Is it possible to install the second disk in Satellite A300-15 a PSAJ4E

Hello!

I just bought Satellite A300-15A (PSAJ4E).
I read in some reviews that these models have an empty space for an additional HARD drive, but that some models do not have an additional connector for a second HDD.

I wonder if it is possible to install the second HARD drive in my A300-15 has.

Thank you!

Hello Ivo

To be clear: A300 laptop come with a few different hardware configurations. Some of them with one and some of them with two hard drives. The plastic case is the same for all models of laptops and you can find room for the second HARD drive, but the motherboard is not the same and not stretch with the second HARD drive.

Remove the cover from the HARD drive to the second HARD drive and let us know if the HARD drive connector is available.
I'm sure that there is no connector.

    I bought a new one 500 GB and I installed windows xp sp3

    You said that the hard drives are sata but your bios recognizes them as IDE depending on your position. You might have to set your bios to operate in sata mode or enable AHCI of have recognized them as sata. Regarding the error you get, look in the system BIOS to boot from hard disk command menu. This is different from the command menu of usual starting where you choose each time you start a cd ROM or hard drive ect... The parameter that I refer to determine which hard drive of your computer starts on the first. Change to the primary master 500 GB disk > save your settings and restart your computer. Even if one is defined as main and the other slave is not serious. Some bios have the ability to choose what hard drive to boot from. In other words, it is adjustable to start first on the slave drive.

  • Possible to install the second hard drive in the p6110f Pavilion

    Is it possible to install a second hard drive, 1 TB Seagate, in the expansion on my Pavillion p6110f slot?

    Hello

    Your PC has a hard drive cage which will host two disks.  This how-to - HP document from removing a hard drive will show you the process to remove the hard drive cage.

    If you want to continue using the Expansion Bay then you will need a 5.25 "to 3.5" adapter support. NewEgg.com would bring such a support.  You also need a SATA data cable.  This how-to - HP article will give you an idea on how to use Expansion with a 5.25 device Bay ".  Check by the optical drinve for a spare SATA power connector.  If it is not available, then you will need to use a SATA power splitter.

  • Can I build at the second disk on Satellite P200-1I4?

    Hello!

    Before all sorry for my bad English. =((

    I have a toshiba SATELLITE P200-1I4 and the question is: can I install a HDD (additional) more. Or there is only one SATA slot in this laptop? Unfortunately for laptop is not close to me now, and I can't remove the back panel and see.
    On the web site of Toshiba, I can't find any information about it.

    More information:
    SATELLITE P200-1I4
    S/N: z7269306k - M/n: PSPB3E-0J601MRU

    Thanks, and I hope that all written above is understandable. =)

    Best thing you can do is to remove the cover for the second HARD drive and see if the HARD drive connector is available.
    If this is not the case, there is no possibility to upgrade the HARD drive.

    Maybe someone on this forum has the same laptop model and can check for you.

  • I can't put it on the second drive in Satellite A300-1EG

    Hello

    The question is whether I can put on the second HARD drive for laptop Toshiba A300-1EG, there is a place for one I found and what HARD drive it's, I mean 2.5 "and etc?

    As I read, there may be no connection to HARD drive, depending on model, how can I discovered?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You can check yourself.
    Remove the plastic cover that holds the second HARD drive Bay.
    Is there some HARD drive connectors, then you could install a second HDD.
    If the connectors are missing, then you will not be able to use the second HARD drive.

    I know that it s a little but confusing due to the second HDD bay but the fact is that different models A300 supports different motherboards and not all motherboards are equipped with two HARD disk controllers.

  • Recovery disk is deletes the data at the 2nd disk on Satellite A300?

    Hello
    I use a laptop Toshiba A300, which has 2 hard drives (250GB). The laptop has Windows Vista Home Edition 32-bit installed, but I want to change for Windows Vista 64-bit, which comes with the recovery disk, in order to use all 4 GB of RAM.

    I have all the backup data and move them to the 2nd HARD drive (D, C named first name).

    So I wonder if Recovery Wizard will delete the data of the two hard disks or just a 1st.

    Thanks in advance
    Kevin

    Hello

    Your laptop was equipped with HARD drive recovery option allows you to create the own Toshiba Recovery disk which would be contains the preinstalled operating system.
    In your case the Vista 32 bit.

    And Yes, install from the recovery disk format the whole HARD drive and removes all the disk, also of the second partition.

    That's why to create the recovery disk before you install or change anything on the HARD drive

  • Is it possible to install the same recovery XP 2 times on 2 partitions

    When I boot the second new system installed there say: installation is not complete, please reinstall!

    Thanks in advance

    What model of laptop you have exactly? As previous user written with former recovery media, it should be possible (I can't tell for sure) because the use of the expert installations you can choose the partition where the OS is to be installed.

    If you have newer model cell phone with new software to recovery (RECO) something like this is not possible.

    Hello

    You need two cables, one is a sata cable:

    http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/30305659/706331346/STARTech-com-6in-SATA-to-right-angle-SATA-serial-ATA-cable-female-SATA-female-SATA-6-inch-red/ListingDetails.html?_%24JA=TSID:13315% 7Ccat: 30305659% 7Cprd: 30305659 & kw = {keyword}

    This cable is only for data and connect the hard drive to the SATA connector on the motherboard.

    The other cable is energy:

    http://www.itpartsdirect.com/STARTech-15-24cm-4-pin-Molex-to-SATA-power-cable-adaptor.html

    It connects the hard drive to the PSU.

    You can also buy a combo like this cable:

    http://www.Amazon.co.UK/DP/B00064GBT4/?tag=hydra0b-21&hvadid=9550951989&ref=asc_df_B00064GBT4

    All you have to do is to connect the hard drive and that's it. Make sure that the main drive with the operating system is connected to the primary SATA connector (I think there are the numbers 1, 2, 3...)

  • I'm not able to install both on the same PC LabVIEW applications. I have uninstall the first application in order to install the second. Is there a way to avoid this?

    I wrote two LabVIEW applications. The first acquires data from three different devices, displays the data and writes it to a file. The second application reads the data and displays it on the screen.

    Can I install the first application and run it, but I can only install the second application if I uninstall the first application.

    Any ideas as to why this is happening?

    You install applications by using a Setup program created with the application builder to LV?

    What LV version do you use?

    You have a dedicated for each installer build script, or do you still want to change the settings of a single build script (which would be a reason for this behavior!)?

    hope this helps,

    Norbert
