Can I use second HDD on my Satellite P300-PSPCCE?

Hi all

I have a German P300-PSPCCE bought a few months ago. I noticed that the laptop has two bays for 2.5 "sata DISKS, which one is already ocupied by the drive by default, and the other has some ankles plastic on the portable drive door, which makes impossible to another harddrive on the Bay.

The question is: if I remove the pins plastic of the door drive and put another HARD disk, with appropriate fixing stuff, the laptop can handle? (power, motherboard compatibility and so on...)

The second is:

Recently, I had an old P200 mother due to a bad Connection USB with an experimental device that I developed burn.
Now it s hard to find this old P200 motherboard.
I m planning to buy a motherboard of the P300-PSPCCE mine, but I Don t know where to find such a thing, so I m asking if anyone knows where I can find it, please can U show me the way?

Thanks for any answers

Daniel.

Hello Daniel

My brother has Satellite P300 and we found the same situation.
Most important is if your laptop has connector to the second HARD drive. If so, you can connect but it needs the HARD drive cover.
My brother has deleted these rods plastic carefully and everything is OK now. It uses 250 GB SATA HDD.

Old motherboard, you can try to get a Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.
Another way Google a little bit and see if you can find some online store where you can order one.
Another option is to check eBay.
Maybe you can find some old P200 with broken screen, but with good working motherboard.

  • Satellite P300 PSPCCE: Atheros AR9281 wireless network adapter are not all networks

    I have a Satellite P300 PSPCCE with Atheros AR9281 wireless network.

    After a clean install of Windows 7, I can't see wireless networks, unless I connect an Ethernet cable to my wired network card.

    As soon as I take the cable on wireless networks disappear. This computer had Vista and it worked fine there. I tried latest drivers available from Toshiba, but that makes no difference.

    I have tried disabling the wireless and turn market as well with the FN and F8 key and switch on the front. I also tried to uninstall. But it's always the same.

    If someone has had this problem and is there a solution to this?

    Bjarni cordially

    Hi mate

    To be honest I never did experience even with a WiFi card and I have no idea why the LAN cable affects WLan card functionality, it makes no sense to me!

    First, I recommend that you check the settings of the router and reset if necessary
    In addition, you should go to the s for laptop BIOS settings and set its default value.
    Check the version of the BIOS if newest is available, then an update would be worth a try

    You use the Atheros Wlan configuration tool?
    If this is not the case, try this out!
    It s a configuration tool that could be used instead of owning windows wlan settings

  • VAP for Win7 64 bit affects WLan speed - Satellite P300 PSPCCE

    I managed to get windows 7 Professional (64 bit), windows update pretty much installed all updates.
    Without any problem, but there are a few things that are not.
    Shortcuts keyboard and track pad mouse drivers. I went on the site of toshiba, and then downloaded and installed the value pack. All drivers worked fine, but I noticed the drivers provided by toshiba for the WiFi card shall provide to 65mbps.

    I left it for a few hours and the speeds fluctuate at all, when I did a system restore and used the original drivers found by windows update that my WiFi connection was between 117 Mbps and 150mbps.
    I don't want to use the toshiba value pack, because it will ruin the wifi drivers, I tried to update the drivers but they would not work.

    Is it possible to have the drivers for the hot key functions and the mouse/trackpad separately?
    I want to use, if not of Toshiba admins can split you the Pack of value so I can install 2 drivers.

    I forgot to mention: I have the Satellite P300 PSPCCE

    Hello

    > Is it possible to have the drivers for the hot key functions and the mouse/trackpad separately?
    I doubt that this is possible. The VAP is a package that contains various tools and utilities, and the whole package cannot be tapered.

    To be honest I m not very well why the PPV should slow down the Wlan.
    But I have an idea;

    The PPV contains the Toshiba power saver. It allows Vista power management options.
    For example, there is an option of settings of the adapter wireless-> energy saving Mode
    There are four energy saving / performance parameters. If your Wi - Fi connection is unstable or slow, try selecting a higher performance tuning.

    You can also go to-> Wlan card properties Device Manager and there you can find some tabs.
    In an Advanced tab, you can change the setting to get more speed.

