• Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello!

  I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
  I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
  Thank you very much for your help!

  These are the specs on the site

  Hey Buddy,

  In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

  Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
  Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
  I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

• Satellite A40-151 Possible HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

  RPM
  buffer
  Number of PINS
  Type of the ATA

  I was watching a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST980815A, if this helps answer the question.

  Hello

  I found the info your device comes with 40 GB IDE (ATA - 5) HARD drive. I think in your case, to capacity. High-capacity hard drives are not recognized properly, but I think that with 60 or 80 GB HDD should perhaps be recognized correctly.

  If anyone on this forum can give you accurate information, I recommend you contact your local dealer or service in your country. They are experts upgrade material and they have accurate info on HARD drive upgrade.

  Good luck!

• Tecra Z40 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  I bought the Z40 with a 500 GB HARD drive. As a replacement, I bought the next SSD:

  Crucial CT512MX100SSD1 - 500 GB

  Unfortunately I don't have to work. On the BIOS, I see that the system recognizes the ssd. But the boots of system restore, or windows 8.1 detail installs. Are there any known compatibility issues?

  Problems persist if the bios setting is UEFI oder CSM.

  I have upgraded to the latest version of the bios to 3.7, but that did not change the result.

  If the BIOS recognizes the new SSD drive, the drive must be visible to the system.
  May I ask how did you try to install the OS Windows 8.1?
  Have what media you used?

  The Z40 Tecra can't internal ODD (optical disc). This is why I m wondering about the installation procedure

• Is it possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  I wonder if it is possible to change the 500 GB HARD drive with an SSD on my HP Pavilion MS228sc?

  If 'yes', I guess I have to go for a SATA SSD if there is. But I have to worry about other specs?

  If 'Yes'... what could be.

  I googled my question but no answers... so I ty Wizzards :-) Forum

  @Lord_Nikon

  In fact, this is not true. As long as he uses a large SSD enough it will be able to use the recovery media. I suggest using a SSD of 256 or 512 GB if budgeted for the upgrade...

  He doesn't have to make a Windows 7 installation USB drive and use the activation key license on the certificate of authenticity from the PC Windows to perform a cleanup to install.

  One of them should be on your PC. The Prodct key is what is needed for installation and activation online.

  

• Backup failed through rescue recovery after HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  I have a T60p 8743 CTO with Vista Business. I upgraded from 2 GB to 4 GB and 100 GB to 500 GB HARD drive.

  The process that I did was to replace the old HDD with a new one. Recovery discs to load the vista on the new HARD drive. Then loaded the last backup of the old HARD drive. I assumed that I had all the features of the tools think vantage on the new HARD drive too.

  Now, I was intending to load the Linux operating system. Then when I tried to create a backup using rescue and recovery, I couldn't get fact.

  Could you please suggest me if there is a mistake in the procedure above. How to solve the current problem?

  Could I make a partition and load Linux with problem? I need Linux to my goal of research.

  I appreciate your help.

  Thanks in advance.

• Qosmio G30 - RAID may not reflect new 500 GB HARD drive

  I have installed 2 new identical 500 GB hard in my Qosmio G30 with Windows XP.

  The system works well, but the disc cannot be mirrored. Report of the Raid Controller is 'Normal Operation status.

  This disk cannot be used for mirroring because it is outside the management of the RAID."

  Who can tell me whether it is a disc error or is the drive of 500 GB to big for the toshiba with Windows XP raid controller?

  > Can anyone tell me if it of a disc error, or is the drive of 500 GB to big for the toshiba with Windows XP raid controller?

  Hmm. I m not very good, but it could be possible that the 500 GB HARD drive is too big for the mirroring of the mode.

  But have you tried to change the mode in comforter Toshiba RAID you might find in Toshiba Assist-> Protect Fix & -> RAID Console

  Check if you can switch to the mirroring.

  By the way; RAID-1 is defined in the BIOS?
  Usually, when you use RAID-1 configuration, the RAID is set to mirroring. In this case, the operating system recognizes the reduced ability to both hard drives (in your case, it is not important since you are using the two 500 GB HDD).

  Check it!

  For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

  The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

  Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

  More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

  Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

• HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  I want to put in a 60 GB SSD into the CD slot and want to see how fast it will support as this will be used for the Cache

  Thank you

  The published information is not explicit; He says only: SATA for the expansion Bay while the main hard drive Bay expressly says SATA-III. However, given that this isn't just an optical drive Bay, but also a general 'Bay expansion', it is safe to assume it of on the same SATA bus as main drive and is a SATA III interface.

