  I want to upgrade to a hard drive SSD for my notebook Early 2011 MacBook Pro.

  What are the specifications of the SSD looking?

  Is that the kind of 2.5 "(7mm)?"  I was looking at the card SanDisk Ultra II or similar model.

  What is the process or the workflow to change SSD?  (he just plug or do I need a prop?)

  I backed up my current HARD drive for Time Machine on a G-Drive external hard drive.  Can I restore my backup for the SSD of Time Machine, or are there additional steps?

  Thank you in advance.

  Any SSD with a box 2.5 "will be compatible with your MBP.  I recommend OWC SSD or critical based on my experience and other participants of CSA veterans.

  Installing the SSD is the same as for a traditional HARD drive.  Watch this video:

  You must format the SSD in Mac OS extended (journaled) disk utility.  You can use Time Machine to restore your data on the SSD.

My question is can I unplug the old hard drive adapter and plug it into my ssd for sata 3 speed or I have to do something else being the standard disc sata hard 2.

  Hello

  SATA III is backward compatible with SATA II. I think that your machine uses SATA III. You can check yourself by using the following small program:

  (Check out, to the title of the disk controller, SATA III is 6 GB/s)

• Pavilion dv6t-7000 QE: upgrade factory ssd for the four edition dv6t-7000

  I have a laptop DV6T - 7000 CTO Quad Edition, 64-bit Windows 7, I had configured with a 160 GB SSD from the factory.  It works great, very fast, but I want to move to a larger ssd. In looking at a crucial or sandisk pro now, 480 GB or more.

  My question: if I use the cloning software that will copy everything to the new ssd, included windows operating system?

  I really want to do a complete reinstallation of the operating system that I don't see the need for it. Most likely I will modernize in any case next year to win 10, or whatever they called.

  Somehow this update seems easy enough to do, but I want to anticipate any potential isses before we start.

  What do you think? This who should I look for? If there is a problem, can I pop just my current ssd right in?

  Thank you

  Yes he clones above. Choose a proportional resizing of partitions. And Yes, if the clone does not work, you can always pop concert the 160 original. I use Acronis True Image Home 2014 for cloning and it works fine. Some versions of the Samsung 840 and 850 equipped with a migration kit which has the SATA Adapter USB and a CD containing software for disk cloning.

  You can also buy a separate kit:

• Portégé R600-102: what SSD for upgrade?

  Hello everyone.

  I want to upgrade my SSD the real 128 GB to a bigger: what are the specifications for the new SSD to work? Should what interface have? What physical dimensions?

  Any help will be appreciated.

  TIA,
  Flavio.

  Hello

  I guess that the SSD upgrade is the same as the upgrade of the HARD drive.
  The laptop support SATA controller, you will need a SATA SSD.
  The old drive SSD is 9.5 mm in height the new SSD drive should support the same height.

  Given that the SATA controller is not limited to any size, it should be possible to use the SSD drives more of 128 GB but there is still a matter of BIOS support.

  Unfortunately, it s unclear to me if the BIOS would support more large SSD drives, but generally this should be supported.

• Upgrade SSD for Dell XPS 15 9550

  Hello

  I have Dell XPS 9550 with configuration 32 GB SSD + 500 GB HARD disk. I want to upgrade SSD for more space avaliablity.

  But I don't know what type of SSD, I'll need to buy. Also, I read XPS 15 to repair. There are two chapter for the removal and replacement of the SSD in the maintenance manual. First chapter of half-length SSD, second chapter SSD full length.

  What type of SSD is mounted in my laptop? Half or full length?

  How can I identify necessary SSD for me in stores (dimensions, label, etc.)?

  What interface for SSD do I need?  PCIE or SATA?

  What is the map? M2.2280 or PCI-E AIC (-expansion card)?

  Thanks in advance!

  These are all numbers of Dell and descriptions.

  The system uses a PCIe (or is if you want a faster player), 2280 m2 or small size.  UNLESS you buy directly from Dell, it is best NOT to buy versions OEM of SSD (Samsung end pieces in a '1' vs '0' for details).

  OEM spare parts are usually not compatible to end-users by the manufacturer.

  Because you will probably install the operating system for the new SSD, don't forget to make a recovery media set, you need to load the operating system on the larger capacity disk - what you have now is just a cache for the main hard drive.

• What is a good size SSD for Macbook with Bootcamp?

  I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch, mid 2012 version.

  I think about upgrading the SSD HARD drive, but what would be a better option?

  • SSD 256 GB
  • SSD 512 GB

  General information:

  I use my laptop for school work so I need to partition my laptop for Windows as well.

  I have an external hard drive and the USB for storage purposes, but I'm going to need to download apps from the school.

  Minimum requirements:

  • At least 90 GB of free hard drive such that it requires for installation of Windows on Boot Camp
  • HARD DRIVE 250 GB

  Reason why I am upgrading to SSD is for my laptop be quick. Right now, need me at LEAST a minute to start my laptop and most of the time, I have to wait 30 seconds for my laptop to open an app to buy a mac because his young, but now my friends colleagues Windows user starts their laptop in 3 seconds.

