  If you could get by with a small (120 gig) SSD and shopped for a drastic sales, it might be useful. Topic: $45

  What do I need install the second hard drive HP PAVILION: p6633w?

  Hello

  You need two cables, one is a sata cable:

  This cable is only for data and connect the hard drive to the SATA connector on the motherboard.

  The other cable is energy:

  http://www.itpartsdirect.com/STARTech-15-24cm-4-pin-Molex-to-SATA-power-cable-adaptor.html

  It connects the hard drive to the PSU.

  You can also buy a combo like this cable:

  All you have to do is to connect the hard drive and that's it. Make sure that the main drive with the operating system is connected to the primary SATA connector (I think there are the numbers 1, 2, 3...)

• Can you put a 500 g SATA hard drive in Pavilion a750w?

  Can you put a 500 g SATA hard drive in Pavilion a750w?  The bios is version v3.26, and the operating system is XP with SP3.  40 gig HD is full and you are looking to replace it but do not know what the size limit is with this bios version.

  Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion a705w desktop. This is based on the assumption that you converted the 5 and 0 and the fact that you mentioned a 40 GB hard drive.

  You already have the most current version of the BIOS of your computer and running the most recent service pack of Windows XP. Your computer and the operating system should support a drive of 500 GB without problem. The only problem is that your computer isn't any SATA ports, only 66/100 IDE (PATA). Look at local retailers and online for the IDE drives.

• Firebird 802 - upgrade hard drives - Solid State / hybrid anyone?

  I'm upgrading hard drives on my Firebird 802 (the part the WEAKEST of my Firebird and the SMALLEST score on Windows Index). I replaced the drive secondary with a Seagate 500 GB SATA drive at 7200 RPM (ST950042 4AS) and REALLY improved performance (I have my file on the secondary drive).

  It's now time to upgrade the MAIN disk. I'm looking at a "Hybrid" car A Seagate ST95005620AS Momentus XT 500 GB Solid State Hybrid Drive - 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3 Gb/s.

  Has anyone tried upgrading the main drive of a hybrid? For a solid Sate drive?

  Thank you

  Enzo

  Well WELL, @ 10:39 PM PST after FOUR and a HALF and TWO attempts of the hybrid drive WORKS as my main drive on my Firebird 802!

  Using the data transfer software CMS Bounceback ($14.99 per download) the program was missing several files that were essential for the computer to boot. Once I checked the transfer journal and moved the files myself IT BOOTS!

  THUS, in a few weeks, I'll post the kind of increases in speed that I experience. First comment, my drives are running @ 98 degrees F. It's HOT, so I'll have to come back a fan for the hard disk enclosure, in fact, you can put at the front of the box and jump through this background grid. Going to put in place tomorrow. Now I'm BEAT!

  Thus, it CAN BE DONE on your Firebird! Solution, HERE!

  Thank you!

• 6400 upgrade Hard Drive just SHRUNK... Once again!!!

  First of all let me state that I am ready to throw my computer and TWO 2, TWO Yes upgrade hard drives out of my 2nd floor window!

  OK, my wind is done, for now.

  I have an Inspiron 6400 with HDD 80 GB of origin (73.1 GB space.)  I wanted to go to a Western Digital 250 GB hard drive.  I bought the drive and cloned it.  My first attempt was a purchase Norton Ghost program (after the $150 for the reader, that's another $50 for the program) I cloned it from the laptop via a USB - SATA connection.  Everything seemed fine, until I swapped hard drives.  He got through the BIOS, no problem, then started to windows.  Immediately, it projected blue and that was that.  Swap return original hard drive, everything OK.  Put old drive in the spare computer/SATA slot and realized that the reader shrunk to 73.1 GB. . the SAME SIZE as the original drive.

  After days/weeks and literally probably 5 to 6 hours of troubleshooting, downloading about 4-5 programs, utilities, etc, and have EVERY single utility, test and program otherwise tell me the car was very good (less the fact that he was now 170 GB smaller) I thought that drive was simply bad then returned.  (After fighting with Tiger Direct, I had to return it directly to WD, but they at least sent me a replacement unit before that I had to return the first...  (where my 'two' drives))

  So I have the new, 2nd hard drive in hand and I say to myself that I would be the clone differently, from my desktop (Dell 690) who had a few ports SATA spare on it.  I cloned it with a different program and once again, everything seems to be okay.  It showed in my office.  This time, I've set manually the new disk partitions to what I end up with.)

