Satellite A50: What disk are supported

Hello

my hard drive seems to be broken and I would change it.
Which hard drive I can use for my Toshiba Satellite series A 50?
The former was about 60 GB.

Is it difficult to change the hard disk laptop? I have experience with
PC, but not with laptops.

The one who (HDD) should I buy?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello

I m an owner of the Satellite A50. It s unit a bit old but I used only as a portable backup and second.
In any case, I updated the notebook with 100 GB HARD drive! It works!
So I guess you can also use a 100 GB HARD drive, but please take a look at the HARD drive interface.
It is important that the HARD disk supports the good interface. To my knowledge, the HARD must drive supports improved interface IDE (ATA-6)!

Good bye

  • Satellite 2410-404: which HARD disks are supported

    Hello

    one of our phones, to a new hard drive. What toshiba product are compatible to our Toshiba Satellite 2410 404?

    concerning
    Jan Wernecke

    The problem is that Toshiba provides official information on compatible HARD disk HARD disk sizes.
    But I've studied a bit in the internet and the following four sizes of hard drives must be supported:
    20 GB; 30 GB; 40 and possibly the 60 GB.

    Perhaps more info:
    Must HARD disk supports the improved IDE ""(ATA-5) EIDE interface ".

    Hello

    Update CPU's official unsupported. This means that no one can say what will run the latest processors or not. Maybe you need also a new cooling fan, who knows?

  • Satellite P100-160: what disk are compatible?

    My laptop is very slow with Vista, I format every month to make it a little faster but the hard drive is so slow, which is always reading (light still flashes). I would like to replace with a 100 GB SATA 7200 RPM HD, how can I check the compatibility? Has anyone tried it?
    Thank you
    Tom

    Hello

    The laptop already came with the 100 GB (5400 RPM) SATA HDD.
    The higher speed (7200 RPM) HARD drive shouldn't have a bad influence on the compatibility of the HARD disk!

    But I don t think that greater speed of HARD drive will increase the performance of the laptop immensely. Of course, it s best to use a 7200 RPM HARD drive as a 5400 RPM HARD drive, but the difference is not really noticeable.

    However, the compatible hard drives can also be purchased from the ASP in your country.

  • Re: Satellite A210 - what improvements are possible

    Hello

    I have already put more RAM in my laptop and want to put a disk faster and longer in there, but what can I do else?
    Can I update graphics and CPU? Wireless card? Or put in bluetooth?

    Also, I want to put in a PCI tv tuner

    You can upgrade the processor, but I think that it is not worth.
    A new s processor cost a lot of money and you won't get much more performance and the new processor is not compatible with your motherboard or BIOS.
    The GPU is not extensible because it s soldered onto the motherboard.
    Here is an article on the CPU/GPU upgrade:
    http://195.182.196.33/KB0/FAQ7A01ZW0007R01.htm

    In my view, a new WLAN card does not make the laptop faster and Bluetooth, you can also use a USB Bluetooth stick. Some sticks do not much cost.
    It s TV Tuner external available and I also think it of better because these improvements are not known to me.

  • Satellite A50 - recovery disk is not working

    Hello

    I'm trying to do a clean install on my laptop, but the recovery disk is not working.
    The files transferred to the laptop, but once done, I get an error message that says: "the system is not fully installed. Please run Setup again."

    Does anyone have suggestions as to how to fix it?

    It took me four days to get to this point and make me very frustrated.

    Thanks heaps

    Naomi

    Hello

    What is the installation using another CD; That is to say the Microsoft Windows XP disk?
    Have you tried that?

    In my opinion, this would help to pinpoint the problem
    The error message can be linked to different issues; I mean the HARD drive or a single partition problem could also be possible.

    Try to format the drive HARD whole again. Delete all partitions from the HARD drive and check if you can proceed with the installation.

    But if you will not be able to install the OS by using the recovery disk and other disks then a question must relate to a part of the material. (possibly HDD)

  • Satellite A50 - internal speakers are dead

    Hello

    My two internal speakers do not work. I plug the earphone is ok.
    Driver is ok, material too.

    I tried to get new speakers without success.

    Can I replace the speakers with small (I took my little battery radio)?
    It will work or affect the MB?

    Hello

    > I tried to get new speakers without success.
    Have you tried to order the ASP compatible speakers in your country?
    In my opinion, they would be able to provide consistent and right speakers.
    In the worst case (the speakers are not in stock), it may order the necessary parts of a doll of Toshiba.

    > Can I replace the speakers with small (I took my little battery radio)?
    I do not recommend the use of parts that are not compatible with the laptop.
    Small speakers do not correspond with the chassis of portable computers and you might have some problems with the installation.
