Upgrade the X120e HDD SSD

I had my two years, bought just before the SSD X120e became affordable.  Now, I would like to upgrade.  I was wondering if there is a compatible with my system SSD.  Maybe: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-76749?  In my opinion, it supports X 200, ThinkPad X 201, X200s, X201s, X 220, X 200 Tablet, X 201 Tablet, but it's like the X120e disappeared from the support database.  Do you believe that the X120e will support an SSD, perhaps with a firmware update?  Thank you very much for your answers.

I put in a Samsung 830 128 GB (7mm thick, 2.5 inches) in my x120e. Has worked fine for many months now. I don't know any similar SSD, including those with the largest capacity, works very well. Make sure you get the right thickness of the SSD (7mm). No need to update the firmware. Clone your HARD drive on the SSD via the USB port, (I used EaseUS Todo free sw), swap in the SSD drive and you're good to go.

  • How put the 2nd HDD/SSD in XPS 17 L701X-... There is no support!

    I would like to replace my HDD for an SSD, but I want to continue to use the original HARD disk. The XPS 17 has two positions of HARD drive, but only one of them has the bracket. Where can I get a second tranche? None is listed in the list of items on the Web site.

    I'm fine with another type of support that adapts, but so far I paint a white when searching for it.

    Hey @ChuckBattams,

    Welcome to the forums of HP.

    I understand that you have questions about upgrading the size of SSD in your laptop Pavilion x 2.

    The phone supports up to 128 GB SATA SSD m2. Note that a SATA m2 is slimmer that a portable player standard as it should adapt to the passage of the computer Tablet laptop beware therefore looking for an upgrade. The laptop should theoretically work with a larger SSD, but I can only confirm that he will work with up to 128 GB as shown in the guide of your device.

    You can see detailed instructions on the replacement of the SSD on page 44 here: PC HP Pavilion 11 x 2 - Maintenance and Service of Guide.

    Note the part number 742736-001 listed for the 128 m 2 GB SATA drive.

    I hope this helps.

    The OS is Windows 7 32 bit. Everything else works well.

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the HDD/SSD Alert cmdlet and the Intel Rapid Storage driver, but none of the measures have worked.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Try this:

    Reset

  • TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert - do I need if I have my laptop on a desk?

    Hello all, I guess my question is not on the HARD drive or the hardware itself, its subject the load or the process CPU usage alert hdd in my laptop. Fact it gives a heavy load for my memory?
    Someone at - he noticed your laptop to be a bit slower when this option is enabled?
    I know it's protection for my HARD drive, I understand that was a time when my laptop falls or is hit, the hard disk will fail and my HDD is damaged.
    But how useful this app if I have my laptop on a desk all the time without danger?

    Do you advise me to turn it off?

    In general the TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert function must monitor the operating status of HARD drive and run the backup of the system. It is very useful, but certainly not so important, tool that must run all the time. It runs in the background, does not use the resources so and in fact there is no reason to stop it, only if you want.

    That recommend you?
    In my opinion you should let it run. I have the Satellite P500 and it works all the time. I t n t n stop and I noticed a few performance bad/slow more laptop because of this.

  • Upgrade the HARD drive and install SSD XP to Windows 7 upgrade - which command?

    I want to make some improvements to my trusty HP XP media center PC m7350n.  Ideally, here's what I want to do in a certain order:

    -upgrade the HARD drive (currently 250 and 500 GB installed, replace with 750 unique?)

    -install an SSD as boot drive (60 to 120 GB?)

    -Reinstall XP restore disks media center

    -do a upgrade 'clean' for win 7 Home premium (64 bit?) from the disc "upgrading"

    The Windows 7 upgrade disk looks like for XP/Vista, so I can't put new hardware and go directly to a cost of Win 7 install.

    Plan a.

    I understand the look of for the minimum size of disks restore disks.  All guess what SSD size would be the minimum? I guess the upgrade of the first hard drive and reinstall XP MC since the restore disks would be trivial (as opposed to their use after a motherboard replacement).  If I have XP MC on the SDS, it is only a reason any Win 7 no upgade SDS?

    Plan B

    If I install the SSD after upgrade to Windows 7, I guess I have to use something like a disk copy program to the boot from SSD HARD disk partition.  SUGESTIONS?

    Plan C

    Restoration of SKIP.  Move existing partitions of 250 and 500 GB drives to 750.  Update for Win 7.  Install an SSD.  Move the boot partition.  Use the same drive for both copy program?

    Am I missing something?

    In case anyone is wondering, I have a spare 750Go drive and the Windows 7 upgrade disk so the only "cost" of this update is to purchase the SSD (and if necessary disk copy program).

    Thank you!

    Don,

    Please read this article by Paul Thurrott more "Clean install Windows 7 with upgrade media '. It essentially says you can make a completely clean install on a drive with no operating system. The key is not to enter the COA product key after installation is complete. I, myself, installed Windows 7 to discs using disks 'upgrade' several times without problems of installation or activation. The order I do it with, is as follows:

    1 copy all the files and folders of the 250 and the 500 GB HDD of 750 GB.

    2. remove the 250 GB, 500 GB and 750 GB of computer hard drives.

    3. install the SSD.

    4. install Windows 7 on the SSD without entering the product key.

    5. Once finished Windows 7 installation, enter the product key and activate Windows.

    6. return old hard disks of computer as needed.

    7. install purchased software and Windows updates if necessary.

    You should go to 4 GB of RAM to get the most out of Windows 7 64 bit and you can upgrade your graphics card.

