Portege R100 and new hard drive

I think to put in a larger capacity internal hard drive - 40G is now a little bit :(

Does anyone do this? The traps? Any suggestions on compatible drives?

TIA

Hello

As far as I know the old Portege R100 supported a HDD IDE controller.
So you will definitely need an IDE HDD. I think that it s a 1.8 IDE HDD.

I think the HDD IDE controller supports only the 28-bit LBA and it would mean that there would be larger than 120 GB hard drives not recognized.

That's why I choose smaller hard drives.

    I bought a new HARD drive: Samsung HM320JI (320 GB/SATA/5400 RPM / 8 M I)

    I don't understand what you mean with these 60%. 60% of what?

    In my opinion the new HARD drive should work fine with your Satellite A100.
    As Alex has already written fair use facilities for the installation of the OS recovery disk and I think everything should be OK.

    Hi mate,

    you need a disk IDE because only this one fits into your machine (there are new standard SATA with two long hard disk connectors and the IDE from an old 40-pin at the back of the HARD drive)

    The best choice would be a disc toshiba or something of hitachi, since they are very good brands. I say take some readers with 100 or 120 gigabytes of capacity.

  • Satellite Pro 2100 and new hard drive

    Hello

    I saw on another post that L0nestar has installed a Western Digital WD2500BEVE (250 GB, 5400 RPM) in a Pro 2100.
    The question I have is what the interface is SATA or EIDE? The original drive indicates it is a SATA interface, but the WD2500BEVE is an EIDE interface?

    Hope someone can clear this up for me.

    See you soon.

    AFAIK all older models of laptops have hard drives with interface EIDE. Satellite Pro 2100 comes with disk HARD Enhanced IDE (ATA-5).

  • Portege M400 - new HARD drive retains the old HARD drive password?

    I have a Portege M400 and I want to move my current hard drive with a new one.
    My current hard drive is password protected (I know the password).
    My questions are:

    If I switch to a new hard drive, a new retains the old password or not?

    Can I use the old drive with an external enclosure as an external drive, or it is impossible?

    I already tried to delete the password for hard drive with the methods presented on this forum by going into the BIOS, but version 3.8 has no option to remove the HDD password and I think that it is impossible to remove it.

    Please answer only if you have experience in cases like this, I don't want to spend money on the new hard drive and not be able to use as primary.

    Hey Buddy

    Please check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=141590

    You can remove the HDD password (if it s you known) in the BIOS.
    In the field "User password" tab and just enter the old password. If you do want to set the new password, and then press "Enter".

  • Portege Z830 - where can I get the new HARD drive

    Hello

    I have problem with my toshiba portege z830 ultrabook.
    My HARD drive died, and I don't know where I can get the new HARD drive.

    I've got guaranteed but I am forgotten registered my cell phone before when I went for repairs not authorized, because my first problem was with the motherboard.

    This motherboard has been replaced for new ones.
    If my warranty is maybe cancelled.

    Well, that's my problem to another.

    What should I do?
    Please help me. I am available to do anything.

    Hello

    I think that you should first check if your warranty is still valid.
    This can be checked on Toshiba Unitdetails page:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails/

    Where the warranty is valid, get in touch with maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for replacement.

    But as far as I know the Portege Z830 was equipped with an mSATA SSD drive.
    This means that the laptop doesn't support HDD 2.5 common but requires special mSATA SSD drive module.

    In case your warranty is not valid, you will pay for a new mSATA module.
    Replacement should do a service provider authorized Toshiba as well because this replacement is a little tricky on this model of laptop.

  • Portege 3500: Need a new HARD drive

    Hello

    I bought a Portege 3500 and after a few weeks of use, the hard disk or fan (safe) started to make loud noises and now every time I turn on the laptop screens toshiba rises and it happens eventually to a screen I wrote what he said below.

    I read somewhere that this means that my hard drive is over and I have to buy a new hard drive.
    Is this true and if so anyone know where I can get a drive hard because the laptop is old?

