• Installation internal SSD drive and storage of documents on external hard drive

  Hello!

  I have an older iMac and I want to speed it up by installing a SSD drive.  Currently, my internal hard drive has 2 TB of storage, and I don't want to pay for one SSD of this size.  I consider the use of an external drive for my files and using the SSD internal applications and the operating system.  Can this work?  What is the internal SSD of minimum size I should get, more or less, according to my number of apps?   The documents will open at a decent speed?   It is up to me to use an external hard drive with a Firewire instead of USB connection?  Thank you!

  Hi Dan:

  Apps it really depends how much you use and what types of data you want to keep in vs SSD HARD drive.

  120-128 GB SSD: USD price: 60-70 price range.

  for 250/256 GB SSD: about USD: price range of 80-90

  for 500/512 GB SSD: about USD: price range of 130-150

  An external 2 TB drive: for laptop (USB bus-powered - usually 2.5 "HDD included): 90 us $, for the largest 3.5" Office style HDD: 90 USD

  For me:

  I store all my music on the external network drive (RAID 1 configuration, 2 TB, and 50 percent full this time), all my documents/pictures are still in my 500 GB SSD.

  I don't have much video projects on my SSD.

  

  I used about 200 GB in my internal SSD flash drive

  Good luck finding your best solution.

• laptop Pavilion dv6 1030 ca: hard to change disk SSD drive

  Hi, I would like to know that if I can change the current HDD with a SSD of Kingston 480 GB seria ata (sata) drive, my personal opinion is that I can, but I would like a confirmation of my hypothesis. Canord

  Yes, you should be able to install and SSD drive in place of the built-in SATA HDD.

  You should be able to find compatible HARD drives in the Service guide and maintnence for your laptop on the hp.com site.

• Satellite U400: Change a 250 GB on a 500 GB hard drive

  Hello

  hope you can help me...

  I am interested in the Toshiba laptop Satellite U400. The hard drive is to small for me.

  I just want to know if it is possible to change the hard drive to a new one with 500 GB. It must be a 2.5 inch as Samsung's Spinpoint hard drive, right?

  Or can someone tell me about another 500 GB that I can use for this laptop?

  Thank you...

  Hello
  Well you can use hard drives from other manufacturers like Hitachi. The important thing here is, it must be 2.5 "and the SATA interface. That's all.

  Technique, it would not be a problem, but I don't know if the BIOS will recognize the big HDD.

• Unrecognized internal SSD drive

  Having an Office ATC-605-ur19 w / HDD included.   Added an additional internal Sandisk SSD more (120 GB).

  The device is recognized by both the BIOS and appears in ther Device Manager (if the Type is "Unknown", the State is 'uninitialized', Partition style is 'not applicable').

  However, it is not assigned a drive letter and I can't access it at all. It seems that the drivers are up to date.   Any suggestions on what is the problem?

  Ok.  I'll give you two ways to set up your SSD.  The first way is an easy way and should work.  I tried the easy way and had a bit of trouble, so I ended up doing hard more (your time) way.

  Easy way:

  1. turn off your computer and unplug the power supply and unplug your HDD 500 GB SATA power cable (very important).

  2. make sure that your new SSD is ready (power and sata connected SATA data cable).

  3. Insert your USB recovery drive

  4. start your computer and the Acer screen, press delete on your keyboard to access your BIOS.

  5 go into your BIOS to activate "Boot Menu" and then save and quit (I think it's F - 10 to save and exit, but do not remember)

  6. when your computer starts, the Acer screen press F - 12 to get the boot menu.

  7. Select your USB recovery drive.

  8. Select troubleshooting and put your pc and when it asks if you want to re-partition on the SSD, say yes

  My advice is don't reconnect your 500 GB drive which can complicate things until you decide what you want to do with it.  And then I can help you with that.

  I would like to know if the easy solution does not work and I'll give you the long way.

• Satellite P50-C-12Z - SSD drive in a caddy DVD work

  I removed the shutter of the dvd drive Bay room and replaced it with a shopping cart. In the caddy is a 120 GB SSD. The SSDS works perfectly when the OS is Windows 10 and I can use it for data. At this point, I don't want Exchange readers.

  However, I am a Linux user.

  When Linux starts the player is never seen. The boot order is the same as in Win10, HDD, USB, DVD. Every time you start, I get the message:

  "device special sdb1 does not exist."

  If I then boot into Win10 and then start again in Linux, the SSD is located, can be partitioned and mounted correctly. If I stop and start again under Linux, SSD has disappeared! Why should he need to win10 to allow Linux to find it?

  The BIOS is the last and the SSD firmware later.

  It seems that Linux does not detect the drive on its own. I tried all of the suggestions I found in Linux forums without success and I was wondering if another user Toshiba had managed to get a disc, not necessarily an SSD, working in a shopping cart.

  The SSD I was using is not compatible with the chipsets Intel 8 and later so that was causing problems

• Is it easy to change HARD SSD drive on Acer TravelMate P246-M - 53T 2 14 "Laptop?

  Interested by Acer TravelMate P246-M - 53T 2 14 "Lpatop and that you want to upgrade to an SSD, it is simple to swap the disks or the hard drive built into the Board of Directors?

  Any information on this would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  It should be a regular SATA HDD and exchanges with a SATA SSD. I can't find guides to do this on a TravelMate P246-M - T 53, 2. Unless it has a door down to access the HARD disk and memory, you probably need to remove everything down. To the Acers you can take all the screws on the bottom and gently, she jump off and some will be tied down, so much, be careful of who and static damage electronics.

