Clasps to satellite L50-A-19N - hard drive

Hello

I own Satellite L50-A-19N, seen the question I sometimes hear a clap louder or the series of several shots of the laptop.

Probably, it comes out hard drive.
If I find SMART for internal HD() is no problematic interest, record Cdystaldiskinfo status is evaluated as being healthy.

However the occasional claps don't look too normal for me, never heard these and with such a volume of my previous computers.

Is this potential precursors disc collapse?
The laptop is not too old, about eight months only.

I guess that this noise is coming from the HARD drive.

I had a HARD drive (as far as I can remember it was at Hitachi) in the past who created similar clicking sound.
But the HARD drive worked properly.

However, I created a backup of my important files in case the HARD drive would be crashed.

  • Satellite L50-A-19N - HARD disk controller is not compatible SATA 3

    Hello.

    I have a model of L50-a-19n satellite.
    The hard drive it is HGST Travelstar 5 K 1000 750 GB, SATA 6 Gbps (HTS541075A9E680/0J22412).

    On Web site of the manufacturer and as Aida64 diagnostic software the hard drive is named SATA-III 600 MB/s.

    But when I run the Crystaldiskinfo software or simillar, it is said that the taken and current transfer mode supported SATA/300.
    Why is it like that?

    Is this some sort of software limmitation?
    In the Bios, I turned on the performance mode.

    HARD drive supports SATA 6 Gbit/s, but the portable controller is probably limited to SATA II (3 Gb/s)

    If the HARD disk controller does not support SATA III, HARD drive performance will be limited.

  • Satellite L50-A-19N: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (igdkmd64.sys)

    Greetings, on portable Satellite L50-A-19N (GT 740 M + i HD 4600), I get this BSOD more often than occasional crash (~ ~ once a day).
    Driver name, I guess it's GPU problem (or GPU driver software).

    After installing the latest graphics graphic drivers dedicated, and integrated Intel HD Graphics 15.36.21.64.4222, Geforce 353.06 WHQL, this problem persists for about a year, however in the last few weeks in high intensity.

    Mobile home is connected only to external LCD for output (via original HDMI 1. 4A, audio HDMI cable activated, resolution 2560x1440@60Hz). Also, using the official monitor of the manufacturer driver (it's just INF file).

    I don't know if it's a software driver or card/GPU mother/HW failure problem. Eventually can be caused by bad HDMI Cable or display panel (?).

    I have clues to find the source of the problem and take the next steps to remove the problem, thanks in advance for any relevant info.

    Hello, I think I have the same problem.
    In my case, the problem goes away when I run out of battery. Try also chain the parameter of dynamic frequency Cpu bios of low dynamic forever.

  • Satellite L50-A-19N - sound doesn't work sometimes

    Hello

    I am currently the owner of a Toshiba Satellite L50-A-19N and the sound does not work sometimes.

    When I play an audio file or a video or same file while playing a video from YouTube, works well for a while and then suddenly it stops.
    When that happens, his is always recognized the system because you can see in the volume control, but no sound from my speakers.
    The same thing also happens when I connect my external audio interface (M - Audio Fast Track USB).

    I use Windows 8.1
    Please help me, because I use my Toshiba mainly for music production and play.

    > When that happens, his is always recognized the system because you can see in the volume control, but no sound from my speakers.

    Have you tried to connect a headset while this problem occurs?
    Please check.

    In addition, you must uninstall the audio driver installed.
    Then you must reboot the laptop and after installing the audio driver (you can get it from the page of the Toshiba driver) once again.

    Finally and above all, you said that you are using an external audio interface.
    I m not quite sure all these software but it might be possible that these additional 3rd party software could affect the internal sound card / driver. This should be checked as well.

    If possible I recommend you test the laptop without these 3 tools/software audio

  • Satellite A210-ICO - what HARD drive I can use?

    I'm getting bad sectors on the hard drive of my laptop, so I guess I should pay for a new one – but who are able to A210-1CO?

    TA, M

    Hello

    Satellite A210 uses SATA hard drives and you need a new HARD drive with SATA interface. You can buy each HARD drive you want, for example 160 or 320 GB. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.

    In addition, most SATA HDDs have already SATA2 interface but its compatible downgrade to SATA1.
    I would have preferred a HARD disk at 5400 RPM. Of course, you can buy a HARD drive with 7200 RPM, but they produced more heat and noise. For most of the applications are pretty 5400 RPM.

