Want to 13d061sa: the HP Envy 13d061sa SSD upgrade

I have a HP Envy 13d061sa, laptop 13.3 inch with 256 GB SSD drive. I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade to 1 TB drive. Also is it extensible owner?

Thank you

It is not a replaceable part by the user, so no, not owner replaceable, unless the owner didn't mind accepting complete responsibility for the damage done to the laptop.

Ensure that you buy the right type of SSD for your notebook. I would say a 512 GB is probably a bertter option.

A video at the following library shows how to replace the SSD.

    Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03733656

    Any good brand of 2.5-inch SSD SATA 7mm thick will be good. SATA3 is reverse compatible with SATA2, so need to bother in this regard. Your laptop has HM87 Intel chipset board, so probably there SATA2 or 3.

    SAMSUNG SSD of 850 Evo is very good. It is SATA3.

    Cloning disk SSD before replacement using the manufacturers Web site migration tools is a good option. I used the Samsung migration tool for my laptop Pavilion 15.

  • the T5500 to an SSD upgrade

    Hello

    I just bought a T5500, he came with the C2 SATA all drives, no RAID, 2 total configuration of the disk and I think that the integrated Intel chipset SATA 3.0 GB/s controller. I would like to improve it with an SSD with SATA 6 Gbps. Reading other forums, I think I need a different controller but that is all I have to do this work. I also saw that I needed to take a few steps in the BIOS and windows 7 to adequately use the SSD as boot drive.  Does anyone have experience with this type of upgrade?  Thanks in advance!

    The Intel SATA controller on the system is blocked to 3.0 GB/s - you can only make it any faster. However, you can get something like this:

    http://www.automatedwebhosting.NET/product_info.php?products_id=117105

    You can use an SSD with this speed. And since it will unload the controller to use a PCI-e card you could leave your RAID in place.

    It doesn't matter if you do or not, you need to set your SATA controller in AHCI mode in the BIOS. I've never had to do it on a T5500 so I can't tell where exactly it would be in the BIOS but it is usually under 'Storage' or 'Storage controllers.'

    Back up your data first course of a RAID on an AHCI (or do both at once) will require you to reinstall Windows. So make sure that you have all copied a safe place off the coast of the Precision Workstation before you do. See updates section to see if your BIOS has an update. Later one for this system was released on 16/05/2011, version A09

    Hope this helps, let us know if you need additional assistance. I want to clarify for the record that I did this upgrade to a T5500 but you have installed SSD on several other Dell systems & some custom systems.

  • The CQ60 430SA with SSD upgrade

    Hello

    After much trawling the internet and various research I hope someone can help me to confirm if I can finish the next upgrade.

    I have a CQ60-430SA Windows 7 Professional 64 bit stock, with 4 GB of RAM, AMD Turion x 2 64-bit processor (VERY hot) and in recent months have gone through various scans of the system in order to limit start them all programs, Windows updates and various other background programs that made the laptop almost completely insensitive.

    He is now back some of its speed of origin but I always find it very laggy and hesitate to open programs, etc..  After reading on the SSD and performance increases that they can bring can tell me if I can replace the Toshiba MK2555GSX ATA HDD currently installed with an evo of 840 Samsung 256 Gb SSD?  I have also reviewed the upgrade of processor Turion Ultra ZM-82, I know to be compatible from the manual of maintenance (below), but are not convinced that he will give me a huge increase in performance (any thoughts?)

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

    If I can replace the hard drive with an SSD I also remove the laptop and replace the thermal paste on the processor (already cleaned the fan).  The laptop also needs a battery and external battery to replace.

    Thank you very much in advance for any advice given.

  • Need information on the ISO of Windows 7 upgrade

    Hi all

    I have Windows 7 Upgrade key and I want to download the ISO of Windows 7 Upgrade. But it seems that all responses are directed to the location of Digital River that no longer exists. Instead, this Web page are asked to visit the https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery page.

    And when I use this address, connection just times out with Error 502 server.

    Someone know where I can get the upgrade of ISOs?

    Thank you

    Jack

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  • Envy dv7t-7200: SSD upgrade in 2nd slot on HP Envy dv7t-7200. Cannot find or run the Bios

    So I added recently internal a second drive in my HP Envy dv7t-7200 because she had a second slot. The first was a 1 TB HARD drive and what I added is a compatible 500 GB SSD from Crucial. At startup, the SSD was not recognized as I can't find anywhere in my computer to use. Also, I tried to go into the BIOS to see if the second part of the motherboard to the drive 2nd spot has been activated but now the computer starts too fast and I can't enter the BIOS. Given that nothing is installed on disk 2, I have no idea why the computer starts much faster. Would it be due a QuickLaunch for the BIOS update can I have recently installed? If so, how to uninstall that?