• Portege Z930 - need of external controller for SSD drive internal

  My Board TOSHIBA Portege (ex-portable) (Z930) burned with hot water. I removed the small SSD and now need to transfer the data with a USB drive on another PC.

  I borrowed from a friend a SATA USB adapter with 2 interfaces and even small connectors for SATA was not small enough for SSD from TOSHIBA. Apparently, I need a special SATA USB adapter that installs on TOSHIBA Portege mSata.

  The reason why I wrote here is because there are many SATA USB adapters in internet advertised, but it seems that they have larger connectors. While TOSHIBA calls the marked thereon mSATA SSD, but several people call mSATA for one size larger SSD.

  I don't want to order that something does not again. Is there someone who already removed SSD Portege?
  Could you give me a link for such adapter?

  The laptop was equipped with a chip HM77 Intel Panther Point and with the launch of the Intel chip allowed laptop manufacturers to integrate SSD form factor mSATA (micro SATA).

  There is also a difference between the mSATA form factors
  The mSATA being limited to four chips (NAND) only, Intel has developed a new standard mSATA called m2 or mSATA2.

  In many cases, this is also called NGFF (new generation form factor)
  This standard m2 is longer and has more low a profile

  I'm not sure if this Z930 Portege supports mSATA or mSATA2, but you check the internal SSD drive where this information should be available

  Best regards

  All these questions different so let's start with first.

  > simple I can install windows 8 Professional on the current installation?

  Read this FAQ from Toshiba document. It provides all the answers and a detailed instruction.
  [How to change Windows 8 for Windows 8 Pro | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD2B03F20002R01.htm]

  > what driver, software installed and other toshiba?
  Windows 8 uses the same drivers as Pro

  > What about the view when I run the u920t with an external monitor?
  What do you mean exactly? You can use internal display, external display or both at the same time

  Why not. Dynadock U3 supports own GPU so you can use 3 monitors at the same time

  Hello, I have a feel LIKE Phoenix 810qe 230qe Desktop PC, I would get another drive internal ssd for my computer and the clone with usb plug so I can't open up my case, I'll use a Vantec CB-ISATAU2 SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 supports 3.5-inch, 2.5-inch adapter, I like to know what kind of disk internal ssd I should use I see a lot of hybirds, but what is the difference? I want to get something close to what I have now which is 128 GB SSD drive.where or what would be the best...

  You say that you do not want to open the case.  Is it fair to clone the disk or you are not going to install it in the computer?

  I have a HP 810-135qe Phoenix.  I installed a Samsung 840 EVO 500 GB SSD2.5 ".  It works absolutely great.  I cloned my HHD using the software of the Data Migration tool provided by Samsung.  In addition, the Software Wizard to adjust the performance of the SSD.  There is a section to download at the bottom of the page in the link I have provided.  It is one of the SSDS a few who has a good reputation for installation without changing the BIOS.

• Supported satellite R830-182 and SSD

  Anyone know if there is news of SSD in Toshiba laptops?

  I ask because I have a Satellite R830-182 and I recently purchased an OCZ Agility 4 and it is not detected by the BIOS.

  I tried all the tricks in the book including the BIOS upgrade and switching between AHCI/IDE.

  Research online, find posts on this topic.
  The general consensus seems to be that Toshiba has actively chosen not to support other than their own brand SSDs. Is this true? And if so, is that still the case?

  Someone suggested that [by pressing Pause | https://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=244444𻫜] before entering the BIOS would help.
  Has anyone tried this before?
  Not sure that it is a viable long-term solution.

  Any other thoughts/advice on this?

  > Research online, I find messages on this particular problem.
  > The general consensus seems to be that Toshiba has actively chosen not to support other than their own brand SSDs. Is this true? And if so, is that still the case?

  I have Toshiba laptop and I could upgrade the laptop with a SSD 250 GB from another manufacturer. One of my friends with Toshiba Satellite laptop also use another brand of SSD 2.5 drive.

  But the fact is that the problems of compatibility between different devices (not always SSDS but other modules PCI as well) can happen and its nothing unusual in the world of large computing.

  As far as I know that some R830 models are equipped with a ' Solid State Drive (SSD) instead of a hard drive. Type of SSD SATA 2.5 "SSD SATA type 256/512 GB and 1.8" 128 GB must be compatible. "
  But its also a matter of SSD drive firmware. In many cases firmware drive SSD can be not BIOS supported.
  In this case the SSD drive would not be recognized correctly.

• Satellite U920T - touchscreen disabled when viewing is slipped on

  Hi Forum,

  I'm new here and I have a problem that I can't solve by myself, to ask for help.
  I use a Toschiba Satellite U920T-100 for more than a year.

  For about 1 week, once I have drag to the top of the screen to access the keyboard, the touch screen no longer works. When folded (hidden keyboard) touch screen works.
  I downloaded most of the drivers, re-istalled, even made a "go back" to cancel the update of Windows... etc.

  Try to change the settings for the touch screen under control panel, I get the message 'settings touch - and pen are not available. Contact the manufacturer of the pc (error = 0).

  Does anyone have an idea what to do?

  Donkey more, but can not be connected to the problem above: in the Device Manager, entry "INTEL WiUSB" shows a yellow exclamation point.

  Would be great if someone could help me. Thank you!

  See you soon
  Andreas

  This theme on the Satellite U920T touch screen problem has already been discussed in this forum.

  If the reset did not help you, there must be some kind of hardware problem (some types of losing the connection)

  Probably the cable isn't connected properly all backstage display.

  I think it s a job for an engineer of the laptop.
