No option to RAID in the BIOS Y400

I was on a trip of the week long activation iRST attempt on my brand-new Y400, demoted to Win7.

Finally, I got Windows installed in mode UEFI, GPT formatted HARD disc, but seems that I need to enable RAID in order to use my 16 GB SSD (I paid extra for!) like a record of hidden through TSRI.

In the BIOS, I have only two options:

AHCI

Compatible

Its currently on AHCI. I see no place to RAID. Why is this? TSRI worked very well with Win8 preinstalled. Why can't activate it now?

In new research, I saw people having to "unlock" their BIOS? Is it not an official option and legitimate? Should I Flash my BIOS with a modded one?

I looked on the page software and drivers Y400, but don't see a BIOS update.

Any help GREATLY appreciated!

* EDIT: To clarify, in the technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology program, I don't have an option to accelerate like I did in Windows 8. If I understand correctly, this requirement RAID is enabled. Is this fair?

  • No option of virtualization in the BIOS with the Portege R500

    Hello

    Thought I'd post a new thread as the old man seems to be dead...

    I just want to know if someone has been able to use an extensions of virtualization Portege R500 processor, Linux, Windows or any other OS. I guess that this will become a requirement of mainstream with windows 7 now out.

    If you have been able to use it, could you please put your laptop model correct (it should be on a sticker on the bottom)

    This was my original post, showing that the CPU must support her:

    I HAV a Portege R500 (or a model equivalent, bought the Japan), v BIOS 1.60 and everytime I try to use applications that supports virtualization extensions, I can't. I use linux as my OS, and he tells me that the virtualization extensions have been disabled by the BIOS.

    However, I can't find an option for this in the BIOS! R500 manual (form available from the toshiba support area), there should be an option, just after "core multi processing", I can see:

    Virtualization technology
    Sets of virtualization technologies enable or disable the Intel Virtualization
    Technology installed in the processor.
    Virtualization technology Intel is the technique that allows a machine to
    operated under the name of multiple virtual machines.
    Virtualization technology is compatible with some models.
    The disabled command does not use the Intel Virtualization
    Technology.
    The use of Intel Virtualization Technology Enabled command.
    Virtualization technology allows.
    Activated
    Disables (default) virtualization technology.
    People with disabilities

    But it isn't here!

    In addition, I see that virtualization is supported by the processor - the 'vmx' flag is present. The processor is model U7600, it should be supported. You can see from the Intel Web site:

    http://processorfinder.Intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SLV3W

    Anyone know if it is available through he windows BIOS app (although it is not documented in the manual)? Anyone know if it is possible to contact Toshiba and ask them?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Are you sure there is NO virtualization option in the BIOS?
    Have you checked all the pages?

    I found your other thread on the clearing of password and you said this doesn t work, but maybe it works you need to check the VT option yet!

    More as you say, the processor must support the VT to VT option in the BIOS the Intel Core 2 Duo processor ULV U7600 support VT

    As far as I know there are also a few sets of cell phones where the VT option is not available in the BIOS, but if the processor takes in charge the VT VT is enabled by default as well as the VT option is not present in the BIOS.

  • Desktop computer HP P6813w there a RAID option for drives in the BIOS?

    Hello

    Looking to buy one of these HP p6813w.

    I was wondering if the BIOS supports RAID 2 discs.

    One-piece

    Hi one-piece,.

    Boot in the bios (F10 setup) and get off at the fall of peak.  Look at the setting for the sata controller mode and see if you have an option to select RAID.  I do not think that the motherboard in the P6813w RAID capacity according to the information I've seen made available by HP.

    If you really want to RAID, then you could buy a RAID PCI card - E to support two data disks.

  • Portege S100: How to change the RAID in the BIOS

    Change the BIOS setting for Portege S100 of JBOD to RAID0, I hit space on Exectute creation and enter the key of type string in the manual, and press "enter".
    Settings and then return to existing arrangements and not the new RAID0 configuration setting that I selected.

    I stayed in this part of the day / night looking at different positions, but I don't see anything wrong with the data entered.

