Satellite M70 - 122 disk upgrade

Dear all

I want to upgrade the standard 60 GB HDD of my M70-122. I found some interesting patterns that dissipate even less power than the Toshiba. Can someone tell me if my laptop can take 120 or 160 GB hard drives? Has anyone completed this upgrade so far? Thank you

Hello

I put t know where swordbreaker found this information, but you should be careful with these large hard drives. Sometimes the BIOS don't support these large HARD drive sizes and thus the HARD drive might be not recognized by the BIOS.
Test if the HDD before you buy!

Good luck

  • How to replace battery for RTC for Satellite M70-122?

    I have a portable Satellite M70-122 and it sews there is a problem with the battery RTC (BIOS) that he loses all the settings. I took it for the Department of service here in Thessaloniki in Greece and they told me the battery is stuck to the main Board and I have to buy a new laptop instead.

    Does anyone has an idea on how to change the battery of the CCF (BIOS)?

    Hello

    In many cases (also for the M70 Sat) battery RTC is soldered on the motherboard. In this case it cannot be replaced

    The RTC battery provides the power to keep the current date, time and other configuration information in memory, while the computer is turned off. The RTC battery is charged by the adapter or the main battery while the computer is on.
    So theoretically if the RTC battery is empty, you could load it again to connect the AC adapter and execution of the laptop for about 24 hours.

    Hello Faizan

    I have another idea

    Maybe your recovery CD is ok, but the CD/DVD drive is malfunctioning and therefore cannot read the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    Have you tried to boot from another CD bootable like; Live Linux CD or Windows XP original CD?

    You should do this to make sure that's exactly wrong

    However, if one of the parties mentioned (CD or recovery CD/DVD drive) malfunctions, you must contact the ASP in your country for a replacement or a fix.

  • Satellite M70 - 122 memory module attachment

    Evening! Can I attach the memory module 1 GB DDR2 PC2-4300 on my laptop Satellite M70-122 by myself and maybe there's a certain manual for such action?

    Hello

    usually it shouldn´t be a problem to swap the memory module on your computer. Unfortunately there is no manual, but you can visit the following site for more information on this topic: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/

    In your case, you should only remove some of the cover from the bottom of the machine which is fixed with a screw, behind this fixed cover the Bank of memory where the memory modules are installed.

    Just check out the site...

  • Satellite M70-122: Question about the necessary drivers for Win XP Pro

    Hello
    I formatted my Satellite M70-122 in order to install Win XP - Pro and so I lost all drivers and programs pre installed. It seems that the recovery CD is of no use in this case, and I was wondering if there was a driver CD, I could order.
    I found the drivers (62 so far) for my machine on the Toshiba site and I was as well, I was wondering if I should download and install all. What about programs like the CD/DVD burner?
    Where can I get them back?

    Thank you.

    Christophe

    Hello

    The Tools & Utilities CD but that contains all the necessary drivers is not delivered with the unit, can be created by the user himself. If the unit is installed with recovery media you can find under Toshiba assist > protect & difficulty > create CD drivers & tools.

    All these drivers, tools & utilities that you can use for your own installation. Otherwise you need to download them from Toshiba download page, and please check the instructions facilities document and install all things in order. Order of the facilities is very important.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite M70 258: HDD upgrade question - what is the maximum size supported

    I need to upgrade the hard drive from my Toshiba Satellite M70-258.
    I would like to know what is the maximum size of the disk that I can install it.
    I would like to know if it is suportts Sata drives.

    Thank you in advance.

    Best regards

    Fernando Silva

    The problem is that there is no official information on the maximum size of HARD drive on laptop series different. If we can only speculate on the supported formats.

    But I found it here in the forum:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=93195𖰋

    The user has updated the own M70 with the 160 GB drive HARD Toshiba MK1637GSX and it works.
    So maybe this info helps a bit.

    Good bye

  • Satellite M70 needing an upgrade of RAM?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite M70 who suffers.
    It's all slow and despite my music collection among other major programs to transfer on a drive external HARD, my laptop frequently slows down and blocks much to my annoyance.

    I regularly have a frag my HD on a base twice a week which helps a little, and I delete the temporary files, the Recycle Bin as well at the end of each month, but nothing seems to speed it up significantly. I run Spyware Doctor, but he does not reveal anything that would explain such a slow performance.

    Could someone advise me what to do?
    I asked for advice in this regard other suggestions is considering upgrading the RAM in an attempt to speed it up.

    Kind regards

    WMorgan86

    Hello

    In your case I would check and start the MSCONFIG and would disable some background process is not necessary in the Start button.

    The upgrade of RAM would be useful too.
    The M70 would support max 2 GB of RAM and you need DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules!

    Instruction how to upgrade the RAM you will find in the user manual!

  • Need Satellite M70 Recovery disk

    Hello

    whenever one make a post the next day, it will be deleted...
    Could someone tell me why... ?

    I need a recovery CD for my Satellite M70.
    No doubt this question is asked before... But I really need a help?

    Jerry

    If you need a recovery disk, then you need to ask your ASP in your country for this disc.

    In very rare cases, you will not be able to order a recovery disc, if the laptop series is too old. In this case that you will need to install the Windows operating system using the disk from Microsoft and then you can download and reinstall the driver from Toshiba which you might find on the page of Toshiba Europe.
