• Can satellite A100-847 - I replace my current HARD drive with a SATA2 HARD drive?

  Hello

  I am currently using a Satellite A100-847 with a 100 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive. I plan to change with a Western Digital WD2500BEKT 250 GB SATA2 16 MB 2.5 inch laptop hard drive 7200 TRM. Is it possible to replace my current HARD drive which is SATA with a one SATA2?

  And if not what is my best option upgrade of the mine to a HARD fast (7200 RPM) disc?

  Hello!

  Yes, you can replace the current drive with a SATA2 HARD disk. You already have a SATA interface, and this means that you can use each HDD with SATA interface.

  I don't know Mr. but as far as I know the Satellite A100 cannot use the speed of SATA1. This means that the new HARD drive maybe won't work with SATA1 speed but there is no significant difference in performance.

  A HARD drive with 7200 RPM is really fast, but don t forget it produces more heat and needs more electric battery. A HARD disk at 5400 RPM is perhaps fast enough for you?

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite A100-692 - how to replace the CD/DVD drive?

  Hello

  the device DVD/combined my A100-692 is damaged and I want to replace it.
  I found no still no guide how to replace the unit.

  Is there something available?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello!

  AFAIK, you must remove the keyboard first, before you can replace the CD/DVD drive. Remove the screws on the lower side, and then you can push the disc if you have replaced the keyboard.
  It seems to be a bit tricky

  Maybe you should ask a technician for laptop to help. They can replace the CD/DVD drive for you.

  Good bye

• Satellite X 200 and replace the HD-DVD player

  G ' Day

  I'm looking to replace the HD-DVD drive in my Toshiba X 200 (PSPBUA-00N007) with a Blu - Ray player (or burner). They are on the market yet and available at Toshiba (or, say, eBay)? What should I look for?

  The HD-DVD player is a cool historical anachronism, but Blu - Ray will probably be a little more useful for me in the future.

  Cheers for the help.

  Hello

  As far as I know, there are some Blueray drives on the market that can be used in the notebook. But the fact is that not all readers are compatible because different master/slave/c-salt settings.

  I didn t find information on compatible BR readers. I guess you will have to test it yourself.

  I found this thread:

  The last guys has updated the own X 200 with a LG blueray and it worked

• Can satellite A100-999 - I recover the HDD password?

  Hi all

  I had a virus, so I formatted my computer, a Satellite A100-999. After I did, I was going to install Windows Vista, but I never could, because they ask my HDD password and I don't know what password it is that, I don't see it anywhere. My computer has been installed in the store, I only have a bootable disc, they gave me.

  My question is: How can I recover my HDD password? Is it possible? I can boot the system in any other way?

  Thank you!

  Sara

  It of not possible recovery or removes the HARD drive password. An ASP peut t for this too.

  Sorry, but in this case, you need a new HARD drive. There's no other way.

• Satellite A100-411: one or the other DVDs cannot be recognized

  Hello

  I work with my new Toshiba a100 411 since the end of February here at I m happy w / my choice.
  The only point is that I found that one or the other DVD cannot be recognized by the Pioneer K17A.
  Need me possibly new drivers?
  Thks in advance for yr help.
  Jürgen

  Hello

  Hmm I n t think so.
  As far as I know that these drives support not all CD or DVD and it s nothing unusual that one or the other DVD may not be recognized correctly.

  Sometimes a firmware update could allow the reader to recognize more kind of CD and DVD, but on the other hand, no one can say that this update might help.

  Hi Rob

  It is quite complicated to explain how to remove the optical disk drive. Before you do this, you must remove the top cover. The optical disk drive is fixed with two screws. When you remove the two of them, you can get out the ODD of its Bay.

  Sorry, but without exact maintenance manuals is not easy to explain this. It is quite complicated to disassemble the procedure for this model of laptop. Do you have already removed your Satellite Pro?

• How to format Satellite A60 302 without using the CD/DVD drive

  Hello

  I have a laptop SATELLITE A60-302, and I had a problem with cd player. I want to format the computer (WIN XP) and I wanned to ask if I can format the computer not by the cd player but another way as disk on key or something...

