  • 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.

  • Portege 4000 hard drive replacement

    The hard drive on my portege 4000 has just crashed, can someone please provide guidance on a suitable replacement or upgrade part, where I can buy one and what does this change?

    Hello

    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.

    To remove the HARD drive, follow the steps below:
    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 :)

    PS: I think you can use 10 GB, 20 GB and 30 GB hard drives

  • HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive replacement

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion dv7t-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC, and I had problems with hard disk of the guarantee period. for example I buy in 2010 and had a hard drive replaced in 2011 and 2012. Next time, he failed in 2013 (almost 11 months apart on average).

    The last time it failed, the warranty has expired so I thought to give it a try as employment through fixing/amortization of bad sector seagate software, Toshiba... that came out of Smart Drive Error.

    I use the HARD drive for some time now, but want to be ready for the next round and I don't know that he's going to be gone for good next time.

    Current HARD disk is 640 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive (replaced in 2012). HP 621046-001 manufacturer.

    When replacing, can I use ANY hard drive 640 GB? Can I use a hard drive that is higher than 640 GB? Different RPM?

    Any suggestions on hard drive?

    The recovery discs I had received with the replacement drive did not work properly. I had to use the first game I had created just after I bought the laptop.

    Thank you.

    I think that 160GB 2.5 "SATA III SSD is good for the system.

  • I had my hard drive replaced on my Toshiba lap top and my windows 7 is no longer considered as authentic code has rubbed off the sticker on the base of my lap top. Where can I find it?

    I had my hard drive replaced on my Toshiba lap top and my windows 7 is no longer considered as authentic code has rubbed off the sticker on the base of my lap top. Where can I find it?

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

  • My Mac has crashed. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Suite?

    I bought my Macbook Pro 17 (it's a Mid-2009, running Cougar 10.8.4) used on eBay, and it came with Adobe Master Suite CS5. I pursued a degree in graphic design, and the computer had everything that I needed to start. Now that I'm out of College, I rely heavily on InDesign and Photoshop to get the job done. However, after five years of loyal service without problem, my Mac has crashed and I have never used time Machine. I might have to reinstall Mountain Lion or replace the hard drive. Reinstalling my operating system or hard drive replacement will cause me to lose my Adobe Master Collection of applications? I can save them somehow?

    Any reply and help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your time.

  • Hard drive replacement and warranty question Portege and Tecra models

    Good afternoon

    I'm hoping for a little clarity if a laptop warranty is invalidated if the hard drive is replaced for another title of model/difference. The company that I work buys models Tecra and Portege for these last years, if we decide to buy more large hard disks and get our IT Department install them will be that gap in the agreement of guarantee with Toshiba?

    I talked to Toshiba and they were a little gray in their response. They said that, if you didn't damage the laptop, it should be fine, but if you send it as an unrelated question, with what they can carry out repairs on the laptop if the hard drive does not match the orgional one provided...

    Can somone if this is the case? It seems ridiculous that you would not be able to replace the drive even if bought from an official and used dealer in a corporate environment.

    Kind regards

    Jonsey

    As much as I know RAM and HDD upgrade do not negate the warranty. For many models of laptops, you can find instruction how to do this. It is described in the document of the user s manual or you can find short videos on Toshiba documents (knowledge base).

    Even on this forum in the USER SELF REPLACEMENT section you will find instructions how to replace the hard drives.

    What you can also do is to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and check what they say on this subject.

  • Portege R700-1hd: Questions about HARD drive replacement and passwords

    I have a 1hd R700 with 320 GB HARD drive in stock. I want to upgrade it to 500 GB. This update should be pretty simple, cloning from the old to the new.

    However, I was wondering about the HARD drive password / finger.
    My HARD drive it configured to use a fingerprint/password on boot - I guess that it is involved in the BIOS and the drive itself, but I'm not exactly sure how.
    I think the HARD drive itself is locked, it is not a Windows or BIOS password.

    If I change the HARD drive will still be able to use startup disk HARD password/fingerprint? Are there requirements for material of HARD drive I need to consider before buying new HARD drive? As should be a specific type of HARD drive to work with password disk HARD/fingerprint digital?

    Thank you

    Hi bullerd,

    The HARD drive password is stored on the HARD drive so when you replace the HARD drive you must set a new password of HDD in BIOS. The password is not stored in the BIOS. In addition fingerprints can also be stored on the HARD drive or let s say fingerprint digital software but all of the operating system must be installed after Exchange HARD drive so it s new problem.

    So the two passwords you mentioned are stored on the HARD drive so it s no problem to swap the HARD drive. :)

  • Portege 4000: After HARD drive replacing WinXP installation stopped

    Drive HARD original of my old laptop Portege 4000 just crashed. I went to the local computer store and bought a new Samsung 40 GB HDD (no part no MP0402H) what they recommended. First of all, I have problem to him have partitioned and formatted when it is installed in the computer. Only, I managed to have 25% partitioned only 2 GB?

    Then, when I try to install Win XP Home with the boot floppies that the installation will stop when you insert the disc 6. The new HARD drive is recognized properly by the computer?

    Can I somehow get into the BIOS and change the type of HARD drive?

    Hello

    Stand by. AFAIK the unit has just two (1/2 and 2/2) recovery CD and just sold in Switzerland has several recovery disks (three languages).

    Can you please be more specific about this? At the beginning I have will be just understood what you are trying to do.

  • Portege R500 - HARD drive failure

    I am just a HARD disk failure in my Portege R500.

    It will not recover from the recovery for all disk options seem to point to a new HARD drive. Is this something that needs connection factory? How to replace (160GB)? Is there an option of a SSD instead? I remember it was talking about

    Adrian Lucas (UK)

    Hello!

    You can use each SATA HDD, because there is no capacity limit. So you can buy the biggest HDD 2.5 and I think that it s a 500 GB.

    You can use the product for your new HARD disk recovery disk and you will then have the factory with all the drivers settings and tools of Toshiba.

    I put t know if its possible to use an SSD, but I think that it s better to use the same technology has been integrated. So it s sure that you have no problem with your new drive.

    Bye!
