Satellite Pro C650 - 18 d - can I install any HARD SATA 2.5 drive "?

The evening

I need to replace a drive HARD defective (250 GB 5400rpms) on my Toshiba Satellite Pro C650 - 18 d. My question is can I buy any make and model of a SATA 2.5 "HDD? A different brand/model would hold in the HARD drive caddy or there should be a Toshiba SATA?

Thank you

Hi haverer,

> can I buy any make and model of a SATA 2.5 "HDD?
Yes, you can buy each HARD drive 2.5 SATA. There is no limitation to a certain brand or size, you can buy a HDD with 500 GB or more. Just make sure that it of a model with 9.5 mm in height, so you can install all models with this height.

Do you have more questions?

  • Satellite Pro C650 - what startup programs I can disable?

    After about two weeks with a new Satellite Pro C650 that I bought for my wife, a light user, she is about to pounce on me.

    Everything runs slowly. Click Start: wait. Open the control panel: wait. The time-out period is of the order of 20 to 30 seconds. Internet is often more slow - especially Internet Explorer, which often goes in a State does not. (Google Chrome run better even if it's not great either) Measures taken up to now include a defragmentation of the C: drive, which was 5% defragmented. I did a scan troubleshooting out of the control panel and it informs me that I have a lot of programs that run at startup and suggests that disable some. I had read previously that there is a problem with this Toshiba.

    The question therefore is what to disable? I don't know what most of the programs are or what they do. I'll list the programs here and then gladly take suggestions. Furthermore, BitDefender has ranked three times in the startup list. I have two of them disabled for what it's worth.

    The only apps I downloaded were BitDefender and Adobe Acrobat. McAfee antivirus has been removed. Other laptops in the House work fine with the same broadband wireless connection. Hoping someone can help and tell me what I can disable.

    The startup list:
    SAIICpl Application
    Synaptics Pointing Device Driver
    Message Center
    SmartFaceVWatcher
    Catalyst Control Center
    Nero BackItUp
    Default handler
    BitDefender 2011 (figure three times)
    Adobe Acrobat
    Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager
    All of these Toshiba applications:
    -Power Saver
    -Zoom utility
    -Flash Cards
    -ReelTime
    -TEMPRO
    -HDD SSD Alert
    -Volume regulators
    -Computer laptop registration
    -Gas station
    -Application of web camera

    Thank you.

    Hello

    First of all, you can discover yourself how unique and applications that are controlled by these applications use google for more details.

    But Nero BackItUp, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager can be disabled wihotu having issues with the laptop

    TEMPRO is a tool of Toshiba which analyzes systems and provides information on the new Toshiba driver updates
    It s your own decision whether or not you want to use
    Registration for laptop helps you to register the warranty of notebooks and Station Service provides an option to optimize the performance of laptops, but it s nice to have, but it of not very important

  • Satellite Pro C650 can't find our DHCP server

    Hello

    We just recived 8 new Satellite Pro C650 and care about their image.
    When connect us to our network via a cable and boot on LAN of the laptop can not find our DHCP server and so of does not obtain an IP address.

    If we connect to an another laptop\workstation in the same Manor, it works very well.

    All the settings are correct in the BIOS.

    Any ideas.

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if the settings of TCP/IP to connect to the local network.
    Network-> properties-> LAN (local area) connections-> TCP/IP-> properties

    Here, you should check if the options for the IP address, DNS are set to obtain automatically.
    In the advanced settings of TCP/IP in IP settings tab active DHCP must be visible.

    In addition, please check if all firewalls do not prevent the laptop to connect to the local network.

  • Satellite Pro C650: Need drivers Win XP

    Hello

    I am looking for a drivers audio xp for toshiba satellite pro c650-10J computer laptop.
    I found on the toshiba support site only Conexant drivers that are not good.

    Someone knows, where can I find different drivers?

    Hello

    Conexant audio driver on the European driver of Toshiba page is good.
    You must choose this driver v 3.80.0.0.

    But note; It is very important that you should install SP3 BEFORE install you the audio driver.

    There are some other threads in this forum about it, and the driver is ok.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - problem of disk - need new

    Satellite Pro C650 model number: PSC09A-01V021

    SMART Disk reported an unspecified problem of HARD drive & recommend the backup (done) & HARD drive replacement.
    It runs so slow, that it is unusable. Warranty has expired, I would like to replace the HARD drive myself.

    The failed drive is a Toshiba 320gig MK3265gsxn.
    I'm looking at a WD 500 G 16 M, 7200 RPM SATA 2.5 inch Scorpio WD5000BPKX as a replacement/upgrade.

    I guess that the new drive will be detected / Setup by the BIOS but I don't know if the recovery disks will work with this Western Dig, expansion & faster by car. Can someone advise please?

    Drive recovery questions.
    When I made the recovery discs using Toshiba Recovery Media Creator proposed programme marking the first discs of rare as Recovery Disk 1, 2 and so on. I guess that these disks are my backup of user data. Yes/No?

    The last disc was called Windows Recovery 64-bit environment. This is the factory default backup & must be installed first?
    Is it transfer the recovery Partition and install Windows on the new drive?

    Thank you

    GJL.

    Now when you need to swap the HARD drive I recommend exchanging it with SSD. It costs a little more but believe me laptop s performance will be much better. I ve made the m even and I so happy.
    Laptop starts faster and much better work.

    Disk recovery image is the original recovery image back-up and has nothing to do with your own settings.
    When you install portable aura of factory again and it will be the same situation when you started your laptop for the first time.
    In my opinion, avoid any problem created using drives with new HARD drive. In general there is no limitation and you can use different hard drives.

