Lenovo Y50 - Can the SSD part of Hybrid Drive be turned off?

I have a Y50 with a 1TB HDD + 8GB SSD Hybrid drive.I have heard and sometimes experienced in some games that the SSD part of the drive sometimes act as a hindrance to smooth perfomance.Can anyone tell me on a way to turn the SSD part off?

None of these replies addressed the reason for my original question.
I do appreciate the answers however I see I should have been a bit more thorough in my query.
I know how the fusion works.  I know you can get a 1 tb ssd with the imac.
I also know that it is very very expensive to get a pure pcie 1 tb ssd as an option.
The reason for my question is to see if the sata ssd which is a little slower and also much much cheaper than pcie flash ssds can be used instead of the slow
hdd in the fusion configuration.  I have ordered the 512 gb pcie flash for my imac so I am committed to pure ssd.  I would still like to know if
what I mentioned is possible as a much less expensive option.
Sorry for the confusion but in a rather lengthy search throughout the net and asking Apple's Geniuses I have been as yet unable to get any answer.
It would seem to me that using a sata ssd instead of a sata hdd would be nothing but beneficial in the fusion setup.

  • Can the 'preventing widows and orphans' option be turned off?

    Can I turn off the 'preventing widows and orphans' option and not use it on my document?

    In Pages 5 (we assume):
    Format > Text > More > uncheck the options
    It is a paragraph attribute so you need to select the text you want to apply it to.
    Then resave the styles that apply to that text.

  • On the top of any web page, the hot spots will not work. It seems like the links in the header part of a page is turned off.

    On any web page (Facebook, Yahoo, this page) the links on the top of the page will not work. The hot spots seem dead. For this page the Desktop/Mobile/Firefox Home links will not work.

    The Yahoo Toolbar has been reported as causing that. Disable it or uninstall it.

  • Between the 2 fusion drives , 1 is 1tb 5400RPM and 1 is 1tb 7200RPM, will you see much difference in speed as I understand the speed comes from the ssd part..?

    Will it not be noticeable?

    It would not be as noticable as one would think. The speed of the OS will come from the SSD portion of the drive. The SATA portion is mostly used for data storage which the drive only has to access as needed, not constantly. So over all, there is a bit of a difference but not enough to make a big impact.

  • Hacker problems so I reloaded Snow Leopard. Afterwards, Mac had to delete 798 items. Now looping on 4 items to delete for the past 2 weeks. Can't reboot, reload, or restart. I have to let the battery run down for it to turn off. How to fix this, please?

    I had hacker problems so I reloaded Snow Leopard. Afterwards, Mac had to delete 798 items. Now it is looping on 4 items to delete for the past 2 weeks. I can't reboot, reload, or restart. I have to let the battery run down for it to turn off. I think a big part of the problem is that someon one the internet (the hacker) was mirroring my hard drive. It seems to have locked up my system. I could be wrong about this guess, though. All I do know is that it is now looping on the last 4 iems, and I can't do anything.
    Well, I can get it to turn on, but all it does is continously try to delete the last 4 items. When I try to reload Snow Leopard, it tells me my hard drive is full and that I need to delete items.
    Can anyone help? I am so lost without my Mac. I am back on the PC, and though it works, I'm sure many of you will understand when I say it's just not a Mac.
    Thanks.

    I installed Snow Leopard using my Apple external Superdrive. I followed directions I found on the Apple site. Here is the article info:  Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install  
                     Article HT3910
                     located at: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910
    Everything was going smoothly until I got to the reinstall part. I had to choose to reinstall on a hard drive or network drive. I've never used a network drive; just the hard drive. It seems that's where the troubles began. I selected the hard drive. It seemed to go well, and then I got the message that I needed to delete some files because I was out of space. I chose to get rid of my music files, but, there were only 636. I don't know what the rest of the files were. I was using the Secure Empty Trash command.
    That was my first time doing an erase and install. I tried to do it again, but I now get a continuous error telling me that my hard drive is full and I must delete files. Only I can't delete files because 4 files are still being deleted and my computer won't let me stop the process.
    I found out about the hackers mostly by the fact that whenever I used to watch something like Hulu or Netflix, I never had problems with internet connection or speed. Lately, I had internet connection problems. I went in to check my settings for my internet provider and found out the settings had been changed to public and all these extra computers were connected to my network.

  • I updated my iPhone with the new update..and afterwards it turned off and instead of turning back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes..then iTunes tells me my phone is in recovery mode and I need to restore it..is there anything I can do w/o restoring?

    I updated my iPhone with the new update..and then it turned off...instead of turning back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes..and when I do iTunes tells me that my phone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored..is there anything I can do without restoring it?

    Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

  • I reset my 3Gs, but now all I get is the Apple icon. It won't turn off or anything. Is it bricked? What is bricked? How do I fix it please. Can anyone help me please.

    Hi, I've just appear to have deleted my iphone and now all I'm getting is the Apple icon.
    It won't turn off or anything. I have tried holding in the off button and home button together,
    but the icon goes and comes back again. It won't connect to Itunes, as the device is not showing
    up. Can anyone HELP PLEASE. I think I need to reload Iphone back onto the device.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your phone:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • HT1430 I downloaded the lateest update and I can't turn off my apps like I did on 6os. The 7os is different and I can't seem to find out if apps turn off now by just closing them. Can anyone explain this to me? Please

    Double tap the Home button and swipe the app preview page up
    iOS 7  also allows apps to run while they aren't open.
    You can manage these here:

  • Can the mac osxlion usb jump drive be used after as a external drive for storing media files

    can the mac osxlion usb jump drive be used after as a external drive for storing media files

    If you are talking about the Lion install USB thumb drive sold by Apple then no it can't. it has some specail formatting that makes it show up as a DVD drive and is securely locked from any changes.
    But I must ask why would you want to. That would destroy that drive and wipe out the Lion installer.
    USB thumb drive can be bought for $8.

    I tried the hard start and still the same! If I go under artist
    I can get it to start playing one song. Then if I try shuffle
    Nothing !! Then I can't get it to play anymore.
    Very annoying

  • I am trying to attend an online class, but can't get to it.  i called the instructor and she told me to turn off the popup blocker.  do i have one of those?

    I am trying to attend an online class, but can't get to it.  i called the instructor and she told me to turn off the popup blocker.  do i have one of those?

    You didn't mention what web browser you are using so it's hard to say.
    One quick thing you can try if you need to log into the class right now is to download a different browser. Assuming you're using Safari, some possible alternatives include Firefox by Mozilla, and Chrome by Google.
    If you continue to experience problems please provide more information about the iMac, version of the Mac OS, and which browser version you are using. Most browsers have the ability to block pop-up windows. You just need to check your options. Here's what it looks like in the current version of Safari.

  • Firefox 4.0 The menus flash like a keyboard key is held down. Can't access them even with all plugins turned off. Same issue on multiple machines with different versions of Windows. How can this be resolved?

    FF 4.0. The menus flash like a key is being held down making them inaccessible. The problem persists with all plugin's turned off. Firefox box in top left corner not showing. The old FF logo show there instead.

    Turning off hardware acceleration worked in all cases.
    With hardware acceleration enabled the menu flashing did not occur on the primary display, only the secondary display of a two-monitor system.
