• Can satellite A100-847 - I replace my current HARD drive with a SATA2 HARD drive?

  Hello

  I am currently using a Satellite A100-847 with a 100 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive. I plan to change with a Western Digital WD2500BEKT 250 GB SATA2 16 MB 2.5 inch laptop hard drive 7200 TRM. Is it possible to replace my current HARD drive which is SATA with a one SATA2?

  And if not what is my best option upgrade of the mine to a HARD fast (7200 RPM) disc?

  Hello!

  Yes, you can replace the current drive with a SATA2 HARD disk. You already have a SATA interface, and this means that you can use each HDD with SATA interface.

  I don't know Mr. but as far as I know the Satellite A100 cannot use the speed of SATA1. This means that the new HARD drive maybe won't work with SATA1 speed but there is no significant difference in performance.

  A HARD drive with 7200 RPM is really fast, but don t forget it produces more heat and needs more electric battery. A HARD disk at 5400 RPM is perhaps fast enough for you?

  Good bye

• Can how SSD I use on Portege R400

  Hello

  Does anyone know if there is a disc in the solid state that can be used? The Toshiba drives are without danger, but slow. A solid state drive is safe and * fast *.

  Can someone suggest a drive good solid state (round 100 GB)?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can use any disk SSD, but it should support the good interface.
  As far as I know, you have to use SATA SSDS

  I have read a few computer magazines and these SSD seems to be ok;

  Corsair CMFSSD-128GBG2D P128 SSD
  Super Talent Ultradrive ME FTM28GX25H
  Kingston SSD Now M-Series SNM125-S2 80GB

• Re: Can what SSD I use for Portege R400-103

  Hello

  I have a R400-103 and you want to replace the current drive with a drive at about 80 to 120 GB solid state.
  I've already asked about it in this forum, but I'm still not sure what I need (interface, dimensions and so).

  Currently, there is a [MK8007GAH | http://sdd.toshiba.com/main.aspx?Path=StorageSolutions/1.8-inchHardDiskDrives/MK8007GAH] current hard drive. How SSD can be a good replacement for this?

  I think the interface type is Ultra ATA/100 (ZIF, ATA Micro), but I don't know if it's the only thing that's importang

  If anyone can help me with additional information about what to look for and maybe a few models that are a good substitute, it would be very useful.

  Thanks for any help.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  AFAIK the protégé R400 when equipped with the 80 GB 1.8 IDE HDD (PATA, enhanced IDE ATA-6).
  The HARD drive had a height of 8mm.

  If you want to upgrade the R400 with a SSD then you should use an SSD that is supported by the IDE and SSD should be 1.8

  But I didn't find out about the Toshiba page on compatibility SSD so you'll have to test it on your own hand

• I used my iMac as a hard drive backup to my macbook once. Now when I update to El Capitan he says that it cannot be updated due to being of a backup. How do I change the drive mode so I can update?

  I used my iMac as a hard drive backup to my macbook once. Now when I update to El Capitan he says that it cannot be updated due to being of a backup. How do I change the drive mode so I can update?

  If you use your iMac as a backup to disk using Time Machine look for a folder called Backups.backupdb.

  It's what keeps you upgraded your operating system, you must remove it.

  Copy everything first if you are on a different drive. It would be wise to create a backup of the iMac on another drive also.

  Check system preferences > Time Machine and make sure that the iMac is not selected as the Time Machine drive.

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

• How to use the recovery with a new ssd disk after the death of original hard drive

  I thought I had a simple fix/upgrade for my dv5 - 2077cl.

  decided to replace the defective hard drive with an SSD. couldn't afford a 240 GB size but it's big enough for my needs.

  I installed the new drive easily and cycled through my 4 recovery disc reinstall the minimum overlap. After you delete the last record, the screen goes gray and there is a cursor in the top left corner for more than 10 hours.

  I finally it turned off and tried again two times the same results. I removed the DDI and run disk management on it from my other laptop and an external cable to remove the partiion and create a single partition. Tried to install windows xp on a disk that I own this isn't an update or restore disc thinking I might switch to windows 7 32 bit because I own and upgrade the disks also. even if it is a 64-bit system, but I do not have any disk 64-bit except the recovery disks that didn't seem to work.

  When I ran the xp it seemed to work but then I got the blue screen that said there is no drivers for the SDS (the error is as follows stop0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000))

  So I guess I need to have a windows 7 install disk rather than the recovery discs?

  the SSD is a Silicon Power S70 240 GB.

  any suggestions?

  Recovery discs usually require a hard drive of equal or greater capacity. XP doesn't have SATA drivers Sockets.

  If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

• Can I use time capsule as external hard drive?

  Can I use time capsule as external hard drive so that I can access a file or a specific folder by searching for its name?

  A TC is now and for always player network... no external. So there are limits to its use.

  If you are multitasking your TC with Time Machine and then using a DMG file as a virtual drive is better than directly copy files... However sharing becomes impossible. One person at a time can open the DMG.

  See pondini. T3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html

  Old but still interesting to read.

  You can certainly create a folder on the TC and copy your files on it, and then perform a search. Research is slow on wireless is so the speed of transfer of large files. With the help of ethernet is certainly encouraged to desktop computers.

  Sharing folders on the TC is also now more difficult with increasing security at El Capo and OS later. You do not create on the computer records are not available. And even the ones you create can occasionally and autonomous change permissions (since the TC controls drive not the computer), you lock your own files on... I answer these questions once a week.

  Not all software on Mac supports using network drives. The most difficult is photos that can corrupt the library due to disconnections... which are the most common wireless. Be warned backups are important and not easy to do because of the slowness of the USB port on the TC and you end up really need to another location on the network for backup on.

