Replacement of HDD on A6560T

One of my hard drives has been damage while moving to a new city.  I have a HP Pavilion a6560t pc, with a bigger PSU and a graphics card latest card and I was looking at this the new disc - hard

""Toshiba 2 TB internal hard drive - 3.5"size, SATA III 6 Gb/s, 7 200 rpm, 64MB buffer - HDKPC09.

I don't know if it will really suit to work with my pc.  I just need to replace one of the hard drives.  I know that my pc has a SATA, but SATA III interface?  I don't really know what that means.  Thanks in advance!

The player will be compatible with your system. It will be operated to plug Sata to your system, but the 64 MB cache will give your system a little better performance.

  • Guide: replace the HDD with SSD, Lenovo Y480

    Lenovo
    That's how I replaced my HDD with a SSD in my Lenovo Y480. I did it immediately, so there is no user file to consider. I used a key from Lenovo recovery. Read this guide in its entirety before starting.

    Execution time: about an hour.

    Items, you will need:

    -Y480 Lenovo

    -New SSD (I chose a Mushkin Chronos Deluxe because my research lead me to conclude that it is the best available from June 2012)

    -Small Phillips screwdriver

    -Butter knife or similar to remove the HARD drive. There is not much space for your fingers in there.

    -DVD-r blank

    Step 1

    Turn on the computer.

    Step 2

    Write the number '1' on a blank DVD-R and insert into the optical drive.

    Step 3

    Press the small button just to the right of the power button. This launches a recovery key.

    Step 4

    Follow the instructions on the screen to make restore disks. I chose the factory restore option, which required three DVD - Rs. label each disc with numbers to let you know in what order to use them later. Once it is finished, place back #1 DVD into the optical drive.

    Step 5

    Physically remove the hard drive and insert the SSD drive by following the instructions below.

    1. turn off and unplug your computer, flip upside down.
    2. remove the battery.
    3. remove the access panel by removing the two screws and slide.
    4. remove the two screws that hold the hard drive carrier.
    5 remove the hard drive by lifting upward. There is a right angle SATA adapter plugged into the hard drive. This card just came out with the hard drive.
    6 disconnect the hard drive adapter and plug it on the SSD.
    7 unscrew the hard drive bracket and screw it on the SSD.
    8 put the SSD drive in the Bay, screw the support down and replace the access panel. Be sure to screw it up.
    9. replace the battery, lock.

    Step 6

    If you did not already the first recovery DVD in the optical drive, use a paper clip to open the optical drive and insert the diskette. Close the drawer, then turn on the computer to start the restoration.

    Step 7

    Select the boot drive by pressing F12 when you see the Lenovo logo during startup, and then select the optical/DVD drive in the list.

    Step 8

    Follow the instructions on the screen. The first time that I did, restoration impossible immediately, probably because of a missing partition. However, after restarting the computer by performing a battery pull, then continue to step 6 restore completed successfully.

    I have not compared this drive, but I can tell you that the Windows experience index is 7.9 and startup time is 24 seconds now. The base index is 6.8 for this system now.

    You will find that Windows has already helped TRIM. However, regular defragmentattion was still on. I think that the system restore has been disabled automatically.

    Good luck

    Matt

    I saw no option for this, and I was quite surprised, that he didn't do it automatically. I'm not an expert on everything, so what follows is a guess.

    Perhaps that if you create a partition on the SSD first, recovery will recognize and use it.

    Hello

    There are two parts: hardware and software. For hardware, it will take 5 to 10 minutes, but for the software that can take several hours, days or even weeks. To shorten the task of software, my suggesion: order the recovery disks on HP and put your machine into factory settings. You can continue from there.

  • Windows cannot be installed after replacement Toshiba HDD

    I installed Windows 7 (and Windows XP) on my laptop A42F, another manufacturer, using a DVD without problem and was used for about 18 months.

    Last week TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050 hard drive has failed and it turns out the disc has been damaged.

    I managed to save most of my data and the hard drive has been replaced by a NEW and similar (TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050) hard disk.

    Using the same DVD as the previous time I can't install windows more. I also tried other CD and DVD that worked before on other PCs and this laptop.

    I tried to install with or without created partitions.

    When booting from a CD / DVD to install Windows, it starts to load files quickly. About 80 percent, it slows down a lot and finally a page with a message (the note below is not the EXACT text):
    Windows has encountered a problem during communication with a device
    .........
    ... contact the hardware manufacturer
    Status: 0xc00000e9
    Information: unexpected IO error

    It is possible to boot from the CD and run MiniXp (or linux) and write about your new TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050 hard drive.

    My questions:
    (a) any suggestion plausible why I can't install?
    (b) has anyone seen this before?
    (c) what can I do to solve the problem?

    Any help will be appreciated

    Hi Jack

    I think it's a bad place to ask for help, even if you have replaced the HARD precedent with the Toshiba HDD drive.
    For me, it is not a HARD drive problem.

