Satellite 1805-S253: HARD drive which is supported?

I had a Satellite 1805-S253 (year 2002), I need to replace the hard drive (the original is 15 GB). I want to put it on a 80 GB HD. I couldn't find any information on Toshiba Help Desk.
Any body please tell me if this is possible.
Thank you.

The 1805-S253 Sat is a laptop to US for the American market.
Satellite 1800 series is the same, and must support the same hardware specifications.
I searched this forum for threads on the same topic and found these:

It seems that you might be able to use 40 GB but if you want to use 80 GB you should test if before.

  • Satellite P20 upgrade hard drive

    I have a 20 P with 60 GB hard drive, which fills up quickly.
    Can I switch to one of the largest new HD such as

    Toshiba 100 GB MK1032GAX?

    I also guess that my standard would be IDE and I can't use S - Ata?
    The BIOs supports this size of HD?

    Thanks, Birgit (starting the computer)

    Hi, Birgit

    As far as I know just newer models of laptops have 100 GB hard drives. I had last year to P20. Nice unit.

    In my view there should not be any problems but of course try to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner in your country. They have experience with the hardware upgrade.

    Please let us know if the upgrade will be successful.

    Thank you

  • What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a pavilion d4790y desktop computer?

    What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a desktop pavilion d4790y?

    It would be a secondary drive, not the boot drive.

    The operating system is Vista Home Premium, 32-bit.  The version of the BIOS is 5.08.

    Are there any changes or upgrades that would allow an internal hard drive 3 TB to install?

    Here are the specifications and configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion d4790y and here are the specifications of its card mother P5BW - THE (Basswood2). Based on the specifications and the age of the computer, I would expect you to use a hard drive 3 TB as a secondary drive on Windows Vista (DISPLACEMENT SP1 or SP2) and Windows 7. Formatted as MBR would require the drive to use with a minimum of two partitions. Formatted as GPT would require only a single partition. In no case will you be able to use the 3 TB as a boot device drive because your computer does not support a UEFI BIOS that allows booting from a GPT formatted disk. No changes or updated should be held.

  • Re: Satellite M30: error HARD drive-> 40 GB HDD modified with a 250 GB = 137 GB HARD drive?

    Hi all
    I have a problem with my laptop M30-241 and the new hard drive.

    After an error with my old 40 GB HARD drive, I changed HDD WD 2500BEVE 250 GB.

    The correct name of the HARD drive in the bios Setup.
    My bios version is 1.7 but only 137 GB of available space.

    I searched for a new version of the bios, but without success.

    Maybe someone can give me an opinion/advice?

    Best regards
    D.a.

    Perhaps the BIOS doesn't support the 250 GB HDD it is possible given that not all HARD drive sizes are supported!
    I think that the update of the BIOS (if possible) would not solve this too.

    I have problems with anchors named in my htm file.

What should I do to change it?  I use DreamWeaver 2004 on a PC.

    You will need to correct the links that begin with "file".

    Now that your site has been defined, you just delete the bad links and DW left write the good ones for you.

    Click on the yellow folder on the property inspector, and then select the target page.

    If your site is small, you can edit the links manually (remove the part in red)

    It would be useful that post you your code on the page so that we can see if you use the old technique or new for these links.

    Recovery of DNG issue: I have photos stored on an external hard drive which have previously been imported into Lightroom and converted to DNG.  The laptop on which I was running Lightroom died and I had to replace the hard drive and rebuild the computer.  In the process of my Lightroom program and catalog related to these images have been lost.  When I re-associate these photos with my new installation of Lightroom and a new catalogue is there a way to retrieve the keywords or other changes or metadata catalogue Mountaga?  Is any of this information embedded with the imge DNG file or was it only in the cataloght lost on my failing hard drive? I re-import just as if it were new images with no prior treatment of Lightroom?

    By default, LR saves all changes in the catalog, and that applies to any type of file.

    Optionally, you can save changes to the file as well, for raw files owners, this will create a xmp file - for DNG that changes are going to be cooked in the file, without additional xmp file.

    But it does not default. Go to the catalog and parameters under the control of metadata automatically save changes to XMP.

    Unless you do this, the changes are saved only in the catalog.

    Hope this makes things clearer.

    Here's my problem. I changed the Sata AHCI RAID mode I could create a partition then my Windows 7 downloaded CD Windows 7... my CD of drivers dell drivers, but now I'm unable to use my system restore CD to restore like I always do when I have a problem. When I changed the sata mode to AHIC on load it says (lack of operating system)

    Large. I am pleased that my DBAN guide has helped you.

    Now that you are on the factory settings, I advise Dell DataSafe Local Backup uninstall and upgrade to the latest version of Dell backup and restoration which has many bugs/improvements, including the ability to restore to another hard drive which is useful in case the hard disk fails in the future or you decide to upgrade later to an SSD. The XPS 8300 running perfectly with a SSD, I have mine put in place with one. Then you can create a Rescue Disk (external hard drive Bootable) or Backup factory (Bootable USB Flash Drive) that will be promoted the recovery compared to the facts media with Dell DataSafe Local Backup. See here for more details:

    Note This is not a UEFI BIOS (he missed just out on the passage to the UEFI) but may start from an external hard drive.

