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

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!

Good bye

    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:

  • Satellite M70: Question about types of RAM

    Hey,.

    I plan to buy some additional RAM for my Satellite M70. On the Toshiba site, there are 2 types of 1 GB of RAM memory available: PA3411U-2M1G and PA3411S-2M1G. The other costs twice as much as the first, although they are all two 1 GB DDR2 PC2-4300. Can anyone explane me the differences between these two?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    The differences are not known to me. I think that one is a little older and the new version of the module is more expensive.

    I found it compatible: DDR2 400/533 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G)

    You know this site of memory?

    Hello

    I studied a bit on the net and found this site useful:
    http://www.ISD.Toshiba.com.au/71/live.dll/topic/content/previous_models.jsp?CATOID=-8156

    It seems that the Satellite M70 PSM73A - 00K 007 was designed for an Australian market.
    In this case, you should check the page of the Australian driver Toshiba for the correct drivers.

  • Satellite M70: Need to dutch version windows recovery CD

    I bought my satellite M70 (PIXMANIA) online store. Although the site was Dutch, the version of windows on my laptop has been French. Can someone make me a recovery with a Dutch version of windows CD?

    Thanks Geert.

    Hello

    The fact is that laptops are delivered with the Toshiba recovery CD and CD have the same language as the country where the phone was purchased.
    If you bought the laptop in France then the CD is in French, if you buy the laptop in the Netherlands, the CD is in Dutch.

    What you can do is to install the original Microsoft Windows, then install drivers Toshiba and tools.

  • Satellite M70-350 - 633 Mhz DDR2 Ram work?

    I have a Satellite M70-350 and on that I have 512 Mo DDR2-533 (266 Mhz)
    I know I can go 2Gb maximum.

    My question; If I put on my Lalonde DDR2-633, it will work or not?

    I think that you could use, but the module will not work with full 667 Mhz, because the FSB is limited to 400 Mhz.

    That is why it is foolish to buy a 667 Mhz module, if the laptop it will use only with 400 Mhz max.

  • Satellite-C55-A-1NU - upgrade of RAM and SSD upgrade information

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1NU and I want to know if it is possible to replace the optical drive with an SSD? Can someone tell me what I need to do? What type of rack and SSD should I buy. Thank you

    I also want to improve the ram memory, the laptop has only 1 slot 4 GB ddr3 1600 mhz, but is single channel. Which model should I buy to work in dual channel I use cpu-z to identify the model and it shows me hmt451s6mfr8a do I need exactly this or I can put another ty of manufacturing 2.

    This upgrade with SSD is not supported by Toshiba, so everything you do is at your risk. Check this forum please. If I m remembering although some people have already posted own experiences.
    I think that in most cases they ordered this caddy HDD/SSD but the drive was not recognized at all.

    In my opinion, you must perform these updates.

    RAM
    Up to 16 GB of RAM according to specification for laptop, you can put on level and on the lower part under the cover of memory, you should find two memory locations. How to change RAM is described in s. manuals check please page 72.

    The memory modules are compatible RAM for your laptop model:
    4 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M4G
    8 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M8G

  • Satellite M100 (PSMA0A-0J4002) - upgrade of RAM modules?

    Hello

    I want to expand the capacity of my laptop from 512 MB to 2 GB memory because it's slower and slower. What type of memory should I get and what is the maximum number of memory my phone supports?

    Is there someone who could help me with this?

    Will be highly appreciated.

    Thank you

    :-)

    Hey mate,

    I searched a bit using Google and it seems that you can upgrade your laptop computer to the maximum of 2 GB of RAM. This means that you can purchase two modules with 1 GB of capacity.
    AFAIK you need DDR2-667 modules

    You buy a provider of authorized service or in the Internet modules. I have good experiences with the Kingston modules. :)

  • Re: Satellite M70-142 - cannot move the RAM to 4 GB of RAM

    Hallo,

    I have a toshiba m70-142, I want to use 4 GB of ram, but I can't go up to 2 GB.

    If I put 4 giga pc won't start, screen black on startup and I cannont go into bios settings - it's a truble bios I think.

    I update the bios phoenix 1.70.

    I use Windows xp and linux, but this is not a SO truble.

    Hello

    First of all are you sure laptop chipset can handle 4 GB of RAM?
    As far as I know two DDRII SO-DIMM up to 2 GB can be improved through expansion memory slot.

    Memory max possible usually depends on the chipset. In order to check the chipset of the motherboard. Then you could check the properties of the chipset and can know if 4 GB of RAM are supported by the chipset.

    PS; 32 bit OS can manage 3.2 GB RAM max

  • 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

  • Satellite A500 - 1 GR - upgrade memory RAM but 3 GB of usable system memory

    I have upgraded my laptop to 8 GB (2 * 4 GB) ram. A 64 bit version of Windows 7 shows that I have 8 GB of memory, but there are only 3 GB of usable system memory. How do I use the 8GB. My Bios version is 2.00. In the Bios, I have not found the option 'enable the memory remapping feature '.

    This option doesn't exist in the BIOS and everything is controlled automatically. The BIOS update will not change.
    As much as I know about laptops Toshiba you cannot force for laptop to use a set amount of RAM.
