  • Is guaranteed replacement HDD on Satellite L50 series

    Hello world
    I'm trying to discover, weather the HARD drive in the L50 series satellite s a CRU or whether to replace the HARD drive would be voiding the warranty.

    Here, I would just use the SSD to my old notebook instead of the common snaildrive.
    Could you give me some advice on this?
    Thank you very much.

    L50 - A as well as the Satellite L50 - B satellite contains not a single HARD drive with separate access Bay...

    This means that the entire bottom plastic cover must be removed to gain access to the HARD drive as memory modules... and this will void the warranty...

    You will find instruction how to remove the ODD on the L50 - B series

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Replacement of HDD on Satellite L670D - 13H

    Hello

    I plan to replace my internal with a new HD like mine has a lot of bad sector and this force reinstall me my system every two months (bad sectors seems to be located on the C partition where Windows system)

    the current disc is a MK5065GSX, which is hard to find. This is why I would like to know what HD I could buy instead of this model that can be mounted in my laptop.

    My main problem is I want to make sure that I can still use my recovery DVD with my new HD.

    I saw the MK6465GSX is available for sale, but the size is slightly larger than my current one (640 GB instead of 500 GB). I need to buy HD with the same size as my only original so that the recovery work?

    Thanks in advance for your answers

    > So I want to know what HD I could buy instead of this model that can be mounted in my laptop.

    You n t need to buy exactly the same HARD disk that was built in the L670.
    You can use the other HARD disk, but you should pay attention to the the HARD disk controller.
    You need a SATA 2.5 HARD.

    Given that the SATA controller must manage any size of HARD drive, you can also use a 640GO.

    As I understood your message; you want to put the current HARD drive in the Bay ODD (optical disc), then a new SSD drive in the HARD drive Bay.
    Is this right?

    Well, first of all it s a good idea to replace the HARD drive with SSD drive. You will definitely get a boost huge performance. I did these updates in the past, and my laptop runs a lot faster.

    Now back to the question on the use of the HARD drive instead of driving ODD.
    I put t know if it will be possible since the laptop does not support the special feature of selection-Bay.
    In the past, some other laptops Toshiba Tecra and Portege series supported these updates but I'm not very well on laptops Satellite m.

    So in the worst case the HARD disk will not be recognized in the ODD Bay

  • Satellite L50 - A-1 DG - with the new SSD HARD drive replacement

    Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG

    I would put my SSD in the PC and install win7 on it. But it does not work.

    I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

    I tried to replace the SSD hard drive. Then the pc cannot start up. And I can't get into the bios or adjustment.

    Someone knows what's the problem?

    > I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

    This does not work with all models of laptops.
    As far as I know that the laptop must support Slim Select Bay and the BIOS should also support this hardware option. But in your case, it doesn t.

    One possible solution is the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk.

    You said that you are not able to access the BIOS after these updates.
    Well, before you do this (a SSD drive connection) you should access the BIOS and must disable secure boot and must set the start mode MSC mode.

    The comments appreciated.

  • Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM - how to replace the memory module?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 B - 1 HM, product number: PSKTAE 072017CE. It has 8 GB of RAM but is expandable to 16 GB.

    My question is, should I buy a 8 GB memory module? (and I would add up to 16 GB).
    Or should I buy a 16 GB memory module to completely replace the memory of 8 GB?

    Memory 8 GB Toshba module I've found is the following: P000577360

    Thanks in advance

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Googling around, I found also specification for your model of laptop and if I understand it is just your machine can be upgraded up to 16 GB for you can use 2x8GB.

    Compatible 8 GB of RAM for your machine has PA5104U-1M8G part number.

    I n t have this model of laptop, so I put t know if there is coverage of RAM placed on the lower side of your laptop. If this isn't the case, RAM could be placed under the keyboard so RAM upgrade must be performed by the Toshiba service provider. Removal of material or to open the case of the laptop on your own is the warranty.

    Be careful about this.

  • Replace the Qualcomm Atheros ar956x in Satellite L50 - B

    Hi all

    I am wanting to change the existing WiFi card in our Satellite L50 - B (Qualcomm Atheros ar956x) due to the limitation of speed of connection 150 Mbps! We have a router AC and I move 800 Mbps!

