AshLikeSnow Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I recently purchased a Corsair 120Gb Force GT. (The red one) And the only way I could get it to fit into my laptop - U400 was to disassemble it. (The laptop is built for traditional laptop HDD.) - which don't have the small lip over the power - sata connectors that SSD's do. YES, I saw the VOID WARRANTY Sticker. I took that off and proceeded anyway. Now my question is: Is this bad for the SSD? Will their be heat issues etc? It is enclosed inside a laptop.

Toasted Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 You have voided your warranty. Yes, I would say that it is bad for the SSD. Especially the SATA connectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshLikeSnow Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 I wouldn't say voiding the warranty is bad for my SSD. Rather, I'd say a warranty voided is bad for my wallet if something goes wrong? Please elaborate on "sata connectors" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Depends how it is installed. If it is installed, in a way where the laptop conectors are bending the SSD's connectors then there may be problem. If it is installed straight and the SSD connectors are straight, you may want to put a non-conductive material to prevent it from bending when you are moving the laptop.
