R60 hard drive interface

Hello

I would like to buy Solid State Drive and Ultrabay Slim adapter for my ThinkPad R60 (9456-HTG) then install SSD as internal hard drive, while my original hard drive would be in housing ultrabay (internal SSD for the system and hard drive in the ultrabay for use from time to time slot). However, I doubt what kind of SSD should I buy? I mean what kind of interface? In other words, what hard disk interface is compatible with TP R60? Serial - ATA (SATA/150) I or Paralel ATA? According to the information on the Lenovo Web page it is SATA (which probably means SATA I). According to the information on the original web page of the manufacturer of the hard drive, it could be SATA I (SATA/150) or Ultra ATA/133 as it is written to the standard ATA/ATAPI-7. According to Ultrabay Slim adapterinformation, which must be compatible with my laptop, the Web ThinkWiki page: 'the map contains a PATA to SATA bridge piece, which means that the drive is SATA, it connects as a PATA (IDE) device', then perhaps also the internal drive has PATA-133 Interface? So, to make the story short, what type of interface is used for a hard drive in TP R60? Anyone know the final answer?

Concerning

Eryk

The system hard drive is SATA. Optical drive [which you intend to replace the Ultrabay adapter] is PATA/IDE.

Lecter says:

'The map contains a PATA to SATA bridge piece, which means that the drive is SATA, it connects as a device PATA (IDE)'

This means that the adapter Ultrabay [for use a second hard drive] must convert the SATA hard drive [old drive system hard] for use with the PATA/IDE controller. Where the word "adapter".

  • Satellite A200-193 - installing an extra HARD drive

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200-193 and I would like to install one additional go 160 HARD drive into the free location.
    The problem is that there is no SATA connector to this place (switch on the motherboard, not more).
    I know there are computer A200 laptop with a second HDD and my question is "if I go into an official TOSHIBA Service Center, it is possible to install a SATA connector in this free site, this is to allow the installation of additional HARD drive?

    If someone could help me on this point, it would be great.

    Thank you.

    Hi Mathieu

    I see that you are a bit confused ;)
    As you known t n, there are probably different Satellite A200 series a series helps the second HARD drive upgrade and some A200 series cannot be upgraded
    But the A200 series was equipped with the same laptop covers

    This means that you will find the second drive HARD on all mobile A200 Bay but the drive HARD (SATA) connectors don t exist on each series.
    It seems that your laptop cannot be upgraded with the second HARD disk because of the second missing HARD drive interface.

    I hope I can clarify this confusing question ;)

    Good bye

  • Satellite C55-A-12U-> hard drive MQ01ABD100

    Hello
    All of a sudden my phone showed me a message on 'repair hard disk' just after the switch on.
    He continued in the same State. Long wait gave no results.
    Refresh and reset the options also gave the error.
    I tried to install the image but got the error windows cannot find the fixed drive.

    After searching online, I found that this could be because the SATA drivers are not available. Advice is to change from SATA to AHCI IDE ro.
    But I don't see this option in the BIOS Setup.
    There is no current option/display of HARD drive interface setting or changing.

    However, it looks like this my my drive is defective and must be replaced.

    The hard drive is "MQ01ABD100".

    • Should I replace with the same model? Can I replace it with another model and or to do? I shall be the restoration of the laptop the laptop Image that I've previously stored on rare DVDs.
    • What is the top model of this drive? Is it compatible with my laptop?
    • In which stores in Brussels/Belgium buy this drive and for hos much?

    Thank you.

    Leave it on AHCI, no need to change the SATA mode.

    Looks like Windows has been repairing the file system, it does not mean that the drive is defective.

    Check the SMART status of the HARD drive by using http://crystalmark.info/software/Cry...o/index-e.html

    If it is indeed faulty, you can replace it with any 2.5 "SATA HDD or SSD. Some SSD may have if compatibility problems.

  • Satellite 3000-100: need new HARD drive

    Hello

    I am looking for a new HARD drive for my laptop.

    I've already tired 3 different (2xHiachi, 1xToshiba MK2023GAS) HARD drives, but the Bios (latest Version 2.40) could not detect them.

    Nobody knows that suits HARD drive?

