Adding additional partition D for Portege Z930 with that 256SSD

I just got a new portege Z930 i7 with 256 ssd and Win7 pro 64. It starts with 4 partitions already installed.1.46Gb recovery, 217 GB C, 8 GB hibernation and a 11.9 primary with the only option to remove.

I can shrink the C drive to 110 GB offering 110 GB unallocated. But if I try to format the unallocated space it tells me that this will change to dynamic disks and there is not enough space.
I have a D drive for the data. How to do this?

Hello

I recommend to use the 3rd party software called * Gparted.*
It of based on the system Linux and you could create bootable USB flash memory stick containing Gparted tool.

It is great for partition management.

  • How to partition my new Portege Z930 HARD drive?

    Hi all

    I recently bought the Toshiba Portege Z930. I would like to create a new partition (for example D: /) on your hard drive, to store data, music, etc., and let the current C: / drive only for the use of the operating system.

    The problem is that I can't follow the normal procedure of partitioning my HD (via the Windows disc or by other software such as EaseUS Manager) because my Portege Z930 already has 4 primary partition created by default! Namely, these are:
    -1 1.46 GB recovery partition
    -1 8 GB hibernation partition
    -1 (hidden) 9.96 GB primary partition and finally
    -1 219 GB main partition

    As said, there are currently 4 primary partitions, which corresponds to the maximum number of primary partitions, I have. To create a new partition, one of these 4 must be transformed into a logical partition.

    I don't have to know if such a thing would be correct, or it would be the cause of the problems of the operating system etc. Also, I don't know which of the 4 above is more appropriate be transformed into a logical partition...
    I tried to contact Toshiba but the contact is very difficult with them.

    (1) does anyone have an opinion well informed about this?... happened... ?
    (2) I should I turn one of the 4 primary partitions above in a logic (and if so, where?)
    (3) what is the use of 4 partitions mentioned above?

    Thanks in advance for your comments,

    Hello
    Windows 7 is pre-installed on this laptop?
    Windows 7 needs the first (1.46 GB) partition to store files for the repair of the system.
    For example: in case something goes wrong with the Windows 7 system is able to automatically repair and this backup files on that partition. Don t touch!

    The primary partition (hidden) 9.96 GB seems to contain the image of Toshiba files.

    These image and music files is very important in the case where you want to create the Toshiba recovery disc (or USB) or you want to retrieve the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery option. Don t touch if you haven't created the recovery disc!

    The main score of 219 GB seems to be the system partition. This partition contains the Win 7 OS.
    The 8 GB partition is not known to me but you wrote there seems to be a hibernation partition. Maybe its required for hibernation data.

    However, first I recommend you to create a recovery disk.
    It is an essential environment where you want to set the laptop back to factory settings.
    You can change the partitions on the HARD disk.

    In General, you can have 3 primary and 1 extended partition or 4 primary partitions.
    Extended partitions can contain logical partitions for example: private data.

  • Motherboard for Portege Z930 B113 must send to the Brazil

    Hey, * I live in the Brazil and bought a laptop Portege Z930-B113 in Dubai on a trip.
    The same evil work and burned its motherboard, and now his need for a new.

    As here in the Brazil is not supported and toshiba do not sell parts for this ultrabook,
    Could someone send me an email or a store to buy this motherboard, with an international expedition to the site?

    If you need to request more information.

    Thank you.

    Portege Z930-B113 belongs to the PT234V series.
    I guess that this series was not available in North or South America.

    But the PT234U of Z935-P390 similar to Toshiba Portege is out on the American market.
    It should support the same motherboard, so I guess you could get the motherboard for Portege Z935-P390 to the Brazil that should be compatible with your Z930 B113 Portégé

  • Maximum memory for Portege Z930 - 14L

    Hello

    I have a Portege Z930 - 14L with 8 GB memory and wonder what is the maximum memory I can add? I saw the following in the description, but I don't understand if this means that the maximum is 12 GB (4 GB onboard + 8 GB expansion) or 16 GB (2x8GB)

    Standard system memory: 8 192 (4 069 + 4 069 onboard) MB
    maximum extension: 8 192 MB
    technology: DDR3 RAM (1,600 MHz)

    Thank you
    Markus

    If I understand this right info your a Portege already maximum RAM.
    Is that your laptop Portege can manage with 8 GB memory max. On board, there are already 4 GB and there is only one slot of RAM available for upgrade that also contains a 4 GB RAM module.
    In other words, your laptop is already maximum RAM and upgrade is not possible.

    The mSATA connector resembles the miniPCI connector, but they are totally different.

  • Are adapters CA / CC for Portege Z930 and Kira-701 compatible?

    Hello friends,

    My boss has a Toshiba Z-930 ultra-livre and power adapters about 10 - 12 for him around the world in his various homes and offices.