    I also wanted to just insisted on my laptop as possible and that's why I decided to upgrade, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    A new empty ssd drive will not be displayed in my computer (PC), until the disk is initialized and formatted. Right-click on computer and choose manage... disk management and see if there is a new blank disc. If so create a new volume in it (partition) then format then assign a drive letter.

    You want to have the OS on the SSD and have it in the main location as only a car in this slot is bootable. You lose the speed of the SSD in the second location for pure storage. As hanging Secretariat up to a plow.

    Hi all!

    So, I read in this forum on this subject and have seen mixed results.  I bought this computer a few years ago, generally pretty happy with it but I ran out of space and the battery is dying.  I am trying to decide whether to revise it or buy new.   That's what I want to do:

    Add 2nd mSATA SSD in the second slot.  I saw a post like this HD is compatible but that's a post.  Around, I've read that others have had problems by adding a second SSD.  Some people can not access, some people, it shows only a 128 GB extra, in fact, some have a BSOD.   The post I saw replaced the original disc to help one of them and adding a second drive so the two HDs were of the same brand.  Is it a better idea?  Also, all the posts I've seen on this topic were two years old and dealt with Windows 7.  Windows 10 it will make it harder to do?

    If not I can try and use the same car with the model came in the second slot to help in possible compatibility issues, but I would be limited to a 128 GB extra (or possibly 256?).

    I have a MBP of 2009 end. I updated the material to 8 GB of ram with an SSD of 240gig. I want to run the new OSX, but is not on the list approved for the update. Anyone know why?

    It is a decision that was made by Apple.  El Capitan is the newest OSX that will support a 2009 MBP.

    This is not uncommon.  My 2006 MBP came with Tiger, but is limited to OSX Snow Leopard.

    Old hardware ends up by becoming obsolete with newer technology.

    You can upgrade to an SSD.

    The simplest method is to use an SSD as the Corsair Force 3 and don't forget that you buy the kit of migration.

    The migration kit comes with cloning software and a usb to SATA power cable that connects again SSD.

    It is recommended that you purchase and SSD that is approximately 256 GB in quality if you can find one that is affordable.

  • HP Envy 13-d001no: upgrade SSD on a new HP Envy 13 m2

    Hello!

    I just got my HP Envy 13-d001no. As I expected I really enjoy them until now, but I am interested the upgrade to a faster SSD with more storage on this subject. I'm looking at two different drives, namely the Samsung 850 EVO m2 and the Samsung PRO 950 m2. Both drives are m2 (2280) form factor, but they differ in that the EVO 850 uses a SATA 6.0 Gbit/s-interface while the PRO 950 has a PCIe interface.

    I am not fully aware of the differences between these interfaces. I know that PCIe allows faster speeds, but they are both compatible with the new HP Envy 13? I find anywhere which interface is the exact shape of the SSD factor currently installed and I don't want to take the risk of buying a new drive only for him is not to adapt or not to work on the laptop.

    According to the HP ENVY laptop (model numbers used: 13-d000 through 13-d099)-Maintenance and Service Guide of, this model supports the following:

    SSD drive
    Serial ATA M2 storage
    Support for the following SSD drive configurations:
    512 MB M2, SATA-3, support triple cell level (TLC)
    256 MB M2, SATA-3, support the TLC
    128 MB, M2, SATA-3, support the TLC
    128 MB, M2.2280, SATA-3

    On this basis, it would seem that the Samsung 850 EVO m2 is the correct upgrade for your computer.

  • SSD upgrade/migrate inside 23 tilt of HP Envy TouchSmart?

    (model: 23-k001hk all-in-One)

    Hello all - asking for suggestions advice from wise and kind people on the best way - and operating instructions - for upgrading the speed of my current hdisk 1 TB + SSD 16 GB cache scheme of HP storage by one of these itineraries:

    1) upgrade the disk installed cache 16 GB SSD mSATA disk (limit Intel RST) 64 GB mSATA

    Why: I update regularly a slap (10-15GB) of data from the Agency.

    so given that the daily volume of modified files is comparable to 16 GB,

    I'm assuming that a larger cache will actually add value

    (2) install an SSD 'broad' to serve the main startup disk by replacing

    the existing hdisk of 1 TB (I use a tiny fraction of it) with a 2.5 SSD "

    with a suitable support (and deleting or disabling the 16 GB SSD disk cache)

    Thanks in advance for any advice on this point, HP does not have any information on that, nor any obvious way to access or review the settings of the RST (firmware?) used in their SSDcache + hDisk arrangement (Yes, tried Ctrl-I, the boot, etc.-no joy).

