Can what larger HARD drive I use on Portege 7200ct?

Ive got a toshiba portege 7200ct, what is the largest hard drive recognizable by the laptop?
That I get an insert system disk in drive when I put in a 40 GB drive

Thank you

Hello

The Portege 7200ct seems to be an older unit.
I googled around and found some info on the delivered HARD drive.
It seems that the laptop came with a 12 GB of HARD drive.

ARIN, I think 20 GB HARD drive would work and in my opinion the BIOS does not recognize the larger hard drives.
But "suck it and see '.
You know it; You can visit a computer store and test drives. Maybe you are a lucky man and run a larger HARD drive (but I don't)

  • Out of the blow of sleep when the HARD drive password used on Portege R700

    Hello
    I just got a DLI R700 with Win 7 Pro 64-bit
    I have a very annoying problem because it must be plus 1 minute to accept the password after the resumption of the mode standby. It would be faster out of the hibernation!
    So he wakes up from his sleep in a second, then you can enter the password without any problem but you just can't click on the arrow or press on enter up to what more than one minute. Similarly, it will accept even fingerprints directly at the exit (you get the green check mark) after wake but then expects just over one minute to move in the opening session on the desktop screen.

    Through a process of account, I worked on what was going on...
    Only, it crashes when you have the password on resume from sleep. CV password sleep turn out and he throws back in Office windows in seconds of wake
    This does not happen to resume from hibernation or reboot - scan of fingerprints or password is entered, then goes right into the office in a few seconds
    I started uninstalling software fingerpint, vap, power, toshiba - nothing always security management the same. Then I realized the password HARD drive - which was defined using the security of Toshiba and deleted using the same, has been still enabled in the bios. I have this off and everything works fine. I reinstalled the vap, power management and fingerprint software and everything is always very well, so it was defnitely the HARD drive password.
    Now it's really fake I want to have a RESUME from sleep password and HDD password protection - I have to choose between one or the other, unless I want to wait more than a minute each time he wakes from sleep which is a real pain! So it's clearly a bug in HARD drive password settings, probably in the bios? I have the latest BIOS installed.
    Any ideas on how to get this sort?

    Does anyone else have this problem with be either 32-bit or 64-bit. Or everyone doesn't have this problem, that is to say that they hear HARD drive password AND he wakes with password ok in a few seconds?
    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    It's really hard to say something about what I can only say that I can t noticed this problem on my Windows installation.

    By the way: you are using the version Windows from Toshiba or your own installation of Windows?

    Theoretically, it could be a problem to install Windows or disc itself are you able to test another installation of HARD drive or windows that you can make sure it is not a software problem?

    Like... What size HARD drive can take my computer?
    I check it for example Western Digital Scorpio Black WD3200BEKT 16 MB 7200 RPM S - ATA 320GB 2.5tum

    My computer is Equium M50-236.

    Help, please
    Dennis Norlin

    Hello

    As I m wrong not the laptop does support IDE and NOT SATA controller.
    If you want to upgrade the HARD drive, then you need to use an IDE HDD!

    I recommend to use max 120 GB HDD, because it might be possible that larger size of HARD drive will not be recognized by the BIOS.

  • Can satellite A30 - I install a larger HARD drive?

    I thought I had taken care with boards and pieces of kit. but after the reconstruction of my A30 (having the replaced DC Jack), he comes up with the following messages:

    * SMART failure provided on hard disk 0: TOSHIBA MK4018GAS (PM) *.
    * WARNING: Immediately back up your data and replace your hard drive. A failure may be imminent.*
    * Press F1 to continue. *

    I tried winding connector to HARD drive decision-making, which seems OK.

    So start thinking I killed this disk somehow. If Yes, can I install a larger drive, say 80 or even 160 GB and should I look for a magic word MK4018GAS, or is it SATA or IDE, I'm looking.

    Thank you. Robin

    Hello!

    If you delete the old HDD, you can see if an IDE or SATA HDD but the Satellite A30 is equipped with an IDE HDD.

    You can use a larger HARD drive. This should not be a problem, but as far as I know this laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that the disc size limit is 128GB and so you can use a 120 GB HARD drive.
    If you want to learn more about this read the article on Wikipedia or here: http://www.48bitlba.com

    So, you can buy a 120 GB HARD drive or an 80 GB HARD drive as you suggest. I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

    In any case, I think that it s a good idea to exchange the HARD drive. SMART error message appears as if there is something wrong with the HARD drive to back up your data as quickly as possible. ;)

    Good bye

  • What HARD drive I use for Satellite L305D-s5868?

    What is the form factor for a replacement disk?

    Can a * SATA II drive * be used?

    I agree with Akuma. You need a HARD drive 2.5 SATA.
    The SATA controller is compatible downwards, which means you can use a HARD SATA II in SATA drive I have controller.

    No, you cannot, if you want Windows 7 on a new drive with your programs and settings, then it is better you create a system image and restore it on the new drive. See the following for instructions:

    my laptop is dying, I can move my hard drive to another computer and still use vista coa?

