Portege R600-108 - the tool to run the TRIM command to improve the performance of SSDS

Hello

We have a couple of R600-108 with SSDS, they run Vista Business 32-bit.

I was wondering if there is a utility I can download to run the TRIM command on drives to improve performance?

Thank you

James

Hello

To be honest I m not an expert in the increase in performance of the SSD, but according to the Wikipedia article, TRIM has been implemented in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 and came out with the final versions of these operating systems in October 2009.
It seems former SSD drives have firmware updates, otherwise the new command will be ignored.

According to Wikipedia, there are utilities that can send TRIM commands manually.
These utilities are available from various manufacturers such as Intel or G.Skill.
http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/trim

You can consult the Intel tool called "Intel Solid - State Drive Toolbox and Optimizer".

I hope this helps a little

  • Portege R600: Insert the system diskette in the drive. Press any key when ready

    I just bought a new hard drive for my R600, but after placing it I get the error:
    * Insert system disk in drive. Press a key when ready.*
    When you try to boot from it.

    In the FAQ, I think this means that the HARD drive is broken or undetectable. * However, this is not the case *, it is fresh from the store and perfectly readable with a live CD. I tried to reinstall windows, and which went perfectly, its only when it's startup time this nasty error.

    What should I do? My new SSD is an OCZ Core V2.

    To install Windows, you need the SATA drivers.
    You can set the SATA to IDE mode as Akuma said but I find that it is not a good solution. In IDE mode, you will have lost a little performance and the AHCI is faster.

    If you need to download the SATA drivers. The driver, you can find on the Web from Toshiba called Storage Manager site.
    Download the drivers and press on after having started from the CD F6 to load. For that you need an external floppy drive and if you n t have one that you can build your own installation with nLite disc.

  • How to activate 3G on Portege R600-108

    Model No.: PPR61E-00D00CEN
    OS: Vista Business

    I am sure that this model should have the capacity of 3G - there is an IMEI number on the case and each specification document lists 3G as being available. However, I can't get the laptop to recognise my SIM from Vodafone UK. In fact, I see no evidence that the device itself was recognized as there is no indication in the Device Manager, but the F3507g software will appear in programs and features. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it as well as the 3 G RF control electricity without effect. If I use the USB Vodafone dongle, I can connect correctly, but the whole point of buying a laptop with built in 3G should get away who need unsightly devices.

    Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do? Is there something in the BIOS, the registry or elsewhere who must be set to activate the device?

    I'm also intrigued as to why the manual for this laptop model barely mentions 3 G capability. It's as if it was not a priority and is not correctly set implementation (which may explain why it does not work!).

    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Maybe Vodafone have locked the SIM card to a specific modem type? I would call Vodafone to confirm that you can use other Modems.

    You have the 3 G Connection Manager installed? Download it on the site of Toshiba drivers, if it is not installed.

    Also update the BIOS with the latest version.

  • Portege R600-13Z - Toshiba utility SMS - slow / stop when the SIM is in!

    Hello

    Portege R600-13Z running XP Pro.

    Recently updated the firmware and the Wireless Manager to try to get 3g / GPRS comms to work at all. Updated worked a treat and have now great comms.

    Utility of SMS does not work too well if. Very, very slow or crashes.

    Wierdness: out the SIM card to use the phone to send a few texts and with the SIM on SMS utility works very well (!) starts, allows composition, everything except the real /sending/ of the text, which is of course not possible because the SIM card is somewhere else.

    Anyone encountered this problem, and is there a solution?

    Thank you very much

    Evan

    > took out the SIM card to use the phone to send a few texts and with the card SIM SMS utility works great
    If you noticed delays in using DMD utility only with the inserted SIM card?

    Hmm I m not very well why this happens, but I know it s not recommended to insert the SIM card if the system is already running.
    You must shut down the laptop, must insert the SIM card and then you should power the device in place.
    Then you could test this once more.

  • Portege R600 - the noise of the FAN

    The system is a Portege R600-102.

    When it was new, it was already noted that the CPU fan was unusually noisy when he started.
    Loaded with the latest drivers and BIOS, system becomes louder, especially now when its warmer outside.
    Fan and fan duct has been cleaned, no problem of dust.

    Does anyone else have this problem or noticed this behavior?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    You can reduce the activity fan and noise by changing the settings in energy of Toshiba.
    Please open and edit the parameters of the method of cooling. Upgrade the lowest.

    I do the same on my laptop and now runs a lot quieter.

    BTW: what operating system do you use?

  • Re: Disabled the connection Wireless on Win 7 - Portege R600

    I installed Windows 7 (new installation) on Toshiba Portege R600 laptop and the built in 3 G modem does not work.
    When I run Toshiba Wireless Manager, he wrote "the Radio is off. To activate, activate Mobile switch. ».

    I'm sure that this switch is on, but pass connections wireless using Fn + F8 does not work then maybe it is off but I can't allow it. I have installed all updates of drivers such as: Wireless, Wlan driver manager.
    BT Stack, etc.

