What is the interface on my Alienware Laptop, M17xR3?

I want to buy and install Crucial MX200 SSD m2.

And I found 1 port resembles m2 located under the keyboard near the ram slots.

Please help me identify this crack in the picture.

There 'Jetty' sign.

Hi, Sehri, the laptop in this photo looks like a M17xR3 or M17xR4.

If so the slot if you watch is a feature that allows for WiDi - to your to transmit Wireless HD video from your laptop to a monitor active WiDi or a TV.

I found a glaring issue in the official Dell Alienware owners manual for M17xR4 model, there is no mention of a player mSATA or housing unit, which is a little funny that I sold at least 100 units of this model, all with cache mSATA startup disks

You do not have a location for a disc mSATA hard, BUT ONLY in THE MODEL of M17xR4, that is there is positioned under the palmrest to halfway between the bottom of the keyboard and front speaker/light grill, the LCD screen and the palm rest must be removed for access to the installation.

M2 technology was not around when the M17xR4 was not so sure, weather, you will get a standard mSATA performance gain to M.2 mSATA, just be sure to get one that has the correct interface issues pins

M.2 mSATA (unsuitable) - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Samsung-850-EVO-250GB-M-2-Solid-State-Drive-/111647286503?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_77&hash=item19feb264e7

This also applies to the Alienware

    Can somone tell me when the variable customerSession below will be initiated in the CustomerSessionClient class below.

    It will never be initialized.

    When I run theCustomerSessionClient (main method) in my netbeans environment customerSession is always null?

    I agree.

    It is just a command line client. It does not execute in an EJB container, so the @EJB annotation never takes effect.

    Here's a Visual.

    Thank you.

    Hello andrew8blue,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I saw your picture and read your thread. The cable is not a replaceable part. You might have to replace the whole motherboard if the HARD drive does not work.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

  • Re: What is the latest driver for my laptop L300D?

    I have a laptop L300D PSLC0E 32-bit with a Radeon X 1250 graphics card running Windows 7 Pro.
    When I check in the Device Manager I see that my graphics driver is listed as v.8.593.100.0 dated 10/02/10
    If I check the download from Toshiba site they show dated v.8.593.100.5 from 27/10/09?
    How a driver later may have an earlier date?
    Who is current please?

    > When I check in the Device Manager, I see that my graphics driver...
    And where is your driver? Have you installed your driver of the Toshiba download page?

    In General, Toshiba still offers newer drivers and functional if your driver is Toshiba it's OK.

    SATA III (or 3) is backward compatible. No problem at all. But if you want to know, you can check yourself by using the following small program (look for the disk controller):

  • What is the best processor for my laptop?

    Hello!

    I am owner of a N200 (0769 BAG) with a Pentium Dual Core T2310 processor.  I expanded the RAM to 4 GB it can handle, but I always miss the power I need for virtualization under Linux 64 Bits.

    So I intend to change the processor to have:

    (1) one with integrated virtualization instructions

    (2) the most powerful available on my motherboard that will work with my real 4 GB memory... (Corsair DDR2 modules 2 GB 667 MHz)

    ((3) consumption slightly more low power as possible in order to amirouche cool the laptop and the battery last more than a couple of minutes...)

    Thank you very much in advance for your answer!

    Click here

    At the top you will see the processor [not a real processor but a representation]. He says he supports 533 MHz or 800 MHz FSB. Also, it supports 667 MHz FSB but is not displayed. Your processor will work in your memory at 667 MHz and 800 MHz FSB. If the speed of the memory is the limiting factor, there is nothing you can do. GM965 chipset only supports maximum memory 667 MHz.

  • What is the power SUPPLY to Alienware x 51 and what graphics card can go to?

    I think the gtx 660 or r9 270

    You can switch to a wide range of GPU if you get 330w POWER supply, and no, 16 GB of RAM will not use it a lot of power.

    -GTX 660 (ti)

    -GTX 670 / 760 GTX ti

    -270 R9 (x)

    -HD 7870

    -GTX 760

    -970 GTX (need to) (R2 power board)

    -980 GTX (need to) (R2 power board)

    -960 GTX (should work just fine)

    Anything can be corrupted on your MacBook Pro, but from what you say, it seems that the cable drive/SSD/flash memory/SATA hard was seriously damaged. Him "question mark" means that your Mac is unable to find any bootable device, meaning that it does not yet detect your OS X drive.

    You should make a backup of your files (if you can still do it) and take the Mac at the Apple Store or dealer to get a diagnosis. There may be several damaged parts.

  • ThinkPad E420 - what is the type of this laptop SATA interface? Is this 2 SATA or SATA 3?

    Dear all,

    What is the type of interface SATA of ThinkPad E420? Is this 3 SATA or SATA 2?

    I noticed that this laptop hard drive transfer rate is 3 Gb/s, which means that it is a SATA 2 HARD drive, isn't it? It also means that the laptop SATA interface is SATA 2?

    I tried searching the support site and product from lenovo for this information, but I can't.

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Haris

    You're right, the E420 is SATA2.

    SATA3 is very rare in the laptops!

    Hello guys,.

    I usually clean my Alienware laptop with a damp cloth, but I want to know what kind of product can I use to clean and what kind o that I should not use.

    I do not recommend using any type of cleaner. Wet a cloth microfiber with SOAP and warm water, squeeze it well, then gently wipe the palmrest and chassis. This should be done every day.