    Hello

    It depends on the type of license you have, as to whether you can transfer it or not.

    Pre-installed Licenses OEM (HP, Acer, etc.) and the Microsoft System Builder OEM licenses are tied to the first machine that they are installed on and channels of license when this machine dies.

    OEM licenses are not transferable.

    If you have purchased your own license for sale retail of Windows and installed yourself, yes you can transfer it to another computer.

    Retail licenses are transferable.

    Just be sure that you have only installed on one machine at a time.

    A single license means one Installation.

    And if it is retail and transfer you, in all likelihood will have to reinstall the operating system, as this disc hard the 'old' aura card mother drivers installed, which will cause starting problems.

    See you soon.

  • Portege 7100 - what size HARD drive it does support?

    Hello

    my old man (I'm a student, so no money for a new) Portege 7100 (ct) has a small hard drive, so I want to shift to a bigger... but what size HARD drive supports the 7100ct? (and that's a 1.8 "or can I use drives 2.5"?)

    thx for any help...

    Hello

    As far as I know that your unit has standard 2.5 "hard drive. Unfortunately there is no public record of such information. Accurate information, you can get that from accredited service partner or even some HARD drive supplier.
    In my opinion, your device must be able to manage with maximum up to 8 or 10 GB HARD drive. For me, we know that some offering it can manipulate the BIOS with special tools and after that BIOS recognize a much larger capacity HARD drive.

    Try to pick up some information on the net service partner or call your country. I believe that consultation service is free.

  • What spare hard drive do I need? Thank you...

    Hello

    Thank you for viewing my post. I really appreciate any input.

    I have a laptop Compaq Presario C306US

    I need a new had drive and the recovery disc for this.

    I was wondering, what replacement hard drive would be a better solution for it? Also, where can I get the recovery disc for the computer? I need them both.

    Thanks again for any help.

    Kind regards

    Stephen

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See page 5-7 for the removal and replacement of the drive hard. It uses the old IDE PATA aka to hard disks that are becoming hard to find. Unfortunately, they are also stupid expensive:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA0AJ17B5685

    The least expensive is located at 4200 RPM 40 gig for $100. Above is a 60 GB 5400 RPM for $120. Frankly the laptop isn't worth much. I doubt that HP still has the recovery disc for him, but we can find a download of a version of Windows XP OEM and you should have a key Code for XP on it.

    If HP is defined recovery you can get to it here:

  • How to switch my system on a larger hard drive without having to reinstall the OS and lose my data?

    replace the hard drive

    I'm looking to replace my hard drive but I need all the files it is about it, passing a small hard drive to a larger hard drive. My question is how can I save all the files on the disk and how can I get the operating system on the new hard drive without the original disk

    If your current system does not work, there is no need to bother with data backup, installation of applications and get a Windows XP installation CD (although regular backups are important to do as a general practice).

    Instead, clone your current hard drive to your new hard drive.  All you need is an external hard drive enclosure and disk cloning software.  In addition, once you have made sure that everything works correctly, put the old drive in the external box and use it for backups.

    Some of the cloning apps below are also disk 'images' (e.g. Acronis True Image).  A disk image can be compressed so that, for example 58 GB of data can produce a 40 GB image file.  Some of the apps, and of also can selectively backup specified files.

    The housings of external drives more to connect to a USB port.  Make sure just that buy you one with the good 'form factor' (portable = 2.5 inches, computer desktop/Tower = 3.5 inches) and internal drive connector.  Many but not all speakers can deal with SATA and PATA time.

    This example (for laptops) is not the less expensive external hard drive enclosure, but it's a decent case that can be used with either SATA or IDE (PATA) drives and comes with its own software package of cloning: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

    It is a very good buy for a drive IDE (PATA) Office size: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

    In general, Newegg is a good place for your search options by looking at the comments by users.

    If you have a Western Digital hard drive, you can get a version of Acronis True Image free of WD (http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119) or you can get the software of cloning separately (this is not an exhaustive list and in no particular order, some are free, some not):

    Acronis True Image Home
    EASEUS ToDo Backup
    Paragon Drive Copy or Partition Manager Personal
    Casper
    Norton Ghost

    Following a failure in a Qosmio G10-100 HARD drive, I replaced the HD 80 GB IDE current with a 160 GB IDE drive. After execution of the recovery of the DVD, new HARD drive has been formatted and installed the software (later proved by removing the drive and treat as an exterrnal disk on another PC).

    However, on booting, the machine has recognized that it was another hard drive and it wouldn't let me go beyond the screen that offers alternatives (Safe Mode, etc.), nor what would allow me access.

    Sorry mate but I put t understand what you did exactly
    You have installed the Windows operating system on the new HARD drive by using the recovery disk. Right?
    Well, the recovery procedure has completed correctly? The operating system has been successfully installed?

    Did repeat the installation of the OS?
    If this is not the case, repeat!
