The only thing i didn't like, but its not a huge problem, is the Samsung Magician Software wanted me to allocate 10% of my drive to Over Provisioning. It starts to make a sound but is cut off by windows already being logged into and loaded, ha. There isn't even time for the windows login sound that usually plays after you log in. This SSD seems to add its own speed to the equation, and now my games load faster, and play smoother, which i honestly didn't expect. The Installs were speedy, and restarts were even faster. Seemed like it only took as long as my download speed slowed it down.

The update process didn't take as long as with a normal drive.
#STORAHCI ERROR SAMSUNG EVO 850 PRO DRIVER#
I think it was from the driver integration i did. Got to the last part of installing windows and there was an error installing a "component". Then i used RT 7 Lite, select the directories those tools put the files in, and wallah.
#STORAHCI ERROR SAMSUNG EVO 850 PRO INSTALL#
To download all the recent windows 7 updates, i used this tool: which downloaded all the updates to a folder,Īnd I used this tool to get all my drivers that i currently have installed: Which basically backs up all my drivers to a folder, along with their install INFs. RT 7 Lite lets you "intergrate" updates and drivers into the windows 7 iso, but you need to already have the update MSU files and Driver INF files ready to go.
#STORAHCI ERROR SAMSUNG EVO 850 PRO HOW TO#
I kinda had to figure out how to only add the updates, and drivers on my own though. I used to the tool called RT 7 Lite, which is kinda similar, but has more to it. I already had an ISO with SP1 that i slipstreamed years ago, but not the many many updates that came after.
Sounds as if you found the right tool in the end to perform a fast patched installation, and here's a good article for everyone else if they'd like to do the same:. Now, is there something i need to do to prepare for this, or is it a simple task that the samsung tool will walk me through?Īnd does anyone have any tips for a SSD noobie? Is it going to blow my mind? Do i need to wear my cycling helmet the first time i load it up? will i be happy? I literally have night terrors of these dang updates.Īnyways, I read that the samsung drive will come with a migration tool that should copy my current main drive and all its data. netframe work service pack (i do have my windows 7 usb installer slipstreamed with sp1). You'd think Microsoft would just make one big. net framework updates, install 50, reboot, and there are like 100 more, reboot, etc. I don't want to install windows from scratch anymore. So, i'm not too worried about that anymore.Īnyways, my problem is now, i have the Drive coming and it'll be here tomorrow. Certainly out live the rest of the components in my machine. The warranty is great for me because I've always been told by kids online that the SSD drives have a limited writes, so im scared the drive will die, however i after researching the endurance matter, i learned that this drive will probably outlive me. THEN, i noticed it was only a couple hundred more to get the 850 PRO, which i read has a longer life span, and some other improvements, not to mention a 10 year warranty from samsung. So, I plan on making my main drive now which is a 6xxgb something into a normal data drive for whatever, but I want to clone it and copy it to the new SSD drive.Īt first I ordered the 500gb 840 evo, but then I felt "only a hundred dollars or so more to get the 1tb" so i changed my order to from the 500gb to the 1TB 840 EVO. My main drive is starting to act up as it is, and i need more space. However, i was in the market for 16gb of ram (my old pc had 12gb, my new faster pc only has 8gb, and i miss the extra ram), and since i was buying the ram, i thought i might as well finally go SSD since the larger sizes are getting more affordable. They serve me well, im never late for any important real life events because i was home waiting for my PC to start up or anything like that. My friends have been telling me to switch to SSD for a long while.
