• Want to 13d061sa: the HP Envy 13d061sa SSD upgrade

  I have a HP Envy 13d061sa, laptop 13.3 inch with 256 GB SSD drive. I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade to 1 TB drive. Also is it extensible owner?

  Thank you

  It is not a replaceable part by the user, so no, not owner replaceable, unless the owner didn't mind accepting complete responsibility for the damage done to the laptop.

  Ensure that you buy the right type of SSD for your notebook. I would say a 512 GB is probably a bertter option.

  A video at the following library shows how to replace the SSD.

• The CQ60 430SA with SSD upgrade

  Hello

  After much trawling the internet and various research I hope someone can help me to confirm if I can finish the next upgrade.

  I have a CQ60-430SA Windows 7 Professional 64 bit stock, with 4 GB of RAM, AMD Turion x 2 64-bit processor (VERY hot) and in recent months have gone through various scans of the system in order to limit start them all programs, Windows updates and various other background programs that made the laptop almost completely insensitive.

  He is now back some of its speed of origin but I always find it very laggy and hesitate to open programs, etc..  After reading on the SSD and performance increases that they can bring can tell me if I can replace the Toshiba MK2555GSX ATA HDD currently installed with an evo of 840 Samsung 256 Gb SSD?  I have also reviewed the upgrade of processor Turion Ultra ZM-82, I know to be compatible from the manual of maintenance (below), but are not convinced that he will give me a huge increase in performance (any thoughts?)

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

  If I can replace the hard drive with an SSD I also remove the laptop and replace the thermal paste on the processor (already cleaned the fan).  The laptop also needs a battery and external battery to replace.

  Thank you very much in advance for any advice given.

• HP ENVY 15 J048tx: The j048tx of the Hp Envy 15-SSD upgrade.

  I want to replace my drive ssd.
  So my questions are-
  1. how to know the compatibility that is to say, size SSDS based on my lappy, type of accommodation?
  2. what ssd you prefer for this laptop?
  3. other information that I should know before replacing?

  Hello
  
  Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03733656
  
  Any good brand of 2.5-inch SSD SATA 7mm thick will be good. SATA3 is reverse compatible with SATA2, so need to bother in this regard. Your laptop has HM87 Intel chipset board, so probably there SATA2 or 3.
  
  SAMSUNG SSD of 850 Evo is very good. It is SATA3.
  
  Cloning disk SSD before replacement using the manufacturers Web site migration tools is a good option. I used the Samsung migration tool for my laptop Pavilion 15.
  
  Prior to migration, perform a thorough cleaning of the drive:

• 2011 21 inch iMac won't start after the SSD upgrade

  Recently, I upgraded my hard drive for an SSD via a computer repair business in my neighborhood, I also upgraded the ram, but I don't think it's in the case. On a two weeks after the upgrade, my computer don't turn on more. I took it to the genius bar and they told me that the DSS had "failed." So of course, I took my computer to the computer repair company and they ran some tests, discovered that the hard disk does not (according to them, he only read this way because the apple store has run the test for a normal hard drive and not an SSD). I'm not super computer savvy, so I took their word for it.

  Now, however, it has been nearly a month and my computer refuses to activate once again. Previously, it has worked well, the fans were running at full blast - what I knew would be a problem (although the repairman told me that they 'fixed' this issue too). So the first time, I downloaded a program called SSD fan control and set the fans to run in silent mode. This second time around, I realized that it was probably a bad idea because it could lead to overheating, so I put manually the fan speed so that we could hear still run, but just not as loud.

  I tried the reset SMC, but no result. Right now, I unplugged everything including disconnect it from the power strip.

  Any other experience of power with a new SSD failure? Is there anything else I could try at home before contacting the computer again repair business? I would not be able to reach at least until tomorrow, and I'm really curious to know how they managed to get my computer back on the first time.

  Also, I've been out of my warranty period for about a year, so that's why I thought that I was not risking too much by exchanging the original for one SSD drive.

