Precision M4600 Owners Lounge

Many thanks,
after your suggestion I decided to buy the Drive caddy and install the Crucial m4 128. Do you think it is possible? Does the Intel Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller of M4600 support the 6Gbps SATA interface of the Crucial SSD?

 

I have the newmodeUS Optical Drive Caddy and it works and fits perfectly.

Yes SATA III speeds are fully supported on the M4600.

 

Many thanks again Anile,

so let's go!!

Further questions when they will arrive, so be patient with me!!

 

Can you send a link for the new Drive Bay? Is it possible to make raid between theese 2 disks then?

 

Okay... But i don't need that much storage, i'm preferring speed besides storage... But someone wrote, that the new drive bay fit's perfectly, then my question is if it's possible to make raid between 2 x 256 gigs intel 510

 

This has already been discussed in depth within another forum thread and the link previously posted.

HERE it is again.

 

Here the link:
2nd HDD / SSD Caddy - DELL Precision M6400, M6500, M4600, M6600 [OBHD9-SATA-SATA-B] - $42.00 : NewmodeUS, Hard Drive Caddys for Notebooks

Actually I don't know if it is possible, but this this the most important aspect, so I extremely hope so...!!!!!!!!!

Anile8???? Any answer, please?

 

Yes, that's the link, but i still don't know if it's possible to make raid between the 2,5" installed inside the Laptop, and the 2,5" installed in the optical adapter?

 

Yes, I would think it is possible to RAID two SSD's in the M4600 but I have not tried it myself to confirm. I do not know if you can RAID 2 x 2.5" SSD's.

"Optional RAID 0 or RAID 1 (when configured with 2.5" drive and solid state Mini-Card)"

You must be needing some insane speed.

 

Just thinking it could be funny to analyze the performance at 2 x SSD drives, one of my mate's is running PCI-E SSD, he's performing about 800 mb/s in his desktop, could be nice to get theese speeds in a laptop
