• HP ENVY 14 2020NR: need a recommendation for a replacement hard drive

  Greetings,

  I have an a HP ENVY 14 2020NR with a hard drive died. Blue several screens before the new year, did a complete system restore, which seemed to have fixed things. Unfortunately, after 10 days the blue screens are back. The unit is several years old, and my next step is to replace the hard drive. I have all the data backed up elsewhere and ready DVD restore disc.

  Here are the specs of the drive:

  Hitachi disc HARD 7 K 750-750. P/N H2T7501672S.

  I am trying to identify the right replacement hard drive. Looks like it was 750 GB at 7200 RPM. Some choice out there. Can anyone recommend the correct replacement hard drive?

  Thanks in advance!

  Based on the laptop HP ENVY 14 - Maintenance Service Guide, it seems that your computer supports the following readers and more.

  6.35 cm (2.5 in) hard drives (HD) and the SSDS (SSD), 9.5 mm (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in)
  Customer-accessible
  Serial ATA
  Supports the following hard disk configurations:
  ● 750 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 640 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 500 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 320 GB (7200 RPM)

  Supports the following simple SSD drive configurations:
  ● 128 GB mSATA,
  ● 80 GB, mSATA
  ● 160 GB, SATA

  According to the above information, any hard disk 2.5 "SATA or SSD of 9.5 mm and 7.0 mm profile should work fine. This includes the newer readers who are more capacious.

• Cannot install Windows 8 on the replacement hard drive

  I got the replacement from Dell hard drive which he said would come with Windows 8 and pre-installed drivers. Well, I installed the hard drive and he said no. OS can be found. I didn't have a chance to make my own backup discs, but Dell sent a CD Windows 8 recovery media with the laptop and now with the replacement hard drive.

  When you try to install Windows 8 on the new hard drive, I get to the part where it tells me to choose a partition to install Windows 8 on and none of them will not let me. There are 5 to choose from and I don't know what to do to get past this. The largest partition either 5A about 934 GB of space left out of 1 TB, but as I said I can't choose it or one of the other ones for the installation.

  You just have to click on next, in any case, despite the message?  Otherwise:

  Start on the DVD of Windows 8, instead of install now, click repair your computer, Advanced Options, invites ... when it opens, type the following:

  DiskPart
  Select disk 0
  clean

  Then, try to install.

  The above will remove all the data partition and disk, allowing you to do a clean install on an empty drive (these scores are not required, and Windows will create its own partitions (two) he needs to install and run).

• A100 replacement hard drive

  I saw the other posts on this but no definitive answer.
  My HARD drive is dying and needs to be replaced. I see the posotion from the LHS is under the Palm drive and there seems to be one removable flap - other posts say there is only one screw to remove, but there is no visible screws under the machine.

  I've changed hard disks on other Toshibas with absolutetly no problem - someone at - it ideas?

  Hello

  Replace HARD drive on this laptop is not simply the procedure. I'm not 100% sure, but the entire Palm rest/Touchpad should be removed first. HARD drive cover is fixed with a screw, but you'll see him only if the Palm is deleted.

  When this screw is removed, hold the HARD drive tab and pull the HARD drive bracket. Next step is to detach the HARD drive from the HARD drive support.
  The device is quite new and first of all, check if the warranty is still valid.

• Compatible HARD drive need for my Satellite L655 - 1 6

  Hey everybody,

  my 4 year old Satellite L655 1 g 6 has recently had some problems and the hard drive needs to be replaced.
  Does anyone know about a cheap substitute that should not necessarily be the Toshiba?

  I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
  Would be very grateful to hear some opinions/suggestions :)

  -Thanks in advance

  In general you need is of 2.5 HARD drive with connector SATA and these drives, you can find in every store of the computer. Pick up some info on the proposed models, capacities and prices so that you can make a decision that you want to buy.
  > I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
  In my opinion it's the wrong opinion. Using SSD increase you the performance of laptop computer s quickly and were very quick machine. One day if you do not want to use this laptop, you can remove the SSD and put old HDD inside. SSD can be used on the new machine.
  For me, it's the best solution for you.

  Last year I've improved my 4 years old P500 with SSD and I m very happy with it. The price was only 149 Euros. It's OK price. Change the HARD drive is not complicated and you can do it alone.