  First of all, the original in Middle 2011 iMac hard drive had a temperature sensor integrated in the drive.  More new or replacement of those who do not.

  Other World Computing sells an Apple certified temperature sensor that plugs into the SATA cable.

  https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/OWC/DIDIMACHDD11/

  I just put a 2 GB Western Digital Black in mine, with the sensor.

  I suggest all first, reinstall the OEM disc and see if it boots.

  Put the SSD in an external enclosure and see if it runs...

• Qosmio G30-102 not start after the SSD upgrade

  I have 2 x 840 Pro 256 GB SSD to install in my machine which usually runs two drives independently.

  I used the software to Clone of Samsun to clone my C drive which has XP on it.

  The cloning was successful.

  On the installation of the new SSD, it will be now does not start and keeps cycling to the F12 boot screen.

  I tried all the options without result.
  Any ideas?

  Hello

  I had a similar experience with an upgrade of the SSD.
  I used exactly the same software and has been able to clone partitions of HARD drive to SSD drive and my cell phone did not start the system from the SSD system partition.

  I figured out that the C: partition on the SSD was not marked as active.
  How I solved this?

  Well, I put the SSD in the 2.5 external USB enclosure. Then I booted the laptop using the old HDD. I connected the external SSD drive to the USB port.
  Then I went to Windows disk management and could activate the C partition on the SSD drive.
  Then I replaced the HARD drive with SSD and could boot. :)

• ZBook 15u G2: is it possible to upgrade the G2 Zbook 15u from the 500 GB Samsung SSD 850 evo 500 GB SATA HARD disk?

  Turns out that the hard drive that I got this laptop when I bought it is not really meet my needs, and I'm looking to upgrade. I looked around, and the EVO of 850 SSD Samsung 500 GB seems a good choice for what I'm looking for.

  I just wanted to check if my cell phone is compatible with this ssd. My initial assumption is 'yes' but before I drop money I wanted to confirm this. For reference, I went to the start with the 500 GB SATA hard drive, and I'm looking to upgrade the 500 GB Samsung ssd 850 evo.

  I can provide the SN of my laptop for reference, if needed.

  Hello

  The simple answer is Yes you can. You can use a standard SSD 2.5 "to replace the current HARD drive. And the Samsung is a good choice.

  Kind regards.

• The old hard drive SATA SSD upgrade

  I don't want to hijack the thread, but I have another question which may be useful for other people doing the same type of recovery.

  I ordered the recovery CD for my laptop HP 2000 only today.

  To improve performance, I also think to replace the installed at factory 320 hard drive (HDD) with a 240GB solid state drive (SSD).

  QUESTION: Should the OS recovery CD/DVD drive must be the same size - 320? Of course, WIndows will adapt very well to a 240 GB drive. Is the recovery process re-create the recovery partition and part of the restoration process?

  Thanks for your time and advice.

  It is advisable not to go smaller on the replacement drive. SSD are pretty inexpensive for 500G at the moment. You don't want to go smaller. It doesn't have to be the same size, but it must always be greater anything smaller. Resumption of the factory will create AS since the configuration partition and recovery of factory if you use the factory recovery media.

• Need help with the SSD upgrade

  Dear Sir
  Sorry for my bad English. I use Dell Latitude E6530, I want to move to the SSD. But my concert is: How can I copy / clone the original to new SSD HHD RECOVERY PARTITION so that I can use it as a 'factory reset' on the new SSD?

  Thank you very much!

  

  The trip key is F12, F8 not, but yes - once you have the recovery media, you can restore the system to the condition of the plant if necessary.

• I have to remove mSata SSD on Inspiron 15R - SE (7520) during the SSD upgrade?

  I noticed that my laptop has a job 32 GB SSD mSata as cache for 1 TB HARD drive. However I intend to abandon this 1 TB HARD drive in DVD - Rom tray and slap in a SSD 128 GB... now the problem returns to the mSata SSD.

  the mSata ssd presents itself as 'LITEONIT LMT-32', its also show as SATA_array_0001 under the technology Intel Rapid Storage, with 8 GB data and 22 gb Cache volume.

  base on this site, to remove this mSata SSD seems to be a pain in the ass who require a full strip down.

