• Increase the performance of MAC with the SSD upgrade

  I have a 21.5-inch iMac model 14.1 (end 2013) with 8 GB of memory and a 1 TB drive. On this, I use some applications in memory such as Adobe CS 5.5 and VMWare Fusion 8.1.1. I have Applecare on the machine until September 2017. I often find myself running out of memory. My goto solution would be to increase the memory and replace the hard drive with an SSD. I fear, however, that this cancels my Applecare. My research indicates that while that frowned upon, I can upgrade my memory and keep my Applecare as long as it is done by an authorized by Apple, but if I do the SSD I'm out of luck for the installed components. My thought is that I can get an external SSD and move the ' WIndows 10' VM (s), as well as expand and move the swapfiles for the SSD system.»

  My questions are am I right about the Applecare and warranty and I plan to use an external SSD to accelerate performance and ease the work of memory constraints?

  I have a Macbook Air in 2010 and also a 2008 iMac - both with only 4 GB of memory (you have twice as much), both running El Capitan and the two with SSD - and perform very well. The 2008 iMac used to have a rotating disc which has recently failed, with the replacement of SSD, it is a remarkable transformation with the new SSD, it seems very quickly for me. Both have Photoshop CS4, which is not used much more, but they run this software very well, as well as MS Office 2011 and other programs such as Mail, Safari, Firefox, etc. (Firefox + Photoshop together put a noticeable load on machines, in fact, but while I sometimes hear the fans come on the Macbook Air, it maintains not up very well) No slowdown) You'll be in great shape with a SSD for your newer computer. These old machines that I use have Core 2 Duo CPUs, chips relatively slow, but they seem very quickly with the SSD.

  You will need to check with Apple directly on your AppleCare and so that would be affected. I don't know that anyone is not Apple should trust this question.

• 2011 21 inch iMac won't start after the SSD upgrade

  Recently, I upgraded my hard drive for an SSD via a computer repair business in my neighborhood, I also upgraded the ram, but I don't think it's in the case. On a two weeks after the upgrade, my computer don't turn on more. I took it to the genius bar and they told me that the DSS had "failed." So of course, I took my computer to the computer repair company and they ran some tests, discovered that the hard disk does not (according to them, he only read this way because the apple store has run the test for a normal hard drive and not an SSD). I'm not super computer savvy, so I took their word for it.

  Now, however, it has been nearly a month and my computer refuses to activate once again. Previously, it has worked well, the fans were running at full blast - what I knew would be a problem (although the repairman told me that they 'fixed' this issue too). So the first time, I downloaded a program called SSD fan control and set the fans to run in silent mode. This second time around, I realized that it was probably a bad idea because it could lead to overheating, so I put manually the fan speed so that we could hear still run, but just not as loud.

  I tried the reset SMC, but no result. Right now, I unplugged everything including disconnect it from the power strip.

  Any other experience of power with a new SSD failure? Is there anything else I could try at home before contacting the computer again repair business? I would not be able to reach at least until tomorrow, and I'm really curious to know how they managed to get my computer back on the first time.

  Also, I've been out of my warranty period for about a year, so that's why I thought that I was not risking too much by exchanging the original for one SSD drive.

  First of all, the original in Middle 2011 iMac hard drive had a temperature sensor integrated in the drive.  More new or replacement of those who do not.

  Other World Computing sells an Apple certified temperature sensor that plugs into the SATA cable.

  https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/OWC/DIDIMACHDD11/

  I just put a 2 GB Western Digital Black in mine, with the sensor.

  I suggest all first, reinstall the OEM disc and see if it boots.

  Put the SSD in an external enclosure and see if it runs...