    Does anyone have an idea?

    Hello

    Wait a minute;
    You want to activate; Modem WiFi or 3G?
    Please note that WiFi is not 3G modem.

    Don't forget that you have chosen and activated the modem 3G and not the WLan.

  • Portege R600 of fingerprint problem: error: could not open the specified database

    Hello

    I am trying to give the registration of fingerprints for my Toshiba Portege R600-101 and I get the above error.
    I tried also on windows XP and Vista.

    Has anyone with the same problem or anyone suggesting a solution?

    I uninstalled the truesuite Access Manager but still the same problem.

    See you soon.

    Hello

    I noticed a new update for software fingerprinting for protected R600.
    Remove the old application of fingerprints, restart the laptop, clean the registry and the system using a 3rd party too (CCLeaner is free and not bad).
    Then reboot again.

    Download the fingerprint on the page of the European driver Toshiba Software and install again.

  • Portege R600: try to get the external Radeon HD4650 graphics to work

    I have a Portege R600 with an ExpressCard interface and I'm trying to get this working with a Radeon HD4650 through a NetStor Turbobox without success

    It is impossible to detail more that I thought that the language is inappropriate, but everything I am captures the messages displayed by the laptop

    Hope it works at first

    Hello

    The laptop supports a simple slot ExpressCard.
    Usually, you should get an ExpressCard compatible all work.
    But I ve never used the NetStor Turbobox, so I can't say exactly if its compatible or not with this ExpressCard slot.

    Have you checked the page of the manufacturer of the NetStor Turbobox support?
    Maybe you'll get more details on this unit that maybe some special requirements are needed to use this

    Please post some info so you'll get some.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Regards, Richard.

    There is no special installation instruction details, but if you want to install the 64 bit Vista drivers then I recommend you start with the common as drivers:
    -Chip Set Utility
    -Display driver
    -LAN Driver
    -Driver Lan Wireless
    -Sound Driver
    -Intel Active Management Technology (AMT)
    - and so on...

    Please note that the laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and you need to install and include the SATA driver while the Vista Setup program.
    The SATA driver is part of the Intel Storage Manager.

  • Portege R600: How can I activate the modem 3G without original modem minipci slot

    Hello everyone,

    I own a Portege R600 (10 s) for laptop and I often use mobile internet.

    The built-in modem Ericsson 3507 is buggy, always freeze (and who need reset) from time to time. No firmware update or driver makes it more stable.
    So, I bought another 3G mini-pci modem, a huawei EM770, to replace the original modem.

    The problem is that I can't use more of the Fn + F8 combination to power on the 3G modem.
    The modem huawei is well detected, installed, but no power (the blue led is off).

    The question is how can I turn on the connector of the modem 3G mini-pci, without the original E3507 modem?
    Thank you in advance for any lawyer.

    M.

    Toshiba Value added package and control RF Utility 3 G are related to the F3507g (and F3607gw) and will not work with integrated modules, not supported by Toshiba.
    There could be BIOS problems as well.

    What was the problem with your F3507g?
    Looks like it works for many people.
    Maybe you have a bad Apple?

  • 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.

  • Portege R600-10 q - DVD drive open / not work after the start of Vista

    Hi all

    Its my first post here =). I just bought a new Portege R600-10 q (PPR61E) and I have a problem. The DVD player does not open / works after Vista started... it works very well, or at least opens / orange light turned on, before the page of connection, but after that nothing.

    I have done't the thing of high-low values regedit to see if it works, but still nothing.

    The device does not appear in Device Manager, so I can't remove and reinstall.
    I did all possible updates to toshiba and MS, nothing helps.

    Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Steve

    I don't know what you've done in the past, but I would like to know if everything works with the factory settings.

  • Portege R600 - how to use the external monitor on the docking automatically

    Hi - I just got a new Portege; R600-102. It's a great machine - very light and fast.

    I connect to a Slim port replicator to the office and I wish I could anchor and automatically use the external monitor without opening the laptop. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do it? This process has worked well on my recently retired Dell X 300.

    More precisely:
    # I have the laptop closed Portégé and standby mode
    # I anchor in the Slim Port Replicator (SPR)
    # I press the button 'on' on the SPR
    # I see the message "recovery windows" and the bars of the countdown on the external monitor. (So I know it's connected and you can see the external monitor)
    # The laptop turns on but use the laptop screen (private) LCD
    # I have to open it and manually tell it 'out to watch.
    What can be automatically?

    Thanks for the tips.

  • Portege R600-101 connects to the WLan but not to the Draft N

    Hi friends...

    I have a Portege R600-101 which is capable of 802.11b/g/n.
    I have now, I tried 2 routers (belkin and Netgear DG834N) to get connected to the speed n machine but no joy... any help greatly appreciated...

    See you soon
    Warren

    Hello!

    Can you connect to the router with the b/g project?

    Maybe the router or laptop computers is not set to the project in order to check the settings in the router and wireless network card.
    In addition, you must disable security as hidden SSID, MAC address filtering and so distant features.

    Good bye
