    Just an additional information on this tutorial. You must make sure you desarm the battery to avoid any damage on the memory or motherboard. There is a very small hole to do it. Check the hardware documentation to found out about this procedure.

    if yours is like mine>>>>
    in BIOS change from UEFI boot to legacy boot (temporarily)
    then do the other things to establish USB as boot priority

    Hard Drives and Solid State Drive are Both Hardware Components Designed For Data Storage. For as Long as Both Components Have The **Same SATA Connectors, They are Indeed Interchangeable.
    **Some HP Laptop Hard Drives Have Modified SATA Connectors.

    i think samsung provided all the driver in their website. just go through it one by one. i did download them all for 64bit. but not yet have the time to installed. OR u can just make your life easier by creating the recovery CD image with your stock HDD (pre-install HDD). just press F4 at BIOS boot page while booting up. hope that help.

    I just replaced the 500GB HDD of my GF's NP535U3C with a Samsung Evo 850 250GB using the Samsung Data Migration Software. Everything went flawless. The laptop did not even sense it got a surgery when I booted up with the SSD.
    Anyhow, I want to maximize also the RAM. It came from the factory with 2GB. I have an extra 2GB which I easily put on the empty RAM slot for a total now of 4GB. I also tried putting my extra 8GB RAM from my other laptop and it worked also for a Total of 10 GB when i tested it.
    When I ran the SSD and RAM compatibility scanner from Crucial.com, it says the maximum I can get is 8 GB as 2 x 4GB. The problem is just like many of us, has anyone actually seen if the initial/default RAM chip that is with the motherboard removable? Based on the Crucial Scan, I can put 2 x 4GB to max it out. But im not willing to go to the extent of disassemblying the entire back to see the original RAM.
    thank you.

    just bought one yesterday. that was not a 7mm HDD. 6mm actually. super slim. n i bought 7mm corsair force GS altogether online. just a 1mm height problem so hardly to fit in. aluminium plated is 1mm. n there is a grounding plate at the skrew. don't dare not to use the HDD base plate. so. in the end i placed the SSD without the skrew. getting a driller next time.

    Should have pressed the emergency hole button with a paper clip to cut battery power first and also fully shut down before attempting to upgrade it.

    Thiago, ao que li no site da Samsung, é de 1600.

    Warning: Without using a paper clip (or similar sized object) to press the button in the "Emergency Hole" to cut the battery power you can fry your motherboard by doing what this guy does. Please refer to your Samsung manual for more info.

    what screw driver did you use to take off the back plate it looks like a precision screw driver. I tried to take it off with great difficulty, I'm thinking because the screw is small it needs a precision screw driver is this correct.

  • @azynheira
    @azynheira 12 лет назад

    Hello,
    It happens that I just bought one and also added 4Gb of memory to the existing OB memory.
    The problem is that with the 8Gb, every time I try to wake the laptop from sleep, it irremediably shutdowns and restarts. - If I remove the expansion it works.
    Did you see any similar behavior and if so how did you solve it..!
    Thanks in advance,
    Pedro

    • @whoisit6474
      @whoisit6474 7 лет назад +2

      Eh?
      Here is a LENGTHY response, should you be bothered to read multi experine based comments that are constructed with more than a bad run with one Laptop that frankly should have been sent to Samsung for replacement, who would have done so quickly without any real effort needed.
      I currently have 3 Samsung Laptops in my home. One is my sole use and the other two I share with my 14yr old. in thise three I have A "bog standard" 15.6" Laptop with the onboard intel Graphics. Mainly used by my son for schoolwork and streaming sites and Android games via BlueStacks, I also have the RF711 that I use for myself, (i7) 17" With Nvidia graphics and RF511 (i7) 15.6" with Nvidia Graphics. There has not been one single problem with them at all in heating terms or performance terms. A repair shop killed a Hard Drive by not disconnecting the battery completely, and replaced the hard drive which I simply restored and rebuilt from an external back up (Moreover I have had Samsung laptops since 2008 upgrading when appropriate) I have upgraded the RAM in each laptop to the Maximum permitted each time, I keep the software for the onboard hardware up to date and run "many games on them" The most demanding games I do run on the RF711 as it is top spec'd so it is the best result for my needs playing on a 65" TV. That said they are High End Laptops NOT GAMING laptops, yet still cope well and DO NOT OVERHEAT nor MAX OUT the CPU.
      Also with the Latest large screen TVs the Samsungs are great or network playing Movies, streaming etc. (if you prefer not to use a smartphone or USB pen drive, the Samsung Software to do this is pukka & it is easy and intuitive to use. I have a HUGE movie collection in 1080P and now 4K-2160P which are fairly large files of 5GB to20GB so it suits me to play Movies using one of my Samsung laptops from the collection on one of my two Toshiba USB3.0 Portable drives (1 x 3TB & 1 x 2TB) I also have SEAGATE Mains powered 3TB drives on my network as well and I buy all USB drives by SANDISK and Micro SD Cards by QUMOX. So I am not a Samsung "Bitch" without sense to use other products that worked best for my needs when I tried them out.
      Honestly I will be sad to see this set of Laptops be upgraded, and have kept them a bit longer than normal, but when I upgrade I will go to a decent supplier and arrange 7 days testing of Samsung versus other brands, but frankly I just can't see getting what I want, built reliably at a SENSIBLE price. Plus, with Samsun honouring a little Known EU Warranty Directive on ALL of their goods, I know I will have two years full warranty too. I had two identical Plasma TVs develop an odd fault out of the blue inside 7 days, due to a 3rd party component that was no longer available. Samsung collected them, (left me replacement Tvs to use) then replaced the faulty units with newer models (LED Tvs now of course, avoiding PLASMA issues) and the newer models were ones of my choice, and were brand new boxed TVs, and their service agent even came and took care of all the wall mounting/unmounting/remounting along the way.
      Reliability AND good product online support AND great Customer Service mean a lot to me. I am disabled and can not be traipsing back and forth to stoires easily with products that fail, and Samsung even "give extra assistance" for those of us needing some extra help to provide an EQUAL OUTCOME to non-disabled cutomers. That said, the products are so good I have not had any cause to place demands on Samsung over Laptops at all.
      I realise we can all have Bad Experiences iwth products, but it seems highly unlikely that the issues you describe were applicable to every one of the model you had or we would know of it in this age of bad news is Rad news.
      I hope this explains how others can have some faith in Samsung laptops still.
      If you are "still here" Thx for reading.
      (PS)
      Search for EU 1999 Warranty Consumer Protections and you'll find the directive that can be applied to ALL good bought in the EU from ANY manufacturer. I have used it many times for elctrical Household Goods outside of the "MFR 1 Year Warranty." period, and have always had items replaced with new goods. Knowledge is GOOD!

    Exactly how does cutting the power to a device fry it?
    There is no electricity there to fry it. LOGIC.
    Manuals are full of cover-my-ass-from-liability wording. Quote form the manual re the battery hole : "This may result in data loss or a product
    malfunction." A malfunction, as in your OS getting corrupted, NOT actual hardware damage.
