RAID 0 on dv7-3080ef?

Hello

I would like to know if it is possible to make raid 0 on my Pavilion dv7 3080ef?

Kind regards

According to HP supports, my computer does not support the hardware RAID solution, but I'll be forced to use software RAID.

Thank you

  • HP Pavilion dv7-6103ei AHCI/RAID?

    Hi all

    Greetings from a poster first.

    I have a Pavilion DV7-6103ei laptop, and it has been modernized with a Samsung PM810/series-470 128 GB SSD with a 1 TB of HARD drive in the second span.

    I'm not necessarily interested in a RAID configuration, but I prefer the disks to run in AHCI mode.  However, I see that the BIOS does not support changing the interface of AHCI.

    I did some research and it seems that these laptops do not support AHCI.  Is this correct?  I'm not able to find information on the RAID, which allows to AHCI when there is no current RAID configuration.

    I have intel that Rapid Storage Technology installed.

    Is my only option to run these HDDs in IDE mode?  Seems a bit primitive for a laptop as powerful.

    If anyone can advise me on a work around or so to be able to operate in AHCI mode, let me know.

    Thank you.

    Greg

    You are the very welcome, Greg.

    Your BIOS of laptop computers is indeed set to AHCI and unfortunately, I do not know why the HARD drive is labeled as a scsi device.

    I guess that's just the Windows name assigned to the drive.  I've seen this before on other PCs.

    You can install the latest driver from Intel's Intel RST and to see if it makes a difference what anyone.

    3rd file listed.  Was also the AHCI drivers too.

  • HP dv7-6107ee: How do I activate/NVRAIDMAN to create raid 0 on hp dv7 6107ee

    Hi all

    I just added two ssd drive with the same size for my hp laptop and I want to install a fresh installation of windows on it and I want the two drive in raid 0. And I can't in any way in the base of bios.software or something else. Any help please, appreciate any assistance.

    Concerning
    Fady ghattas

    If there is no legacy/secure boot options in the BIOS (I think that yours isn't that) then there is no RAID option. Although it may seem like a 0 2 SSD RAID would be a fantastic thing, your laptop's SATA-II based and you might saturate the SATA bus very quickly, which means that you wouldn't see that a real life everything accelerates faster you will get with a single SSD.

    If you had installed the sata driver provided, model you will need an additional step to work around the error ACPI by pressing F7 seeing (press F6 if you need to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver displayed).

  • Disk configurations hard dv7

    I have a DV7-6c95dx with a single 750 GB HDD at 5400 RPM.  I was under the impression that I could put any dirve in the second Bay.  I was driving will get a 1 to 7200 RPM (or perhaps 5400) for the second slot, but the manual provides only four configurations below.

    Hello

    > > Do I have to be the same size in each Bay?

    LON

    > > I am limited to 5400 RPM on disks 1 to (and 500 GB)?
    LON

    > > can I add a 1 to 7200 RPM in second place to go with my current 750 GB 5400?

    Yes

    > > I could put two 1 TB 7200 unit s in this machine?  (Assuming that they are not too thick to fit).

    Yes, the old 1 TB HDD are a little thicker, but you can find many new 1 TB HDD now are only 9.5 mm thick

    > > Why the manual that see these four configurations in sets matching?  There are power/cooling/performance issues to consider?

    Easy for the RAID configuration I think.  NO.

    > > Also... the DV7 accepts really 12.5 mm into the two slots in the car?  The second drive Bay seems not that thick and I've read elsewhere that the DV7 takes up only 9.5 mm.

    As mentioned above, you will find that many of them are now only 9.5 mm thick such as good HDD, following fast:

  • 7204ed dv7 envy: Envy dv7 7204ed has a connection SATA 3

    When I install Samsung 850 EVO 2 TB SSD, I will have the advantage of SATA 3? Or do I need other drivers or software?

    Hello:

    The 7 series Intel chipset supports sata III, and I believe that the dv7-7xxx series have the drive connected to the sata III port.

    However, the BIOS isn't set to RAID, AHCI.

    Install the latest version of the Intel RST for TOPPING driver support in RAID mode.

  • How can I enable AHCI in dv7 6199us? And install windows on a SSD?

    Hello!

    I got help.

    How can I enable AHCI in dv7 6199us? And install windows on a SSD?

    Intel based computers, like yours, are usually set to "RAID", which is a superset of "AHCI". Basically, if the BIOS won't let you choose between "IDE mode", "AHCI" and "RAID", leaving in the RAID led to you everything done "AHCI". In this case there is no need to activate the AHCI, as RAID will support an SSD anyway.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • HP DV7 - 7323cl Hard Drive Swapping questions

    Hello friends of HP support.

    I recently bought a laptop HP DV7 - 7323cl and encounter several problems I hope I could get assistance with.

