  • HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive replacement

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC, and I had problems with hard disk of the guarantee period. for example I buy in 2010 and had a hard drive replaced in 2011 and 2012. Next time, he failed in 2013 (almost 11 months apart on average).

    The last time it failed, the warranty has expired so I thought to give it a try as employment through fixing/amortization of bad sector seagate software, Toshiba... that came out of Smart Drive Error.

    I use the HARD drive for some time now, but want to be ready for the next round and I don't know that he's going to be gone for good next time.

    Current HARD disk is 640 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive (replaced in 2012). HP 621046-001 manufacturer.

    When replacing, can I use ANY hard drive 640 GB? Can I use a hard drive that is higher than 640 GB? Different RPM?

    Any suggestions on hard drive?

    The recovery discs I had received with the replacement drive did not work properly. I had to use the first game I had created just after I bought the laptop.

    Thank you.

    I think that 160GB 2.5 "SATA III SSD is good for the system.

  • I had my hard drive replaced on my Toshiba lap top and my windows 7 is no longer considered as authentic code has rubbed off the sticker on the base of my lap top. Where can I find it?

    I had my hard drive replaced on my Toshiba lap top and my windows 7 is no longer considered as authentic code has rubbed off the sticker on the base of my lap top. Where can I find it?

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

  • My Mac has crashed. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Suite?

    I bought my Macbook Pro 17 (it's a Mid-2009, running Cougar 10.8.4) used on eBay, and it came with Adobe Master Suite CS5. I pursued a degree in graphic design, and the computer had everything that I needed to start. Now that I'm out of College, I rely heavily on InDesign and Photoshop to get the job done. However, after five years of loyal service without problem, my Mac has crashed and I have never used time Machine. I might have to reinstall Mountain Lion or replace the hard drive. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Collection of applications? I can save them somehow?

    Any reply and help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your time.

  • HP ENVY 15-j030eb - SSD HARD drive replacement

    Hello

    Really hard to find all the information on the net regarding this laptop (no reviews, no tweaks etc.). Again I would buy the desire because of his good record. However only if the following can be done:

    Replace the HARD drive internal 1 TB per a DDI, preferably a Samsung 840 EVO Series 250 Gb.

    If so, can you just plug in, or do you need to support etc. Anyone who has done this before?

    Thank you

    Hello SebastiaanB,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that you are looking to put a 256 GB SSD in the HP ENVY 15-j030eb. I'd be happy to help you with this. I'm you provide a link to the HP Support document: PC portable HP ENVY 15 and HP ENVY TouchSmart 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. If you look on page 5 you will see that the HP ENVY 15 laptop only supports an SSD 24 GB mSATA, your wanting to install the 256 GB it would not work. What you would end up with, it's either the BIOS would not see the drive at all or it would be very slow and you would lose any benefits that you would get to use an SSD.

    To answer your second question in the guide even if you go to page 44, you will see instructions on how to install an SSD in your laptop.

    I hope that I have answered your questions to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting about these issues on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Questions about X 240 hard drive replacement

    I read through the related content on the hard drive for this machine swaps, but I wanted to clarify a few things before going forward.

    Background:

    • Lenovo X 240 w / 500 GB HDD and SSD 16 GB (both came standard), Windows 7
    • HARD drive is faulty (confirmed)
    • I've built / repaired my PC in the past and have a moderate comfort level 'dig deeper' a machine

    Issues related to the:

    1. I will replace with a 500GB HARD drive (or more) SSD. I understand a type reader 2.5 "SATA III will work, but I've seen classified not only 7 mm compatible heights but 9 mm heights will work as well - is this true?
    2. Given the essential motivation will be a SSD, I think that disk cache 16 GB SSD will be useless? Is there a wrong to her leaving (without performance degradation)? If it is best to remove it, I understand it is not easy to access (is there a decent tutorial on how to do it)?
    3. I have a backup image on an external drive (made with standard tools of Win 7), which will be the best way to get this door to the new SSD? I've got a KingWin EZ-Connect and another office that could be exploited which simplifies the process
    4. To confirm, I read a topic on the copy of a HARD drive for an SSD associated spacing address 4K, but don't think that this is the case, it was a Win 7 OS on the original HARD drive?

    Thanks for the help

    Hello and welcome, drandersoninc

    1. Yes, x 240 supports SATA III drives, 7 mm or 9.5 mm height

    2. no need to have a cache drive if the primary drive is the SSD. Remove after uninstalling the software cache.

    Useful items to find the drive inside the laptop and remove it:

    Disk cache is placed under the internal battery, on the cover of chip card reader.
    Open the 3rd link above, take a course, go to the part of the technical review, expand it, select "ThinkPad x 240 m2 - 3rd slot. You will see drive cache.

    3 use the cloning software, clone the content of all of the reader (not a partitions). You need just a USB SATA box.

    4. There is no problem of k 4 with modern and win7 discs.

  • Failure hard drive replaced by larger windows disk hard recovery 7 starter will not work

    The Emachines Nav51 of Netbook had a hard drive fail completely. WD 160 GB instead of replacing the drive with the same size of the extra couple of dollars so I installed a 320 GB WD drive. Had a set of recovery disks shipped from Emachines, but due to the size of the disc it does not recognize the correct system.
    But then installed on setup Windows installs the services that it stops and an error box goes up requiring you to restart the installation from scratch. But then runs into an endless loop does the same thing over and over again.
    How to get windows 7 edition starter on this system.

    Hi Dave,.

    Thanks for the updates.

    I wish to inform you that there is a difference between the installation disc and disc upgrade.

    However, there is a solution that will allow you to install Windows 7 on the computer.

    Step 1: during the installation, when you get to the window where you enter the product key, uncheck the option that requires the product at the bottom of the window key. You can use the same disc of Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade.

    This will install Windows 7 without product key, you must activate it later.

    Step 2: Activate the phone.

    Check out the following link and follow the instructions in the section: Activate by using the telephone.