  So I put the new, larger, cloned drive in the computer, booted and BAAM!  Exactly the same thing.  Blue screen stop...  And guess what... The drive is now 73.1 GB. . and once more, there is nothing I can do to bring back to 250 GB... any computer, software, utility, etc. I throw at it or throw it out in...

  Back to Western Digital... but this time, I don't know yet what to say or how to proceed.

  My questions are:

  1. What is happening and why I can't get a 250 GB drive in the machine.  (I can't find ANYWHERE a maximum limit of hard drive)

  2. any thoughts on how to get my drive to the correct size of declaration?

  I'm really steam it... I have never spent so much time on what should be a simple question in my 15 years and more and about 20 + systems of computers through my hands...

  Thanks in advance

• Can not activate CS4 Web Premium after the upgrade Hard Drive Mac OS x 11.3

  I can't access any program now CS4 after upgrade my hard drive to an SSD. I get a small dialog box saying "license for this product has stopped working. Error code 150:30"MacBook Pro, OS X 11.3 (el Capitan). The chat tech support person told me that CS4 is "not compatible" with El Capitan, but I've been using Cs4 for several months now with El Capitan, so it's not true.

  In the past, when I've got a new Mac or upgraded the operating system, I had the opportunity in an Adobe dialog to enter my serial number in, but this is not the case now.

  Nothing has changed since this morning except my newly upgraded hard drive. Except that this time I don't have a way to enter my serial number and reactivate.

  Can anyone help?

• Help! Replace HARD drive on Pavilion dm1z-2100 CTO

  I've had this laptop for a few years and am very happy with it - recently, I decided that I wanted to replace the 320 GB HARD drive with a third party 256GB SSD.  I created the recovery media of six DVD disc via the HP Recovery Manager, replace the laptop hard drives and booted up with the recovery DVD.  The HP Recovery Manager offers 3 options for reformatting and reinstalling the software on the hard disk: System Recovery, Factory Reset and Image Recovery reduces to a minimum.

  Try the system recovery and reduced Image Recovery seemed to work, as he cycled through all 6 DVD recovery and then prompted me to restart.  When I did, the two options by train several times, restarting the computer as usual ended with the prompt "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".  I tried the Recovery Manager factory reset option and it gave me this error message: "this computer's hard drive is smaller than the original shipped the drive.  The recovery process may not continue. »  (!!)

  While HP Recovery Manager is concerned, he seems to have no way to reinstall my OS and start upward with my new SSD.  I don't think that there is not a way around it.  Anyone can shed some light?

  Thank you.

  This is not good.

  Did you check the file size of the DVD and make sure it was the full 3. XX GB?

  Sometimes you get the message the download is finished, but the downloaded file is smaller than the size it should have been.

  If it is fine...

  If you have a 4 GB USB flash drive, go to plan b....

  Just follow these instructions...

  Download the MS of W7 USB installation tool and read the instructions on the page to use.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

  You may also make this mod as I did if the flash tool-error.

  Download the bootsect file form http://www.everettsporting.com/bootsect.zip

  You will need to go into Control Panel, select display large icons, go to the icon of folder options, view tab, and select the hidden files and folders option.

  Once downloaded, copy the BootSect.exe file in the same folder that contains the file of Windows7-USB-DVD-Download - Tool.exe installed. This file in Windows 7's default installation directory is C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Apps\Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool\

  Run the application from the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool as described on the Microsoft Store website. The end result will give you a boot USB flash drive that contains everything you need to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

• Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!

  Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!  Gee, who could have possibly guessed that would happen?  I tried all kinds of silly workarounds, I found on the internet, but still it will not register the stack of DVDs and other discs I have.

  If you're like me and upgraded your iMac that came with a cd/dvd drive internal... so he has to come out to give way to the fusion or the SSD drive, do NOT buy the apple superdrive.  It will work with your computer!

  Think I'll get a laptop samsung...

  Ironic, isn't it? Own Apple SuperDrive will not work with Apple computers. Shame you don't check here first that we would have warned you. Return Apple overpriced and buy a nice third-party player for a third of the price. I love the LG units. You can consider a loading plate because they are more reliable, and you can use these pesky disc when you get one.

