Satellite L30 - 10V - smart failure hard disk

My laptop s son frozen then it happened and THE new, and as he loaded up Vista again said that there was a mistake and restarted itself and continued in this loop until I put in the disc of resettlement (GMR400705EN0) provided with the laptop and resisted F12 at startup.

Everything seemed well forward. He explained he would be completely erase all data on the disk hard drive then I'm gone come with it until it crashed at 12% and said hit any key to continue when I did all this I had was a blank screen Toshiba. I did it again and this time he got up to 60% then it is the same thing as now when I turn on the laptop it say "planned smart failure hard disk 4 Toshiba MK8037GSX-(S1) WARNING: immediately back up your data and replace your hard drive, a failure may be imminent press F1 to continue."

So do you have any ideas as to what the problem is and will be I need to replace his drive hard as the laptop is a little over a year old and has not been used much?

Help me please anyone!

Hello

I'm sorry to say, but I fear that your HARD drive will die soon. You must, as soon as possible, back up all important data and get the new HARD drive. The replacement is not so complicated and you can do it alone.

If you need assistance please let us know. There are a lot of people on this forum with a lot of experience and. You're not alone ;)!

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) failure hard disk

    Hello

    My computer is Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) purchased Oct 2007, running Vista 32 bit. He was always a bit skittish and prone to crashing. The first time I ever did a Windows Update it projected blue, so I restored and never updated since.

    The other day it started to emit beeps during startup, and while I could then get into, I think that the hard drive has failed, because now it runs very slow and crashes.

    Think the forum that this laptop could never be made to be stable and reliable?

    The hard drive is hard to change? I do it myself.

    There the drive hard replacement somewhere online instructions?

    Should what model of hard drive I install?

    SMART FAILURE SCHEDULED DISK HARD 0: ST9500420ASG-(S1)

    HOW SHOULD I DEAL WITH IT...

    Remove the disc, ride in a 2.5 external hard drive enclosure "and attach it to a system that works by USB.  You may still be able to read all or part of your data.  If you can't, you must then decide if the professional data recovery worth the cost - it can work in a few thousand dollars, however.

    When you replace the disk, make sure you buy an external hard drive backup so that you are not faced with this situation potentially very painful in the future.

  • Satellite L30 - 10V - CD/DVD read not all drives because Windows 7 upgrade

    I have a Satellite L30 - 10V which I've updated Vista to Windows 7 (full version). I am now unable to read any CD at all. He thinks that all CDs are totally blank new CD

    Anyone has any ideas what could be the problem?

    Hey,.

    > I have a Satellite L30 - 10V which I've updated Vista to Windows 7 (full version)
    Did you do an upgrade or complete new clean installation of your version?

    Anyway, the drive worked during installation that you was not able to install Windows. So I doubt it s hardware related issue

    In your case I would try to remove the upper and lower filters in the registry:
    1.demarrez-> Run-> Regedit
    2. navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    3. in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
    4.reboot.

  • Satellite C660 - Diagnosis indicates a failure hard disk

    Run the diagnostics on my two day old - Satellite C660 shows a failure on the hard drive. Check disk hard Windows ran without failure.

    Can I assume that it is a false indication by diagnosis of Toshiba? The thread on this topic is not conclusive on this issue.

    Thank you Fred

    Hi frredi,

    Diagnostic tool what you mean? It's the Toshiba Diagnostics tool that shows an error on the HARD disk?

    If Yes, you must contact the seller of the laptop and ask for replacement laptop. Bad HARD drive sector you can still get but he s not recommendable to save important data in this regard.

    So just give shop and take a new one. :)

  • Satellite P215 get SMART failure on hard drive

    Hello

    I've had my laptop for a year now, and just recently, I noticed everything using that everything has become much slower and more something else that I couldn't run as much multitasking I could before without the screen freeze and have to wait until he gets treated. The level of multitasking is not serious, I mean that a laptop of this caliber should be able to have a streaming of youtube video play without problem as both messenger and Microsoft Word have. Recently, it has been quite frustrating and makes me want to throw computer laptop in the room, but I persevere. Moreover, I also realized that the game I used to play works is no longer (I wonder if it's the same question)

    I formatted the hard drive and installed windows vista (with the CD that was given to me when I bought the computer) and the first time he had actually installation problems I had to do it twice. The second time it has installed fine and it worked for a week and then it started to slow down terribly again.