  Given the rapid decline of the SSD price, I suggest to get the largest SSD drive you can afford because you don't know how your Windows installation will grow especially if your schoolwork is Windows-based.

  But you can also consider that an alternative to Boot Camp creates a Windows virtual machine in VMware Fusion, Parallels or Virtual Box. He doesn't have to take as much space, can be saved and can be run at the same time as Mac OS rather than to place it.

• Can satellite L300 - I upgrade Vista SSD?

  I'm looking to upgrade a L300 Vista to SSD. Has anyone tried to cela and what SSD for what they recommend?

  In my opinion, you should update you with Win7 32 bit on SSD. A long time ago I installed Win7 32 bit on friends Satellite L300. The laptop works much better with Win7.

  Upgrade SSD shouldn't be problematic. You can get the Toshiba SSD or some other manufacturers SSD.

  If you need help or assistance please let us know.

• Is a good PNY CS1211 SSD for my computer?

  I own a MacBook Pro and I am wanting to upgrade the HDD with a SSD and I wonder if a PNY CS1211 SSD (480 GB) will be my fast computer. Also, I wonder if I can exchange my SuperDrive with a trolley that can contain a HDD/SSD without voiding my warranty. Please answer; Thank you very much!

  I own a 13 "MacBook Pro early 2011 2.3 GHz with 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 RAM.

  SSD drives... OWC (macsales.com) or Cruical are most recommended.  I've been running a Crucial SSD for 2 years without problem.  Samsungs have many problems reported here... maybe because of thousands used if the questions are obvious but even Samsung does not claim full compatibility Mac on their Web site.

  As for replace the Superdrive by 2nd drive... not really a 'guarantee' issue with a 2011 system that has left no guarantee.  But it is not exactly "authorized" by Apple.  You might get some resistance of Genius Bar if you take it in to... say... battery or display or the logic of Council's questions.  Probably if it was still in warranty the warranty would be void.

• Upgrade to SSD

  Good morning-

  I want to upgrade to an SSD as my first (C drive.) I know how to do the physical plant - the only thing I want to know is how to get my Windows 7 Professional SP1 x 64 on the SSD. I know that I can pull an existing HARD disk image and migrate to the SSD, but I put it on their neatly. So I have the recovery Partition (D of HDD and a set (4) recovery disks to work with media.) After making it, I'll use for My Documents and storage HARD drive. I want to only use the SSD for the OS and the progs.

  Thanks for the comments!

  Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds

  Paragon Software is my preference. I highly recommend Migration of Paragon software.  They give me copies NFR software for my use free of charge.

  Your image shows an AHCI driver is actually installed. You have the chance to own a model that allows the activation of the AHCI in the BIOS. Not that many laptops have this option.

  I had no problem when I tested the download link I have provided. See the following image.

  

  When you bought the memory you guaranteed that the manufacturer or seller guarantees compatibility with your specific laptop?

  It is really not sufficient to just match plug published memory and connect a module and expect that it will work.

  Which only adds uncertainty after an upgrade.

  By different manufacturers of memory modules are not designed with the timings of primary and secondary identical.

  This is why problems with modules that have not been tested by the manufacturer for the specific hardware.

  If the Memory Diagnostic test indicates a failure, can believe it.

  This is probably what is corrupt files in your operating system.

  The memory usage that is not working properly can corrupt actually all an operating system and you probably don't want that to happen.

  You should really consider changing your method of upgrade memory. Take the safe way with minimal risk. Identical pairs of guaranteed compatible memory upgrade. Never add a single module of memory which is not absolutely identical to the module that is already there.  The manufacturer has left to test.

• Solid State Drive (SSD) for notebook 1160us dm4, a SATA II or SATAIII?

  I would go to an SSD and I was wondering if this laptop supports SATA III or 6 GB/s transfer rate. The HARD disk that is in a Seagate ST9500420AS ATA and research shows that he has a transfer rate of 3 gb/s. I don't know if I should buy an SSD is 6 GB/s or 3 Gbps. don't know if the motherboard supports (SATAIII / 6 GB/s)?

  Thoughts? Someone has upgraded to SSD s. Also, how / what did you use to transfer the old drive or you just reinstall Windows 7?

  Thank you

  Hello

  1. most likely, it is a SATA II controller. You can use the following program to check:

  FTP://FTP.CPUID.com/PC-Wizard/PC-wizard_2012.2.11.zip

  

  (In my case, the controller is a SATA III).

  2. I normally have "clone" of the HARD drive, this will save a lot of time to reinstall many things. I use a product called O & O DiskImage to perform this work, very fast and the success rate of 100%. A small note: you need a larger SSD (capacity) than the drive that you want to clone - normally C:. You can try this free product:

  http://www.EASEUS.com/disk-copy/

  Some SSD vendors also provide a product of cloning for you to do this work.

  Kind regards.