    This is the same as that recorded in this link: -.
    [How to change the RAID configuration | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB6901K60006R01.htm]

    I'm now at the end of my home, I just wanted to install new HDD WD and new installation of XP Pro, is - it too much to ask?

    Maybe it s a silly question but; have you installed the second HDD to the Ultra Slim Bay?
    The RAID did feature is available when a second HDDD is installed in Ultra Slim Bay.

    If the second HDD was inserted and then change the RAID in the Windows operating system.
    There should be a Toshiba RAID Console.
    You can use this console to create or manage a RAID array.

    To start the utility, click Start, point to all programs, point to Toshiba, RIAD-tap and click RAID console.
    It of possible to change the RAID1 (mirroring) of a configuration non-RAID (default).

    But note; When RAID1 is set, you cannot change your settings unless you completely restore your preinstalled software.

  • VT options not available in the BIOS

    I have a (2342-CTO) T430 with an i7 processor - 3520M I bought in early 2013, and I loaded Virtualbox with a device. When I ran the device, it gave me an error something to the effect that virtualization is not available on my machine.

    Afterwards, I went into the BIOS and found the settings for the dynamics of frequency and hyperthreading for the CPU, but I saw no entry for virtualization - any recommendations on where to find or how to activate this feature?

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    Take a look under the Security tab in the BIOS. "Virtualization Intel (R) technology" is currently enabled or disabled?

    Kind regards.

  • Multi option - Processing Core in the BIOS

    Hi guys,.

    I had questions about my r61e running Cubase 5 (creates audio glitches & etc.)-it seems that if I disable multi-process in Cubase it help & he suggested I should do the same thing in the BIOS. My question is - is this negative impact on my system somehow? If I turn off multi-processing in the BIOS I lose power, so to speak? I'm not really sure of the details... Thanks a lot for your help.

  • LSI Logic SCSI Ultra320 RAID Firmware and the BIOS utility. Cannot make the diskettes.

I runs the file, but when it tells me to put a floppy disk in the A: drive and I confirm, the window closes and the diskette is not made. Looks like the copy in the file program is corrupted.

  • Portege A100 PPA10A - update the BIOS to boot from a USB device

    Hello

    I have an old Portege A100, model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find this model on any Web site of Toshiba, closest I've seen is the "PPA10A - 0002 L'.

    I am wanting to know if there is a BIOS update that will allow me to boot from a USB device.

    The question I have is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cannot read disks.
    This network PXE boot, but I'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutely no idea what to do here.

    Any help would be great,

    Thank you

    Hello

    Portege A100 seems to be developed solely for the Australian market.
    As you say it is a model number Portege A100 PPA10A - 0002L listed on the Australian page of Toshiba Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A
    So in my opinion, the BIOS should work too.

    Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add boot options.

    Usually the BIOS supports booting from CD/DVD drive, drive HARD, LAN and USB FDD.
    It should be possible to boot from a boot disk using a USB FDD drive.
    I doubt you'd be able to boot from USB WEIRD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.

  • Satellite L30-134 PSL33 - Question about the version of the BIOS and the type of DVD writer

    Hello!

    I bought a Toshiba L30-134 PSL33 the week last in Hungary. I recorded to Toshiba international warranty, so I saw that my cell was made the 19.10.2006.
    My friend bought the same laptop (Toshiba L30-134 PSL33) too (also in Hungary), two weeks ago. His machine was made on 19.12.2006.
    It's already funny, but that's not all.
    My laptop has a series number starts with X, and the machine of my friends has this starting with Z. That's ok.
    But here it is...
    I have a BIOS version of 1.3 and my friend has a BIOS version of 1.9! 0.6 gap within two months? Why?
    The other thing. I have a DVD burner called Mat * a UJ - 841 S and my friend has a LG 4082. Once again: why?
    If you are looking for Toshiba BIOS update you don't find anything! It is very interesting. There must be some updates to the BIOS, because I read here to another topis that someone has a BIOS version of 1.4. But there are 1.9 too.
    Each book was brand new when we bought.
    Any idea?
    Let me know when you bought your laptop, what BIOS version it has, and what kind of DVD player there.
    I'm wainting for the answers, because I'm really interested!

