• How can I change the keyboard on Portege R500?

  Hello everyone,

  I get a Toshiba - 10J Portege R500, with the QWERTY keyboard.
  I want to change it with the QWERTY keyboard, because I usually use the French.

  But I don't know on the net the explanation or detail to achieve this.
  Someone get some photos or some tips to change the keyboard on this laptop.

  Thank you

  Do you want really to replace by yourself and lose the warranty?
  The Portégé R500 is a portable large company and I think that it s not the cheaper one.

  In your case, I would not risk losing the warranty.
  So ask the Toshiba service provider in your country for a keyboard layout AZERY-compatible and for replacement.

  I think that it s safe.

• I can add an internal dvd for Portege R500

  I have R500-S5008X, that had been built without an optical drive.

  Can I add the optical drive in my unit?

  If there is no optical drive Bay where you can install an optical drive, then you can not do.

  You might have to replace the motherboard, the coverage of basic, cable and other parts. It can be less expensive sale your R500 and buy the other R500 with a SIDE, or get a R600.

• Portege R500 - compatibility with Intel SSD 320 160 GB

  I installed an Intel 320 160 GB SSD in my Portege R500 (PPR50E).
  However, the BIOS does not detect the new drive. I updated the BIOS to the 1.60WIN version, the most recent that I found, but the drive is still not detected.

  Is there a possible solution? Or I need to take the drive?
  Thanks for any help

  It must be a problem of compatibility so I don't think you can force Portege to recognize this SSD.
  I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about m.

• Portege R500 - RAM and disk SSD upgrade

• Portege R500 - can I change the SSD?

  Hello. The question of replacement, replace the ssd.

  I myself PORTEGE R500 (PPR50U-02M01W version) with SAMSUNG_MCCOE64GQMPQ_SE805B0137. He has only 64 GB.

  I contacted Toshiba service asking to replace by something big, they said it's impossible! HOW DO I? It should be possible to replace the 64 GB SSD 256 GB SSD!

  If anyone can give me the link to SSD, who's going to fit 100% into my existing ssd will be very grateful!

  > I contacted Toshiba service asking to replace by something big, they said it's impossible! HOW DO I? It should be possible to replace the 64 GB SSD 256 GB SSD!

  And why wouldn't this possible? The technician said that?
  To my knowledge, it should be possible to use any disk SSD because SSD drives use the same interface as ordinary hard drives

  As far as I know there is a common controller SATA and SSD with SATA interface should work

  That s in my opinion

• Portege R500 and SSD update

  I have a Portege R500-S5006V with a 64 GB SSD installed.
  Currently I have space issues, but always so happy with this nice computer I don't want to replace it.

  Is it possible to upgrade to an SSD more? What kind of readers are compatible?
  I need to send to Toshiba, or a regular computer repair shop can do this for me?

  I think that the SSD in this machine is not a standard 2.5 "SATA or IDE Drive, it is 1.8" and has a ZIF connector and runs as an IDE device.

  Do a google search for "IDE ZIF SSD" and you will find a few commands which can be compatible. In theory, they should work in the R500, but I'm not 100% sure.

  An FSL can install for you for a fee.

  Agree with Akuma.
  You need an SSD that supports the SATA interface.

• Re: Portege R500-11 with SSD: I want to install Win XP

  Sorry if this is a common question, but I haven't had no luck with the research.

  I have a Portege R500-11 pair with SSD and I want their downgrade to XP. (speed issues)

  First question. Is it possible or are there problems?

  Second: I guess I have to install the SSD driver, with nlite or F6 during installation of the victory, but which is the correct driver? Can someone give me the exact link, please?

  Is this? Intel Storage Manager.

  Hello

  I am wanting to upgrade a laptop Toshiba-Portege-z30-a-10w of company SSD 128 to 512 SSD
  However when loading windows 7, it crashes when connecting with a blue screen error 0x00000001

  The SSD 512 that I use is
  http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/storage-SSD-M550

  and according to the
  http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/compat...Tege-Z30-a-10W

  It is compatible with the Toshiba portege-z30-a-10w
  I've updated the BIOS of the laptop to V4 30/04/2015 (which to my knowledge is the most recent)
  http://www.Toshiba.co.UK/innovation/...jsp?service=UK
  Moreover I have updated the firmware on the SSD 512 to what, in my view, is the last
  MU02 version

  However I still get the same problem with Windows 7 to break with a blue screen just before the opening of the session.

  All ideas

  I've never managed to install Windows 7... but I installed Windows 8 and goes on well...

  I have no why, but install Windows 8 seems to allow the 512 SSD to use

  Hope it will be useful.

• Portege R500 - can I use 3 GB of RAM?

  Hallo,
  may I ask if there is a way to start with 3 GB of RAM, so to use the the 1 GB that he will not be able to see as a ramdisk?

  Thank you.

  Hello!

  As far as I know that the Portege R500 can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM. Therefore, you need DDR2 667 MHz RAM.

  > in order to use the the 1 GB that he will not be able to see as a ramdisk?
  To be honest I n don't know what you mean with that.
  With special tools, you can create a virtual disk in RAM. Google for it.

  Good bye

• Portege R500 - Touchpad does not scroll after Windows 7 upgrade

  Hello!! Happy new year!!

  I got a great Christmas present, an upgrade to windows 7, so I upgraded the operating system of my Portege R500 of Bussiness from Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. Up here, the performance of the laptop has improved BUT the touchpad is not working properly and with correctly I mean that scrolling is not working more. I checked toshiba Web page downloads and there is no driver for the touchpad for windows 7. Is that what I can do to back the scroll function to work or is it just a matter of patience

  Thanks in advance for the help
  See you soon

  If you are certain that there is no driver Toshiba and is your Synaptics touchpad then try their drivers for Windows 7 [http://www.synaptics.com/support/drivers/]