• 2011 Macbook Pro late since the SSD upgrade

  Hello world. Just a heads-up that is my first question. Also, I like to think I'm good with computers but I'm no computer programmer, so I will try to describe my problem the best I can. My friend (who does) has updated my macbook at the beginning of 2011 pro with an SSD (brand is Crucial and 480 GB). As a side note we also tried with a Kingston brand and had the same problem. I'm pretty confident, that it was installed correctly. Since the upgrade, some functions are faster. For example open Google Chrome is faster than before the upgrade. I have problems when I look at the files and the use of the files stored on my hard drive. For example, when I watch a video that is saved on my hard drive on VLC (Quicktime) it will freeze all the minutes for at least thirty seconds. Also scroll through files Finder can lead to this gel. We are not quite sure what the problem is (my friend, so that good with the Mac is more of a PC guy). I saw other people posting here and thought maybe you all could help! I noticed that EtreCheck is very popular, so I made one of these reports for more details. I appreciate any feedback you can offer

  I had a similar experience (occasional random delay of tens of seconds) upgrade my 13 "2011 MBP ("8.1"model), but my SSD was MacSales (Other World Computing). Their customer support has been excellent. They had me download and run a program of comparative analysis (Quickbench; it was free for me but apparently now costs $15) who served the SSD and allowed them to diagnose the problem as a bad 'HDD cable. I was dubious, but I went to an Apple store nearby, and after a lot of hassle, pushed them to replace the cable and that fixes the problem.

  Of course, you might have a different problem but the defective hard drive cable is apparently quite common and appears only when you use SSDS (because of the faster transfer speeds, I guess).

  As I recall (it was several years ago), the first Apple tried to make me pay $60 for the cable, more work, before they admitted he was covered under AppleCare. It is easy to replace. iFixit carry the cable and has great instructions to replace, but they seem to be out of stock at the moment (they have a button "Notify Me" for when it becomes available again). Try a local supplier of Apple authorized (use the Locator).

  When you get your SSD is working properly, I hope that you will be very happy with it. It makes a huge difference for me.

• Qosmio G30-102 not start after the SSD upgrade

  I have 2 x 840 Pro 256 GB SSD to install in my machine which usually runs two drives independently.

  I used the software to Clone of Samsun to clone my C drive which has XP on it.

  The cloning was successful.

  On the installation of the new SSD, it will be now does not start and keeps cycling to the F12 boot screen.

  I tried all the options without result.
  Any ideas?

  Hello

  I had a similar experience with an upgrade of the SSD.
  I used exactly the same software and has been able to clone partitions of HARD drive to SSD drive and my cell phone did not start the system from the SSD system partition.

  I figured out that the C: partition on the SSD was not marked as active.
  How I solved this?

  Well, I put the SSD in the 2.5 external USB enclosure. Then I booted the laptop using the old HDD. I connected the external SSD drive to the USB port.
  Then I went to Windows disk management and could activate the C partition on the SSD drive.
  Then I replaced the HARD drive with SSD and could boot. :)

• Satellite T135-SP2909C - HD to the SSD upgrade, is it possible?

  Hi guys.
  I own a Toshiba Satellite T135-SP2909C.
  The hard drive is broken, so I think buy a SSD drive, but I wonder if it will work on my laptop.
  How would I know if the SSD hard drive work with my laptop?

  I'm thinking of buying this SSD drive.
  Crucial RealSSD C300 CTFDDAC128MAG - 1 1 2.5 ITS (128 GB, SATA)

  If it is not possible to use SSDS with this laptop, think you on Seagate Momentus XT 500 GB?
  Seagate ST95005620AS Momentus XT 500 GB Solid State Drive hybrid - 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3 Gb/s

  I guess this drive work on my laptop, but still, I'm not 100% sure.

  Does anyone have to upgrade this laptop to a disc SSD or Seagate Momentus XT?

  Concerning

  I agree with Akuma. In General, upgrading should be possible, but due to compatibility issue no one can say with certainty if some SSD works properly or not.

  I just hope that some other T135 owners will offer more specific information about these updates.

  Talk with your dealer and ask if there is possibility to make SSDS if something is wrong.

  Please post comments on the upgrade.

• Works of the SSD upgrade?

  Hi guys,.

  I plan to upgrade my old HDD to SSD but I'm having a lot of software currently installed on my machine of peace.

  Like, I don't know how all of the data transfer of the thing works. Anyone of you could let me know if I can transfer the software installed as well? I have any Adobe / MS Office pack installed here and I lost all the keys to these software.

  So, is it possible to transfer mechanism these installed software intact in new SSD or I need to buy the software again if I decided to go for the new SSD installation.

