  The best you can do is to contact Samsung and request recovery media to restore your system to its factory default state.

  Call Samsung to get a recovery disc - to find a phone number for your location:

  I managed to keep the button restore during the 5 sec boot process that initiated the request 5 restore Samsung which was then able to take the original installation of the hidden Partition image.

  Hello

  Adding an 840 Samsung 120 GB SSD evo after experiencing blue screen errors quite frequently on the current 500 gb HDD Momentus. Instead of going down the road HDD has decided to invest in a SSD having recently started working with design, software development. Have a black WD 500 GB internal, which is used for external ups back who will now be a secondary internal drive.

  Errors, crashes seem to be a common problem with me losing valuable data several times in the past, so don't can afford many more mistakes if you are looking for the most reliable, safe, an effective way to go whether...

  At the recovery of windows 7 CD bought a year ago, to restore from windows 8, computer laptop second hand purchase. Make a copy of windows 8 at the time.

  s summer absorbing much info as possible.

  Decided to clone the HDD to the SDS that seems very simple. I hope to have enough time to clone it sounds really as if it was his breath... strange distorted sounds.

  In any case have a special software which I can't find the cd for cloning would save me many things allowing me to go to my work. This will be possible with cloning, or is their something else I am missing to get a program to work.

  Have saved most of the files on the external HARD drive that I intend to use later as the secondary. So simply will delete them from the HARD disk as well as the programs files not wanted on the SSD as the 120 GB is not much room I guess.

  Will use free software provided free of charge by samsung that seems to be good for the job.

  I know the answers are already mentioned here, but if someone could let me know if their anything I'm missing or could be used to improve things, the longevity of the SSD.

  The plan is:

  -Insert the SSD for laptop via sata to usb cable

  -With the Samsungs software clone disk to SDS

  -Set AHCI in the bios

  -restart the laptop

  -enter in bios

  -Select the boot order to SSD first.

  -AHCI box

  -Save and enjoy

  -If everything stops correctly, power on, insert hard disk backup into the secondary Bay and it's all good

  sounds good?

  Been reading a lot about files which are re-written or modified attribute as a page file of OS which does not have to be registered on the SSD. In any case their links I have for what seem to be simple. Directory for saving files using programs will be on the HARD drive. Can still move after anyway

  Nothing else to ensure the sailing smooth completely?

  Hello

  It's great that you decided to do a new installation instead of cloning. Cloning of a HDD failure can cause a lot of problems in the long term.

  When you install Windows be sure to disconnect your old drive HARD and WD Black drive PC's HARD otherwise, Windows install will place the system partition booked on one of the hard drives.
  The drivers, you can just put on a USB stick and install from the USB after Windows is installed. Good luck.

• Pavilion p7 - 1227c: SSD install problems

  I have a Pavilion p7 - 1227c. Only the keyboard and mouse and connected monitor.

  I installed a new 240 GB Intel SSD Kit.  I released the original disc of 2 TB and used the SATA and power for the SSD connectors.

  I restarted and put the 1st recovery of 4 DVD in the slot.  Next-System Recovery (run the media program) started with the installation process,

  restore the factory step 1 image, reformat the HD windows partition, but stopped almost 29% in 1 DVD with the following message.   "hp recovery manager cannot restore your computer by using the original image.  "Please contact HP support 0xe0ef000e error code.

  Which is weird, the recovery dvd created 4 partitions on the SSD drive-> (100 MB/Healthy primary part, 98 GB/Healthy primary partition, 110 GB unallocated and 17 GB primary partition ACTIVE healthy with a startup folder, hp, preload and recovery).

  My goal is to have SSD boot windows 7 and applications. and the 2nd disc (the original 2 TB) for all files (documents, photos, music).

  To start, I recovered and connected the original 2 TB drive with SSD and looked 'disk management '.  The SSD is showing with NTFS.

  So, how can I get windows 7 installed from the recovery on the SSD disks (with or without the original disk is connected?

  I wanted to do an install clean, but anyway to copy of win 7 into the SSD?

  So I messed up in the installation procedure.  Best way to start over.

  You are the very welcome, Chuck.

  2008 15 "Macbook running OS 10.9.5. Time Machine backups are in agreement, on an Iomega eGo 1 TB external.

  I installed a new SSD (Crucial), but during the restart on the backup drive I get the question mark flashing. Reinstalled the old drive hard and everything is back to the old normal. Any suggestions? Could it have to do with the version of the USB cable? But why no problem with externally in combo with the old drive? Should I put another Time Machine backup on an external new or different, and then try again to install the new drive? I should try a different usb cable that is provided?

• Y410p SSD install?

  I recently bought a Y410p and an mSATA SSD, I hoped to install in it. I had assumed that there will be a pair of mSATA slots available, although he had no way of knowing since Lenovo does not document this information for consumers.

  From the opening the laptop up, I saw an article in a corner which appeared to the right size for one SSD chip to keep his friends, but I didn't recognize what was the port, it was absolutely not mSATA however. Not sure if the HannStar label in this area is relevant for the connector. Attached are images.

  

  

  As it is, I have two questions.

  (1) the Lenovo Y410p there a housing unit of secondary storage, and if so, where it is located and what kind of connector should I use?

  (2) what is the connector pictured above?

  I appreciate any help with this.

  Unfortunately, the mSATA drive does not fit into the computer. We have no choice but to wait for the next generation ssd is coming
  Outside. The good side to this subject, it is that we will get the readers who read up to 1, 800mbps vs 555 now the fastest disk.

  Recommended order to install the important drivers...

  1 chipset installation utility.  Install and reboot.

  2 Intel and nvidia drivers graphics. Install Intel first, reboot, install nvidia and restart the computer.

  3. audio. Install and reboot.