• I want to Exchange my hard drive of my iMac for one SSD. Existing hard drive will be cloned on the SSD. I have CS 3 Design Standard installed. What I have to deactivate/reactivate CS3 or will keep the data license/activation?

  Oh, I of course put the whole issue in the reference line.

  I'll repeat it here.

• HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15: I changed my hard drive (HP Pavilion), how can I get all features associated HP I used to have?

  My hard drive is broken on my HP Pavilion sleekbook 15.

  (Pavilion product number: D3D66EA-#UUW)

  I had to change it and, of course, to reinstall my windows 8.1 (I have the installation DVD)

  Everything works fine with windows, my problem is that the I ve lost all my HP related software and features.

  At the start, he says just something on the motherboard and then he hits me with a logo instead of the HP logo and stuff Windos... Everything seems to work twice as slow as it was before I had to change the HD? Both the HD: s had the same spesifications.

  Is there anyway I could get the default HP-software and features on my new hard drive?

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  You said that you have restored your PC using a DVD, but HP recover media consists of a SET of DVD, not a single DVD - so I have to assume that it was NOT a support of HP recovery.

  Ordinarily, I advise to use HP recovery media to restore your PC to its original state. That would erase the entire disk, format the drive and install the operating system, drivers and utilities HP.
  
  Unfortunately, there is no support of HP recovery related to HP for your PC Product Page. This could be an oversight by HP, or it could also mean that HP stock is no longer the recovery media for your PC. They store any long recovery media for older PCs.
  
  You can try to contact the HP customer directly, using the links below, to see if you can order them if:

  If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
  
  If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
  
  NOTE: once you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to someone ' one - it can take a while!

  If HP no longer provides a recovery media for your model, a few other sites, you should check are: http://www.computersurgeons.com/ and http://www.restoredisks.com/

  Good luck

• HP Pavilion P 6235uk: upgrade hard drive

  Hi, I have a HP Pavilion P 6235uk desktop PC.

  The hard drive is 640 GB.

  I would like to replace it with a hard drive to Go 1000 or 2000. The hard drive interface is Serial ATA 11. Mewmory type is DDR3-SDRAM. It is 8 GB. Just wondering if anyone knows what hard drive I can use and 1000 or even 2000 GB.

  Thank you

  laurencewithau

  Hello @laurencewithau,

  I understand that you are looking to upgrade the hard drive on your desktop computer, and I'd be happy to help you in this case!

  According to the Specifications of the product, you can update your system with any size of drive hard as much as it meets the following requirements:

  1. It has a SATA port connection
  2. The male power connector corresponds to the insertion on the replacement hard drive
  3. It is the same physical size as the previous hard disk. If it is less, you can always purchase a mounting bracket on the space difference.

  For more information about upgrading the hard drive, please take a look at this resource on installing or replacing a hard drive.

  Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!

• Pavilion DV6 2155dx: upgrade HARD drive to SSD

  I want to upgrade my laptop Hp HDD to the SSD. Very successful on the 2 HP desktops. But not a great success on the laptop. Windows does not start with the installed SSD. Black screen with how to text of amendments, but no solution. Checking the BIOS it seems too basic and has no provision to select the correct setting. How can I upgrade the laptop to recognise and start of the SSD, as desktop computers.

  Problem solved. Maybe this helps someone else.

  For reference, the SSD HARD drive migration has been completed with Samsung software tools.

  Although a similar migration was very successful on 2 offices of HP prior as the PC starts fine, this time the laptop set to level did not boot from SSD.

  Based on the reviews elsewhere on the web, with the portable operating from the original HARD disk, I adjusted the BIOS boot sequence to boot from the internal CD-ROM. I was then already migrated SSD HARD drive. Then I started from a prior agreement prepared the repair Windows 7 Bootable disc - now I know why they are so very precious! - and started to repair startup disk said. After a few additional steps miners, he says the problem fixed and carried out traditional, clean startups.

  Also, I can confirm that the Pavilion DV6 works very well with a 250 GB SSD. Most good, this is a speedster. There is therefore no limitations to 160 GB the HP Document seems to suggest.

  PC will have 40 GB of HDD (any brand).  Make sure that the drive is PATA (parallel).  SATA (serial) will not work.
