• Portege 7200 - HARD drive upgrade

  I have a Portege 7200. It was just given to me. There is therefore no documentation or manuals.
  I'm interested in upgrading his old 4 GB HARD drive to something more modern. Can someone tell me what could be done to it? I mean - if standard 2.5 "HDD is Ok, is there a limitation of the motherboard/BIOS card as to the maximum size, etc.. ?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  The manual can be downloaded from the Toshiba European page;
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/home.do?service=EU&from=http%3A//www.Toshiba-Europe.com/

  Here, you should go to support downloads & -> user manual for Toshiba.
  In the upload form, you must choose;
  Archive-> Portege Archive-> Portege 7xxx--> Portege 7200

  Maybe you will find some info in the user manual.

  But I want to provide some details too.
  To my knowledge, several versions of BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation. I mean that not every size of HARD drive is supported.
  I have goggled a bit and discovered that the Toshiba MK1214GAP HARD drive can be used with the Portege 7200. It s a 12 GB HARD drive that supports ATA-2/ATA-3/ATA-4 interface.

  Maybe you could test it.

• Portege 4000 hard drive Replacement - what HARD drive is compatible?

  Is it possible to find a replacement for my Portege 4000 HARD drive, because the original becomes very capricious?

  Hi mate

  I think that the Portege 4000 is an elder and in my opinion this laptop supports a 2.5 HARD disk.
  I m not 100% sure, so I recommend you to install a hardware diagnostic tool like Everest Home Edition which would provide all the information on the HARD drive is internal.
  That would help you get a new, compatible HARD drive.

• Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello!

  I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
  I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
  Thank you very much for your help!

  These are the specs on the site
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

  Hey Buddy,

  In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

  Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
  Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
  I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

  are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

  Hello

  I found the info your device comes with 40 GB IDE (ATA - 5) HARD drive. I think in your case, to capacity. High-capacity hard drives are not recognized properly, but I think that with 60 or 80 GB HDD should perhaps be recognized correctly.

  If anyone on this forum can give you accurate information, I recommend you contact your local dealer or service in your country. They are experts upgrade material and they have accurate info on HARD drive upgrade.

  Good luck!

• HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

  I want to put in a 60 GB SSD into the CD slot and want to see how fast it will support as this will be used for the Cache

  Thank you

  The published information is not explicit; He says only: SATA for the expansion Bay while the main hard drive Bay expressly says SATA-III. However, given that this isn't just an optical drive Bay, but also a general 'Bay expansion', it is safe to assume it of on the same SATA bus as main drive and is a SATA III interface.

  Data sheet

  6470b is also supposed to have a slot for a WSSD mSATA, but he is not described in the Manual:

  Manual

  Obviously the WSSD would work better for cache but you can use a 60 gig SSD in an expansion bay for both cache adapter. Even if the connection is SATA-II, it will be much faster to work for a cache of acceleration.

• Max on Portege 3480CT HARD drive capacity?

  What is the hard drive of greater that I can install it on a 3480CT portege? can I write DVD with an external burner (USB 2.0)?

  Hello

  You will be very happy if someone can give you specific info on the maximum capacity of the HARD drive for this model of laptop. This info can give you a few specialist upgrade for laptop, but I think that 20 or 30 GB maybe are no problem.

  I use the external DVD burner too, but not ultra slim but desktop engraver special cardboard. I don t use USB. FireWire is much faster data transfer rates and I use the firewire port on my Satellite.

  replacing the HARD drive is not very difficult on laptops because especially HARD drive is laced at the bottom of the unit and it of only necessary to remove the cover.

  1. turn the computer.
  2. remove the two silver screws that attach the HARD drive cover.
  3. lift the cover of the HARD drive.
  4 enter the plastic on the HARD disk tab to disconnect the system HARD drive, then pull the HARD drive.
  5. place the HARD drive on a flat pack and remove the four screws flat head.
  6. remove the HARD drive bracket.

  That s all :)

• I'll do a clean install on a blank hard drive upgrade but want to keep my Firefox settings - what is the best way to do this?

  I'll do an upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7. I will be installing Windows 7 on a new empty hard drive. I want to keep my bookmarks Firefox and Ad Ons. What is the best way to do it. Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  The best thing for you to do is to make a backup of your Firefox profile. It is a folder that stores bookmarks and Add-ons that you can then add to the reinstalled Firefox on your new operating system.

  Learn you more about the Firefox profile folder, how to backup and restore, here.

• Tecra Z40 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  I bought the Z40 with a 500 GB HARD drive. As a replacement, I bought the next SSD:

  Crucial CT512MX100SSD1 - 500 GB

  Unfortunately I don't have to work. On the BIOS, I see that the system recognizes the ssd. But the boots of system restore, or windows 8.1 detail installs. Are there any known compatibility issues?

  Problems persist if the bios setting is UEFI oder CSM.

  I have upgraded to the latest version of the bios to 3.7, but that did not change the result.

  If the BIOS recognizes the new SSD drive, the drive must be visible to the system.
  May I ask how did you try to install the OS Windows 8.1?
  Have what media you used?

  The Z40 Tecra can't internal ODD (optical disc). This is why I m wondering about the installation procedure

• Computer HP laptop slim 500 GB HARD drive: used for HP laptop HARD drive upgraded to Win 10 Pro with key now stuck after HP Drive Encryption Login

  I bought a portable hard drive used HP for the upgrade of my Lenovo G550 with ugraded CPU with Intel's CORE DUO T9300 2.50 ghz

  (HP hard drive: computer laptop slim drive HARD 500 GB SERIAL ATA DISK DRIVE S/N W627S9NL P/N 756731-001 MFG Seagate Technologies DOM 8 / 2015)

  I was happy to see that the hatd drive had already installed because Windows 7 I had bought already separate legitimate Windows 10 Pro license key for the upgrade. I was able to go online and download the upgrade of Windows 10 and used my purchased license key to activate my updated.

  While doing the installation, there are some HP software that was still on the hard drive. I thought it would be good to have some additional security protocols, so I also installed the WinMagic Securedoc Bootloader v1.2.12 and saved the drive encryption HP with the security issues and password for secondary access.

  10 Windows has been activated and everything was beautiful. But when I restarted the laptop, I put my password for windows and then it goes to this screen of disc HP encryption rises. I put the password and it is accepted - and then the screen turns white... not offshore... jblank TEU with a cursor flashing that doesbn can't react to inputs.

  I tried leaving it for a day or so and still nothing.  There is nothing I can change in the configuration of the BIOS that works so far.

  I also tried Reimage download on USB and re-creation of the sequence of boot, but not good. Even tried a boot drive, but nothing there either. I'll try again.

  I don't know where to go or how to get beyond the screen of HP encryption.  I am pretty good at following directions, I don't know coding, but may do what you suggest to help me fix this problem.

  Can you help me?

  Sorry... I missed the part that you have a license Win10.  I thought you were trying to activate 10 using the OEM HP license and causing problems.

  I do not use HP encryption applications - as having recently completed a career in the InfoSec, I personally focus together on the encryption of the PC to be laughable-, but my guess is that you are basically out of luck.

  If it was my drive, I WIPE the drive of all its content and then again install Win10.  A good product to do i.e. DBan: http://tiptopsecurity.com/how-to-securely-wipe-your-hard-drive-with-dban-erase-your-data-for-good/

  Once your disc is clean, then simply install Win10 on it.

  That said, with a bit of luck, one of the HP EXPERTS will probably come along and tell you how to get around their encryption.

  Good luck
