• put the HARD drive in the optical drive stock

  Hi all

  I'm sorry if this is redundant, but I couldn't find the answer to any where or through telephone Support from Lenovo.

  I received the W530 with stock 500 GB HARD drive, but I want to replace it with the Pro of 840 Samsung SSD and put the HARD drive in the optical drive. I just restore the image from HARD disc for my SSD orginal (now in the original HARD drive box).

  At first I thought that I just leave the HARD drive in the original Bay and use the optical drive for the SSD, but since I use the SSD for the OS, and I want to use the DVD player sometimes, I thought I should put the SSD in original HDD bay and the HARD disk in the optical drive.

  I'm sure I've read that a lot of people did it with success, but I do not know much about computers and have never done nothing wise hardwear. I tried to put the HARD drive in the caddy Newmode U.S. optical drive, but it wouldn't fit (the screw on the caddy heads are too big). I think it's because the HARD drive still has the metal casing on it. I am worried, however, that if I remove the caddy, it voids my warranty, and above all, I am wanting to make sure it is the correct and safe way to the stock HARD drive in the optical drive.

  I put the rails HARD original on the SSD drive rubber because it is in which Bay but you have no other rails to the HARD drive in the case of the optical drive, and I don't even think he would fit in.

  So, it's OK to remove the carriage on the stock of HARD drive and put it in the optical drive without any kind of rails or protection (but attach it to the optical drive with the supplied screws caddy)? I think that's what I have to do anyway with the SSd, if she had to go into the optical drive.

  I am also an upgrade of RAM, but the keyboard under the bottom access RAM screw is stripped, so I can't remove the original RAM (it is under keyboard) and use the optimal 0 and DIMM slot installation 1. Any ideas?

  Thanks for your time, and once again, sorry if this is very basic.

  Change hard drives and memory do not void the warranty.

  The DSS must be installed exactly as the original HARD drive was, with rails caddy and rubber.

  The HARD drive in DVD case must be inserted with the 4 screws with the caddy, nothing else.

  To remove the stripped screw, you must use the small (jeweller preference) needle clamp with extreme caution, or slowly drop the screw head to create a new location. The second option is more dangerous because it produces small deposits of metal. If you can't do it yourself, ajeweller could do this easily for you.

  Good luck!

• My MB died and after to put the HARD drive in the new XP machine crashes before the activation screen may appear.

  Original title: XP Pro crashes when MB died and move new HDD PC.

  My MB died and after to put the HARD drive in the new XP machine crashes before the activation screen may appear.

  I can access the HARD drive if I boot from another HARD drive (delivered with the Machine).  Windows just hangs.

  Thanks for any help...

  Hello

  If you try to boot from the hard disk on which windows was installed by using another computer and then, you will not be able to boot from it. You can try to perform a Windows XP repair install and check.

  Hello

  I agree with Akuma. You must take the HARD disk at 5400 RPM. It should be pretty fast and produces less heat. It is good for office and multimedia applications.

  I hope you enjoy with your new HARD drive. ;)

• Can Tecra M9 - I put the HARD drive?

  I currently own a * Tecra M9 - 15I * (part PTM91E-04R03TEN No. - discontinued model).

  When I bought the laptop, it came with a 120 GB HARD drive. I am running Windows Vista Business which fills almost half of the hard drive. I want to upgrade the HARD drive because I think the upgrade to Windows 7.

  Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? If so, what are the compatible HARD drive options? If I do not change the HARD drive, this will affect the status of the guarantee of the laptop? for example, I currently have a 3 year warranty and the warranty upgrade HARD drive Toshiba?

  Hello!

  Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive on your laptop and this doesn t affect the warranty. HDD upgrade isn't complicated and so it can be done by the user.

  To swap the HARD drive, you need only remove the screws to the HARD drive Bay and remove the HARD disk cover. Then you can see the HARD drive and swap it.
  I don t know you, look in your user manual. You will find interesting information and photos on this topic.

  Theoretically, you can buy each HARD drive you want. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.
  I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

  Good bye

• Can satellite M70-337 - I put the HARD drive?

  Hi all,.

  I have a Satellite M70-337, the vehicle currently has 40 GB of hard drive. The laptop has served me well and I want to upgrade the hard drive 100 GB +, anyone has done this?

  If Yes please advise on the type of hard drive required and their availability. I have 2 GB of RAM and want to run Windows 7 on this computer.

  Hey mate,

  Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive why not? :)

  AFAIK Equium M70 already use hard drives with Serial ATA interface. This means that you must buy a 2.5 HARD drive with this interface.
  For example, a 120 GB model should work!