    In any case, think about SSD.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - cannot start Windows more

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C650 11Z model under Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm not very savvy computer. I can use my computer to perform tasks and use the software, but I m not very got when it comes to computer and tinkering under the hood, somehow.

    I was using the laptop yesterday evening to watch a You Tube playlist and was downloading a PDF 29MB file in the background. I have done this kind of thing before and never encountered any problems.

    When the download finished (I use Google Chrome) I clicked the button at the bottom left of the screen to open the download. You Tube then frozen.

    I could see the little green circle spinning around like loading upward download, but nothing was happening. Then Google Chrome no longer according to the bar at the top of the window.

    I tried CTRL + ALT + DEL, but the workload Manager wouldn t. The only thing I could do was turn off the laptop and running again, as it had frozen him completely. When I turned on it again, I had the Windows error recovery menu as shown in the following image.

    http://www.TechJaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Win7-error-recovery.PNG

    The problem is that none of these options does nothing. If you choose the recommended option (for example Startup Repair) it comes up with the gray bar saying Windows loads the files and then will just a black screen. By selecting Start Windows normally gets you to the swirling colorful circles that make up the logo Windows and he said: start Windows but still once, it does nothing but just stick to that.

    A friend told me that a BIOS reset * may help. However, I don't know how to get the BIOS on the laptop. He called Insyde H20 installed and I don't see the option to access the BIOS.

    Someone at - it ideas as to what could have wrong and how can I fix? I don't have a recovery disc as my laptop was bought for me by a charity. The warranty has expired now so that I can contact t their support line.

    To be honest I don't think BIOS has nothing to do with it. Start your laptop and press F8 several times to display the advanced startup options. You will find the option to start the operating system in safe mode.
    If please test and let us know what happen when you try to do.

  • Satellite Pro C650: USB flash memory starts to load then crashes

    Hello

    I have my new Satellite Pro C650 laptop for about 2 weeks and there is already a problem with it.
    When I insert a flash drive into a usb drive, it starts to load, but as soon as it loads it crashes as if I disconnected, and then start loading again again and again until I have unplug it really.

    The flash disk works fine on other computers, so it shouldn't be the problem.
    Device Manager indicates that my drivers are ok.
    Is not only the USB flash drive mouse works fine when I plug in usb...

    Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?
    If so, thanks in advance

    Hello

    Strange in your case I recommend you test another USB key into the Satellite laptop. I know you have tested this stick in other laptops, but it would be interesting to know how the other USB key would be instrumented C650.

    I recommend in addition updated the operating system Windows and the BIOS to the latest status.
    In addition, you should go to Device Manager and delete the list of devices USB controllers. Then restart the device and wait for windows has installed again all the USB controllers.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - cooling fan does not work

    My Satellite Pro C650 overheats and stops automatically within 20 minutes of leaving upwards. I checked the CPU fan and noticed that it does not turn upward, even if the laptop would become very hot. I tested the fan with a 9 volt battery and it works perfectly.

    Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is? And how to solve it.

    Thank you.

    > Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is?
    On this virtual path, no one can say with certainty what the problem is. We can only speculate what may be the problem.
    Usually, cooling fan starts immediately after starting the laptop slows down and offers the optimum temperature of material. After reading your ad I didn t understand how it works. He turns and there is no sign of life?
    Problem can be power.
    Cooling fan will be controlled by sensors of temperature and activity depends on the temperature of the material but if your machine cooling fan does not work, I imagine that there is no electric power.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - does not start

    Hey all,.

    My Satellite Pro C650 boot not beyond a certain point. I tried to start in all modes different for example safe mode, mode of networking,

    However this proved unsuccessful, the laptop freezes and I meet a constant and regular beep at the same point every time that I try to start. I even tried to start Linux 12.04 USB to see if it's hardware or software, unfortunately is the same, which means hardware failure.

    The problem is that I don't know the bios beep codes and I can't understand what needs fixing.
    I was hoping you could help me!

    Thanks :)

    I think you need professional help with this problem. I don't know if your laptop is always guaranteed to be valid, but in my opinion, you should contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. They have special diagnostic tools and hardware malfunction can be detected and repaired.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - USB ports now DEAD

    Over the past 48 hours have really struggled to get my USB ports work,
    Toshiba SATELLITE PRO C650 lappy running W7... At only 2 usb ports.

    A couple of days, I bought a new stick of memory... 16 GB SanDisk Cruzer Blade... He stuck in lappy and anything that happened outside my mouse attached wireless stopped working.
    Since then, the ports were completely dead. (stick now appears on anotherPC)
    That's what I did so far, after a search web solutions thro...

    Device Manager display ports everything is OK with no exclamations...
    When I insert any USB device... no sound confirmation of PC and Dev Mgr flinch...
    Tried to uninstall port/hubs and leaving W7 re-install them using... Still dead...
    Trying to remove battery and power sector during the centuries, then re start off the power... Still dead...

    I think that my last resort looking for a factory system by default re install... but one have a mountain of things astro which must be saved and cannot be done through many many discs.
    I really want to be sure ive tried everything before you do this.

    Could I have really damaged the MB. ??
    I now nowhere so fast if theres anyone out there has any suggestions please shout...

    > I think that my last resort looking for a factory system by default re install... but one have a mountain of things astro which must be saved and cannot be done through many many discs

    Even if it s really painful to get everything installed it again, I would recommend to recover the laptop using the Toshiba recovery disc or HARD drive recovery.

    > Could I have really damaged the MB. ??
    Well, it's hard to say before trying the recovery procedure.
    If the USB ports are not working after using the recovery disk (or HDD recovery), then of course: the mobo may be affected, therefore, in my view, the laptop must be set to the factory settings.