  4 Ethernet. Install and reboot.

• mSATA SSD installed in Inspiron 15r SE 7520

  Hello

  I just finished the task of replacing marathon 32 GB SSD with a 240 GB mSATA we.

  I cloned my existing hard drive with Macrium reflect, and his beautiful fixed so far.

  I have a few questions tho.

  (1) the original 1 TB HARD drive and the new mSATA SSD have additional partitions hidden. There is a 500 MB EFI system partition, a 40 MB OEM partition, a recovery 490 MB, drive C partition (on the SSD and renamed E disk the disk of 1 TB) and a final recovery 12.16 GB partition.

  Can I remove the additional partitions since the original 1 TB drive? Do I need them on the new SSD more?

  (2) Intel rpaid start continuous technology to Flash a warning that he is not running. I've turned off to allow the DSS work. Then I uninstalled it. I get the warning tho. Any way I can get rid of him?

  Thank you!

  Ok thank you.

  If the million dollar question: how to do a fresh install of windows 8, or even windows 7 if it is easier, on the mSATA SSD?

  I tried from the DELL restore USB I did. No luck. Put the original image on 931 GB HARD drive.

  If all goes well a new facility can sort, which brings back me to the issue of the $ 1 million!

  EDIT:

  Think I've sorted it. I used macrium reflect to remove all hidden from the original HARD disk partitions. I changed the BIOS to boot from the mSATA SSD first, using UEFI and start-up.

  I uninstalled quick start windows 8 search engine. Everything looks good today.

• Inspiron 17R-N7010 new SSD installed, now I need Windows 7 operating system installation CD.

  Hi guys,.

  So my HDD on my Inspiron 17R-N7010 completely stock * on me last week, so I just gritted my teeth and just bought I have completely new SDS and installed last night... now, however, I need to reinstall the operating system. Problem is that when I bought the laptop, Windows 7 is pre-installed, so I don't have to drive to it. How can I do to get an installation disc, and how much it will cost if I can get my laptop up and running again? It's an outdated OS and the laptop is almost 6 years, I can't imagine which costs a lot. There is also a store Microsoft directly by me, can I go ahead and buy the disc of Windows 7 OS you think?

  In addition, the original HARD drive was 640GO and this new SSD is 500 GB, so the recovery disks that I made when I got the laptop are unnecessary since Dell Datasafe Recovery (or whatever we call it) keeps telling me the hard drive needs to at least 590GB of space (or something similar along this message). The smallest space on the SSD isn't going to be a problem with the laptop in general or during installation of operating system Windows 7 is?

  You will need to call Dell - they usually sell a set of recovery media for about $25 in the United States, the United Kingdom and the Canada.

• Improvement of the system: need page file, SSD install tips, etc. Win7 i7 generation

  Gents, it's been 4 years since I built my i7 LGA1155 based system and I have to type of upgrade (sh! t happens). It is not a full upgrade. I don't have enough green to buy a new vid card and am carrying on my storage drive.

  I bought a Samsung 850 Pro 256 GB SSD for my OS. The MB is an ASUS Z97 WiFi ac USB3.1 running a 4 GHz i7. The Z97 has Intel and ASMedia ports.

  
  

  My current configuration has a 120 GB for Win7, two Samsung Spinpoints SSD in RAID 0 as my D drive (my scratch disk, which has worked perfectly) and two WD black 1 TB in a RAID mirror as my E drive where I put all my videos, audio files (mirror raid because I'm insanely paranoid). I have also now a 2 TB backup Synology (external) so that the internal working paper mirror will not be necessary.
  

  
  

  So my setup will be:

  C drive: a single SSD with Windows 7

  D drive: two Samsungs in a RAID 0 (as I have now - although I will buy a large SSD on the road)

  E drive: WD Black (no more than mirror)

  Then readers of DVD and BD.

  I'm using CS5 Production Premium. That's what I have. I will not be able to level up to the end of this year or early next. Updates are no longer available normally, but apparently I can download a significant update to Adobe file and use it to manually update the CS5. I don't have this info right now (I think it is called "mul PremiereProTrial 5.0.3 Adobe UPDATE").

  
  

  It's been so long that I have installed Windows 7 (and I had my favorites on the subject so many links is now dead) I ask some advice on some details.

  My Windows 7 doesn't is selling at retail, but from 2011 so no SP1. I have already downloaded all the updates via WSUS Offline if I can do a proper update once installed Win7. This will be my first time through this method, but people swear by him.

  I know that my older Win7 installation CD will not see the new SSD, so I download the drivers for the SSD and also for my Intel and ASMedia SATA on the Z97 MB ports. I'm still not sure of exactly how this will go.

  A question I have is with the page file. I think that Windows automatically detect it on the operating system drive.

  I should he move to the D drive? I don't want to do anything that could cause me pain. My page file has always been on my C drive (if the memories are good).

  All the tips on this point and in my build system are greatly appreciated. I had so many links is dead now, so I'll try to find what I need. For example, what codecs I should download and install.

  By the way, I'm now change anything over 2 K. It is usually footage DSL, HDCAM stuff, as well as lot of Super8 who was captured 1080 p from QuickTime or ProRes files.

  for the pagefile, advice to move out of the ssd. It was at the time where the ssd did not last very long and it was an attempt to give them a longer life expectancy. now ssd last much longer is allowed to place the pagefile on ssd. When it comes to the filename of the page, you want it on a fast reader. the more memory you have at least windows will have to exchange information in RAM to the paging file. so if you have enough ram, the swap file usage will be less to reduce the wear and tear on any drive.

  codecs must be installed if used as a keeping clutter out of windows. most install quicktime for prores and dnxhd/r codec.

  Apple - QuickTime - Download and watch videos, movies, and shows.
