• Portege R200 - how to replace the HARD drive

  Fundamental questions about the Toshiba Portege R200 (purchased model birthday Thailand August 2005) are:
  (1) Please provide instructions to remove the hard drive (non-functional) (illustrations if possible)
  (2) model has enough space inside for hard drive 2.5 inch? (Impossible to locate 1.8 inches and below, to get the results of [expensive] calls to Toshiba - of interest only)

  Background:
  (1) while 3 years warranty in force I trecked (expensive) of Malaysia in Bangok (where to buy) at the headquarters of Toshiba (if you know Bangkok taxi drivers, you'll know what a test or going around in circles and the nonsense in the fire that was)... Toshiba agreed HD vibrating but reported would take 3 to 10 weeks to get the HD replacement (!?)
  (2) I was a few weeks later to the r - u (to tie)... They told me they couldn't help; I "should contact my provider...". This is an Asian model, in Europe, we cannot... etc etc.
  (3) a week later the HD has no
  (4) I contacted Toshiba but they told me the warranty expired 7 days before...
  (5) since this time I phoned and was put on hold for Toshiba in the region of London (several times), Singapore (3 times), Thailand (well, if you know how it goes, say-no more, shots of elbow-boost)...

  I got nowhere. But were invited by the media to bring it to the headquarters of Thai (yet)... It's all right, I'll book a flight and hotel etc now, shouldn't cost all that much more than the computer cost me initially...

  Oh, another thing, not very important: to help out me, I bought a lighter machine at Toys R us... 300 quid... for the love of antiquity I always want to get the old dog to this shiny Silver Anniversary edition slim R200 works again...
  I have a 2.5 "HD available (recond and costs all 9 quid in Brummagem) but before I destroy the old R200 dog by ineptitude... (and lost to carefree annoyance no assistance of Toshiba)... and/or on how to remove HD, please?

  Hello

  I have seen words about your question.
  AFAIK the R200 was equipped with the utility of the HARD disk protection. It is a feature to reduce the risk of damage to the HARD disk.
  Using the acceleration sensor built into the computer drive HARD protection detect vibrations, shocks and sings in the computer and automatically moves the HDD Head somewhere course, in order to reduce the risk of damage.
  But this function does not ensure that the HARD drive will not damage! It reduces the risk of damage!

  However, the HARD drive can be removed very easily.
  At the bottom of the unit, you will find the HARD drive Bay. It s close to the battery (on the left).
  You need to remove two screws to get access to the HARD disk 1.8.

  PS: You can use disks hard only 1.8. The 2.5 hard drives are not compatible.
  I discovered that you can use a TOSHIBA 60GB 4,200 rpm 1.8 HDD HDD1544BZK01

• Satellite P10 804: how to remove the HARD drive?

  I would like to remove the internal hard disk of 60 GB of my satellite P10 804 and replace it with a bigger drive, but cannot find a way to enter in the case of removing the HARD drive.

  Does anyone have the details on how to do?

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the HARD drive must be placed under the optical dirve.
  To remove the HARD drive, first remove the battery and the optical drive, and then follow the steps below:

  1. remove the four black screws that anchor the shield of aluminum covering the HARD drive and pull it out.
  2. gently pull on the HARD drive the front panel of the computer to disconnect the system board, then pull it out.
  3. remove the four silver screws that attach the HARD drive to the HARD disk case.

  But be careful. If you have no experience ask someone with more experience in these replacements.

• Satellite U400 - how to remove the HARD drive password?

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite U400-PSU40E. I put the HARD drive password to test this optoins in BIOS. It woks fine. After that, I remove the HDD password, but when BONES start to start the fist show me black sreen with password and when push enter Os start at startup.

  How to remove this black screen (password disk HARD is clear) before you set a password it is not this black screen?

  Hi iliyan_84,

  You only set the HARD drive password or another password too?
  Normally the HARD drive password can be removed in the BIOS. Therefore, to set a new password and don't enter all the keys. Just press the Enter key to leave the new password disk HARD vacuum box.

  Try to also load default settings in the BIOS and if it doesn't work, you must update the BIOS. You can find the latest version on the official website of Toshiba.

  How can I remove HDD password?

  I'm here with the solution...

  1. the HARD drive password can be removed by using security help.

  2 using the BIOS CONFIGURATION go to the HARD drive password section which should appear as follows:
  HARD drive password
  HARD = built-in HARD disk drive
  HARD drive password mode = USER only
  Registered = user password

  3 tab in the "User password" field and just enter the old password and then a new twice (once to check) as you normally would. If you don't want a password, simply press "enter" twice

  * Or try this: *.

  Enter the BIOS
  arrow to the "Registered" field HARD drive password
  Press
  Enter the existing password and then
  Enter the new password (or leave it empty if you n t want one no matter what password), then
  Meet confirm retype the new password (or leave blank (see above) then)
