  Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG

  I would put my SSD in the PC and install win7 on it. But it does not work.

  I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  I tried to replace the SSD hard drive. Then the pc cannot start up. And I can't get into the bios or adjustment.

  Someone knows what's the problem?

  > I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  This does not work with all models of laptops.
  As far as I know that the laptop must support Slim Select Bay and the BIOS should also support this hardware option. But in your case, it doesn t.

  One possible solution is the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk.

  You said that you are not able to access the BIOS after these updates.
  Well, before you do this (a SSD drive connection) you should access the BIOS and must disable secure boot and must set the start mode MSC mode.

• The RAM and HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  I put my laptop, at level

  8.1 Windows 64-bit, Intel Core i7-4700MP @ 2.40 GHz

  Currently 12 GB of Ram - 8 GB & 4 GB Kingston DDR3

  Currently 1 TB Toshiba HDD
  http://storage.Toshiba.EU/CMS/en/HDD/computing/product_detail.jsp?ProductID=409

  I'm looking to upgrade the 4 GB of RAM to a 8 GB, I just don't know how many pins each room has. Any guidance where to find this without disassembling the machine would be very handy! -I think it's a 204pin?

  Also looking to add a second hard drive on my machine, what is the maximum size that can take this laptop? Ideally I'd like an another 1 TB HDD (same brand) than my current. Is this possible? Then the hard drives of 1 TB overprinting two system?

  EDIT: Is it possible to have the other as an SSD? Although that can't really benefits to have as a slave instead of a master drive.

  Thank you very much

  Dan

  Hello

  Manual - Page 2

  Plug

  RAM: Yes, 204pin SODIMM SDRAM desired. You can buy the memory stick to the exact configuration & preference even brand that is already installed on your computer laptop & listed in the service manual, so that it works correctly.

  Configuration of the RAM: 8 GB DDR3L 1600 MHz PC3L-12800 1.35v SODIMM SDRAM

  Run this tool to know the configuration & Details of RAM already installed.

  Page 51 details the procedure of replacement, fairly simple.

  HDD: According to the manual, it has double drive HARD support. You can put another 1 TB 2.5 inch 9.5 mm SATA HDD. You can buy additonal material of hard drive Kit (HP PRTs number: 720237-001) to install on secondary Bay for data storage.

  I would have preferred a faster 7200 RPM HARD drive with the cache higher like this , if you want more storage.

  Alternatively, you can replace the current HDD with SSD of similar form factor (2.5 inches SATA 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick) and make as boot drive by moving the drive toward SSD HARD integer before replacement & put old HDD to secondary storage Bay. SSD would defintely thrust upward performance drastically, but they are expensive - I would say worth the cost.

  Page 48-50 details the replacement procedure. Its relatively simple to do.

• Satellite 2450-101 after the 60 GB HARD drive upgrade, made only to see 30 GB

  Hello world

  I'm new to this forum. I own a 2450-101, a little old man, real it´s, but still a very nice PC. Harman-Kardon louspeakers make it very useful for music.

  I would switch the HD, so I installed a new 60 GB (the maximum taken in charge, I said) and used the recovery CD.

  Everything worked perfectly, but it seems that only 30 GB can be seen by Windows. I heard, that I might need to update the BIOS. Mine is version 1.50.

  After a long search through sites Toshiba and the Inetrnet, I can only find updates the BIOS for the new models...

  only reference I've seen is on this page: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?service=EU&FID=TRO0000000b07, but

  Yet once I don't find Bios for my model.
  Please any help would be really appreciated ;)

  Hello

  You are right. This laptop is a bit old, but very nice. It provides performance enough for someone in need of this laptop only for everyday use.

  As for you statement about 60 GB of HARD drive. Well, I m a bit confused.
  How did you check the size of the HARD drive and why you say that it recognize only 30 GB?
  How did you check that? And you are sure that you have installed and 60 GB HARD drive?

  I recommend to check the size in disk management!

  With regard to the BIOS;
  The BIOS for this laptop is on the Toshiba driver page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  There, you have to search in archive Archive Satellite Satellite 24xx Satellite 2450-101.
  As far as I know the BIOS 1.50 is available on the page!

• External SSD hard drive not detected by Airport Extreme/Time Capsule

  Hello everyone, I have the following problem:

  Framework

  -J' bought a 1 TB Samsung SSD 840 EVO internal media.

  -He is locked in a case of badges and used as an external hard drive

  -J' have an Airport Extreme (5th generation)

  -J' have a Time Capsule (4th Gen)

  -My MBP detects the SSD external hard drive when it is connected to the USB port and works fine

  Problem

  -I connect the external SSD hard drive to the USB port on both TCapsule and AExtreme, but the HD is not detected directly (USD and with powered hub of USD)

  -HD was formatted as OS x journaled Extended

  -J' tried smb and cifs via 'connect to server', but does not work.