    Thank you
    Marcell

    Hey Arnaud!

    I m from Hungary, too, but I think I should speak English on this forum :) So here is my notebook, I ve bought on 24.12.06. :

    Type: L30 - 134 PSL33E
    The machine was made on: 19.12.06
    Series: starts with Z
    DVD player: LG
    BIOS version: 1.9

    You should t be nervous on the drive, the carpet * a Panasonic, and I think that s as good as LG. Why are they different? I put t know, maybe Toshiba was such at the time. In the specifications I didn't seen anything on the drive type, so I think that s not relevant. I t has not found another version of BIOS for this model, so I t understand too why and what are the differences between the versions. But if you n t have a problem with your machine, you do not need to change the BIOS. This isn't a PC, if you haven t many options to change in the BIOS.
    If you want to discuss on the laptop on the Hungarian language, I recommend the Toshiba section on www.prohardver.hu.

    Best regards

  • Satellite X 200-how to find the configuration of the BIOS for Intel Matrix Storage?

    Hello world

    I'm ready to activate the feature Matrix Storage on my Satellite X 200 - 24 X. The problem is that I can't find any relevant option in the BIOS setup...
    Thank you!

    Hello

    Intel Storage Manager is a pilot and not an option in the BIOS. The only option you have in the BIOS is the mode of access to the HARD drive. There you can change between AHCI and Compatible.

    For AHCI mode which is faster, you need Intel Storage Manager driver. For the Compatible mode, you n t need additional drivers.

    Want to know how to install Storage Manager? Just use the forum search, you will find hundreds of results. ;)

  • Satellite L875D: There is possibility to enable virtualization in the BIOS?

    Hello

    I want to buy Toshiba L875D-S73.

    I know supports CPU AMD - V required for the performance of like Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization.
    But I don't hear anything about BIOS.

    Is - this ability to enable virtualization in the BIOS?
    Maybe you know?

    Unfortunately I do not have this model laptop but I guess there is no option for virtualization in the BIOS. If the processor supports the it, it must be enabled by default.

    I m not sure but I think that laptops equipped with platform AMD do not support virtualization technology, so in my opinion, you should buy model with no D in the name. All models with D have the AMD platform.

    Contact your local dealer and ick information on other models of laptops.

  • Satellite L - How do I reset the BIOS?

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to access the greyed zones in the BIOS, you have a newspaper as 'Master' or 'Controller' first? or something?

    And nobody knows how to reset the BIOS, so I can remove the password and how to access the BIOS supervisor not only a user?

    See you soon

    Hello

    I think the gray options BIOS means you are not logged in as supervisor. You must enter the supervisor password, and then you should be able to change these options.

    And the BIOS reset is only possible from an authorized service. Ask a technician for this. They can help you!

    I run vmware player on a Toshiba Tecra A8 with Intel Core.
    When you start vmware, he tells me, that my CPU (CoreDuo2 7200) is capable of VT, but this option is disabled in the BIOS.
    Can I change this setting?

    Some versions of the BIOS supports this option but I m do not know if this is possible on the Tecra A8.
    Simply access the BIOS and check the unique pages. If you find this option, you can try to activate. Otherwise it s is not possible.

  • Re: How to enter the BIOS on Satellite C50 - B

    Hi guys!

    You just purchased Toshiba C50 - B, it's * laptop computer test I've ever seen, not recommend to anyone, avoid this brand at all the... 15 days, I tried to get into AD BIOS anything yet this completely useless, not even no CD in there!

    I assume that you are not informed sufficiently how it all works and your opinion is, unfortunately, based on low level of information about Win8/Win8.1.

    As a first step, you must perform a complete shutdown of Windows. How to do this you can read in http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm

    After that restart your machine and press F12 to get into the boot menu.
    Here you can choose the boot device and also find option settings to enter the BIOS settings.