  

  now I'm just amazing, what happens IF I let this mSata SSD in there, he will try to act as a cache for my SSD which is already much faster than it or the system is going to be smart enough to put my HARD drive cache. I will win ANY performance gain / lost in leaving the mSata SSD in? If not, is it possible to disable it?

  Hello again,

  If the installation is very easy. I made sure that the 32 GB msata, was disabled before I installed the new 240 GB SSD.

  After you disable acceleration - MAKE sure THAT YOU RESET to DISP - really important... Make sure the msata drive is empty, no partition.

  I removed the 1 TB drive, after I deleted the partition do not reformat... that I placed in a basket and I replaced the BD player...

  Let Intel rapid storage enabled in the Bios

  I installed the SSD and put the Dell OEM Windows 7 USB in and then I went... Because the other 2 drives had no any partition, left of Windows system reserves on the SSD> Windows will throw the reserve system on any other installed drive which has partitions, installing (reason msata and 1 TB of disk are not formatted)

  Once Windows 7 has been made and installed, I have download driver Intel Rapid Storage from Dell... and went in the administrative options... I formatted the 1 TB drive and initialized only msata 'no format.

  Returned to Intel Rapid Storage, and it was there, activate the acceleration. So I used only 22 GB for acceleration, on the storage of 1 TB drive 'former reader'... leaving me flying over 8 GB... Re-entered administrative options... and I formatted (NTFS) 8gbs... I used the 8 GB for my swap file, freeing up the 8 gb of OS "ssd s. - great idea, using a separate drive for the paging file.

  I'm sure that you can also use the 8 GB for your quick start too, but I do not use the quick start...

  Now, I have a 240 gb C500 and a Cached 1 TB 5400 RPM disk storage... I never really use the BD player... But I kept it just wrap... Reading and writing is great on this thing and if I decided to load my 425 GB of steam games, now I can load them on my storage drive, and it will always be super fast!

  Thanks for reading and I hope you find this useful!

• Question of cloning for SSD upgrade on 12 Macbook Pro

  Previously, I did an upgrade to SSD on my Macbook Air to 2012 according to the instructions of JetDrive transcend. Basically connection via USB 3 and using Mac OS X to clear (and format) disc utilities new SSD, then restore again SSD and then remove the original 128 GB SSD and insert the new 480 GB SSD.  For about a month and so far without problem.

  Now I'm trying to 2012 Macbook upgrade my Pro partner (on 10.11.6).  I got a Crucial SSD MX300 to replace his HARD drive.  Crucial comes with (or recommend) Acronis software.  And a lot of the messages of the forum recommend Carbon Copy Clone.

  My question is if I can use the same method for the cloning of the HD as my Macbook Air (just restore disk of Mac OS X utilities)?  This time, I'm upgrading HARD drive and I don't know if something is different.  At the same time, if I got lucky the first time, I don't not ruin Macbook Pro my spouse this time.

  Thank you.

  Yes, you can use disk utility to clone your MBP wives, but unlike CCC, it will not clone the recovery and Partition.

• MacBook pro 13 inch 2012 pcie ssd upgrade

  Is my mid-2012 13 "MacBook Pro compatible with PCIe SSD upgrade? I want to remove the internal optical disk and edit it in the PCIe SSD, so that I have 2 internal storage. Going to do?

  Your mention of an optical drive tells me you have a MBP non-retine.  PCI and PCIe SSDS are NOT compatible with your MBP.  You can install a card standard 2.5 "SSD in your MBP and still experience a significant increase in performance.  I suggest OWC SSD and Crucial.

  Ciao.