    I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A60 - question of HARD drive replacement

    I have an old Toshiba Satellite A60. The HARD drive died recently and I'm looking to replace it. I want to know what disk drive specification, the Toshiba Satellite A60 can support. It originally had a MK3025GAS
    HDD2196B ZE01 S 30 GB 2.5 "drive.

    1. I would like to replace it with a larger capacity drive. What is the capacity (GB) and speed the A60 can bear?

    2. do I need to replace it with a toshiba drive or can I use any other 2.5 "drive (Seagate, Fujitsu, etc...)?

    Hello

    As far as I know the old Satellite A60 supports one IDE controller.
    This means that you must use a 2.5 IDE (ATA) HARD drive.
    As far as I know the older IDE controller are limited to 128 GB with 28-bit LBA (address logic bit).
    Then maybe you should start with a 120 GB HDD, which must be compatible, even if the controller would be limited to 128 GB.

    But standard ATA-6 (also called TONGA-100) does support 48 bit LBA in this case, it is not limited to 128 GB. You can check controller HARD drive using tools such as SANDRA or Everest Home Edition freeware soft for the information on the controller built in the A60.

    > 2. Do I need to replace it with a toshiba drive or can I use any other disk 2.5 "
    You can use any HARD drive that meets the requirements (IDE, 2.5)

  • Satellite A200 UH1 - 2nd hard drive Bay

    Hi all!

    Could someone explain me how to connect a second HDD in secondary housing of this laptop?

    I opened the cover, but there is no plug or the connector to install a.

    What I see, seems I have to buy a few extra parts, but I have no idea what.
    The manual is saying that he has this Bay (so it is usable as Toshiba worth to write his presence in the manual).

    Can someone help me?

    I really wish for reason practical for a keg external HDD will reduce the autonomy of the laptop when it is on battery.

    Thank you!!!

    If you want to connect a second disk of this machine slot that there must be a connector and if you don t have a t, you can put in a second HDD.
    Not every Satellite A200 has such connector.
    On the second HARD drive Bay, I founded the following information in the user manual:
    > HDD2: the availability of this functionality depends on the model you have purchased

    But you can use a second HDD in the slot of the CD/DVD drive. For this you can use a Bay for a second HDD.
    Ask an ASP for this part. They can order.

  • Satellite Pro M70 - what HARD drive can you recommend?

    I have Satellite Pro M70 and I have a 60GB HDD that I see what it s SATA 8 MB of buffer memory. The processor it s 1.73 GHz. I see that there is the Samsung typical 160 GB and the Western Digital Scorpio Blue 160 GB at the same price, which is better?

    And for only $ 11 more there's a Scorpio blue Western digital 320 with even 8 MB buffer than other 2. But I don t think so 320, that's a lot for Satellite Pro M70, and I have an external drive 2.5 "250 GB, data with this is not problem.

    What the best solution for this laptop? I don t want to burn now the phone LOL.

    Thank you

    Hello

    If your laptop is already equipped with SATA interface, you can use each HDD with SATA1 or SATA2 port on the new SATA interface there is no limit on the old standard IDE

    It s your choice what HARD drive you buy because I put t know your needs, but in my opinion it makes no difference which manufacturing you buy the HARD drive. All hard drives are similar and there is no significant difference (performance).
    I made good experiences with Western Digital and Hitachi hard drives.

    By the way: you can buy a HARD drive with 7200 rpm or 5400.rpm. Latter is faster but requires more power. In my opinion, this is useful if you often work with large files.

  • Satellite A60 - 102 - what HARD drive is possible

    What capacity of hard drive used in this laptop

    Hello

    Satellite A60 is a little older series and I think that the laptop supports the IDE HDD controller
    Perhaps the HARD disk controller support for only 28 bit LBA, which means that only 128 GB would be recognized by the BIOS.

    I think a 120 GB HDD should work but I'm not sure if the biggest hard drives would be supported due to mentioned m 28-bit LBA

  • Satellite A200 - question format HARD drive after replacing

    Hello

    I know this is probably a stupid question to ask as I am not that great with computers.
    I have problems with my hard drive from my Toshiba Satellite A200 laptop.

    Now, when I took it out it was a 120 GB so I bought another Seagate 320 GB hard drive to replace it.
    Now can I just put it back in or do I have to format the known brand hard drive.

