This video explains which is is best caddy size for your laptop, 9.5mm or 12.7mm which is available in Online and offline markets. So, you can properly upgrade you Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer, MSI, or ASUS laptops. In this video i am using a Dell Latitude 3440 i3 Laptop to upgrade the SSD and Storage, you can do same with any laptop which has DVD writer or ROM.
Common QNA Regarding to Upgrade
=================================
Question 1: Can i Install SSD directly in Caddy instead replacing internal HDD?
✏️ Answer: Yes, But you must have to Install OS to SSD and, have to make the SSD Primary Drive in Bios. (But i would suggest to install SSD in the place of HDD for strong connection, Loose connection or a bad Caddy may cause to booting or speed problems.)
Question 2: Can i install 2 SSD by replacing HDD and in Caddy also?
✏️ Answer: Yes, Great! It will boost your laptop speed even more. (If you use HDD in Caddy it sleeps when you are not using the HDD, Once you open the HDD drive it takes time to spin the disk. Will save time to access the Data drive if you use 2 SSD)
Question 3: Can i use More than 1TB HDD in Caddy as Data Drive?
✏️ Answer: Yes, No Problem.
Question 3: Which SSD brand is Good for Installation?
✏️ Answer: Crucial SSD is Cheap and Best in the price point and Speed. You can go for Costly SSD like Samsung EVO, WD SSD which provides great read write speed. Or, You can buy more cheap SSD like Kingston SSD, Cheap but lower Read Write speeds.
Question 4: Can i Install Different OS in Caddy Drive?
✏️ Answer: Yes, You can install other Operating System in Caddy Drive like, Kali Linux, Ubuntu, Older Windows 10 or 7. Check this video: • How to Install Kali Li...
Question 5: What to do if i don't have DVD Writer?
✏️ Answer: Most you can do, install SSD by replacing HDD (to speed up the Laptop) and, make the HDD an External Hard Drive using a 2.5" USB HDD Enclosure.

03:30 Which size 9.5mm or 12.7mm?
06:23 Partition of old HDD
08:12 Tutorial End's
=======================================
Why SSD upgrade is needed, in old laptops there is always a HDD installed of 500GB, 320GB or 1TB with the Windows or Linux OS (Operating System) installed on it. As we know HDD is slow to boot and load times of applications are slow too. Installing a OS on SSD and by making is primary drive brings us 5x faster boot and load times in work.
Most of the people are confused on 9.5mm vs 12.7mm caddy, which size of the caddy enclosure you need. In time very old laptop like thinkpad or office laptop where comes with the 12.7mm DVD ROM but after some time all laptop comes with 9.5mm ROM and they discontinued now days. To find it out which size all you need to take out the DVD Writer from laptop and measure it with a scale or cm ruler as shown in the video.

I installed one recently and it didn't work so I decided to look for answers and ended up here. I bought a new hard drive and wanted the old one not to go to waste so I mounted it into a caddy but when I switch on the PC it doesn't show up so I thought maybe it doesn't work.

What Happen to all My Files in HDD After SSD Installation?
Can we replace old hhd with new ssd
Mast video
Thx
Hi is the caddy for lenovo ideapad 100 2015 model 9.5mm or 12.7mm? how to choose for the option available ?
Check the video at 3:55 👍
The process you followed is exactly what I want to do. But the only difference is I don't want to format the hdd. Is there any way to do so???
Copy your important data to the SSD, if you have huge data then borrow any external HDD from friends and make a backup. You can put some data on Google drive or One drive too. You can put some data on your smartphone if there is some storage left 😅
Which precision screwdriver set r u using, i need to buy. Can you tell the price and send link of screwdriver set?
Those are just simple screwdriver and pry tool, you can get it from any mobile parts shop.
Sir i have 2 tb hdd is it good to install it on caddy or mount same crucial 250gb ssd in caddy.
I have a 2TB HDD also... how did you go about it??? 😢
I already installed gigabyte sata ssd in my hdd port and using hdd with caddy, can i remove hdd from caddy or use another ssd in caddy , at one time 2 ssd
Yes, no problem. It would be more better 👍
Just to clarify since my Laptop doesnt have a removable Battery do I just procede as Usual or is there something else I need to do? :o
What lap top is that?? If it has a battery open it up and disconnect it before proceeding I guess
battery still has a connector that can be removed from the motherboard, which is recommended when doing anything electrical
I have used caddy for hard disk but it Gen 2 aata and the hard disk is getting disconnected frequently any solution?
Usally CD-DVD ROM sata2...
Bro after using caddy can we eject it and use in another laptop's caddy. Hope you will understand what I wants to say....... Reply?
No you can't eject it any more, the eject system was in the DVD writer. All you can do you can unscrew the HDD from Caddy to use it in any other place.
@@TrickiKnow which is batter caddy or HDD enclosure
Bro. I have did the same thing with my laptop but My hard drive storage sometimes disappears and then appears again in my pc, why this happens? Please help
Same here
When opening the drive and playing movies,music etc for like 3 to 5 minutes my drive will go to 100% activity in the task manager,after that i wont be able to play or acces files it says the file is missing 😢
Sir i installed a ssd in a caddy and after booting up.... the previous windows of hard disk is detecting my ssd and working perfectly but whenever i try to install windows or any other os it fails to.... On windows installation wizard it stucks on purple screen i tried many times but still same any solution for this problem ?
Make the SSD first boot device in bios, then delete create partitions of HDD after taking backup of your files. This will make the SSD the primary drive.
@@TrickiKnow i done everything sir but still same
@@TrickiKnow i migrated windows too but it shawing unable to read disk
@@TrickiKnow is it possible that caddy is defective
@@vikarantshrestha9590 Make sure during installation, keep other harddrive out of the laptop. Like this: th-cam.com/video/ye8m5wIus0M/w-d-xo.html
Why didn't you install ssd directly on caddy
Speed can be reduced by putting ssd on caddy...
@@16_prathamesh416 the reason he did so is different. If you install on DVD slot, you need to change boot settings.
Because there's some laptops that doesn't have sata 3 port in CD reader so the SSD read and write will be reduced then you will lose a lots of performance
from your SSD that's why you must insert the SSD into your motherboard
I hope you understand now ❤
@@carnagegaming4200 understood now. Thank you
Bhai
Migration of OS and other imp. bulk software in ssd is better
Or
Fresh installation of OS ..?
Fresh installation is always better 👍
Can upgrade SSD drive and HDD drive
Yes, no problem you can upgrade them both of your choice.
So now this caddy will will not open anymore or still can open?
No, it will not eject 🙂
9 minutes for something that others show how to do it in 2 and did not even explain what is the small switch in the hdd caddy?
long Time ⌛️
Yes, responsibility as father. Thanks for watching 😊
How to install wundow 10 in caddy
Do I really need to reformat the old hdd?
I didn't and works just fine
Delete the system 32 files
Guys don't buy any Amazon choice product because Amazon's choice product doesn't have any returnable policy.
I purchased caddy 12.5mm but my laptop supports a 9.5mm caddy but I can't replace the product 😕
A bit late to the party, arent you?
Yes, but it is just a remastered version of my old video, How to install 2 hard drive in 1 laptop. This is more clearer than before. BTW, than you so much for watching 😊
Can I boot (I want to dual boot) Linux from caddy?
My laptop upgrade is there
