Disabled.what HARD Smart capacity is disc

At the beginning I see note saying HDD Smart capability disabled. What what to do.

Hello

It is an automatic method to check the hard drive.

It can be activated in the BIOS (Setup/settings as you start so watch the display for)
the keys).

Check with support from the manufacturer of your system (manufacturer of motherboard for customized systems),
their documentation online and drivers and ask in their forums (if any).

I hope this helps.

  • Satellite M70 - 394 - what HARD drive I can install?

    I have a Satellite M70-394 (PSM70E) that I would like to upgrade the hard drive.

    Can you tell me what hard drive I'm able to install, such as what type of interface?
    Do you also know if I can run windows 7?
    and can you tell me if I installed a larger hard drive and a new operating system will be my original toshiba product recovery disk work.
    then where in my drive hard is my factory set windows xp so I can remove and install the new operating system

    Hello

    I m not a Satellite M70 owner but as far as I know this laptop comes with SATA drives. But you can check yourself if you remove the HARD drive and then you can see which interface it is.
    If you have a SATA interface, you can buy each HARD drive you want. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.

    Normally you can install Windows 7 but it s not released yet. Theoretically, it should work but I'll wait until it's official market.

    With a new HARD disk, you use the Toshiba recovery disc too. Why not? It s not dependent on the HARD drive you have so just boot make up and follow the instructions on the screen.

    If you have any other questions, please let us know. :)

  • Toshiba HDD & dvd/VCR recorders record in what format to DVD-R discs?

    In 2008, I paid £190 on Amazon for a HARD & DVD/VCR player disc with free view, model rd-xv48dtkb.
    I've done many DVD-R disc full of TV shows I record with her, but when I take them to friends they don t game!

    What is the format makes this machine to record videos in mpeg4 or divx for example?

    He seems to play avi, divx files ok but what other formats read it? for example, mpeg4, mpeg2 etc...
    Can Toshiba or anyone who knows tell me as soon as possible, which is the biggest flaw I've found with the machine.
    Also, if I put a DVD in my pc detected disks even not! Serious flaw.

    What software should I in a pc to detect the Toshiba has decided to use the file format?

    Hello

    Above all that it is a forum for computer/laptop Toshiba that I doubt there are many people who have experience with your standalone DVD recorder.

    But I have some advice for you;
    Check the configuration settings. There should be something about the format that is supported.
    Check if the HARD drive (where the films are stored) has been chosen correctly.

    Maybe the videos are saved to the. Standard VOB my writer did.

  • What HARD drive I can use in Satellite U300 (issue of SATA)

    I have 4 years Toshiba U300. Recently, the hard drive (200 GB 5400 RPM) broked down.
    I want to replace but I don't know that can use any SATA II HARD drive, or I have to use the HDD with SATA I?
    On some forums, I found two users that puted new HARD drive in the old laptop and they complained that the speed of OS boot was hopeless.

    So the question is what HARD drive should I buy for this laptop?
    (I prefer capacity 320 or 500 GB)

    Hello

    SATA controller is downward compatible, you can use SATA I or SATA II HDD.
    It is important that you would use SATA 2.5 HDD. The size is not very important for 500 GB configuration issues should be ok too.

  • 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.

  • What hard drives are compatible for a Satellite L300-1AP?

    My HARD drive is somehow broken :( What hard drives are compatible for a Satellite L300-1AP so that I can something eBay?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Satellite L300 supports SATA HDD!
    SATA controller having no physical limit, you should be able to use any HARD drive 2.5 SATA. So, for example, a 500 GB 2.5 SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive should be compatible.

    Thank you for your help.

    Best regards

    Yes, absolutely. Stick with 2.5 inches wide, 9.5 or 7 mm thickness SATA hdd or SSD. 7 mms are leaner, but the mounting holes are in the same place and the SATA data connector and the power supply is in the same place. You cannot use a 9.5 where only a 7mm is used as on Ultrabooks ultraslim, but a 7mm will replace a 9.5 mm. 7mm fits into the caddy and connectors will still work the drive but does not fill the carriage upwards. Yours is a chunky fellow that originally had a 9.5 mm drive. Sometimes you see disks of 2.5 inches wide from 12mm for blades and those who are not fit.

    If it's in the budget, get an SSD. I'm kinda an envangelist SSD, but you will be too once you have used a.

  • How to remove an incompatiable extension from your computer that has been disabled by Firefox (Smart Printing button 1.0), but don't find it on the hard drive?

