Satellite Pro C850-1EQ does support Sata III?

I just got a new laptop Satellite Pro C850-1EQ and seeks to replace the slow drive 5400 RPM with an SSD.

I can't find this machine anywhere - SATA specifications it supports Sata III (6 Gb/s)?

Thank you

Gareth

Hello

As far as I know, that it supports SATA II (3 Gb/s)
But you could install some software like diagnostic tools * SiSoft SANDRA *.
This would allow all of the details about the hardware configuration.

Could you confirm that its SATA II?

    Hello everyone!

    I face a problem after the upgrade of my TOSHIBA SATELLITE PRO C850-1EQ preinstalled version of windows 8 to 8.1.

    After installation windows ask the product key to activate windows 8.1, but I don't have this activation key.

    I called Microsoft (Greece), but could not help me and told me to call Toshiba (Greece).
    The man of Toshiba technical support told me to remind Microsoft!

    In addition, he told me to check here (https://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/windows8_1-upgrade-stepbystep/) before starting the process. Step # 7 says "don't forget your Windows password. You may need to enter after update. »

    Now, I'm back to Win 8.

    I tried to find that the use of various tools, but nobody found the key.
    In addition, after 8.1 install, a message says:

    + Error code: 0xC004C003 +.
    + The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked.

    I trust Toshiba and I want to use the latest version of w8.1.

    No, the preinstalled Windows 8 Toshiba is already activated and during the upgrade to 8.1 Win will not ask you to enter the serial key...

    Windows 8 is activated?

    Try this: create DVDs of Toshiba Recovery (or flash USB memory stick). Use the recovery media to recover the computer laptop back to factory settings. Update of the Windows 8 at the last State and then do the upgrade to 8.1 Win

    This is not something to do with installed programs is not something to do with the browser settings.
    restarting the computer works in a short time, but that is a long time, it's really annoying because I use this for work and study!

    > is there a permanent solution to this problem?

    The question is what causes this problem? Is it related hardware or software related issue?

    Why n t connect a USB keyboard just to check if the same would happen?

    In case the USB keyboard would work fine, I guess that the internal keyboard failures and the solution would be a simple replacement of the defective part.

    Is the sata controller transfer mode of sata III (6 Gb/s) data, or if it'll work in sata II (3 Gb/s)?

    Thanks for the replies!

    I think it depends on the SSD drive.

  • Qosmio X 500 does support SATA III controller?

    Hello

    I think of one of my drives hard X500s replace with an SSD.
    So now I'm wondering whether to buy a SATA II (3 Gbps) or SATA III (6 Gbps).

    I understand that both standards will work on any SATA controller, but it the X 500 has a controller SATA III, so that I can take advantage of the extra speed of SSD? Because if not, I'd settle for the SATA II slower (and cheaper).
    Thanks in advance,

  • Satellite Pro C850-1EQ - 8 tiles Windows does not work

    Hello

    I'm desperate for help try to solve this problem with my laptop. When I got my laptop (at Christmas) the majority of the tiles on the home screen windows 8 worked, however after a week or two they have gradually stopped working, which is very frustrating.

    When I click on a tile, it opens on the screen but the wheel continues to turn and nothing loads. I spoke to Microsoft online, however, they said that the problem with Toshiba as the laptop was purchased with Windows 8 already integrated.

    Suggestions, they did involving anti-virus and updates did not work.
    The most frustrating part is the Windows tile store does not work so I can't try to updates or new downloads to see if they will not solve the problem.

    Of course, I can use my laptop without the tiles, but I'm upset that I paid extra for Windows 8 and chooses the best part of it not working!

    Any advice on what to do next would be great, thanks in advance.

    Guess what? Try to restore the system Windows 8 back to the factory settings.
    Here you will find documentation how to do this:

  • Satellite Pro C850-1HE does not receognize new RAM Micron modules

    Greetings

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite C850. I bought it on amazon UK and it came with 2 GB of RAM.

    I'm really happy with it, but 2 GB of ram is no longer enough.

    Last week, I bought 2 GB more RAM.
    The packaging said KomputerBay, but the manufacturer is in fact "Micron". So I installed and activated on my laptop, but my laptop does not recognize the memory of Micron.

    The bios says I have "2048MB" of ram installed, instead of 4096 MB. Therefore, Windows and Linux can recognize only 2 GB of ram.

    Then, I removed the ram original samsung and pressed the power button with only the Micron ram installed. Unfortunately, the computer has not yet shown any image on the screen.

