Equium A110-233: upgrade HDD - can I use 250 GB HARD drive?

Hi all

I would like to upgrade my hard drive (40 GB now). What is the maximum capacity of HD, that supports my Toshiba? Can I put still 250GB?

Another question is, can I buy for example external USB 2.5 "hard drive and swap the drive of my laptop with it, I mean put one of the USB box inside my Toshiba and Toshiba original to USB enclosure?

If it works?

Hello

Unfortunately, there is no public document on upgrading the HARD disk and you will be very happy if someone can give you good info. I must say that I agree with GhostUK and I think that 120 GB should be enough and this HARD drive will be recognized correctly.

In the end, do not you extreme upgrade. ;)

Of course you can do it.

  • can I use an external hard drive to increase the disk space and memory on xp?

    I am considering an external hard drive of 1 TB to trasmet all files on the computer. There is little hard drive space and memory left. Can I use the external hard drive free space and can it will be installed via USB and use my operating system?

    You can use the external hard drive to transfer your data from your internal hard drive.  Cannot move system files (such as Program Files, Windows and swap files) well.  Looks like your use of the word 'memory' made reference to disk space - it normally refers to which an external drive would not affect RAM.  If you mean disk space, however, you can certainly free SPAC drive this way.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.

    Hello! You need a new PC Yep!
    But there are other ways to do

    You can buy a SATA USB adapter that will allow you to plug in the HARD drive on another PC and the take-off data

    NOW YOU CAN ONLY SAVE DATA FROM THE DISK IF THE HARD DRIVE IS NOT DEAD

    Good luck!

  • Satellite P200-13Z - upgrade the hard drive - can I use SATA II hard drives?

    I have a Satellite P200-13Z with simple standard Fujitsu 120 GB SATA hard drive. I want to change this to a RPM SATA II 250 GB Western Digital 7200 RPM drive. This interface SATA laptop does support SATA II? Thank you very much!

    Not your portable computer does not support SATA II.

    However, you can buy the SATA II hard drive and put it in your laptop. Only way to get it going is to restrict the new speed of SATA HDD, I accelerate. To do this is to introduce a jumper on the drive to restrict it to SATA I speeds up. Once it's done put in your laptop and viola, it works.

    Good luck, but I would like to get a toshiba technician to install it if its under warranty. It's for your own good, so you don't turn your laptop into a boat anchor.

  • Pavilion a6500f: can I use my old hard drive as a second drive to the new I install.

    I have a Pavilion a6500f I can access is no longer as he continues to tell me there are registry errors.  My recovery disk (I got a) or do a hard reset or else he will start.  It came with a window that says recovery system or start Windows normally.  I get a new hard drive to it and have a whole new Windows 7 installed.  The thing is that I don't want to lose all my stuff on the old hard drive.  So my question is can I install the OLD hard drive as a second drive to the new?  If I can then I can just copy all the files from the old drive to the new and use the old as a memory drive.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    The simple answer is Yes.

    (1) I would like to replace the hard drive with the same drive size or larger. But does not exceed 2 T.

    (2) I hope you made the original recovery DVD set the original recovery firstly, DVD media DVD + R try as these will save you having to create a driver disk.  If you really have to buy a complete set of recovery, get it here. It will have all the necessary drivers.  Only $27.00

    (3) I copy the files and destroy the old disk. Its usefulness is damaged since 2008.

  • Equium P200-1ED: is it possible to use 3 Gbps HARD drive?

    Hi all

    I have a laptop Toshiba Equium P200-1ED and quickly fill capacity on the hard drive. I'm looking to upgrade to something like a 500-700 GB HARD drive.

    However, when I look around for 1.5 gb/s options I am limited to 160 GB maximum.

    Even if the current HARD disk interface is 1.5 gb/s (currently using Hitachi HTS542512K95A00) is possible to use a HARD 3 gb/s drive and P200-1ED will support it?

    I am not so embarrassed on the speed of performance, more the need for a larger storage capacity without having to get an external drive.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Announcement

    Hello

    Equium P200 supports the controller SATA HDD and SATA I and SATA II HDD are compatible and would be supported by the BIOS.

    You can use a disk HARD SATA II (3 Gb/s).

    But perhaps only the 1.5BGb / s (SATA I performance) would be reached.

