Satellite A200 - 14 d - how to install second HDD?

Last weekend, I decided to get a second hard drive on my computer. I read manual and there saw that Pocket number 7 is for second HARD drive.
I decide to take my computer to specialist.

Looking model, he told me that editing another HDD is no big problem. So I bought it. But when he opened this case (with hdd2) it looked like ghost. He told me that there is not any place for it that it is the first time that he saw this show. ALE here some links with photos:

The search for your quick response

Hello

I think the case is clear your phone isn't designed for a second HDD if you don t have a second HARD drive connector in the second HARD drive Bay.

The point is that some laptops A200 are designed for a second HDD and so not all models have a second connector but all a second HDD bay.
As I see in your pictures that you don t have a second connector HARD drive and laptop can use a second HDD.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 and the second HDD bay

    Hallo, I want to install a second internal HDD to hdd2 Bay, but when I opened the Bay I noticed that it is not all connectors installed.
    So, what's the point of a second drive Bay hard if there are no connectors inside?

    Hello
    The point of this Bay is, IF you buy a model with a second equipped HARD drive then there will be a connector, but if bought a model with a SINGLE disc fitted then you just need a drive since the connector to the second HDD was not soldered on the motherboard of your model.

    Easy and simple. If you want to have a second drive, then you must either:

    -solder a connector for the motherboard which causes your warranty and does not mean that you can use a second drive since you will need the appropriate BIOS Rom
    -buy a USB - HDD and accept your situation :/

    That's all.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - how to install a second HDD?

    Hello

    I would like to install a second hard drive to my Satellite Pro P300-1F1.

    I would like to know if I need a "cellar" special to set the hard drive inside the Bay? Where could I get such a thing in Germany (near Cologne)?

    On the inside of the drive Bay cover HARD are four plastic pins that are so long that it is impossible to close the cover when a hard drive is built in.
    What I have to just shorten or do I need a new cover or pins work like a kind of attachment?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Is there a connector from the HARD drive in the second span?

    If this isn't the case, then you can not install a HARD drive in any case. The second span is because he shares a common design with models that have a second HDD of the factory.

    Hello

    Regarding the point * 1: *.
    The "PCI memory controller" or "Mass Storage Controller means the former Turbo Memory module Robson." This feature is only available on Vista, and that's why drivers are not available for Win XP.

    Check this box:

  • Satellite A200-1SM is slow after installing Vista

    Hello.

    I have a problem with my Satellite A200-1sm computer.
    Yesterday I installed Alcohol 120% program and something happened.
    My computer stoped working and a restart and blue screen.

    After that, I installed the Windows Vista again and installed the driver.
    My processor is slow (before this happened was 3.8 after 4.6 and 4.5 memory after 2.7) and my memory is slow.

    Help

    Hello

    I installed the tool Alcohol 120% a few months ago too and as far as I know this software creates virtual drives and you can emulate max 31 readers.

    I m not 100% sure, but maybe this could be the reason for your BSOD issues possibly the software isn't 100% compatible with vista OS.

    However, after installation since the laptop recovery CD uses the factory settings and should work fine. I don t think that your laptop works done slower, is that Toshiba picture (from recovery CD) contains a large number of programs that regulates the functions of the laptop and run in the background of the OS. These processes need resources from the laptop, and so the Vista experience index may change.

    This is why I am 100% sure that your laptop is ok.

    You should visit the Websites of Microsoft and should read a little about this index, and how it works.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A200 - 14 d: how many times can I change the screen resolution

    I would like to ask if often resolution change may damage the screen of my Satellite A200 - 14 d?

    Because now I'm programming in Assembly in resolution 640 x 480, and whenever I run a program, the screen should change its 1280 x 800 to 640 x 480 resolution, and it takes 1-2 seconds: it is empty, the backlight turns off, then the new resolution appears. I would like to ask if it permanently (often) could damage my LCD?

    Thank you.

    Don't worry man, it will not damage the screen ;)
    You can change the screen resolution often unhesitatingly ;)

  • Satellite A200 - 1 GB - trying to install Windows XP Home edition but without HARD drive?

    Hello world!