    I was cleaning my Add-ons, etc and noticed that extension, Smart Printing button 1.0 is disabled b/c, it is not compatible with my current version of FF 18.0.1, why not uninstall and go? I looked for answers on how to do it, but come up empty. I searched my C drive for the HP, print Web program (such as suggested by the forums HP) and found nada, I think I might have deleted (not uninstalled correctly) as I felt as I didn't need and now the extension. How can I remove the extension of Smart Printing button 1.0 on the list of Firefox extensions in the current situation?

    This extension is likely to have been installed in the world and is located on via an analysis of the registry.

  • What HARD drive I can use on my Satellite A660-13D?

    Hello

    I'm looking for any compatible for a Toshiba SATELLITE A660-13D hard disk drive as the one inside is dead now.

    This model comes with the laptop is a TOSHIBA MK6465GSX 640 GB, SATA 3 Gb/second 5400 RPM 2.6 revision

    Official suppliers of Toshiba quoted me 130 euros por the same model.

    I can't have such model through any other store or the internet.

    There are a lot of different new TOSHIBA HDD in the market with the largest capacity and much less expensive than the MK6465GSK.

    Can I install any new toshiba HDD on my SATELLITE A660-13D?

    Is there any toshiba page where I can find out what toshiba HARD drive are compatible with my SATELLITE?

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Fernando

    What you need is 2.5 SATA HDD and it may be Toshiba but it may also be of some other manufacturers. You don't need anything special. If possible consult your dealer and they can help you choose one that suits.

    Now, when you need a new HARD drive maybe you should think about upgrading with SSD. Disc SSD is much faster and use of SSD with your laptop will rapidly increase the performance of s for laptop.

    More info on SSD, you can read on http://storage.toshiba.eu/cms/en/index.html

  • What HARD drive is the right one for Qosmio G30

    Hello world

    I have a Qosmio G30-161. The recovery discs are interrupted by a blue screen and windows cannot be installed!
    I tried to install a retail windows xp but does not recognize the hard drive!

    I'm almost convinced that the problem in the hard drive - computer laptop has2 - 60G each!

    The question is: what is the good hard drive that will fit in the laptop!

    In the specifications, S.M.A.R.T have been written!

    What does this mean?

    Hello

    You can remove hard disks and order the same. On the HARD drive you can find the purchase order number.
    For example, it can be Toshiba HDD2D33BZK01.

    Of course, you can also use with a higher capacity HARD drive.
    The question is: what you want to do exactly?

  • What is the capacity MAX HDD for Satellite A210 - 11 c?

    My laptop contains smart 5400 RPM and 160 GB. I think I have a mechanical problem with HARD drive because of the annoying voice.
    That is why I want to change it with a new one, but I don't know what will be the largest capacity of the new?

    It must be with a higher capacity HARD drive?
    Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't offer this info but I think that you shouldn't have any problems with 300 GB or even 400 GB hard drives.

  • What HARD drive max can I use for Satellite 2410-504

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba 2410-504 P241E the 20 GB drive HARD is almost full, and I would like to buy another larger capacity disc to replace.
    My question is what is the maximum capacity disc and what type of drive this machine will support?

    Note: I have the latest version of the bios installed and the machine is running Win XP pro.

    Concerning

    Bob

    Hello

    I think that the laptop supports an IDE HDD controller that supports only 28-bit LBA as suggested by resident. This means that the controller does support max 128 GB IDE hard drives.

    Since ATA - 6 (Ultra DMA mode 5 or Ultra-ATA100) the 48-bit LBA is supported but I n t think that Sam 2410-504 was equipped with the ATA-6 controller and therefore, it seems that 120 GB (128 GB HARD drive not available) disk HARD is the maximum that could be used.

  • Alert TEMPRO - 90% hard drive capacity

    I have a Satellite L350.

    I get a "Tempro alert" telling me I've exhausted more than 90% of the capacity of the hard disk.

    The only thing that I downloaded on the hard drive in the past months is a lot of music from an external hard drive. Once I had sorted the music (on the discs and the other PC), I deleted everything by putting it in the trash and eventually emptied.

    The PC was lent to me by a friend and that's why I do not download anything on the hard drive. Other than the use of internet for my business almost all day, five days a week I do not understand why the hard drive must be full.

    Clues?

    Hey Buddy,

    The exact partition sizes are not known to me and I also don t know what kind of software you have installed but if 90% of the capacity of the HARD disk is already in use, you must remove some items or move it to the second partition.

    For example all the stuff of music, video, photo, and documents, you can save on the second partition.
    I only use the first partition to install programs, all the other stuff is stored on the second partition.
