Y580 - do I have to install a 256GB SSD mSata instead of the 32 GB one?

Hello

I bought a Y580 with 750 + 32 GB SSD. I want to buy a Crucial M4 SSD mSATA and install it in place of the 32 GB one.

Should what additional things I do this? Should I just covers or padding for her? Will it screw? In addition, it would be possible for my to install a new copy of Windows 7 on SSD?

Would be really helpful if someone who's done this before post some links to the material I need.

Thank you!

For the size of the screws, refer to this topic

I'm not sure but I think that all the msata ssd are not the same size.
For the installation of OS on ssd there was no problem because the size of the ssd 256 GB, which should be more than enough.
Just to make a note, I want you to know that you can make use of the 32 GB ssd so by merging both the ssd and HDD by using fast disk. For this, you need to install the os on the ssd and join the readers. Read this document for more information

    Looking for the location of your catalog in the menu help > system information. It's all the folder containing the database file catalog.pse14db.

    It's easy to synchronize your catalog...

    But...

    Even if the media folder tree has the same structure, which does not work and all your files will be displayed as "offline" in the catalog synchronized. The reason is that the catalogue in computer stores the location of the media files by the full path AND the identification of the drive (internal serial number). The synchronized catalog will not find files on computer B.

    So, what would be your choice?

    -Store your multimedia files on an external drive and plug it alternately on both computers. No need to synchronize media files; You can even save the catalog on the external drive, no need to synchronize the catalog folder either. Downside: who does not act as a backup. You can use your sync as a simple backup to restore in the drive of origin if necessary.

    -According to John R Ellis, you can assign the same serial number for both drives.

    psedbtool (database of the elements of Photoshop tool)

    I have not tested this, but it should work.

    -The good old method of backup and restore, forgetting the 'sync' is slow, but much more secure (you have two copies over a backup). The HUGE advantage is that you can easily migrate to another computer and still another version of elements, even another OS.

    -My own solution requires some fiddling with the sqlite database and a good understanding of the structure of the database. I have syncs media and catalog or via Synctoy Windows files on an external drive. I create a copy of the catalog I have change in sqlite to point to the serial number of the external drive. The catalogue of the external drive and media are available to any computer with the same version of elements. The advantage of the 'synctoy' method is that it is much easier and faster than an incremental backup in the Organizer.

  • Can I install Vcenter 5.1 NEW, instead of the upgrade to 4.1

    Is there an obvious reason, what I should just install Virtual Center new, rather than update my version 4.1?

    I believe that I can just install it again, then remove my the old virtual ESX hosts and attach them to the new one, right? What exactly would I lose by doing this? I guess I'm wasting all the performance statistics, but maybe I don't really like of things about it.

    There are two reasons I want to do. Tell me what you think:

    1. it is much easier to build a new Windows Server and install Virtual Center 5.1 (and all additional components), without having to fear that I have will become in the middle of things, be an error to occur, and I can not get easily that works again.

    2. we took the Virtual Center on SQL Server database right now, and I would like to move this to Oracle, because our MSSQL Server is virtualized, and we get into situations where it is not simple to get Virtual Center runs again. For example, when the MSSQL Server is patched and restarted, which occurs several times a year. Virtual Center then stops working. Yes, this isn't all that hard to solve, but it's boring. If we move the database for Oracle on Linux, NOT on VMWare, then this problem disappears. There are a few minor reasons, too.

    So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of doing this? I hope I can get some good advice on this. Thank you.

  • I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) and now my wireless does not work.

    Hi, I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (dell insparon) 1525 and now my wireless does not work. ive tried re installing driver, but it says operating system not supported. I used the disc that came with the computer of the re install and I even tried to install service pack 1. .

    original title: Wireless problems after install.

    I just tried both, the dell is one that says OS not supported"and the intel, it went very well, but my 'network controller' still have a yellow top thing in Device Manager. and I always wireless. any other ideas? Thank you for the help

    Question...  You have whatever it is listed in the "Network adapters" section of "Device Manager" now?

    While ensuring that the exclamation point is not for your wired network device (plausible) or bluetooth (plausible) and you just need to configure your wireless network to connect to * your * wireless network now.

    You may have to contact Dell to see why none of their drivers receive your wireless device works on the original operating system, what they included.  This could be a hardware problem PURE.

  • Do I have to re install Windows 7 Ultimate Retail Version over the current version of Windows 7 Ultimate OEM "Trial"?

    I have an old PC which worked fine with Windows XP on it. I wanted to continue to consider using it with Windows 7 (instead of buying a new machine).

    So my friend gave me a copy of the version of Windows 7 Ultimate (OEM) to try to see if the machine was worth keeping (i.e. good performance with my critical apps loaded on this subject).  Using this version, I was able to switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 using a clean installation. I have re-installed critical applications to check performance with the new operating system.  I was impressed (and happy) so I decided to purchase a licensed copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. I finally found a great offer and bought a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate (Full/Retail - not OEM) with the required activation key via the Internet (to be delivered next week).

    My question is: since I now have the version of Windows 7 Ultimate (OEM) already installed on my machine, I will have to perform another clean installation when my Windows 7 Ultimate retail version coming? I would really not all over again. I would like to simply enter the Activation Code of the version of Windows 7 Ultimate (Full-detail) when it arrives. What is the best way to reach my goal?

  • How to install a bootable SSD blank OSX

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Macbook Pro mid 2012. He has a regular hard drive 500 GB. I just bought a new SSD 250. It's a Samsung, so I have to install windows inside in order to apply the new Firmware... no problem.

    Now...

    (1) how can I install Mac OSX in the new Virgin SSD? the disc will be placed in the logic board to have the best speed.

    (2) can I access all my files later to the old 500 GB hd which will have all my files in the optical Bay? I mean I don't know if a HD that has used to have the os x installed can be as easy as a regular external HD access. I'm not sure I'm clear with this question. I don't want to lost all my previous files.

    Thanks for your help :-)

    I have the same PBM and just the SSD even have improved. I used "Carbon Copy Cloner App" to clone my hard drive of origin-for the new SSD.

    I use a 'USB to Sata' adapter to fix my SSD on the MBP, so I could clone the HDD.

    After you install the new SSD and load the operating system. You will need enable the 'trim' for your Samsung SSD support.

    Open "terminal app" and enter this command: "sudo trimforce activate" then select YES, then YES again... reboot when finished.
