How to install WD Scorpio on T61p HDD SATA2?

I got a new WD blue 500 GB HDD (SATAII) scorpiio.

Does anyone know how he installed on T61p?

I've mirrored all with Acronis and but the computer does not start from him, when the old disk is replaced.

Is it a question of SATA1/SATA2? How can I change the HDD to SATA1? There seems not to be a rider switch (as in some Seagate disks). Is tehre otherwise?

Any help will be appreciated

Hi aabbar123,

I don't think it's a matter of SATA1/2. More likely, it's a problem of cloning. When cloning your old hard drive to new, install a new one in your ThinkPad and put the old man on the SATA-> USB adapter (or whatever it is you use to connect). Make sure to tell True Image to include the MBR/track 0 and install on a primary partition, active on your new drive.

What version of True Image do you use?

    You probably need a floppy with the SATA driver. Alternatively, you can go to the config/SATA BIOS and go to compatibility (AHCI)

  • How to install a second HDD in Stelllite P200D

    I want to install an SSD and move my HARD disk in the slot to the second HDD. I can't find any document how to install second HDD. Do I need special adapter or no matter what HW for this?
    best regards Frank

    Hello

    At the bottom of the unit, you will find two bays for HARD drives. Right?
    But a Bay does contain all the connectors? Right?

    At first glance, this might be a little strange, but the fact is that the different models of Satellite P200/P200D were available on the market with different motherboards.

    Some would argue a 2nd HARD drive but some don t units. But all models supports the same low coverage and some people think that a 2nd HARD drive would be possible, what's not.

  • How to install the new HDD on Satellite M70?

    Hi, I have a Satellite M70 PSM75E, I want to move a hard drive of 250 GB, can give me instructions how to install and what type of disk HARD inface do I go?
    Your help is appreciated

    Hello

    It is difficult to say if the 500 GB will work in this good old classic... I think that 250GB should be sufficient for all applications you want to install.

    However, you could try the 500 GB. If it doesn t work you can bring back to your computer store or you can test it directly in the shop. Then you'll know if it of an option for you or not. Be creative! ;)

  • Re: How to install HDD on Satellite L300-19Y?

    Hi guys

    I'm not too good with computers but have bought a new HARD drive for my L-series I've been informed that my HARD drive is maybe broken due to errors when I perform chkdsk checks and the fact that it freezes and crashes randomly.

    In any case, could someone tell me how to install the HARD drive? I bought an another similar to the original hitachi in the laptop, that is to say sata, 2.5 ", but got a 250 GB, rather than the 160. What I have to install anything, or have complicated everything to do? I don't know how to install it physically just don't know if I have to use my discs of recovery or something like that?

    Bravo guys

    Hello

    There is no difficult things to do to swap the HARD drive. Which is a fairly simple process and he s done in 5 minutes I think.

    I have the Satellite L300 in front of me. To swap the HARD drive, turn off the laptop and remove the battery and the AC adapter. On the underside, you can find the cover of the HARD drive which is fixed by 2 screws. Remove the screws and the cover of the HARD drive, you are now able to exchange the HARD drive.

    If you have any other questions, please let me know! :)

  • Re: Portégé R700 - how to install Windows 7 on new SSD?

    Hello!

    I want to change my HDD in Toshiba Portege R700 to SSD. How to install Windows 7 on this new SSD? I don't have any Windows installation disc.

    Or that it will be possible to move the partition of the old HDD to new SSD (using Acronis, I could move the partition on the new HARD drive)?

    I've heard of partition offset and this SSD block should be the same as FAT cluster (the same alignment).

    All advice? (I know should I defragment my HARD drive before moving :))

    Hey Buddy,

    > I do not have any Windows installation disc.
    Create the Toshiba recovery disc as mentioned in the manual of the user before you exchange the disc, then you have a Setup disk. The Toshiba recovery disc will restore parameters of the box with all the drivers and tools. It can be used on each disc and how many times you want.

    After this change the drive and start the Toshiba recovery disc. Follow the instructions on the screen and everything will be installed.

    Check this box!

  • How to install Vista from the recovery disk without defining partitions?

    Hello

    I have my recovery disk and I have installed a new 320 gb HHD.
    When I installed the recovery disc, it re done the 160 GB partitions in each (2 partitions more the 1 recovery partition)...

    But I want to dual boot with XP pro because of software problems and I prefer it sometimes...
    I redid my scores, 1 - 51 GB for XP pro(32bit), 2nd - 51 GB for vista (32 gb) and the 3rd - 210 gb is for storage

    How to install with Toshiba vista o/s and stuff that comes with it on the recovery disc, immediately to the 2nd partition without affecting how I configure the hard drive...

