  Hello

  AFAIK, you need the old HARD drive password to clear the password disk HARD asking.
  If you have forgotten the password to disk so you don t have any other possibility to get into the HARD drive. In this case, the HARD disk is unusable and unfortunately you need a new HARD disk drive. :(

  Hello!

  The HARD drive password can be removed from no one. Sorry this isn't a joke, it's done.

  The only way is to swap the HARD drive, but your data is lost.

• Satellite 2410: Question on HARD drive replacement

  Hello

  The hard drive on my laptop Satellite 2410 died a few days ago. Replace it with another, one Seagate.

  I don't have my CD of restoration, however, I have the retail CD of Windows XP. Would it not possible to install Windows XP from a CD at retail? Or do I NEED to have the restore CD that came with the laptop.

  If I indeed restore it CDs, where can I get replacement CD since then?

  Thank you.

  Hello Rizwan

  If you n t have the Toshiba Recovery Cd, you can use the original Windows operating system.
  In addition, you need Toshiba drivers and tools. What you can find on the Toshiba site.
  You need to download the drivers and install them after installing Windows.

  Here you can download the drivers:

• Satellite 2410-304: upgrade HARD drive

  News, I have a laptop Satellite 2430-304 with a MK3018GAS of hard drive (30 GB). I would change this hd for one of them, MK4026GAX, MK6026GAX and MK8026GAX. The dimensions are the same, 2.5 ", 69,85 mm, 9.5 mm, 100 mm. could I choose one then no problem? Thanks, Javier Lido

  Hi Javi,

  I swapped the MK3018GAS in my SA30 for a MK8025GAS without any problem at all. I think the only difference between the 8025 and the 8026 is the rotation speed (5400 RPM against 4200 RPM).

  I don't think you should have no problem.

• Cannot set the password for hard drive on the W530 with Intel SSD 520

  Hello

  I have a w530 with an Intel SSD 520 in primary hard drive Bay. Whenever I try to set a password for the primary hard drive, it doesn't stick. If I chose master + user or simply user, I will enter the password, it will take the passwords without producing an error and then just dump back me to the screen of passwords while leaving the disabled hard drive password.

  BIOS is on the latest version for the w530 and SSD, the machine seems fairly normally operate differently.

  Does anyone have ideas how I can activate the password? Thank you!

  Hi, ctenorman

  I did some research and came across this thread of Intel. There are a few people in the thread who were able to set the password on this particular drive. It seems that changing the BIOS "SATA" compatibility mode, set the password, restart, and then change it to "AHCI" worked for some, but not all customers with this player.

  Good luck and let me know how it goes

• Satellite A200 - recovery for HARD drive replacement drive

  Hi all,

  I have here an A200 owner said that he has just stopped working, it gives the message "BOOTMGR is missing", it was running Vista Basic. Vista recovery disc found no operating system (recovery program has written a few files from Notepad on the drive which seem to be the only things on it) install the drive in an external enclosure and try on another computer shows that the only files are the ones notebook. A disk check program found a few bad sectors.

  I intend to replace the drive, my question is what I can do. the operating system, he had a legal copy of Vista, but it came from Harvey Norman with no recovery disc (if the discs provided?) that I have to buy a new copy of the operating system.

  Thanks for your suggestions.

  Hi Zamica,

  I m a bit confused... As a first step, you wrote that the recovery disc found no operating system and then you wrote that he came with no recovery disc

  Anyway, if you n t have a Toshiba Recovery disk, you can order it on the Web from Toshiba site (depending on the exact model) or you can ask a service provider authorized in your country.

• Removal of password for the drive HARD HP 2133

  Former emploee returned HP 2133 p/n: FU351EA #AKD s/n:[personal information deleted] and he forgot BIOS password and HARD drive. I have the BIOS reset and cleared BIOS password. Please give me a procedure to remove the HARD drive password. Data from hard drive can be wiped out.

  HDD password is not removable, as practical a point of view. Very persistent. I have a drawer full of hard drives protected by. The only thing you can do is to replace it, and even that will not work as the system could simply transfer the old password for the new hard drive. Here is a youtube video using Hiren's Boot CD and boot sector editing tool. This does not function normally, but may be worth a try.

• Satellite A210-ICO - what HARD drive I can use?

  I'm getting bad sectors on the hard drive of my laptop, so I guess I should pay for a new one – but who are able to A210-1CO?

  TA, M

  Hello

  Satellite A210 uses SATA hard drives and you need a new HARD drive with SATA interface. You can buy each HARD drive you want, for example 160 or 320 GB. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.

  In addition, most SATA HDDs have already SATA2 interface but its compatible downgrade to SATA1.
  I would have preferred a HARD disk at 5400 RPM. Of course, you can buy a HARD drive with 7200 RPM, but they produced more heat and noise. For most of the applications are pretty 5400 RPM.

  I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

  Good bye

• Satellite A60 - question of HARD drive replacement

  I have an old Toshiba Satellite A60. The HARD drive died recently and I'm looking to replace it. I want to know what disk drive specification, the Toshiba Satellite A60 can support. It originally had a MK3025GAS
  HDD2196B ZE01 S 30 GB 2.5 "drive.

  1. I would like to replace it with a larger capacity drive. What is the capacity (GB) and speed the A60 can bear?

  2. do I need to replace it with a toshiba drive or can I use any other 2.5 "drive (Seagate, Fujitsu, etc...)?

  Hello

  As far as I know the old Satellite A60 supports one IDE controller.
  This means that you must use a 2.5 IDE (ATA) HARD drive.
  As far as I know the older IDE controller are limited to 128 GB with 28-bit LBA (address logic bit).
  Then maybe you should start with a 120 GB HDD, which must be compatible, even if the controller would be limited to 128 GB.

  But standard ATA-6 (also called TONGA-100) does support 48 bit LBA in this case, it is not limited to 128 GB. You can check controller HARD drive using tools such as SANDRA or Everest Home Edition freeware soft for the information on the controller built in the A60.

  > 2. Do I need to replace it with a toshiba drive or can I use any other disk 2.5 "
  You can use any HARD drive that meets the requirements (IDE, 2.5)