    Thank you

    Hello

    As far as I know the Satellite 3000-100 supports an Enhanced IDE Ultra DMA66/100 interface.
    Therefore, use this HARD drive interface compatible hard drives.

    The 20 GB HARD drive should be compatible due to the fact that this device was equipped with a 20 GB HARD drive too.

    I discovered that these drives may be supported:
    PA3100U 15 GB HDD-modular
    PA3101U modular HARD 30 GB disk

    Try simply google for this part numbers and you should get a few hits.

    I wonder just who should have this info. This info is probably available in some non-public documents. You have this HARD drive?

    Product: F9J38UA #ABA

    Model: 17-e117dx

    Thank you

    Not in the way you probably do. Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See Page 50. Unlike the Envy 17 and Pavilion dv7, Pavilion 17 has that a single hard drive Bay. The only way to add a second hard drive is to remove the DVD (optical drive) and insert a DVD to the hard drive bay adapter. The manual shows how to remove the DVD player and you can buy the adapter at amazon.com or jacobsparts.com. Note that this is a 9.5 mm thick disc, not a 12.7 mm. Both types are available. I do not recommend the adapter DVD player solution because you lose the use of the optical drive, and also because the interface of optical drive is usually not as fast as the main hard drive interface. Always fast enough for simple storage and you can run a video of her, but you do not want to edit the video of this disc, for example.

    https://www.jacobsparts.com/items/HDDBAY-02/

    If you decide to go the route of adapter DVD I would buy a large capacity 5400 RPM SATA 2.5 inches wide and drive hard thickness 9.5 mm. No sense in buying a reader more expensive high-performance.

    Hello @laurencewithau,

    I understand that you are looking to upgrade the hard drive on your desktop computer, and I'd be happy to help you in this case!

    According to the Specifications of the product, you can update your system with any size of drive hard as much as it meets the following requirements:

    1. It has a SATA port connection
    2. The male power connector corresponds to the insertion on the replacement hard drive
    3. It is the same physical size as the previous hard disk. If it is less, you can always purchase a mounting bracket on the space difference.

    For more information about upgrading the hard drive, please take a look at this resource on installing or replacing a hard drive.

    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!

  • Can I add an additional hard drive storage?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    Basically, you have two choices:

    1. install a second hard drive (only possible if your computer has physical space for this)

    2. replace your 40 GB with a bigger drive.

    If you add or replace, there are two important factors you need to consider size and interface type.  Most laptops use 2.5-inch disks.  Most of office/towers use 3.5-inch disks.  There are several different hard drive interfaces, and you get a drive that has the same interface as your computer.

    Most older computers use the Parallel ATA interface (PATA or sometimes simply ATA).  These discs are also called IDE disks.  There are several variations, but those generally available today is the Ultra ATA66 IDE / ATA - 5, Ultra ATA100 IDE / ATA - 6 and the Ultra ATA133 IDE / ATA-7.  The numbers refer to the data transfer rate.  No matter the data transfer capacity of the disc, however, your actual data transfer rates will be limited by your motherboard.  Finally, you'll notice an RPM rating and a size of "cache".  For the performance, in general, the higher these numbers the better the performance.

    Number of computers more recent uses the interface Serial ATA (SATA).  There are three versions of the present.  SATA-1 (1.5 Gbps), SATA-2 (3 Gbps) and SATA-3 (6 Gbps).  However, given that you currently have a 40 GB drive, it is strong enough to bet that you have NOT of SATA.

    Another interface is SCSI.  You have probably not SCSI.

    The starting point is by identifying the brand and model of your computer.  If you have a desktop/Tower computer, you can buy almost any hard drive, that you like; laptops can be a bit more picky.  A good resource for readers (once you know what you want) is newegg.com  Drive Solutions offer one advice that should tell you what players are compatible with your computer.

    If you choose to replace rather than add them, you will need to 'clone' of your existing to the new drive.  To do this, you will need appropriate software.  Sometimes, the software basic disk of cloning comes with the disk (remember to read the product description or email/call the seller before you buy).  Sometimes, it is available as a free download from the manufacturer of the drive (for example, if you buy a Western Digital drive, WD has "Acronis True Image WD Edition Software").  Or you can get your own copy of various applications of cloning, some are free, but more for sale.

