Replacing the dv6-7014nr autour former hard drive - it'll work?

Here's my dilemma:

My new dv6 7014nr, customized by the dealer with performance 12 GB of RAM and a disc of hybrid SSD 750Go (best decision I did!), has a bad keyboard: the 'C' button keeps jumping off the power. They offered to replace the laptop.

Problem is, I have sensitive data on my hard drive and I want him to stay here. So, here's the plan:

I'm very comfortable in pulling the hard drive and leave it here. The dealer will build me a dv6-7014nr, 12 GB RAM, SAME performance all the same and ship it to me without a hard drive. I've happily jump in my 'old' hard drive and rock on.

Which will work? Or the new material causes non repairable conflicts?

Thank you!

Welcome! And thanks for posting your question.

If the machine is, like you say, identical, there should not be any conflicts. In theory, any SATA hard drive should power be removed to any machine and placed in another computer SATA or external drive Bay. The only exception would be if your drive was encrypted. What suite of Windows is installed on the hard drive? (7 or 8? Home Premium or professional?)

  • w540 replace the cd for a second hard disk drive?

    Hello

    I ordered the thinkpad w540 last week. With a dirve normal hard drive and a CD compartment. I figured out after the arrivied to the computer I got a solidsate inside my xps 15 hp.

    In the best of cases, I would replace the CD drive, as says the config in the web page in timeline option could be done. How could I know if it is possible to replace the CD player with another hard drive?

    Otherwise I would try to replace the original disk for the solid state hard drive, but in this case I loose windows system 8. Is is possible to install again in the new hard drive with the same license?

    I was wondering just because it would be nice to keep the drive inside your computer instead of having to plug it in all the time, due to the faster speed, it would be good to use is as the primary dirver.

    Thanks in advance,

    -Jorge

    Hi, Jorge

    you will need an adapter "caddy" to house the second HDD/SDD. Ch right here in the forum, see http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?location=forum-board%3AW_ThinkPads&q=caddy... .

    For my W540, I use the caddy of http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=555 and have a very good experience over the years (W510, W520, W540...).

    Regarding replace drive HARD original with SSD, there are basically two possibilities - either you use the recovery option (create your own media - see google or trying to get a Lenovo - not sure it will work) or use a transfer software. I have used for years Acronis products, especially because it acknowledges the SSD and aligns everything as it should on SSD (won't go now too deeply in the alignment of industry and to this day).

    And if you want to run your W540 on steroids, alias max possilbe storage capacity, see my signature...

  • I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now want to import some RAF b HD files

    I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now have to import some RAF of the HD files but LR shows them as dazed out and said that they have already been imported when I hover over the thumbnail. I have this problem when importing files in the same HD Canon CR2, and who have been treated exactly the same. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Thanks, Phil

    Hi Phil,

    If Lightroom then reads these as duplicate files, it shows that they are already present in your Lightroom Catalog.

    You can search by file name and check if the image is present in your library.

  • After mainboard replace my HARD drive with password works on TECRA S11?

    I hope that my local service center will replace my TECRA mainboard (later I'll tell why). Will my drive HARD with the password protection work and my files accessible encrypted fingerprints after a motherboard CPU replace?

    Windows 7 Pro will start in after this 'upgrade' hand / replace?
    (I have read the thread similar Tecra S5 topic, pls do not link which closed thread)

    Hello

    Usually, the HARD drive password should work after the replacement of the motherboard.
    The fact is that the HARD drive password is stored in a special area of the HARD drive and should not be an issue this motherboard has been replaced.

    I found this info in the knowledge base of Toshiba:

  • My hard drive is filling up all the available space on my hard drive

    Original title: my drive is 'eat' himself!

    Something happens in my system which occupies all the available space on my hard drive.

    I deleted everything that I possible can, but as soon as I create a space that it disappears.

    There is apparently a function involving my e-mail archives or my installation "restore."

    Recreate the data but do not delete the file/data who is who replaces it.  What has

    happened in the past, but at that time, it was the result of my control one inadvertently

    email replication function... this time I got nothing done to cause this duplication of work.

    When it started to affect my system this time I looked for things to remove and found

    many of my emails in the "sent" folder had been duplicated.  I immediately removed all

    These duplicates and has acquired an important place but in a short period of time the

    disc had been filled again.

    I ran anti-virus (McAfee) and combating malicious programs (Malwarebytes) without finding

    anything that can be causing my problem.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Replacement for Dell Latitude E6230 HDD (hard drive)

    Hello.

    I need to replace my old HDD in Latitude E6230.

    I found in the store a 500 GB HARD drive model, but I need to be sure if it is compatible with my E6230.

    Seagate Momentus 5400.6 fact (ST9500325AS, PN: 9HH134-500) compatible with Dell Latitude E6230?

    Thanks in advance.

    Finally, I could say that 9mm HDDs are not compatible with Dell Latitude E6230.

