Effect of RPM HDD on battery
Hi all
I replace the hard drive (death) in my HP Mini 110 3100 CA netbook. I was wondering if someone could give me some adivce I should go to a 7200 rpm or stay with a hard drive 5400 RPM? I have a battery 3 cells and became a decent amount of time between charges. From what I see, the price difference between 5400 and 7200 is not that much. I guess I'm just curious to know if there is usually a noticeable on the batteery draining when you use a 7200 RPM? If it helps, my use is very light: e-mail, web, documents, and spreadsheets.
Opinion/advice would be greatly appreciated!
See you soon,.

Hi, anvil:
A hard drive 7 200 RPM will give you better performance due to a more quick search time a disk of 5 400 rpm.
And you're right, the performance will come at some expense of battery life between charges.
Google and you can find many discussions like this one, on the subject.

I would not hesitate to buy a drive of 7 200 RPM. I have one in my HP Elitebook 6930p, and I'm very happy with it.

(2) can I install 8 GB of RAM?
(3) by chance, can I change my processor and install a higher GHz core 2 duo or core i3 processor? ***

That I can't say for sure.
I installed several HARD drives that are greater than what the manuals say.
But I did not on this model.
If you have some time I would like to have the warehouse guys see if they can find an and I can test it.

Hello. First of all, I didn't know where to post this, so I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place. Recently, the hard drive on my Toshiba Satellite is dead and I'm new. I wonder if it is safe replace the dead 5400 RPM hard disk provided with the machine with a new hard drive 7200 RPM. A few friends told me that it is perfectly safe, while others told me they burn out and possibly damage to my laptop. What think you of all? Thanks in advance to anyone who responds!

It is perfectly safe and preferable. If you are going to spend more than $100 you can think of a SSD drive, if your computer is new enough (not XP or vista era) to benefit from.

What is the difference between a hard disk 7200 RPM and a 5900 RPM HDD?
I guess, but doesn't this average 7200 tours / minute. A 5900 would be difference of 1300 towers.

Faster a car runs faster, it can access the files. Of course, there may be other differences
that affect speed such as the cache size, number or heads and others.Check the transfer rate DTR (Data) - slower disks are usually cheaper.

Hi people I need help if you can help.
I have an Equium A60 laptop and when I press the button when the laptop is running out of its battery, it does not start, but when I plug in the charger and press it starts very well.
Thought the battery was dead, but when he starts it says the battery is fully charged and it works fine without the charger plugged in for the duration, what it says on the battery monitoring software.
basically the on off button works fine when the charger is plugged in but has no effect when running off the battery voltage.Would really appreciate some help on this one, if you can imagine all the solutions
Thank you
Hello
In my opinion there is no one-size-fits-all solution for such problems. You can try to remove the battery to put a little time inside and test again.

Is it possible to upgrade the Satellite A100-906 with 160 GB 7200 RPM HARD drive
Hello guys,.
First of all, I would like to congratulate all the people here for their good advice.
As for my question, I want to upgrade my HARD drive. I have the laptop A100-906, which has a drive HARD 100 GB 5400 RPM Hitachi.The hard drive, I would like to buy, is also Hitachi but with the highest capacity (160 GB) and RPM faster (7200 against 5400).
I wonder, if my laptop supports this drive and if I have problems with temperature and noise, because the HARD drive runs at 7200 RPM.To summarize the above, is it really useful to replace my old 5400 RPM HARD drive to a new 7200 RPM?
Should I buy a new one with 5400 RPM to avoid having problems of temperature and noise?Please let me know your opinion and thank you in advance.
STLHello
As you already know we can only speculate on the size of the HARD disk
In my opinion the 160 GB would be possible. But it s just my personal opinion.In any case, the higher speed (7200 RPM) HARD drive should be a problem. I noticed that many laptops use 7200 RPM HDDs and 5200 RPM. So I imagine that the heat produced by the HARD drive shouldn't t increase the level of temperature at a critical level.

Satellite M105-SP381: short battery life - 01:50 mins
Hi guys,.
I have a Satellite M105 and I think that Im not getting good battery life out of it. I have had the machine for 1 month and I can barely 01:50 mins on drums, with a minimum brightness and wifi, just surf the web and listen to mp3s. What is the performance expected for this type of machine?
It has a 1.8 Core Duo, 1 GB RAM, 80 gb HD, ATI x 1300 14 "of clues? I use the watch system to "long term" Toshiba application. My battery was unaffected by the action of voluntary exchange of Toshiba.
Thank you
HI Juan,
Different parts of the book will use you the power at higher or lower rates. Any component with a mechanical action (your hard drive, optical drive, floppy drive, etc.) use generally a little more power than the CPU, RAM etc.
The effect is to drain the battery faster if the hard drive or optical drive is used. So, generally, is expected to get more autonomy if you use an application such as Word or Excel where there is minimum hard disk activity unless you're constantly saving or loading documents.
In your case, playback of MP3 files will constantly have to load data from the drive hard (although cached to reduce the number of access) while you browsing the internet is constantly written pages in your Temporary Internet folder (as well as access to your anti-virus database). All this activity hard drive means that the hard drive is never allowed to turn down and therefore do not have to use the power of the battery.
As long as you follow the usual recommendations to optimize your battery (let it fully discharge from time to time) I think that the time you get really is reasonable for the type of activity that you do.
Kind regards