    First of all, I bought a drive SSD/hybrid I want to use instead of the original primary drive, as it is faster, has more memory space and supposedly consumes less energy.  I tried cloning the hard disk, which did not work as windows said it was missing a file somewhere in IPS (which it had).  Then, I made a set of recovery disks to reset to the factory.  Unfortunately, with this way, I get to 99% and I get an error code (I didn't write it!)  YARG ME, sorry).  I thought about doing a recovery on a USB drive, but of course am only allowed to make a single series of recoveries.

    Any thoughts on how I can get this second drive as primary?

    I did some research and finally discovered that he had something to do with the RAID drivers... who gave me this obstacle.  I complete the installation of Windows.

    If your laptop comes with English, french or Spanish version of W7 and you can read all 25 characters of the product key of W7 on the bottom of your laptop and do your own installation of W7 media.

    Here's how...

    Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a DVD or a 4 GB flash drive using the USB compilation method.

    Use the product key of windows 7 of 25 characters to activate your installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below. Download the Windows 7 version that is on your product (Home Premium, professional or ultimate) key to apply.  SP1 Refresh of media files are the latest ISO files.

    I wish I could tell you what sata mode is on your laptop, but I can't.

    Some dv7 it have to AHCI, and some have RAID. It depends on the series.

    For example, the model dv7-4000 series of this person has been on ahci.

    If you are prompted for a driver to support the hard drive during the installation of Windows? It's because the Manager of storage on this laptop isn't RAID, AHCI and Windows 7 isn't this RAID driver available on the installation disc. But fear not only intel makes the driver available here:

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/download/24779/Intel-rapid-storage-technology-Intel-RST-RAID-driver

    You need the F6 driver for 32 or 64 bit one correct installation that you do.  If 64-bit, you must f6flpy-x 64.zip. These are compressed files (.zip). Download the .zip to a different computer and extract the .zip to a USB key and when you reach him point the Windows installation when it is asked for a driver, navigate to the location where the files were extracted from the thumb drive. This should allow you to proceed with the Windows installation.

  • activate the AHCI mode on Envy Dv7 - 7398ca with SSD

    Year old i7 envy Dv7 - 7398ca notebook with SSD Samsung 840 Pro x 256.  Windows 8.1

    I've updated to the SSD shortly after I purchsed the laptop.

    No problem except the Samsung SSD Wizard software keeps tagging me as AHCI mode is disabled and must be enabled and I do not see it in the BIOS.

    Or I see anything that relates in the device as IDE Manager or other.

    It seems that the SSD is optimizing not itself based on the fact that it considers that AHCI is disabled.

    I apologize for the issue being this topic seems to be beaten to death over time, but I do not see what relates to this model or similar.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    The system is set to ahci or RAID mode. You can tell that by opening the Device Manager and look at the storage controllers. Anyway it is optimized for SSDS and TRIM is activated. You can simply remove the program from Samsung and rest assured that your SSD is optimized.

  • SSD in a HP ENVY DV7 7332ea and DIANE setting in the Bios?

    Hello

    I have a HP DV7 7332ea want. I recently put a San Disk Extreme 2 120 GB SSD as drive and put the HARD drive in the Bay secondary. I installed Win 8.1 clean and everything works well. I then worked my through the various settings required in the operating system for one SSD maximize its usefulness as travel page file on the HARD drive, deleting hibernation, switching to restore in Control Panel and the last was to change registry settings to activate the DIANE and select it in the bios. However, the "F2" for this model Envy Bios has no option for IDE or DIANE. What this means and am I actually losing any ability to form my SSD if DIANE is not enabled?

    Thoughts, General information or suggestions welcome

    Hello:

    The contoller drive in your model can be set to RAID and that cannot be changed.

    You can check that the speed control is set to RAID if you go to Device Manager and see a category of storage controllers.

    Click to expand this category and you will see a controller RAID SATA Intel that are listed there.

    As long as you have installed the driver Intel RST that you'll TRIM full support for your SSD in RAID mode and you should ignore all the warnings on the drive doesn't work is not in AHCI mode.

    Take a look at this thread for more info...

    Yes, the answer is the same for you. The RAID controller fully implements native SATA and is just as good as ahci in the optimization of the performance of the SSD. It will hurt you in any way the second mechanical disc by installing the Intel Rapid Storage program.

  • envy dv7 product # 2H77UA #ABA: 32 GB WSSD and Windows 10

    Hello:

    I'm a laptop dv7 product # C2H77UA #ABA with a WSSD of 32 GB which came with Win8. I've recently updated to Win10 and boot times now seem much longer. The entrance to Bishop of device for the WSSD LITEONIT LMT-32L3M-HP says it's working properly, but the events tab tells me ' device migrated not.» The Control Panel does not have a quick entry of Intel technology. I guess that means that the WSSD does not work under Win10. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

    The WSSD 32 GB training function is to use memory cache of your laptop speed up the access to the memory of the operating system.