    Recently, I bought a new laptop, Satellite A200 - 1 GB, and after two weeks of fighting against windows Vista I decided to uninstall it and install WXP whose permit, I bought a long time ago.

    I restarted my computer with the Windows XP cd to the inside and I start the system with it, but when it loads all the controllers and I proceed with the installation of windows xp, it says that there is no disk (probably) in my laptop.

    I hope someone can help me. Someone at - it windows XP installation experience in this laptop model?

    Hello

    The species has been described several times here in the forum of Toshiba.
    Recommend studying a little ;) would use the advanced search option Forum!

    But because you're a beginner, that I'll try to give some useful advice.
    The HARD drive is not visible because you need to first install the Intel Matrix storage controller.
    This controller can be downloaded form or another page Toshiba or Intel page.

    During the installation of XP, you will need to press the F6 key to include this iMSM in the XP installation. You will need an external USB HDD drive to do this.

    But if you want, you can build an own XP CD using nLite software and could understand this iMSM in the XP CD again.

  • Satellite A200 - change in BIOS, so installing XP after Vista

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite A200-1SM and I would like to install an os win XP (for the moment, I'm working with Vista and the latest BIOS for this system). Do I have to Flash the BIOS of my motherboard or this step is simply an option that I don't have to do it because XP works fine without him?

    Thx for the help :).

    Hello

    The number of threads here on this forum, you will find discussions on this subject.

    You can use Windows XP Home edition on your laptop without the BIOS upgrade, but you will not have the full support of WXP. This means that you probably won't be able to use all the features of FN keys. If you want to have the full functionality of Windows XP Home edition, you must upgrade the BIOS to version 5.20, I think. Find out on the Toshiba BIOS download page.

  • Satellite A200 - 10 X: how to HARD drive partitioning

    Hi there guys!

    I have a pro with my satellite A200 - 10 X, there is only one volume of HARD drive and I want to do both... and everytime I use the product recovery CD, it formats the HARD drive... but I don't know how to partition the drive HARD two get volume two spaces...

    and what is worse than when I continue to do it that he eats again and again the free space of HARD drive... so how can I partition the HARD drive and recover space 200 GB the computer initially?

    I appreciate your help...
    thanx

    Hello

    If you use the Vista operating system, you can partition the HARD drive running Vista.
    Just go to disk management. You can find in the control panel-> tools of Government (or something like that).

    In disk management, you can shrink the first partition C.
    On the free space of HARD drive, you will be able to create a new partition.
    I think you should see this option if you right-click on the partition.

    This procedure is very simple and I already did on my Vista computer.

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro A300 - can I add a second HDD?

    Hi Forums,

    I have an A300 PSAGDA-02000R and was wondering if it is possible to add a second HDD to it. After I removed the Panel to inspect where the second HDD going, I discovered that there is no connector, so I was wondering if you bought or have Toshiba install a second series of connectors?

    any response would be great

    Thank you F1R3F1GHT

    Hello

    > where will the second HDD, I discovered that there can be no connector
    That means that you can add a second HDD. That's fact!

    The fact is that all the A300 models using the same case but if you can connect a second HDD it according to the motherboard. This connector is attached to this topic and you can therefore add one such connector.

  • Is satellite P875-L32 - possible to add a second HDD?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P875 - 32L (PSPLFE-0C700RGR) which has 2 HDD / a MSATA SSD slot I would use now.

    My question is if they are enabled, or can be activated in some way to add storage capacity or an SSD for example a Crucial M4 MSATA SSD 256 GB. I asked the hotline and they didn t know. I wrote to the Austrian support and they didn t write again now I m really worried.

    I bought the Satellite as a model for my audio class. I chose for its storage capacity and will send it back if the slots are disabled, but I won´t think I mean after all Toshibas slogan runs innovation... and a slot for the disabled is exactly the opposite of innovation.

    I n t have this model of laptop, but every model can be improved with second HDD/SSD if square and the port are available.
    On the lower part there is only a single large enough coverage. When you remove it, you should see RAM and HARD drive. If it is necessary to drive HARD vacuum with SATA connector you can put there second HARD drive.

    You shouldn't be worried about anything whatsoever. Some models are extensible and others not.
