• Please recommend an SSD for Toshiba Satellite C660D-10W

  Hi people

  I'm looking for a recommendation for an SSD for my laptop, Satellite C660D-10W

  I want to perform a clean build - I have a new licensed copy of Windows 10 Pro.

  I bought a disc of Kingston after some research online, but subsequently discovered Kingston declaring that they do not support the use of this device in my laptop.

  Toshiba customer support put me on "Topaz", which recommended product + service (though not an SSD!) cost more than 250 pounds. For that price I can get a replacement of like-for-like of the laptop under warranty!

  I'm looking for a simple option where I can buy a SSD and do the installation myself. 250 GB to 500 GB for the region of £60ish.

  Thoughts?
  Chris

  I have a Crucial SSD in my C660 - 1 7. He turned my laptop. Boots in seconds!
  They have special offers for the moment like this http://uk.crucial.com/gbr/en/satelli...-10w/CT6696741 250 GB @£ 63,59

• Pavilion dv7-2005el: ssd for dv7-2005el

  Hi, I want to update my computer dv7-2005el laptop with AMD Turion x 2 Ultra 64, with an SSD.
  What brand and model is compatible with my laptop?
  Thanks and greetings

  No matter what type 2.5 inch SSD SATA will work. Your laptop is a SATA-II interface, but a SSD SATA-III works perfectly. I had luck with Samsung Evo 850 SSD. The SSD of only type for which I've seen consistent reports of problems is the Crucial MX - 100 series. And it's only for some HP models newer than yours.

• 256 GB SSD for dv7-3180

  Good evening.

  I just bought an 840 SSD 256 GB pro for my hp Dv7-3180us sumsang.

  I try to see if the bios SATA. But there is no option for me to do.

  What can I do? Help, please.

  You are the very welcome.

  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.

  http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

  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.

• More large SSD for my Pavilion Dv7-6c43cl

  Hello

  I was wondering what the largest SSD to put as a 2nd drive in my laptop? CSSD-F240GB3A-BK is a Corsair 240 GB SSD, Sata III, I was looking at. Can I put a 512 GB SSD laptop?  Also, where can I get the screws and cable and anything elso I need?

  Thanks for your time and God bless you!

  Stem

  You can put big an SSD because your wallet will allow.

  The housing and the cable can come from

  www.newmodeus.com

  It is the cable, do not know if you also need a shopping cart:

  You really want to install the SSD as drive. Ask an SSD for the second disc just for storage, that's like asking the Secretariat to take a hack in Central Park. It will work but what a loss of speed.

• HP dv7-3085dx power light flashes, but the laptop does not work.

  Hello! I have a HP Pavilion dv7-3085dx. It has a hard drive Bay 2.

  Recently, I bought the caddy + cable kit and an Intel SSD. The thing is, when I plug the sata cable to the motherboard for the laptop, and the SSD to it, the laptop does not light. When I press the power button, it flashes once (the power LED flashes once), but the laptop does not light. When I press again, nothing happens.

  I tried to remove the power supply plug, battery and plug it all again, but the power light flashes once (when you press the power button) and no reaction.

  Maybe it's the sata cable: when I remove the new cable and connect the SSD with the sata cable on the 1 hard drive Bay (the cable supplied with the notebook), it works fine. The laptop starts. And when I connect the former sata cable, with the SSD on the second hard drive Bay, it also works.

  I just want to now what is the flashing light means light? Why it does not work with the new cable?

  Thanks in advance! Sorry for my bad English...

  Emilio.

  It is possible that this is a problem with the kit. I would recommend to download and install the latest BIOS update for your laptop, using the download at the following link: http://goo.gl/rbHkg

  If it still doesn't work after that, I would recommend to suppress the kit for a replacement or to try another.

• HP Pavilion model: dv7 - 3085dx

  You help me find the correct supply for the dv7 - 3085dx who was just given to me by a parent?  the adapter that I use now will only work the computer and will not charge the battery.  I use a HP RN193 power supply now that is only turning off Watt 120 Volt 18.5 and 3.5 amps, while specifications provide 120 watts, Volts 18.5 and 6.5 amps.  What is the right adapter and where can I get one?  I'll damage my computer using the wrong adapter?

