• Satellite P300 - upgrade to larger hard drives and 7200 RPM?

  I have a Satellite P300, model PSPCCA-01W073 (sold in Australia). Machine has two 320 GB of HARD drive. Yes, it's all up to 640 GB. I upgraded to Windows 7 OS and I have dual boot in to Linux Ubuntu.

  My job is editing/processing of multimedia files big and my hard drives are overexploited, so I now I am forced to exchange large files back and fourth with various USB hard drives. If I can replace the existing readers with much larger models, then I will go ahead and do it. .. But at this point, I'm out of my depth!

  I asked the support from Toshiba if P300 supports larger disks but they will not engage all the answers outside the original specifications. They suggest that I should try Toshiba users forum for more help.

  A kind person could tell me if it is possible to run drives 320 GB and the size. Also, I believe that the existing drives are 5400 RPM. My online store parts and pieces of local computer lists a choice between Hitachi, WD, Seagate and Samsung with sizes:

  (2.5 "/ 5400 RPM") 320 GB, 500 GB, 750 GB and 1 TB as well as sizes: (2.5 "/ 7200 rpm") 500 GB, 640 GB and 750 GB.

  So my second question; y at - it no advantage or disadvantage to the superior speed of 7200 RPM.

  TIA, your help should prevent to me yet an another expensive blunder.

  Hello

  Theoretically more big hard drives must be supported and should not be a big problem to use this HARD drive as the SATA controller is not limited to any size.

  Also the use of the faster HARD drive 7200 RPM should not affect the performance of the laptop even if this HARD drive faster produce more heat

  In my opinion you can upgrade to a larger and faster HARD drive

• Satellite P300D install second hard drive location

  I own a P300D, it has 1 location where sits the preinstalled hard drive and an another just like it the other side. but the plastic cover of the second slot has a bunch of plastic columns that block the slot if the plastic cover is used to close the slot.

  How we're supposed to fit a second hdd in there?
  Am I expected to by an another plastic cover?

  where can I get the metal frame to keep the hard drive correctly?
  The exact product names would be nice :)

  Thank you!

  Hello

  First of all, not all Satellite P300 models can be upgraded with a second HDD.
  Even if the second HARD drive Bay is available, you will not be able to insert a second HDD if the HDD connectors are missing.

  To verify if the connectors are available for this

• Re: Satellite A300 - second hard drive

  Hello

  Perhaps some may say where I can buy hard disk for the motherboard conector?
  I have place for HDD and connections on the motherboard, but don't not have hard drive connector.
  Camputer are 1gn A300.

  Help, please!

  Hi Lotus

  Toshiba offers Satellite A300 with one or two hard drives with two different mothers. Plastic cover is the same for both models of laptops and that's why there are two disk HARD covered and placed two HARD drive. Laptops without SATA connectors are not ready for the upgrade.

  No one here in this forum has reported that these updates possible if laptop doesn t have original SATA connector to the second HARD drive, so I think that you cannot upgrade your laptop with the second HARD drive.

  By the way: it's not easy to find these parts.

• Satellite P70 - how to use the second HARD drive?

  I have recently bought a satellite P70 - A - 10 d.

  I see that there is no second location on hard disk, so I can install a second disk.
  You can see the second slot in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uW75IsuFeoY.

  But I can't understand how screed the disc.
  Do I need additional items for it or he'll be safe just plug the drive and leave it without screws?

• Satellite Pro A120 - Second hard drive on secondary IDE channel

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A120 xp sp3.
  I tried so it can recognize a 2nd hard drive on the secondary ide channel, but it will not. CD player has been removed and replaced by one of them, the with the pata to sata interface.

  [http://newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_27&produc ts_id = 245]

  The second hard drive is a 500 GB seagate sata drive. Drive is spinning and powered but not appearing is not in the Manager of management or storage device.

  In the Bio (uptodate), it shows me it but won't let me change it.

  The readers of e/s
  Built on the disk HARD = serial ATA port 0
  CD rom = secondary ide (170H - IRQ 15)

  For me, the material is able to support two HARD drives that you remove the cd player, but it seems that the bio is me locking out the deselection of CD-ROM on the second IDE channel.
  Please could someone point me in the right direction to solve this problem.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I read this story carefully and to be honest I m not sure if a second HDD (instead of the STRANGE) can be used

  My knowledge the IDE second controller does support all the ODD (CD/dvd drive) due to different master/slave/c-salt settings.
  I think it's the same case, why the second HDD is not recognized correctly

• Satellite A200-1 s 5 - can I use a second HARD drive and RAID?

  Hi all

  Toshiba Satellite A200-1 s 5 is eligible to add a second hard drive? It has RAID controller as much I know - it might help?

  Thank you
  Denis

  If you have a SATA connector in the second HARD drive Bay, you can use a second HDD. Check it!
  Then you can buy each disc HARD what you want with SATA port.

  The Satellite A200 doesn't have a RAID controller.

• Satellite A350-122 - how to install the second HARD drive?

  Hello

  I'm a french owner of an A350-122 (serial no: 39169719K)

  In the french of the manual user, page 1-5, it is written that it is possible to insert another disc hard, and on page 2-6, the rear of the A350-122 view shows a second branch on the left for a second hard drive.

  So, I bought an SSD Intel X 25-M to put in the second location. I opened the second location and there is nothing: no sata, no power connector connector, only a location empty.

  So, what's the problem with this Satellite A350-122?

  Thank you for your response.

  Hey Buddy,

  I agree with the user above. Not all Satellite A350 models support a second HDD. The point is that laptops are country specific products and this feature is not available everywhere. In addition, all models A350 by using the same notebook case in order to have a crack but no connector.

  In any case, you can use t a second HDD. :(

• Can a second hard drive be added to a Satellite A200-298

  Hello
  I have a Satellite A200-298 which came with a hard drive of 200 GB, I wondered if it was possible for a second hard drive more to be added to help with Itunes that is storage of files and movies.

  Post edited by: Irishdiver

  Hi mate,

  Unfortunately, there may be a second HDD to be added because if your machine has only one disc and then the other drive hard bay would not have an installed hard drive connector.

  I would buy an external hard drive and store my stuff there I was you...

• Second HARD drive is possible on the Satellite A200-1iW?

  possible second hard drive on the Satellite A200 1iW?

  Hello

  Not all models of laptops A200 supports the second HDD.
  If you want you can find very easily if your laptop supports this second HDD.

  At the bottom of the device, you can find the second HARD drive Bay. Remove the cover that protects the Bay and check if there is some HARD drive connectors.

  If not, then the second HDD is not possible

• Second hard drive on Satellite P200

  I have a Satellite P200-1IE with a 200 GB hard drive. And the case has "Colocation", another hard drive, but SATA connectors are not here :(
  I wonder if it is possible to insert the connector to attach the second HD.

  Thanks in advance for the help

  I agree with Joey.
  Toshiba designs and provides models of different laptops with different material specifications.
  All Satellite P200 mobile phones are equipped with a second HARD-drive Bay, but not all supports the interface and the second HARD disk controller.

  It of a bit confusing, but despite a second Bay HARD drive you will not be able to use a second HDD due to a missing on the motherboard disk controller.
