• Cannot set the password for hard drive on the W530 with Intel SSD 520

  Hello

  I have a w530 with an Intel SSD 520 in primary hard drive Bay. Whenever I try to set a password for the primary hard drive, it doesn't stick. If I chose master + user or simply user, I will enter the password, it will take the passwords without producing an error and then just dump back me to the screen of passwords while leaving the disabled hard drive password.

  BIOS is on the latest version for the w530 and SSD, the machine seems fairly normally operate differently.

  Does anyone have ideas how I can activate the password? Thank you!

  Hi, ctenorman

  I did some research and came across this thread of Intel. There are a few people in the thread who were able to set the password on this particular drive. It seems that changing the BIOS "SATA" compatibility mode, set the password, restart, and then change it to "AHCI" worked for some, but not all customers with this player.

  Good luck and let me know how it goes

• dv9550 and Intel SSD X 25 - M SATA / IDE

  Hello

  I bought my HP Pavilion in 2007 and in March 2010 I bought Windows 7 (64-bit) and Intel SSD X 25 - M 80 GB Gen2. And I noticed the wire that fell off my SSD performance.

  I discovered that my computer doesen't interface use S - ATA but IDE on the SSD drive because of the map associated to the hard drive of my computer (an adapter that are used to mount the S - ATA drives).

  And when my SSD drive use IDE interface, then Intel SSD Toolbox doesen't use TRIM function and then on my SSD performance fell.

  I read that I should change it to AHCI mode in the BIOS, but I don't find it anywhere because I don't have "' access restricted and see all the features I want to see in a normal installation of BIOS.

  Is it possible to "lock" the BIOS and put the drive in AHCI mode in order for my SSD drive work faster?

  Check the Device Manager, expand IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers and see if there is an AHCI controller installed, if there is then AHCI is enabled.

• Tecra R950 Intel SSD 520 and SSD set password = F4 BSOD after reactivation

  Hello
  follwing problem:
  Tecra R950 with Intel SSD and HDD/SSD series 520 passes together = always F4 BSOD after activation of the standby mode.
  OK with no password set.
  OK with Hibernate.
  Same problem with iastor and msahci driver.

  Any ideas? Think it's a problem with the bios. He goes down the ssd when wakeup, same cannot write a dump of memory (error 0xc0000010), the necessary cold start-up.

  Hello

  Replace the SSD drive?
  As far as I know a lot of the Tecra R950 was equipped with a 500 GB HARD drive.

  I could be linked to the SSD drive

• Qosmio G30 and intel SSD - Windows 7

  Hi, I'm new to the forum

  I have a Qosmio G30 with Windows 7 32 bit - model G30 140 31F
  I bought an SSD intel 160 GB because of the promissed 250 MB/sg reading speed, because I need for video editing.
  I tried in Win Xp and now Windows 7 and it gets up to 120 MB/Sg

  I guess it s because of the drivers but I instal the drivers of storage can´t intel matrix any version of it. I tried a lot of them and with the compatibility mode too. It gives me an error saying I have not the minimum requirement.

  I have 4 GB of RAM and 2.0 Gzs centrino duo.
  I have install intel ssd toolbox and it does not recognize the intel SSD drive as a drive intel to improve the speed and other things.

  Please help me to get my speed in the car because it has to be and to have the TRIM option enable in order to have the life of my unit any longer.
  I also have the latest firmware in the drive.

  Thank you in advance.

  DANI

  PD: It coul be, perhaps, if our computer is a sata 150 controller in place a 300 sata controller? I don't know if the control is one of them in any case.

  Hi Gazpachete,

  I put t know how you managed now installing Windows, but Qosmio G30 is equipped with a SATA150 interface... This means that you will never get the 250 MB/s read speed of the HARD drive. You will get a maximum speed of 150 MB/s theoretically, but in most cases it of also a little slower.

