The upgrade of the SSD on my laptop from Alienware 17

Hello. I just got my new laptop Alienware 17 game and so far, I am VERY impressed with its performance. Frame rates are amazing in everything I tried, and it remains very cool compared to my laptop XPS15. It has a 'boot' of 256 GB drive and a dish of 5 400 rpm 1 TB disk for storing data.

I want to improve the SSD 256 GB for a 1 TB SSD. I bought the 1 TB SSD and cloned the 256 GB for it. I opened the laptop according to the manual and looked at the "primary" hard disk, expected to be the 256 GB SSD but rather what I found in this slot machine is the data of 5 400 rpm 1 TB drive. Research in the 'secondary' Bay, I see that it is empty. I can't put anything I want on the 256 GB SSD, that's why I bought the 1 TB SSD. Where the 256 GB SSD, and how will install the SSD 1 TB as primary drive (boot)?

I also intend to upgrade the flat disc at 1 to 7 200 RPM SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive) after the SSD upgrade. I need first of all put the SSD well. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks for listening, and I'll be happily play until I can find an answer.

Best,

Marc

Here's what I decided to do:

Keep the record of 256 GB m2 for start-up and cache. The CT 1 SSD is the main location for my apps and games. I removed the disc 5 400 rpm and put a 1 to 7 200 RPM SSHD in the secondary location. The 5 400 1 TB drive is now in surplus but can be used for other purposes. Everything seems to work properly.

Thanks for all your comments, it's much appreciated.

Best,

Marc

  • How to validate Windows 7 after the migration of the HDD to the SSD on a laptop?

    I upgraded my laptop with a Windows 7 OEM and windows has migrated to the new SSD.

    Now he tells me that my Windows is not genuine, even after that I tried to activate my windows again.

    It's the same machine and the same product key, just a different SSD.

    What should I do?

    But when I check my control panel > system and security > system, I found these details:

    Model: Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion Notebook PC g4

    Rating: 4.7

    Installation of memory (RAM): 4.00 GB

    System type: 64-bit Operating System

    My friend told me it's HP Pavilion g4 1001tx

    Originally, the installed memory is 2,00 GB, then I upgraded to 4.00 GB. Now my question is that I can improve to 8.00 GB? Say to 4.00 GB.

    Should what kind of RAM I buy?

    Please tell me everything related to my question.

    Your help will be very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Louie

    P.S. also how much is the 4 GB? The last time, it has 2 GB, for, we add an another 2 GB to 4 GB but it did not work. We have therefore decided to add 4 GB only. So, is it only 8 GB too?

    Also, how much is the 4 GB? Is it only 8 GB which can be installed right away?

    The last time, I had 2 GB and we put an another 2 GB to 4 GB but it did not work. So, we put 4 GB of RAM only. It worked.

  • Can I use a display target on the iMac with a laptop from Microsoft?

    I have Microsoft Laptop and I would like to connect to my iMac 27 inches to use as a screen that I know we can do it with Mac Book but we can do it in the same way with a laptop computer from microsoft?

    Thank you

    Unfortunately, this is not possible. Apple only supports the display mode of the target if you want to use your iMac as external to display for an another Mini DisplayPort or Mac of Thunderbolt.

    Also, note that you would be able to plug a laptop with Mini DisplayPort connector, or Thunderbolt, and two of them are very strange connectors on non-Apple computers.

  • Problem transmitter 3D laptop from Alienware M17X R3

    I took the time to empty the windows 10 and my system Windows 8.1 and return to an absolute clean install of Windows 7 Professional. My latest Nvidia driver listed on the Dell Support site is the Gfx _NV_P11_306.97_1FWD3_setup_ZPE that works very well for my graphics and PhysX software. However, it does not load the Nvidia 3D drivers, but it says that it cannot initialize the internal 3D transmitter. Please check the connection. I bought a spare transmitter and reinstalled to see if this corrects the problem. Unfortunately, the results are the same, even if I load the original 3D Nvidia driver that was used when the computer was new. Is related also to the 660 M GTX graphics card or it will persist if I use either the 260 m, either cards Nvidia 470 m?

    Thanks for any help in this matter.

    The only way to get 3D to work was to reinstall the GTX 460 M graphics card and Flash the bios with bios Dell Alienware. It works fine then.

  • Pavilion dm4-3090se: how to use the SSD after restoration of the system of Windows backup disks?

    Hello

    After a lot of work, I finally could restore my OS using Windows backup disks that I created a few years back. (The OS has been corrupted when the power has been accidentally deleted from the system and the battery was dead)

    Restoring backup widows put everything on 444 GB C drive.  Nothing I put on the SSD drive d:-20 GB and there is nothing in the tools of HP E: drive - 4 GB

    How can I make use of the SSD drive to help speed up the system?  I see the system starts and runs more slowly now.  I'm ready to blow the current operating system and re-run the Windows backup utility.  But I need to know how to use the SSD during the restoration.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Bob

    Hey @llebrez,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! This is a great place to find solutions and help our community!

    I understand that you have some information about using the SSD in your HP Pavilion dm4 Beats Edition Entertainment Notebook. I'd be happy to help you with that.

    The SSD in your laptop is used for a technology called Intel Smart Response. Intel Smart Response uses the SSD as a type of Cache smart to help load the items faster. The reason why that is not used currently is because the restoration of the system is not designed to use the SSD for intelligent caching and is not able to establish that on its own.

    If you want to configure Intelligent caching on your laptop, you can follow this guide provided by overclock.net: how: implement the Intel Smart Response Technology (SSD caching)

    I hope this helps. If you have more questions that I'm able to answer for you, please do not hesitate to ask.

    Please hold me.

    By pressing the Thumbs Up button below, you can always say thank you!