  In my view, it is irrelevant, what type (manufacturing) that you choose. There is no major differences, but I have good experiences with Western Digital.

• Satellite 1900-303: can I put the hard drive 120 GB

  I have a S1900-303 and I think to raise the 120 GB hard drive. What are the problems, if any, are that I meet and I can do froom the Toshiba startup disk or do I just install XP from a XP disc?

  Hello

  That I myself remember Satellite 1900-303 has been delivered with the 30 GB HARD drive.
  So, in my opinion, 120 GB HARD drive size is too big and I presume that the BIOS of the laptop will not recognize the HARD drive!

  I think you can use a 40 GB, 60 GB and a 80 GB HARD disk.

  PS: you must search the HARD disk with the IDE (ATA-5) increased!

  Good luck and have a nice day

• Can satellite A100 - I put the HARD drive with 7200 RPM model?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100-044, I would spend my the 120 GB HARD drive to a more large (250 GB or 320 GB).

  A 7200 RPM would work on this subject? It seems Web compatibility sites they show 5400 RPM more, I would like to set up my laptop for recording/mastering so music wants a fast machine, I don't really mind if it consumes more energy...

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you
  Stone

  Hello!

  Of course, you can swap the HARD drive with a model more fast using 7200 RPM. But as you say, it takes a little more energy. The new HARD drive should be a little faster, especially access time should be lower.

  250 GB or 320 GB should be possible; you need a HARD drive with SATA interface.

  I hope I could help a bit.

  Good bye

• Replacing the hard drive DELL XPS L501X

  Lately, I got some error messages like "SMART has detected a hard disk failure." Back up your data immediately. »

  I think there is no option available troubleshooting now and I need to replace my HARD drive with a new one. Indicate if there is. For a new HARD drive, I came across Hitachi Travelstar Z7K500 which has the best record and is available at a very good price. Some of its strengths:

  • First 7200 RPM, 500 GB in a 7mm single disc design
  • Advanced format, 512-byte emulation
  • First interface SATA 6 Gb/s on a mobile HARD drive

  I'm just worried if I do I face compatibility problems as it has only 7 mm in height compared to my older HDD which was 9.5 mm in height. I'd love to learn more about this and other suggestions you might have.

  All SATA drives are backward compatible - and SATA6G questions only for SSDS.  No hard drive can withstand even 150 Mbps - and yet less than 3G / 6G.  The interface may, but does not have the mechanical hard drives.

• Replacing the hard drive Dell XPS 9100

  My hard drive to 500 GB boot is dying, that I need to replace the HD with a hard disk the same or I can pick up a 1 to Sata HD and it would work. Not sure if I can just get any type of hard drive and it will work.

  Thank you

  Lou,

• Dell studio xps 1645 sound driver IDT works only when it is installed.

  I have the dell studio xps 1645 with windows 7 home premium 64-bit installed on. I have a problem since I format the laptop and reinstalled windows 7 and driver.

  The problem is that with the IDT sound card driver. When I start up the laptop, I couldn't find any noise until then I install the IDT audio driver which is from the website of dell (dell.com.au) under the drivers of dell studio xps 1645 by download. Sounds appears when I installed this driver, but it is not as it should. I mean whenever I do reboot or turn off and then on the laptop, the sound will not come up to what I do reinstall the driver again. The thing is that I have to reinstall the driver whenever I want to use the laptop. can you help me out of this problem? is there any solution for this? I did some research until I get the way to recover my sound, but yes I'm stuck with this relocation pilot to use sound. I did troubleshooting of windows and he said nothing wrong with it. I'll also technician support close to home and they couldn't find anything wrong. I therefore ask microsoft in the hope that they know the way

  . Thank you.

  Hi Felix,.

  Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of community of Microsoft.

  I understand that the sound of your system plays only after you update the audio drivers. The question could arise due to the installation of the corrupt or incompatible driver package.

  Before troubleshooting, I would like to inform you that the drivers for the model of your system on the Dell Web site are displayed for Windows Vista, by default. So, I recommend you to change the operating system to Windows 7 while choosing for pilots.

  In addition, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Try running the fixit for audio playback of Windows problems and check if it helps.

  Diagnose and solve the problems of Windows audio playback automatically

  If the problem persists, try the following method.

  Method 2:

  If you have installed Windows 7 drivers from the website and have not properly been able to play the audio, then I suggest you to install the Windows Vista drivers from Dell site in compatibility mode and check for the issue.