  Data sheet

  6470b is also supposed to have a slot for a WSSD mSATA, but he is not described in the Manual:

  Manual

  Obviously the WSSD would work better for cache but you can use a 60 gig SSD in an expansion bay for both cache adapter. Even if the connection is SATA-II, it will be much faster to work for a cache of acceleration.

• I want to clone my original equipment existing 500 GB HARD drive to a new 1 TB HARD drive replacement. How?

  G ' Day,.

  I'm getting too big for my old 500 GB HARD drive, so I bought a new 1 TB HARD drive.

  Now I have all of the rescue disks that I made when I first got my laptop Compaq Presario CQ57-105TU . I could use them & fresh install all software & original OS, but then I have to start from scratch and re-install all the software I have installed, in addition to redo all adjustments & changes I made to the Windows 7 operating system since the first day - a year ago.

  Not really how I want to spend the next week or two around.

  I would like to clone the orig 500 GB HDD & all of its content to a new 1 TB of HARD drive.

  Sounds like where I want to go, but for 1 small question. I heard that if I just I'll have about 500 GB of space available new but I was also told that I will not be able to create new partitions of disk on the new HARD drive because of any existing partitions on the original HARD disk are created.

  1. is this true?

  2. in the case, where can I find a failsafe procedure to accomplish the clone, & then create 2 new partitions to cover the free space on the new drive.

  3. If so, is there a work around? If there is what is the procedure (plse give me cramps of brain with the jargon of techno... tnx)

  Some additional information that might be important.

  At the present time, my HARD drive has this configuration:

  

  Now that (Q) Local drive is diferent.  It shows 0 bytes available & 0 bytes used, & I don't have access to it.

  Computer of my wife... another laptop CQ62 model... also has the same drive,

  but hers is labeled as Microsoft Office 2010 Starter... as 0 bytes available & used - also no access, & as below, not showing is not in Dmgt.

  This drive does not appear in my Configuration of MANAGEMENT OF RECORDS : http://i.imgur.com/r4LPrDa.jpg

  Him early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese

  OK...'s done it!

  I used my CLONING HDD DOCKING STATION friends exactly like this, but he bought from a different seller 2 years ago.

  All I did was take my 500 GB drive original & placed in A slot (the front slot - Master) & I placed the new Toshiba 1 TB disk in slot B (the second slot behind Slot A... Middle - Slave). I turned the power on the box. I waited until readers spun & were ready, & I don't have a press the red button on the box...

  25% light started to blink & cloning began...

  About 40 minutes later 50% light began to Flash & the 25% brightness has remained stable.

  This means that 25%of the process has been done, & he went to 50%. .

  This sequence was continued until finally all the lights were on fixed (25% to 100%) which means that the clone was complete.

  I think it took about 2 hours and 15 minutes to clone completely.

  I closed the box power off. Then, I removed the two discs.

  I installed the new drive in the laptop carefully, & reinserted the battery, & I plugged power/charger/adapter sector of the laptop.

  Then, I ran into my fingers & press work / laptop computer shutdown.

  A few seconds my laptop has been as always to initialize.  I just had to check to make sure that I have installed the new drive... & Yes the one on the desk was the original, no doubt which means that my laptop startup disk was indeed the new drive I cloned just to.

  My laptop is started without fault!  without a hitch. Just as he always had.

  I used my computer management Administrative tool - disk management & made a simple volume for the 450 + GB of free space, affecting the next letter available player - in my car (F) case & I named it so.

  Everything worked perfectly, I can read & write on the new partition/volume. As I mentioned previously, I probably won't be able to start from scratch, but my drive (C), but it's fine for me.

  So, what have I learned?

  Well, first of all, my Compaq Presario CQ57-105TU can go to 1 TB of HARD drive without modification.

  Using the cloning method, I did no doubt saved full at least 1 weeks of resettlement work if I selected the new installation method using backup/rescue disks when the computer was first, I created started way back when.

  Outside the 2 + hours time, it took to clone the drive, 15 +/-minutes initially to remove & reinstall the drive, & the time it took to assign the new free space a drive letter (every 5-10 minutes) the procedure was clearly simple cut, I know could have been done differently, but not as simply as the method I chose.

  Pepe, thank you much for the time you spent researching my issues & responding to my message.

  I'm so glad all your fears & roadblocks have been made not, & in the end, it was possible to accomplish the task against our initial concerns - count in a very loose way with the greatest ease.

  Here are some pictures of the Station of Clone (the box) exactly like the one I used:

  Have you tried the drive in another computer?

  Maybe your new drive HARD isn t working properly or defective so use another rnotebook to test it or request a replacement HARD drive.
