer, booted and BAAM!  Exactly the same thing.  Blue screen stop...  And guess what... The drive is now 73.1 GB. . and once more, there is nothing I can do to bring back to 250 GB... any computer, software, utility, etc. I throw at it or throw it out in...

  Back to Western Digital... but this time, I don't know yet what to say or how to proceed.

  My questions are:

  1. What is happening and why I can't get a 250 GB drive in the machine.  (I can't find ANYWHERE a maximum limit of hard drive)

  2. any thoughts on how to get my drive to the correct size of declaration?

  I'm really steam it... I have never spent so much time on what should be a simple question in my 15 years and more and about 20 + systems of computers through my hands...

  Thanks in advance

• Can not activate CS4 Web Premium after the upgrade Hard Drive Mac OS x 11.3

  I can't access any program now CS4 after upgrade my hard drive to an SSD. I get a small dialog box saying "license for this product has stopped working. Error code 150:30"MacBook Pro, OS X 11.3 (el Capitan). The chat tech support person told me that CS4 is "not compatible" with El Capitan, but I've been using Cs4 for several months now with El Capitan, so it's not true.

  In the past, when I've got a new Mac or upgraded the operating system, I had the opportunity in an Adobe dialog to enter my serial number in, but this is not the case now.

  Nothing has changed since this morning except my newly upgraded hard drive. Except that this time I don't have a way to enter my serial number and reactivate.

  Can anyone help?

• HP Pavilion P 6235uk: upgrade hard drive

  Hi, I have a HP Pavilion P 6235uk desktop PC.

  The hard drive is 640 GB.

  I would like to replace it with a hard drive to Go 1000 or 2000. The hard drive interface is Serial ATA 11. Mewmory type is DDR3-SDRAM. It is 8 GB. Just wondering if anyone knows what hard drive I can use and 1000 or even 2000 GB.

  Thank you

  laurencewithau

  Hello @laurencewithau,

  I understand that you are looking to upgrade the hard drive on your desktop computer, and I'd be happy to help you in this case!

  According to the Specifications of the product, you can update your system with any size of drive hard as much as it meets the following requirements:

  1. It has a SATA port connection
  2. The male power connector corresponds to the insertion on the replacement hard drive
  3. It is the same physical size as the previous hard disk. If it is less, you can always purchase a mounting bracket on the space difference.

  For more information about upgrading the hard drive, please take a look at this resource on installing or replacing a hard drive.

  Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!

• Pavilion 15 ab128na: hard drive upgrade from the Pavilion 15-ab128na

  Hello

  I am buying a laptop computer ab128na Pavilion 15 and wanted to know about upgrade capabilities.

  It comes with a disc of M.2 256 GB SSD but it maybe a bit small. Is there room for an additional HARD disk drive (such as the gaming notebook pavilion)? So I, for example, M.2 256 GB SSD drive and a 1 TB HARD drive.

  Or the model allows only for 1 hard drive, so I have to replace the SSD drive, it comes with a larger capacity SSD?

  Thanks in advance

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  This manual explains Star Wars Edition and the 15-ab128na sharing the same internals with this model.

  The problem is if your laptop comes with just the MSSD m2 I don't think they understand the mounting kit for a 2.5-inch hard drive. You must purchase the part on the secondary market in some way.

  Kit hardware hard drive (supports and connector) 809296-001

  http://www.eBay.com/ITM/809296-001-HP-15-AB027CL-hard-drive-caddy-Kit-grade-A-/171992018156?hash=item280b85ecec:g:2SgAAOSw7hRWPoW0

  In addition, access to the hard drive Bay is a bit of a chore and put security at risk.

  But to directly answer your question, the laptop is designed to have a m2 and the SATA 2.5 inch disk at the same time.

  You could also install a HDD as pure storage using the slot of the DVD drive with an adapter. Of course, you lose the optical drive but I find myself with mine very rarely these days, anyway. Use of this Bay, the warranty will not be affected.

• Pavilion DV6 2155dx: upgrade HARD drive to SSD

  I want to upgrade my laptop Hp HDD to the SSD. Very successful on the 2 HP desktops. But not a great success on the laptop. Windows does not start with the installed SSD. Black screen with how to text of amendments, but no solution. Checking the BIOS it seems too basic and has no provision to select the correct setting. How can I upgrade the laptop to recognise and start of the SSD, as desktop computers.

  Problem solved. Maybe this helps someone else.

  For reference, the SSD HARD drive migration has been completed with Samsung software tools.

  Although a similar migration was very successful on 2 offices of HP prior as the PC starts fine, this time the laptop set to level did not boot from SSD.

  Based on the reviews elsewhere on the web, with the portable operating from the original HARD disk, I adjusted the BIOS boot sequence to boot from the internal CD-ROM. I was then already migrated SSD HARD drive. Then I started from a prior agreement prepared the repair Windows 7 Bootable disc - now I know why they are so very precious! - and started to repair startup disk said. After a few additional steps miners, he says the problem fixed and carried out traditional, clean startups.

  Also, I can confirm that the Pavilion DV6 works very well with a 250 GB SSD. Most good, this is a speedster. There is therefore no limitations to 160 GB the HP Document seems to suggest.

• Upgrade hard drive HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15 to SSD

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15 with the following product information,

  Product name: HP Pavillion Sleekbook PC 15

  Product number: C6K58EA

  Will it be possible for me to upgrade my hard drive with an SSD? If so, what are the limits of the SSD that I can use?

  Thanks in advance,

  ISURU.

  Yes. You can upgrade the hard drive to a mobile (laptop) SSD. The SSD must conform to the following specifications.

  

  Hard disk, without illustration material, Kit (includes hard drive support and support)
  screws, cable and 2 bumpers) HP p/n 701945-001

  If your laptop is also a present SSD 32 GB mSATA, he can line be used as a disk cache via the software Intel IRST.

  The disadvantage is that it is that it will violate the guarantee that the hard drive is not known by HP to be part replaceable enduser. Upgrading a laptop of this type implies a disassembly.

  However, the hard drive on your model is much easier to go to:

  Repair manuals

  Page 49.

  I recommend the Samsung 840 Evo SSD. The price is usually very good and performance is also very good.

  Hi @LaurieJC ,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx Notebook and want to improve the hard. Here is a link to your service manual page 48 for Hard drive specifications. I checked on the possibility of installing 1 TB and it shows me if you keep to 1 TB 2.5 internal SSD SATA 6.0 GB/s • 555 MB/sec in reading, 500 MB/s write plug, you'll be fine.

  I hope that this address your concerns.

  Thank you.
