Satellite L500D - replacing the DVD - RW drive

I have a model of Satellite L500D PSL T6A-015003. (portable)

Recently I placed a CD in the DVD RW drive and the CD did not play.

When I removed the CD, the disc of black Center that keep the CD etc up to were broken on the disk. The black disc was stuck in the CD I pulled out and a small piece and spring also fell out.

Can I get a replacement black Center disk or do I have to buy a replacement DVD RW drive. If I have to buy a replacement drive, can someone please tell me where I can buy one, I'm in Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.

I have a few details to the reader, these are:

HL data storage
Super multi DVD re writer
Model GT20N (7 7 ATAK)
Serial number BOCRGTB831062

I appreciate any help on this

In my opinion, you should buy another ODD and of course identical. You have any important data on this piece of hardware so use Google and check if you can find an online store in your country where you can order.
In the worst cases contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask if they can order it for you.

  • M30 - 107 - replace the DVD - RW drive?

    I replace the DVD - RW drive in my laptop. I was wondering if someone could tell me the steps that would be involved in it, or else where I might be able to find this information.

    Thank you!

    Hi Philippe,.

    Feliks is altogether correct with his comments about your request. Because the device is "fixed" in your notebook will invalidate you your warranty if you replace yourself.

    However, as with most laptops, CD/RW can be removed if you really want to. It is normally split into place and then fixed by one or two screws. For example, my A30 is secired by a single accessible screw from the base of the laptop. I don't know about the model M30 you need so you will need to check where it is attached.

    Once the screws are released, the unit can be slipped out of its slot.

    You should then be able to find the label on the device and this will tell you the serial number and model.

    If you are replaceing with a similar device, then you will probably have to remove the plastic frame and cut panels and mounting brackets and adapt them to the new unit.

    Replace the unit and the re - fix it with the screws and the work is done then.

    You can, of course, replace your device with another (Toshibe notebooks) do use several different, but there is no guarantee that you new unit will work properly without having to install new drivers for it.

  • Replace the DVD RW Drive (Sftware)

    Hi I have a m8013w desktop pc. I have lightscribe. My DVD drive has failed and I ordered a new one that comes with the lightscribe software. My question is that I have to use the software installation disc which will come with the new drive or am I ready for departure without having to reinstall the software. I have now. I'm on the other procedure like uninstall in Device Manager and replacing the drive. I'm not sure how my software would be affected and the purpose of the disk that is shipped if I have lightscribe. Or are there other things on the installation disc. It is not mentioned in the instructions. Thank you.

    Keith

    You don't need to do anything about this either except to replace the DVD drive... do not worry about the installation of new software or uninstalling the driver from Device Manager.

  • How to install the recovery on 5200 satellite image using the DVD USB drive

    Hello

    I have a problem with a 5200-902 Satellite that has the corrupted DVD - ROM, and I can't find the room to change. (model DVD: uj - 810 b)
    But I would like to reinstall the laptop with the recovery CD and I will not be able to enter the BIOS to change the boot order and start with a USB DVD - ROM.
    I removed the HARD drive and reinstall the WXp Prof by another machine, but when I restart the 5200 I read this message "error nel caricamento del operating system."

    When turning I press F2-F10-F12 but if I select another boot device starting the laptop by network.
    Can you help me get this book by an external USB DVD-ROM?

    Thank you

    There is no test in the past, but I guess you have to do on the track:

    Start your laptop by using the MS-DOS boot disk
    Load the MS-DOS driver for external DVD drive to access
    Boot the CD of facilities here in the hope that it will market

  • Satellite Pro M70, Possible replace the DVD - RW drive?

    I thought that in the future come lightscribe Slim DVD - RW. Is it possible to remove the build - in the disc that came with the computer, with a slim-line DVD - RW. I think the connection, it is standard on all readers optical slim for laptops, or is it IDE/SATA or something like that?

    Hi whc

    Physically, it is possible to remove all parts of the laptop. On your device should not be a problem at all. The problem is the compatibility of the player.

    Each car will not work (can not recognized correctly) on each laptop Toshiba and, in my opinion, you should check the compatibility of the player by the service partner before buying one of them. Your unit is a mobile most recent with fantastic super multi DL drive. As James said, wait and you'll see if Toshiba will be those and also compatible drivers for your device.

    Thank you all

    Hello

    I think that it should be possible, but we need to find an internal Bluray drive with compatible master/slave/c-salt settings.
    Optical disc with bad settings would not be recognized by the BIOS.

    As far as I know that some Toshiba laptops are equipped with an internal bluray drive.
    I recommend a compatible player requesting an ASP.

    Is it possible to remove this message?

    Hello

    As far as I know that this message can not be eliminated and it happens every time if you want to use the drive is not compatible. Always is it that all readers may not work with all models of laptops.

    In this case, fundamental problem is the pin assignment. It is not the same in all players.

  • Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

    I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

    The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=IG0lW7t92bI

    BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

    WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

    Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

    + The message was edited: link has been removed ad channel may not +.

    Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
    Be careful about this.