    In my view if s notebook BIOS recognizes the HARD drive correctly, then you should be able to install the system on this new HARD drive. But according to your material, some additional drivers (perhaps the drivers SATA) would be necessary, but it should be clarified with the support of laptop manufacturer.

    I think you should get in touch with the manufacturer for laptop support in order to get more details on possible solutions

  • Replacement of HDD on Satellite U840-10R

    Hello

    I currently have a problem on my computer (Satellite U840 - 10R Reference: PSU4WE-00E017FR).

    The SSD (32 GB) from my hard drive part seems to be broken. I can't activate the SSD feature in the Intel software or I am in big trouble, so I disabled it. However, I can still use my computer because the part of the HARD drive (500 GB) is ok and the system.

    My question: is it possible to take all the drive of my computer and put a new SSD a place?

    How is it? This is similar to a 2.5 HDD classic?

    Would what kind of interface I find him inside? (Sata 3?)

    Thank you

    I don't know how old is your machine, but if the warranty is still valid I think you should contact Toshiba service and ask for replacement. Warranty will cover the costs.

    In any case, this 32 GB SSD's with mSATA type slot multi-level (MLC) cell. On Google you can see what it looks like. Generally, replacement should not be problematic but if don't have experience with computer laptop disassembly you shouldn't do it alone.

    Is that SSD is placed directly under the lid and place between RAM and WLAN card.

    Below is the basic information, but I can't find more information about it. Polish same technical support is not able to give me the answer. So, I would like to ask if there is someone who has replaced the HARD drive in this book and what type of HARD drive I can buy?

    Andrew

    You will not be able to find answers to these questions and Toshiba doesn't offer the database page or support for certain models of laptops with a list of all compatible parts.

    If your laptop's SATA HDD theoretically there should be no problem to use 500 GB HARD drive.
    It is: so it must be exactly 500 GB?

  • How to replace the HDD on Satellite 1130?

    How to replace the hard drive in this notebook?

    Hello

    If I remember well HDD is under the optical media drive. Optical media drive is fixed with a screw that you see above the player. Remove the screw and remove the drive from the Bay.

    HARD drive is fixed, I think, 4 screws (probably black). When the screws are removed you can use two fingers to remove the HDD from the connector plug. I hope you now know how to put the new HARD drive.

    Good bye

  • Replacement of HDD on the Satellite A100-644

    (Amsterdam)

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop's SATA HDD inside. So everything you need to do is to buy a SATA HDD.
    Theoretically, you can use more HARD drive capacity of 120 GB.
    I have updated more older M70 with 250 GB SATA HDD and everything was OK.

    So, check prices and buy new HARD drive. I recommend one with 200 GB. It should be enough, isn t it?

  • Configuration problem of Windows after replacement of HDD on Satellite C650

    Just replaced 250 gig hdd on tosh c650 with a 500 GB hitachi hard drive, reinstalled windows 7 on a tosh disk recovery and get implemented windows could not configure windows to run on this computer material followed by windows could not complete the installation message.

    Tried reloading windows two times, no joy. I'm not that computer savy if someone could help me sort or the disc is not compatible?
    Thank you

    Usually, you should be able to use the recovery disk to install the Toshiba on another HDD image

    But in my experience there is sometimes a problem using this recovery disk if the new HARD disk drive has a different storage size.

    One of the reasons that could come from this format of HARD drive recovery disk and create new partitions. The defined recovery disk HARD drive to factory settings and creates the same partitions that were available on the old HDD.

    If this is the reason for this problem, I advise to use the Microsoft Windows disk rather than the Toshiba recovery disc.

  • Satellite L40 - replacement of HDD of 80 GB with SSD-disk hard

    Toshiba L40 Series (4.5 year old computer): HARD disk replacement

    Toshiba Satellite Pro: L40

    Intel Celeron: 540 (1.86 GHz)
    1 GB of ram
    Drive hard 80 GB
    32-bit Windows Vista Home Basic
    (Over four years)

    Looking across the net, but can't find any information on this advice - has
    It is hoped that someone had done a similar job. I know that the HDD in
    This machine supports the SATA drives, but I don't know if the motherboard
    supports several types of SATA drives. I have read several topics on
    users who have bought an SSD for the replacement of the old HARD disk in
    the laptop - just to find out that the motherboard did was too old and has not been
    compatible with SSDS. Even if the motherboard supports some types
    SSDS, this is no guarantee that it will work with the purchased SSD.

    The SSD I think to buy, will be one of them:

    Corsair SSD Force Series 120GB 2.5 GT "
    SATA 6 Gb/s (SATA3.0), 555MB / 515 MB/s write 85 k IOPS (4 k aligned), w/support

    or this one:

    Corsair SSD Force Series 3 120 GB 2.5 "
    SATA 6 Gb/s (SATA3.0), 550MO/510 MB/s read/write,® SandForce SF-2281

    (the first is the better of the two SSD drives, but the last of them has
    SandForce integrated, which (from what I've read) is preferred with
    old computers when upgrading for SSDS).

