Portege R830-10 q build-in replacement of SSD

The SSD for my R830 is bit small for me :( Are there chances of swaping the exclusive SSD from Toshiba with a SATA SSD 'standard '? Asuming they are models of the machine's HARD drive, it must be a standard SATA interface and a HDD/SSD Caddy for the R830! I couldn't find info on such an Exchange on the web :( Any ideas?

Hello

Yes, the laptop supports the SATA controller and you can also use simple disk HARD SATA 1.8 inches.

In my opinion is not a big problem.

    It seemed began as soon as the automatic update from Microsoft on Qualcomm, Atheros, every time when connect to any WIFi, share internet, my portege R830 shows blue screen and the following error message:
    unhandled system_thread_exception (athwb.sys)

    I found that I am not the isolated on the Web site. I tried to remove and stop updates. However, once I connect to the internet, the blue screen comes back.

    Is the problem because of the network adapter? The model is Qualcomm Atheros AR9002WB
    Can solve the problem if I download the new driver of Qualcomm-Atheros site? Or if I replace a new adapter?

    The athwb.sys file belongs to the Atheros wireless driver. Usually placed in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\athwb.sys
    It seems that in your case this file causing the BSOD.

    I found a very interesting detail about this problem and why it seems.

    Thank you

    Portege R830 supports only a single disk drive HARD or SSD.

    With regard to the optical adapter Bay HDD/SSD Caddy:
    I'm not quite sure if BIOS would be able to use suchpart m.

    In the past, some computers laptop Toshiba supported Select Bay who was allowed to use the HARD disk enclosure in the Bay of ODD, but many books don't supports this functionality.

    In the worst cases, you need to replace your current HDD/SSD with the biggest HDD/SSD

    Parts for Portege R830 should be compatible with the R835 too.
    Usually, it's the same series but released in another region.

    The screen seems to be compatible with the Portege R705 and R830, R835 series.
    This is why it should be compatible with your model too.

  • Portege R830 - model with SSD or HARD drive?

    Hello!

    I am considering buying a Portege R830. I've yet to decide between the Portégé R830-10R (model with HARD drive) and the Portégé R830 - 10 p (model with a 256 GB SSD). To do this, I would like to know:

    -What is the SSD model assembled in the Portégé R830?
    -It uses a standard SATA connection or an owner like the previous Portégé R700 SSD?
    -Have someone replaced the original HDD to the Portégé R830 by a whole new SATA 3 SSD? Wich one? It works fine?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi MadVet,

    The SSD of Portege R830 - 10 p is a model of Toshiba 2.5 so it does not work in Portege R830. In addition due to the 2.5 form factor it uses SATA standard interface as normal hard drives.

    In my opinion, you should take the model with SSD. 256 GB is enough for the operating system and applications as well as for some important data. If you need more disk external HARD disk space use. SSDS are very fast and you will see the performance of the SSD HARD drive instead ;)

  • Portege R830 - Win 8.1 Value Added Package (Flash cards)

    Hello.

    First of all I would like to say that I used my Toshiba Portege R830 with all the operating systems since Windows 7 and I have never installed fresh OS.
    That said, I could not use Intel WiDi on Win10 and had to return to Win8 (DVD which I happily bought as well as the upgrade).

    I installed all the software Toshiba using Upgrade Wizard and for the first time since the 2011', there was no Flash cards available (drop-down menu shown with use of the Fn keys). I used to like 2.5 years on Win 8/8.1 and now his party and is not available to the installation...

    WTF? After a week, I discovered that cards Flash is not present in VAP 1.6 (only in 1.5.X.X or earlier).
    Unfortunately I can't install only stand-alone Flash cards (or can I?).

    And here my question: if I install VAP 1.5 (with Flash cards), can I (ANYHOW) strengthen certain elements (such as system driver) without uninstalling the previous version of VAP?

    From my experience when I run VAP 1.6 installer first thing it does is an uninstall complete previous versions.

    Please help me! I can't imagine who thought that removing the 1.6 flash cards would be a good idea...

    Driver Toshiba UE page provides the Key Utility for Windows 8 Upgrade feature Toshiba v1.00.6626.03.

    Hello Forum,

    I have exactly the same problem as described here 2 years ago:

    I need to update my BIOS, but I can't because the update of the BIOS told me that the Intel TXT is enabled.
    Unfortunately I can not disable it in my bios. Its just not selectable. The 'cursor' jumping just above him.
    I can only 'hide' which does not help.
    I have the same thing for the VT - x and VT - d setting in the BIOS. Is not selectable or editable as well.

    TPM is not active if...
    I installed after infineon and he tells me I need to enable the TPM in the bios to use. :-(

    I have a very old Bios Version 3.1 and I read in the changelog that there are a lot of TPM in v 3.4 and 3.5 related changes...

    In any case...
    A P007Dv360A_EC77V140.zip file has been transferred to 2shared.com who fixed it at the time, a user named Paolo30.
    Unfortunately, that this file has been deleted on 2shared.com

    can someone please provide this file (or an update of the bios later) which resolves this issue?

    Stupid question maybe now but why do you want to update the BIOS on this, I think, fairly new laptop model?