  How did you check the current speed?
  But 120 MB/s is a good speed. You should be satisfied and it s faster than each computer portable HARD drive. ;)

• My thinkpad W520 and my ssd (Crucial M4 128)

  Hello people. I read the thread entitled W520 and various issues of ssd. In fact, it was a relief for me to read after all the trouble I had try my M4 running successfully in my W520.

  When I first installed the M4, it wouldn't let me install windows. I tried many things and almost come to the conclusion that the drive itself is bad because he called me all kinds of problems. That opinion changed when I tried my M4 in other machines. It all worked perfectly. Then, I thought: * beep *? Would it be the laptop? When I came across the wire, that I mentioned above, I knew I wasn't alone and knew that it was actually a compatibility issue.

  However, I was reading comments the other day on the W520, and many critics included ssd in their tests and reported good results. There was no mention of any problem of ssd. I also noticed in many forums that some users take advantage of their W520 strengthened by the performance of the ssd.

  So, it's like a situation of chance/unlcuky? Some w520 will work with ssd and some won't be fair?

  There is only one thing that I haven't tried yet. Try the M4 in the my W520 with its latest firmware update (0009)... better suddenly you think?

  And where is all this lenovo?

  Thank you.

  Just for you guys do know. He has WORKED with the latest firmware.

  Now, I write my W520 with the Crucial installed M4.

  Thanks for everyone.

• Is not start a new series of SSD Intel 520 180 GB replaced on ENVY Notebook (i7 3632QM) WINNING 8 m4

  I have a couple of this desire m4 I7 product: C2M81UA #ABA who have 1 TB blue WD scorpio Win 8 Preinstaled.

  It is up to date with the latest form of HP, Intel and Microsoft updates. Including fast storage to intel.

  Recovery operating system, applications and drivers DVD set has been created using HP recovery utility.

  After that, HD has been replaced with SSD Intel 520 Series 180 GB.

  Issue.

  SSD is not start after the installation of the OS was made using the HP installation DVD set.

  Remarks:

  The SSD is recognized, while holding, partitioned and Windows is correctly installed
  However it does not start it freezes after Hp logo without message when Win 8 should begin.
  Changing legacy BIOS boot and secureboot options results in error message appear "3F0 there is no boot device."
  even if a new fresh installation by using any combination of these options, the SSD is recognized and the tests went ok in the bios utility.

  Linking the SSD as external USB installation interrupted Windows can be seen.
  He tried with an another SSD, which is the same model with the same results.

  Compatibility was previously at the website of intel for this mobile chipset QM77 http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/performance-chipsets/mobile-chipset-qm77.html

  and SSD http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/ssd-520-brief.html

  In my opinion, it may be an option of configuration of the bios, firmware or the driver, but after 3 weeks I'm out of ideas.

  Does anyone has an idea how to solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  He finally works!, what I just did in the last hours is to reinstall from the recovery HP DVD media. But first I set old bios to activate OS, Secureboot to disable.

  Then it was installed, it worked well this time.

  When I did disabled legacy BIOS os and active secureboot.

  It runs as it wants!, it takes only 5 seconds to turn screen tile (I use fingerprint to log).

  Thank you all for your support!

• Lenovo Intel HD 3000 Z570 and Nvidia GT 520 questions

  I'm having a lot of trouble with this laptop recently, it has the optimus nvidia with the intel hd 3000 and nvidia gt 520, I can't get either the nvidia gpu not working at all I can see in my device manager and it has the message "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) "in the properties of the device, also when I click on the Nvidia Control Panel I get the message"Display settings not available - you are currently not using A display attached to A Nvidia Gpu NVIDIA", I know that there is a switch on the front of my laptop which is supposed to enable the gpu from nvidia, but when I use the switch nothing happens , except that the light next to the switch is still on, the nvidia card worked very well and I had no problems with it, but I restarted my pc one day and BAM, nothing works, I tried a lot with this, I uninstalled my graphics drivers and re-installed both of them, I looked in the BIOS and it is set to "Optimus" I updated the BIOS and all my computer drivers I also tried to reinstall windows today, but it still doesn't work, when I run Dxdiag it recognizes only Gpu Intel HD and not the Nvidia one, it's incredibly frustrating, above, I have not used this card and it is not any visuably wrong with it everything on my computer works perfectly well, that's just the gpu from nvidia , the reason why I am so angry over this is I really need the gpu nvidia working I'm on a college course which requires me to have a good graphics gpu to run programs like photoshop and cinema 4 d and they work better with the nvidia gpu. If anyone has any idea at all so please please tell them to me, I'm willing to try anything at this point.