  Thanks in advance

  you don't say what year or type of Mac, for a user's machine the evolutionary bases are:

  Buy an external enclosure with your new SSD. Format and partition the new disk using disk utility.

  Carbon Copy Cloner to run and make a bootclone of your hard drive internal for the new SSD

  Install the SSD in your Mac. Put the old HD inside for a backup drive.

• My g56 laptop is compatible with the ssd upgrade

  I want to spend my hard drive on my G56 laptop to an SSD. Is this possible?

  Altogether. Any laptop computer or any other that uses a SATA hard drive can work with and benefit from a SATA SSD.

  Ideally, I need the number of entire model, but here is what I think is your Service Manual:

  Manual

  For installation instructions, see page 37. The best and easiest way to do is to use cloning software and a usb Kit of SATA external drive to copy all the contents of the existing on the SSD drive. This is why you must get an SSD at least as large as the amount of data on the drive already more than 20% for comfort. For most people that means getting at least an SSD 240 or 256 and preference a SSD of 500 or 512.

  A 512 GB SSD will put will cost you at least $315 and a 256 will be around $165. Here's a good 256 on newegg.com:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820147248

  This is the type of SSD, I have my own laptop. You can pair it with a laptop computer upgrade kit which includes the adapter cable.

• Need help with the SSD upgrade

  Dear Sir
  Sorry for my bad English. I use Dell Latitude E6530, I want to move to the SSD. But my concert is: How can I copy / clone the original to new SSD HHD RECOVERY PARTITION so that I can use it as a 'factory reset' on the new SSD?

  Thank you very much!

  

  The trip key is F12, F8 not, but yes - once you have the recovery media, you can restore the system to the condition of the plant if necessary.

• I have to remove mSata SSD on Inspiron 15R - SE (7520) during the SSD upgrade?

  I noticed that my laptop has a job 32 GB SSD mSata as cache for 1 TB HARD drive. However I intend to abandon this 1 TB HARD drive in DVD - Rom tray and slap in a SSD 128 GB... now the problem returns to the mSata SSD.

  the mSata ssd presents itself as 'LITEONIT LMT-32', its also show as SATA_array_0001 under the technology Intel Rapid Storage, with 8 GB data and 22 gb Cache volume.

  base on this site, to remove this mSata SSD seems to be a pain in the ass who require a full strip down.

  

  now I'm just amazing, what happens IF I let this mSata SSD in there, he will try to act as a cache for my SSD which is already much faster than it or the system is going to be smart enough to put my HARD drive cache. I will win ANY performance gain / lost in leaving the mSata SSD in? If not, is it possible to disable it?

  Hello again,

  If the installation is very easy. I made sure that the 32 GB msata, was disabled before I installed the new 240 GB SSD.

  After you disable acceleration - MAKE sure THAT YOU RESET to DISP - really important... Make sure the msata drive is empty, no partition.

  I removed the 1 TB drive, after I deleted the partition do not reformat... that I placed in a basket and I replaced the BD player...

  Let Intel rapid storage enabled in the Bios

  I installed the SSD and put the Dell OEM Windows 7 USB in and then I went... Because the other 2 drives had no any partition, left of Windows system reserves on the SSD> Windows will throw the reserve system on any other installed drive which has partitions, installing (reason msata and 1 TB of disk are not formatted)

  Once Windows 7 has been made and installed, I have download driver Intel Rapid Storage from Dell... and went in the administrative options... I formatted the 1 TB drive and initialized only msata 'no format.

  Returned to Intel Rapid Storage, and it was there, activate the acceleration. So I used only 22 GB for acceleration, on the storage of 1 TB drive 'former reader'... leaving me flying over 8 GB... Re-entered administrative options... and I formatted (NTFS) 8gbs... I used the 8 GB for my swap file, freeing up the 8 gb of OS "ssd s. - great idea, using a separate drive for the paging file.

  I'm sure that you can also use the 8 GB for your quick start too, but I do not use the quick start...

  Now, I have a 240 gb C500 and a Cached 1 TB 5400 RPM disk storage... I never really use the BD player... But I kept it just wrap... Reading and writing is great on this thing and if I decided to load my 425 GB of steam games, now I can load them on my storage drive, and it will always be super fast!

