• Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

  I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

  I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

  Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
  If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

  You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
  In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

  Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

  Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

• Satellite L450 - install the new hard drive

  Hi, I hope someone can help, I have a Satellite L450, which has windows 7 preloaded on it. However, the hard drive became corrupt and unable to use, unfortunately I never backed up anything.
  Can I buy a new hard drive and install it? If yes how to operate as I no o/s on cd?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi 4ordie,

  Of course, you can replace the HARD drive that s no problem. Replace HARD drive has 5 or 10 minutes and you can do it yourself because it s not very complicated.

  New drive HARD doesn t contain all the files and you will need to install the operating system and all the drivers yourself but I m wondering why you don t have an installation disc (recovery). It s clearliy mentioned in the manual how to do this.

  In any case, no, you can order a Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings:

• Satellite A100-529 and new HARD drive

  I bought a new HARD drive: Samsung HM320JI (320 GB/SATA/5400 RPM / 8 M I)
  When I turn on my laptop, it loads as 60%, and then it crashes. Why? It is not compatible?

  Satellite A100-529
  PSAA2e-01J00ZG3
  BIOS: 2.30

  What should I do?
  I formatted my new HDD using my desktop PC

  I don't understand what you mean with these 60%. 60% of what?

  In my opinion the new HARD drive should work fine with your Satellite A100.
  As Alex has already written fair use facilities for the installation of the OS recovery disk and I think everything should be OK.

• Satellite A100 - 551 (PSAA2E) - new HARD drive freeze computer

  Hello

  Sorry for my bad English, I'm french.

  I have a Satellite A100-551 and original 80 GB SATA HARD disk is dead. It works enough, but there are a lot of mistakes on its surface and the pc go very slow!
  So, I buy another drive.
  This one: [samsung 250 GB | http://www.rueducommerce.fr/Composants/showdetl.cfm?product_id=422226&option=1]

  I have install on the pc but when I start the pc freeze.
  At startup, there is a moment where a normal message saying that I can access the F2 BIOS with a progressbar for loading.

  The freezing of progressbar and nothing else has add.
  If I press F2 nothing adds.
  I can't do nothing.

  Is it possible to get started with my new HARD drive?

  Is there some hard drive not recommended?

  Thanks for your replies.

  Strange, but perhaps the new HARD drive is defective or not compatible with your laptop.
  Have you tested the new HARD drive in a laptop or in an external HARD drive enclosure? It work?

  You can go into the BIOS without HARD drive?
  Check it!

  In your case I would use check the HARD drive in another laptop first, and then maybe you should try another of your laptop HARD drive.

  Good luck!

• Install a new hard drive - need advice!

  I intend to install a new hard drive on my Compaq C500
  All hard drives are the same physical size or do I need a specifically for this laptop?
  I do not have the windows install disks, but I have the sticker on the laptop with the product key to this topic, is it possible to download and install it?
  And what I have to install the drivers manually or it will install when I install the OS?
  Thank you

  I don't know of anyone who has a copy of it,
  Is there a way I can download and install with the product key that I have?

  Yes, but if it is not an official partner, I can't give you the link.  And currently I don't know any for Windows Vista.
  For Windows 7 (Digital River is an official partner of Microsoft): [link]

• My Satellite cannot recognize the new HARD drive

  I bought a new hard drive for my laptop. After installing it, I didn't get the message none found a fixed drive. I updated the bios from the Toshiba site and the same message is still there.

  I also tried the drive in another laptop. It has been recognized correctly, so I formatted one installed Windows XP Pro top. It worked ok so I tried again in my laptop but message saying put system disk and press any key. So I put XP disc in it starts the installation starts to transfer files and doesn't give the message no hard drive found so it still does not find the hard drive.

  Please can someone help?

  Hi Ken

  It would be nice to know the name of cell exactly.
  I guess that the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive due to the size of the HARD drive.