    I have consulted with Dell service center and they have confirmed that only discs hard 7mm will work with E6230.

    After that, I tried again to install 9mm in my E6230, but failed.

    So, be very careful when you get answers here not from official representatives of the Dell!

  • Transfer rate slow during the transfer of data on HARD drive

    I tried to solve this problem, but if I found similar questions, I have found no valid solution.

    I transfer files on a windows 8OS my Transcend hard drive. He has connections USB 2.0 and 3.0.

    whenever I try to transfer files on the hard drive, it works very well and quickly up to 5%. As soon as the copy of the file reaches 5%, speed decreases rapidly until it reaches 375 kbps and flows to 0 before returning to 375 kbps, always not to transfer any data whatsoever.

    I tried a few solutions without satisfactory results.

    I tried to transfer files on the pc or the pc itself to check if the problem was on my hard drive also. This is to copy the files fine and good intra-pc, but fails to copy to the hard drive.

    Basically, the computer hangs after completing 5% and stops to copy, although always playing 375 kbps speed, which, even in itself, is too slow...

    kindly give me a solution to this weird problem.

    Former title: slow transfer HDD

    Thank you for your response.

    It has proved to be a slightly different problem, and if you're interested, the problem was something with the interface between the computer and the hard drive via the usb port.

    When I connected the hard drive to the USB behind the cpu, it worked perfectly fine.

    I do not know too well, I understand the problem, but I'm glad that's solved.

    Thank you for your attention.

  • To access the other account via external hard drive

    MacBook Pro (13 inch, early 2011)

    V.10.11.6 El Capitan (15G 31)

    To summarize what I've lived, I got a kernel panic, by connecting to any account. So I tried to fix it by zapping the PRAM and NVRAM, tried the reset SMC, and both did not work. So I installed El Capitan on my external hard drive and it works, I just need to access the other account on the Mac to recover photos and then do a clean set install.

    The problem is that I do not know how to access the other account on the mac like I did not move any info from another acc to my external hard drive. Is it possible to do more than to reconfigure my HD post and return to the new installation procedure? Or I'm able to get pictures on the other account with the photo software?

    Open the drive containing, then the folder users, your record of departure, and photos. If you encounter a file that you don't have access permission, either drag it to the office supply your administrator password, or select the entire disk, choose get the information in the file menu and set to ignore permissions or ownership.

  • How to reset the password forgotten on external HARD drive

    Hello

    I forgot the password of my external hard drive.
    How can I reset this?

    It has all my photos out there I want to come back.

    The external HARD drive comes with software that the password. Have you used this software?

    I m not very well what HARD drive you have exactly, but in the case of the password disk HARD unknown could be deleted, so I guess that by using such software.

    But I'm afraid, this is not possible and if yes, then secure files could serve more than m.

    I say it in a different way: password protection would be useless if you can remove any unknown or forgotten password. Don't you think?

    If the file is always displayed in the Download Manager window, then you can use open folder on the shortcut menu. If this entry is grayed out then the file is no longer at this location to download. Possible causes are cleaning software or anti-virus that deleted the file.

  • What is the default Structure factory of HARD drive?

    I have a HDD on a L755-1J5 Satellite failure. I didn't create backup of DVD discs. Duh!

    While the primary partition has ceased to exist, I can recover all of the recovery partition.

    To avoid buying the recovery disks and waiting for their arrival, my thought is that I can use a new HARD drive I have and recreate the partition information, with recovery partition files, I've saved, using another computer.

    Then plug it into the L755 and use the HARD drive as usual BIOS recovery process.

    So, does anyone know the structure of the HARD disk factory default? Size of the partition, file lists etc.

    Or is it a non-starter?

    Thank you!

    Sorry, but this method will not work. HARD drive recovery facility will work if the HARD drive has the factory settings and the structure of origin made by the recovery image installation.
    A kind of backup copy of data on the original HARD drive will not work. You will not be able to start the installation of recovery due to lack of recovery option image.

    Many people have tried to do this, but without success.

    I want to save the file in my iCloud account, but free space in the hard drive of my MACBOOK

    There is no practical way to do it.

    If you do not enable iCloud Drive on your Mac, you can upload files to iCloud by car via the web interface at https://www.icloud.com

    But you can access the files from the web interface and won't icloud drive as drive in the Finder.  You cannot use the Finder to access the files. You need to download it to use.

  • What is the largest hard drive that will work in dv6324us laptop computer?

    What is the largest hard drive that will work in a HP Pavilion dv6324us laptop?

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01035677.PDF

    Support for HARD drives and capacities are listed in Chapter 3, page 3-25.

    Personally, I think you could install a SATA II 320 GB to your laptop.  Maybe even a 500 GB.

    You could also probably install a drive of 7 200 rpm for better performance or if the battery life between charges is more important for you, then stick with a disk of 5 400 rpm.
