Satellite 2210CDT: hardware upgrade

Hello again! I'll update my Toshiba hadware a little...

1: 196 MB RAM upgrade - I bought SODIM 128 but How to put inside - do I have to unscrew everything laptop?

2: upgrade CD DVD: but can give me these details: How is it fixed and the size and what is more important, is - this is possible?

Thank you for your answers, Paj

PS. I've read about hd upgrade, what can say you about it?

Hello

1. not all computer laptop but enough material should be deleted. First, you must remove the keyboard. After that on the upper right corner, the modem card must be removed. Under the modem is the Ram slot.
2 disk update is not simply because you can't do that with any player, but the player must be compatible with the system. Sorry, but I don? have info which drive you use. Just Toshiba service partners have this information.

HARD drive upgrade is the easiest part, and you can do it alone without any problem. The only question is the maximum capacity of the HARD disk that can be properly recognized by the system. I think that 10 or 12 GB should not be a problem, but more than that can be problematic. The ASP also has information about it.

Good bye

  • Satellite Pro C660-2I - hardware upgrade

    Hey there, I was wondering if it is possible to update the graphics card, sound card and processor on this laptop? Please tell me you need to know

    Mobile units are no built like desktop computers and these updates is not possible. Hardware upgrade on laptops is very limited and can be done with the RAM and HARD drive.

    If you need machine with more performance is upgraded RAM up and implement faster SSD HARD drive or you need to buy the new laptop.

  • Re: Instructions to open a Z930 satellite and the upgrade of the SSD

    Hi guys,.

    I was wondering if there is a service manual to show me, or if anyone knows from experience, how to open a Satellite Z930 and upgrade the SSD. I know that this will cause the nullity of my warranty but I do not like; Toshiba MobileCare won't have anything to do with it and I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for something that I could do it myself if I knew how to remove the back cover!

    I removed all the screws from the bottom, but coverage won't come again libere‑moi seems to be stuck at the rear left. I guess there is another screw under the keyboard or something... any help would be very appreciated! :)

    I agree with Akuma, Satellite and Portégé Z930 models are equipped with a type mSATA "Solid State Drive (SSD)" instead of a hard drive and sizes compatible mSATA are 128/256 GB

    If someone can provide me with a list of known compatible with my system hardware would be great, I'll also be open to any suggestion of additional hardware upgrade if someone propose

    Hello

    Two things, you will not be able to upgrade: display the card and wireless network card.

    (a) graphics card: we cannot spend more than 90% of laptops, including yours,

    (b) wireless network adapter: your machine was built before the mid-2014, the whitelist prevents you to upgrade the wireless card.

    Now, you have 2 items to upgrade (maybe 3): hard drive and the processor (CPU) (and maybe RAM)

    (a) HARD drive: any 2.5 "HDD or even SSDS with 9.5 mm or less. SSD is more expensive but faster. HHD, please select the one that has RPM faster (7200 RPM), large cache (more is better). They are numerous on the following list including SSD:

    Hello

    I just got a laptop from my company and it's 2 a bit slow for what I do, so please advise me on a hardware upgrade or point me in the right direction to ask this question.

    My Tecra is S3 model PTS30E - 01P01CG3 Y5120397H series, it is about three years old and I would like to upgrade:

    1 - CPU Intel Pentium M1.86 gHz, I can replace it with a dual core or core 2 duo of?
    The motherboard does it take? What is the most powerful CPU it can use?

    2-ram memory is 1 GB and I want to place as much as possible. 2 GB is the best that I can place?
    Can you recommend a brand of RAM which would give exceptional results?

    3-disk HARD 80 GB comes, and I also want to know if I can replace it with a bigger?

    I live in Romania, I'm not sure where can I make these upgrades. What is the nearest place?

    Thank you and have a nice day.
    Florin.

    Hello Florin

    Tecra S3 is old enough laptop model, and expect too much with upgrades, especially with the CPU. Of way General CPU cannot be upgraded and perhaps should not be upgraded. Each laptop model has a specific design and cooling modules are optimized for the specific hardware platform.

    1. so, for you it is important to have the laptop stable without damaging the hardware. Okay, just for the record
    Tecra S3 comes with separate Intel Mobile Pentium-M processors - [1.73GHz/1.86GHz/2.0AGHz (0.748-1.356V)/2.13GHz (0, 748 - 1.372V))]
    [/ 2.26 GHz (0, 748 - 1.404V)] and these processors operate at 533 MHz bus clock.
    Update CPU not is also not supported if forget it. The CPU you have inside is powerful enough. What you need is more RAM and perfectly configured and optimized operating system.

    2 RAM can be upgraded up to 2 GB and it is not the problem. You can use 2 x 1 GB RAM DDR2-400/533 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G).
    This RAM is tested and works perfectly with your Tecra S3 of will be.

    3 disk HARD upgrade is also not problematic. Tecra S3 uses SATA HDD and you can improve it with more than 120 GB. I'm 100% sure that you can use 160 GB with no problems.
    In my opinion, that's good enough. Isn t it? ;)

    4. optimize the operating system. Disable all unnecessary background processes and your Tecra will be working perfectly.

