Portege R600 - performance SSD limited by SATA 1.0

Hello

I have improved my Portege R600 - 13 X replace SSD HARD drive (Sandisk Ultra Plus / SATA 3.0)
This laptop has the Intel® GS45 Express chipset supporting should SATA 2.0, but I can't reach 1.5 Gb/s transfer rate. I've updated everything as I could, including the BIOS - that does not show even any option that would for example switching between modes SATA...

Is there anyone with a SSD R600 and get better results?
I only failed to update the chipset installation ends with an error and suggests that there is something not quite right

Hello

Have you checked the BIOS for the SATA mode option settings?

Some BIOS supports a SATA mode: AHCI and compatible.
In case you want to use the SATA performance, you must use the AHCI parameter.

AFAIK the external eSATA port supports the 300 MB/s and in the BIOS must be set to serial ATA (default) port4.

The interface of the host load max 300 MB/s but sustained data read would be max 100 MB/s and 40 MB/s max sustained data write

    I agree with Akuma.
    The use of SSD drive should not be a big problem.
    If something does not work, try to update the firmware of SSD drive for the last s.
    In most cases, this action has resolved most of the problems

    Since the Portege R600 supports a SATA controller, the SSD drive should support the same standard of controller.

    Good luck and thanks for sharing your experience after upgrading the SSD drive

  • Portege R600 - SSD Compatiability

    Can someone confirm if OCZ, Kingston or SSD Transcend is compatiable with the Portege R600? I want to replace my main HARD with a 64/128 GB SDD drive.

    It should not be a problem if you want to use the SSD with the right interface. You need a SATA SSD.
    AFAIK the Portégé R600-102 was equipped with 120 GB SSD SATA.

  • Re: Portege R600 - upgrade to hybrid SSD + Win7

    The R600-4201 is _For far_ the best laptop computer I have ever owned or even seen, and I intend to keep it for as long as possible. I just bought a Seagate Momentus XT hybrid hard drive (SSD + magnetic) and Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

    To support installation hardware and the operating system switching from XP to W7, I will have redundant (more local cloud) perfect backups of data files to e-mail, data files, passwords, etc.

    Can anyone here guide me more access to specific Toshiba updates, drivers, BIOS, etc., should be done? Further guidance or advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!!!

    I think that this portable 2-book with the new operating system and hard drive will challenge anything on the market today. With radio offshore and with the Transflective screen, I get more of * WORK SIX HOURS * at the park or at the beach - there just isn't any better than that.

    Hi dude

    Thanks for the comments on the Portege R600.
    I like this laptop. I wish that I would have enough money to buy this toy, but I have a u400. It of also great computer laptop not too big... the size of the screen is perfect because I travel a lot

    -Driver Lan Wireless

  • Portege R600 - Dynadock displaylink installation failure

    I tried to install drivers 2.3 for a dynadock USB DVI, for use with a Portege R600.

    Whenever I tried, the DisplayLink driver installation fails, which means that the connection with the external monitor does not work.

    A few error messages appear:

    "This file has no program associated with it for performing this action...". "- referring to DisplayLinkCore, something--the window is truncated.

    The second message:

    'Impossible to install DisplayLink Core'

    The Portege is under XP SP3.

    Hello

    Average was last modified time when this package has been uploaded to the database server. Therefore, there is another date.

    By the way: the last pilot, you will find on the page of Intel.
    I have a laptop with Intel GPU and I use the driver from the Intel page.

    By the way: the resolution of the screen depends on the graphics chip and internal screen.
    If the display does not support preferred resolution for you, then you will not be able to select this

  • No Audio or USB ports with Port Replicator 3 and Portege R600

    I have a problem between my Port Replicator 3 (PA3681E-2PRP) and my Portege R600-13 X (Win7 Pro 32-bit). Everything has been working well for the past few months until a week ago. My PC has developed a problem then that plugged on the Port Replicator, it will not recognize something new that is connected to the USB (two PC & Replicator ones) ports, the Replicator audio output no longer works and the PC hangs during shutdown. Everything is OK with the PC when booted without the Replicator, but as soon as it is connected to the port replicator, in this case.

    I tried looking for information about this problem, but nothing helps... Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated as it is to set up a business and I need it to work properly.

    A few things to try:

    Reinstall the Toshiba Value Added Package.
    Use system restore to restore Windows to a previous state.
    Check the connector for docking station for damage.
    Back up your data and perform the recovery.

    If its still does not, then I would send the laptop and the Port Replicator Port for an ASP for repair.

  • Portege R600 - difference between the cooling options

    I have a Portege R600 with Windows 7 installed, but I guess my request is generic for all Porteges regardless of the version of Windows.

    Could someone please explain to me what really mean "options of cooling" in the power settings? I could not find the details of anywhere.

    Optimized battery means that the cpu fan is activated only beyond a certain temperature? And what is the difference between cooling and maximum performance?

    Is there another way to set the speed of the cpu fan directly?

    It is a very important point for me, because the fan of the Portege is terrible, too noisy, insofar as I plan to return the laptop unless I find a solution. Sometimes, this looks like a Ferrari to RPM 1 billion engine!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I think the explanation is quite simple: optimized cooling battery means that the fan is activated only on a temperature higher than the maximum performance mode and that s all I think.

    For example, if I put the battery optimized cooling notebook is a little hotter than the maximum performance mode, but if I can save energy. ;)

    In addition it s advisable to clean the laptop from time to time using a jet of compressed air!

  • Portege R600 - Windows 7 switch backlight does not

    I have a new Portege R600, comes with Windows 7 32 bit and the switch on / off for the backlight does not work.
    I installed the new VFR package, until I uninstalled the old. Also the latest version of the Bios.

    Use the support Toshiba button and placed in the file backlight.exe, still does not work. If I tap the backlight.exe file manually, it works.
    It is not a problem of material, as told in the hard drive of my old R600 with XP Professional and works of button.

    What can I do?
    Toshiba support is not able to help, to talk about the new facility, but is the original unchanged.
    Maybe in the button holder, I put in an option in the empty file?

    > Switch on / off the backlight does not work.
    AFAIK some BIOS versions contains the additional option to enable and disable the lighting.
    Please check if the lighting is not disabled in the BIOS.

    I also searched this forum for some tips and found this thread:

  • 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?

    > 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.