    So if anyone can help it would be much appreciated

    Thank you

    Hello

    New HARD drive should be recognized by the laptop properly.
    If you purchased a HARD drive 2.5 SATA, so I put t see serious reasons why this HARD drive is not working.

    Once the HARD drive has been replaced, boot from the Toshiba Recovery disk and follow the instructions on the screen. The HARD drive must be formatted during the installation procedure
    That article should work

  • Re: Satellite C850 unbootable - broken HARD drive

    Hello people,

    I bought a * Toshiba Satellite C850 - 1F2 * with * + Windows 8 + *.
    After installation, the upgrade to * + Windows 8.1 + * and setting up everything, the whole machine worked well enough.

    BUT since yesterday, the laptop no longer starts!
    When I turn it on, the HARD drive is click and click and the system tries to boot from DVD, USB, HARD drive, IPv4, IPV6, and then he said, that there is no boot device.

    Unfortunately, I tried to do the + restore Windows 8 - backup - DVD + this weekend!
    Huh!

    Well, I have one more * + Windows-7-DVD original and license + *, which would be good as well (I used it in recent years).
    * YET *, I can't install * + Windows 7 + *.
    He says something like that, that this system is not available for Secure Boot +.

    I read about 'Secure Boot'.
    So I pressed F2, turned on the laptop and managed with this BIOS.
    It's a * + InsydeH20 Rev 3.7 + *.
    * BUT *, when I go to "Boot Mode" I don't see myself, this option is grayed out and I cannot change the UEFI Boot + to ++ CSM Boot +.

    Even changing the HARD drive made no difference.
    I put in my old HDD with Windows 7 installed (which works in the other laptop), but the system does not start, because it is + not suitable for Secure Boot +.

    * Then, of WHAT NOW? *
    I mean, we can't really politics of Toshiba, you need to take your laptop, if the HARD drive breaks, it can?
    Because I create the rescue-DVD, I just my DVD of Windows 7 and an another HARD drive and installed Windows 7.

    I have to buy another license of Windows 8 and an another disk to reinstall Windows 8 (suitable for Secure Boot)?
    Would it even work like that?
    Or is it possible to upgrade the BIOS for it, I can then change boot UEFI to CSM Boot?
    Or is there another chance, to use my other HDD with Windows 7, or at least a new HARD clean disk, on which I can then install my Windows 7 operating system?

    I hope someone can give me good advice, what to do now... without throwing the Toshiba laptop ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    > I hope that someone can give me good advice, what to do now... without throwing the Toshiba laptop
    Let's start with this sentence. You must not throw your laptop. There's always a last stage that can be done and in your case, you can contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
    This model of laptop is fairly new, so I can imagine that the warranty is still valid, so I think you should contact the service and ask if you can get a new HARD drive for free. I mean why not if the warranty is still valid.

  • Satellite P750 - 10 c: HARD drive slows down - Sandy Bridge Cougar problem?

    Hello

    I have problem with my notebook Satellite P750 - 10 c with S/N: 4B478828K.
    When I enabled AHCI in the BIOS, computer slows diametrically, day after day was worste and worste, so I tried to change from AHCI to IDE and it helped a little, but is still not good.

    I tried to restore my system, but it did not help.
    I read that Intel has released a version tapped for Sandy Bridge chipset, I have (HM65) SATA 3Gbs problem (I just checked in HD Tune and HARD drive is connected to the port of 3Gbs), so I think I got bugged version.

    My laptop is not guaranteed, but Intel said they changed valid version, so where do I return my phone to fix.

    Kind regards
    Tomek

    > I read that Intel launched buggy version of the chipset for Sandy Bridge.
    The problem was a Cougar Point of Sandy Bridge chipset and not the main processor Sandy Bridge.

    In addition Intel said that this issue affected only the SATA 2 to 5 and not ports 0 and 1.
    Most laptops use only two devices SATA (HDD/SSD and ODD) using the affected ports 0 and 1.
    That is why I think that your problem could be linked to the issue of Cougar Point the Sandy Bridge chipset.

    By the way: not all Intel Sandy Bridge chipsets have been affected.

    Regarding your question:
    Usually if AHCI is enabled, the HARD drive must use the performance of SATA. If compatibility mode, the HARD drive would go at the speed of the IDE.
    I think your problem is perhaps related to the problem drive HARD and not Intel problem.

Maybe you are looking for