  Generally, I advise the people not not to use the TC for direct files... That is to say, if you edit a document, make sure that it is on a local drive... When you have finished the document, you can copy it to the network drive and delete the local version. Easy for... not so easy documents for photos with major libraries.

  A TC cannot save itself and Time Machine backup impossible network drives... This means that no backup will be your files in the TC, unless you take the initiative and do it.

• How can I copy video to a DVD on my hard drive in Windows XP?

  Original title: not a wiz here pc... How can I copy video to a DVD on my hard drive... I have windows XP?
  need help please... thank you in advance.

  If the DVD is "not" a commercial copy protected DVD...
  the following steps may be worth a try:

  When you insert the DVD in your DVD player... close
  all the windows that can open and then go to... Start /.
  Computer... right click the icon for the DVD player
  is located in, and then select Explore or open to view the
  Directory of the DVD.

  The files you need from the DVD are the. VOB files.
  You will find them in the VIDEO_TS folder. Copy them
  in a folder on your hard drive. Or you can copy the
  full VIDEO_TS folder.

  First... just try to rename one of the. VOB files to
  . MPG or. AVI and see if it will matter in Movie Maker.
  If import works... drag the file to the timeline and
  Economy/publication it to .wmv or .avi format. Then...
  Re - import new video from .wmv to for editing.
  (Note: in Windows 7 you may be able to import the)
  VOB files in Movie Maker just as they are)

  (FWIW... you can probably play the files renamed
  in Windows Media Player to be sure that VOB
  file to edit)

  If you are unable to import the files they need to be converted
  another .wmv format would be a good choice.

  There are many programs that can do conversions...
  The following freeware is an example...:

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  Format Factory
  http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
  (the 'direct link' is faster)
  (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip<>
  (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
  ('all' boxes on the last screen)

  First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
  Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
  and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

  Next, after the download and installation of Format
  Factory... you can open the program and
  left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
  "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
  (this is where you find your files after they)
  are converted)

  Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

  Select "all to WMV" / OK...

  Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

  That should do it...

  Good luck...

• How can I move the Virtual Mode of Windows XP hard drive to another drive

  How can I move the Virtual Mode of Windows XP hard drive to another drive?

  TIA

  Hi Benyl,

  The vhd in programfiles basis cannot be moved or renamed, if done, xp mode stops at the start.

  To move the files under c, first to boot xp, instead of save mode the machine virtual., turn it off. (settings to prompt the user for action narrow close). Close the machine virtual., and then choose stop. This will remove the vsv file. Do not delete the .vsv file because it contains data if you have not registered in the virtual machine.

  Now, move it "C:\Users\CHRIS.domainname\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows virtual PC\Virtual Machines\Windows XP Mode.vhd" to a desired location.

  Parameters of xp mode open, go to the hard drive 1 setting and reposition the hard drive to the new location of the vhd. You should now be able to start the virtual machine.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• 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.

  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.

• HP 2000: How to retrieve the memory of the old hard drive?

  Hello. Recently, I replaced my old hard drive with another because that is a malfunction that made sure I got stuck in a loop start and nowhere else after auto repair. I was told that if I buy a hard drive enclosure that I might have a possibility to recover my old data to my new in copying and pasting on, several sources on the internet said this as well.

  So when I put my old hard drive in the enclosure and that connected to my laptop, it pulls up. But it gives me a folder named "Recovery". Inside is another folder named 'WindowsRE' with a few other components. In which is a file named "WinUCRD.wim". I've been looking around for what I can do with it. The only thing I can find is a program called Windows SIM, it does not matter where, and I don't know how to use it.

  My question is, how can I recover my data from my old data? I honestly don't mind if my new hard drive memory is overwritten. He barely anything on it as I just got. I have files important school in there I can not risk losing. I have to start all over again before final in a few weeks.

  

  The partition you are looking at is the recovery Partition.  This is for the recovery of your operating system, not the user tour data.  Looking at your screenshots I suggest you look at the F: drive, he can have the files you need.

  If the F: drive is corrupted migh you take a look at a data recovery program.  I had good success with Easus Data Recovery, it allowed me to recover files to a friend after a drive failure when no other program, that I tried would work.  Here, there is a free version that will recover up to 2 GB of data.

• How to switch my system on a larger hard drive without having to reinstall the OS and lose my data?

  replace the hard drive

  I'm looking to replace my hard drive but I need all the files it is about it, passing a small hard drive to a larger hard drive. My question is how can I save all the files on the disk and how can I get the operating system on the new hard drive without the original disk

  If your current system does not work, there is no need to bother with data backup, installation of applications and get a Windows XP installation CD (although regular backups are important to do as a general practice).

  Instead, clone your current hard drive to your new hard drive.  All you need is an external hard drive enclosure and disk cloning software.  In addition, once you have made sure that everything works correctly, put the old drive in the external box and use it for backups.

  Some of the cloning apps below are also disk 'images' (e.g. Acronis True Image).  A disk image can be compressed so that, for example 58 GB of data can produce a 40 GB image file.  Some of the apps, and of also can selectively backup specified files.

  The housings of external drives more to connect to a USB port.  Make sure just that buy you one with the good 'form factor' (portable = 2.5 inches, computer desktop/Tower = 3.5 inches) and internal drive connector.  Many but not all speakers can deal with SATA and PATA time.

  This example (for laptops) is not the less expensive external hard drive enclosure, but it's a decent case that can be used with either SATA or IDE (PATA) drives and comes with its own software package of cloning: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

  It is a very good buy for a drive IDE (PATA) Office size: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817155602

  In general, Newegg is a good place for your search options by looking at the comments by users.

  If you have a Western Digital hard drive, you can get a version of Acronis True Image free of WD (http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119) or you can get the software of cloning separately (this is not an exhaustive list and in no particular order, some are free, some not):