    I have about 100 GB of photos, music, and cam vids on storage, with nowhere to put them, so I can't risk, because some are copy only (so it might be a good idea to let me know how I save this s on my storage spread in the DVD please)

    If I can t, then can some1 please tell me how to get my Toshiba OEM vista off this recovery disk or a link for me?

    Hope all this makes sense lol... Thank you
    Shane

    If you have so much important material best save is to buy an external HARD drive and copy all this stuff here. I recommend buying the small 2.5 external HDD and when necessary, you can take with you and connect to any computer, if you want to view or copy this file. External hard discs connected to other computers with a supplied USB cable.

    Return to your partitions.
    When you use the original Toshiba DVD facilities, you will have 3 partitions.
    WinRE - partition and it belongs to the Vista operating system. This partition is not visible, and this isn't some sort of Toshiba recovery partition
    -C for Vista partition
    Or-d/E to the DATA in the partition. This partition is recorded recovery image in the folder called HDDRecovery
    I don't know what model of laptop you have, but this configuration is on all new Toshiba laptops shipped WITHOUT recovery media.

    Using Toshiba recovery media, you will be able to get exactly mentioned structure of the partitions. Support to recovery facilities using you WILL NOT be able to install Vista on the second partition.

    So if you want to have the dual boot with Windows XP Home edition, you can do following:
    -At first, you are going to install Vista with support of recovery and on the second partition, you are going to install your version of Windows XP Home edition
    -At first you will be installing WXP and then you can install Vista on the second partition, but you must use the Microsoft facilities drive. Recovery media can not be used.

    That's all I can say from my experience with such things.

  • HARD drive replacement, how to install Win7 on my Satellite L850?

    Hello world

    I recently bought a Satellite L850 lappy and I want to replace the 750 GB HDD with a SSD 256 GB.
    This laptop never came with a windows 7 cd or its driver cd (not too worried about it as I can find it online).

    I wonder how to install windows 7 on this ssd? Download windows 7 image from a Web site (found this [http://www.mydigitallife.info/windows-7-iso-x86-and-x64-official-direct-download-links-ultimate-professional-and-home-premium/]) and just enter my product key when you are prompted as a whole to the top?

    I'm quite new to these new methods as my last toshiba laptop came with everything that I needed.
    Thanks for your time

    If your upgrade or replacement of HARD drive will be a success, you must install a clean version of the OS. How you will get is actually your problem, but it turns out that you must use the legal version and activate it using the legal product key.

    All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support and download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    We can help you with the installation and the right installation order.

  • Adding an SSD as a boot drive - how to install Windows Vista Start

    To speed up my new e9105z, I bought a new 80 GB Intel X - 25 M to reduce disk latency and complete the 640GO HARD drive came with my computer.

    Drive has been installed successfully, recognized by the PC and formatted with the Windows Vista Disk Manager tool.  When I use the BIOS tool to set the Intel SSD as my boot drive, it says that some files of startup is missing, and I come to on the HARD disk as the startup disk.

    Bottom line: how to install Windows Vista on the SSD and configure it to start?  Did I lose my classic HDD data in the process?

    Thank you

    Here is where I am/measures taken.  HP of course makes this difficult process:

    (1) used the CD Creator to make a backup.  (Note that the CD - R does not work with the e9105z software.  Do only DVD-R).  (I tried the system HARD disk recovery image.  He simply reinstalled itself on the HARD disk.)

    (2) the value of Vista installed on the SSD via backup DVDs.  System starts beautifully with SSD.  Hooray! I was about to declare mission accomplished, then...

    (3) Reconnected my HDD SATA cable, she failed to be the startup disk.

    (4) I used disk management to reformat the HARD drive to erase its boot sector.  It is always default to the HARD disk, which is more a Vista on it.  Now, I must go into the BIOS and choose the Intel SSD as boot drive whenever I turn on manually.

    Any idea on what needs to be done to configure the BIOS to finally settle the SSD as my boot drive?  The backup system image is still on the old hard drive.  Could that be throwing?

    The SSD speed is great, but the 6 + hours spent on Vista reinstall, reinstall and reinstall throughout this trial and error process made a royal PITA to do.  It seems that HP didn't consider that whether by adding a second drive that is bootable.

    Thank you

    millergd

    You should be able to select the startup disk in the BIOS.  Restoring image shouldn't be a factor.  If the BIOS settings do not work, I would swap the connectors between the readers.

    Good luck

    I don't think that you can install Windows 7 with Boot Camp on El Capitan:

    • A Microsoft Windows installation media or disc image (ISO) containing a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows 8 or later *.

    From: How to install Windows using Boot Camp - Apple Support.

    Windows 10 is simply too new for your Mac, and Windows 7 is too old. It is quite a difficult situation. If you really need Windows, you would need to get a copy of Windows 8, or put to level to an earlier version of Mac OS X with a version of Boot Camp that works in Windows 7.
