SSD SATA 3 in Inspiron 1564

Hello

I decided to replace the factory WD 500 GB ATA disk with an OCZ Agility 3 SATA 3 240 GB SSD in my Inspiron 1564 laptop.

I know, the laptop does not support SATA 3, so I expect to lower speed performance but how much lower?

I mean, going to e/s all be faster or it's a total waste of money?

FYI, I am Windows 7 64 bit and I work with Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008, most of the time (which means a lot of IO activity).

Please, any response is appreciated the most.

Hi dimpant,

Inspiron 1564 supports SATA 2 drives and is the maximum speed of 2 SATA 3 Gbit/s. The SSD performance would be better than the hard drive.

    SATA 6 G disks work fine with SATA 3 G controllers - of course, not at full speed.

  • Upgrade of the disk (DELL Inspiron 1564)

    I have been using Dell Inspiron 1564 (core i5 & 2.27 GHz, RAM: 2 GB) for the past two years. It's HARD is 320 GB disk which doesn't seem to be enough for me. So, I decided to increase the 1 TB HARD drive.

    1. is it possible to increase the capacity with the existing configuration of laptop? Or what is the maximum limit that can be added with my laptop?

    2. it degrade performance?

    3. should I need to increase the RAM as well? If so, what might be a suitable configuration.

    4. I learned that the HARD drive has 2 slots. So can I add additional HDD with the existing in another location?

    It would really help if you will guide me so that I can buy the right configuration. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Saadi,

    You can replace your existing hard drive by any laptop (2.5 ") SATA hard drive. Your system does not support two hard drives, so the only option is replacement. This will not affect performance, nor do you need to add more RAM.

    It can be larger than 32 GB, but it is not the boot drive and its only real function is as a cache of acceleration for the main mechanical hard drive, for which really impossible to use something bigger.

  • Tecra R850 - support SSD SATA 6.0 GB III

    Hello.

    I bought R850 with SSD.
    The bad news is that SSD 256 GB installed is limited to SATA II with up to 300/Mo transfer. I read that Sandy Bridge supports SATA III, which covers 600/Mo.

    Is someone installed successfully the best able with SATA3 SSD drive?

    I tried Sisoft Sandra and it reported that the SSD SATA is II, the same for the motherboard. The HwINFO reported that this chipset is compatible with SATA 3. Everest shows that SSD SATA 2 data.

    It's the bios locked for higher transfers? I got 180 MB/s read, 150 MB/write - what is 3 x worse than normal SATA 3 SSD 256 GB hard disks.

    Can someone help me and tell - if it's the bios R850? or only the old SSD Toshiba firmware? If I buy the best SSD with SATA3 - it will fully support higher speed?

    Best regards

    Hello

    I don't know Mr. what portable R850-xxx you but as far as I know, this series is equipped with one for the (Sandy Bridge) Intel i3/i5/i7 CPU.
    The phone also supports either Intel Cougar Point QM67 (model TN) or HM65 (model no - AMT). The two supports SATA II (3 Gb/s) and SATA III (6 Gb/s)

    But for example, if the host interface is 300 MB/s, you get experienced data reading: Max 250 MB/s and write data to sustain: Max 160 MB/s

    I recently ordered this ssd sata m2 of amazon, but I'm not sure its compatible with my system - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TGIW1XG?psc=1 & redirect = true & ref_ = oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00.

    Its a Samsung 850 500 GB M.2 3.5 inch SSD Form Factor 80nm.  Can I use in a configuration to double for my laptop with the current 5400 RPM 1 TB HARD drive already in the system?  Or do I have to use one or the other?  Or can I select a smaller SSD storage for a double configuration?  I have to talk to a technician and he said my system does not support a 128 GB ssd and it did not indicate if it is a double or a single disk configuration.  In my view, it is difficult to imaging a new desire to 2015 with an i7 Quad Core skylake 6700HQ processor supports only a meagre 128 GB SSD.  Any ideas on what my system can support?

    I can verify that it works very well. I had HP technology insist that I could use only one hard disk and a maximum capacity of 128 GB. The technicians don't know squat. I use now a configuration double with the operating system and my programs on my 850 m2 sata evo III 500 GB SSD and my data (videos, music and photos) files on the preinstalled 5400 RPM 1 TB HARD drive.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 - 4083cl: support SSD SATA III?

    Hello

    I think about adding a 2nd. hard drive in my HP Pavilion dv7 - 4083cl.

    The current drive of 500 GB at 7200 RPM will be the 2nd. drive and a new SSD will be 1. drive (System and boot).

    I was looking for this information, but I couldn't find the answer. My doubts are:

    1. the dv7 - 4083 cl does support SATA III? If I install a SATA III disc, will it work to its full potential, or as a SATA II drive? In other words, can I buy a SSD SATA II drive cheaper because I wouldn't have the performance of a most recent hard drive SSD SATA III?

    2. a 256 GB SSD support this machine? Or is it just up to 160 GB?

    Thank you!

    Hello:

    You know the chipset specifications to determine what version of your laptop SATA drive will manage transfer speeds to.

    Your laptop computer has a chipset Mobile Intel series 5 (HM55) who can run that hard disks to the SATA II transfer speed.

    Not until you get to new Intel 6 Series chipsets and can they run SATA III drives to SATA III speed.

    Here is the link to the plug on the chipset of your notebook.  Note the SATA 3.0 GB/S specifications.

    http://www.Intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/mainstream-chipsets/mobile-chipset-HM55.html

    Since your laptop comes standard with a 500 GB HARD drive, I imagine a 250 GB SSD should work fine.

    However, the recovery disks may not work on a smaller hard drive.

    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)

  • Problems with Dell Factory Image Restore - Dell Inspiron 1564 - Windows 7 Home Premium

    Hello

    My laptop (Dell Inspiron 1564 - Windows 7 Home Premium) slowed down a few days ago and I decided to restore the system to Dell Factory Image. The process started but stopped at most of halfway and gave the following message: "unable to apply the Image. I rebooted the system, but it would now not start, not even in safe mode! Perhaps, during the process of restoring a few essential Windows files have been erased.

    I want to restore the Image of Dell and can not reinstall Windows because I lost the product key of my Windows 7 original installation DVD provided by Dell at the time of the purchase of the laptop. Your help / advice is solicited and would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    P.S. The system recovery Partition is intact and has factory.wim and other related directories / files intact.

    If you use the Windows 7 Home Premium DVD Dell reinstallation it will automatically apply the Dell OEM SLP activation. In short, a product key is entered from the DVD and active if and only if the BIOS is validated by Dell to perform Windows 7. Therefore, you do not have the key 25-digit number on the certificate of authenticity. If you want to know the code then look under the battery.

  • Problem Inspiron 1564 and 5.1 sound

    Hi Dell Community,

    I found that my Inspiron 1564 Map 5.1 sound (pls correct me if m wrong) but is 2.1 mm (for headset only)

    How can I connect the laptop with System 5.1 speakers?

    I hope you have a solution. Thank you

    It's interesting. I checked in my device manager and all the devices I have to the title of her also said video game controller lower Logo Version 5.1. My integrated audio controller is IDT, not Realtek, but it is only 2 channels like yours, so I don't think that "5.1" means something of practical use. I googled "Lower Logo Version" but couldn't find what it means. It doesn't really matter because you cannot connect your system 5.1 speakers to your laptop due to not having the ports for it.
