Thanks! This actually helped me to follow along and replace my memory this morning. You showed and mentioned some key details: 1-release the current memory boards by releasing side metal ‘arms’, 2-be careful to align the pins, 3-be sure to click F1 or F2 when the machine boots back up.
When fitting an SSD you need a spacer to make the plugs align on the SSD. It doesn't do this automatically as the SSD is thinner by about 2mm. This is why you need a spacer
That may be the case in certain model/brand laptops but it is not the case with Dells in my experience. I have fit multiple solid-state drives without buying that specialized adapter. It is possible to slot them in but you’ve got to finesse it into the sata port. So long as you can get it to connect the 3 mm x 5 mm hard drive screws will sinch it down and hold it in place.
I had the same issue with Samsung EVO and ADATA SSD on two different E6410. Due to the difference in thickness of SSD and HDD the SSD was not clicking into the SATA connector just like you mentioned. I didn't have the longer screws handy and realized the problem is with the alignment of the connectors, I just flipped the laptop and use gravity to align and it worked.
The ram you are installing is PC3-12800 which means 1600 Mhz. If you check the video, it shows that Bios is acepting only 1066 Mhz. So you are losing 534 MhZ. You should have installed PC3-8500 which gives the 1066 Mhz.
Doesn't matter. If you install a 1666 Mhz and your motherboard can only handle 1066 Mhz, it will slow down, by reading the info on the SPD chip in your memories, to match the fastest it can handles. You can change that behavior in BIOS, but usually this is not a very good idea. Plus we came to a point where slower memories can be more expensive than faster ones, so might be a good idea to get faster memories, plus you can use them later if you upgrade your system where the faster mode is used.
I actually started using Dell E6410 And I wanted to use my 1TB as my internal HDD. Of which it entered the port properly but I was also trying to install to do a Fresh windows 10 upgrade . It's got to 27% and got stuck there. I repeated this process twice or there about but the result was still the same. My question is what could be the problem of the cause of the malfunction????
when changing from a rotary drive to an SSD you MUST use a spacer to keep the SSD aligned to the SATA plug. These spacers cost a a few pennies from the likes of EBAY etc and will make the SSD align correctly with the SATA plug on the laptop.
when i upgraded to windows 10, my lcd kept disconnecting, and to see the screen i had to connect to an external monitor. When I boot the laptop, it works fine, but about 2 mins into windows, the screen turns itself off... any fixes?
Try updating your video driver from dell.com/support. If this does not work remove the service panel and disconnect and reconnect the LCD cable to the motherboard. If that does not work there’s a strong possibility that you are going to need to replace your LCD screen and inverter assembly because of either a faulty inverter or faulty LCD backlight.
Hello, the dell latitude E 6410 will support one gigabyte 2 GB 4 GB and max out at 8 GB of installed ram with one 4 GB stick occupying each ram slot. However, you need to be careful if you are going to upgrade because these laptops used two different types of RAM. One type of RAM was 8500 you the other type of RAM was 10600 you. If you were machine has the Intel core I five 540m and lower you will need the 8500 you. If it has the 580 M and higher you can use either the 8500 you or the 10 600 you which goes all the way up to 1333 MHz. The limitation is in the front side bus of the processors that could be installed in the E 6410. The core I three and the lower spec high-fives had a maximum front side bus of between 800 MHz and 1066 MHz. As such the type of RAM will need to match the maximum front side bus. The core I seven processor‘s Had a front side bus of between 1066 MHz and 1333 MHz
Maybe. I did some research, and found a Reddit post about a guy running GTA 5 with low settings on his e6400 which obviously has lower specs than the e6410, and he was running it at around 20-30 fps. Also it reaches the required specs in everything except for the GPU. My e6410's ram has died so maybe I'll test it when I replace the ram.
