• Satellite Pro A120 - Maximum capacity of the HARD drive?

  HI - new here. I have a:

  Toshiba Satellite Pro A120
  Model PSAC1E-04H00VEN number

  It's less hard drive. I have a 160 GB spare hard drive but when I try to install this using the recovery disc, the operation simply sticks on the "Please wait..." message. ». The specification for the A120, I noted that it supports drives of 40 to 120 GB. Which is strictly true and so why can't I just install this 160 GB drive?

  Thank you.

  Hi Lapitup,

  Usually the 160 GB should be no problem because the laptop supports the SATA interface and there is no limit of ability so that you can install each HARD drive.

  Be interesting to know what HARD drive you have installed exactly and if you tested on another computer because the HARD drive itself could be the problem and not on the computer. If the disc is defective recovery disc can t be installed so that you get an error message.

• Satellite A500-1 - What is the maximum capacity of the HARD drive

  Hello

  I have to re - install the factory installed Win 7 on my Satellite A500-1 because I'm not able to install SP1.
  The cause is that inside Win 7 product information is missing.

  With regard to what I like to install a new HARD disk with more capacity (400 gb current).

  What HARD drive I can install and what is the maximum capacity (1 TB, 750 GB)?

  BIOS is updated.

  Any advice is welcome.

  Hello

  To my knowledge, there is no limitation of the capacity of the HARD disk since the SATA controller is used and the SATA controller should support over 400GB.

• Satellite Pro A100-001 - maximum capacity of a hard drive supported?

  I tried looking for the Board of Directors and the Toshiba site, but have not yet found the answer. Please bear with me if the question has been answered elsewhere.

  I bought an old A100 on eBay - it seems to work fine, but it has a 40 GB hard drive (not standard).

  Enter the serial number on the Toshiba support site reveals the machine to be an A100-001.

  I can implement it using a SATA drive.

  Anyone know if I could go to a 320 GB drive, or if there is a limit to the capacity of hard disk supported in this model?

  Hello

  If that s SATA HARD drive controller then you should be able to use the 320 GB HARD drive and more
  As much as I know the SATA controller has no limitations, and therefore, it should be possible to use these larger sizes of hard drives.

  Hope I could help you.

• What is the maximum capacity of the hard drive replacement for L702x xps17

  I have a Dell xps17 702 x with service NOTE from the ADMINtag: maintain the label removed according to the rules of confidentiality > and get warnings from the race. More disk space. I had hoped 2x500GB tthat would be enough, but photos and your music take up much space.

  What is the largest capacity of hard drives that I can put in my laptop? I would also change the boot disk for one SSD.  I looked on the Dell site for my service tag, and it offers only 640GB HDD 500 GB SSD, which is not sufficient. I can't find anything that tells me if there is a theoretical maximum capacity.  For example, I could put a 2 TB drive in?

  Fits all current portable players that will be physically the system will work - to the 2 t the only drive that will fit is the Seagate/Samsung Spinpoint M9T.  It's the 2 only 9.5 mm t there.  All other readers 2 t (and especially more than 1 t) is 12.5 mm or more large drives that will not fit in the system.

• Re: Tecra A7 - what is the maximum capacity of the HARD drive?

  Hi all

  Is there any BIOS, hardware limitation of a hard drive replacement for Toshiba Tecra A7? I'm looking to install 500 GB hard drive. Will it work?

  Thank you
  Matt

  Hello

  As I know there is no limit of capacity on the HARD disk for Tecra A7 already has a SATA interface and a controller for the HARD drive.

  So, theoretically, 500 GB should work fine, I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work.

  But you could give us a feedback here, how it works with 500 GB! ;)

• Satellite A210-171 - curriculum vitae of Vista failed

  Satellite A210-171 running Windows Vista 32-bit Home.
  At the start, I have Windows RESUME loader screen showing error and asking to choose either 'continue with system summary' or 'Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu. BUT the keyboard does not respond (not even to select the caps lock). Must turn off switch to restart.

  All on a touch after the startup splash screen Toshiba produces a blank screen (same f8 and other function keys).
  Tried default BIOS settings to no effect.

  This problem occurred a few months before and has been resolved by wiping of hard disk and put on a fresh copy of windows from a CD of Vista. Now, it's back--cannot keep from scratch!

  To be honest I n don't know what can be the reason of this problem. If you don t have some important data saved to disk HARD reinstall Vista with recovery DVDs.
  When bring you your laptop, press F12 to enter the boot menu, put the recovery DVD in the optical disc drive, choose the CD/DVD drive in the menu and press ENTER.

  Just follow the menu on the screen and reinstall Vista.

  By the way: this model works perfectly with Win7 32 bit so if there is a possibility, I recommend you to use Win7.

• Satellite A210 - 171 (PSAFJE) - powers but does not start

  Hello

  I hope someone can help me. I have a satellite A210 - 171 (PSAFJE). When I press the power button, the blue satellite lights text at the front left lights up, the light blue power (O with a top vertical bar) the HARD turns, the clique CD/DVD drive on a couple of times and its orange light flashes but nothing (BIOS and POST) is displayed on the screen.

  The battery and the power supply are fine.

  I tried to fix a screen of stand-alond without result.

  The CPU HSF seems to be spinning and blowing air on the side.

  I removed the HDD SATA and attaches to a desktop system - it reads and looks quite good.

  I reinstalled the SODIMM - in fact, I removed the and then replaced them, everyone in the slot on the other.

  When powered, if I press on the "* FN *' & ' * F10 *' keys together, the indicator below the F10 lights & stays on until I repeat the sequence of button.» This happens not with ' * FN *' & ' * F11 *'.

  I downloaded a * + Satellite A210/A215 Satellite Pro A210, Equium A210, Satego A210 Series Maintenance Manual + * (first edition may 2007) but the instructions for * + remove the keyboard + * do not appear to be correct and notes to open the laptop (to have a look on the system map) say you must do this first (and appear not to be accurate in any case).

  Someone has an idea what more I can do, what might be the problem or where I can get the valid instructions for opening the case?

  Thanks much for any help.

  > Someone any idea more I can do, what could be the problem or where I can get the valid instructions for opening the case?

  In my opinion, you did all that would help determine the possible fault
  I would check also the RAM and the HARD drive first, it seems that the HARD drive is ok and that the RAM modules are not the problem. I don t think that the two modules of RAM might be bad at the same time, so I think that the problem can not be linked to the faulty RAM.

  It is possible that the CPU or the motherboard is affected, but in this case, some diagnostic tools are needed that would allow to obtain more details on the affected parts

  But this can be done by a technician of Toshiba ASP so what to say that sounds like a serious hardware problem (motherboard, cpu, etc.)

  But try this: unplug the power adapter, remove the battery and leave the laptop disconnected for a while and then connect the two parts and try to turn on the laptop

  If this is not enough, it helps technician ASP would be necessary

• "Satellite A210-171-freezing error event ID - Kernel-WHEA.

  Hello

  In January 2008, I bought this laptop satellite (A210-171) and have during the month or so it started to freeze, and the only solution is a hard re boot, after which it is fine for awhile. I fear that I will lose all my data or it will go wrong at the wrong time and so I would like to get it fixed.

  According to Event Viewer, it's Kernel-WHEA Event ID 2

  Does anyone know any task etc that may fix this problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Laptops or the OS can freezes for different reasons.
  The freezing system can be caused by a faulty memory, but this issue could also be related to corrupt software.

  If you, it would be very interesting to know if the system hang after a clean install. ?:|

  I have a Satellite A210. I installed Xp and Vista and I n t notice serious trouble with the laptop.

  In my opinion, you should study a bit.
