Maximum HARD drive size in a ThinkCentre M52 8113

Hello.

First of all, I'm sorry that my English is not good.

I need to change my ThinKCentre HARD drive. It comes with a SATA HDD, size: 80Gb and I want to put a larger HARD drive. What is the maximum size allowed by the BIOS? ¿Does, it supports a SATA2 HARD disk?

Thank you

Mauricio

I have 320 GB and 640 GB HARD drive in my 8113 M52 and it works fine.  The site says Intel 945 chipset used in the 8113 provides a SATA II interface.  My HARD drives are also SATA II.

I've updated the BIOS using the download on the Lenovo support site.

  • Maximum hard drive size in the Lenovo 3000 N100

    I have Lenovo 3000 N100

    It came with 100 GB hard drive 5400 RPM

    What is the maximum hard disk that can be used. Is it possible to only 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM?

    Thanks for the answer

    No, I'm this based on the Avenue of the planets. Kidding.

    I base this experience with laptops cheaper and lower quality supporting better hard disks, processor, etc. etc.

    Also the fact that some N100 configurations included a 250 GB SATA 5400 RPM hard drive. No reason why will not work a 7200 RPM drive.

    We invite you to seek advice elsewhere.

  • Envy 17 t J000 - maximum hard drive size and speed

    I'm going to put a 2nd hard drive into the open space in my Envy 17 t-j000.

    The States of Maintenance and Service Guide;

    Hard drives Supports 6.35 cm (2.5 in.) 9.5 mm hard disks (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in) (all hard drives use the same bracket)

    Customer-accessible

    Serial ATA

    Supports the following drives:

    ● 1 TB 5400 RPM, 9.5 mm

    ● 750 GB 5400 RPM 9.5 mm

    ● 500 GB 5400 RPM 9.5 mm and 7.0 mm

    Configurations to two hard disks:

    ● 2 TB: (1 TB 5400 RPM x 2)

    ● 1500GO: (750 GB 5400 RPM x 2)

    This seems to mean that I cannot use a single hard drive 2 TB 2 and cannot use a 7200 RPM drive.

    Is this correct? Bios denominator do not allow more than a drive of 1 TB or the 7200 RPM?

    CouldI partition just the 2nd 2-1 TB disk?

    Or the manual simply means that the standard unit of HP is not provided with larger than these sizes and I could actually use a 2 TB in the Bay of 2nd?

    It's the last... the list says just what HP sale: it does not describe a limitation of the system. However, I do not think that yet, the market offers a 2 TB drive that fits the available space. 2 TB 2.5-inch SATA drives I've seen are too thick. 7200 rpm or hybrid SSD; No problem.

    To add a second drive you'll need a second hard drive enclosure and cable.

  • Maximum hard drive on Portege M200

    I recently bought a Portege M200 on ebay and I think to install a new hard drive of 250 GB IDE.
    Y at - it a maximum size of hard drive for this model?

    Hello

    There is certainly a HARD drive size limitation the point is that the BIOS supports all HARD drive sizes and to be honest I don t think a 25GB HDD would go 0.
    I think it s all just too big

    Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't provide details about the possible HARD drive s max
    I looked a bit of a found that the M200 was equipped with 60 GB HARD drive
    That's why an 80 or maybe a 100 GB HARD disk too should t be a problem

  • DC7700: Size maximum hard drive on HP DC7700?

    I recently upgraded to a 2 TB to 3 TB (after the death of the 2 TB).

    I also upgraded from Win7 for Windows 10 at the same time.

    A week later, the operating system won't start.  When I look at the disc (he jumped into another office) and it the disc seemed to only be formatted in ran 2 TB Seagates SeaTools.  It is passed all tests ok.

    Trying to get Win10 to do a repair of the car.  Failed.  Tried to update (save user settings)... failed.  Tried to wipe & re-install... also failed.

    I was wondering if there is a problem with the maximum size of hard drive in the BIOS.  Running 1.06 (the latest news of 2011?).

    I hope someone could shed some light on this?

    Thank you

    John.

    Hi, John:

    There are actually a few problems...

    1. you must not exceed 2 TB for a boot disk when your PC lacks a UEFI BIOS (which is not the dc7700).

    2. If the HARD drive is a SATA III (6.0 Gbps) by car, there is a very good chance he's one of the symptoms listed in this document from HP below...

    http://h20566.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.Oid=3718645&docid=emr_na-c02711513&lang=en&cc=us

    I had the same thing happen to me (the first question is in the document) on my dc7800 when I installed a new 500 GB WD Caviar Black HDD, SATA III HARD disk.

