• Satellite Pro M30 - compatible DVD players

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro M30 and the optical block has problems, recognizing most of my DVDs.
  I want to change the drive, does anyone know which are the models compatible with this machine?
  The real player is Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-R6112.

  Thank you
  Daniel

  Hello

  As far as I know this unit has DVD +-R/RW (DualDrive) and in my opinion the best solution is to swap it with the same. On this way, you will be sure that everything works correctly.

  Unfortunately, there is no public document on the hardware upgrade and just Toshiba service partners can tell you more about it.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A10 - updated DVD player

  Hello. I bought this laptop with a DVD player, but upgrade to a DVD - RW so that I can burn DVDs. Anyone know if it is possible to buy an internal DVD RW burner drive for this model of Satellite Pro or should I just a USB external DVD burner?

  Thank you

  Hiya,

  You can certainly replace your DVD drive with a new DVD burner, but you will need to make sure that you get a new device with the same form factor (physical dimensions) and also one that is on the characteristics of good connection (master, slave, or C/salt).

  I suggest that you only contact your nearest ASP to check compatible DVD burners.

  Kind regards

• Satellite Pro M30: What DVD burner is compatible?

  Hi people, ask yourself if you can help.

  I have a sat Pro M30 but it came with a CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive. I decided that I would be able to write DVDs with it also. Can someone point me in the direction of a substitute for the current drive - I really don't want an external, but a replacement for one that is already there. Product ID and where to buy would be really nice.

  Thank you
  Richard.

  Hi Richard

  As far as I know MS M30 is similar to Satellite M30. As far as I know that the Satellite M30 has a Super-Multi drive Matsu * a UJ-820. I guess you can use the same player with your device.

• Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4): DVD player flashes continuously

  Hello
  I have been using a Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4) computer laptop for a while now without any major problems.

  My dvd drive (tsst TS-L632H harvest) no longer works since a few days now... Specifically, its LED is permanently orange flashing. The drivers are up to date. The eject button does not work either. No disc is inserted. The car seems fine in Windows Device Manager...

  If opened manually and if the disc is in the drive, I can't see all the data. Cannot start the disk either.

  I'm running Vista 32 bit SP1 with the latest bios available on the toshiba site (2.40).
  Since then, I need to fix the 'black screen' often reported problem before the login prompt, by using the windows installation disc

  Any help would be really appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  According to your page, you are not able to boot from any CD or DVD, not even the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  Am I wrong?

  To be honest, I've no idea why such question which went past but I think it s related to the hardware failure and that the replacement could help
  I put t know how old laptop is but perhaps the warranty is valid and it could be replaced for free

  What do you think?

• Satellite Pro A100: CD/DVD player will not play the audio CD or video DVD

  People,
  I have a Satellite Pro A100, with a RUG * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841 S Drive.
  It will read fine data disks, but refuses to play with the audio CD or video DVD.

  I tried to uninstall & Re-Installing DVD - RAM Driver;
  That got rid of the "IO error" that I received, unfortunately I don't notice the full error: S.
  He now just doesn't see the drive. Someone at - it ideas?

  I did a full windows update, and the Toshiba Diagnostic util tell me anything useful except "Fail" :(

  I found a thread in this forum that describes a similar theme:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19747&MessageID=72404

  Sometimes this error is displayed because the player does not support the environment.
  Always it is every way is supported by readers and I think that in the user manual, you will find an index CDs or DVDs compatible

  Maybe the drive is defective and can not calibrate lens in the right position.
  But this laptop is not very old, and I can't imagine that the drive is defective
  However, nothing is impossible.

  What you can do is to carefully clean the lens and see that it will help.

  Can we do with drag and drop in purchase of pc? Also plugged in external dvd who worked here and works in other computers and same problem! PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT!
  At least a clue?

  Hi Malva,

  Your DVD drive is visible in Device Manager? If so you can try to run the option "Troubleshooting" from there.

  It must also propose in your BIOS. Make sure to do.

  Finally, you can try to remove the device from your laptop and then restart. The system must detect the drive and reinstall it.

  Win XP drivers do not work with Win 7, but you should try some drivers for Vista.
  Try some drivers released for other series...

  Also try this:

  You can go to Device Manager-> properties-> Details tab SC card reader

  You can find something like that.

• Need info on max size of HARD drive available for Satellite Pro M30-813

  Hello

  The question is mainly to be sent to Toshiba authorized support personnel. The limitation of the maximum size of a HARD drive internal that I could use with my Satellite Pro M30 - 813, what exactly?

  Recently, I bought and installed seagate SATA drive of 160 GB, on which I installed WXP Pro and have been running for a while with no problems. Recently, I've been copying large amounts of data to an external hard drive to my new internal drive, and that the files have been copied, as I noticed have about 50 GB of free space left, I knew windows "delayed write failed" and a failure of massive wall without the possibility to recover the data. The system would no longer boot time and the entire MBR has been damaged. As a result, I lost all the data on my new drive.

  Well, I realize that Toshiba is not responsible for additional hardware that I use with my computer laptop and who is not officially supported by Toshiba, I am sure that as an end-user of a Toshiba product, that I have the right to know a lot information of limiting size of HDD for my model of laptop. So I ask, representing technical support Toshiba to give me an official reply directly to my question.

  Thank you in advance,

  Andrejs

  (You can also contact me private my e-mail address)

  Hi Andrew

  > The question should mainly be addressed to Toshiba authorized support staff
  I think that you are in the wrong place if you are looking for a response from an authorized Toshiba support.
  This is a user to user Toshiba forum! You will here meet passionate and Toshiba laptop owner who share knowledge and trying to solve the problems, but no one of Tosh :(

  I could give my experience with Satellite M30 and HDD upgrade possibilities.
  To my knowledge the M30 Sat supports a 40 GB, 60 and 80 GB HARD drive for sure.
  In my opinion, you can use the 100 GB HARD drive, but more large HARD s drive will not run and works correctly.
  So go to a smaller size of HARD drive and enjoy the laptop!

  I've goggled a bit and found compatible drive HARD and part numbers
  HITACHI GBC000Z810-> 80 GB
  HITACHI GBC00014810-> 80 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2188B-> 80 GB
  HITACHI G8C0000Z610-> 60 GB
  HITACHI G8BC00013610-> 60 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2183-> 60 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2184-> 60 GB

  I hope this might help you a little!

  Best regards

• Satellite Pro M30 - where to get the new motherboard

  I have a sat SPM30 Pro PSM35E-0023J-FR model with a video fault.
  Anyone know where I could get a new motherboard?

  If anyone has a similar model with other damage that they might want to sell on. All I really need is the motherboard.

  Hello

  New parts can be ordered from the local ASP.
  But be aware that a new motherboard is not good cheap. You will need for a replacement of the mobo 300Euros.
  I think that it s not worth buying a new motherboard because you could add a few Euros and might get a new laptop.

  However, you can view some websites like Ebay for example a satellite M30/Satellite Pro M30 of second hand. Perhaps you could get a second hand mobo

  Good luck