    Note: You will lose all software provided CVS Windows XP on your m7350n. Make sure that you create your HP recovery discs before you proceed with the change of equipment or install Windows 7. Your HP recovery disks can have the factory included HP software... it may or may not work with Windows 7. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

  • I need to upgrade my Mac (MacBook white unibody mid 2010) with a SSD (and iMac mid-2010) and the RAM and SSD

    I need to upgrade my Mac (white unibody MacBook mid-2010) with a SSD (and iMac mid-2010) and the RAM and SSD: I look to buy upgrades site Crucial and OWC site and there is a little difference, in terms of money: it's better to buy the Crucial site or OWC site.

    MacBook, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

    < re-titled by host >

    They have good tools to find compatible parts for your Mac models.  The OWC took is here

    http://eShop.MacSales.com/MyOWC/

    OWC tends to have the most detailed information on the Mac.  If I look to the top of the part to OWC and review specifications.  OWC offers often information based on the Mac-specific tests.  If Crucial offer something similar for a substantially lower price, buy it from Crucial.  I'm sure they have a refund is not political, if a part they say is compatible.  I bought the RAM and SSD both Crucial and OWC.  From my experience, be it high quality.

    For the 2010 iMac, OWC also offers a "kit" (with the tools and support) to replace the hard drive of 3.5 inches with a 2.5-inch SSD.  Eventually, if it's a 27-inch iMac, I think that you can Add the SSD instead of replace the hard drive.  And they have self-produced how-to videos on the process, related to many of their lists of products.  OWC provides a lot of information with added value and service for Mac users.

    OWC also offers kits to replace the optical drive on some Macs (including MacBooks) with an SSD (as a secondary internal drive).

  • 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.

  • Recovery disks contradictory w / upgrade HP Envy 17 3D [HDD-&gt; SSD]

    Hey everybody!

    I have a HP ENVY 17 t - 1100 CTO 3D Edition laptop with Windows 7. He had two hard drives in it, 500 GB a piece. I just put the primary HDD with a SSD Samsung 840 Pro Series drive. Before I did the swap, I did recovery DVD from my system. I am able to get to the Manager of HP recovery during the boot sequence, but the ability to perform a factory reset is grayed out. Because I can not install my HP Win 7 DVD, so I did a fresh install of Windows 8.1 in the meantime. But I still prefer to use my recovery disks because the 3D work well with Windows 8.1. My drive is of type is Basic.

    Thank you

    Recovery discs are usually working on a smaller than the original hdd. An option could be reducing the C partition on the original hdd to the SSD size and then clone it to the SSD.

    Or - you can copy the folder the original hard drive on a DVD or a flash drive SwSetup, use the installation programs of the drivers/software on a clean install of Windows 7.

    =============================

    If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

  • T61 - unsuccessful attempt to upgrade the HDD using "Acronis True Image - disk clone".

    T61, Win XP Pro,

    Problems with the free space on HDD - disk(160GB) factory original is more than 90% full.

    There are a lot of existing user settings and the user information on the HARD drive - of the specific settings for different network environments (home network, company network, VPN, etc.), specific applications, a lot of drivers for specific devices, many documents and photos and other information.

    So, we need to upgrade the disk, but we do not want to go back to factory state - we want to keep all existing user settings and user information.

    The existing drive was dismantled and connected to a standard desktop PC.

    And using "Acronis True Image Home" the existing drive has been cloned again drive WD Scorpio Black 320 GB.

    There is not any errors during the cloning process.

    But when we set up the new drive of the laptop, the OS has not started - black screen with blinking cursor only flashing white dash (top left). So, we put back the old disk, in order to work.

    After cloning, we see the new disk is similar, as it is on the old drive. There are two partition - hidden, system partition partition with Windows XP and all user folders and documents. Thus, we believe that the problem is only in part "start".

    Everyone can us advice what is the problem.

    Or we let another solution how to change the drive, but without going to the factory condition.

    Thank you

  • The upgrade memory and HDD on Satellite Pro A300-1EA

    So, I'm new to this forum so first of all Hello to all!

    I plan to buy the Satellite Pro A300 1EA and I came to the conclusion that I need to buy more memory that the thing has already installed (2 048 MB).
    I tried to search for information through Kingston and OCZ, but have not found something solid on what memory modules are supported by the A300-1EA.

    The A300-1EA uses DDR2 800 Mhz type of memory (max 8192MB) instead of just dealing with one module 2084 installed, I had intended to get two of them.

    What I have to buy two identical modules, or can I increase memory by simply adding a module to match installed?
    So if anyone has an idea where I could find on the modules of memory supported, that would be swell! :)

    The other thing is quite the same, but only with hard disks. I found many potential readers than fullfill my needs for a faster drive (upgrade of 5400 RPM / min-> 7200 RPM), but I don't know which ones work with this laptop.

    After all, I'm in the impression that laptops are not so easy on these pieces as desktop computers.

    Thanks in advance!

    Satellite Pro A300-1EA belongs to the series of PSAG9E, and it seems that it was fitted on the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express.
    As far as I know, that you can improve this laptop 4 GB RAM max so I wonder which tells you something about 8 GB support.
    You can upgrade the memory to 4 GB, and you can use the 200-PIN SODIMM 800 MHz modules.

    But to be honest I don t understand why you want to upgrade if the 32-bit Windows operating system will see only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system.

    With regard to the drive HARD;
    You need a HARD drive 2.5 SATA.