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Juan

  Unfortuantely, Apple did not update the firmware on the USB key (it is still 2.0) port on their routers for a number of years.  As a result, new USB 3.0 drives may or may not work with airports.

  Yes, we know that USB 3.0 is supposed to be backward compatible with USB 2.0 in theory, but theory does not always work in practice.

  If your drive is formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled)... also called HFS +... .and you have tried the drive with and without a USB hub powered and the reader will not be displayed with you check using the AirPort Utility disks tab... then you have one of a number of readers who do not work with routers from the airport.

  I just checked a new LaCie USB 3.0 drive I have here. It works perfectly with a Mac, but it appears not at all when I connect it to the USB port or a powered new AirPort Extreme or new Time Capsule directly, or by using a USB hub.

• Is it possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  I wonder if it is possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  If 'yes', I guess I have to go for a SATA SSD if there is. But I have to worry about other specs?

  If 'Yes'... what could be.

  I googled my question but no answers... so I ty Wizzards :-) Forum

  @Lord_Nikon

  In fact, this is not true. As long as he uses a large SSD enough it will be able to use the recovery media. I suggest using a SSD of 256 or 512 GB if budgeted for the upgrade...

  He doesn't have to make a Windows 7 installation USB drive and use the activation key license on the certificate of authenticity from the PC Windows to perform a cleanup to install.

  One of them should be on your PC. The Prodct key is what is needed for installation and activation online.

  

• Upgrade to Windows 10 new disk when the Windows 7 hard drive does not

  I have a desktop HP with Windows 7 Pro and since last week, it will fail to start.   It seems that it is approaching, but everything does not end.    I would just buy a new SSD and upgrade to Windows 10.      I don't have Windows 7 installation floppies, but the license key is on the case of the office.      What are my options?   Hopefully I won't need to buy Windows because my hard drive has failed.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience and appreciate your interest for Windows 10.

  The license key of the operating system is integrated into the motherboard. To enable Windows 10 without facing any errors, you must activate the previous version of Windows with a valid license key, and then proceed to the upgrade.

  If you replace the SSD HARD drive, you must activate the previous Windows, i.e. Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 version, if it is a true copy as well as the activation key and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  Since you do not have an installation disc, I suggest to create one by downloading the ISO image of Windows 7 on a CD or USB key and check if you are able to download the operating system.

  https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/home

  After downloading and installing Windows 7, upgrade to Windows media authoring tool10.

  Note: See the section on the use of the media creation tool from the link above for more information.

  Refer to the link below on How to download official Windows 10 ISO files:

• Tecra R10 - hard drive upgrade for SSD

  Can we say if it is possible to change the hard drive for an SSD?
  It would be perfect!

  Why is it not possible? As far as I know Toshiba proposes some models of the Portege with SSD and SATA drives.
  For the time being SSDS are quite expensive and I don't think the best solution.
  What is the reason for the exchange of HARD drive?
  I still have no experience with SSDS, but I've read several articles ve noticed that Intel X25M should be good. According to the tests that has this HARD drive, comparing to other manufacturers, data transfer rate but it is quite expensive.

  Anyway, when you replace the HARD drive please let us know how it works, and describe your experience with it. It can be very useful for other members of the forum.

  Good luck!

• HP ENVY 17-j101ex - replace the SSD HARD drive

  Hello

  I have HP ENVY 17-j101ex, with the standard configuration: 2 x 1 TB drive HARD 5400 RPM SATA. I want to buy 1 SSD drive and replace the first (boot) hard disk drive. I don't know if it works or not.

  I want to buy a SSD Samsung 840 EVO 250 GB SATA III (MZ-7TE250BW), 2.5 ", dimensions: 100 x 69 x 7 mm

  I have to: 1 x 1 TB HARD drive (as a secondary drive) + 1 x 250 GB SSD SATA3 (as your startup with system disk)

  Is this ok?

  I found some info, that:

  Supports a 6.35 cm (2.5 in) 300 GB or 160 GB SSD (SSD) drive in 7, 0 - mm (. 28 - in.) thick

  Supports 6.35 cm (2.5 in) hard disks to 12.7 mm (. 50-in) and a height of 9.5 mm (. 37 - in)

  Is it not this Samsung SSD too big?

  I also found information on envy 17 series, which:

  Supports the following single hard drive/solid-state drive combination configurations:
  ● 1-TB, 5400-rpm, 12.7-mm hard drive × 1 + 300-GB solid-state drive
  

  and also:

  NOTE: Supports RAID-0 as default for all dual hard drive/solid-state drive combination configurations.
  

