Upgrade with SSD
I would like to know what SATA type is implemented in my PC ref: Pavilion Elite HPE-020fr. is it possible to improve it with a such SSD: Crucial M500 CT960M500SSD1 Flash SSD drive internal 2.5 "SATA III 960 GB Marvell controller?
Thank you.

The Intel P55 Express chipset on the motherboard supports SATA300.
SATA3 is SATA600 SATA3 specification is compatible with SATA300 downwards The Crucial SSD of M500 sure you questions is compatible and will work. It just will not give you bandwidth SATA3. You can expect data SATA300 transfer 3 Gbps instead of 6 GB/s maximum bandwidth

Satellite L30-134 does not access BIOS after upgrade with SSD
Hello
I have a problem with my old Toshiba L30-134.
When I try to replace the old with new SSD HARD drive, I can't start BIOS.
But when I remove the DVD-ROM laptop and leave there only SSD, then BIOS can start and I see the drive detected. DVD - ROM has PATA/IDE interface.I also tried IDE adapter SATA (like this: [adapter | http://goo.gl/W3TpXt]) for replacement of the DVD-ROM with second SATA HDD and I had the same problem when the disk was present in the adapter.
When the second HARD drive was not present in the adapter, BIOS began. And it's not just about BIOS.
Computer is blocking on startup TOSHIBA logo screen during the hardware detection and there is also no error message.
I can't change the settings on the device SATA IDE/AHCI mode. Is there a workaround with riders or a software solution?
Thanks for help
Hello

You replaced the STRANGE with a HARD drive?
It won't work buddy. The s laptop computer's optical disc drive supports IDE controller. The HARD drive seems to support the SATA controller.The laptop does not power upward because the POST (power on self-test) cannot be passed correctly. During POST the laptop s material will be checked for a possible malfunction or compatibility issues. In your case, the hardware is NOT compatible and that you can't change that.

OEM PC upgraded with SSD, is back on the HARD drive, now 'infringement '.
Hello
A few years ago, I bought a cheap "emachines" for parents. To speed it up, I recently replaced the HDD with a SSD former and re-installed windows from scratch since an ISO downloaded from Digital River. I forgot if it is 32-bit or 64-bit. I called the helpline automated from key OEM cannot be activated online and everything went well.
A few weeks later the PC is regularly crashing, which I suppose is a problem with the SSD drive. Then I advise them to put the old hard drive back, they have carried out. Windows complains now that it is not authentic.
Apart from re - install from scratch, I can do to convince windows that OEM key is always authentic? It is still used with the same motherboard and according to this article on PC pro, the key is tied to the motherboard and it is perfectly fine to change the hard drive.
Thank you very much!
Jonathan.

Upgrade with the SSD, the recovery on the old HARD drive partition
Hi, I would like to upgrade my W530 with SSD. What should I do to have work Pre-boot recovery with recovery partition the disk of HARD now at this time while the system would be the new SSD? Is this possible? BTW, I am considering between mSATA and SSD 2.5 "for windows. Which should I choose? I have to admit mSATA is more convenient for me.
Thanks in advance!
> recovery partition? I don't want to move on SSD
You can skip it when you perform the cloning.
> What about pre-seed recovery? It will work even if I copy the recovery on the SSD partition?
The presence of a recovery partition valid on the active drive (which is the new SSD, in your case) is required for recovery on-site work. So, if this feature is important to you, you should go back to the first question above.
If you have not made your purchase, you should take a close look at the M4 Crucial mSATA SSD 128 GB. Just a suggestion.

the upgrade of my hard drive on my pavilion dv7 4280us.with SSD
Upgrade to ssd drive using my recovery disc to install windows 7 it to load any disc 5 restarts to the start SCREEN of the HP LOGO screen and it doesn't recognize the OCZ VERTEX 4 DRIVE I install.
My PC IS Pavilion dv7 4280us.
Hello:
At less than your SSD is the same size or larger than the mechanical drive, that you have replaced, the recovery disks will more than likely working.
An alternative to the installation of W7 (only if you can read the full product key 25 character), is to do this:
If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.
Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.
The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

Upgrading laptop with ssd. Can I use a Windows 7 system image to install the new ssd?
Bought nww laptop with Win 7 Home Premium 32-bit and the other pre-installed software. No records have been provided. I want to replace the hard drive with ssd. No other changes. I can create a system image on a dvd and physically swap the drives. I can then install Win 7 using the system image, I created? What other software (Microsoft and elsewhere)? If this is not the case, how can I do without having to buy new software?
You can clone the installation for the SSD, provided that the SSD is large enough to accommodate the installation to be cloned.
See http://www.ssdfreaks.com/content/664/how-to-clone-hdd-to-ssd-with-windows-7s-own-software or (easier) use a trial version of Acronis True Image Home 2012.
Note that, immediately after cloning, you must stop and unplug the original installation. The disc can be reconnected once the DSS started successfully.