    >.. .i don't know where I can make these upgrades.
    Do it alone. It is not so complicated. If you need help let us know.
    Good bye

"process because the right of keyboards above the hard drive then buy a card off a Nvida site hope this has given is a man of hope"

    Can anyone comment on what I would like to be able to upgrade my P20.

    Richard

    Hi Richard

    Update graphics card is serious theme and my only comment to that is: pick up serious source info and not in the forum where everyone can say learn all about laptops.

    Sorry, but I'm still a little skeptical about some of the comments. I had P20 for about a year and a half and it is very nice for laptop (desktop replacement). The unit is powerful enough and with max RAM you can have a very nice unit. But never forget that this device is not so flexible as desktop computers for the hardware upgrade.

    Another thing: a few months ago, I googled around and searched some independent reseller (non-Toshiba) where I can buy parts of different material. I can tell you one. You can get everything but they don t offer updated graphics card. Guess why!

    Good speed with upgrade, but please don t claim later that the unit is too hot or too strong, maybe or anything else!

  • Satellite 2210CDT: two problems after installing Win XP

    Hello! Maby it sounds funny but I found Toshiba Satellite 2210CDT inside my closet, installed Windows XP (oem supplied with the mouse, I bought some time ago) and it works!
    The only problems I have are:
    * When the system is in hibernation, it is impossible to 'wake up' (I remmember in Win98 in this laptop there is problem);
    * I don't really have the tools provided with Win98 came with the laptop (ie.battery status and so...)

    Appreciate the help, Mike

    PS sorry if I post in a bad place in the forum, but this is my first post (I hope you can understend...)

    Hello

    Satellite 2210CDT is an ancient and you should be lucky that Windows XP runs on you laptop.
    But this unit has been designed and delivered before the era Windows XP started.
    I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there is no drivers for Windows XP. I found drivers only for W2k and Win98.
    Unfortunately, if you use the Win XP on your laptop you must do without drivers Toshiba, tools and utilities.

    I found a utility to do Hibernation for Win98 on the Toshiba site. I think that this is a utility that is important to use the hibernation mode. But as I said, it is available for Win98.

  • Hardware upgrade of 4 servers windows 2003 7

    I just upgraded my Commvault software to version 9, with de-DUP.

    I noticed that my CF band is only changing to 100bm Brook.

    I read on the hardware upgrade to version 7.

    I have 14 VM to upgrade all the 2003 win. All have the latest tool installed 4.1

    Is there a there has been has I should look for before I start to put it off?

    before upgrade you the virtual hardware, you must upgrade the comment of VMware tools.  In an engine, the customer is off State, you can upgrade the virtual hardware.  From there on, turn on the prompt, login, let windows find all new device drivers and then restart again.  Here you connect and remove all devices shaded in Device Manager... Usually, restart us once more after that.

    With regard to the witch hunt.  If you are concerned, you can always snapshot the prior comments to the upgrade and if there are problems, return back.

    See the KB article how to properly uninstall the old drivers

  • ESXi host and VM hardware upgrades

    Hi all

    I pretty well know the answer to these questions (I like to read manuals), but I just wanted a few reassuring those who have ventured in front me.

    1 / when the upgrade to ESXi hosts of 3.5 to 4.0, it is my understanding that there is no real emergency in the upgrade of the host of the virtual computer (tools and hardware to version 7) as vSphere 4.0 will run happily with the older virtual machine (but without the new features).  However, I am wondering if anyone has experienced problems do not upgrade the machine virtual shortly after the upgrade of the host.  My intention is to do it very shortly after, but sometimes the best-laid plans go out the window in my role, so I'd feel comfortable if I new I could run the old VM indefinitely without any problem.

    2 / how 'security' is upgraded version of the VM from 4 to 7 material?  VMware I don't expect any problems, but I would like to know if anyone has experienced problems that can cause interruptions of service extended to the VM guest.

    Thanks in advance,

    Steve.

    1. I would separate between VMware tools and hardware upgrade. New tools not only to upgrade virtual hardware drivers, they also inflating to update and other features VMware uses to communicate with the guest operating system. In my opinion, you should pass the VMware tools as soon as possible. I can't say for sure if you have any questions without upgrading. My personal opinion/experience, is that during the "normal" old tools will.

    The hardware upgrade should not too important. In environments with hundreds of guests, you will actually have to update all hosts (in a cluster) material in order not to lose the capacity of invited guests 3.5 vMotion.

    2. the only issues I've had so far with the upgrade of the hardware have been networked. I had a few VMs to reconfigure the network manually after the upgrade.

  • Snapshot before VM hardware upgrade?

    Hello people,

    I read a lot of conflicting information around it, so thought I would ask here.

    We are going to be upgrade to vSphere 4.0 soon and of course will focus on the hardware upgrade of the virtual computer to version 7.

    Now, if I take a snapshot before you do the upgrade of HW and it goes pearshaped can I go back to the snapshot and the server will work?

    Or is it a one-way change, even with a snapshot in place?