    After restart the computer message popped up indicating SMART: failure on hard drive Hitachi-(s1) 4, so I followed the instructions given by another thread with a similar problem. I tried the hitachi Drive Fitness Test and the program would not even load, it would get to the point where it says «Loading DFT»... ' and he would just stay there... I guess that is not compatible with Vista or something.

    What can I do in addition to evidence of the replacement of the hard drive? The cause of the downturn from the computer to the bass and the game does not work because of the HD about to fail? If there is a way to solve this problem, I would like to know

    Thank you
    Michael

    In my view the HARD disk, you should be exchanged and Yes, it could be the reason why the computer slows down, and some games do not work.
    I had the same problem a few years ago on my desktop PC computer is very slow and I can t install a game. Whenever I tried it, I got a BSOD. Then I switched the HARD drive and everything worked very well.

    I put t know why the Drive Fitness Test does not start on your computer, but if you get a SMART error HARD drive should be exchanged permanently.

    If your laptop is under warranty, you must contact an ASP. Then the repair should be free.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    To me, it seems that the HARD drive has developed a fault.
    Error message: error reading disk. Please press ctrl + alt + del to restart is a typical notification if something would be wrong with a HARD drive

    You can try to check the HARD disk using a disk HARD Drive Fitness Test.
    It s free tool google for it if you need details

    Run the test and check if the HARD drive is OK.
    No, then you will need a new HARD drive and you need to reinstall the operating system.

  • Satellite L30-105 - lack of HARD drive connector

    Hello

    just picked up this laptop Satellite L30-105 for his son who had some hard drive purchased.

    I see specs it's a disc sata hard again, but the problem is that the laptop seems to be missing the connector on the hard drive.

    The laptop has just 1 row of holes where the disk sata hard was 2.

    Anyone knows where to buy connector or any help would be great thanks dave.

    You are right.
    The laptop supports SATA 2.5 HARD disk and so you should be able to use a SATA 2.5 HARD.

    I'm not quite sure which adapter is absent, but my 2.5 SATA HDD contains a piece of plastic that is removable
    Maybe you need it however, I think you could ask for except if a mobile technician in downtown or you could order it from a Toshiba authorized service partner in your country.

    Are you sure it's the recovery disk?
    What is the content of the CD if you find Windows to display the contents of the CD/DVD?

    These messages appear normally if the CD is noisy and so it can t be read properly or in the worst cases the CD/DVD drive is faulty and should be replaced. :(

  • Satellite L650 - Windows detected a hard disk problem

    I have 9 as 4 months old satellite L650 that this microsoft Windows message keeps popping up. "Windows detected a hard disk problem, back up your files immediately to prevent the loss of information... etc" have I not a bum hard drive or is it a mistake?
    I have
    have the media discs to recover and this means that I have to reformat the HARD drive and try again. !

    Hi watthhel,

    I think the error message must be correct to Windows 7 and you must do what tells you the message: immediately back up your data and replace the HARD drive with a new one. In your case I would never save important files on the HARD drive. Too risky to lose important files

    Your laptop is 4 months old and that would mean it s covered by the warranty. Contact your local authorized service provider and ask for a replacement drive. They will exchange it and the service is free. :)

    Hello

    > My question is that the C drive has only 2 GB of software top

    I put t believe that! Always is that the device was shipped with Vista or am I wrong?
    I installed Vista on my laptop and the Vista installation needs about 17 18 GB on the HARD disk. Then why you are suggesting there is only 2 GB?

    You said 37GB free on the HARD drive. For me it ok s. 55 GB GB 37 GB = 18