• Satellite L300D-10 q recovery DVD Can be used on the replacement hard drive?

  Hello

  I was wondering if the DVD Recovery allows to install Vista on a replacement hard drive? The original hard drive is too small at 160 GB contain all the files that I use the virtual operating system image. The disk hard 500 GB of replacement must be large enough for that.

  The reason why I need to Vista, it's that the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Ubuntu 8.04.1 and 8.10, cause the fan to run at full speed all the time which is very annoying. So for the moment I can only use Linux in a virtual machine.

  I intend to stay with Toshiba, though, as my two latest portable Toshiba Satellite a PII and a PIII still work today, and both have had Linux on them.

  Now, back to my story, I intend to remove the existing laptop, hard drive use DVD recovery to install to external USB 500 GB disk, replace the existing hard drive in starting up the laptop from the USB and copy my data overall. Before you reformat the old drive as external storage, I will replace in the laptop with 500 GB drive and the test so I can boot from the new drive.

  Key question will be the change of equipment, i.e. the new hard disk of 500 GB prevent Vista to install or activate?

  Thank you very much

  Vista itself can handle huge HARD drive sizes, but the question is: the recovery disc will be happy with 500 GB? The laptop will recognize 500 GB?

  I think it will work very well, because the new laptops are released with 320 HARD drive. 500 GB is not far.

  Its a few trial and error unless anyone here has tested a disc 500 GB HARD themselves.

• Replacement hard drive for Portege P2010 - part number required

  Can someone tell me what is the part number for a replacement hard drive for Portege P2010 is? It has the latest version of the BIOS installed, if the capacity of the HARD disk can be greater than the original 30gig?

  Thank you

  Martin

  Hello Martin

  Unfortunately I was found no specific information. If I'm right, this unit needs 1.9 HDD and I think it can be much more expensive as 2.5 standard.

  Check it please this page http://www.laptopbits.co.uk/Database_files/Toshiba_Portege_2000_and_2010_series_spares.htm
  You will find a few pieces of upgrade for your device.

  Good bye

• 20-d113w want to: replacement hard drive

  Hi, I looked around the Board for instructions on replacing hard drive. I intend to replace the original sata drive 1 TB with a seagate 1 TB sata3 drive. I know this is probably a stupid question, but just installing the new drive and run the recovery software, or something must be done again disc before I run the software. Thanks for any help you can give

  If you reinstall from the recovery discs set, it will not make a difference.  If you use a cloning software, it may depend on the package.  If you need to reinstall using a Windows disk, it should be able to themselves deploy by asking the user questions.

• Question of replacement hard drive HP s3720y

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion Slimline s3720y with Windows Vista installed.  My hard drive needs to be replaced and I have a Seagate Barracuda 7200.11.  Will this work with my computer?  My plan is to restore my computer to the new hard drive with the system restore disks and then upgrade to Windows 8.  Are there compatibility problems?  Thank you very much for your help!

  Hello:

  If the replacement of the hard disk you have is less than 2 TB and has a SATA interface, then it should work fine.

  Regarding the W8, it is difficult to say whether or not it will work normally on your PC.

  You can go to download W8 and before you actually buy it, he runs a check of compatibility on your PC.

  Even if it passes there is no guarantee that the system will work.

  There is no drivers for W8 on the assumption of your PC and driver page, so the upgrade will be risked.

• replacement hard drive and using recovery discs made by myself.

  HPdv6 mobile 2119tx. After replacing hard drive and loading the recovery discs (which I did) successfully, now it reboot something messages cannot locate the disc or load bootable disc (sorry, don't remember the exact wording, but back to the beginning). Could this be because I replaced a 650 GB drive with a 500 GB drive.

  Hello:

  Normally you cannot use recovery on a smaller hard disks.

  But you should be able to boot from the first disc of recovery at least and see what happens.

  To do this, you must have the first disc in your dvd player.

  Restart the PC and at the beginning of your homescreen HP, tap key ESC then choose one time start in the menu.  Since then, select the DVD drive and continue.

  If the ESC key method does not work, press the F9 key instead.

  It depends on the type of BIOS in your PC (normally according to his age) which key you need to type.