  1. Download the Windows Vista driver on the Dell website.
  2. Right-click on the downloaded driver file.
  3. ClickProperties , and then select the compatibility tab.
  4. Check enable the option run this program in compatibility mode for: , then select Windows Vista from the drop down.
  5. Click OK and install the driver.

• Replacing the hard drive and Recovery console repair turns into a nightmare of activation

  I took the hard drive of a computer dell laptop is no longer used and put it in my current toshiba laptop (in which the hard drive was dead prior).

  I had my laptop to accept the hard drive by using the recovery console and do a chkdsk with the repair option. After repairs the laptop now wants to be activated.

  So now I use my laptop with a hard drive built to a dell computer. Of course, I uninstalled all the bloatware and replaced all the drivers with the right. the hard drive works fine with my laptop. This isn't the problem.

  My problem is that windows will not activate. It is a genuine copy of windows xp home edition, purchased from dell. I got through all of the activation methods and they tell me that the installation id is invalid. I'm basically a big circle with phone support to web support.

  If my product key is known to be valid for windows xp family when he was on the hard drive in the computer dell laptop, why is it not valid when traded to the computer toshiba laptop and why used someone help me with this problem. I can't be the only one that this has happened?

  as a reminder, swapped a hardrive is no longer in use of the computer, a work computer. has ran chkdsk to fix disk errors, after reboot windows is enabled is no longer and requires activation. Activation Assistant will not accept the installation as id being valid and would call support, when I go to real profit online to activate it also error. How can I activate this well-known work product id? I'm not hacking because he is no longer in use, basically, I am on a windows xp home edition right now and nobody will help me.

  Thanks in advance

  Dan

  The hard drive Dell has a "Dell" OEM of Windows XP version and a "Dell" product key (and might even be locked BIOS) that will not work on your Toshiba.

  As with all versions once installed on a computer/motherboard OEM it cannot be moved to another PC.

• Portege M200 - the hard drive failed

  My 60 GB Toshiba hard drive failed in my Portege M200.

  I tried mounting a hard drive, I had in my old laptop, a 30 GB Hitachi hard drive but the laptop doesn't seem to recognize it. Does need a Toshiba hard drive or is the laptop died, when I put the hard drive in I get message invalid startup disk.

  The old hard drive goes to a blue screen then restart the laptop.

  No there not Toshiba HDD only. I found the list of some compatible hard drives for this old Portege.
  You can use follow hard drives:
  -TOSHIBA HDD2193B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2171B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2184B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2194B
  -HITACHI G8BC00014410
  -HITACHI G8BC00014610
  -HITACHI G8BC00015610
  -HITACHI G8BC00014810

  Anyway, when you try to use new BIOS to check updated HARD drive and if default settings the new HARD drive will be recognized correctly in the BIOS settings.

  Old HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?
  Have you tried to install the OS by using old HDD?

• Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1DJ does not supply power to the top after removing the HARD drive

  Hello world!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1DJ. It has a 750 GB HARD drive, but it wasn't enough for me. So I bought a Toshiba 1 TB HARD drive. I have undone all the screws, carefully (using my driver's license), lifted up the plastic and removed a HARD disk.

  BTW, I really like this plastic solution on the HARD drive!

  Then I realized, that all my stuff is still on it.
  So I put the HARD drive, I'm going to copy everything on my drive hard Ext. planning.
  Well I screwed it back, got the battery, put the back of the AC adapter.

  Battery charge light was on, indicating that the current flows. I pressed the 'Start' button, and nothing happened. He broke yet still nothing. I plugged the battery and the AC output adapter, I held the Power button for 30 seconds, put everything back still nothing. I got scared. Opened back once more, just to take a look at, so anything that slipped on. Nope.

  Everything is a okay. What should do? I have the warranty? I hope not.
  Can I fix myself without void my warranty? I hope so!

  And also: I bought the laptop in Hungary, but I'm in Germany. Can I fix here in case my warranty is valid?

  Thank you very much for your help!

  Sincerely,
  Bertold Juhasz

  PS: As you say that English is not my native language, please don't flip out on my grammar I know it's wrong

  I just took the hard drive out of mine and put it back to see if I could reproduce your problem after trying several times I had no problem.
  Have you checked the pins at the end of the hard drive to see if all are damaged, another that I can't imagine what else.

  ICH habe just die Fliegengitter aus von mir gemacht und wieder, um zu sehen, ob ich das problem nach dem Versuch're mehrmals I had keine zu make a replication problem.
  Haben Sie die pins am Ende der Tiger uberpruft, um zu sehen, wenn eine beschadigt sind, dass ich nicht, except a great denken nichts.
