R710 HDD upgrade (maximum size).

Hello

I need to upgrade the disks in my R710. Currently, I have SATA 6x1TB.

In the documentation , I found max supported disk size is 2 TB.

Then I found this NOTE from the ADMIN: broken link has been removed from this post by Dell disk > compatible with R710 3TO.

What information is true that both come from Dell website?

I use H310.

Thank you!

When the R710 was released, 2 TB was the largest supported and 3 TB were not common. Added support for the first update of the firmware > 2 TB disks on the H700 controller. The PERC 6 has a maximum limit of 2 TB per physical disk. So, to answer your question, both are met: 2 TB is the limit, if you use the PERC 6 (or SAS 6 controllers or S series) and 3 TB is supported on the H-series controllers.

The H310 will support larger than 2 TB disks, but it is not supported on the R710. It can work, but the H200 was designed to be used in the R710, not the H310, and it will also support > to 2 drives with the latest firmware.

  • What is the maximum size of HDD compatible on Satellite A300 PSAG4A-02M00M

    I was wondering if anyone can tell me the maximum size of hard drive that can handle a PSAG4A-02M00M and max running at 5400 RPM, (because I don't want it to be slower than that).

    And what specifications for disk replacement? (IDE, etc.)

    Thank you

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and you must use a SATA 2.5 HARD.

    You should be able to use any HDD SATA controller SATA HDD is not limited to any size. I think that the BIOS should also support a 320 GB HARD drive or more

    Hope this might help you

  • The maximum size of HDD to HP 8510

    Hello

    I just bought a 8510p on sale at auction and wanmt to upgrade to 120 GB to 750 GB HARD drive.

    Can Nyone you tell me if the 8510p can deal with a disk this size?

    If she cannot what is the maximum size that can be installed?

    Thank you very much

    Cameron

    Hello

    Based on the following specifications, it uses the HARD (probably SATA II) SATA drive so you can use the largest (HARD drive capacity). A 750 GB at 7200 RPM will be very nice for this machine:

    You may need to update the BIOS of the machine:

  • What is the maximum size of HARD drive, I use in my dc7600 CMT

    I use a HP dc7600 CMT, which works well after the upgrade to a Samsung 128 GB SSD Intel Pentium D 3.4 GHz, 4 GB of RAM and an AMD Radeon HD 6450. I'm under Win 8.1 Pro x 64, with the most recent upgrade and have absolutely no problem. Now, I want to add a second internal HDD and I wonder what is the maximum size that I can go to. I can't go up to 2 TB, or am I limited to a lower number? 1 TB? 500 GB? 250 GB?

    Will be happy to help here, especially if he actually tried to apply in practice.

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Hello:

    In theory, you'd be limited to 2 TB.

    The biggest HARD drive I have ever installed in my dc7600 CMT was a 1 TB of HDD, so I can't confirm that a 2 TB drive will absolutely work.

  • Satellite 5200 - maximum size of HARD drive

    Hello
    I have several times successfully updated my hard drive in my 5200-701.
    I am running a 100 GB HD as the primary drive and a 120 GB hard drive in the Bay of style.
    Unfortunately, I'm out of new space and want to step up to a 160 GB or even HD 200 GB.
    Does anyone know if there are no restrictions in the maximum size of a disk?
    I'm not an expert, but it tickles my mind that there was a moment where there is a limit of 132 GB, but that might have had something to do with Windows NT or 2000.
    I am running XP but always in the SP1 Version.

    Best regards
    Henning

    Hello Henning

    It is very useful to know that 5200 Satellite can work well with the HDD. You will be very happy if someone has tested the limits of capacity of HARD disk with this device. It's that there is no official document on this subject.

    As far as I know the maximum capacity of the HARD drive depends on the BIOS and not the operating system. I heard that the hardware (specialized for the hardware upgrade) can manipulate BIOS to work with hard disks of high capacity.

  • Need information about HDD upgrade on Equium A100-027

    HI people :-)

    Can I change the HARD disk drive in my Equium a100 027 for one with a speed of 7200 RPM?

    If not what is the largest size of HARD drive I can put in?

    It is also useful to do a lot to make a dual boot with Vista and XP or get one with Vista and the other drive with XP

    Someone can also point me in the direction of the place where to buy the right type of player with the correct connection... its SATA I think

    Thanks in advance for your help

    In my opinion, you can use the HARD drive with the speed of 7200 RPM. I put t really see no reason why this should not be possible!

    It is important that you buy a HARD drive with the interface supported and the size of the HARD drive.

    You are right; Equium A100 supports SATA HDD interface.
    You must not use SATA and IDE hard drives!

    According to some internet sites, the laptop came with 80 GB HARD drive.
    I presume that you should be able to upgrade the 120 GB HARD drive, but this is just a suggestion because Toshiba does not have any official information on the maximum size of HARD drive.

