I can add a 2nd HDD on my Satellite A300 - 02c?

Hi all

I wonder if it is possible to add a 2nd HDD in my A300 - 02c?
There is a HDD 2 slot, but no sata connector on the card (see the link to the image).

http://www.NotebookReview.com/picture.asp?f=36752

I wonder if it is possible to add the connector (by myself or by the customer service).
If anyone knows if it is possible and where can I buy the sata connector... Please leave a comment :)

Adrien.

I think that there is nothing you can do about it.
Satellite A300 comes with several different hardware configurations and several different mothers. Really, I don't think that you can add it in addition.

FYI exact nearest maintainer contact authorized Toshiba and ask for help.

If anyone has any experience with this stuff then the Toshiba service technicians.

    Satellite a300 20 p has 2 slots for HDD
    Can I add another next to the existing one?

    Hello

    You can check it out yourself.
    There should be a second HARD drive Bay.
    Remove the second HDD Bay cover and check if there is a disk (PIN) connector.
    If you find not all connectors so that would mean that a second HARD disk controller is not available and the 2nd HARD drive usage is not possible.

    Hello

    Maybe you don't see the second HARD drive connectors because the phone does not support the 2nd HARD drive?
    Not all laptops even if the 2nd HARD drive Bay is available, support two hard drives.
    Laptops come with different hardware and different motherboards, but with the same coverage
    So the bays for HARD drives are available, but the motherboard does not support the 2nd HARD drive interface.

  • How can I install windows XP on my Satellite A300-129

    Hello

    Since a few days, I bought a Toshiba Satellite A300-129. I am very satisfied with the laptop, although I do not work with Vista, so I prefer the laptop reformat and install Windows XP Professional(32 or 64 bits, dunno yet).

    However I do not know if I have to do something special for him, because it's my first laptop I have and I haven't had that one time a laptop with drivers on a CD. Now I'm spending operating system, I think I need some disk driver for my webcam and stuff like that.

    I hope some1 can help me :)

    Thank you very much

    BTW, I'm Dutch, sorry for my English.

    > And I have a legitimate XP Pro license, but I n t understand what you mean with the things of the sata driver. do you mean that I have to ADD the drivers on the disk with windows XP?

    The point is that your Windows XP CD does not contain the SATA drivers that are needed to recognize the HARD drive during XP installation procedure.
    So, you need to include the SATA driver by pressing the F6 key while installing XP is loading. For this procedure, an external floppy drive unit is necessary.

    If you n t have an external USB FDD drive, then you could create a CD of Win XP and could include the SATA drivers using the free software called nLite.

    A single note; Use the search function of the forums for research on other threads on the nLite and how to create CDs. I remember that there are many discussions in the forum on this topic.

  • Re: Can foreign supply in question on my Satellite A300

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my satellite A300, which is difficult to explain, and I have not found this problem anywhere elsewhere in the forums. I'm not a computer expert and I will try to explain the problem.

    When the battery is fully charged and I turn on the laptop, I can use the laptop for 5 minutes and I get a warning to reconnect. When I plug in, the system crashes. Nothing don't move or nothing happens. Press and hold the power for a few seconds and the system is off. I reload and restart once again and I play video sopcast or request some other videos and then plug-in system, it works fine. Once again I can use the system unplugged for just a few minutes, if I plug it crashes.

    If you play sopcast, plugin, it works.
    If I start the system in safe mode, it starts very well and I can use the system as long as I want. Even though I have the plugin in safe mode, it works fine.
    I checked with some experts and they say that the graphics card has disappeared. Some say that it could be a virus. Some say that it is a problem with the battery and charger.

    Please help me. I am writing my thesis today, and all my data is in this system.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Start your laptop and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings. On the first page (main), you can see some basic information on CPU, speed of the processor, RAM and also on HARD drive.

    When you enter the BIOS settings check that and then set the default settings. You can do this by using F9button (see background task with options bar).

  • How can I change/remove password BIOS on Satellite A300?

