In Tecra A8 DVD drive replacement

My DVD player is down, I already have a replacement drive.

Does anyone have an idea where the output of the DVD player is located so I can get out? I unscrewed a few screws, but it won't come out.

Tecra A8 is the same as the Satellite Pro A120

To swap the DVD drive, you must remove the keyboard.
It's a little tricky and in my opinion if you n t have much experience with this you should go to a local ASP and ask a technician for help.

  • A6000n PC DVD drive replacement

    I have an old HP Pavilion a6000n desktop PC computer that I've updated Vista to Windows 7 I.  The DVD eject button is unresponsive and I am wanting to buy a replacement.  I looked at the specs for the DVD player and found that this is a 'drive 16 X DVD (+/-) R/RW RAM (+/-) R DL LightScribe"but it does not specify whether it uses an IDE cable or SATA connection and looking around site of HP and the internet in general didn't give me any help.  Did anyone know, so that I could buy the correct replacement for my computer drive?  Please help, thanks.

    MFonnesbeck

    Thank you for all your advice.  I looked inside my computer case and found that the unit uses an IDE cable (you were right @wb2001 - my computer was difficult to access, being hidden under a desk, and so I was trying to avoid that, so my @lasvegaswireman questions).  I saw 3 other available ports for SATA connections (as @Paul_Tikkanen said) and a power cable which forks 2 fittings power Molex and ended with a SATA power connection.  I looked around and couldn't find a DVD IDE burner (right once again @wb2001), unless I went used, so I decided to buy a new HP DVD burner that happened to come with a SATA cable.  So I have a SATA cable connection, I have SATA power cable connection and ports available to connect, so I should be good to go.  Thank you all for your comments and for pushing me just open my computer and watch.

  • Replace the DVD drive with lightscribe on Satellite M60

    Is it possible to buy a lightscribe for the M60 dvd drive replace a normal drive. I have a lot of videos that I made more certain that I bought and I transfer them to DVD, it would also be useful to label the disks that hold backups and plans that we use. I prefer the direct info disc rather then print the labels and stick them onto the disc printing. I can do the work myself if I get hold of the drive and the driver.
    There is still a lot more left life warranty Toshiba in the machine and I am reluctant to update. I have two other M60s in my office and they gave very good service.

    Thank you Russell.

    Hello

    If you take the risk that your warranty would be voided and you find a compatible player then do it. Sorry, but if I were you, I would buy an external USB-DVD/RW lightscribe capabilities. It s fast enough and he would support lightscribe that you need.

    It's the only option I'd choose, but I would´t screws my machine during the warranty only for some purposes "DVD-labeling"...

  • Tecra S3 and the replacement DVD drive

    Hello

    Portable model is Tecra S3 PTS30A-03E008
    DVD disc model is UJ - 832
    DVD player reference number is G8CC0002Q120

    The DVD drive no longer works and I'm looking to install a new one. Is the Toshiba Ultra Slim Bay DVD SuperMulti Drive
    Part number - PA3473U-1DV6 the correct replacement drive?

    Thank you

    Warren

    As I see in the paper manuals for your Tecra s user I can see two optical disk drives are listed as compatible:
    MATSU * A UJDA765
    MATSU * A UJ-832

    Reference numbers are not known to me, but I recommend you to use only compatible devices.

  • Replacement of Tecra M9 DVD MultiRecorder Panasonic UJ-852

    Hello

    Unfortunatelly in my Tecra M9 DVD multirecorder is broken.
    It no longer works. System to 'see' it, but no reading CD or DVD, or writing is possible.

    I was looking for the recorder ultraslim PANASONIC UJ-852, but it is very difficult to find.

    So I bought the Panasonic UJ - 832 - almost the same driver (different write speeds).
    But BIOS informed me: ERROR INCORRECT of the BAY and the OS doesn't see at all.

    I also put the LG GSA-U10N multirecorder ultraslim wife U-300 toshiba unit but BIOS again informed me: ERROR INCORRECT of the BAY.

    What it means?
    Are there opportunities that I can replace my DVD broke to the other by myself?
    What I have to buy only UJ-852? Can someone help me?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Maybe you bought a CD/DVD drive that is not compatible, and BIOS can not recognize this because of bad master/slave/c-salt settings.

    The settings for the desktop PC readers is editable using the jumper.
    The computer s portable slim CD/DVD discs online are controlled by the firmware and you cannot change these settings if you don t have the right firmware.

    So I think that you have to buy another compatible
    I recommend to ask the ASP in your country for a compatible ODD

  • Satellite Pro L20 - DVD optical drive replacement

    I'm looking for some advice, thanks, regards access to disc DVD/CD on my Pro L20.

    My current car has passed away, but I was hoping (temporarily) replace it with my old car Saturday 1130.
    Before even I can check to see if compatible, I have a problem in removing the existing carpet * a unit... UJ841S there are 2 screws likely below, but I think I'll also remove first the keyboard.

    I'm embarrassed about the lifting of the (?) metal strip that runs along the top of the keyboard... of clues on how to do it?

    And am I correct in having to delete the "Board of Directors?
    Thanks in advance...

    Yes, you will need to remove the keyboard, because under the keyboard, you will find a screw that holds the CD/DVD drive.
    First, then remove the thin plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons and remove the 2 screws securing the keyboard.

    Then you could lift the keyboard carefully (don't forget the keyboard cable flat that connect the keyboard to the motherboard)
    Then remove the two screws holding the optical disk drive.

    Then turn the computer, remove the two screws (at the bottom of the unit) fixing the ODD.
    Then pull on the STRANGE carefully.

    This description should help you to remove the disc.

    But if you don t have enough experience; Don t this and ask the technician for help!
