Yesterday I got this drive and put it in my HP Pavilion DM4-2191us.
There are two basic problems with the drive:
What I've done:
I'd like to get this ironed out before I leave for vacation for a week tomorrow morning. Thanks guys.
There are two basic problems with the drive:
- The computer will always blue screen when you wake it from sleep (though not from hibernate). It won't do it any other time. Here is what it displays
- The read speed benchmark is sub-par. Average is about 120MB/s. Here is the benchmark. It's jagged and slower than the SATA II SSD in my desktop.
What I've done:
- Tested the drive and memory different ways, both are fine
- I tried updating the SSD with the OCZ Toolbox for the new firmware before I installed Windows on it. For some reason it would never display anything other than firmware 1.3.
- Looked through the HP BIOS for any options, it is extremely bare and there are basically no options other than boot order.
I'd like to get this ironed out before I leave for vacation for a week tomorrow morning. Thanks guys.
