  Hello

  I replaced my HDD with a SSD, and when I run the Samsung software it say I should use AHCI instead of IDE.

  Is this the right place?

  Can I change IDE to AHCI without damaging my installation of the system in other words will my work PC after that I changed without reinstalling?

• Pavillion 6143 sc need for my SSD AHCI

  Installed a SSD but need AHCI to get better performance. Is this possible or is my computer too old

  Hello:

  Even if your PC is out on the market in July 2009 (AHCI was available), the card mother HP used in your model has a chipset that was developed before the introduction of AHCI.

  Hydrogen peroxide used this motherboard for many years.

  Unfortunately, there is no way to activate the AHCI on your model.

  The only downside to not having AHCI, it's that your SSD will not be able to use the TRIM function.

• HP Envy sleekbook: regarding the disk cache 32 GB ssd on my sleekbook 4-1130us

  In the process of upgrading my desire 4 to see if I can get a few years out of it.  Have already updated to Win10, and the anniversary, update seems to work ok.

  Have read many posts to discussion on users unable to work the raid configuration after upgrade to win 10.

  My updates consist of the following:

  Thank you all for your contributions.

  SATA AHCI =. The magician of Samsung has problems with the storage RAID controller. Think that's not AHCI, but it is. As you can see, the SSDS works very well.  The RAID is compatible with all the stuff SSD AHCI as GARNISH and NCQ works very well.

• dc7800 convertible minitower & SSD?

  I'm the proud recipient of a mini-tower that our society surplussed dc7800 convertible.

  It is running Vista Business 32-bit.  Intel Core 2 Duo E6750.

  I'm no expert on the SSD, but everything I read says that the PC must be in mode for one SSD AHCI function properly.

  I downloaded the Service (identified as c01155726.pdf) reference for the dc7800 Guide.  On page 7, he says there are two modes of emulation of SATA: IDE & RAID.  I searched but couldn't find any reference on AHCI.

  Can anyone tell me for sure if my plot to replace the mechanical HARD drive with an SSD is doomed to failure?

  Hey, there, Travis!

  I apologize.  I threw too much info out there all at once, and my lengthy post was not very organized.

  I did get the disks to install 64 bit, but only to the OEM 160 GB of HARD drive.  I then tried the disks in 64-bit on the WD 1 TB on the chance that disconnect the PS/2 devices is finally allowing success, use only not the puny OEM drive.  But that has failed.

  There are a few things we can say with certainty:

  -Passage of the BIOS RAID (mono-disque AHCI) did not cause the Red death (RSOD) screen because I finally got a successful installation even though I had spent IDE RAID.

  -Use of the disks in 64-bit isn't the problem either.

  After that, I can't really say for sure, but it seems to me that:

  -Disconnect the input devices non - OEM PS/2 was not the key to the success because I did it with the OEM 160 GB HDD, and with the 1 TB HDD, but only had success with the 160.

  -The HP recovery disks only works with the drive OEM, or one so similar that they cannot make a difference.  If that's true, it's really lame.

  Anyway, after finally getting Vista installed, I went in the Vista management tools and asked him to shrink the C: drive.  She was ready to reduce the partition to about half the original size.

  Then I started from the Mint 13 64-bit disk and manually configure partitions.  I was a little nervous because recovery HP placed disks a primary partition "HP tools" at the end of the training, so that the currency would be removed between the Vista partition and the partition "HP Tools.

  But it went well.  I get the screen of the GRUB bootloader to start and can go two bones.

  Success at long last or partial success in any case.  I have 64-bit Windows & Linux.  And AHCI, so that the Kingwin KF-253-BK-exchangeable hot rack works.  It would have been great to move the Group towards a bigger drive, but it works.

  Thanks for your help.  I hope that someone will be able to use it.

• Aurora R4 - adding an SSD with RAID 0 HHDs

  I have a R4 Aurora with stock HHDs in a RAID 0 configuration.  I'm not ready to replace the HHDs as MBR disks, but I want to add the SSD in an empty Bay.  After reading the forum several messages a BIOS setting must be in for the SSD AHCI mode to be recognized (?)  What about my existing disks RAID?

  Andrew

  Hey morkunas,.

  If you changed the BIOS to AHCI, you would effectively disable the RAID of the two hard drives. Once completed, you could then install Windows for the SSD, where Windows pourrait see the file system of the DESCENT, but you would not be able to start it until you changed the BIOS to RAID. But in doing so, you will not start your SSD.

  Having never tried it I can't swear that it wouldn't work - but you could in theory, depending on your RAID controller, install the SSD as a storage drive. In this way, that the RAID would not try to link the SSD to what either which means that you can use it as a blank storage device. Which could be beneficial to you, you can create symbolic links to any games that you move to get the advantage of fast SSD ultra charge time.

  But there is no guarantee on this. And, if by chance, your RAID is set to 0 + 1 without your knowledge, it strives to transform your SSD in a parity drive. In other words, a backup drive for if & when the RAID had to be reconstructed. You can look in your BIOS to see what level of RAID.

  Most of the people don't generally mess around with this kind of thing until they are ready to start their system or do a significant hardware upgrade.

• I can/can ' t connect how to fix this?