  It would be very interesting to know if the HARD disk is compatible with this laptop and supported

• New hard drive, need to install Windows.How to do?

  I installed a new hard drive in my Toshiba laptop. I've had Windows 8 before and would like it installed again, but don't know how? Buy a disc?

  You can download the files to install Microsoft here, but that will not include the special Toshiba drivers and software.  Without the special software of Toshiba, will not work a lot of things on your computer, such as your video driver and keyboard/trackpad.   You may be able to download the Toshiba drivers later on the Toshiba site.

  It would be better to just get the official installation disc Toshiba Windows 8, Toshiba can send you if you call them.

• Question about Satellite A50 - 542 and new hard drive

  A50 - 542 my hard drive just crashed. I am looking for a 60 GB hard drive to replace it. Which hard drive would be compatible with this model?

  Hi mate,

  you need a disk IDE because only this one fits into your machine (there are new standard SATA with two long hard disk connectors and the IDE from an old 40-pin at the back of the HARD drive)

  The best choice would be a disc toshiba or something of hitachi, since they are very good brands. I say take some readers with 100 or 120 gigabytes of capacity.

  Welcome them

• Satellite Pro 2100 and new hard drive

  Hello

  I saw on another post that L0nestar has installed a Western Digital WD2500BEVE (250 GB, 5400 RPM) in a Pro 2100.
  The question I have is what the interface is SATA or EIDE? The original drive indicates it is a SATA interface, but the WD2500BEVE is an EIDE interface?

  Hope someone can clear this up for me.

  See you soon.

  AFAIK all older models of laptops have hard drives with interface EIDE. Satellite Pro 2100 comes with disk HARD Enhanced IDE (ATA-5).

  Good bye

• Satellite M30-841: what new HARD drive I can use?

  Hello

  It s is HARD disk controller.
  You can use the 2.5 IDE HARD drive.

  But if the IDE controller supports only 28 bit LBA then you could use max 120 GB HDD s.
  If the IDE controller supports 48-bit LBA, you can then use more big s HDD.

  48-bit LBA is supported because ATA-6 sets (also known as Ultra DMA/100, Ultra DMA mode 5 or Ultra-ATA100) IDE controller

  I recomment to install hardware detection tool like Everest home Edition...
  This will be porovide details...

• Satellite L750 - access to the HARD drive recovery partition

  I need to reset the drive to factory settings, but can not access the recovery starts. I read the manuals

  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD16036F0000R01.htm

  This information do not work for me. This utility, I did not at all.

  I tried to run the recovery partition, I disable for laptop and lit keyboard '0' key and tried other keys F1 - F12, but system just beep with a blank black screen and then Toshiba displays menu and the Windows loading as usual.

  He has a record of factory "HDDRecovery" on the logical drive D: with all default recovery files

  Missing a very important information: preinstalled OS the original that you have with your laptop or you have installed a clean version of Windows?

  When you buy the new book it comes with factory settings. If long your laptop has this plant, you will be able to install the recovery image according to instructions with F8 at startup. If you change something that it will no longer work (install own os, partition structure).

  In this case you must use the created recovery disc but I assume you didn't create one although it is clearly described in the document s user manuals.

  Problem is that you can't do much. Either it works or not. If there is no way to install image recovery I'm afraid you need to order the new Mr. recovery disk you can do it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

• Satellite a210-171 needs new HARD drive

  I took the laptop to the computer repair shop, they want to charge me £100 to replace the HDD with a 500 GB one and reinstall windows. I am not satisfied with the service, the length of time necessary to diagnose the problem or the price then I refused to let them fix it. It took 3 days to identify the problem and more they can not even give me a quote until they had installed the new hard drive!

  Is it easy enough for me to replace the HARD drive? I don't really know where he is, than only what disk HARD buy! I have the original recovery disk, it will load everything once I have replace the HARD drive?
  I need really, really little help and advice here!