  • Satellite A200-1 s 5 - can I use a second HARD drive and RAID?

    Hi all

    Toshiba Satellite A200-1 s 5 is eligible to add a second hard drive? It has RAID controller as much I know - it might help?

    Thank you
    Denis

    If you have a SATA connector in the second HARD drive Bay, you can use a second HDD. Check it!
    Then you can buy each disc HARD what you want with SATA port.

    The Satellite A200 doesn't have a RAID controller.

  • Can I use 1 TB hard drive on my Satellite L40?

    Hello!

    Is it possible to change my 120 GB drive hard wit 1 TB HITACHI SATA III hard drive on my Toshiba L40?
    I think my HDD is Sata II now and I'm not sure if is compatible with SATA III and the size 1 TB...

    Post edited by: Warren G

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to find the official statement from Toshiba on this subject but, well I know, you can use SATA III on this old machine.

    I put t know what is the reason to use this HARD drive. You cannot use your old laptop with normal HARD drive with, say s, 300 Go?

  • Can I use an external hard drive that is compatible to Windows on a Mac through reformatting?

    I bought a Seagate Expansion 4 TB USB 3.0 hard drive.

    F8 & PSC = 1 https://www.Amazon.com/GP/product/B017KE8OG0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?IE=UT

    But it is only compatible with Windows.

    Can I reformat the hard drive on my MacBook Pro - or it would even rise not?

    If so, what format to use? Mac OS extended (journaled)?

    Thank you!

    PS: I tried to put this in the Mac system software, but I could not find in 100 + element of submenu. I must say the redesign of the forum makes it much more difficult to use, and it is almost impossible to find positions in some themes that were available in the old form by a simple click on a symbol. It feels like Apple wanted to have as bad an organization like Google (endless sub-menus in otherwise good work pro apps e-mail) and be too cryptic in its structure than that of Windows. Apple, please go back to the simple user interfaces that can be understood by logic. Yes, I tried to put this comment in a comment forum, but I could not find.

    1. Yes, you can.

    2. Yes.

  • MY c DRIVE is nearly full. Can I use my external hard drive because it has a lot of space

    My ' it shows only 123 MB available disc. I have a 500 GB external hard drive, but am not sure how to use it to free up space on my drive "C".

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Roy Warner

    Hi Roy,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    The description of the problem you have provided, I understand that your C drive is full and trying to move some information on external hard drive.

    I will certainly help you in this matter.

    If you have data files in the C drive, you can go ahead and move them to the external hard drive. You will not be able to move the files to the program on the external hard drive.

    In order to get the free space in C drive, you can go ahead and uninstall the software bit that you use it often.

    See the link.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-Vista/uninstall-or-change-a-program

    You can also delete files using disk cleanup, which would reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space.

  • Can WRT1900ACS use an external hard drive with disks in RAID 0, 1, or JBOD?

    Hello

    Happy new year.

    Is an external drive with more disks RAID 0, 1; JBOD compatible with WRT1900ACS?

    I have this idea to tie a big (6-8 TB) external drive and use the DLNA feature as an alternative to a computer as NAS and DLNA server. The external drive could be four 2 TB Western Digital hard drives in RAID 0, 1; JBOD. The boxes can be:

    - Western Digital my book Duo.

    - IB-3640SU3 - external case of JBOD 4 x with eSATA and USB 3.0 for disks 3.5 "SATA hard.

    I hope someone can help clarify if I have misunderstood something.

    Concerning

    Jan Rouvi

    Hello. It is not recommended to use this type of enclosure with the WRT1900ACS, since most of this is managed by software that are installed on the computer. The software will not be able to detect hard drives, whether they are connected to the router and the router does not have this capability to configure drives in RAID 0, 1, or JBOD. The configuration of the router storage tool is just very basic. If you really need to configure RAID 0, 1, or JBOD in terms of network, you must obtain a SIN.

  • Can I use my old hard drive?

    I bought a new Dell Inspiron 530 last October. To cut a long story short Dell made a mistake with the order and just sent me a replacement system. I had to return the old, but let me keep the hard drive. If I buy an enclsoure I'll be able to use this hard drive on my new Inspiron 530. I use Vista Premium the new hard drive is 250 GB as opposed to the former, which is 180 GB, but the operating system is exactly the same.

    Thank you