  • Re: Satellite P300 PSPCCE - wakes up to the top by itself

    My Satellite P300 pspcce starts to turn more * on * after I manually dump it * off *.
    This happends in the minute following the judgment.

    I started noticing this after that I installed my wireless card, I turned the wake on lan/wlan function * off * in the Bios. But it does not help...

    Before installation of the Wlan card the computer woke up from his sleep too, but not when it was closed.

    I looked in properties of the Wlan card but I couldn't find any wake-up function.

    Any ideas where to look next?

    Hello

    As far as I know THAT BIOS includes more options wake up; so I also recommend disabling these options
    Wake on keyboard
    -Battery clock criticism
    - and Wake-up on LAN (but it seems that you have already disabled)

    In addition, the LAN card support a wake on LAN function in the own properties.
    You should check this in the Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab LAN card.

    Also, I read that it automatically updates windows could wake the portable computer too. Try to disable the receipt of the update and check if it would improve your situation.

    Configuration for both models is the same.

  • Can I use SATA HDD on Satellite L20-183?

    I have a satellite L20-183 with a P - ATA hard drive connector. Is it possible to change the connector to a SATA hard? Where can I find such a connector for my model?

    Thank you.

    When you open the cover of the HARD drive, you will see there is not a lot of room inside and behind the HARD drive, there is a single cm only. You need this place for HDD disconnect with this adapter so I think there is no way to put the HARD drive inside or out of the place.

    In any case, I'm 100% sure that these updates is not possible.

  • Can I use the ATI on my Satellite A200 driver?

    Hello all, dear Toshiba

    I want to update the driver for the graphics card ATI Radeon HD 2600 in my Satellite A200-PQ notebook, I'm having some problems with effecs Nik HDR pro Photoshop 4.0.

    However the driver I find here, it's 2008, the one I have already.
    ATI offers a newer driver but explicitly do not recommend it for Toshiba laptops.

    So, can someone tell me if there is no serious problem with the last - or at least one driver more recent-of ATI on my laptop?

    Help is greatly appreciated

    Nissrine

    Hi Libertion

    The point is that these ATI drivers don t support protection against overheating.
    Drivers Toshiba support GPU overheating protection and control the GPU heat dissipation.

    If you want you can install the ATI driver but the use of these drivers is at your own risk.

  • Can I use other recovery CD portable satellite to install OS?

    Hello!

    First of all, sorry for my English. I live in Poland and I have a little problem. I was bought by Satellite 1900 of the United Kingdom 3 years ago. There is a problem, because I lost my restore CD. Polish Service point recovery CD is very expensive. It will cost many their Win XP OEM System. I can buy the Satellite 1135 recovery, but I have now is working with my S1900?

    What do you think?
    Please help me.

    Hello

    Something like this is not possible because the restore CD is created for each laptop model separately. It is not a kind of universal recovery image.

    Each recovery image contains drivers, tools and utilities designed for the specific cell phone model. For this reason you cannot compare these two notebooks of Satellite and the two laptops are completely different.

    Use Microsoft installations CD and also offered the drivers, tools and utilities on Toshiba download page.

  • I can add a 2nd HDD on my Satellite A300 - 02c?

    Hi all

    I wonder if it is possible to add a 2nd HDD in my A300 - 02c?
    There is a HDD 2 slot, but no sata connector on the card (see the link to the image).

    http://www.NotebookReview.com/picture.asp?f=36752

    I wonder if it is possible to add the connector (by myself or by the customer service).
    If anyone knows if it is possible and where can I buy the sata connector... Please leave a comment :)

    Adrien.

    I think that there is nothing you can do about it.
    Satellite A300 comes with several different hardware configurations and several different mothers. Really, I don't think that you can add it in addition.

    FYI exact nearest maintainer contact authorized Toshiba and ask for help.

    If anyone has any experience with this stuff then the Toshiba service technicians.

    I have used Google for this part number of the HARD drive and is it true that this HARD drive is 120 GB and SATA interface?

    If so I'm pretty sure that this HARD drive will work in the Satellite L40 because it has a SATA interface and I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work.
    How do you think about this?