  Hi @JMM64

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand your concern about this adapter you are using. Looks like it is mislabeled or something, because 18.5V to 3.5 Amps is not out of 120 Watts, it instead of 65 Watts. Is this a HP one adapter or third party peripheral? I would not recommend the use of this card, in order to feature. The main problem will be if you attach other devices to your laptop, increasing its power consumption. It is possible, it will work, but could be erratic if you use external devices, or DVD, or put more tension on the graphics card of the applications. The system can just Brown out on you, because food can not handle the expectations are higher, when these conditions are met.

  For your reference, here's the HP Pavilion dv7 Entertainment PC - Maintenance and Service of Guide

  On page 3-10 in this manual is the part number for the power adapters supported, so presumably it's the 120W you are looking for. There is also an adapter 90W on the same page.

  Here is the part number for the: 120-W AC adapter 463953-001

  I have a Pavilion dv7-6178us laptop 'hand', and I would like to change the existing hard drive.  I understand that it came originally with a 750 GB SATA drive at 5400 RPM, but I inherited mine with only 100 GB SATA, OUCH!  I would like to upgrade my drive to a SSD for the best possible performance, and then add a larger disk for storage.  When you are looking for different drives, I came across SATA I, SATA II and SATA III and I can not figure out which is compatible with my computer or what he came originally with.

  Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us?

  What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance?

  What is the greatest player I can additionally ADD the SSD for storage?

  Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

  Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

  Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us? Specification the SATA is backward compatible. This means that disks SSD SATA type will work in your notebook. The SSD will be made only to the level of specification SATA your SATA controller is capable of. If the controiller is SATA150 so your SSD SATA600 installed work bandwidth SATA150.

  What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance? , You can install one with the largest capacity you can afford.  I would recommend not to install a larger than 512 GB. My own brand preferences are Intel, OCZ Technology, Samsung and SSD Crucial.  Purchase of the SSD in upgrade kit is the simplest solution. Upgrade kits come with a SATA to USB cable and cloning software making it a fairly simple process to upgrade the laptop. See the post-it that I wrote at the top of the section of portable equipment for some details on this. 

  What is the greatest player I can additionally ADD the SSD for storage? I recommend you not to install any disk hard legacy with a capacity greater than 1 terabyte. There is no guarantee that a superior who will work as expected.

  The following information is the maintenance guide & computer Support laptop dv7 to refers to the physical size of existing hard drives.

  6.35 cm (2.5 in) drives supports hard drives to 12.7 mm (. 50 inches), 9.5 mm (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in)

  NewEGG.com has some good reference on SSD upgrade kits and portable hard drives legacy price.

• 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.

• Is a good PNY CS1211 SSD for my computer?

  I own a MacBook Pro and I am wanting to upgrade the HDD with a SSD and I wonder if a PNY CS1211 SSD (480 GB) will be my fast computer. Also, I wonder if I can exchange my SuperDrive with a trolley that can contain a HDD/SSD without voiding my warranty. Please answer; Thank you very much!

  I own a 13 "MacBook Pro early 2011 2.3 GHz with 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 RAM.

  SSD drives... OWC (macsales.com) or Cruical are most recommended.  I've been running a Crucial SSD for 2 years without problem.  Samsungs have many problems reported here... maybe because of thousands used if the questions are obvious but even Samsung does not claim full compatibility Mac on their Web site.

  As for replace the Superdrive by 2nd drive... not really a 'guarantee' issue with a 2011 system that has left no guarantee.  But it is not exactly "authorized" by Apple.  You might get some resistance of Genius Bar if you take it in to... say... battery or display or the logic of Council's questions.  Probably if it was still in warranty the warranty would be void.

  Here is the Manual:

  Repair manuals

  See p. 40-42. There are two hard drive bays. You have a 1 TB drive 5400 RPM in one and the other is empty.

  All you need to do is get an SSD. I recommend the Samsung Evo 850:

  You need this second adapter bay:

  http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&cPath=2_5&products_id=577

  Move the old primary hard disk in the second Bay and the SSD in the main Bay. This will start since the SSD drive. You can make a Windows recovery disk and use it to install Windows on the SSD. Post back if this is not clear.

• Compatibility SSD for HP touchsmart all-in-one PC?

  Hey all, my parents have a HP Envy 23 Touchsmart all-in-one PC. The model number is 23-d117a.