    Same Xtravirt, which are usually about money, seems a bit confusing:

    ()http://xtravirt.com/do-i-upgrade-vmware-virtual-hardware-version-7( )

    They say:

    "When you upgrade virtual hardware version 3 to version 7, the upgrade is irreversible, even if you take a backup of virtual machine or a snapshot before you perform the upgrade.

    Then later in the same article:

    "using snapshots will give you the opportunity to come back if there is a problem."

    Thanks in advance.

    HW version 3 refers to the VM for instance ESX 2.x (see KB1003746 - versions of virtual machine hardware)

    I never upgraded to this version, so I can't say whether this is true or not. However, it is possible to return to a HW version 4 improved virtual computer. VUM proposes explicitly to take a snapshot before upgrading hardware.

  • Satellite 4090xcdt - Question about hardware upgrade?

    Hello!
    I want to upgrade the hardware in my old satellite 4090xcdt so I want to know what is possible.
    1. HARD drive: is there a maximum or something else?
    2 DVD: is it possible to replace the CD on a dvd player? How can I remove the cd player?
    3 CPU: is it possible to replace the CPU with a bit more recent? If so, how?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    This unit is an oldie. It s about 7 years and as far as I know it has been bundled with a 4 GB HARD drive.
    Unfortunately I put t believe that more HARD drive be recognized on this laptop.
    The series XCDT supports 4GB max and XDVD series supports hard drives 6 GB.
    Xdvd models were shipped with a DVD - rom drive and these models have been supported: SD-C2102 and SD-C2202
    In addition, it is not possible to upgrade the processor.

  • A few questions regarding the hardware upgrade and the games on Satellite Pro 2100

    Hey,.

    I thought that posting this here because it's more about the lines for the games I could think on another topic.

    I'll get to the point... Basically, I bought a laptop from a guy that my friend knew. He barely used this laptop and didn't know anything about computers, and he tried to avoid as much as possible. So he got rid of this laptop for me for real cheap.

    Now I got it, I had expected either of two things with the laptop.

    (1) what I'll use it so I can sit in his bed and travel a little bit while having files, movies, music and internet access. (it wasn't my main idea)

    Or

    (2) it allows to play video games on it, or to update, so I have a better chance to do so.

    I was hoping to get for video games, mainly for my brother to use because his computer is lagging a lot while playing world of Warcraft. I was hoping that this notebook would give him a better experience for a while.

    But as I was installing the game on this, I noticed that the disk space is low, so I'm going to buy an external hard drive, so I can send files between the PC and the laptop, and I got an error message saying that the RAM was under "minimum requirements" for WoW.

    So I know that I got to level it with something big, but I know not what, so I'm not quite sure that this laptop will run the game at a decent rate. So I thought that I turn to a computer forum and ask.

    It's my laptop;
    [Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 45659 ie]

    This laptop will do the job don't you think?
    Or it will be better for simpler things, or less if I had the ram to 1gig?

    I don't know much on the laptop, and I'm not really willing to spend too much on fixing, if it's just a change of the ram, then it wouldn't cost much for than to upgrade around 1gig.

    Hello

    First of all, I must say that this notebook belongs to an older series laptop.
    It was equipped with the 1.8 Celeron CPU, 256 MB RAM, 20 GB or 30 GB HARD drive and a 16MB graphics card internal.

    What you can do is upgrade the RAM up to 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) and the HARD drive. But I think that the maximum size of HARD drive that would be recognized by the BIOS is 120 GB.
    I think that the laptop supports one IDE controller and it limited because of the 28-bit LBA HARD drive size.

    So finally, it is important to mention that you can not pass the graphics card because it s soldered onto the motherboard. Upgrading the CPU is not possible or very difficult.

    I come to the conclusion that you will not be able to play games of new generation on this machine. The hardware specs are maybe too low a few simple games would run on this laptop but I'm sure that other newer games will not run smoothly.

  • Re: Satellite L505-13W - hardware upgrade

    Hi all

    I specified model
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/discontinued-products/satellite-L505-13W/

    and I want to use the design program rhino3d v5.

    Minimum specifications of the program can be found here:
    http://www.simplyrhino.co.UK/rhinotraining/hardware.html

    The practical system minimum requirements are:

    Intel Core i5 Quad Core AMD 4400 equivalent or
    8 GB RAM
    500 GB HD
    Open GL graphics card
    Windows 7 64 bit

    Are there opportunities that I can upgrade my laptop to be able to use the program (ram, ssd, the graphics card)

    or is it a laptop?

    You can upgrade the RAM and HARD drive. Upgrading CPU is delicate and not supported by the laptop manufacturers. Graphics card can not be upgraded.

    Satellite L505-13W was equipped with an Intel Core i5 - 430 M 2.26 GHz (2 cores) processor
    You can also upgrade the RAM up to 8 GB of RAM and the HARD drive can be also updated to your preferred size.

    Minimum requirements of the system suggested practices are very similar to the laptop hardware specifications, and I think that after the upgrade of RAM, you should be able to run the application.

Maybe you are looking for