• Configuration of the BIOS XW8600 for SSD and HDD

  Until recently, my xw8600 has been configured with the emulation of SATA under storage on the separate IDE controller Options.  250 GB hard drives connected to the SATA 1 and SATA ports 0 and readers of DVD RW Drive connected to 2 SATA and SATA 3 ports.

  I wanted to install a GTX240 Neutron Corsair SSD, but discovered when I changed the SATA RAID + DCIS emulation (to activate all 5 ports of SATA controller and optimize the performance of the SSD), the system could not find the boot drive.  I checked the startup command settings and found the slot drive HARD listed title module of memory into the attached USB printer HP Officejet 7500 a first and could not be changed.

  I decided to go back to SATA IDE emulation separate, remove the optical drive on SATA 2 port and attach the SSD it.  This facility is expected to start successfully; but after installing windows 7 x 64 on the SSD (Windows XP, x 64, still on the HARD drive), I found Windows 7 has been very very slow.

  Can anyone offer any suggestions or comments on how I can improve this situation?

  Thanks for any help, you can suggest.

  What is an installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit of a retail installation DVD purchase, or something HP?  If I remember well Vista 64 was the latest HP OS with sold.  In this case you won't have to deal with a set of HP restore disks.  I would never do an "upgrade" of a prior installation of OS in W7.  I only do not clean install W7 on a freshly long-type reformatted hard drive or an SSD.  I buy my "system builder" OEM license W7Pro 64 - bit DVD/COA from newegg.com (you can find that many sources and approximately 140.00 each).

  Plan to do a clean install on this SSD from scratch and when you format before that settle does long formatting version, while it is booted from the W7 DVD.  That will take some time.  Or, if you have a functioning before the OS install on a hard drive, you can restore the xw8600 you can connect the SSD in the second or third SATA port and reformat (long version) management of records like this.

  The boot drive or SSD, Spinner, must always be connected to the primary SATA port, which in these workstations, is usually blue plastic, while the rest are a dark black.

  Make sure that your BIOS is later... There was a version for this and the xw6600 with a few months ago.  It is an important.

  Put the SSD in your favorite mount, hang it in the main SATA port, prepare the W7 DVD in the DVD drive (which should be attached to the second port SATA or IDE cable if it's a DVD ATA drive). Throwing xw8600, go straight into the BIOS and go to which you can change the SATA emulation.  Change that on "RAID + AHCI.  Save on the way out of the BIOS, and the workstation will now reboot usually requiring formal approval of the change F1.

  Demarrer start on the DVD, select clean install and things will be fine.  I usually set my boot order to start hard drive/SSD first and second optical drive.  Then, when I load an OS I just use the F9 key during the early start to switch to the DVD player for this single event.

  It's the key information: If you have correctly set to "RAID + AHCI" SATA emulation for the W7 installation process, then the appropriate drivers will not be loaded from the DVD on the startup disk, and you won't receive anywhere near your expected speed.  I helped a friend who had done exactly what you did, and when we corrected things literally double SSD performance scores.  I recommend that the reformatting/clean reinstall from zero here, because you want to really perfect the basics and the way he was treated initially can leave you with a few important questions.

  After you have things working with the SSD and the DVD player you can add in your other material sequentially.  I would like to make a reboot between each addition, just be very careful.  Some old HP DVD drives have a problem with W764 loading during the emulation of the SATA BIOS is set correctly and there is a solution for this, but you don't want from now this info.

  All the advice I have written in this forum about the xw6400 installs apply to the xw6600 and xw8600, including information on the upgrades of the processor.

• Satellite M50D-A-10Z - SSD upgrade

  I want to replace the HDD with SSD.
  How do I remove the Panel back?

  Thank you

  This forum many people have asked the same question. Replacing the HARD drive on this model is not supported, and removal of the Panel should not be done by the owner of the laptop. This will void the warranty.
  HARD drive upgrade or Exchange is possible, but it must be done by authorized personnel only.
  My advice to you is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They can do for you.

  Be sure to create a recovery media (USB). After Exchange of HARD drive, you can use this media to install the original recovery image.