  OK, so the problem, but a bit more clear:

  When I turn on my computer, it goes through the commissioning as usual and annoys me in the newspaper of the operating system (OS) in the display. I connect my, all I see is a black screen. I have no control of the mouse or keyboard (where I can log on and can't do anything after the connection). No keyboard control, I want to say that I literally can't even press 'caps lock '. When I do the light meaning that informs the user that the capitals are committed responding or light upward (the world is not broken).

  Specifications of the computer:
  ASUS P8P67 - M PRO
  Intel i5 2500K 3.3GHZ quad core processor
  2 x 4 GB RAM sticks
  60GB SSD (running the operating system and its drivers)
  500 GB HARD drive (running in with the SSD AHCI)
  the power is then more powerful enough to run the computer I think it is 700watts
  I also have a light on the blu ray optical drive
  Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit OS

  I recently formatted my computer and started a new because of the problem, thinking it should fix it. So I decided to reinstall the OS thinking that it would eliminate the problem. It turns out I was wrong. I updated my computers microsoft updates-ITMU (230 of them) and then restarted my computer so that the changes would come into force. I connected and downloaded an update (I think it was 'Microsoft.NET framework') and then I restarted my computer. It of when I can connect but have no control or Visual awareness of what is happening.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• CRISIS recovery information

  Hello, I have a laptop with the following specs:

  Storage: Intel X 25 - M 160 GB SSD (AHCI enabled by registry NVRAM 00 FC)

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Can I get information on the recovery of the CRISIS for this BIOS (R0070J4) BIOS, or even similar model BIOS (same chipset, same series)? Even a Yes/No on the question of if the laptop takes care that it would be useful. Also, if possible, could I get information on the PCIe spec for this notebook wireless card slot (USB support, revision, etc.).

  Thanks for any help you can provide on this BIOS and the recovery from the CRISIS.

  One more thing... On the SONY site, the specifications of this laptop stating that the maximum amount of RAM that can be installed on this laptop computer is 2 GB, I have tested AND confirmed that the laptop VGN-N250E/b supports 3 GB of RAM (you can install 4, but the 4th gigabyte is not seen due to physical CPU (no EAP 36 bits) limitations and chipset).

  You can contact Sony parts & accessories to see if repair is available for purchase.

• SM951 blade ssd for Mac Pro 5.1 - AHCI or NVME

  Hello

  I recently updated my old 3.1 latest 5.1. I also bought a m2 lycom til pciE card and a Samsung SM951 ssd. HOWEVER, I am not able to see the ssd in the finder or disk utility. I bought the NVME version. I think maybe I should have ordered the AHCI version.

  This will be my main drive. It must be initiated.

  Thanks in advance.

  RIL of this model doesn't support NVME, you will need to order a different goal: to solve this problem.

• Cannot set in AHCI mode for disc SSD NB300

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba NB300 netbook, running Windows 8 Pro 32 bit, very happy with it!
  I have a Corsair 3 112 GB Force SSD drive is installed, and everything seems to work fine!

  Read on the SSDS, I see that a better performance for executing the SSD in AHCI mode.
  So I went to menu configuration of startup and changed compatibility in AHCI mode.
  I actually tried a few times, always with the same result, failure!

  When the system is trying to start I get a message saying that there was a problem and that
  the system is trying to gather information.

  The only solution is to go back in the program installation and handed to the compatibility mode.

  The BIOS is up to date, and I just don't see any way to solve the problem.
  I really want to get best performance with this net book as possible.
  I have a screenshot of the details of Speccy SSD drive, but I don't see a way of fixing?

  If anyone can advise me on how to get mounted AHCI mode and go that I would be really grateful!

  Thank you

  Chris

  Unfortunately on this forum we don t have reports on the use of the DSS on NBs I have NB520 and I would use the SSD for, but so far I didn't find the right.

  As far as I know by default BIOS is set to AHCI mode. What operating system you have installed? The original that you got with your laptop or your own version? Have you installed the s Intel Storage Manager of the Toshiba download page?

• HP P6540f - BIOS doesn't support AHCI for newly installed SSD with OS Win 7

  I cloned the drive hard 1 TB of origin provided with OS win 7 x 64 in a blusher SSD Samsung 500 b Bank and replaced the HDD with SSD.  The BIOS does not accept the AHCI mode for this drive and it only accepts the RAID.  Only SATA1 is acrive on this SSD hard drive and therefore does not improve the performance.  Can anyone help?

  I am a novice...

  Thanks Dave. Sometimes you just can't find a BIOS Simulator right when you need it.

  As seen in the image of the BIOS Big_Dave kindly provided, switch from IDE to AHCI and save changes by pressing F10.

  

• Satellite L300D-11V: can I run SSD in AHCI mode?

  Hello

  I just installed a SSD and Win7 64 bit on a laptop L300D-11V.

  Anyone know if it is possible to run in AHCI mode as I don't see the option in the BIOS?

  I saw there is a BIOS update but if it is not updated to enable the AHCI I would rather not bother...

  Hello

  I assume that it should be possible to use the SSD with AHCI mode.

  The AHCI means that the SSD or HARD disk would go with SATA performance but for that you need to install the SATA driver first.
  If SATA is set in compatible mode, then a SATA driver is not necessary to install the Windows operating system.
  Simply said;
  -n t need SATA drivers in compatibility mode
  -you need SATA drivers in AHCI mode

  The SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager and you can download this European driver of Toshiba or Intel page
