Portege 7100 - what size HARD drive it does support?

Hello

my old man (I'm a student, so no money for a new) Portege 7100 (ct) has a small hard drive, so I want to shift to a bigger... but what size HARD drive supports the 7100ct? (and that's a 1.8 "or can I use drives 2.5"?)

thx for any help...

Hello

As far as I know that your unit has standard 2.5 "hard drive. Unfortunately there is no public record of such information. Accurate information, you can get that from accredited service partner or even some HARD drive supplier.
In my opinion, your device must be able to manage with maximum up to 8 or 10 GB HARD drive. For me, we know that some offering it can manipulate the BIOS with special tools and after that BIOS recognize a much larger capacity HARD drive.

Try to pick up some information on the net service partner or call your country. I believe that consultation service is free.

Good bye

  • Portege Z930-145 - unreadable HARD drive - how to restore Windows 8?

    Hello...

    I have buyed my cell phone 6 months ago in an online store.
    A month ago he kissed the sky and was ready for the scrap of hard drive. The support of the seller wrote, that it does not appear a warranty issue.

    Now I can not install the original OS Windows 8, which was preinstalled. Now, I have buyed a new hard drive and in time I use Ubuntu Linux. But I want to use Windows. No, my laptop has a license code.

    What can I do?

    Thank you...

    Sorry for my bad English. I am Spanish.

    Before anything please contact Toshiba service provider in your country and explain the situation. AFAIK you should get the new HARD drive.
    List of service providers that you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/
    If you like it and I hope that they can explain how it works exactly.

    Back to your question: each laptop with pre-installed operating system (factory settings) a small tool which create recovery media. This recovery (DVD or USB) media can be used for the original recovery image installation. I assume that you did not create this recovery media, right?

    Anyway, if you want to have the settings to factory again, but you don t have recovery media you must order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • Portege 3490 - new Seagate hard drive (20gig) - cannot install OS

    I bought a second hard Portege 3490 and the hard drive was broken. I got a 20 GB drive to spare by Seagate (model 92011). I have a USB and PCMCIA cdrom disk. I downloaded disk hard Seagate tools/drivers installation and launch the setup and set up all partitions etc..

    Whenever I try to install windows (XP Pro, 2000 or even 2000 Server), I insert the cd it works through the first step of the loading of the drivers etc, then as soon as it gets to the part where he says is now "setting" start ", where he would normally the first reboot, I get a blue screen error, it is usually the"Inaccessible_Boot_device"error message, but sometimes He won't say. I get the same problem with XP or 2000. The only CD that I have are version OEM of Windows 2000 or XP pro, not specific Toishiba.

    Please can someone let me know what this means? Is the disk hard not compatiable (my dealer says Toshiba it should be), or y at - it problems with the drivers, etc?

    Any help would be appreciated, I was stuck with this for centuries and make me desperate. The machine has no warranty dealer wants £150 just to take a peek. I'll happily pay cash for a working solution.

    Hi Rhodri,

    Check your BIOS settings to make sure that your list of boot device is set correctly and in the right order. Maybe it's that the system tries to re-boot during installation, but the bad device.

  • After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer

    After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).

    [You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) viaControl Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of NIS 2011 (using your product ID, if need be) & reboot. CF. http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    NOTE: Do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate (Norton) until you get a prompt "no update more".

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See page 5-7 for the removal and replacement of the drive hard. It uses the old IDE PATA aka to hard disks that are becoming hard to find. Unfortunately, they are also stupid expensive:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA0AJ17B5685

    The least expensive is located at 4200 RPM 40 gig for $100. Above is a 60 GB 5400 RPM for $120. Frankly the laptop isn't worth much. I doubt that HP still has the recovery disc for him, but we can find a download of a version of Windows XP OEM and you should have a key Code for XP on it.

  • This hard drive is not supported by Dell

    I have Dell PowerEdge 2900 with 5 SAS drives in a massive RAID. All five disks SEAGATE ST373355SS 73 Gb. a few days ago one of those readers start flashing orange LED on the front of the server and also to make the mechanical noise. I do not have the same disks and I was remove the defect of the disc and insert SEAGATE ST3146356SS 146 GB. After installing a new disk in my server Hi flashes green LED power and data reading. This means that everything is ok, works salvation! Then I launch Dell PowerEdge Ver.2.9 diagnosis and saw a status of this discs - this hard drive is not supported by Dell.
    Can someone told me there is a problem or not and how to fix it?

    Dell uses the 'standard' of different sellers drive models, but the manufacturers loading a custom firmware on the Dell drives certified to work seamlessly with Dell controllers. Dell firmware update will not work on non Dell readers, even if it's for the exact model.

  • Can what larger HARD drive I use on Portege 7200ct?

    Ive got a toshiba portege 7200ct, what is the largest hard drive recognizable by the laptop?
    That I get an insert system disk in drive when I put in a 40 GB drive

    Thank you

    Hello

    The Portege 7200ct seems to be an older unit.
    I googled around and found some info on the delivered HARD drive.
    It seems that the laptop came with a 12 GB of HARD drive.

    ARIN, I think 20 GB HARD drive would work and in my opinion the BIOS does not recognize the larger hard drives.
    But "suck it and see '.
    You know it; You can visit a computer store and test drives. Maybe you are a lucky man and run a larger HARD drive (but I don't)

  • HP Envy 17 t: what size usb drive is necessary for the recovery of HP Envy 17 t 10 (64-bit) Windows?

    I just installed my HP Envy and wanted to set up a recovery disk.  The USB key must be less than 32gigs, but the example has not been updated for Windows 10 the instructions say.  It shows a recovery screen for a laptop of Win8 with the source of recovery like 17 concerts.   Is there a way to check the requirements for the front to accept the HP one time recovery option.  I have a new 16 GB USB key and wanted to make sure that it is large enough.