• 1260 US G7: replacement hard drive HP g7 1260us with Home Premium Windows 7 (64-bit) now lost for a start to the top

  Received under member declaration of support in his last paragraph, but only gives not the link still since I wasn't not answer you immediately... does anyone have this link noted below for me to go and burn a DVD.

  (I thought when I downloaded my files on a USB flash drive before you recover he would have windows 7 on it, but when I tried the new replacement hard drive I get: no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key.)  When I read the files on the USB stick on another computer, it reads:

  FBData 12/12/2014 of the folder - file

  language of the file folder 12/12/2014

  _______________________________________________________________________________________________

  In any event, at least, we can connect you to an official Microsoft Windows 7 disc download, which you can use to put Windows 7 on the computer and with some drivers from this site, we can get you going again. You'll need another computer with internet access and a DVD burner or another flash drive.

  The key must rely on the label inside the battery bay or your laptop.

  I think that what you did was copy the program to restore the laptop computer files. Actually let Recovery Manager do the recovery media by running the Recovery Manager program.

• 15 - r174ca: replacement hard drive

  Hey guys, I'm not good with this part pick up stuff so I hope you can help out me. I got this laptop from my cousin, so I'm not completely sure of what I am working with

  My hard drive failed on my laptop:

  http://support.HP.com/VN-en/document/c04496301

  http://www.BestBuy.ca/en-CA/product/Hewlett-Packard-HP-15-6-laptop-stone-silver-Intel-Core-i5-4210u-...

  I'm not entirely sure which hard drive to replace it with so any info would be helpful. The only thing I'm certain of is the 5400 RPM.

  Also, if someone could recommend some items online / in-store (Canada), which are at a good price for their performance features, it would be appreciated

  Thanks in advance

  You must understand that the replacement hard drive you must remove the entire lid and jeopardizes security:

  Your repair manuals

  See pages 53-59.

  As long as you do successfully the replacement, HP will honor still guarantee, however. Just be careful in here.

  You can use any 2.5 inches wide and 9.5 or 7 mm thick hard SATA or SSD.

  the 5400 RPM drives are a significant bottleneck, so in my mind you want to get at least a 7200 RPM hard drive and you really want to get a SSD drive if the budget allows.

• Dv6-7202se replacement HARD drive

  Hi, I want to buy a replacement for my DV6-7202se HARD drive. originally, I have a 1 TB running at 5400 RPM SATA HARD drive. I am running Windows 8.1.

  My laptop is now out of its original 1 year warranty.

  (1) is it possible for me to go to a larger, faster HARD drive?

  (2) my laptop was purchased in the UNITED Arab Emirates. Where can I find the replacement HARD drive here?

  (3) my current HARD drive has a number of specific product? The official site of HP can't give me that and continues to throw messages 'no information found.

  (4) where will I get the recovery disks to reinstall the operating system on it? He came originally with Windows 8, I upgraded to 8.1.

  Thank you!

  You can certainly get a faster drive, but I think that the biggest readers available now 1.5 TB laptop and they all work at 5400 RPM. Here is your Service Manual:

  Manual

  One option you have is to install an accelerator reader WSSD/mSATA cache to speed up the slower drive. The problem on your model, it is very difficult to get to the slot of the WSSD. It is not in the Bay of accessible customer service.

  To speed up the system even more, you can install an SSD expand instead of the ordinary reader, but the largest SSD drive is a 1 to.

  Where you can get all this material in the UAE, I have no idea. I guess you can get things shipped from Europe, Asia and the United States

  In regards to the operating system, unless it does not turn right you can clone (copy bit for little) the old drive and transfer the image to the new, or we can get you a link to download an image of disk for Windows 8, which can be installed on any hard drive. The License Code is embedded in the BIOS of your motherboard, so you just need to install it and Windows will activate automatically.

  Post back if one of these options looks interesting and we can assist in its application.

• Replacement hard drive after the failure of the HD, restore disc problem

  
  

  The replacement hard drive should be the same capacity as the original hard drive.

  If your goal is to use a SSD, then you will need to migrate the operating system with a working operating system software cloning.

  Samsung, Corsair and other manufacturers sell kits of migration with usb connectors SATA that allow the cloning process work perfectly from a hard disk inherited a smaller SSD.