  So, first of all should I disable RAID-0?

  Thank you for your help and sorry for my English

  In fact, I have the same model laptop PC series. You will have no problem replacing the mechanical main hard drive with an SSD. The Evo to Samsung 250 Gig is a very good choice. I suggest you get cloning software, put the SSD in the second slot, start from cloning software and copy (clone) the startup disk for the SSD. You'll slim down the contenst of the diskette of starting less than 250 concerts to achieve, but you can store files off to the second disk of 1 TB in the process. There are other ways to do this post if you have any questions.

  Here is a video showing how to install the hard drive.

  https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=wx3dMGXrGCc

  RAID-0 is supported, but you wouldn't want as a second hard drive with an SSD. If your readers are appearing as volumes of letters separated in 'the PC' or 'Computer' then RAID-0 does not exist and you shouldn't have to do any disorder in the BIOS.

• Can I install SSD hard drive in the version of Windows XP Media Center 2002.

  Original title: ssd hard drives

  I have a Sony desktop running Windows XP Media Center version 2002. I am thinging about buying an SSD hard drive. I was wondering if it will work

  Hi Mike,

  Thank you for the question to Microsoft Community. I'll give my best to help you.

  From your problem description, I understand you want to find out if the SSD is supported in the version of Windows XP Media Center 2002.

  What is the model number of the computer?

  Windows Media center supports the SSDS. However, when buying, check with the manufacturer if the hard drive is compatible with Windows Media Center operating system in 2002.

• Can I replace the SSD HARD drive in my sve15123cv

  Hello

  I use sve15123cv, I want to replace the SSD HARD drive. Is this possible?

  Which SSD is good?

  Hi zunnun,.

  Thank you for visiting the Sony community!

  It is possible, but we cannot guarantee that it will work without any problem. You need to consider certain things such as the specification of the HARD drive, thickness or dimension of the SSD that you plan to install first. Your Vaio SVE15123CV is a non American model. Unfortunately, we do not have full details and specifications of your machine. However, you can coordinate with the Sony support based on your location or where you bought the device.

  For further assistance about your concern, please contact the representative offices of offices/Sony Sony nearest your place of residence in the Asia-Pacific region http://www.sony-asia.com/countryselector.html?hpid=countryselector:AsiaPacific. Due to the proximity, they are in a better position to respond to your questions or concerns.

• iMac mid-2010 for one SSD HARD drive replacement

  Hello

  After reflection, (mainly in the meantime my principalement en attendant mon iMac iMac starts!), I decided to replace the HDD with a SSD. After having done some research and I watch YouTube videos, I'm not sure if I have bought the right tools for the job. Could someone please help me and let me know if I'm not on the right track here.

  The iMac in question is a model 27 "2010.

  Here's what I have on order:

  • Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD
  • OWC online Thermal Sensor HDD upgrade 2009-2010 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017OEQKV2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie= UTF8 & PSC = 1
  • Kingston Technology 2.5 to 3.5 inches support and live for SSD - UTF8 & PSC = 1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00DGL2X7I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=
  • 2 x cable high quality Original SATA 6 GB/s 3 - Gigabyte https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BBYOD3E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie= UTF8 & PSC = 1

  I also ordered suction cups and relevant screwdrivers.

  I intend to completely remove the current HD and its replacement by the new SSD. Am I right assuming that I will just remove current thermal sensor cable and replace it with the one OWC? I'm not 100% on this one.

  Cheers in advance

  Ian

  Yes, you just remove the thermal sensor and place the OWC in line sensor (the sticker pad can be placed on the support of 2, 5-2, 5 (as the SSD will not have a lot of heat).  The longer a cable must be re-attached the logic board.

  The only suggestion I have would be - it probably need not SATA cables for this-> upgrade SSD HARD drive, thermal line sensor is long enough - in fact, too long that I had to press them to be shaped in the iMac.  Unless you plan to add other SSD in the system, since the iMac 2010 with SATA 2 (3 GB/s speed).

  Good luck

• Satellite L70-A-139 - guaranteed zero when removing the cover for the RAM and HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite L70-A-139 youcef.
  And at the back of the laptop, there is a cover that is fixed with a screw.

  Wil I void the warranty when I unscrew and take a look?
  I want to upgrade my HDD to SSD.
  The motherboard supports Sata III: D.

  Thank you!

  No, the mandate must still be valid.
  There is a removable cover at the bottom of the unit as shown here:

  Then you should be able to upgrade the RAM and HARD drive.
  I think this info should be mentioned in the user manual too.