    I have already tested the Micron on an old laptop Toshiba Satellite L650 module and it works like a charm. Thus, the ram is not defective. In addition, the ram is placed correctly because CPU - Z it detects correctly:

    http://i.imgur.com/DMROayG.PNG

    Also, I've updated the BIOS and I use recent toshiba Web site orders. Is there anything I can try to make this ram works on my laptop?

    > Is there anything, I can try to do this ram works on my laptop?
    I don't think so. For me it's the compatibility issue. Send it back and buy 100% compatible module for your laptop model.
    Your laptop model can be improved up to 16 GB and compatible RAM modules have tracking numbers:
    2 GB DDR3-1600-PA5037U-1M2G
    4 GB DDR3-1600-PA5037U-1M4G
    8 GB DDR3-1600-PA5037U-1M8G

  • Satellite A200 - 1 GB does support SATA 300 HARD drive?

    I want to spend my Sat A200 - 1 GB hard disk with a 7200 RPM one... but they are all SATA300 models.
    Is this speed mode supported by the bios, motherboard and sata controller of this laptop?

    I just want to be sure that the hard drive works at its maximum speed capability and the sata and the mobo will not be a bottleneck...

    If Yes, the sata controller driver whichsis?... I want this wake in my own vista installation disc.

    Hello!

    Yes, you can use a disk with SATA300 mode but it only works in normal mode SATA no more at maximum speed. The Satellite A200 supports only SATA 1.0 mode (SATA150).

    You can use a HARD drive with 7200 RPM, this isn't a problem.

    What HARD drive capacities are supported, that you can see in the user manual. Look in Chapter 1.

    The SATA driver is in the Intel Storage Manager package.

    Hello

    > 1. Once I replaced the hard drive (I bought the same exact model reader) can I use recovery on it support to set up as if it were to return to the factory settings?
    Yes, you must use the recovery disk and it s recommended to use this support to put the laptop back to factory settings.

    > 2. Product key of Windows 8 is not anywhere on the laptop box and I have not received an email from windows when I bought the laptop. Will it take this product key when you use the recovery on the new hard disk media and if yes, how can I find it?

  • Satellite R830 - support Sata III for SSD drives

    Hello

    Why Toshiba Satellite R830 does not support Sata III, although the plug to motherboard. indicate that it is possible?

    So you can not significantly increase the performance of your laptop by replacing the HARD drive with disk SSD Sata III. Is it possible to activate the Sata III (6 Mbps) on R830?

    All the system settings? It's also kind of bios update request necessary support SSD and SATA III...

    Any help is appreciated! :)

    > It shows that SATA III is supported, but when you install the SSD SATA III disc it does not work with higher speeds to ~ 250 MB/s (cases Crucial M4).

    From my own experience many SSD readers need a updated firmware that is provided by the manufacturers of SSD drives.

    But readers in the R830 SSD seems to support these specifications:
    Host interface: Max 300 MB/s
    Reading data supported: Max 250 MB/s
    Writing data supported: Max 160 MB/s

    By the way: the R830 supports a Mobile Intel HM65 Express Chipset and the chipset supports the storage interface high speed supports up to 6 Gb/s transfer rate for improved data access. Provides up to 6 SATA ports, 3 Gb/s with up to 2 ports support 6 Gb/s transfer rate.

  • Satellite Pro L670 - 14 M and SATA 6 GB/S Support

    Hello

    I recently bought an SSD (Crucial M4) for my Toshiba Satellite Pro L670 - 14M. He behaves well and certainly improves performance. However, when I test my SSD benchmarks, it reaches only about 230 - 260 MB/s reading speeds on sequential when it needs to get up to 500 MB/s as advertised.

    I'm assuming it's because my SSD is running via SATA 3 gb/s, so I ask, my laptop does support SATA 6 Gbps? If not, this isn't a big disappointment, although it would be great to have up to 500 MB/s sequential read speeds for this performance gain.

    Someone can confirm on the question of whether my laptop (Satellite Pro L670 - 14M) supports SATA 6 Gbit/s or not?

    Hello

    The laptop is equipped with a Mobile Intel HM55 Express Chipset and the Intel Core i3 - 330 M processor.

    That's why the SATA II controller agreed that 3 Gbps

    Hi there are people.

    Looking at the options available in the decision-making FCPGA988 and chipset Intel HM70 there seems to be a variety of the i7 available for use.

    The laptop supports processors with a TDP plu max than 35w?
    The bios supports all the CPU upgrade options?

    In this forum, you will find various discussions on the theme of CPU upgrade.

    Paolo and Macius posted some information about the situation of CPU upgrade.
    As you can read in another thread, the CPU upgrade isn't supported. Updates can be made at your own risk, and no one can say if CPU supported by the chipset would be supported by the BIOS.