  • Equium A60-157: Question about maximum size of HARD drive

    Hello

    Looking to upgrade my Pentium 4 3.06GHz Equium A60-157 a bit then got a new module of 1024 MB of RAM, but now really to upgrade my 40 gb HDD to go with. I found all the specifications of the type of HARD drive, I need, but may not know what the maximum size of the disk, it is that the BIOS will recognize. I don't think that I've never updated by the BIOS and I'm looking to get a 120 GB drive. Any ideas please?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Alex,

    Most portable smanufactured in the last 5 years or so are able to accept larger hard drive capacity without problem. I am currently using a 80 GB drive in an old SA30 of three years. I can't guarantee a 120 GB drive will work, but I see no reason why it wouldn't.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite Pro A10 HDD upgrades

    Deploy a satellite pro a10. To upgrade HDD 2181 30 GB to a bigger drive, but don't know which drives are supported. Have founf Toshiba HDD 2188 80 GB which could do the job, but the Interface is different. His ATA - 6 rather than ATA - 5 on the old disk. Would this work? or if anyone knows of a reader that works id good to know

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    As far as I know that the Sat Pro A10 has been delivered with 3 different drives - 20 GB, 30 GB, 40 GB.
    In my opinion the 40 GB is a maximum size of HARD drive support. It is possible that the BIOS could not acknowledge more large drives.

  • HDD Upgrade 6710 b

    Eager to upgrade the original HDD in a notebook 6710 b, I came across a document that specifies that a disk 7200 RPM, the allowed maximum size is 120 GB.  I've never heard of this before; This size restriction is legitimate?  I suspect it may be related to feeding, but this seems a size abnormally low. Thank you

    It is not that the laptop does not support a 7200 RPM of 120 gig drive; who was the greatest, you could buy when the laptop was new so great in the specifications. As noted, laptop drives now go up to 1 TB but pay attention to what you buy. Number of drives 1 TB are either 5400 RPM or more thick (12 mm vs 9.5 mm) or both. You must have a 9.5 mm, not a 12.

  • Failure of hard drive in Dimension 8250, the maximum size and the type of replacement tips please

    Dimension 8250 (Feb 2003), Windows XP Home SP2, 60 GB HDD, 512 MB of RAM, BIOS A01 - entirely standard

    My hardrive suffers from weird deaf noise for a few months, but last week, it was a lot worse. Sometimes it starts up and is ok, othertimes it takes 1 hour to start and everything produces the deaf noise and is so slow, that it's unusable and other times simply clunks and not even start.

    Error messages received:

    (a) "drive Dell, monitoring system has detected that drive 0 on the primary Eide controller is out of normal, backup specifications and replace the HARD drive.

    (b) "error was detetcted on the HARD disk during the paging operation" (in the event viewer)

    (c) "driver detetcted a controller the HARD disk error" (in the event viewer)

    (d) when I run the Dell IDE Drive Diagnostics (F12), it says FAILED return Code 6

    Issues related to the:

    (1) am I correct that the drive needs replacement?

    (2) I want to just keep it very simple and buy a drive and adapt it, do not worry about BIOS or other upgrades. What I do pay attention to the size car that I buy, is there a maximum size that I can have with BIOS A01? Maybe thought to 120 GB? I just want to be able to adapt, without having to play around with BIOS upgrades so simply the easiest option, which is to buy, set up and reinstall the software. So, is there any limitation integrated with BIOS A01? The recovery CD is XP SP 1

    (3) am I correct that the PC supports up to 100 ATA if you need to make sure that I buy ATA 100 no ATA 133?

    (4) original drive is Hitachi, Seagate Barracuda would be better?

    (5) think active drive a 2 MB cache, a cache 8 MB drive would work ok without me having to pay anything and if yes is it useful on the 2 MB cache?

    Thanks for your time.

  • Portege R100: Question on the maximum size of HARD drive

    Hello

    I understand the internal player on the R100 is an ATA5 (Enhanced IDE), I've only used the IBM (now HGST) readers, they do a decent-sized on ATA6 disc, I guess, it will take the player that will support ATA5 as the controller on the R100 is ATA5 only.

    As for the size, what is the maximum size can I ride in this unit?

    The orginal is 5.4 width x depth x 7.9 height 8 mm. Can I assume all 1.8 inch drive will fot or is it a mine field?

    Thank you very much
    Ashley

    Hello

    AFAIK the R100 was delivered with a 30GB and 40GB HDD.
    I found an info that the hard drives are compatible:

    HDD1422: Width (mm) 54.0; Height (mm) 5.0 0.15; Depth (mm) 78.5 0.3
    MK2003GAH: Width: 54.0, height: 8.0, depth: 78.5