  Never mind to this subject, but if someone come across this topic and has the same problems. Here's what I did.

  Shut down the laptop computer

  At startup screen press F2 to enter the BIOS settings go to display and change of "Optimus" to "UMA" only save and exit and continue boot

  When back on desktop close the laptop once more and get into the BIOS, even once, once there change everything back to default settings then save and exit. When I did my control panel nvidia and card worked once more and I have not had problems since when restart everything worked again.

• Intel SSD on Latitude E6410?

  I tried adding a 160 GB Intel SSD to a new E6410 and the bios does not recognize, no matter the SATA setting in bios... AHCI, ATA, RAID, etc.

  No main device in the bios.

  I used acronis to move my data to the drive, so I know it works.

  Any ideas?

  I had the same problem with a Latitude E6510 (with the latest version of the bios).  I put an SSD Intel inside and I couldn't get it recognized in the installation of Windows 7, or Knoppix CD.

  It turned out that I had not physically connected it properly.  The Intel SSD is much thinner than the SATA drive that I replaced.  If you simply slide into the slot of the chassis, it is possible that it the data connectors will not touch correctly, but instead overlap.  The first indication that something was wrong was when I went to screw the 4 screws that fix the HDD in the chassis and the 2 screws on the side of data connector were not long enough to fix (this is because the hard drive was armed downwards at an angle, pushing the holes more than they should have been).  I just left out and start the computer, and it was then that I was living the problem mentioned above.

  To resolve this problem, I took a good peek inside the slot of the drive to understand where data connectors should get in touch.  I returned the laptop so that gravity would help in line as I inserted it more closely the SSD.  This time, he seems to slide in deeper, and all 4 screws were closed this time.

• Intel SSD 750 series

  In a moment of weakness I just bought an Intel SSD series 750 800 GB HHHL (SSDPEDMW800G4x1), mainly due to a decline in prices of $100 (i.e. CDN $729) CDN.

  I was looking to replace a rest of spinning by car, but find myself questioning this decision as the 750 series write speed is specified only 800 MB/s, which is much slower than my Samsung 950 Pro m2 (1527 MB/s) and the four Samsung 850 Pro in a Raid 0 configuration (1833 MB/s).

  However, I can live with the read speed of the 750 that is specified to 2000 MB/s.

  The idea is to use the SSD 750 instead of the current system SSD drive and use it for various no video and image data, which is currently on a HARD drive.

  My quandry, should I return the Intel SSD 750 (have'nt opened the package yet) and wait for a more rapid decline in prices of PCIe version, or am I being too critical...

  Anyone here using this drive and what are your impressions?

  What I wanted, it was speed cache, it is to say when the cache handles all the instructions of reading and writing for reader requests gives significantly better performance because the ram is much faster than the disks or sata controllers. This performance is normally called gust or peak transfer rates. Once the cache fills well performance begins to normalize that the sata controller can manage ideally. The drive itself also limits this based on the speed and latency the reader can process these requests queued. More it takes to completely fill the cache over the drive or raid maintains the burst transfer rate. Once the cache fills although transfer rates begin to fall. 8 GB cache is standard for most of the highend SAS controllers and gives you an excellent performance for the raid because raid instructions are stored in the cache and manipulated in real time of the RAM of the system or the disc. This allows the controller handle tasks as fast as possible without waiting on disks to provide more data or be ready for more data to write.