    -Rob in Hong Kong

    Hi WAWood,

    A late thank you for your advice. Based on this feedback and having discovered just that software ExpressCache 'hidden' on my system quietly stopped working after the upgrade to Windows 10 (and HP support does not currently have updated software ExpressCache for Windows 10), I decided to install a large SSD drive and use it as a boot drive.

    In the this could help other all-in-One HP Envy owners tilt, here is a summary of the steps that worked with obvious disclaimers that even if it worked for me, it is not a 'universal' solution and also that if you mess with the hardware/software of your system, you are of course on your own, without guarantees or responsibility for this author) :

    (also, my apologies for the format - in a hurry)

    System:

    HP Envy tilt (23-k001h model) running Windows 10

    Basic purpose:

    Change the original storage configuration:

    Hdisk (boot drive) 1 TB + 16 GB mSATA SSD cache ("linked" to the hdisk via ExpressCache)

    TO:

    Hdisk (spare drive) 1 TB + new Samsung Evo 850 mSATA SSD 500 GB (as boot drive)

    Result

    Many, many "zippier" system: QuickStart, app launch, etc..

    Measures

    Disable ExpressCache

    (HP Envy models tilt seem to use this supplement Windows 3 rd-party, instead of Intel RST):

    In my case, as my recent visit to Windows 10 has taken care of this for me (haha), I don't have to do;  Otherwise, I guess we should stop the ExpressCache service, uninstall the software from ExpressCache and/or drivers, then reboot - suggest you only look it up in the forums, because I can't offer my own experience on this one.

    Clear/unloading as much unnecessary data from drive C: (1 TB hdisk) as possible.

    The goal would be to have used space on C: be greatly below your 500 GB (or other) new drive (in my case, I cut the used space on the C: 100 GB).

    Also a good idea to run the defrag Windows on C:, as may be useful (necessary?) for the reduction of this partition in the next step

    Disk management Windows allows you to shrink the Windows partition (mapped as C

    Goal: you want a net size of all partitions on hdisk (Windows + hidden/recovery/system partitions) to be a little less than the actual size of your new SSD (my "500 GB" SSD was actually more as 465 GB)

    Warning: disk management can claim "not enough space" to shrink Windows (C when it's clearly not partition so - in my case, the problem was due to my Windows partition is not the last partition on the disk before the unallocated space (if any) - obviously this disrupts the management of disks.)  If so, you need to move partitions using a 3rd party soft as AOMEI (free app - has worked well for me) all for the Windows partition is the last partition on the hdisk, with unallocated space located immediately after the Windows partition.

    Result: when the dust settles, the partitions allocated on your hdisk must have a net size which is comfortably at less than the actual capacity of your new SSD (in my case, the partitions was 440 GB on a capacity 465 GB SSD).

    Physics card mSATA SSD upgrade

    • Power PC, unplug from the mains and remove the rear plastic cover:

  • Remove the metal shield covering the RAM:
  • Remove the metal shield covering the motherboard:
    • Locate/remove the 3 screws holding it down.
    • Lift on board as possible shielding at the booth of PC;
  • Locate the SSD of origin (see tiny map labeled as SanDisk or some of these) and remove 2 tiny screws to attach to the motherboard.
  • While keeping you constantly connected to the Earth (strap, touch metal chassis, etc.):
    • gently remove original SSD and save it in some static container (if upgrade fails and you want to restore the system to the original state of the material)
    • Gently insert the new card in lateral connector mSATA SSD,
    • and to the motherboard with the same 2 live
  • Replace the motherboard of armour, armour of RAM and plastic cover
  • Check the new SSD 'visible' to the BIOS:

    At first startup, use ESC to enter the BIOS settings, then check that BIOS 'sees' the new SSD as the original hdisk

    Clone all partitions on hdisk--> new SSD

    Start & connect to Windows and use Macrium Reflect (free) to clone all the partitions on hdisk for the new SSD - see large portico advice to:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/199068/how-to-upgrade-your-existing-hard-drive-in-under-an-hour/

