How to install a solid state drive (ssd) after buying it? After installation, what operations need to be performed on the computer to use it?

The installation steps are as follows:

1. The installation method of solid-state drive is the same as that of mechanical hard drive. It is also divided into power port and data port. If it is a notebook expansion, it can be placed on the optical drive position. If it is a mechanical hard drive, you can directly replace the corresponding interface. Compared with desktop computers, it is simpler. Just replace the original interface. Remember here that generally solid-state drives support SATA3 or above interfaces, so as to improve the actual performance of the hard drive. .

2. After the computer is turned on, press DEL to enter bios and enter advanced mode as shown in the figure. (The shortcut keys to enter bios are different for different computer motherboards)

3. In the advanced mode, open the advanced options on the way to find the hard disk mode. This is the culprit that affects our system installation, as shown in the figure.

4. Change the ahci mode to IDE mode, as shown in the figure. After modification, press F10 and select YES to restart to install the system.

5. If it is a computer with other bios, you can refer to the location on the way to find out by yourself. Of course, you can also search for the manual of the motherboard, as shown in the picture. Knowledge expansion:

Solid State Drives (Solid State Drives), referred to as solid drives, are hard drives made of solid-state electronic storage chip arrays. They are composed of a control unit and a storage unit (FLASH chip). , DRAM chips). The interface specifications and definitions, functions and usage methods of solid-state drives are exactly the same as those of ordinary hard drives. The product appearance and size are also completely consistent with ordinary hard drives. It is widely used in military, vehicle, industrial control, video surveillance, network monitoring, network terminals, electric power, medical, aviation, navigation equipment and other fields.

The operating temperature range of its chip is very wide, including commercial products (0~70℃) and industrial products (-40~85℃). Although the cost is higher, it is gradually becoming popular in the DIY market. Because solid-state drive technology is different from traditional hard drive technology, many emerging memory manufacturers have emerged. Manufacturers only need to purchase NAND memory and match it with appropriate control chips to manufacture solid-state drives. The new generation of solid-state drives generally uses SATA-2 interface, SATA-3 interface, SAS interface, MSATA interface, PCI-E interface, NGFF interface, CFast interface and SFF-8639 interface.
