  • Installation SSD in laptop HP Pavilion g7 2025sr

    I want to add SSD in laptop - HP Pavilion g7 2025 sr. (premium SSD370 Transcend SSD 128 GB 2.5 "SATA III MLC (TS128GSSD370))

    Issues related to the:
    1. What about compatibility with this laptop?
    2. can I use an SSD on the maximum settings (reading-530 MB/s, 470 MB/sec)?

    No problem. The SSD to settle and work. However, ask if he will take full advantage of the potential speed of the SSD, which means really wondering if the SATA ports can do SATA-III (600 Mbps) speed of transfer. The used chipset, AMD A70M, is capable of SATA-III and all indications are that your laptop is going to make a transfer SATA-III. Even if not, the difference between a SATA-II and SATA-III is negligible. Using a computer, it's like driving a road course, not the name of Bonneville Salt Flats. Very rarely you hit the upper theoretical transfer speed. In order to do not overthink it just to go and enjoy.

  • SSD in laptop computer DV8339US?

    I want to know if I can put an SSD in my laptop DV8339us? He seems to have 2 100 gig SATA hard drives now with one of them partitioned for a recovery disc. I know that it is only SATA I and I will not get full benefit the SSD, but anything would be better than what I have now.

    Thank you

    It is a SATA drive. If you buy a SATA SSD or better SATA drive, you can simply reuse the caddy of the original. I'm assuming that the SATA drive just plugs directly on the motherboard? If you do not get an SSD at least to get a hard drive 7200 rpm or drive hybrid.

    This is a great record at a great price:

  • Windows OS 8.1 transfer between HDD and SSD on laptop (built-in two disks)

    Hi, I have an Alienware Laptop, 14, I wanted to transfer/copy/move my current OS (Windows 8.1) of my HDD (1 TB) to my (7.3 GB) SSD. I tried many methods I've seen online in other forums, I restored my computer whenever I between methods, when they fail. Yet, I need to find an effective way to do... I tried the following:

    -Start switched from AHCI RAID
    -Transformed into legacy prioritize boot from a USB device and tried to run AlienRespawn and Windows OS 8.1 (drawn from Microsofts website), twice, on two USB keys separate (both about 15 GB of storage).

    The result of AlienRespawn was simply did a cover of my HARD disk drive and my OS remained where he was, nothing has changed with my SSD. That being said, there is no selection in my START menu to choose which drive I want to start, for that, I guess I have to unplug my HARD drive so that it my laptop self chooses to run by using the SSD.

    The result of the execution of the USB with the operating system of Microsoft 8.1 is it says some sort of error, I googled the error online, he says to reformat the USB key and drop the operating system on it, and then try again. I did that twice, and both times found the same result (same error).

    I also tried to clone my HARD drive of my SSD using EaseUS, who put my documents and files on my SSD, but my BONE was still running on the HARD drive.

    I cloned partitions with Partition Master, with negative results, as well as using Tuxboot and Clonezilla combo to start my laptop using Clonezilla, but at the start he just asked me to remove all USB devices that did not have an operating system on them (I had a USB in)

    I also tried a few different USB sticks (I went out and bought three to try).

    The more recent method, I tried with the help of DiskPart. I executed what she says on many forums/sites, which involved cleaning/selection/activation disk 0 or no matter which drive my SSD was on. But once again, no result no positive.

    I'm desperate, I want to just run my OS on my SSD laptops, is it really so hard, or I'm just using the wrong methods and/or measures hurt?

    If anyone can help with a step by step guide that worked for them, please enlighten me!

    Thank you very much.

    I did a lot of research ahead, and this program kept coming as the way the simpler, cleaner to move the operating system, according to the people about these and other bodies.

  • SSD for laptop HP Pavilion dv6-6b05st entertainment PC compatibility

    Hi all

    I have this laptop and my hard drive is brokenn with the serious accident, yet I could not open my pc because I have no operating system on it, so I couldn't run a test on my laptop program.

    Now I decided to buy Solid State Disk, in addition to my HARD drive but I want to know if it is compatible with SATA III or not. I searched on google but there is not enough information about me, but for others, it fits.

    Is someone could if please tell me that my motherboard can support SATA III or not?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    The chipset of the motherboard of your computer is Intel HM65 that supports SATA III 6 Gb/s, motherboard under the information tab of CPU-Z .

  • Laptop HP 15 (r063tu): would replace drive HARD regular with SSD boost speed & performance significantly on my HP 15 laptop?

    Hello

    Regular HGST (Hitachi) hard drive failed on my HP 15 laptop and I chose to replace it with a spare Seagate Momentus 500 GB HDD (because of the emergency). I read in some other posts on this forum that SSDs increase startup speed and general performance much more conventional hard drives. In addition, seems SSD uses less power and generates less heat, which is optimal for laptop computers. Although SSDS are still quite expensive compared to regular hard drives (a regular 500 Gb portable HDD costs about Rs. 3500, or about $50), all in an SSD with a capacity of 240 GB Samsung / available on Amazon.in Kingston costs about Rs. 5000 (about $70). Thus, a half of the capacity of a normal HARD drive SSD hard drive costs still much more

    Would consider to replace my current HARD drive with an SSD if it's worth the investment (I intend to use this laptop for more than two years).

