solid state drive

I converted from Windows 7 Home to windows10. When I go to Disk Defragmenter it tells me I can't optimize because my drives are solid state. My Drives are Hitachi SATA. How can I make Windows 10 redetect my Hard Drives?

I just stated to get my Toshiba back to Out of the Box condition. Well, since I changed out my hard drive to a Solid State one, with just the first disk of three, it has taken me 3 hours and 40 minutes to get the Hard drive deleted 50%. So much for SS Drives being in a hurry. I am on my...

Back to running Windows-7-pro. Still more solid than 8.1 or beta-10. I have 16-gigs of ram on the board. Windows-7 sees it, but I often wondered if it actually uses it. I had the pagefile at 12-gigs. So I did a test. I moved 38-gigs from one sata drive to another sata drive. The desktop...

Storage. It's not a sexy topic. But everyone uses it in some way or another. You have iPhones, you have computers. Everyone knows how important a person's data is. But it doesn't just "disappear." Or does it? New research suggests that newer solid-state hard drives, which are faster and offer...

I'm considering loading Windows 8 on an older Netbook - it has an Atom N270 1.6ghz cpu, 2GB of ddr2 and a solid state disk, so I'm thinking while far from a beast, it should be able to keep up? http://www.cnet.com/laptops/dell-inspiron-mini-9/4507-3121_7-33240837.html this has more info on it...

Okay, so, I have issues dealing with the fact that I have windows 7 installed on a 32 gig Solid State, meaning that I perpetually don't have enough space for anything, but that's not my problem, it just might be related to my problem. My problem is that I turned off my computer, and it...

Hello I'm new to these forums. What happened to my computer is, I kept getting the BSOD, I went into safe mode, removed the most recent programs I had installed, and it stopped happening. I then proceeded to plug in my external hard drive. It was not recognizing it for some reason, so I went to...

Using Windows 7, my "C" drive is a small solid state drive and all I wish to have on it is my Win 7 operating system. My "D" drive is mechanical and 500 Gig so I would like to have as much as possible on that drive. How do I move my Favorites folder to my "D" drive and have it always...

Hi, for some strange reason my PC started to give me these random BSOD after about 1h of run time. It started doing this a day ago and have never stopped since. I have tried inserting the ram one by one, leaving only my OS drive installed, still no luck. Can someone please take a look at my dump...

I added a solid state drive last night. I then used Norton Ghost 15 to copy my old drive to my new one. I started the copy process and went to bed. When I woke up the next morning the PC was off. I unplugged the old hard drive and turned the PC on. I then saw the BOOTMGR is missing message. I...