  SSD drives will slow down over time of writing and deletion to allocate their share files. This is due to how the SSD firmware avoid writing permanent erase cycles. You can return an SSD performance unprecedented in formatting or by writing zeros for it. When using the SSD for media raids, it becomes a standard maintenance process, you want to do periodically.

• How can I determine which Intel SSD is compatible with my MacBook PRo mid-2012?

  I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch Mid 2012 (not retina) and I need to upgrade my hard drive to an SSD. I've seen several like Intel s 540 and 750 series and a Crucial MX SSD. However, I am trying to identify the one which would be compatible and the best alternative for my upgrade. I appreciate the help. Thank you.

  SSD:

  MX200 essential 500 GB SATA 6 GB/s 2.5 "

  Intel SSD 540 s series 480GB 2.5 "SATA 6 Gb/s, 16nm, TLC

  Intel SSD 750 series (400 GB 1/2 height PCle 3.0, 20nm, MLC)

  Your Mac has a SATA interface, so the PCIe model is not compatible, I would choose most of the three.

• Display satellite C50-A546 cards how to switch between NVIDIA and INTEL?

  Hello

  The Intel graphics chip, which is part of the central unit should be used for low performance applications, because it allows you to save energy and reduce the internal temperature.

  For best performance while game, it s advisable to use the external GPU (nVidia or AMD)
  This setting can be changed in the nVidia control panel s

  Here, you should choose manage them 3D settings (can be found on the left in the nVidia control panel)

  Now in the main window, you will find two global settings and program parameters tabs
  In the program settings tab, select the (game) program that needs to use the nVIdia GPU

  If it is not listed, click the Add button
  Then choose the graphic processor preferred for this program (generally must be nVidia processor high performance)

  Last but no less, in this program-specific settings, you can assign additional features to improve performance.

• Black 700 & Intel SSD 1 TB

  Hello

  can I use this double-sided m.2 ssd? SSDSCKKW010X6X1 INTEL SSD 540 s series

  Anyone have experiences? Anyone know an alternative for a 1 TB SSD?

  I now 256Go and her pups.

  Thank you and best regards

  Hi, I have build in the X 400 1 TB. So yes, its possible.

  In any case, the manual is useless because the Interior is different - fortunally easier. It just open, remove the cables to display, modify SSDS, connect the cables in display, close, ready.

  BUT: there is a big thick sticker everywhere in all other rooms. I have not tried to remove the battery. I just (accidentally) removed a small part to realize that this is not a good idea and realize that the layout is different.

  So far, everything works fine. If I have the problem, I'll tell you.

• HP Pavilion Notebook 15-199sa: can I install more RAM and an SSD at the same time?

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion Notebook 15-p199sa I would like to be updated by installing an additional 8 GB of RAM and an SSD.

  I could do both at the same time, or it would be more advisable to do one at a time?

  Usually, I'd do one at a time, but take it apart the laptop and remove the motherboard are quite a job! I have a Ph D in breaking things and I know that if I take the laptop part twice then nothing good will come of it.

  I was considering also put the current HARD disk in the optical drive, but somewhere in the 20 pages of comments to this thread deals UK it is written the header on the motherboard for the DVD player is only SATA I - someone has a I experience to put a HDD in SATA optical drive? (or did someone knows if the header is really SATA I - the manual does not say).

  Otherwise, I could put the existing 1.5 TB of HARD drive in an external enclosure and connect it to a USB 3.0 port. The manual says to connect external drives to these ports is OK but it does not have all the features - would it be a good idea to use a powered USB 3.0 hub or a powered external case? (rather than using the bus power).

  Uh, that's all for now, I think

  John latter

  Hello

  Nothing prevents you to do both at the same time. I have half a dozen old records HARD in USB 3.0, USB 2.0 external enclosures and they work fine. They work on all of my laptops and more comfort than those who have power supplies (much smaller than now).

  Kind regards.
