Replacing DVD drive on Satellite 1400

I have laptop Satellite 1400-153. Where are the screws for the DVD drive located please?

To remove the optical disk drive, you must disassemble the whole laptop. The optical disc drive is connected to the motherboard and you need access to the right connector. Unfortunately, maintenance manuals document isn't public document and there is no step by step explanation how to do this.

Google all over the place. Maybe you will find instructions how to proceed.

  • Tecra S3 and the replacement DVD drive

    Hello

    Portable model is Tecra S3 PTS30A-03E008
    DVD disc model is UJ - 832
    DVD player reference number is G8CC0002Q120

    The DVD drive no longer works and I'm looking to install a new one. Is the Toshiba Ultra Slim Bay DVD SuperMulti Drive
    Part number - PA3473U-1DV6 the correct replacement drive?

    Thank you

    Warren

    As I see in the paper manuals for your Tecra s user I can see two optical disk drives are listed as compatible:
    MATSU * A UJDA765
    MATSU * A UJ-832

    Reference numbers are not known to me, but I recommend you to use only compatible devices.

  • Windows 8 doesn't recognize DVD drive on Satellite P775 program-112 - code 19

    I have a Satellite P775 program-112 that was previously under Windows 7.
    This weekend I have upgraded to Windows 8 Pro RTM.

    Following the upgrade, the DVD drive is no longer recognized.

    In Device Manager the drive "POLE * one BD - MLT UJ240EF" is a warning symbol, and the status of the device in the properties is "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ».

    I tried everything I found on the web without success:
    -Reinstall the driver (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/library/cc772156)
    -Find and remove UpperFilters / LowerFilters values in the registry (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060): in my case, they were not present

    I also tried to plug a player of DVD USB of my laptop - it failed with the same status of the device in Device Manager. This suggests the problem is not specific to my hardware DVD.

    Any suggestions welcome!

    Thank you

    Don't have no real experience with Win 8 but from my point of view, it's a Windows system problem that also appears on an another old Windows systems.

    The ODD driver is part of the Windows system (any Windows) so you would not be able to download and install a separate driver.
    I had a similar problem with my old Win Vista laptop.
    Could solve this problem by removing the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager
    I restarted the laptop and the system could install the STRANGE once again without any yellow exclamation point

  • Can't boot from USB/dvd drive on Satellite Pro M10

    Hello

    the broken internal dvd drive, an external USB disk is used. Now I need to reinstall windows on a new hard drive. How can I boot from the external hard drive? (I don't have a floppy drive, but I can't find the right drivers)

    Thank you

    Luke

    Hello

    Don t you need all the drivers for this key USB — because the USB disk is a device integrated on your computer. This means that whenever you connect the diskette drive to your machine, the computer establishes that diskette as a cable internal disk and this is the reason why you won´t need all the drivers.

    It s already installed when you plug it in.

  • Question about DVD drive on Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7

    Although the [Specification | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/productPage.do?service=UK&PRODUCT_ID=131911] told my Sat - Pro A200 (PSAE7) comes with a drive DVD Toshiba, it is * NOT * installed in my machine. I tried to download what is called "dvdpl-20070807102909" (what is the program?) download from Toshiba site, but when I double-click on the "setup.exe" inside the application, Windows Vista says 'cannot install this application.

    I also watched inside the recovery disc that comes with the laptop, but nothing obvious to click to install the drive appears.

    Please what could someone help and tell me how to install this DVD player?

    It s a bit strange
    On the European driver Toshiba page, I could find the Toshiba DVD player software.
    It s version 1.10.06 DVD player
    So I assume it must be preinstalled on the Toshiba laptop.

    The restore CD that came with the laptop contains an image of Toshiba. This image should support Windows OS, all Toshiba driver, utility and software tools extra.
    Please insert the recovery CD into the CD/DVD drive and boot from this CD.

    This procedure will format the whole HARD drive and install the operating system again on the laptop.
    After a new installation, please check if the Toshiba DVD player is available!

    Thank you

    Concerning

    Hey,.

    It is important that you purchase a compatible CD/DVD player because not all readers are compatible with all laptops.

    In your user manual, you will find a list of compatible readers you should check. These discs are pre-tested and will work/adjustment.
    If you're looking for with Google, you will find some online stores where you can buy it I think. An alternative you can also ask a service provider directly, allowed that guys know this drive is compatible:

  • Replace the drive in Satellite L500D 13 c - recommendations

    Hello!

    I plan to replace the HARD drive (5400 RPM) underway with a new, more fast (7200 RPM) HDD in my Toshiba Satellite L500D - 13 c. The question is how much it will improve the overall performance of my laptop.

    The second question is whether it's hard to replace the HARD drive in this notebook. I'm not a great computer, but I'm pretty handy in general so I'm willing to try if this isn't great risk.