    I was hoping to use an Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 however the cards seem to be physically different.

    Any ideas would be great!

    see you soon

    Scott

    Hello

    Found some details about this Intel WLan card on the page of Intel:
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/75439/Intel-dual-band-wireless-AC-7260

    + Board form factor: half a PCIe card Mini / m2 (NGFF).

    As far as I know the WLan module that is built into the laptop supports Mini-PCI card format.
    So, you have a miniPCI module.
    But you should consider BIOS support. Not all wireless network cards could be supported by the BIOS.

  • Satellite L50 and SSD - performance problem

    Hello

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L50-A-1EH and the first thing I did was to replace the hard drive with an SSD.
    Initially the SSD is not recognized by the BIOS, like many other users across the Internet reported as well.

    To prove this statement here are other people having the same problem, and people have tried different SSD.

    Link: [1st edition SSD | http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/General-Troubleshooting/E45t-cant-detect-Samsung-840-pro-SSD/td-p/503785]
    Link: [2nd edition SSD | http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/General-Troubleshooting/Switching-HDD-to-SSD-on-Satellite-S55-A5176-Problem/td-p/590778]

    The problem can be solved by changing a setting in the BIOS.

    [The SATA interface parameter] [enforcement] to [battery life].

    However, this workaround solution comes with a cost, which is performance.
    The SSD is able to transfer files at a speed of 500 MB/s.

    However, in this mode the SSD transfers files at 133 MB/s.
    I lose 4 x the speed of the SSD.

    In my view this problem in the BIOS.

    Can someone help me solve this problem?

    With sincere friendships.
    Arthur BOULELLI.

    I also discovered today that is not serious if I am running in mode UEFI BIOS (CSM).

    Combined with AHCI BIOS mode it takes [parameter] Interface SATA for battery life, otherwise the SSD is not recognized.

    The Toshiba using the latest firmware (to July 23, 2014), which is v1.70.
    The SSD is a Samsung 840 Evo and has the latest firmware, which is EXT0BB6Q.

    Given that the SATA interface is set to battery life, the SATA interface is set to SATA1, who of course tops out at 133 MB/s.

    For me, it is simply amazing that a laptop with a Core i7-4700MQ the year 2014 cannot detect an SSD SATA3.

    Does anyone have a suggestion how to fix this?

  • Satellite L50 - A-1 DG - memory upgrade

    Hello
    I have Toshiba Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG with 4 GB and I have questions:
    (1) I want to update. Could add 8 GB of crucial (http://www.crucial.fr/eu/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=92951A9AA5CA7304) to an existing 4?
    (2) if I replace the HDD with a SSD do you know if it will be possible to connect very quickly as with a ultrabook (spec intel)?

    Thanks for your help

    Vince

    According to the specifications of the laptop it has 4 RAM slots and can be upgraded up to 32 GB of RAM.
    Rams compatible are:
    4 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M4G
    8 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M8G

    I advise you to buy high-quality Kingston modules and you will be safe from the 100% compatibility.

    With SSD I think that there is no problem at all. I upgraded my laptop older and it works perfectly.
    Which would you buy?

  • Satellite L50-B-1WF - IDE oucederomsurlesecondport mSATA SSD?

    Dear Toshiba

    I wonder, is the Satellite L50-B-1WF has its IDE oucederomsurlesecondport mSata SSD? Some product sites request this. Or y at - it no mSata on this series either?

    Second question: can I install a slim line internal drive BlueRay on it, instead of a DVD player?

    The L50-B-1WF Satellite was equipped with the 256GB MSATA SSD that is connected to the controller SATA using a Committee of Exchange.

    Second question: can I install a slim line internal drive BlueRay on it, instead of a DVD player?

    I don't think as much I know this unit (or model) does not support slim select Bay feature.
    But this is only my personal opinion because I never tested this extension on common laptop... but I used this slim select Bay adapter on my old laptop Portege... but this device support this feature... While it was possible to replace the STRANGE with a second HDD
