Samsung SSD PM830 mSATA 32GB about to fail in XPS one27 All in One, how do I replace SSD drive for Intel RST ?
I own an XPS One27 All in One in Win 7 Ultimate.
RST is saying that my 32gb SSD drive is about to fail and I have to keep going in to reset it, then it errors again. Do I need to use RST for acceleration on the XPS one27 AIO or is there a safe way of switching it off? Alternatively how easy is it to replace?
thanks in advance for any advice - James - UK

Hi James,
I would suggest that you run the diagnostics on the computer by following the steps mentioned in the video below and check if there is any issue with the hardware on your system.

Hi Yannis,
you have to leave the old msata ssd in and go to RST and disable acceleration / dissaccociate the drive. shut down, put in new msata ssd, boot up and go to RST and then enable acceleration, RST will allow you to use 64gb max for acceleration on the drive, the rest of the ssd drive can be used as a data drive. to enable the data drive (other 64gb currently redundant), go to RUN diskmgmt.msc to enable the new drive and give it a name. you can then view and save to as normal drive.
Hope OK :-) - James

Hi James,
I would suggest that you disable the acceleration for the mSATA drive on the system and enable it again to check if it fixes the issue. Please follow the steps below to disable and follow the same steps in reverse order to enable back the acceleration.
Also, I would suggest that you run the diagnostics on the computer by following the steps mentioned in the video below and check if there is any issue with the hardware on your system.

thanks Rav, very much appreciated. Did as you said and it reinstalled the drivers. left for a while but still coming up with the error warning, I'll try the diagnostics from boot up, but did so through Dell PC Healthcheck and
SMART Status Test result was Failed WSD17-BP5
SMART Thresholds Test result was Failed WHD18-21F
regards

thank you Rav, it wouldn't let me enter the diagnostics as kept coming up with press F1 to continue or F2 to setup, i've since purchased a new mSATA SSD from Crucial and all seems to now be working fine, thank you for your assistance, very much appreciated
regards

Hi
I have a Dell XPS 8500 original configuration TAG Service tag removed per privacy policy>
Came with a 32gb mSATA ssd from Samsung PM830 set as an accelerator
Intel Rapid Technology reports that there is an error and sdd may fail
I bought a Crucial ssd mSATA 128gb to replace it
When I replace it and boot the system the screen (before windows 7 professional) shows that the HDD ST2000DM 001-9ym164 bootable hard drive is disabled and the new crucial was the bootable one but it will not start because it was empty - I wanted to function again as accelerator
ANy ideas what is wrong or how to fix this?
Thanks
Yannis

Hi
I had the same issue with the sdd and got a crucial one but when I replace it my system disabled the HDD boot drive and was trying to boot from the new sdd
Did you have similar issue and if yes how did you come around
Thank you
Yannis