  Thanks for reading and I hope you find this useful!

• HP mini 110-3500 laptop: computer laptop HP mini 110-3500 fails to start after the SSD upgrade

  Hello
  I recently bought a ' crucial 250 gb 2.5 "SSD and 2 GB of RAM (also by crucial), to upgrade my laptop HP mini 110-3500, who has been extremely slow. But unfortunately, the laptop refused to start when turned on. What can I do? I am very worried.

  You answered. That's what I thought. You have DDR3L-1600 low voltage 1.35 volts. Low voltage will operate at a higher voltage (1.5 volts), but it is not the ideal memory for older hardware. Need memory DDR3-1333 name specified for the HP laptop. You can confirm or refute my diagnosis by putting in the memory of the old and see if it boots.

  It's the part number you need:

• The upgrade of the SSD on my laptop from Alienware 17

  Hello. I just got my new laptop Alienware 17 game and so far, I am VERY impressed with its performance. Frame rates are amazing in everything I tried, and it remains very cool compared to my laptop XPS15. It has a 'boot' of 256 GB drive and a dish of 5 400 rpm 1 TB disk for storing data.

  I want to improve the SSD 256 GB for a 1 TB SSD. I bought the 1 TB SSD and cloned the 256 GB for it. I opened the laptop according to the manual and looked at the "primary" hard disk, expected to be the 256 GB SSD but rather what I found in this slot machine is the data of 5 400 rpm 1 TB drive. Research in the 'secondary' Bay, I see that it is empty. I can't put anything I want on the 256 GB SSD, that's why I bought the 1 TB SSD. Where the 256 GB SSD, and how will install the SSD 1 TB as primary drive (boot)?

  I also intend to upgrade the flat disc at 1 to 7 200 RPM SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive) after the SSD upgrade. I need first of all put the SSD well. Does anyone know how to do this?

  Thanks for listening, and I'll be happily play until I can find an answer.

  Best,

  Marc

  Here's what I decided to do:

  Keep the record of 256 GB m2 for start-up and cache. The CT 1 SSD is the main location for my apps and games. I removed the disc 5 400 rpm and put a 1 to 7 200 RPM SSHD in the secondary location. The 5 400 1 TB drive is now in surplus but can be used for other purposes. Everything seems to work properly.

  Thanks for all your comments, it's much appreciated.

  Best,

  Marc

• SSD upgrade for Satellite Pro P200 (PSPB7A-01000J) - possible?

  Hello world

  I had a Satellite Pro P200 for 3 years and more. It came with Vista Business pre-installed, but I have successfully installed Windows 7 a few months ago.

  A few months ago, I replaced the C drive in my office with a Solid State Drive and now he sings - program start and loading of the system is much faster than before.

  Now I'm wondering if the SSD upgrade even could be done to my trusty P200 and if yes, what brand/model of SSD could be better. It should be 128 GB or 256 GB maybe.

  Anyone else been in this way? The results? Pitfalls?

  All responses appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Greg.

  Hello

  I think that it should be possible.
  You must use a SATA SSD drive since the laptop supports the SATA controller.
  To be honest, I never tried to upgrade the laptop with a SSD but SSD is not very different from the HARD drive and normally should not be a problem.
  In some cases, an update of the firmware of SSD may be necessary but usually these firmware updates should be available on the SSD drive manufacturer support page.

  Hello

  There is an earlier discussion on the SSD upgrade 1st generation carbon x 1, up to 256 GB. Someone mentioned two specific models with exclusive SSF form factor on this machine. I did a google search and can't find anywhere to buy. This is the model number of 256 GB. Anyone knows where to buy?

• The SSD and RAM upgrade

  I have the 13-inch Retina Display early 2015 model. It contains 128 GB SSD and 8 GB of RAM.

  I wanted to update both of them. Is this possible? I agree with HARD drive even if that is supported. 128 GB is not enough for me actually.

  Help, please.

  Without the SSD and RAM are both not upgradable.

  One option is to sell your computer and use the money to buy a new one with the features you need.

  There are two options to add an HD card to your card HD slot. Both options will be flush with the case.
