  1. Cannot boot from SSD after replacing HDD in Sony Vaio Laptop - svf15213cbw


    Hello! Just bought a SSD Kingston UV500 to use on my Sony Vaio svf15213cbw.


    It is recognized as an UBS drive and i even could install a clean one Windows 10 on it. I can run normally when it is attached as an USB drive. So the SSD is working fine.
    But when i swap the original HD and try to boot using the SSD it doesn't work. It freezes on the "Vaio" screen and nothing elses works. I can't acess BIOS using Assist or F2 for exemple. It completely freezes. I've tried to boot using via USB and CD but it completely freezes. Nothing works!

    And them sometimes after a few minutes this message apears on the screen

    "Checking Media...Fail"



    And them turns back to the "Vaio" freezed screen. Please i searched on many foruns but couldn't find any solution.

    The SSD was formated as MBR and i've already tried Legacy and UEFI but nothing works.

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

  2. Upgrade to SSD from HDD


    I have old Sony Vaio AIO desktop that I want to replace the HDD with 256GB SSD. Current OS is latest version of Windows 10. Computer has Legacy bios and uses Std Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller. I plan to do a clean install of windows 10 .

    I understand that I need to change to ACHI mode for the SSD to work properly . Do I do this prior to swapping the HDD for SSD ? Is this mode even available in the Legacy Bios ? Please advise the sequence of steps to take for the conversion . tks

  3. Does Windows 10 automatically recognise that a SSD has replaced a HDD?

    I have recently replaced the HDD in my Windows 10 laptop with a SSD. As I understand it, Windows periodically runs a defragmentation in the background on a HDD. However, SSD drives do not require defragmenting and running such a tool can shorten the life
    of a SSD.

    The SSD was a clone of the HDD and not a new installation. Will Windows 10 recognize that the laptop now has a SSD and stop its background defragmentation or do I need to take specific steps to prevent this activity occurring on the SSD? If I need to take
    action please advise on the steps I should take.

    Thanks for any advice anyone can offer.