    Earlier, I was thinking about upgrading the RAM (from 4 to 8 GB) in the same notebook, but it seems as if there is no support RAM Pentecost 8 GB of capacity. Anyone who has had the same thoughts?

    Any help or thoughts on this is much appreciated.

    See you soon!

    Anders

    Replacing the HARD drive is not problematic and, in my opinion, free for guests, so no risk guarantee valid for laptop for you to avoid. Check the user s manuals document. Maybe you will find a description how to do this.

    My personal opinion is that the HARD drive with a faster HARD drive upgrade is not necessary. HARD drive will be a bit faster but, in my experience, faster hard drives produce more heat too so it can happen that the Briefcase for laptop computer where the HARD drive is placed will be a little warmer than before.

    What is the reason for the upgrade of the HARD drive? Just better performance of the laptop?

  • Replacing hard drive on Satellite M105-S1021

    Hello

    I'm looking to replace the hard drive of my laptop M105-S1021. Unfortunately, the disk hard original died on me packed and is about 6 months ago. I was quoted a couple grand to recover "perhaps" the content (no, I didn't have a backup and Yes, - lesson learned to always back up). I decided not to part with my money.

    This phone is a beast of a machine these days, relatively speaking (past 8 years). However, I don't want especially chuck and I really need for word processing and light Internet use. I do ' t present the boot floppies initial, but thought I would load Ubuntu or Mint as a BONE from a flashdrive (wahey for FREE software!).

    Been sniffing everything on eBay and discovered a true plethora of hard drives 2.5 "SATA. My question is this: do I need to stick with the original HD specifications? I post a picture of the HD but I do not see this feature available for this composer. It is a Hitachi 5v 1. 0a, 80 GB SATA, 5400 RPM HD.

    Of course, I can use another brand than Hitachi, but it needs to have the same input voltage (output? I don't know yet what this number means, but figure it has something to do with the power that there is a "DC" next to him)? Can I use a 7200 RPM to it rather than a 5400 disc? If I want to increase the capacity, can I use, say, a drive of 320 or 500 GB?

    And a question about SATA I vs II and III: I read that SATA II and III are retro-compatible and will slow down themselves if used in a SATA I machine. Is this true? In looking at all the different 2.5 "HDs on eBay and other sites, the connectors seem slightly different - the same, but some have little plastic shields and the extra bits coming out. Asked if SATA ALL connections will be adapted to all SATA computers or if they may have to be slightly modified (not the pins, but surrounding housings or housings).

    Anyway, thanks for any help and advice given.

    > My question is this: do I need to stick with the original HD specifications?
    Not really the important specification are: SATA and size 2.5
    The laptop supports a SATA controller and you use a SATA 2.5 HARD.
    GB size isn t really a key you could use a 100 GB, 250 GB and a 300 GB should not be a big problem.

    > And a question about SATA I vs II and III: I read that SATA II and III are retro-compatible and will slow down themselves if used in a SATA I machine. Is this true?

    Yes

  • Replacing the drive HARD Satellite Pro 4280

    I have a SP 4280 and the original hard drive on it does not have earlier. I bought a Hitachi Travelstar 5K 100 40 GB replacement, but I can't seem to make it work. FDisk recognizes the disc as a 40 GB drive and seems to format the drive. However, attempts to write anything to generate results in an error message "invalid media".

    Installation using XP Pro format the drive gives me an error message in the sense of "Windows cannot format the drive.

    I have attached the drive to my PC via a cable of adapter 2.5 "and it seems to work fine. I also use the latest version of the BIOS on my laptop. It is not the settings of 'cable' rider select and 0/1 on the drive.

    Someone knows what the problem is, or that I couldn't do or have suggestions to raise my drive and running?

    Cheers in advance

    Hello

    Your device was shipped with a 6 GB HARD drive.
    In my opinion, the BIOS has a few problems with the recognition of the HARD drive because of the large size of HARD drive. Unfortunately, I put t see any possibility to solve the problem.

  • Replace my drive HARD satellite A110-252

    Hello.

    I read about the type of hard drive of my laptop, but my problem is WHERE IS THE HARD DRIVE LOCATED in EQUIUM A110-252? I know that it is ussually located where the battery is located but I can't see it.

    Please help me. Thank you very much.

    Hello

    I have the Satellite M70 and it's the same notebook as your Satellite A110. It is so easy to find the HARD drive. When you remove the dough on the bottom, you can see three covers fixed with screws.

    Am I right about that? For me, it makes sense that HDD is under a larger. Cover in the middle is for the RAM, and a smaller must be WLAN Card. Remove cover fixed with three screws and you will have access to the HARD disk.

    Good bye
