How do clone you a hard drive on a P6770T
Background: I have a P6770T Office, number of product XX204AV #ABA, OS: Windows 7 Home 64 bit service pack 1.
Partitions: C: 685 GB D: 12.7 GB (recovery), Q: 0GO (MS Office 2010 protected).
Question: I would like to add a second hard drive to the PC as a clone. First of all, a second internal hard drive can be added (is there a location for the drive and a SATA cable port)? Second, how do clone you a hard drive with the three partitions, as described above? I need instructions for cooking book style because I'm a newbee. Thank you.
It is usually best to make a clone with an external drive. It makes no sense given the power (spinning). Seagate and WD offer similar programs, called 'DiskWizard '.
What you'll need:
(1) software cloning (I'll link Seagate) download the utility and download from this page user's Guide.
(2) buy a 1 t Seagate drive (like your hard drive is a nominal 750Go).
more than you will need:
(3) Sata Drive enclosure includes ESata rail.

Hi, I am a newbie in all of this. I would use the 2nd internal hard drive of our mac mini server (end 2012) for storage (in fact, I'll things rsync from a remote server to here. but this is not the point here.). The thing is, I don't know how to access the 2nd internal hard drive and where to start. I did all of the following commands in the Terminal, but I don't really know what they mean, and what can I do with this information. I've been Googling but most are guides on how to install a 2nd hard drive etc. I hope that the information below is enough for someone to give me advice please?

Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery
I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro
The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).
http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=IG0lW7t92bI
BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?
WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!
Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.
+ The message was edited: link has been removed ad channel may not +.
Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
Be careful about this. -

How to get a manufactured HARD drive date?
How to decode a serial number of the HARD drive to get the correct manufacturing date?
I found some information, see the attachment below, but the HARD drive in question is SATA and serial number decodes to Feb 1997 which may not be correct.
SN in question is 27MJFxxxx. Instructions below, 7 = 1997 - which would be 2007?Thanks for any help.

How to encode a Toshiba hard drive serial number?Toshiba serial number (S/N) includes the date of manufacture. The first digit of the serial number indicates the month of manufacture and the 2nd digit is the year.
Example:
M Y x x x x x x x
M = month
Y = yearData for the month goes from 1, for January, by 9 in September, then X, Y and Z, for October, November and December.
Examples:
2 8 1 7 0 0 0 1
2 = February
8 = 19983 0 5 4 4 3 0 6 T
3 = March
0 = 2000X 9 7 8 3 3 1 T
X = October
9 = 1999The remaining digits contain information about the plant and the production line, and some numbers are reserved for a continuously running serial number.
Hello
I googled a bit and there are a lot of people that suggests how to read a serial number, I have no idea if he of right, but for example if you have a serial number: X7TO234534, then the product data would be October 2007 (X 7)
X = 10 = October, Y = November, Z = Dec
The first number is the month and the second digit is one year.So in your case, the serial number 27MJFxxxx should mean Feb 2007
However, these are only some gossip on the internet and who knows if it of good or bad

I get a new hard Hard Drive (SSD). The new disc is the same size as my existing SATA drive. I can do either a new
the installation of Windows 7 or a clone old hard drive? I would prefer to clone the old hard drive and keep all my settings, etc. It's empirical data on the performance difference between a new installation of Windows 7 or to continue with the Windows 7 which was 3 or 4 years ago.
I know the conventional wisdom is that the new installation is faster, but, no matter who actually tested and compared the differences? I know I'll get better performance of the SSD the SATA drive, but I don't know if it's worth the hassle to do a fresh install and redo all my programs and settings.
Others that the performance of the SSD you should not see any differences. If you do, you can always do a clean installation later.
