  What do you mean it won't? What did you do exactly?

• Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD? or would it be too expensive?

  Is it possible to replace the hard drive with an SSD?

  or would it be too expensive?

  Yes.  There are several alternatives.  I found a way relatively inexpensive, using a map of mSATA (very small SSD) and an adapter to connect it to the connector IDE 44 pin internal of my PowerBook.  It works very well.  Rather than repeat what I posted previously, you can watch these two topics (which also has good info, other users)

  FYI - I have used the adapter is even cheaper now

  Initially, you Mac Pro came with an SSD.

  Just what failure symptoms are you having? Maybe your SSD did not fail.

  If necessary and if yo are up to it you can replace the SSD yourself

• Replacing the CD/DVD with SSD

  Hi, I have a mid-2009 13 "Macbook, and I plan to replace the CD/DVD drive (which it doesn't) with an SSD, instead of replacing it with a new CD player.

  I would move so that OSX and software on the new SSD, leaving other data on my main hard drive. I read that the best solution is to install OSX on the SSD from scratch, since migration it seems impossible, but how then I could remove the 'duplicate' old of my HDD main OSX?
  The entire migration process is not quite clear to me, I wouldn't mind some step by step instructions.

  Thank you in advance!

  1st, I did it on an iMac, so I went through it.

  You can use a utility cloning as Carbon Copy clone (demo fully active 1 month) or SuperDuper free (free for a full clone) to move your boot disk for SSD and it will be fully functional.  In my case, I used Carbon Copy Cloner.  It is even technically possible to use the Applications-> utilities-> disk utility-> restoration as a means to clone the drive, but I find it cumbersome.

  <http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html>

  <https://www.bombich.com/>

  I think you could also just restore a backup Time Machine for the SSD as well (although I did not do that, so I don't know the details).

  You can do a clean install and get rid of any cruft you've accumulated over the years and then install only the stuff that you are currently using.

  Or you could do a clean install and then use the Applications-> utilities-> Migration Wizard move above specific categories of files of initial startup disk.

  After you have the SSD running with your software on it, consider allowing TRIM

  I used OWC <http://MacSales.com> kit data-Doubler to replace my iMac DVD by an SSD.  They provided everything I needed.  I chose a kit including the tools I needed.  I also watched the OWC installation videos, as well as on YouTube to become familiar with the installation.  And I had a copy of the instructions to disassembly <http://iFixIt.com> and images to print for reference, while doing the installation.  I would have recorded any screws that I removed the instructions that told me to remove that screw then I would make sure I would put the correct screws into the appropriate holes.

• Portege R500 - how to replace the SSD?

  Hello

  1. I have trouble using the recovery CD. The computer to read the CD once and give me an error message that it cannot partition the SSD drive. Ask me to restart the PC. Then I insert the CD change once again, the sequence of boot on the CD, but now, the computer does not recognize the recovery CD. Now, the freezing of the PC after start.

  2. I have a legal windows vista CD I tried to install in the PC but I'm not a clean install because the computer does not read the CD

  3. I tried the CD in another computer. I insert the CD to reboot and the computer immediately went to the wizard of microsoft vista.

  4. I tested the CD rom and it works.

  5. I believe that the solid state SSD laptop drive has failed.

  I opened my laptop to check what I need to buy the brand SSD. However, is the first time that I change a SSD drive and I don't know where he is and how to replace. So, if someone can answer with the steps of how to do to replace the SSD I will appreciate it.

  Thank you
  Nils.

  Hello!

  In my opinion, it could also be a problem with the CD/DVD drive. I mean you have tried another drive and the computer laptop doesn t read this disc too.
  So for me it sounds like this drive is also defective.

  But as Akuma said you should also check the SATA Mode in the BIOS.

  I think the best way would be to contact you nearest ASP. They can check a defective hardware for laptop parts and Exchange. If your laptop is under warranty, repairs are free.

• Satellite L50 - A-1 DG - with the new SSD HARD drive replacement

  Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG

  I would put my SSD in the PC and install win7 on it. But it does not work.

  I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  I tried to replace the SSD hard drive. Then the pc cannot start up. And I can't get into the bios or adjustment.

  Someone knows what's the problem?

  > I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  This does not work with all models of laptops.
  As far as I know that the laptop must support Slim Select Bay and the BIOS should also support this hardware option. But in your case, it doesn t.

  One possible solution is the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk.

  You said that you are not able to access the BIOS after these updates.
  Well, before you do this (a SSD drive connection) you should access the BIOS and must disable secure boot and must set the start mode MSC mode.

  The comments appreciated.

• Satellite L650 - 10 H - replace the optical drive of a second HDD/SSD?

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all I don't know why would you refrain from ODD... I always use ODD and it fail...

  Well, some laptops as Tecra has supported this feature.
  For that you need a special envelope where the HARD drive is placed.
  This Chamber was placed in the Bay of ODD.

  But I m not very well if L650 model that would support personally I doubt it would work because of the controller on the motherboard.

  However, if you want to be safe, I would recommend an ASP in your country you asking if a compatible box be available satellite L650.

• HP 700-330qe: how to disable or replace the SSD on HP 700-330qe

  Help for my HP 5 months! It kills Me!

  I bought a HP 700-330qe in 2014 from Amazon and just started getting SMART of Windows hard disk errors whenever my computer restarts, telling me that the hard drive failure is imminent. He also tells me to shut down the computer immediately, save it, contact the manufacturer, etc. Never seen it in any PC I owned before. Naturally, I freaked out and did some internet research, discover that it is relatively easy to clone and replace a hard drive. I ordered a new hard drive Western Digital 3 TB of Amazon, a docking station for disc brand cable hard of Amazonia and downloaded the Macrium Reflect free disk management software.

