Replacement of an SSD in my dv6-2190us

Hello.

I currently own a dv6-2190us. My hard drive just burned recently and I was planning on upgrading to an SSD, but I have no idea of what SSD are compatiable with my machine and what is not.

Thank you.

Hello

Any good brand 2.5 inch SATA (II & III - two costumes) SSD can be put. If your SATA port is SATA-II, is no problem entering for type SATA - III SSD that are widely available on the market today. But your SSD would work in SATA-ii speeds only.

It is you Plug & Manual laptop links.

It's the SSD white paper for your model.

Your current HARD drive is a 2.5 inch SATA - II 500 GB 9.5 mm. Most SSDS are 7mm thick, but this would not be a problem because you're screwing on the hard drive carrier (Page 4-15 in the manual).

This video might help you identify the steps of replacement base, follow in any case the drive hard manual procedure R & R (Page 4-14 and 15 in the manual).

You can use the recovery discs that you have created to reinstall windows in the new SSD (can only work if the total capacity of SSD is at least the total sie of the HARD original supplied with your laptop - 500 gb disk)

You can also try clean install with Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 ISO.  Additional drivers for your model are here & if he asks for all SATA drivers, just try what I posted here - download, save & copy on a USB plug during & after installing Windows 7.

You need to maybe for Quick format & initialize, give SSDS a drive letter to connect it to another PC via SATA USB adapter, using Windows disk management tool before the clean install.

  • Failed to retrieve after replacing the hard drive on my DV6

    I replaced the hard drive on my DV6.  Insert the recovery discs, I had done and went through the process.  At the end it rebooted and was told that he failed.  Says to put 1 recovery disc in and try again, but just a loop even message.

    Hello

    Assuming that it's just a problem with the recovery media, here's another solution, you can try.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software offerings when you install ImgBurn) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

    Unfortunately my old HD optical 640Go dies and I need to replace it.  I would use an SSD.  Can anyone give me a suggestion on a good option and if you did, how does it work?

    Hi @sdlloyd,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    It's a great place to find answers and advice!

    You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the HP Guide's Forums:

    Learn how to post and much more.

    I understand that the original 640 GB hard drive has failed and you plan to install a SSD drive.

    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. Please note Chapter 3, page 36, section 1, the recommended replacement disks.  You will notice the 160 GB SSD is recommended only if you have an Intel processor.

    When I checked it Pavilion dv6-6135dx Entertainment Notebook PC specifications , you have an AMD processor.

    Other drives may work, but as they are not tested, there is no guarantee that it would be.

  • Replace hard drive SSD

    I have a 15 inch macbook pro late 2008.This came with a 250 GB hard drive that I partitioned

    two areas of 125 GB that appear as separate HD1 and HD2 hard drives on my desktop. I have OSX 10.5.11

    the HD1 and the last OSX El Capitan on HD2. According to what I want to do I can boot from either HD

    and so each OS. I want to replace my original with a SSD hard drive. The little material is quite simple

    but I want to retain the same configuration on disk partitions, i.e. 2 new with OS on each different

    and all applications and files for each. Basically an exact copy of the original disc.

    I have free external USB and FireWire HDs and a copy of Super Duper. How can I go about it?

    Use a utility like SuperDupercloning or double clone. Clone your original drive on another external drive firewire is bootable.

    Then after installing the new disk, boot from the clone and clone for the new SSD.

  • HP ENVY - m7-k211dx: replaced HD with SSD again, impossible to install network drivers

    Hello

    HD on HP ENVY m7-k211dx not dead, no recoverable data. Figured why not install an SSD so replaced by a new Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB.

    Note: I have built many computers to office since the Pentium 4 days, consider myself as an amateur

    Installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit without any problems (after activating the suport inherited in BIOS)

    Downloaded all the drivers from the HP site and copied on DVD

    Record fell with drivers on the desktop

    installed the chipset driver sp73543.exe, restarted everything is fine

    Installed USB driver sp70645.exe, restarted everything is fine

    Then tried to install two network drivers downloaded for this laptop specific to HP for LAN and Wireless support Web site:

    RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE Realtek 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Drivers -sp69888.exe

    Realtek LAN (LAN) driver -sp68120.exe

    First tried to LAN, Ran exe, checked the license agreements, etc. and it started to install, after a few seconds and error message pops up:

    "FindFile failed.

    After the closure of this pop-up a new error message:

    "Realtek network controller is not found. If deep sleep Mode is activated Please cable.

    Then tried wireless installation, after that starting exe command winow popped up a few seconds showing:

    "Please wait for the installation.

    close the window after a few seconds, nothing after that

    After trying several times to install drivers with the same exact results I went by the process of reinstalling Windows and go thru the pilot again installation process with the exact same reslts. Downlaoed new drivers with same accurate results

    Clues as to what may happen?

    Thank you and my apologies for the wall of text

    Hello:

    Normally the ethernet driver will install if you do not first install the chipset driver.  Since you've done, it's a good question, why you notification of deep sleep.

    Try the driver ethernet directly from Realtek and see if it works... 3rd driver on the list.

    Wireless should be easier to correct... parts list indicates that your laptop comes with an Intel 7260 AC wireless network adapter.

    I see no W7 wireless or bluetooth drivers listed for this card on the HP website for your laptop, so use the latest Intel.

    Hello

    I found on the internet some UltraSlim SATA HDD/SSD mounting frame that allow the use of 2nd 2.5 HDD/SSD drive instead of ODD in Notepad Tecra R950 but to be honest I m not 100% sure if the BIOS recognize such additional device.

    I know that computers Toshiba laptop (Portege and Tecra) series different takes in charge these updates in the past but this replacement was not supported by each laptop model.

    It depends on the BIOS and in the event that the BIOS recognize the 2nd HDD/SSD drive, the system should be able to recognize 2nd HARD drive

  • Replace hard drive SSD on end 2009 27 "iMac

    end 2009 27 "imac

    OS X 10.11.3

    3.06 GHz intel Core 2 Duo

    4 GB memory

    According to the genius bar, the Seagate 1 TB hard drive on my end 2009 27 "iMac is a failure.  They told me that they do not have the parts to replace and suggest I do myself or take it to Best Buy.  Best Buy said that they are unable to do so I can't to try it myself.  I read and watched directions to ifixit and several other sites.  I am convinced that I have the skills to do the replacement, but I'm less confident about the purchase of equipment:

    (1) Ifixit say I should use a Seagate drive to replace the Seagate drive I have.  Engineering made no mention of this.

    (2) engineering suggested I buy a Crucial BX200 480 GB SATA 6 GB/s 7 mm (with 9.5 mm adapter) 2.5 "disk flash internal SSD (part #CT7414188).  The essential site says I need part CTSSDCONVT a 2.5 "to 3.5" SATA SSD/HHD converter for 2006-2012 MacPro.  They suggest that it will work in my iMac as well.  Articles and discussions have referenced problems with noise from the fan and order and mention with fixes software and manual control of the speed of the fans.  When I mentioned questions fan of genius, he said not to worry about this, and the Crucial site makes no mention of him either.  The SSD costs $129,99 and converter $ 21,50 for a total of $151,49.

    (3) OWC offers aDIY Bundle which includes a 480 Electra of mercury GB 3 G SSD, newer technology AdaptaDrive to allow installation of the 2.5 "SSD and a digital probe online that eliminates the noise of the fan and maintains control of the correct system fan through management for the iMac system controller.  The package costs $199,75.

    Bundle OWC seems like a good deal but it seems to me that SSD Crucial works to 6 GB/s and the Electra of mercury to 3 Gbps.  If I go through the replacement, it seems more sensible to get the 6 GB/s.

    I wonder if I can mix and match and use the Crucial SSD with the Adaptadrive of more recent technology and digital sensor OWC.

    Any suggestions from anyone who has done this replacement would be appreciated.

    2009 iMacs have SATA 2 - meant 3Gbps rate.  It does not matter if you use 2 SATA and SATA 3 - you get only speed SATA 2.

    Second - the adapter for 2.5 to 3 5 - don't hang a lot of money on this,-l'ebay has many choices.

    My personal experience, support 'intel' works best - since it is the length, so the seat fits much better.

    Yes, you can mix and match - choose what might suit you best.

    For me, I had Apple OEM SSD (Samsung doing this - 256 GB, SATA 3) with intel on iMac 2011 (SATA 3 speed), with support from OWC thermal line sensor.

    Samsung 830 (256 GB and SATA 3) on iMac 2010 (SATA 2 speed), with support from Intel, with OWC thermal line sensor.

    Note: the probe heat 2010 and 2011 are different.

    Good luck.

  • PC HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT: Replacement of the SSD HARD drive and Recovery Options

    I have a PC HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT I went recently to drive HARD original for one SSD of 850 Evo from Samsung using Samsungs cloning/copying software. Everything went well and the PC is in use today. I do not see the partition D: Recovery on this machine more well, so I think this has not copied or was lost. I still have the disk that was replaced.

    I was wondering if there is a way to replace HARD drive like this with an SSD and everything by keeping the system recovery feature that was on the HARD disk, and if a set of system recovery disks of before installing SSD would continue to operate, or if I need to create new ones, and if I CAN create new ones.

    rgoodrich

    I did what you want to do (for example, to replace a disk with a DDI) and was able to retain the function of HP recovery - but it's because of two important facts.

    First of all, I used a DDI with the same capacity as the original HARD disk.  This is important because if you use a smaller SDS, the HP recovery feature will no more work as a reset begins with reformatting the drive and recreate the original scores - which will fail if the disc is too small.

    Second, I use Macrium Reflect product to 'clone' the HDD to the DDI, which means, he made an exact copy of the partitions on disk on the SDS.  So, when I swapped drives, the PC restarted without any problem.

    People have posted here on the use of the software from Samsung, and they seem to have problems restarting after use and (apparently) with successful copy from disk HARD original in the new SDS.

  • Z440: Z Turbo - replace the m2 SSD?

    Purchase of a new Turbo Z 512 GB card PCIe is too expensive, that s why I want to just buy a new m2 paste and replace the old. I am aware that I have to reinstall my OS.

    Or, to simplify, the m2 on the Turbo Z cards are a standard m2 card?

    Use Crystal info disc to find out what is installed and then you know what you need when you replace the 256Go. Crystal disc will tell you which interface is used.

    http://CrystalMark.info/software/CrystalDiskInfo/index-e.html

    The Samsung PCIE device you mentioned is not viable as a direct substitute in the HP Turbo Z card.

    It uses a NVMe interface instead of the MLC nand which uses theTurbo Z M.2 SSD .

    Pytor

    Sorry, but in your case, the answer is probably - no.

    Why?

    I'm guessing the age of your PC, the hard drive is an old legacy IDE form factor.

    Take it out and look at it.  IF she has a double row of small pins on the back, it is IDE.

    New readers, who are the SATA form factor, have two pins with strips plastic gold on them.

    SSDS are SATA, not IDE - which means, they do not connect to the same cables that you use for the hard drive.