  • This hard drive is not supported by Dell

    I have Dell PowerEdge 2900 with 5 SAS drives in a massive RAID. All five disks SEAGATE ST373355SS 73 Gb. a few days ago one of those readers start flashing orange LED on the front of the server and also to make the mechanical noise. I do not have the same disks and I was remove the defect of the disc and insert SEAGATE ST3146356SS 146 GB. After installing a new disk in my server Hi flashes green LED power and data reading. This means that everything is ok, works salvation! Then I launch Dell PowerEdge Ver.2.9 diagnosis and saw a status of this discs - this hard drive is not supported by Dell.
    Can someone told me there is a problem or not and how to fix it?

    Dell uses the 'standard' of different sellers drive models, but the manufacturers loading a custom firmware on the Dell drives certified to work seamlessly with Dell controllers. Dell firmware update will not work on non Dell readers, even if it's for the exact model.

  • Satellite 1805-S253: How can I replace the HARD drive?

    Anyone know where I can find a manual installation to install the new hard drive? Recently bought a new drive hard, but don't can't find how can I change drive.
    TKS.

    Hello

    As far as I know the HARD drive is placed on the right side of the laptop.
    I think it's on the same side where the reader is placed.

    1. turn the computer.
    2. remove the screw of the cover of the HDD location and remove the cover.
    3. remove the screws fixing the HARD drive ASSY.
    4. hold the HARD drive door handle and remove the drive HARD ASSY.
    5. remove the screws that attach the HARD drive.
    6 detach the HARD drive from the HARD drive support.

  • How to install Win 8 on Satellite C850 after HARD drive failure?

    I have a PC repair business and a customer gave me a portable Satellite C850-1 kN which took a catastrophic hard disk failure (just clicking from the road).

    I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a DVD 8 Windows, changing the order of startup in the bios, however, it still gives an error message "no boot device."

    I see no way to turn off boot UEFI, it appears grayed out in the configuration of the bios.

    How can I reinstall Windows on this laptop?

    First, you must know that the (CSM/UEFI mode) parameter must be changed if you want to install the system supported UEFI not (Win 7 and higher).
    Win 8 and 8.1 Win are UEFI capable systems and you should be able to use the option to UEFI mode.

    What about the secure boot option?
    Have you found and have you tried to disable this option?

  • Satellite P25-S507 - HARD drive replacement

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P25-S507, which more is under warranty and has begun to report S.M.A.R.T. errors.

    SmartMonitor reports a lot of questions especially marked as old age so I need to replace the disk. I was wondering if I can replace it with any standard 2.5 "ATA as an ATA-100 player. as the disk of 60 GB specification is ATA - 5.

    Any help appreciated.

    Maybe no one has replaced the HARD drive on this laptop because it s Autric series and is a European forum of Toshiba, and most of us have European workbooks

    But the P25 is very similar to the P20 series.
    The P20 supports an improved IDE (ATA-5) interface.

    Then you should be able to use IDE hard drives.

    If you want to use a faster disk (ATA-6 or later), then possibly the controller would have only allows the performance of ATA-5;
    ATA - 5 = Ultra DMA 66 = 4, = 6 MB/s UDMA-66 ;)

  • Satellite P200D-139 - HARD drive upgrade options

    I received a P200D-139 and there seem to be two 40GB hard drives.

    I want to upgrade if I put Windows 7 on it.

    I have updated the BIOS, so how big a drive can I put into each slot of the HARD drive?

    I'm also going to 4 GB of RAM.

    See you soon

    Hello

    Satellite or Equium P200D series was equipped with SATA HDD.
    This means that mobile supports the SATA HDD controller, which means that we must avoid any physical limitation.

    Usually, you can use any HARD drive 2.5 SATA
    But I think that 320 HARD drive should be good enough
    What do you think?

  • RAM and the satellite L20-100 HARD drive

    I have an old Satellite L20-100 and it has a few problems with the HARD disk. I want to buy a replacement (new HARD drive) so I need to know what are the types of FDI in L20 - 100 discs...

    In addition, what type of DDR2 RAM I should buy to install in this laptop?

    Don't want to buy a fake, because if I do, it would be very difficult to sell...

    Please, help :)
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I agree with Akuma L20 supports a SATA controller and you need and 2.5 SATA HDD.
    Usually it s no matter which manufacturer is all 2.5 SATA hard drives must be compatible

    With regard to the 48-bit LBA:
    As far as I know that this could be just a problem with HDD IDE (P - ATA). SATA HDD should not be affected. So, theoretically, you could upgrade the HARD disk using larger than 128 GB.

    Regarding the upgrade of memory:
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=20683&ft=m&St=3

    You need DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM and you can use 2 x 1 GB RAM

    Hello

    I guess that your laptop supports the IDE HDD controller.
    Eventually the media controller IDE HDD only 28 bit LBA which allows you to use max 120 GB HDD.

    I think you could install a larger HARD drive.
