• Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello!

  I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
  I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
  Thank you very much for your help!

  These are the specs on the site
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

  Hey Buddy,

  In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

  Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
  Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
  I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

• 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?

• Satellite Pro U200 - hard drive upgrade

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro U200-128 and you want to upgrade the hard drive. I can't find detailed specifications to show me the compatibility, drive type and therefore the size of a disc that I can buy.
  I think that its SATA, but there is a lot of info on SATAII, not sure if it will work in my model?

  Any help appreciated

  Hi ollieg72,

  You re right. Satellite Pro U200 already uses the HARD drive with SATA interface if you need a HARD SATA 2.5. In addition, it should be possible to use every ability because on SATA interface, there is no capacity limit.

  Anyway, SATAII HDD is also working because they are compatible to the old interface of SATA1 downgrade. So it makes no difference if the HDD is SATAII interface or not. ;)

• Satellite A100: UNMOUNTED_BOOT_VOLUME HARD drive problem

  My A100 (XP media edition) does not start at the top is normal, safe mode (all types), the last known config as the recovery disk does not work. Error message is unmounted_boot_volume.

  Is there a solution?
  is that what the recoverable data?
  If the new HARD drive is purchased the recovery disk allows you to reinstall the OS?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  As far as I know this error message appears if the HARD drive boot sector is damaged.
  Usually, the new installation of the operating system should help to get rid of this problem.

  If you cannot boot from the recovery CD, I would recommend the original Microsoft windows XP CD boot and start the repair console. Here, you can use the fixmbr command to repair the boot sector.

  Of course, this problem can be caused by a HARD disk failure.
  In this case, the HARD drive must be replaced.

• Satellite L350 - 21Q - hard drive upgrade

  I have a satellite L350 - 21Q and while to love him as a machine in most ways I think it would be benefited greatly a larger hard drive. With this in mind, I started looking for a suitable replacement and found a 1 TB drive in size and uses the SATA 3.0 connection.

  I'm not sure if the machine will support the drive and so I look to you guys for help. Anyone know if the drive works with the machine, or is two opposites. If this is true can someone advise me what SATA type works and this as the maximum capacity of the space on the hard drive please?

  Thanks in advance :-)

  Unfortunately, Toshiba provides some specific information on hard drives compatible and tested.
  In my opinion you should not notice a few problems with this HARD drive. It is important that you use the HARD disk with SATA connector.

  You can order the new HARD drive, test and if something does not such as you simply want to return.
  Your comments are welcome, because we do not have precise information about these updates.

• Satellite L100 113 - HARD drive upgrade

  I want to convert the disc on the laptop 60 GB to 250 GB.
  If it is possible?, flat main (motherboard) some limitations to disk?
  Plan to buy Samsung 250 GB 2.5 '7200 obr, SATA, 16 MB.

  Thank for the answer.

  Hello

  Yes, I think you should be able to upgrade the HARD drive since the SATA HDD controller is not limited to any size you should be able to use the 250 GB HARD drive.

  250 GB, 2.5 ", 7200 obr, SATA, 16 MB is pretty and expected functions.

• Satellite L20-183 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite L20-183. I would like to change the hard drive TOSHIBA MK6032GSX to a larger and more rapid as: WD 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 Mb SATA2 Notebook WD3200BEKT.
  It will be compatible or should I buy SATA 1 HDD 5400 RPM?

  Hello

  Satellite L20 works with disk HARD SATA 1 and maximum capacity, with which it was delivered was 100 GB but I think 320 should not be problematic.
  RPM MAX was 5400 then I think you should buy the HARD disk with the same number of TURNS.

• Satellite A40-151 Possible HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

  RPM
  buffer
  Number of PINS
  Type of the ATA

  I was watching a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST980815A, if this helps answer the question.

  Hello

  I found the info your device comes with 40 GB IDE (ATA - 5) HARD drive. I think in your case, to capacity. High-capacity hard drives are not recognized properly, but I think that with 60 or 80 GB HDD should perhaps be recognized correctly.

  If anyone on this forum can give you accurate information, I recommend you contact your local dealer or service in your country. They are experts upgrade material and they have accurate info on HARD drive upgrade.

  Good luck!

• Boot Manager is missing or damaged in Satellite A100-062, VISTA

  Toshiba Satellite A100-062
  M/N PSAANE-03G00DEN

  When trying to boot the laptop says bootmgr missing and he won t let me to do nothing, just a blank screen.

  I inserted the Vista disc and tried to reinstall but it still says root because the Boot Manager is missing and error code = 0 x 15 on startup repair.

  Can someone help me please and don't forget I'm a novice so will need an idiots guide.

  Thank you very much John

  Hello!

  Have you tried with the disk recovery Toshiba or a disk of Microsoft?
  If you want to reinstall Vista with Microsoft disc, you need SATA drivers.

  I m do not know what is the problem, but in your case, I would like to format the HARD drive. You can do this with the Microsoft disk or with special tools like the Drive Fitness Test (http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT).

  Delete all partitions and then do a low level format. Then try again to install Windows.

  Give me a reason why this has happened.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100-062: I would like to downgrade from Vista to XP

  OK, I'm helping a friend who has two Toshiba laptops, about 5 months (with XP) and another with Vista. For various reasons: lack of support of pilots for its 2 years, printer, the software does not not etc. - I would like to 'downgrade' the new laptop to XP. The model is a Satellite A100-062.

  Is it as simple as just install XP and Vista (good riddance) - crush or am I'm going to have problems with a lack of Toshiba XP drivers for this particular machine?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  > Is as simple as just install XP and Vista (good riddance) - crush or am I'm going to run in
  > problems with a lack of Toshiba XP drivers for this particular machine?

  Well, on the page of the Toshiba driver you will only find the Vista drivers.
  But don t worry the A100 many different A100 series notebooks were shipped with the same hardware specification.
  I simply recommend you test different drivers from different series Satellite A100 and Equium A100.

  Additional information on the Tip:
  Why you n t create a second partition on the laptop and install the XP operating system as a second operating system.
  In this case, you can use the two BONES.
  What do you think???

• Satellite A100-062 - connect via HDMI LCD monitor

  Hello

  I wish I could connect my laptop Satellite A100-062 to LCD TV.
  The TV has a HDMI input. I understand that I could get a cable to connect DVI to HDMI, but I'm not sure I'd be able to output/DVI laptop computer.

  Is it possible to connect the laptop to a TV LCD with HDMI? If so, how would that be better achieved? Do I need a series of cables converters?

  Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  As much as I know this laptop can't stand out DVI, or HDMI port.
  It supports only s-video and RGB (monitor) output port.

  My Satellite phone supports a HDMI port output. The external monitor supports DVI and HDMI.
  I connected my laptop via a DVI-HDMI laptop/DVI HDMI cable on my monitor.

  I don't know if there is a RGB to HDMI adapter I doubt m
  But I found another solution;
  You can use a cable S-video to SCART and was able to connect the converter as Lindy - SCART to HDMI between laptop and TV or LCD display.
  This converter is not cheap, but it s about 120Euros
