Portégé R600-102: what SSD for upgrade?

Hello everyone.

I want to upgrade my SSD the real 128 GB to a bigger: what are the specifications for the new SSD to work? Should what interface have? What physical dimensions?

Any help will be appreciated.

TIA,
Flavio.

Hello

I guess that the SSD upgrade is the same as the upgrade of the HARD drive.
The laptop support SATA controller, you will need a SATA SSD.
The old drive SSD is 9.5 mm in height the new SSD drive should support the same height.

Given that the SATA controller is not limited to any size, it should be possible to use the SSD drives more of 128 GB but there is still a matter of BIOS support.

Unfortunately, it s unclear to me if the BIOS would support more large SSD drives, but generally this should be supported.

    Hello

    As far as I know that the TOSHIBA Mobile Extension software should be updated to the State.
    Real software version is 3.87.00.

    Go to the Toshiba European page and update this!
    Also, please make sure that the BIOS is up-to-date as well!

    The use of both VGA and DVI ports should be possible since the R600 are supported by this feature.

  • What SSD for early 2009 imac?

    Hello

    I have a question to choose the good ssd for my imac 7y/o (9.1) since early 2009.

    I found a few good SSD as the samsung 840 BX100 or critical, but I've also read several times that a ssd sata3 will use sata1 when installed on a sata2.

    And that is why it is better to install a sata2 ssd.

    IS that still the case today? Given that these messages are coming from 2013.

    Or is that I can put in an ssd sata3 and it will run on sata2?

    Kind regards

    SATA III drives that use the Sandforce controller will come back to SATA I speed if installed on a computer that uses the Nvidia MCP79 SATA controller. Samsung does not Sandforce. My Macbook in early 2009 with a Samsung 840 (pre Evo, not Pro) negotiates the SSD SATA II speed, connected to the MCP79.  OWC also still sells SATA II disks, I have one in my late 2009 iMac. I chose this drive, even if it was more expensive because OWC insisted that my model should have the Nvidia controller but in reality it has controller Intel 5 series. I didn't take my iMac except more than once.

    Confused? Yes I know...

  • What SSD for XPS 435 MT?

    Going to install a second hard drive in my XPS Studio, looking for suggestions:

    Apart from adding memory and replacing the card system in a Dell laptop, got lucky with the assistance of excellent books on this site, I don't have much experience on the hardware side.

    There are a plethora of SSD drives.  Is it my imagination, or are they all 2.5 "?  Do I need a conversion Kit?  What about a data & power cable?  How about a given car new?

    What type of SSD drive would recommend?   Wish it were big enough to use as a disk system/primary.

    Thanks in advance,

    daemoncycler

    It is not simple to install an SSD in the 435MT. There are a few 'Catch 22' problems in this regard. Support TRIM is absolutely vital with an SSD. Without it the SSD will eventually become slow or slower than a normal HARD drive. So that the FILLING of the function, the SSD must use an AHCI driver. It will also enable the NCQ, giving you all the speed that your SSD is capable of more SATA 2.0, which is a 3 Gbps max. Another advantage is that it makes your SATA and eSATA ports connectable capable hot, but not necessarily hot capable. (The difference is pluggable hot medium you can add a disk, but not remove it, it is hot you can add or remove a disk with the system running.)

    Unfortunately, the Intel X 58 + ICH10 chipset on the mobo to the XPS 435MT isn't complete. Reference Dell limit the abilities of the chipset. While the onboard Intel SATA controllers can support the AHCI, they run in the default IDE mode. The BIOS is also limited at the very least, more like paralyzed, in fact. In the BIOS, under Advanced Chipset Features > SATA Mode, there is only a choice between IDE or IDE RAID being the default value. However, by selecting the mode SATA RAID, AHCI is enabled on all four SATA ports and eSATA. Of course, if you enable RAID after that your operating system is installed, all on your SSD or HARD drive will be lost and you will need to reinstall new OS. Thus, enable RAID in the BIOS of the 435MT before installing the OS on your new SSD.

    The problem next you will likely encounter is a failure of your operating system installation. This is described in the available MS 2466753 Knowledge Base Article here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753

    It is a known problem with Windows 7 and Windows 8. Know well on Vista. There are solutions involving the modification of the system registry by creating keys, subkeys and values, as well as workarounds for workarounds depending on what controller uses your SSD. Assuming that at some point you get your system up and running from your SSD, there is another problem that arises when you insert a blank disc in your burner. Your system will probably freeze or crash entirely. It's because of your optical drives also in AHCI drivers when they should use UDMA/IDE. When you select RAID for the SATA Mode in the BIOS, all SATA ports switch to AHCI. Thus, before using your or optical drives, check in the Device Manager to see if you can change the driver for the SATA optical drive controller in the operating system to UDMA/IDE.

  • What SSD for T440p (2014)?

    Hey guys,.

    I have a few question and would be grateful if someone could help out me.

    (1) I bought a ThinkPad T440p and want to update with a 500 GB SSD HARD drive. When you purchase the SSD drive, are there compatibility aspects? I am looking to buy Intel SSD 530 (https://www.mimovrste.com/diski/intel-25-ssd-530-480gb-sataiii-ssdsc2bw480a401).

    (2) to install the SSD drive, should I change something in the BIOS?

    (3) where can I buy an original ultrabay for this model (I want to keep the 500 GB HDD as my 2nd drive)? I see a few options alternative on eBay and Amazon, but I wish I had the original, so the performance and the quality will be OK.

    Thank you!

  • Upgrade to SSD for MacBook Pro 13 "(2011)

    I want to upgrade to a hard drive SSD for my notebook Early 2011 MacBook Pro.

    What are the specifications of the SSD looking?

    Is that the kind of 2.5 "(7mm)?"  I was looking at the card SanDisk Ultra II or similar model.

    What is the process or the workflow to change SSD?  (he just plug or do I need a prop?)

    I backed up my current HARD drive for Time Machine on a G-Drive external hard drive.  Can I restore my backup for the SSD of Time Machine, or are there additional steps?

    Thank you in advance.

    Any SSD with a box 2.5 "will be compatible with your MBP.  I recommend OWC SSD or critical based on my experience and other participants of CSA veterans.

    Installing the SSD is the same as for a traditional HARD drive.  Watch this video:

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_13_unibody_early11_hd/

    You must format the SSD in Mac OS extended (journaled) disk utility.  You can use Time Machine to restore your data on the SSD.

    Hello

    SATA III is backward compatible with SATA II. I think that your machine uses SATA III. You can check yourself by using the following small program:

    (Check out, to the title of the disk controller, SATA III is 6 GB/s)

  • Upgrade SSD for Dell XPS 15 9550

    Hello

    I have Dell XPS 9550 with configuration 32 GB SSD + 500 GB HARD disk. I want to upgrade SSD for more space avaliablity.

    But I don't know what type of SSD, I'll need to buy. Also, I read XPS 15 to repair. There are two chapter for the removal and replacement of the SSD in the maintenance manual. First chapter of half-length SSD, second chapter SSD full length.

    What type of SSD is mounted in my laptop? Half or full length?

    How can I identify necessary SSD for me in stores (dimensions, label, etc.)?

    What interface for SSD do I need?  PCIE or SATA?

    What is the map? M2.2280 or PCI-E AIC (-expansion card)?

    Thanks in advance!

    These are all numbers of Dell and descriptions.

    The system uses a PCIe (or is if you want a faster player), 2280 m2 or small size.  UNLESS you buy directly from Dell, it is best NOT to buy versions OEM of SSD (Samsung end pieces in a '1' vs '0' for details).

    OEM spare parts are usually not compatible to end-users by the manufacturer.

    Because you will probably install the operating system for the new SSD, don't forget to make a recovery media set, you need to load the operating system on the larger capacity disk - what you have now is just a cache for the main hard drive.

  • Upgrade SSD for Macbook Pro?

    I have a Macbook Pro (early 2011) and I would like my mac by installing a SSD 15'. He got a 2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor. My laptop started to slow down a lot and it lags when I use photoshop or when I'm editing videos, so I thought I should spend my hard drive for an SSD. But I don't really know what SSD to buy it. My friend recommended the Kingston SSD UV400, but I read that some people have complications after installing the SSD on their Macs. I really don't know much about these things, I'm looking for insight. Someone at - it recommendations for SSDS, I should get? I'm looking at a minimum of 480 GB for storage and, ideally, something lasting!

    Thank you very much!

    Currently, the best options are the OCZ ARC-100 series, the 850 series of Samsung (good price on Amazon) and 6G OWCseries. OWC also has tool boxes if you need it and installation tutorials. If you want to keep the HARD drive then you buy one of their media DataDoubler to put the old HDD in the space occupied by the optical drive. It can even include an enclosure for the optical drive.

    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.

    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.