  Items from Amazon arrived in a few days and I got to work making a clone of my one and only hard drive. Clone was made with little problem. Shut down the computer, it opens and replaced the old hard disk with a new one. Start the computer to the top and got the same message on imminent hard drive failure! So I paid more attention to it this time and looked up the model number in the warning message, which was: ScanDisk SDSA6DM - 016 G-1006. I Googled that and found it was the disk solid state drive (SSD) used as a cache to speed up certain operations. Arrgh.

  I stuck my old hard drive in the hard drive docking station and was ready to be cloned partition SSD and all partitions on the hard drive to the hard drive and the removal or at least unplug the SSD drive to get rid of this problem. The software told me that the SSD is shaped as MPR (or something like that) while the main hard drive is formatted as GPT, which are different types of hard drive, formatting, so you cannot copy these different types of partitions on a hard drive.

  So here's my options as I see them:

  (1) I have to either disable the SSD, but I don't know how and I don't know if the computer will always start the same. Windows is partially installed on SSD? I do not know.

  (2) to clone and replace the DSS about the same way I did with the main hard drive. I can get the SSD according to Amazon for $49: Kingston Digital 60 GB SSDNow V300 SATA 3 2.5 (height of 7mm) with adapter Solid State Drive SV300S37A / 60G.

  For the option #2 above, the only problem is that I have no idea where the OEM SSD of ScanDisk is currently installed in my computer! It is in the hard drive cage? I don't see anything else installed there. I thought it was in the cage directly above the hard drive cage, but I think that what I was looking at was the front memory card reader/USB ports. I don't have on CD Player installed and I can see where it is. Help!

  PS: I also downloaded EaseUS Partition Master 10.2 and it allows to analyze the SSD drive. While it was scanning it found 9 bad blocks (on tens of thousands of blocks), but when he finished the analysis it says there is a lot of blocks. For this to happen on an SSD, which is supposed to be more reliable than hard disks of small, to make this so much more aggravating situation. At least, I upgraded my hard drive 2 TB to 3 TB and know now that I can do. Sigh.

  Yes, I had a frusrtrating very experience with HP customer support, even after it was raised to a case manager based in the United States, who called me home. She found no part at all in its computer system and wanted to send me in my whole PC to a service center customer (it was still under warranty) which would take at least 3 weeks. I said no and went forward and the DSS out of my computer. I stopped receiveing the error messages and did not notice a slow down in performance, but went ahead and bought and installed this one, just in case it actually provides an advantage: My Digital 32 GB SSD Bullet Proof (on Amazon for $25).

  As a note to end funny to this drama, about 6 months after my discussion with HP support I describe above, I have randomly mailed an envelope of HP with the exact 16 GB SSD, they said that they didn't in their system. It also included an envelope to return my faulty SSD and a stern note saying if they do not receive the defective item within 3 days my credit card (that I never gave them) would be charged. I threw a long time ago the defective item and just throw it back into a drawer... or maybe that I returned it in the envelope for return of defective product? I don't remember really.

  In any case, it was a horrible customer service experience, and since then I have another HP Envy (my PC 3 year to my son) have a hard drive and video card fail at the same time. I replaced the two after a few problems, but no matter what I do, it can get its setup dual monitor want to work more. I tried several video cards and nothing.

  All of these factors combined caused me write off HP for the future PC purchases. The guys in my company IT say it's the reason why we only buy Dell computers at work (we have hundreds of maintain). They do not use strange pieces like these small SSD cache records, and their parts are standard and easy to replace because of the case. I'll either get a Dell or ASUS as my next PC.

• Replace the SSD 2015 MBP retina

  Purchased the base early 2015 retina MBP (was on a real budget) and I'm looking to replace the SSD with a larger SSD.  I read on various forums that this can be done, but that nobody makes compatible SSD yet... However, these positions have been since around about a year ago.  Has this changed?  Is it possible to buy an SSD and replace my existing and if so, where?  Can't seem to find anything on ifixit.com, I saw mentioned OWC.

  Thank you!

  Now, there is no replacement for the SSD for Macbook Pro retina 13 or 15 (2015) as Apple use a non-standard interface of its SSD.

  The most economical way to clean large SSDS such as 512 GB or 1 TB on the last Macbook pro is to customize your rMBP when you bought from Apple so far.

• How to replace the hard drive with an SSD on a model of end 2011 MacBook Pro 15 inch, A1286

  Hello

  I would like to replace the hard drive on my model of end 2011 MacBook Pro 15 inch, A1286 with a disk solid state drive (SSD). First of all, I would like to know if this is possible. Second, what is the best way to do it? I'm under the Yosemite OS if that makes a difference.

  Here are some technical details of my current system:

  -MacBook Pro 15 inch, late 2011 model A1286

  -OS yosemite

  -16 GB of memory/RAM

  -Currently using stock HD

  All instructions step by step would be helpful with what software should I use to make backups of my current operating system (e.g., SuperDuper). I would also like to know what tools or material I need like type of screwdriver, cables to transfer data to the SSD, etc.. My goal is to not have to reinstall each app one by one on the SSD, but if that's the only way to do it then it's okay.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  You can see instructions OWC here. Tools are mentioned in the discussion (I used a plastic knife picnic with the stronger edge somewhat blunt for nylon pry tool). I suggest you invest in one of these external fences. Install the SSD in who and clone internally externally with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper. Then move the external drive of the internal drive after the start of the SSD in the external to confirm the operation.
