Hi all,
I've had my laptop for 2 years now, without any issues, however I'd like to try and breath some new life into her with a new SSD drive. I've got a couple of questions:
- Will SATA 6Gb/s work with the Vortex II-15 or are only 3Gb/s compatible?
- Will any standard 2.5" SSD drive fit?
- Are there any brand restrictions that won't work?
- Are there any capacity restrictions to the size it can be?
I'd love to hear from any other Vortex II pundits who've upgraded to an SSD drive themselves :yes:
Spec's:
Chassis & Display Vortex II-15: 15.6" Full HD LED Backlit 16:9 Widescreen (1920x1080) Super Clear Glossy
Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Mobile Processor i7-2720QM (2.20GHz) 6MB Cache
Memory (RAM) 8GB SAMSUNG 1333MHz SODIMM DDR3 MEMORY (2 x 4GB)
Graphics Card 1.5GB nVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M - DirectX® 11 (15.6" Vortex II)
2nd Graphics Card NONE
Memory - 1st Hard Disk 250GB WD SCORPIO BLACK WD2500BEKT, SATA 3 Gb/s, 16MB CACHE (7200 rpm)
Operating System Windows Pro 7.
Many thanks,
Rob.