    W7 has worked for awhile and then the disc has not been recognized more.

    I assumed that the drive is defective, so I RMA'd it, and the other does exactly the same thing.

    I swapped the 500 GB of disk with a disk of 1 TB SATA III coming from my 8200 Elite CMT.  The 8200 Elite came from the factory with 1 TB HARD drive.  1 elite 8200 than TB HARD drive worked perfectly well in my dc7800 and the WD 500 GB drive has worked perfectly well in my 8200 Elite (which has a SATA III HARD disk controller).

    IMO, the unrecognized drive is because of this incompatibility problem described in the document of support.

    For more information on disks larger than 2 TB, read this white paper from HP below.

    You should be able to use the 3 TB, such as a data reader drive if you format to GPT, provided that the incompatibility problem does not exist when it is not be used as a startup disk.

    http://h20566.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.Oid=3459241&docid=emr_na-c02826744&docLocale=en_US

    Curiously, the dc7900 and 8000 Elite PC, I, do not have that issue with discs hard non - HP SATA III - even if their controllers are only SATA II as well.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - new partition after Exchange of HARD drive sizes

    Under 'Vista' with a 120 GB hard drive and needs space.

    Bought a 500 GB SATA drive. I'm afraid that the recovery software will set the new drive with a 50-50 Partition. This is the case or it will allocate 50 GB to E: / and the rest to C: /?

    As the manual States that if I change the size of the partition the recovery software will not re - install in the future?

    Hello

    As I know the Toshiba Recovery disk always allocates 50% disk space for each partition. This means that the 500 GB drive you have two partitions with ~ 250 GB of disk space on each partition.
    If not or you want to change something, you can use the Windows disk management tool:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7101OB0006R01.htm

    I think the manual means that you can use t more the procedure for recovery of HARD disk if you change the size of the partition.
    But with the Toshiba disk recovery you are on the safe side and so you can always restore the factory settings every time. :)

  • Help a fool please ~ deleted partition, lost the hard drive size

    I'll try my best to make this as clear as possible, thank you for your time...

    Received my free copy of windows 7 home Premium

    Wanted a clean install (not an upgrade)

    Back up all the data and the programs that I installed

    During the installation of win 7, I deleted the recovery of the system partition and the 2nd partition of my HARD disk (has been labeled d, came that sort of lenovo factory, had 70 GB size I think)

    I thought that if I deleted the partition of the hard drive space would be added to the 1st partition and it did not

    Have materialized with the installation of win 7, and now I just have never found my C: and the GBs of the 2nd old partition so its as if I lowered my total HARD disk size

    How can I get my C: to have all of the 320 GB? Thanks for any advice!

    You can allocate the unused disk space as follows.

    Start > run > diskmgmt.msc

    Right-click on the Windows partition [should be C] and click on "expand". Extend partition as needed and enjoy.

  • RT - etspc - hard drive (size)

    Hello

    I created my goal of RT on an old computer, which meets the requirements of the document

    http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/tut/p/ID/8239?OpenDocument

    and everything works fine with LabView RT 8.6.

    Now, I'm going to prepare a new goal of RT with LabView RT 8.6 on a new computer. I found already all components required are compatible, but I struggle to find (buy) a hard drive with the size smaller than 126 Go with respect to this document.

    Might be possible to buy a 250 GB HDD and diveded small partitions?

    Or should I take an old hard drive for example from an old computer, which has the corresponding size.

    Thank you

    Hi zial24,

    LV in real-time is not supported RAID.

    We studied actually add RAID in LabVIEW Real-time several times, but the question that comes up every time is that most RAID controllers are owners and require the development of drivers for each of them, otherwise we would have to apply or our own solutions software RAID mainly only the port.  We prefer to work with a single hardware RAID where the RAID controller would manage disks and provide an interface of type SATA usable by the operating system.  Offers of products that we (as in NOR) for PXI include PXI-8260, but this product is a software management JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) and isn't really a "RAID", since there is no fault tolerance (e.g. mirroring, parity, etc...).  Additional offers in the PXI-8162/3/4/5 require an external rack mount configuration, but are still software RAID0 configuration, not better than JBOD RAID except that they take over striping without parity (which is almost impossible to recover from if a disk fails).