    Do not forget:

    • Suggestion from the link above, you must first a Macrium recovery disk
    • You can clone * all * the partitions on the SSD's original hdisk

    Result: cloned partitions now visible on new SSD. may have little extra/no allocated space on SSD (can deal with that later)

    In the BIOS change the boot to new SSD drive

    Reboot PC, press ESC to enter the BIOS to change the boot order:

    • make the first boot drive in SSD
    • also suggest to disable booting from originals hdisk (night before you really start SSD)
    • Save the BIOS settings and exit the BIOS

    Make sure that you have started of SSD and clean the unwanted drive mappings

    Start & log Windows

    (the fact that you can reach this point means that you have passed the first test)

    Use Windows Disk Manager to

    * ensure that C: is mapped to your new SSD.

    * make sure that you can still see original hdisk, too

    * suggest remove you mappings of unnecessary letters drive

    (with the exception of the C: drive!) for all other partitions on hdisk or SSD

    Test through full reboot

    As a further test, do a reboot of Windows to make sure there are no problems with the start-up of SSD; again, once in Windows, use disk management to check again once your C: drive is the partition on the new SSD

    Optimizing Windows SSD

    There are several Windows setting changes that you should do when your primary/boot disk is an SSD, either:

    • If you have purchased a Samsung SSD, you can download/use their app "Samsung magician" to do so (see "Optimization of OS" section), or
    • Google "Optimizing windows 10 ssd" to find any number of guides to achieve this, such as:
    • Note: one of the most important changes are those related to mode AHCI (ability to GARNISH)
    • Note: some suggested parameters cannot be 100% essential, for example:
      • pagefile on SSD: some authors suggest no page on the DSS file, others say "keep" small'(?) "; most compelling advice I've seen are to retain the page file on the SSD, but let Windows manage the size; in all cases, should make sure that your system has * sufficient * RAM (8 GB and more) for your usage requirements.
      • 'leave free space' (aka overprovisioning): SSD experts suggest that current-technology SSDS, it is not necessary
      • "do not defrag": 10 Windows recognizes SSD and disable defrag automatically

    All the problems?

    Note that at this point, you still have your original hdisk with windows/data for a few days, so if this migration does not work, you can always go back by turning off the SSD and change the startup disk (in BIOS) originally hdisk

    After a few days: some cleaning

    When you are reasonably comfortable that your system is booting from SSD and Windows/apps work correctly, you can perform the following operations:

    • Use Macrium Reflect (free) or similar to save a snapshot of your current partition SSD
    • After the backup, delete old/unnecessary partitions on original hdisk. For some, drive management works; others may need to resort to using the command line program Admin "diskpart" (read the instructions carefully!) and use "Delete Partition Override" (be very sure that you have selected a partition on the * original hdisk * (IE, 'old'))
    • Disk management allows you to create a new simple volume on hdisk original now empty, as a reader of alternative utility
    • Regular backup of SSD Annex: SSDS, as with mechanical parts, will fail - it's only a matter of time. It 's going to happen. Thus, strongly suggest that you configure regular (daily) snapshots of your SSD partitions. Again, I use Macrium Reflect to do this with a full backup weekly + differential daily backups and save the images in the now empty original hdisk in the PC
    • If your SSD has any sense space not allocated, you may want to expand the Windows partition on the SSD drive use disk management to make use of this space

  • GeForce GTX 770 runs on the HP Envy Phoenix 810SE?

    I am considering buying the HP Envy Phoenix 810SE and I want to configure it with the i7 - 4930K (optional) Hexacore and 2 GB of Nvidia GeForce GTX (optional) 770. However, the power of this model is only a low 500 watts - however the recommended minimum power for the 770 according to Nvidia GTX is 600 Watts it consumes typical of 230 watts.

    My question is how this platform may run the card at all?

    I mean I'll take Hexacore i7 - 4930K which consumes 105 watt just by itself, add in 2 hdd (35 watt) as well as a dvd player + motherboard and memory. I don't see how this configuration may work.

    Any thoughts?

    Hello

    power max is just what components are going to shoot when they are maxxed out.

    You can get away with running this solution, but if the execution of some heavy games can draw more power than the system can handle.

    If this is the case, you may need to upgrade the power supply.

    on the drives, you can run an SSD that will consume less energy than your spinning disks.

Maybe you are looking for