    If you replace a laptop (or a drive in a desktop/tower with no computer available drive Bay), you can buy an external hard drive enclosure.  There are a variety of them.  Just be sure to get one with the internal interface correctly to match the drive and an external interface that is compatible with your computer (usually, USB 2.0).  External hard disk enclosure are sometimes comes with disk cloning software.  And, once your new drive is in place and functioning satisfactorily, you can put the old drive in the box and erase (format) it and use it as a backup drive.

    Above sounds a lot more complicated than it is.  You will probably find even the process YouTube videos, if you look at.

    Or is there any external HARD disk enclosure can be used to read the data hard disk, the data does not have compreesed.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello! You need a new PC Yep!
    But there are other ways to do

    You can buy a SATA USB adapter that will allow you to plug in the HARD drive on another PC and the take-off data

    NOW YOU CAN ONLY SAVE DATA FROM THE DISK IF THE HARD DRIVE IS NOT DEAD

    Good luck!

  • All new Dell XPS - hard drive dead - why? What to do next?

    Hello

    My laptop is only a few months old. Here are the plug and the summary of what past:

    • Windows Vista Home Premium
    • Western Digital Scorpio WD3200BEVT hard, 320 GB capacity, a new computer laptop Dell XPS M1530, Serial ATA Hard Drive, Interface SATA 5400 RPM
    • Black screen saying no bootable devices, the BIOS doesn't detect HD, no rattling or other noise.
    • Need JPEG and PSD files recovered.
    • It took in a few places, they said he had no visible external damage, but the BIOS would not detect HD.

    Hours before the accident/death:
    I went to my husband's office. I was using an ethernet network connection. The computer company made some changes to their network to prevent me from access to the files of the company and only have access to the internet only.

    Who could do something on my computer? I surfed on the internet for a few hours after making these changes to the network. Then I went home, started again and got the black screen with the error message "no bootable device. The BIOS does not detect my HD.

    Any ideas why this happened on a new computer/laptop HD?

    Do you know of any service data recovery 'white room', which have a fixed rate lower than $ 900?

    Thanks in advance.


  • HP G72 - b00: which hard drive on laptop HP G72t-b00 interface?

    I have a laptop HP G72t - b00 CTO with a few updates that I bought in December 2010. I considered buying an SSD for her to help performance (it keeps well enough yet, but I would like an additional performance for a key task). I read online somewhere (not necessarily good reputation) that the HP - G72 uses the interface Serial ATA-150 for hard drives, which, from my understanding, has a maximum speed of 150 MB/s. I know that the laptop is old, but this technology dates back to 2003 or more and the standard SATA had many improvements 2010. It would be very surprising to me if HP has chosen to use it.

    Then... Does anyone know what drive hard interface uses HP G72t-b00?

    Thank you!

    first mark a set of recovery media to start, program, thinkvantage, create recovery media. After having done this, then make a backup of your system using rescue and recovery software and then burn the backup to DVD or store it on an external hard drive.

    Now install the new hard drive, then restore the partition recovery and BONE using disks 3 recovery media that you have created, insert disk boot disks 1 and follow invites it. After you install the new copy of the OS with the drivers, you can recharge your backup from rescue and recovery backups that you burn to DVD or stored on the external hard drive.

  • Is it possible to add a hard drive to a VM running via a script or a program without using the user interface

    I'll try to ask this question clearly, but I ask that read you it carefully, because I can't do a great job of setting out clearly what I'm looking for.

    I know how to create a virtual disk in a batch file or a script.  I know how to have a running virtual machine to detect a newly added hard drive and format it in Linux, BACK, and NetWare. I do not have scripted this part, but I did it manually by adding records via the UI and then by doing the steps manually to make the operating system to detect and format the newly added drive. In each case, these steps are scriptable with the exception of the addition of the drive in the user interface.

    The only way I know to add a new hard disk to a virtual computer running is through the user interface. I don't know in a way that can contain script (for example vmrun or an API call) to make.

    I guess that maybe I can have the virtual machine to go into sleep mode and then add the HDD in the vmx file while the machine is in standby mode, then put the computer to sleep mode, although I have not tested this.

    My question is, ' can a virtual drive be added to a virtual machine running without using the user interface and without put the machine to sleep, or in other words in a script any?