    He now plans on changing his computer. The same power adapters will work on the laptop Toshiba KIRA-701 or not? I tried to look to the top of the internet, but could not find any confirmation.

    If the 701 Kira is not compatible with the old charger so must be changed every 10-12 power adapters.

    Can someone help me with this information? The power adapters are not compatible so I might as well consider other brands, so I would have to change anyway all the power adapters.

    Thank you in advance.

    Umair

    Sorry, but I must ask you this question: do you want to buy new notebook without adaptors CA / CC and the use of old adapters CA / CC with the new machines?
    Sorry, but it makes no sense to me.
    Even if you want to exchange machine you, what you want to do with Z930 machines without adaptors CA / CC? It does not seem logical to me.

    In any case, I found the info that both models have adapters sector with the same output voltage: output current V. 19: 2.37 A so I think that both machines use the same adapter.

    I hope someone who own that Kira 701 can confirm this.

  • Where to find Windows XP added value package (VAP) for Portege R500

    Where can I find VAR for Windows XP for the R500 (SSD, without optical drive)? Because otherwise the fn keys do not work...
    I tried to bypass the checking the version of Vista.

    I customized and choose some options. Some fn keys work, others do not. And when we don't have each function key stop until I run flash back to zero (or something like that).

    When can I suspect the VAR for XP software?

    Sorry, but VAP (which means added Vista package) doesn't exist for Windows XP.
    As the name already says s a package of Vista and is designed ONLY for Vista!

    The FN keys are usually common Modules controller running on Windows XP.
    So please make sure that this tool is installed.
    In addition it is very important that all Toshiba drivers are installed in the correct order as mentioned in the installation instructions!

  • Cannot open a new tab (additional) today! What's up with that?

    In this latest version, the "+" at the end of the line is no longer opens a new tab. Nothing happens except the screen that says it will open a new tab. I'm on version Beta 30 and who says that I am up to date. I thought I saw a 'flash' that 31 of the beta was available. Saw it once so I don't know. It is a NEW issue for me, and I've been on Beta 30 for awhile.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting on the problem

  • Portege Z930 - display driver does not work properly

    Hello

    We have a Portege Z930 with Windows 7 64 bit in use where the Intel display driver seem to work fine.

    First problem is the slow presentation on screen - if we open a (simple JPG) photo and move the window, the frame window break during the move and showed very weird.

    Then, we have installed a U3.0 dynadock docking for the use of two external displays more. This method works even worse. To the docking station, we used the driver from the CD supplied in the delivery and connect to a USB 3.0 connector.

    On starting switching on 2 screens instead of internally for computer laptop screen does not work - and we use workaround of using an extended desktop on all 3 displays (2 external and internal display for laptop as the third).

    In Internet Explorer, it should turn off GPU Rendering and use Software Rendering rather because otherwise, we observed critical irregularities on the external screens (with 2 Windows Open the screen froze or could not display Windows Mobile). However the display isn't satisfactioning.

    We have tried 3 different versions of the recommended Driver Intel which is also offered by Toshiba to download; We loaded it is there and also 2 versions more (a more recent, one older) Intel directly.

    So, how can we get this working properly?

    Thanks in advance and best regards,
    N. Cochems

    More importantly. Make sure you have Service Pack 1 installed Win7. New laptops have problems running in win7 RTM (without service pack).

    It seems that Windows uses the standard VGA driver instead of the Intel driver. Uninstall all display drivers from Control Panel-> programs and features and then go to the Toshiba website and install the utility Intel Chipset then the Intel display driver, then go to DisplayLink.com and install the latest DisplayLink driver for the dynadock. The new software v7.xx DisplayLink driver fixes several issues found in v6.xx drivers.

    Verify that the Intel drivers are installed properly in Device Manager.

  • Portege Z930 - SDS Partitions

    I just got a Portege Z930 and explores various things until I'm heading on installation of software, etc.

    I noticed that 128 GB SDD related just 100 GB of space which seemed rather restrictive.

    So I checked and found that the drive has four partitions.

    1.46 GB labeled recovery Partition
    100 GB of the main boot partition
    4 GB labeled Hibernation Partition
    13.5 simply labeled GB main partition

    Given the limited space on the disk, I wonder if the 13 GB partition made something useful and if it could be deleted and added to the main partition to gain a few extra GB space...

    Anyone know what that the 13.5 GB partition for?

    Thanks in advance.

    Andrew

    Akuma is right. This partition is recorded recovery image that can be installed if something goes wrong with preinstalled operating system. Don t play with her and with the structure of partition before you have created a recovery media.

    Please read the document of the user s manual and create recovery media USB that you can use for installing the OS. After that, you can even format this 13 GB and use it to back up data.