  He has a mechanical hard drive 2 TB in it, and I want to replace it with an SSD for Christmas. I have no qualms with opening on the back of the PC and on the hard drive Bay to do the physical installation, and I can understand how to clone the content of the hard drive on the whole quite easily.

  I just want to know if there will be problems with compatibility. I guess most of the time a hard drive is a hard drive and that it will work as long as it uses the correct file format, but I don't know if HP has put any kind of limits on the machine that prevents him from working.

  In addition, it is less important, but if anyone can recommend a good support to the smaller SSD fit into the 3.5 HARD drive enclosure and again the line upward with the connectors, I'd appreciate it.

  Thanks for your time.

  Hello @Solidiquis,

  I understand that your question is if there are restrictions on the use of a DSS on your parents HP ENVY 23 - d117a TouchSmart all-in-One desktop PC. As much as I know there is no restriction on the use of a Solid State Drive on this computer. In fact, I found this document for computer explaining the differences. FAQ of propulsion hybrid Seagate Solid State. As for the recommendation on the necessary adapter unfortunately I can not make a specific recommendation, but I believe that everything will work. Here is an example of what you are looking for StarTech.com 2.5 "to 3.5" SATA aluminum box drive hard adapter with SSD/HDD up to 12.5 mm height.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Adding an SSD for Acer Aspire VN7 - 591G - 70RT (need help)

  Hello

  I have an addition an Acer Aspire VN7-591 G-70RT with a slow 5400 RPM 1 TB WD Blue that creates a bottleneck in my laptop.

  I checked on Crucial to see if there are compatible SSD for my laptop which recommended:

  MX200 crucial m2 Type 2280 (Single Sided) 250 GB internal SSD

  I was wondering, do anyone know if this information is correct? I was having mixed information online, 250 GB wouldn't cut my storage needs, if I could only get a 2.5 SSD "so my intention is to have an SSD 250 installed and my 1 TB HARD drive.

  Also, if the SSD was not the main drive would I still see the benefits of installing games who him? As in would be the existing WD blue always be causing a bottleneck?

  Any help with this would be appreciated!

  I have the device works now, I installed the MX200 Crucial m2 250G without any problem. Here's how.

  WEAR AN ANTI STATIC BAND:

  Step 1) remove all the screws on the underside of the laptop

  Step 2) use spudger or credit GENTLY lift a gap between the keyboard and the base, then use the credit card to slide slowly into the space to jump open clips, NOT FORCE.

  Step 3) (OPTIONAL) remove the keyboard connectors by moving clip and gently remove the cable from the Jack. However the HARD drive slipped in for me without necessary to detach.

  Step 4) unplug original WD HDD blue reversing the clip and disconnect the cable

  Step 5) close laptop together and boot with Windows 10 USB install

  Step 6) install windows on new SSD (for me windows automatically activated via the BIOS/UEFI) if it doesn't happen for you, simply re-attatch the original HARD disk.

  Step 7) if the activation is successful, again set HARD drive and original format. I have kept all the original ACER RECOVERY and Partitions (Healthy) in case I need to restore factory default, but formatted primary partition.

• laptop charger for dv7-1245dx

  My original adapter seems to be a shortage - couldnot find a replacement for adapter for dv7-1245dx. but after buying power 90w slim - I noticed that it was not listed as being compatible according to the compatibility list, should I buy another card and if so, what are those who will it take me?

• DV7-3085dx material

  I have a dv7-3085dx. The only problem I have with it is that the graphics are too slow for me Nvidia GeForce 230 M. I read that it is possible on some models and higher levels of laptops that you are able to improve these. When I bought this laptop, it was a high end at the time and I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade and what, where my upgrades options?

  Hello

  Basically, you can, with a cost, and I think that this cost can be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:

  • New price of the card, and WHERE you can buy it because the laptop cards are not the same office maps. You can't buy any normal store,
  • Need new card system (can be),
  • Need new system of cooling because in general more powerful card pumps out more heat (you want more powerful card don't you?).
  • May need new power supply because your current diet is not suitbale for the card. (I ordered a machine with the Nvidia card and I need to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal charger 65W. They rejected just my order.)
  • Cost of the work.
  • Packages a lot, a lot of aspirin.

  I hope this helps.
