New hard drive IBM T61p

Hello I want to upgrade my hard drive, I have a Hitachi 7200 RPM 160 GB.

I wanted to get a 500 GB Seagate Momentus 7200 RPM... But it is hard to find here.

And in the way that I found a 320 Hitachi 7200 RPM, FRU T 42, 1571

 

I liked the idea of trying a Seagate, but anyway I found on the internet that Hitachi is faster... Is this true? What about the Samsung ones?

Any brand is compatible with the T61p?

Can I like that Hitachi and also a FRU has, but I can't find anywhere this buffer size, and that can make a difference.

  • HDD problem IBM Thinkpad T42. I can't install NEW Hard Drive and NEW OEM Windows XP?

    Hi all

    When I turn on the notebook Windows XP starts up and everything is loaded. But after 5 or 10 minutes, the response is very slow. If I click on any window and try to open any folder, or open internet explore it takes about 1 or 2 minutes to respond. I tried several ways to scan disk and Defrag, but still that are of no use. I also tried 'Difficulty automatically File System Errors' and ' will search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors ", but this problem is still there. Even when I stop it takes too long to stop about 15 to 20 minutes.

    When I turn on again NEXT DAY Windows XP starts and everything loads quickly. After 5 or 10 minutes, the response is very slow. This problem occurs for a few days.

    I then used "IBM Rescue and Restore" to load fresh operating system. Still the problem does not get fixed.

    Can you get it someone please let me know if this is problem of hard disk or something else. I'm guessing it's related to the hard drive.

    If it is the drive hard problem how to save (clone) of this old hard drive AGAIN DISK (after buying) HARD.

    If I buy the NEW HARD DRIVE and CD/DVD of NEW OPERATING SYSTEM OEM VERSION it will work? Do existing mother board ALLOW to load a NEW VERSION of OS OEM?

    Thank you

    Contact the manufacturer of your computer, IBM and ask them to send a recovery disk/s XP set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    It is possible, that this new hard drive is not compatybille with this laptop?

    Please help, because it's my boss laptop :(

    P.S. - sorry for peut English

    Hello

    Are you sure that the HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS?
    Seems that the laptop does not support the new drive (100 GB, 7200 RPM).

    Perhaps because of the large size of HARD drive and the fast rotation value.
    I would try to use a 60GB 5400 RPM a 80 GB HARD drive maybe works but it seems that the 100 GB HARD drive is not compatible

  • New hard drive in Inspiron 5000e has failed, NTLDR

    HELLO community,

    I have an Inspiron 5000e (2001) and to replace the old hard drive (IBM Travelmate 10 GB) against a new, a Seagate Ultra ATA (80 GB).

    I partitioned the new drive HARD, C with Fat32 (30 GB), D with NTFS (47 GB).

    Then I had to run Fdisk from a floppy, the computer could identify them.

    On C, I had Windows ME (German version) a success, but the Grafic driver was missing, and I couldn't see D more.

    When I tried to put Windows XP (English version) on D, an error message came during the installation process: "NTLDR is missing". Plant was shut down.  Y at - there anyprogram to put that right on the hard disk during the installation process?

    Also after that, C not more also began.

    What I will do, to bring at least Windows XP on a partition, it is able to securely access internet and normal working office?

    Thanks for any help,

    Jens


  • new hard drive G41, factory restored, now stuck to always start at R & R

    G41 2886-79U with XP Pro.  Hard drive died last year, still under warranty then took to an IBM service center.  They have replaced the hard drive under warranty and gave me a set of R & R and product recovery CD.  Laptop computer R & RL ran OK for about a month.  He started to be right about the time when my warranty has expired, becoming slow example, 45 minutes to start.  Random crashes, most often when closing programs, the error message this program could not write to the hard disk.  Frequency of accident back.

    Abandoned, taken from the hard drive to install a new hard drive.  [Hmmmm, I notice that they in fact did not replace my original with a new drive, this drive warranty-replaced has a sticker saying "Good used State party"].