    The only one I've seen that is in stock is of about £230 and it's about the same price, I bought the laptop.
    Or is there a solution ive tried going on in all modes but it just restarts and Ive also tried to reinstall the OS using the cd but I can't in the menu option to reinstall XP.

    "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    If your computer stopped responding, restarted unexpectedly, or was automatically closed down to protect your files and folders, select last good known Configuration to return to the most recent settings that worked.

    If a previous startup attempt was interrupted due to a power failure or because the Power or Reset button has been activated, or if you are not sure what caused the problem, choose Start Windows normally.

    Hello

    AFAIK Portege 3500 was equipped with the 40 GB IDE HDD.
    This is why you must use an IDE hard drives (not SATA).

    Now, it would be important to know what max HD size could be compatible;
    If the laptop supports 40 GB I think a 60 GB HARD drive might work too.

    I think that you should just google for some 40 GB, 60 GB hard drives, that supports the IDE!

  • Portege R600 - 13 X - how to reinstall the operating system on the new HARD drive?

    Hello

    I inherited a Portege R600 - 13 X of my colleague, who hit and killed the hard drive. I installed a new hard drive, but you don't have operating system installation diskettes as he said that the computer has not come with any. To make things even more difficult, I believe that the optical drive may not work. My old R500 had a dead optical drive and after I replaced it (he has not yet worked) I was told it is perhaps something to do with the ribbon cable, which piggy back off the coast of the SD card reader, then to the motherboard.

    Anyway, is it possible for me to install Win 7 Professional (I have the original windows key) from a USB flash drive? Or y at - it a specific OS recovery/reinstallation disk that I can download Toshiba?

    Any advice would be very welcome
    Thank you
    NJ

    I have a Portege R600, and he has been a formidable workaholic, although now showing its age with newer software.

    I think these machines came with pre-installed Vista and your friend must have created a set of recovery discs when they got off the machine.

    Toshiba did release a drive to upgrade when Windows 7 is released which was available to the buyer within the free upgrade period you. You may be able to find a disk, but you will need the Win7 license to go with it.

    If not, your only option is likely to be to buy a disk and license. Of course, you can find the specific Toshiba drivers are missing. If you think about it, it's extremely unlikely that you will be able to locate what is essentially a free Windows 7 download install disc.

    Without an optical drive, you need to use an external USB drive and the BIOS to boot from that first force.

    I hope that you have succeeded.

  • Copy a project and media for the new hard drive

    Greetings,

    I have a very large project stored on an external hard drive and would like to copy the whole thing, including the original media linked to a new hard drive... because I'm afraid that my old one may cease to operate quickly. How can I go on the copy of my project to a new hard disc as well that all sounds, music and video are related?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello.

    You can create a library of transfer in the user interface and move the top project. (It it will copy as you move it to a new drive)

    If you also move the media, it will break the links between the project and the media (audio and video). When you do that, use the command create a link (on the file menu). If you point to the good volume, it should find the media and offer you the ability to link again.

    Good luck.

  • Satellite Pro M45 overheating after a few updates and installation of new HARD drive

    I have a sat pro p4 overheated now. I tried the old hoover and this does not work. The thing is that both fans do not seem to turn on. All this happened after I downloaded some updates to put on a new hard drive, I bought.

    Now the fans are not at all turns. My m/b is actually a model of the A45 and I put a 2.0/128/400 CPU inside. The old man who was in it is a 2.4./512/533

    It seems that you have changed almost everything on the laptop.
    Motherboard, CPU, HARD drive, etc.

    Believe me; It s not easy to say why fans don t start. How everyone should exactly known what you did on your laptop?
    Maybe the card mother doesn t provide the power for the fan or the connection is failing.
    Are you sure that the motherboard is ok?

    Unfortunately, all we can do is to hear from you.
    But usually some diagnostic tests are needed to locate the fault.