    See you soon.

    Believe it or not, the maintenance manual is always available.

    Manual

    The Presario 2100 uses old school PATA (EIDE) hard disks that are different from those of the SSD SATA see you more often on the market. However, there is a PATA SSD. They cost a bit more per concert, of course. I put a PATA SSD in a laptop on the same vintage as the Presario 2100 and it does significantly improve start-up time and overall performance, but talk about the proverbial earrings on a pig!

    This is a 64 GB SSD PATA that would be perfect for the Presario 2100, but $ 90:

  • My g56 laptop is compatible with the ssd upgrade

    I want to spend my hard drive on my G56 laptop to an SSD. Is this possible?

    Altogether. Any laptop computer or any other that uses a SATA hard drive can work with and benefit from a SATA SSD.

    Ideally, I need the number of entire model, but here is what I think is your Service Manual:

    Manual

    For installation instructions, see page 37. The best and easiest way to do is to use cloning software and a usb Kit of SATA external drive to copy all the contents of the existing on the SSD drive. This is why you must get an SSD at least as large as the amount of data on the drive already more than 20% for comfort. For most people that means getting at least an SSD 240 or 256 and preference a SSD of 500 or 512.

    A 512 GB SSD will put will cost you at least $315 and a 256 will be around $165. Here's a good 256 on newegg.com:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820147248

    This is the type of SSD, I have my own laptop. You can pair it with a laptop computer upgrade kit which includes the adapter cable.

  • 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. :)

  • Satellite T135-SP2909C - HD to the SSD upgrade, is it possible?

    Hi guys.
    I own a Toshiba Satellite T135-SP2909C.
    The hard drive is broken, so I think buy a SSD drive, but I wonder if it will work on my laptop.
    How would I know if the SSD hard drive work with my laptop?

    I'm thinking of buying this SSD drive.
    Crucial RealSSD C300 CTFDDAC128MAG - 1 1 2.5 ITS (128 GB, SATA)

    If it is not possible to use SSDS with this laptop, think you on Seagate Momentus XT 500 GB?
    Seagate ST95005620AS Momentus XT 500 GB Solid State Drive hybrid - 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3 Gb/s

    I guess this drive work on my laptop, but still, I'm not 100% sure.

    Does anyone have to upgrade this laptop to a disc SSD or Seagate Momentus XT?

    Concerning

    I agree with Akuma. In General, upgrading should be possible, but due to compatibility issue no one can say with certainty if some SSD works properly or not.

    I just hope that some other T135 owners will offer more specific information about these updates.

    Talk with your dealer and ask if there is possibility to make SSDS if something is wrong.

    Please post comments on the upgrade.

    Hello

    1 USB 2.0 to USB 3.0 for a laptop is a change that is very expensive because it will affect to the motherboard to change USB card and even the motherboard itself.

    2 RAM: Yes, you can jump to 8 GB of RAM:

  • G2 640 pro: the BIOS SETTINGS to support an SSD on a laptop HP 640 G2

    I have a laptop HP 640 G2 PRO and I want to upgrade to an SSD.  Is there a bios setting that I have to configure it too?  I know that on some machines they require adjustment of the DCIS instead of IDE bios... I can't find any setting in the bios that allows me to select AHCI or IDE. If it'll work with an SSD without the need to make changes to the configuration of the BIOS screen?

    Hi, Leslie:

    2 x 2 GB PC2 - 6400 will work well in this model, plug-and-play.

    An SSD... could be problematic.

    I've read some reports of members of the forum where they work, and somewhere they are not - for the most part where they do not have.

    Models of Intel-based laptops have a better chance of working than the nvidia/AMD based on models.

    In addition, the chipset nVidia in your model doesn't support AHCI, so the SSD will not perform at its best, if it works at all.

    My recommendation if you want to upgrade the player, is to choose a model of 7 200 rpm which should PEP to the top search on 5 icon time 400 rpm that comes standard on this notebook.

  • Increase the performance of MAC with the SSD upgrade

    I have a 21.5-inch iMac model 14.1 (end 2013) with 8 GB of memory and a 1 TB drive. On this, I use some applications in memory such as Adobe CS 5.5 and VMWare Fusion 8.1.1. I have Applecare on the machine until September 2017. I often find myself running out of memory. My goto solution would be to increase the memory and replace the hard drive with an SSD. I fear, however, that this cancels my Applecare. My research indicates that while that frowned upon, I can upgrade my memory and keep my Applecare as long as it is done by an authorized by Apple, but if I do the SSD I'm out of luck for the installed components. My thought is that I can get an external SSD and move the ' WIndows 10' VM (s), as well as expand and move the swapfiles for the SSD system.»

    My questions are am I right about the Applecare and warranty and I plan to use an external SSD to accelerate performance and ease the work of memory constraints?

    I have f

    I have a Macbook Air in 2010 and also a 2008 iMac - both with only 4 GB of memory (you have twice as much), both running El Capitan and the two with SSD - and perform very well. The 2008 iMac used to have a rotating disc which has recently failed, with the replacement of SSD, it is a remarkable transformation with the new SSD, it seems very quickly for me. Both have Photoshop CS4, which is not used much more, but they run this software very well, as well as MS Office 2011 and other programs such as Mail, Safari, Firefox, etc. (Firefox + Photoshop together put a noticeable load on machines, in fact, but while I sometimes hear the fans come on the Macbook Air, it maintains not up very well) No slowdown) You'll be in great shape with a SSD for your newer computer. These old machines that I use have Core 2 Duo CPUs, chips relatively slow, but they seem very quickly with the SSD.

    You will need to check with Apple directly on your AppleCare and so that would be affected. I don't know that anyone is not Apple should trust this question.
