Need new HDD for Satellite A10

Hello.

As my A10 satellite hard drive had a lot of problems lately, I bought a new drive. However, when I turn on the labtop, it freezes just on the screen "select boot device". I'm not still able to enter the BIOS. I can hear the disc upward rotation, but there is no reading of it.

The old drive was a 4200 RPM, 2 ATA-100 MB disk Toshiba while the new is a Seagate Momentus 5400.2 with 5400 RPM / MN and 8 MB cache. Anyone aware of the A10 is having problems with the new disks, or someone has a suggestion for what I should try?

Thank you in advance.

Hello

How have you tried to get into the BIOS?
Have you tried to install the OS on the new HARD drive?

I think that the laptop does not freeze, but the BIOS can not find a boot device.
You must insert the Toshiba Recovery CD and must try to boot from this CD.
If you cannot select the STRANGE as boot device in the BIOS you could simply press the C button immediately after you start the laptop.
This option allows booting from the CD/DVD drive.

  • Need new HDD for Satellite L300-1BD

    Hey,.

    my laptop Toshiba Satellite HARD drive no longer works.
    So I'm going to buy a new one today, but what one do need me? As the number of inches? And what is a SATA connection or something?

    Could someone please tell me what I watch when I buy a new HARD drive for this laptop

    Hello Vivendi

    One thing is strange for me: I guess your laptop L300 is fairly new and I do not understand why you want to buy a new HARD drive. Warranty is still valid?

    Please check. If the warranty is still valid contact nearest authorized maintainer, and I am sure that you will get replacement free of charge.

    If you want to buy it too, I assume you want to replace one. Then, remove the old HDD and on the white label, you will find all the necessary information on the HARD drive.
    In any case, it takes 2.5 SATA HDD.

  • Need new HDD for Satellite A110-178

    Hello people,

    Anyone know where I can order/buy a new internal hard drive for my laptop cause my hard drive died.

    Greetz

    Hi friend

    of course, the internet offers a wide range of hard disk drives. You have to do is check google and type something like "2.5 inches HDD SATA" or «SATA HDD laptop»

    For some reason, you can check for example ebay and search there for SATA hard drive, which is integrated in laptops (the height of the car shouldn´t be more than 9.5 mm).
    It s just important that you're looking for SATA and IDE not. Any other topic doesn´t. Oh, I'm not sure what the maximum size of HDD machine can take, toshiba says something about 120GB, but you will have to prove by yourself if the machine may take longer.

    Thank you

    You can buy new HARD drive in every store of the computer. What you need is 2.5 "SATA HDD.
    In my opinion you should now reflect on the upgrade and buy SSD that will offer more performance and make your laptop run much faster than before.

  • Need new BIOS for Satellite A30 - 404 to upgrade to a larger HARD drive

    I want to install a new (larger) disk on my Satellite A30-404.
    He says have Bios version 1.80.
    I probably need more recent (since it was purchased in 2003).

    Y at - it a newer version for this machine?

    Hello

    Latest BIOS version can be found on the European driver Toshiba page.
    Currently, the version of the BIOS 1.80 is available and published for the Satellite A30 PSA30E.

    By the way; a more recent BIOS will not help to use a bigger HDD!
    The point is that your laptop supports the Enhanced IDE (ATA-5).
    Since the ATA-5 interface supports the 28-bit LBA addresses you should be possible to use Max 128 GB OF HARD DRIVE. I think that this is the maximum size, which is possible.

  • Need LCD screen for Satellite A10 S811

    My screen laptop for some reason any (must have hit somewhere) does not work properly.
    So I have to replace because I need my laptop for my work and I have a lot of files that I need.

    My laptop is 4-5 years so I don't want to pay a whole fortune to replace my LCD screen
    This is the A of Toshiba Satellite series with screen 15 inches.

    For the month next (until 27 August), I'd be in Paris because of some jobs and I need repair my laptop so that I can work.

    If anyone knows anything, where I can get a screen at a reasonable price, please respond as soon as possible.

    Please, any help is needed... It s quite urgent.
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Andreas

    As you probably know the LCD and mobile motherboards is one of the most expensive parts. The new parts cost a small fortune
    I studied a bit on the net and found this site with 15 compatible screens for a Sat A10.

    The new view costs about $ 325... so it s really not a cheap part!

  • Need new battery for Satellite Pro U200-182

    Hello

    I m needing help on the purchase of new battery for Toshiba Satellite Pro U200 - 182
    No model origin. what I found on old battrey is PA3356U - 3BRS with parameters: DC10.8V - 4700mAh

    When I tried searching on the web I found that this trick
    http://smart-parts.NET/bsearch.php?brand=Toshiba&name=satellite%20PRO&SER ie = U200% 20Black & model = U200-182

    I would like to ask if I can buy it (if this battery will be compatible) and also if its possible to buy the battery longer "life."

    Thank you for the help

    I found the info that for your laptop model there are two types of battery only:
    PA3356U-3BAS
    PA3356U-3BRS

    So if you use Google and put these numbers, you should be able to find an online store where you can buy these compatible batteries.
    By the way: link you posted is OK and I don't see the reason why you shouldn't order of it. It is listed as compatible.

    To extend the life, you need battery with more cells and ability, but it is unfortunately not available for your laptop model.

  • Need new screen for Satellite A85: laptop that has the same screen 15 ''?

    Looking for a new screen for this laptop and I was wondering what laptops use the same screen or the screen that fits?

    Fit the toshiba a30 screen? or should it be a 15 xga screen? There is a standard 30? will also be an adjustment of lcd a60? and if it would be an a60 housing also correspond to the screen? help please?

    required screen really, just need standard tft works ok?

    Hello

    Satellite A85 is unknown to me but to my knowledge the A30 has been delivered in different views:
    15.0 inch, screen SXGA 1400 × 1050 pixels.
    15.0 inch XGA, 1024 × 768 screen pixels

    I think that this view could be compatible with the A85, but maybe the display resolution is a little different.

    No help on the motherboard to get which is compatible and it would actually help?

    Thank you.

    Hi nessie

    It is not easy to find the new motherboard and believe me it's quite expensive, you can buy the new notebook.

    What you can do is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider first. Explain the situation and ask if they can help you with this. They are also able to get the new motherboard for you.