Satellite U300 - help hardware upgrade to SSD and RAM
Hello world
I want to completely upgrade my toshiba satellite U300-140, mount VISTA and default the technical features, posted above.I need your help to choose the best (and economic) device SSD and RAM slot. It is very important for me to know what is probably compatible with my device. Please, could you help me in your experience?
And... an SSD is worthy, at the speed of my laptop? I was thinking about kingston 120 Gb or 240 GB V300
http://www.Toshiba.it/discontinued-p...Lite-U300-14O/
According to specification for laptop, you can be upgraded up to 4 GB RAM in order to use 2 x 2 GB of RAM. The compatible RAM modules have PA3513U-1M2G part number.
I think with SSD, you shouldn't have any problems. I updated my old P500 with 250 GB Samsung 840 SSD and it works perfectly.

This machine supports the SATA drives, but I don't know if the motherboard
supports several types of SATA drives. I have read several topics on
users who have bought an SSD for the replacement of the old HARD disk in
the laptop - just to find out that the motherboard did was too old and has not been
compatible with SSDS. Even if the motherboard supports some types
SSDS, this is no guarantee that it will work with the purchased SSD.The SSD I think to buy, will be one of them:

Satellite L40's old laptop budget very simply the hardware configuration, so I think that you will not be able to use newest SSDS to this topic.
I really hope someone else can post a positive experience on these updates. What you can try is to contact nearest Toshiba service provide by phone and ask for some advice. They have exact specifications for laptop and, I hope, can help you with this.
By the way: I put t know what is the reason for these updates? More performance, more low composition of power or something else?

ThinkPad Yoga 14 upgrade to SSD
Hello
I just bought the Thinkpad Yoga 14 with i5/8 GB DDR3/1 TB Hybrid drive
I also bought a processor Intel 240 GB SDD upgrade to.
I tried to clone the disk SSD, but it gives just a blank screen or select jumps back to the boot of the screen when start to boot.
I also tried to boot from a USB stick with Windows 8 on it, then install it on the SSD, but the same thing happens when you try to boot from USB (white screen or jumps back to the boot selection screen.
I tried to turn off Secure Boot, boot legacy mode, boot order, Windows load mode turn off/on... nothing works.
Technical hotline of Lenovo does not support upgrades.
Please, any help would be great.
Hello, I did the SSD upgrade last night and everything works so much better! I'm still not sure about the ram if its extensible or not.
Here are the steps I took to swap the drive hybrid SSD HARD drive:
(1) bought SanDisk Ultra II 480 GB Solid State Drive - $139.00
(2) purchased Insignia 3.0 Portable Hard Disk Drive Enclosure - $29.00
The case comes with the cable, you must clone the disks and then you can use your old HDD as a disk after having done an image backup and system if you want to, otherwise you have to buy the enclosure but will cable. I found the cost of the cable start around $10 and go on a $29, so I just went with the box. You can find quite different price elsewhere, that's just what I found locally.
(3) make a backup of your entire system to an external drive, a system image backup and image of the system CD drive just in case.
(4) download cloning software. I went with the free Sandisk recommended software - EZ GIG IV
(5) Connect and clone old HDD to your Instructions SDD news will be with your new drive or the software.
(6) once the clone is complete, unplug your internal battery in the BIOS. Instructions for this can be found in thinkpad manual.
7) turn the power off and remove the laptop cover. Instructions for this are also in the thinkpad manual.
(8) remove the old HARD drive. Thinkpad manual instructions
(9) install the new SSD. Follow the instructions in the manual of Thinkpad and Instructions supplied with SSD
(10) closing the case back up, put the screws back in and power on.
He had a black screen for a while when I turned it on and while I studied what had not worked, that I thought it was normal and literally as I was reading all came and was immediately noticeable how fast he was. I ran the Bios Update tool on the lenovo support area but I didn't have to change anything in the bios and everything works great. I did not remove the 16 GB card as Ive read that some people have. I'm still not sure if this makes a difference or not. The event viewer shows no defects, and it shows as active / online and running.
I'm always interested to find if I can pass the ram from 8 to 16 GB. If anyone knows...
Also, I've upgraded to Windows 10 the day I bought the machine, so I don't know if that has nothing to do with the swap go smoother.