    If someone could give me some info on this topic, I would be
    very grateful!

    It is always problematic to be around some old piece of newer hardware standards and technology. I n t have this old Satellite but my friend had it.

    Satellite L40's old laptop budget very simply the hardware configuration, so I think that you will not be able to use newest SSDS to this topic.

    I really hope someone else can post a positive experience on these updates. What you can try is to contact nearest Toshiba service provide by phone and ask for some advice. They have exact specifications for laptop and, I hope, can help you with this.

    By the way: I put t know what is the reason for these updates? More performance, more low composition of power or something else?

  • Suggestion for replacement of HDD on my dv7t-CTO

    My laptop is now about 3 years old and works ok, but my 250 GB hard drive is too full, despite deleting and archiving of photos, music, etc.

    I would like suggestions as to what size of disk hard I should think to (I think a 1 TB) but am open to suggestions.  I've never done it by myself, but am pretty tech savvy and will have my full hd saved so I can just do a restore when the new hard drive was installed.

    Is this what I should that knowledge/think about it before trying it by myself?

    Thanks for the suggestions - I ended up going with a little less storage and went with the 750 GB WD Scorpio Black 7200 RPM. I replaced my drive yesterday all by myself after watching a training video on YouTube and then even discovered how to partition my new HDD after the fact...

    Proud of me - it was really quite easy!

  • Need help to replace my HDD - what to do I get?

    I need to replace my hard drive and I was wondering what I should look to buy one?

    I have a HP Pavilion g6.  I would like to get more information, but I am unable to lift things right now and can't get my laptop.

    I see different sizes (2.5 "and 3.5"), GB in size. RPM, etc.  On another issue recommended a 750 GB 2.5 "7500 RPM.  What is a fairly standard size that fits most?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Product name/model number?

    2.5 "is the standard for the laptop.
    They come in 7mm, 9.5 mm, thickness 12.5 mm - you have to go through the manual for which all combinations of your system. But 9.5 mm is the standard generally.
    12.5 mm is rare.

    Size GB depends on the compatibility of your product, I want the product number so that I could look at the manual,

    TR/MIN-if you intend to buy a new, 7200 RPM drive HARD is a good, you get a decent slowy speed 5400 RPM

    If you are hoping to get a dramatic improvement in performance, Solid State Drive (SSD) is the one to look out for.
    But do not know if it will be compatible with your system

    If 750GB SATA HDD is recommended earlier, I think that SSD would be also compatible.

    Thank you

  • Replace the HDD with SSD boot disk and use the disk HARD now as secondary storage

    I would like to replace my dv7 - 6143cl HDD with a SSD boot drive and using the OEM HARD drive as secondary storage.

    I have the SSD and the caddy

    I need to:

    delete the original OEM HD

    Install the SSD

    install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

    Install Win 7 (I don't have install disks - what is on the HARD drive in his backup partition)

    or I have to

    delete this HD

    Install the SSD

    go into the BIOS, and then assign him drive in AHCI (etc.)

    Install Win 7

    install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

    etc.

    I want to dual-boot, if possible, but I think that the second HD (start-up disk) does not start, even if I change the settings in the BIOS

    is this true?

    Pavilion dv7 - 6143cl

    I7

    8Gb

    Win7 (64)

    Thank you very much

    Hello:

    Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

    If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

    If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

    I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

    So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

    To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • E5-432: replace the HDD with SDS

    I of the E5 Aspire-432, that come stock with a 500 GB HDD, I would like to exchange for a SDS in the future. I found not yet no info via Google or this forum.

    Anyone has any info on this? Is there an available maintenance manual detailing how to replace the HARD drive in the e5-432?

    Would be-I just need to clone the HDD to the SDS, the Exchange and start?

    Thanks for any info

    UPDATE: I just did the swap HDD/SDD in the Aspire E5-432. It is very easy to do.

    It starts now less than 15 seconds. Much snappier.

    Prepare the SDS:

    1 installation Drive Clone or as software

    2 connect the SDS, via USB and to clone the HDD to SDS - cloning took about 1 1/2 hours with a USB2 cable

    Note: leaving the size of the partition that DriveClone wouldn not (not enough message space), I reduced the main partition of about 400 MB and everything went well

    Remove the HARD drive:

    1. power off the laptop, remove all the screws from the bottom and crack open

    2. a screw holds the HARD drive in case tray, remove

    3. a screw holds the USB/audio jack PCB, remove it

    4. on the audio jack USB PCB, lift the lever to release for USB/audio cable

    5. on the motherboard, raise the white lever for USB/audio cable that is stuck on the plateau of HARD drive

    6. remove the taking USB/audio PCB and right speaker held in place with eyelets pink silicone

    7. slide the HARD drive to the right tray, can he get out of it

    8. remove the 2 screws from the HARD drive tray

    9 FLEX tray by pressing the top middle holding the sides, push the HARD drive from the open side. Trying to force the HARD drive does not work out with tools

    Do the reverse steps to put SDS in, reboot, enjoy!

    Worth it!
