Instructions on installing hard disk for Satellite M30 832

Anyone know how much it would be easy to upgrade my 40 GB hard drive? Ive bought a 80 GB (model MK8025GAS number) and don't really know where to start.

Hello

Open the covers on the bottom of the laptop. If you can get access to the disk in this way, then you can easily replace. But otherwise, it is best to let it be performed by a technician because you must remove half of the laptop.

Good bye

  • Update hard disk for Satellite 1900 102

    Hi all

    I used to work with a Toshiba Satellite 1900 102 since July 2002 and March my hard drive has stopped working (maybe it was time).
    Where can I buy records 2.5 "that this series of satellites can be supported?

    What is the maximum capacity (in GB) laptop that recognizes the old man?

    Thanks for all your help!

    Hello

    2.5 hard drives can be bought anywhere I think then, either you contact an authorized service provider or you visit your favorite computer store.

    I think that the Satellite 1900 limits the 28-bit LBA. This would mean that the size of the HARD disk is limited to 128 GB. The maximum capacity is 120 GB that you can use, but I think that 80 GB would be enough according to your amount of files you want to save on the HARD drive.

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

  • New update of hard disk for Satellite L670D-102

    Hello

    I need to get windows 7 on my old hard drive and on my new hard drive update. I can't find "media copy" file/folder. I did a windows disc when I arrived as he forced me to do but only loads a 'safe' version of windows on the new hd and wonder for other discs.

    Local dealer believes there are 3 back up discs to load up. I tried to save, but it takes more than 7 DVDs and still unfinished when I run out of time. Takes all day to do it. I tried an 'image system' through the windows and that works, but said that the new disk is the same size that the old image of disk system has been removed. Old drive 250 GB I think, new drive is 1 TB. Local dealer said try to reset the computer to the factory and see if "copy media" thread/folder reappears.

    Someone at - it ideas please!

    At first, I must say that you must tell us which model of laptop you have exactly.

    In general the whole situation is pretty simple. Your laptop came with the version of the OS pre-installed (recovery image). Using preinstalled Toshiba media creator you recovery tool can create bootable recovery (DVD or USB) media that you can use for the installation of recovery.

    After HDD just change boot image recovery this recovery media created facility.

    To be honest I do not understand your ad and you wrote all this has created media.

  • Update hard disk for Satellite LT55-1NM

    Hello

    My hard drive from Toshiba Satellite LT55-1NM died (he was a 640 GB)

    I want to take the oportunuty to upgrade a higher capacity drive,

    Are up to are my options? Type of disc? Max capacity etc.

    Thanks in advance!

    Atlantico

    What you need is the new SATA HDD. You can of course buy HARD drive with more capacity.
    In any case, I think you should maybe buy SSD and increase the performance of your laptop. I upgraded my Satellite phone with SSD and it runs much faster than before. I don't know if the capacity is so important to you, but I think the 500GB SSD would be the right solution for you.

    I agree with Akuma. You can try using the drive HARD IDE 2.5 up to 100-120 GB.
    I think that by using a 100 GB shouldn't t be a problem

  • Update hard disk for Satellite 1000 z2

    I learned that I can only spend my hard drive Satellite 1000 to 20 GB. Please anyone know if that is correct? The laptop has a 6 GB at the moment.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I found the information that your device supports 15 GB of HARD drive. Maybe it's the official statement from Toshiba, but that you will be lucky with 20 GB of HARD drive. Try it!

  • Need info on type of hard disk for Satellite A100

    I have a model of Satellite A100 (PSAA9E)

    It used to power up, but I need all the info on the hard drive, which models are compatible (plug-and-play style) so I can buy a 2nd hand laptop and use my old hard drive
    (assuming this is possible)

    Thank you

    In Satellite A100 a SATA interface HARD drive and if you want to use the data you can simply buy box USB HDD and connect it to any PC or laptop as external device.
    So you will have full access to all the data stored there.

  • Need advice on the new hard disk for Satellite A60 302

    I want a new hard drive in my laptop (Satellite A60-302) t. This is - http://www.seagate.com/cda/products/discsales/marketing/detail/0, 1596,736,00.html drive, to adapt to the laptop?

    ATI Radeon 9600/9700 mobility driver for Satellite M30

    Hope it works somehow been research throughout the day now :(

    Hello

    It s your lucky day my friend.
    Check out this site and download the drivers you need:

    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    http://www.OmegaDrivers.NET/

    The drivers are native drivers for Nvidia/ATI, but the file *.inf (files containing the settings for maps and information material) have been adjusted for mobile systems. This means that you can install on your machine, and by the way, you will get the most current drivers.

  • I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

    I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

    You can add another drive to accept backups Time Machine... assuming it is correctly formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled), but things are not exactly "continue."

    You have not indicated if you intend to add the player to the USB port on the Time Capsule, or connect directly to your computer using USB or FireWire connections. Or the other method works, with the option to connect directly to the computer being the faster connection.

    Once the disc is added, you would go in Time Machine preferences (click the "clock" at the top of the screen on your Mac) to add the disk for Time Machine backups and delete the old Time Capsule disk, since backups will go is no longer this destination.

    Since you have a new drive, Time Machine will do a new full backup of your Mac and then go forward with incremental backups.

  • Unable to install audio drivers for Satellite 3005-S303

    Unable to install audio drivers for Satellite 3005 - S303, Windows XP SP2 installation of the Realtek AC97 drivers automatically, but with the error (blue screen). I tried to install the drivers of Crystal or Cirrus but Windows always changed for Realtek.

    Hello

    I found information on the net that this device supports a Crystal CS4299-A Codec chip.
    In this case, it should be possible to use the Crystal audio driver.
    As far as I know that he is an American unit. I searched the site of driver Toshiba us and have found a Crystal audio driver but only for Windows 98SE/Me/2000.
    If you have found the right driver, so I recommend you to remove first the driver of his former (Device Manager), then install the new.

    Here you can compare as you installed the BIOS with BIOS which is available on the site we Tosh.

  • Workstation 8 Shared VMs on different hard disks for autostart

    Hi people:

    Is anyway to take advantage of the feature work station 8 sharing VMs autostart with the start-up of the host OS, but have several virtual machines on different hard drives? Ideally, I would like to have VMs on separate hard disks for performance problems. \

    I really don't want to go on the road of ESXi right now. Is it possible to "autostart" other than via the shared "VMs" component of VMware workstation VMs 8? I think this would be a trivial feature to add to the workstation 8 and would make great useful for young kids like me.

    Best regards, Dave Melnyk

  • Hard drive replacement for Satellite M30 604

    Problems with my hard drive and wanting to change it. Think original was an IC25N060ATMR04-0, what appears to be a Hitachi 4200 RPM 60 GB UDMA hard drive with an 8 Meg buffer. Can I replace it with a bigger, faster disk? If yes should which technique I have? Grateful for any ideas!

    Hello

    So, just be sure to install a disk IDE and not SATA. The rest is obsolete since you don t have to take care for all care such as speed or the cache. Just take the most large drive you can download and install it.

    That's all. In the case of any questions do your thougts throw in this forum here ;)

    The recovery CD can be purchased from suppliers of services authorized in your country. These CD s are not expensive.
