Need satellite A10 - spec hard drive

Hello

I replace my hard drive on my A10. Anyone know is hard ATA or installed or SATA disk? What is the difference between them? And can anyone suggest what is the best choice, I try to buy something between 40GB - 80GB. I am based in the United Kingdom.
A good site to recommend?

Many thanks Tony

I found the tracking info:
-Improved interface IDE (ATA-5)

I think that there should be no problem if you use the 40 GB HARD drive with your Satellite A10.

  • Satellite A10 S213 hard drive replacement

    My Satellite A10 S213 is equipped with a MK4021GAS HDD2182 B ZE01 S (40 GB) hard drive. The disc is more often sounds strange and strong although it works well.
    But it will certainly not go long.
    I would like to replace the hard drive with something compatible and if possible with more capacity. About 100 GB would be perfect.
    So my question is:
    * Replace HARD MK4021GAS HDD2182 B ZE01 S disk with more capacity there is for the Satellite A10 S213? *
    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    I guess that your laptop supports the IDE HDD controller.
    Eventually the media controller IDE HDD only 28 bit LBA which allows you to use max 120 GB HDD.

    I think you could install a larger HARD drive.

  • Satellite A200 PSAF6A - HARD drive is not recognized. No recovery of product

    The drive HARD in my Toshiba Satellite A200 PSAF6A-0US01N is not recognized in the machine or any other computer, so I can't run any windows/toshiba repair.

    I know that readers have a factory reset hidden on the disc and press 0 to the power upward, but with the unreadable disk, how can I repair my installation of Windows Vista?

    Hello

    If the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS or other laptops, then I would say that your HARD drive is defective.
    In this case, you need to replace the HARD drive.
    In this case, you will not be able to start the recovery procedure from the HARD drive because it works badly as he has already said

    Are you from the Australia? If you need a recovery disk, I recommend contacting the local Toshiba ASP to get this drive

  • Satellite 1805-S253: HARD drive which is supported?

    I had a Satellite 1805-S253 (year 2002), I need to replace the hard drive (the original is 15 GB). I want to put it on a 80 GB HD. I couldn't find any information on Toshiba Help Desk.
    Any body please tell me if this is possible.
    Thank you.

    The 1805-S253 Sat is a laptop to US for the American market.
    Satellite 1800 series is the same, and must support the same hardware specifications.

    It seems that you might be able to use 40 GB but if you want to use 80 GB you should test if before.

  • Satellite L500-246 - HARD drive not found in BIOS

    Good afternoon

    My problem is that I have a Toshiba L500 - 246 to oblivion, put a password on Windows 7 and now, don't remember.

    I decided to start over and delete the entire computer. I clean the fan, I put thermal paste to the processor and the graphics card and decided to delete all partitions and create one.
    Want to boot from the DVD, I went into the BIOS to change the BOOT boot, and on the first screen, I get the following message: "HDD / SSD not installed '." I changed the settings in BIOS, but still the same.

    When I enter the Windows 7 DVD, you read me well until the window that says he needs the control disk, and in this window, I don't see any disk. I tried with two SATA drives, and I get the same message.

    Put his ear on the hard disk drive to start the laptop computer is the sound characteristic of light, but still do not leave anything in the BIOS.

    Now, enter in the browser to find the driver, I get the following:

    A X startup disk: 30 MB of capacity

    The USB flash drive appears as drive me C:

    And finally, I get the CD in D drive:

    Why could this be?
    Why do I get the USB as a C drive?

    Thanks and greetings

    Your ad is really confusing.

    First, it would be useful to know if the SSD or HARD disk drive is listed in the BIOS (BIOS first page)
    If his list, the HARD drive is OK and follow along you with the installation of the system
    If it is NOT listed, you need to replace the HARD drive

    Lets assume, the HARD drive is OK and you have started the installation.
    During the installation of Windows, you will be asked to add the SATA controller.

    You will find on the page of the Toshiba UE driver the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver
    This driver contains the SATA files that you add during the installation of Windows.

    Hope this helps

  • Satellite P10 804: HARD drive question SMART WARNING

    SMART: Disk failure is imminent - backup and replace the HARD drive - press F1 to continue

    Not the wording, although more or less correct.

    It started 3 days ago. Basic research online suggests that SMART warning system is not always correct.

    1 is there any software which will check the disk and correct some errors?

    2. If I need to replace the HARD drive, what are the specifications, it can be replaced by what?

    3. What is the largest size of concert, it may take?

    4. What is the process after the replacement using the restore CD?

    Thanks in advance.

    What do I need install the second hard drive HP PAVILION: p6633w?

    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 need to format the hard drive but don't have the windows vista disc to reinstall, but have had the key code that vista was preinstalled do I have to buy a new drive for vista

    I need to format the hard drive but don't have the windows vista disc to reinstall, but have had the key code that vista was preinstalled do I have to buy a new drive for vista

    Hello

    How to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  • I need to replace my hard drive in my Samsung laptop, I have windows 7

    I need to replace my hard drive in my Samsung laptop, I have windows 7. I want to reinstall it on the new hard drive running on linux but on install windows 7 on a virtual hard drive, how can I transfer the activation code

    In other words, you can't.

    Assuming that your edition of Windows 7 is the one that supports the transfer of a virtual machine (i.e. the upscale home and more)...

    You will need to do a clean install of the virtual machine, using the retail media and the key of the COA sticker.

    You may need to activate by phone.

    Note that Samsung have historically refused to provide any form of media except through a factory install. This means that it is almost impossible to install the original media for anything except the original disk, using the recovery partition.