    Also, please confirm if my model supports SSDS, as he has probably that one Bay to hold an SSD or a normal HARD drive. Would be useful you can offer a good/model mark of SSDS as well. Thank you very much.

    See you soon!

    I support the opinion of Hüffer about SSDS and laptops.

    I replaced the spinner in my laptop HP 2011 with an SSD and it's like having a new machine.  It starts instantly and runs a lot faster, more I don't have to worry about the rotation drive going bad.

    An SSD is the best investment to improve the performance of your laptop.

    Good luck

  • HP laptop laptop 15-s104na: replace the HDD with SSD Crucial

    I have a HP/Compaq 15 - s104na with 2213 motherboard and BIOS F.24 with a 500 GB Toshiba HARD drive running Win8.1 (OEM).  Also have an M500 Crucial 240 GB SSD (firmware MU05) that Win7 worked in an old laptop Lenovo.  Thought I would try installing the SSD in laptop computer to speed things up a bit.

    However, although I have been able to clone HARD drive SSD (SSD connected via a USB/SATA bridge), when I installed it in the laptop, it didn't start.  The BIOS has been recognizing the Crucial SSD in the Boot Options, but then failed to boot from it returning 0xc0000225 (required is not connected).  Running the Recovery Manager HP of DVD has failed, too, is not surprising that DISKPART > LIST DISK did not show the SSD drive.

    Out of curiosity, I then tried a fresh install of the OS of a download of MS 8.1 using a generic key that gave the same result - not found disk.

    So, I guess there is something inconsistent between the motherboard for laptop and SSD Crucial.  Runs the compatibility check tool SSD Crucial returns zero compatible solutions, even if I didn't require any special drivers SATA SSD.  Looks like I'll stick with the existing HARD drive (which, to be fair, is not otherwise slow...!)

    Update my previous problem of BIOS without recognizing an SSD Crucial of M500.

    Person to HP or Crucial has been able to provide a solution, but now, I found a good solution to workaround where I installed the SSD drive in the optical drive Bay, leaving the original HARD disk.  Now the BIOS recognizes the SSD, and I did a clean install of Windows 10 on it as my C drive.  I leave my data on the HARD drive as my D drive.  Fortunately, I don't want an internal optical drive.

    So, I now have the benefits of an SSD while also having a lot of data storage space!

    Hope this can help others avoid hours of frustration...

    @MistaB Yes, that's what I thought. If it is not tested by HP, it'll be not there in the manuals I guess.

    @MichaelCanton go ahead with SSD. Planning of 128GB? Previously, he was entitled to 500 GB HARD drive? You're going to make the bootable SSD?, then a little larger size would be better:

  • Satellite R830 - 1 K 7 - replacement of SSD

    My 128 SSD G died. I can't find any SSD that fits in this computer.
    I have an another Toshiba laptop recent (protected RA-A-19 q with an SSD of 256G) which is exactly the same.
    Toshiba uses a connector owner and does not seem to sell DSS replacement for its computers?
    Not expensive other brands of replacement SSD for laptops Toshiba apparently.

    Any indication where to find SSDS for laptops Toshiba or adapters to fit a standard would be approciated.

    Thank you

    The Portégé has been fitted with a common SATA SSD 128 GB 1.8 inch drive.
    You can use them ALL! SSD drive from different manufacturers that meets the specifications of material even... you don't have to buy the exactly the same SSD.

  • HP ENVY 15-k009ne: replacement of SSD for ENVY 15-k009ne

    Hey there everyone.

    I would like to know if it is possible to replace the hard drive installed SSD (8 GB) on my Hp envy 15-k009ne. The problem is that he is very much in quality and appear to be limited to the default files of hp. I have a few questions:

    1. is it possible to replace? If not, is it possible to replace the other hard drive (1 TB, 5400 RPM)?

    2. What size (actual size and capacity, I mean) or number/model should I buy?

    Thank you.

    PS sorry if this is a recurring question. I must be sure before that I could buy another SSD drive which is quite expensive!

    The specifications of your laptop do not indicate that you have an SSD. You may have a hybrid drive that has a cache of flash 8 GB built-in player for faster access, but this isn't a separate volume that holds its own files, just a different part of the reader. HP sold never, to my knowledge, laptops with an 8 GB SSD. You probably also a HP recovery partition on your hard drive. According to the specifications, the hard drive only your machine is a 1 to 5400 RPM mechanical hard drive standard.

    See p. 66 of the manual here:

    Manual

    Unfortunately, access to the hard drive Bay is very difficult and forbidden to an end user. In other words, it will jeopardize the warranty. If you are past the warranty and want to remedy let us know. You can replace the mechanical drive with a 2.5 inch SATA SSD and your laptop will be much faster if you do. There is also a slot of the WSSD m2 on the laptop, to complicate things more, but use it to add a SSD and boot of it is even more difficult. Have any kind of SSD in laptop computer that is not the boot drive make not much sense. However, if you want to explore the option of WSSD m2 we are here to help.