    Also do a backup image to DVD?   If so, how many DVDs?   The laptop is new and I added only Chrome and some minor programs.  My data files are always on an external hard drive.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

    To be honest, I don't know what size will be that these recovery files are because they can vary from the version of Windows to another. They can vary from a model.

    In my opinion, 16 GB is probably not enough.

    DVDs are usually 6 (6x4.7 GB = about 28 GB) but this can vary from one model.

    This possibility of imbedding maybe once, there are other ways that you can save your system indefinitely.

    This is a free option included in all windows (creating system image, it's free as included in Vista from the outset).

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03544793

    However, this option requires (e.g. USB HDD) external HARD disk or DVD. It does not work with USB flash drives.

  • Portege M300 - replacement of HARD drive failed

    Dear all,

    I have a Portege M300 I bought around 3 or 4 years and I am very happy with and without any problems. The laptop came originally with a 60GB and I wanted to upgrade to one with greater capacity, a 160 GB! My laptop is about 1.2 GB of Ram and runs on windows XP SP3.

    I recently bought a Samsung HD-160 (160GB) which should be compatible with my laptop. After installing from scratch and used for about 2 weeks, the computer suddenly stopped. HARD drive stopped spinning and a #0 ERROR came when I tried to restart. There was NO WAY to drive HARD turn again so I contacted Samsung and they replace. The HARD drive has a slight smell of burnt component but very light.
    I replaced the HDD failed with a 2nd replacement and to my disbelief, the SAME THING happened again just after 3 hours of use! I contacted Samsung and once more they will send replace me, with the same type of hard disk. I tried to get explanations of Toshiba and Samsung for why this happens, but so far I have no explanation.
    Without hesitation, I gave my original 60 GB Toshiba drive who was thankfully still my documents and the laptop is happy again touch wood.

    What I am doing wrong? can someone help me please go to the bottom of this so I do not experience the same problem with my 3rd replacement? I wish I had a bigger hard drive on my laptop and I think all of them must be compatible. I buy one that should be compatible with my Portege M300. Both are valued at 5 v

    I have to add to what has just occurred to me now that I have installed all the Toshiba original programs too on my Samsung HDD out of Windows XP, including the utility that protects the disk in case of Vibrations. This could be the problem by any chance? This utility only for Toshiba's brand HARD drive? Any ideas or other suggestions on this issue please?

    Thank you very much for your attention.

    Carmine

    Portege M300 is pretty old laptop and maybe you should be careful with these upgrades.
    According to specification for laptop, your laptop can handle with 100 GB hard drives, but I'm sure you can use 120 GB as well.

    Then maybe you should try to upgrade the disk with 120 GB of HARD drive to see if everything will be OK. I think also 120 GB is enough and you have enough free space for the data backup.
    What do you think about this?

  • Portege M700 - protection of HARD drive problem

    Hello world

    I searched the net for a full day now try to find answers to this.
    Note, I am an accountant and not a computer geek.

    I have a laptop Portege M700. I am updating from Vista to Win7.

    Here's the problem:
    -Initially tried to uninstall Toshiba HDD Protection via Control Panel and got the message error "internal error 2753 setupftc.exe.
    -Then searched the Internet and realized that I had to stop the service first. Note that I does NOT initially stop the service in the Service Manager.
    -Now went in the Service Manager to seek Protection of HARD drive and it is not at all.
    -Returned east to configuration-Toshiba HDD Protection Panel is listed as a program. It will not always uninstall it... the activiates Assistant uninstaller, and after a few seconds, he simply says the same error message is ' «internal error 2753 setupftc.exe»»

    -a search on the internet about this error does no useful result. They underline that the registry cleaner programs. I have NOT installed the registry cleaners.

    - then I went to the registry and created a backup of the registry.
    Then tried all the items containing 'HDD Protection' and started deleting them hoping that it would work.
    Then I tried to uninstall.
    The computer popped up a message stating that a restart is required.
    Tried to restart and got a blue screen.
    Then restared in safemode, reloaded the old registry file and VOILA the computer is back to normal again.

    BUT...
    I can not even uninstall HDD Protection. Get the same bloody error.

    -then downloaded the site Web of TOSHIBA HDD Protection file.
    Try to install this file... I get the same error, i.e. "internal error 2753 setuptfc.exe.

    Ok.. now, I'm ready to give up.

    Really, I didn't wipe my comptuer clean to do a fresh install, because it's such a big hassle. And I'm an accountant, not a computer expert so I don't know what to do for a new installation.
    For the time I've wasted on this already, I probably just to find instructions on the net and then made a complete new installation.

    All the advice to fix it, pleeeeeeeeeeeease! : ??

    Thank you.

    So clean Toshiba HDD protection tool didn't help installation then some registry entries must be screwed to the top.
    Believe me, best you can do is to install the OS to aid installation of HARD - disc of recovery http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm recovery mode or use if you have a.
    After a clean install of Vista, everything will work correctly, and then you can start with the Win7 upgrade procedure.

    Hello

    This does not work because you have installed Win 7 64 bit as you said here:
    > I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, that the laptop came with Win7 Home Premium 32 bit.
    But have you tried also pressing F8-> fix my computer-> drive HARD recovery?
    Try this

    Otherwise, drive HARD recovery does not work because the boot manager has been changed or damaged as a result of the new install of Win 7 and this is why you cannot load HARD drive recovery.
    That is why it s always recommended to create a recovery disc before changing anything on the HARD drive.

    What to tell buddy you need recovery disks. I guess that you have a European model for laptop

    You can order the recovery discs here:
