Portege R700 - SSD installation: a succesfull and the other failed

For what it's worth I just short wants to share my learnings SSD:

1. I bought a Newton GTX 500 GB Corsair for my R700 (i5, W7). Looked to work ok after normal cloning, but often the PC froze and I couldn't restart it. Only way to continue was to force its rotation down with the power button. I've always had this message when starting:

+ PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable for. +
+ PXE - M0F: exit Intel Boot Agent. +
+ Insert system disk in drive. +
+ Press any key when ready... +.

Only way to go was to force down once again and then the Pc may start and open windows. I've updated all the drivers I could think of-including Intel - but the problem persisted. Please note that this happened at the time with no systematic behavior, at least what I could understand.

2. I got cold feet for this behavior and I bought a new R930, exchanged relative small with a bigger Samsun 840 Pro 500 GB SSD HARD drive. No problem, works very quickly and smoothly!

3. I can now reinstall Windows 7 on the older R700 with the Corsair SSD - and now this machine works without any of the oldest problems, but I Don t understand.

Any of you have seen something similar?

Of course. PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable error is displayed because the laptop has attempted to boot from LAN.
Usually, this happens because of faulty HARD drive.

I n t have this laptop Portege but I ve bought the same shape of my laptop Tecra SSD drive.
After cloning, the data on the drive to SSD drive using the software, which was part of the SSD HARD drive package, start the laptop much more quickly. I m very satisfied.
