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.

Welcome them

  • What HARD drive is compatible with HP 120W Advanced Docking station (NZ222AA)

    Please tell me that HARD drive is compatible with the Bay of integrated upgrade HP 120W Advanced Docking Station (NZ222AA) SATA... I can't find the info nor in the manual the user, or from the HP site. Thanks in advance.

    While neither station can be upgraded, both have a Bay of upgrade which allows you to install an additional hard drive. If you choose to install the additional drive, you will add additional gigabytes to your current mobile storage space. However, if you choose to take advantage of the extra space, a standard hard drive does not fit into the Bay to upgrade. HP offers a hard drive 500 GB, specially designed for the upgrade on the 120W and the 230W Bay; You must order the HDD upgraded through HP.

  • Portege 4000 - upgrade RAM & graphic card driver installation

    I'm having some trouble with my Portege 4000 for the moment. I installed XP on a disk, but will no longer have that I have 256 MB of RAM...

    -Have you tried 2 manufacturers but the PC133 512 is not compatible. However, my system has an IBM of PC100 256 chip, which was bought early last year, after much trial and error, and I wonder now if the motherboard will be more suited to the PC100 and PC133 non?

    -Consider the options alternative to XP, 98SE or 2000 because they are lighter operating systems. I can put it on a spare drive (test). Is it possible to set up a partition for recovery CD Rom (which has 98SE) on this subject and have little space left over to install another Linux operating system or its Manager partition crushes everything?

    -J' put another post for .exe drivers related to the display/vga for 98SE and 2000.

    -Just for the record, not all Linux distributions seem to go back on the size of the screen, so it takes some work...

    Thanks much for any help.

    The protégé 4000 is compatible with the PC133 modules! AFAIK, you can upgrade RAM of this notebook 1 GB (1024 MB) and you can use these modules;
    PC133 512 MB (PA3108U - 1 M 51)
    PC133 256 MB (PA3086U - 1 M 25)
    PC133 128 MB (PA3085U - 1 M 12)

    You can create partitions on the HARD drive using a 3rd party like Partition Magic 8 tool. I use this tool and it's really nice.
    After you create 2 or three partitions on the HARD disk, you could install different OS (operating systems).

  • Portege 4000 - how to install the display driver for XP?

    Hi-

    I did a clean install of XP Portege 4000. The system has been previously default 98SE.

    Noticed that there is a yellow exclamation point in other devices about the video controller (VGA compatible). I downloaded the display on the Toshiba site driver (if it is the right thing?), but can't seem to install. There is no setup.exe to help me.

    My XP screen covers only 3/4 or more of the screen total, so that something is wrong somewhere...

    Hello

    No, Toshiba don't support Linux or Ubuntu on the Portege 4000 and you can t find drivers for it on the Toshiba page. Only Windows drivers are available.

    I m not an expert in Linux, but as far as I know you don t need additional graphic driver for Ubuntu. You should only change the resolution of the screen or something in the settings of the screen. I had the same problem on the first time I used Linux and I could solve it without additional driver but I put t know how I did it :(

    Good bye

  • Portege M100 - Dvd drive IDE 1 error

    I tried to replace the drive cdrw/dvd combo to a dvd rw drive, but loading it says error IDE 1, but its strange, that you cannot start out of him, but in xp you can use.

    I'm sure its something to do with the Bios.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Thank you

    > I tried to swap the drive cdrw/dvd combo to a dvd rw drive, loading it said error IDE 1, but its strange, that you cannot start out of him, but in xp you can use.

    I think you used a CD/DVD player with bad parameters master/slave/c-salt.
    If the reader doesn t compatible with the right settings, BIOS will not recognize the IDE #1 error and it will appear as in your case

    You should know that not all drives are compatible. I'm not quite sure if your user manual contains the disks info picked up and compatible, but you could check it m

    Otherwise, I would recommend contacting the partner of service authorized in your country for a list of compatible readers or to order a good.

    See you soon

  • Can I use 80 GB in Portege 4000?

    I'm tired of searching for a hard drive for my computer laptop Toshiba Portege 4000 (PIII). The only ones available come from 80 GB. Is there a way I can fit this size of hard drive in my laptop? I need to know this before as I have buy a.

    Very difficult to say if the BIOS will recognize that the new inserted 80 GB of HARD drive.
    As far as I know that the Portege 4000 has been delivered with the 20 GB HARD drive.

    Hmm, I think the 80 GB could works but he can't say for sure!
    You will need to test because the Toshiba does not have any official information on the compatible HARD drive sizes.

    What you need is a HARD drive that supports an IDE interface. You could buy one with ATA5 (U - DMA 5 100 Mbps), but it will only work to 66 MB/s due to the limitation of HARD disk controller.
