Satellite A200 - 1 GB does support SATA 300 HARD drive?

I want to spend my Sat A200 - 1 GB hard disk with a 7200 RPM one... but they are all SATA300 models.
Is this speed mode supported by the bios, motherboard and sata controller of this laptop?

I just want to be sure that the hard drive works at its maximum speed capability and the sata and the mobo will not be a bottleneck...

If Yes, the sata controller driver whichsis?... I want this wake in my own vista installation disc.

Hello!

Yes, you can use a disk with SATA300 mode but it only works in normal mode SATA no more at maximum speed. The Satellite A200 supports only SATA 1.0 mode (SATA150).

You can use a HARD drive with 7200 RPM, this isn't a problem.

What HARD drive capacities are supported, that you can see in the user manual. Look in Chapter 1.

The SATA driver is in the Intel Storage Manager package.

Good bye

    Hello

    Maybe you did not use good SATA driver?  :| Who knows
    The point is that there are two different versions of Intel Matrix Storage Manager supports different chipsets.
    I put t know what chipset is in charge of your laptop but you should check this and must also check the description of the Intel Storage Manager and check what chipsets are supported.

    In addition, you should have a look here in this doc from Toshiba:

  • Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

    Hi all
    I have a Satellite A30 (PSA30E) and I start the computer. When I enter the BIOS it does not recognize the hard drive.
    Does anyone no what I can do?
    Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

    Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
    If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

    Please provide more info. You see error messages?

    Hello

    The Satellite M70-340 was delivered with the 60 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive.
    I don't think that the speed of the HARD drive could have a bad influence on the compatibility of the HARD drive.

    You must only make sure that the size of the HARD drive and the interface are supported!

    Hello

    As far as I know, that it supports SATA II (3 Gb/s)
    But you could install some software like diagnostic tools * SiSoft SANDRA *.
    This would allow all of the details about the hardware configuration.

    Could you confirm that its SATA II?

    The 'taken' mentioned is not taken!
    In the second HARD drive Bay, you won't find a second HARD drive connector because this motherboard does not have this feature!

  • Satellite L635-PSK04E - Windows does not recognize the HARD drive

    Hello

    Recently, my hard drive for my Toshiba Satellite L635 PSK04E was broken and I bought a Western Digital WD500LPVX to replace.

    I am trying to install Windows 7 on the laptop, but on installing Windows page size of the disc seems 0Go and there is a Windows message "the selected partition requires at least 8462 Mb of free space. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Ensure that the control of the disk is activated in the BIOS menu.

    In the BIOS, the drive is detected as with the label (S2). (See attachment). Is this normal?

    I bought this as a SATA drive and thought that it would be compatible with my laptop (his recent hard drive is a SATA too).

    Now I'm afraid, that I bought a bad disc type that is not compatible with my laptop.
    But are not all compatible SATA drives? What is a drive problem?
    I couldn't find any Toshiba SATA drivers on their web page of drivers.

    Can you please help me what to do?

    To be honest HDD Exchange should not be a big problem. When you buy a 2.5 HDD with SATA connector should be recognized automatically and Windows installation should not be a problem. In general you can not do something wrong. Your dealer can help you with this also.

    Before continuing a matter of discussion for you: do you use the Microsoft installation disc or original recovery disk?

    One last thing: now when you need new drive hard best option should be upgraded with SSD. Disc SSD is much faster and using this disk, you can have the much faster machine with very short reaction time. If possible, send your new drive HARD back and buy SSDS.

    How to activate Audio devices hidden in Vista and Windows 7
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/143447-audio-device-enable-hidden-devices.html

    Connect one microphone, music player or other audio device to your computer (you want to be sure
    the mic input is enabled)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/connect-a-microphone-music-player-or-other-audio-device-to-your-computer

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pilots may also need to be updated:

    Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek high definition
    Audio (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
    and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
    rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
    installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Click with the right button on the speaker near clock - recorders - right click in the box - check see the

    then on lower right properties. Make sure that the appropriate injector is selected and check
    other parameters - levels tab make sure that MUTE is disabled and APPLY / OK to change

    Also in the search for some Audio Manager Panel (perhaps named after the manufacturer of the sound driver). Mine

    Not your portable computer does not support SATA II.

    However, you can buy the SATA II hard drive and put it in your laptop. Only way to get it going is to restrict the new speed of SATA HDD, I accelerate. To do this is to introduce a jumper on the drive to restrict it to SATA I speeds up. Once it's done put in your laptop and viola, it works.

    Good luck, but I would like to get a toshiba technician to install it if its under warranty. It's for your own good, so you don't turn your laptop into a boat anchor.