batteria mantenimento Consigli
Salvo, I like to know (da una cast ufficiale, is possible) is e più corretto, by a mantenimento della salute della batteria di buon a device, lasciarlo download ogni volta full the batteria (o comunque arrrivare a low percentuali di carica was), oppure cercare di carica sempre al 40-80 at least keep %, attaccando he device alla presa della corrente ogni qualvolta don't sia disponibile una.
Because the battery is a Lithium-ion battery, you can load whenever you want, there is no memory effect that could reduce the battery capacity.

HP 4540 s Win7 Pro 64 - bit daily CHKDSK errors - multiple verified as good HDD/SSD tested
I bought this HP4540s in nine late 2013 and out of the box I started noticing errors CHKDSK. Never, has crashed or hung from a few mistakes that were always repairable, system went very well, no problems of speed, etc.. Scans of the complete area of the donnГ (Hitichi 750gig, 7200 RPM) HDD, zero Issus with the reader. A few months later, I removed a SSD of Sandisk Pro 256gig older DV6000 laptop which has worked perfectly and cloned the installation disc in the 4540 s. After installation, the same thing began to happen, except worse. About once a day, 12-16 h continuous operation the system will become insensitive, SSD/HDD light lights up at 100% for about a minute and then turns off. A minute or so later, I either get a BSOD or re-boot system itself and then try to connect to a DHCP source, most likely because the BIOS can't see the SSD. A second power button (4) it turns off then turn it back on I get the windows was closing incorrctly screen and I just choose Start Windows normally and everything is OK, but usually, but not always I still errors CHKDSK and sometimes damaged, files until I had to reinstall the applications. The HDD and SSD run perfectly on other computers. I'm starting to wonder if I have a problem with the main channel of SATA or a chipset problem I want to solve this problem before the warranty expires and it turns out that I need a motherboard replaced. Someone at - it advice/tests I can try on this thing for this track. It is slowly eating my files away next day (yes I have 6 months, image files on the disc recorded in the case where and create new ones often but probably backup of files damaged at this point - has found an old pdf file yesterday, which has been altered - thank God for image files). I have not tried a 3rd disc because I do not see since the (2) I work with work very well in other machines and test perfectly wise sector. The problem gets worse as you push harder data on primary SDD/HDD. Some mornings, I'll get put into hibernation and it will crash in minutes (not associated with heat it), restart it and its OK for the day, maybe later down in the evening but usually once a day, very intermittent but always reproducible. No excessive processor, in fact zero not problems with the thing when its work; system is lightening fast with the SSD, but mistakes happen more often then with a tray more that points me again to a chipset or problem Channel SATA SSD can load the SATA channel so much harder than the flat disc never could. Also, just an observation, the question seems more prevelent in operations that remove a large number of files such that empty the collector recycled with a couple of hundreds of files in the trash. I have 2 of these laptops 4540 s, the other is my wife and it is basically the same cycle. I saw not a single error CHKDSK on this laptop so far. The only difference in the machines is it has a 750gig 7200 RPM WD Black HDD. Also, I have an external drive 1 terabyte 7200rmp on one of the 24/7 port USB3 who reads/writes concerts and gigs of data per day (media center activity - recording DVR units) and there has NEVER been a CHKDSK error or however it's storage only, no OS. There is no heat problem at all. The CPU even with Media Center HD recording is less than 10% with CPU @ 1.2gig clock, in other words, a fast idle. The system also works in office extended with a second large LCD.
Thanks in advance
Hello Off_Grid

BlackBerry BB Q10 Q10 - difference between Power OFF and "battery pull out?"
Hello
Anyone has any info on what difference the phone sees between a switching OFF power and make a battery out?
Apparently, some of the guys to BlackBerry customer service advise you to do a battery pull off when the phone is in MODE.
Just curious to know what is the reason behind it.
When you turn off your phone, keep everything intact until you turn on again. When you do a battery pull, he interrupts the operation of the phone and many temporary files, not necessary for the proper functioning of the phone, are deleted. In many cases, when there is something playing havoc on your phone it is found within these temporary files.
Another method to do a battery pull should press and hold the power button until the BlackBerry is displayed on the screen. Other things will appear before that but if you continue to hold until it shows, the effect is similar to a battery with the phone powered pull. Note that pressing the power button to turn off the phone does not erase these temporary files unless you press and hold until the BlackBerry presents, usually about 15 seconds.
I hope that helps you.
