Method of installing WINDOWS7 system on Solid State drive

Mechanical hard disk is still at a high price, and the previous aristocracy-solid-state hard disk has a larger price reduction, solid-state hard drive is not cost-effective, but can improve the performance of the system is really big. If you don't want to waste time on the system's drag-and-drop startup and slow running of the program, it's recommended that you use a solid-state drive to install the system. And now the system that best allows solid-state drives to function is Windows7, abandoning the old XP system. Below, follow the Win7 system download station to see how Windows7 is to make the performance of solid-state hard disk to be doubled.

How to install Win7 on solid-state hard disk

First, we're going to let Windows7 on a solid-state drive. Surprisingly, loading the WINDOWS7 installation image on other systems via daemon tools does not successfully install on a solid-state hard drive. We still use WINDOWS7 installation disk or USB drive to guide the installation of Windows7. The WINDOWS7 installation process is no longer redundant. Note here: Before installing Windows7, be sure to set the operating mode of the hard drive to AHCI, otherwise the performance loss is not small, AHCI is the Serial ATA Advanced Master interface of English abbreviation, it is Intel's leading technology, it allows the storage driver to enable advanced SATA features, such as native command queues (NCQ) and hot-swappable. After AHCI can play the potential performance of SATA hard drive, theoretically can increase 30% of the hard disk read and write speed, because the mechanical hard drive internal transmission rate is low, AHCI can improve performance is very limited, but for solid-state hard disk is indeed very effective.

Here I introduce you to the way the BIOS opens the AHCI disk mode.

At power-on startup, press Del to enter the BIOS menu. We press the LEFT ARROW key to enter the "Chinpset" (chipset) menu. Then, select the "Southbridge Configuration" (South Bridge Configuration) feature menu to enter. Next, select Onchip SATA type (onboard SATA types), set it to "AHCI", and press F10 to save the exit.