    Installed the new HD, started using the CD R & R, then followed the six guests R & R factory restore since the product recovery CD.  After the sixth disc, message box saying it needs to restart the PC, you click Yes or no.  There is no direction to remove the CD from the drive, at this point.

    It restarts at the R & R window, with the popup of restore factory warning that the product recovery program is only for the unrecoverable system problems.  This looks at where we started the process of factory restore, there are seven CDs.  Choices here are OK, Cancel, or help.  Clicking OK brings you back at the beginning of the factory restore procedure.  Cancel on your vacuum on the main R & R screen. By clicking on restart here restarts once again to the screen of Rescue and Recovery.

    Now the G41 is stuck, still boots to R R & does not start in XP.

    I pulled the HD and installed temporarily in another PC that has a floppy drive, this allowed me to start with Partition Magic.

    R & R 3 partitions on the new disk as follows:

    1. the label is IBMPSP, Type FAT32, size = 406 MB, used (s) = 290,4 Mb, status = None, Pri/Log = primary.

    2 no label, Type unallocated =, size = Mo 71738,8, used (s) = 0.0 MB, status = None, Pri/Log = primary.

    3 no label, Type unallocated =, size = Mo 4171,3, used (s) = 0.0 MB, status = Active, Pri/Log = primary.

    On this PC, I let him try to boot from the hard drive and got the message "Missing Operating System".

    I put it in the G41, it starts at IBM Rescue and Recovery as before.

    I've searched the web and this forum looking for this same issue, have not found something exactly like this.

    If anybody out there knows how to get a new HD to market, let me know.

    Thank you, Don.  I found the idea on another forum of Lenovo.  So far things are working OK.  The other hard drive will be float-tested as soon as I do not know there is nothing on it that I still need.

    As the professor said, it's just not intuitively obvious to the casual observer.

    A note, when the PC was bought, it came with Norton Antivirus installed, long expired.  After the factory restore, the Nortonware registered with the site of Norton and apparently it has been recognized as a new installation and got the last update.

  • new hard drive, how to reinstall OS x

    I have a new hard drive after a crash of the former. How can I install OSX top?

    You should be able to boot the Mac using recovery Internet if you updated the firmware to enable.

    OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

    If you don't have to update the Firmware to allow it to use the Internet in recovery, you need to use the installation provided with the Mac DVD.

    Either way, you start the Mac.

    Open disk utility and format the drive under OS X Extended journaled.

    Then, quit disk utility and reinstall OS X.

    Who will install the operating system on the Mac (likely Lion).

    You can then improve it to El Capitan.

    If you have a Time Machine backup, you can restore it in recovery from the Internet instead of reinstalling the operating system.

  • New hard drive backup restore

    I installed a new hard drive after backing up my old one (Snow Leopard) on Time Machine. I can't understand how to restore the backup to the new hard drive.

    First install the OS on the new drive.

    During the installation process (or just after, I forget exactly), it will offer you the possibility to configure the machine based on a Time Machine backup. Point it at your TM drive and come back in the morning (it will take a long time).

  • Copy a project and media for the new hard drive

    Greetings,

    I have a very large project stored on an external hard drive and would like to copy the whole thing, including the original media linked to a new hard drive... because I'm afraid that my old one may cease to operate quickly. How can I go on the copy of my project to a new hard disc as well that all sounds, music and video are related?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello.

    You can create a library of transfer in the user interface and move the top project. (It it will copy as you move it to a new drive)

    If you also move the media, it will break the links between the project and the media (audio and video). When you do that, use the command create a link (on the file menu). If you point to the good volume, it should find the media and offer you the ability to link again.

    Good luck.

  • HARD drive failure. You want to transfer the passwords to new HARD drive. If it is located. I don't remember the last time.

    HARD drive wasn't in my other computer. Put in a new HARD drive and transferred the bookmarks (FFox. (++ 16 on both), but do not remember how to transfer my saved passwords. Some people have helped me with this when I rebuilt this PC (the one that I use to send this info) and I remember most of the way and the method, but not well enough to attempt it without some guidance.
    The other PC is a laptop ASUS G50VT - X 5.