  Thanks :)

  Hello
  Your best bet might be trying to use an external CD/DVD drive to install Windows XP (must confirm that your laptop can boot from USB CD/DVD). I would not recommend it otherwise because they are pretty complicated and you will encounter other issues.

• Satellite A300 - is not eject the CD/DVD drive

  I have exactly the same problem with my 4 month Satellite A300. Every now and then and apparently without cause, the CD-ROM drive (Mat * a DVD - RAM) refuses to open. The little light near the eject button flickers when the button is pressed, but nothing. It will do if the drive is empty or not. Device Manager can see the disk and claims that it works correctly and that the driver is up-to-date. But if, for example, I display open with a trombone player and load a DVD, ImageBurn (which could also see the drive) calls for a communication error (e/s).

  Nothing seems to make the drive to work once he got into this State with the exception of a reboot, and even in this case we know remain 'dead' until a second reboot.

  I followed the instructions on [this site | http://www.randomfix.com/2007/04/12/windows-vista-%E2%80%93-missing-cddvd-rom-drive/] and the disc looked good for three days, then made his old trick. I checked the registry and the filters that I removed is still deleted. I uninstalled the drive via the Device Manager and let Vista find again to restart. Everything worked fine for 24 hours then the problem comes back.

  When the drive opens the button it works perfectly in all ways music - reading, writing, start, DVD...

  Very frustrating.

  The above post was originally a response on an existing thread, so I don't know where the rest disappeared. And I can't change it. This forum works as well as laptops.

• Can satellite L300-11 - I replace the CPU for the Core 2 Duo T7100?

  I have laptop Toshiba L300-11F. It integrates CPU INTEL CELERON CPU 550 @ 2 GHz, socket 479P. Can I replace this processor on the socketP478 of core2duo T7100 and know if it will work on 800 MGz?

  Hello

  I doubt that you could use this new processor.
  One main thing is important; the chipset of the motherboard must support the new processor. If the chipset will not support the new processor then you can not use it.
  In addition, you can use a CPU with a different outlet

  As indicated in your ad, the new processor supports different socket and therefore it will not match with the motherboard.

• Re: Can Satellite A100-172 - I put the HARD drive?

  Im just wondering what what can I put the HDD for my A100? The hard drive now is a 120 GB and its useless at this point due to a problem I had with it.
  I thought I'd go with this one, but I don't know about policy of hardware upgrades from Toshiba.

  Hello

  I agree with Akuma. You must take the HARD disk at 5400 RPM. It should be pretty fast and produces less heat. It is good for office and multimedia applications.

  I hope you enjoy with your new HARD drive. ;)

• Satellite L30-134 - replacing the CD/DVD drive

  Hi all

  I hope I can get some help here.

  Recently, I lost my CD drive on my L30 and want to replace it. I could do with is a view for the bit of nuts and bolts exploded and the model number of the drive of CD-ROM or a replacement compatible if anyone know of one?

  I carefully removed the screw of the record but seem to have some sort of fixation in the center that I can't understand, no screws showing, but he seems firmly attached.

  Thanks for the tips
  John

  > Yes, I suppose a user manual would list the compatible replacements, but unfortunately, I n t I a.
  LOL, you can download it from the page of European support from Toshiba!
  Check it out here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/-> support & download

  The STRANGE can be removed very easily. You must remove the screw just one ONLY which is placed at the bottom of the unit, near the memory slot cover!
  Then, it should be possible to get out the reader of CD/DVD of the Bay.

  See you soon

• Satellite Pro A120 - how to replace the CD/DVD drive?

  Hello

  My DVD/CD drive does not work much more and I want to replace it, but cannot find a way how to remove it from the drive. Anyone able to help me with that? Which screws I need to remove and where? Thank you!

  Hi caribman,

  As much as I know the ODD of replacement is not so easy. The drive is secured by a screw and to remove this screw, you need to remove the keyboard and the other parties as well.

  In my opinion, this should be done by a technician of laptop because it s a delicate procedure. It is not as easy as on the desktop, so I would contact a professional help