    I have a satellite A300-1BZ running Windows vista Home premium. For some reason, there intermittentlystarted requesting a password of BIOS or boot when I turn on. I have never put this password myself and have no idea how or where to look to remove it.

    I can turn on if I remove the battery without asking for the password, but if I shut off and turn on again, then it asks again. Advice apprecieated.

    Thank you.
    Chris

    The history is somewhat strange. Cannot set password BIOS only.
    Is anyone else using your laptop?

    > I can light up if I remove the battery without asking for the password, but if I shut off and turn on again, then it asks again.
    To be honest I don t understand this. If you just understand that you can use your laptop and bypass the BIOS password if you turn the notebook on power only, right?
    But with the battery inside it start and ask BIOS password?

  • Can I install a 2nd HDD in my Satellite P200 - 10 c?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P200 - 10 c that I want to spend with a 2nd HARD drive. I called a Toshiba representative who told me that my model does not support another HARD disk. But then again, why she has a place at the back of the laptop for a 2nd one?

    Could someone tell me if it can be used to host a 2nd HARD drive.

    Thanks in advance
    Gerardo

    Hello

    What say if they said you model laptop does not support the second HDD while you can not improve with second HARD drive.
    The user manual which can be downloaded from the Toshiba page says that this option is only available on several models of the p200 series. But it seems that your notebook does not support!

  • Can I use second HDD on my Satellite P300-PSPCCE?

    Hi all

    I have a German P300-PSPCCE bought a few months ago. I noticed that the laptop has two bays for 2.5 "sata DISKS, which one is already ocupied by the drive by default, and the other has some ankles plastic on the portable drive door, which makes impossible to another harddrive on the Bay.

    The question is: if I remove the pins plastic of the door drive and put another HARD disk, with appropriate fixing stuff, the laptop can handle? (power, motherboard compatibility and so on...)

    The second is:

    Recently, I had an old P200 mother due to a bad Connection USB with an experimental device that I developed burn.
    Now it s hard to find this old P200 motherboard.
    I m planning to buy a motherboard of the P300-PSPCCE mine, but I Don t know where to find such a thing, so I m asking if anyone knows where I can find it, please can U show me the way?

    Thanks for any answers

    Daniel.

    Hello Daniel

    My brother has Satellite P300 and we found the same situation.
    Most important is if your laptop has connector to the second HARD drive. If so, you can connect but it needs the HARD drive cover.
    My brother has deleted these rods plastic carefully and everything is OK now. It uses 250 GB SATA HDD.

    Old motherboard, you can try to get a Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.
    Another way Google a little bit and see if you can find some online store where you can order one.
    Another option is to check eBay.
    Maybe you can find some old P200 with broken screen, but with good working motherboard.

  • Can I replace the HDD on my Satellite W30DT-A-100?

    Hi all
    Unfortunately, the internal hard drive of my W30DT-A-100 isn t the fastest. Therefore, there is the possibility to replace it with an SSD?
    Thanks for your comments :)
    HJF

    In my opinion, this hardware upgrade is certainly possible, but due to construction and specific design, it must be done by authorized personnel only.
    All components are placed under the hood of the LCD screen and remove the cover of the LCD screen is pretty tricky.

    In my opinion, you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They can do for you and more importantly that you won't lose valid warranty.

  • I can integrated Toshiba MK1237GSX HDD on my Satellite L40?

    Hello
    Can someone please advise me if this drive is suitable for installation in a L40?
    Kind regards... Terence.

    Hello!

    I have used Google for this part number of the HARD drive and is it true that this HARD drive is 120 GB and SATA interface?

    If so I'm pretty sure that this HARD drive will work in the Satellite L40 because it has a SATA interface and I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work.
    How do you think about this?

    Good bye

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and you must use a SATA 2.5 HARD.

    You should be able to use any HDD SATA controller SATA HDD is not limited to any size. I think that the BIOS should also support a 320 GB HARD drive or more

    Hope this might help you
