Satellite S50T-B - adding RAM and swapping HDD to SSD

Hello

I recently bought portable satellite S50t-B and have a few questions about the upgrade:

1. What is the recommended RAM to add (8 GB)

2. What is the DVAR to add?

3 are there instructions for adding more RAM and an SSD for my laptop?

4. I void my warranty by installing more RAM and exchanging the current hard drive for an SSD?

Thank you for your help

Can you please send name of full model of your laptop? (S50T-B-xxx)

  • XPS 8700 swapping HDD to SSD

    Just received new XPS 8700 and swap wanted immediately to the factory installed 1 TB of HDD to a new Samsung 256 GB SSD. Given that Dell did not provide a Windows backup a DVD, I removed the HARD drive and tried to clone for SSD by using another computer running Windows 8. However, neither software Samsung SSD or EASEUS Todo Backup Free would allow me to clone the whole HARD disk, the SSD is smaller.

    EASEUS has the possibility of reducing a selected partition so I could try to clone only the system partition main which is 940 GB but contains only 40 GB of data, mainly from windows and other software drivers, but I'm afraid that if I clone the other partitions, including the recovery of those, I will not be able to restore the system in the future.

    Technician Dell told me to use an OEM Windows 8 drive for a clean install on the SSD, but I did not and fear may lose everything that Dell has installed on the HARD drive.

    Should I continue the cloning attempts to use other software that allows to shrink the partitions if they contain no data - which one? Or XPS from the startup HARD drive as it is, make a record of system backup/image then, restore it to the SSD?

    Help will be very appreciated!

    The Dell recovery partition can be easily removed without rendering the system unbootable, so my suggestion would be to leave them alone.

  • Satellite A350 - Question about RAM and Vista 32 bit - 64 bit

    I bought a Satellite A350 Tiger Direct. He moved with Windows Vista 32 bit.
    It is capable in my view up to 8 GB of Ram. Vista 32 bit does support 3.

    All reviews on this laptop online say that it came with 64-bit and 400 GB of memory.
    Mine came with only 230 GB of memory and 32 bit vista. I ran Belarc advisor, and he tells me that my computer is 64-bit ready.

    Is this true? Why is - this me came not with Vista 64 bit?
    I want to upgrade my ram but with 32 bits, which is not possible and according to Microsoft you cannot update 32-bit to 64-bit.
    So should I buy Vista 64-bit upgrade? (for around 300 euros!). Is this in any way about this?

    What are my options? I want 4 GB of Ram or more really bad...

    What Satellite A350 do you have exactly?

    AFAIK the most recent series of Toshiba laptop pre-installed a dual operating system;
    In this case, you can choose between Vista 32-bit or 64-bit.

    To obtain the 64-bit, you will need to restart the laptop and have to press F8.
    Here you must choose the option to fix my computer. Then select Toshiba HDD recovery and finally, you should see the option which would be you can toggle between the 32 and 64 bit.

    Usually the Vista 32 bit supports 3.2 GB RAM.
    Only the 64-bit Vista will be able to recognize 4 GB and more.

  • Satellite Z930-12Z - add RAM and replace the SSD

    Hi all

    I'm new here and read some articles also on the Z930-12Z Satelite but I have two questions on the Satellite Z930-12Z:

    1. What is the maximum RAM for Satellite Z930-12Z? There are two locations inside or accommodation?
    I read this blog, but I don't understand if there are two slots or a slot...
    https://Forum.Toshiba.EU/showthread...Llite-Z930-12Z

    2. could I change the SSD? Is there a maximum GB for SSDS for my Ultrabook? No matter what SSD I install?

    I had these SSDS:
    2.1 Kingston SMS200S3 / 480 G SSD 480 GB (6.4 cm (2.5 '' mSATA)
    2.2 MZ-M5E500BW Samsung SSD 500 GB (mSATA)

    No matter what SSD I install?

    Thank you in advance!

    Two DIMM slots with 16 GB support apparently. You won't need 16 GB. Take a set of 2 x 4 GB RAM dual channel, I'll leave a link to a few good things that I use for my cell phone 16 GB

    http://www.ebuyer.com/646124-HyperX-...1779&PKW=&Pmt=

    Also, Yes, of course, you can change the SSD, you will need to get some kind of USB 3.0 in the first mSATA interface and clone the existing drive overall, because laptops do not want fresh windows install.

  • Satellite L850 - exchange of RAM and valid warranty

    As the title I want to know I will lose my warranty if I change ram by myself?

    I have Satellite L850-1V8 (I can't find it on the site official Toshiba but anyway no is PSKDNE) and if you can tell me who can RAM I put?

    Hello

    I found some info base for your laptop model. According to specification for laptop, that your machine can be upgraded up to 16 GB and you can use memory modules live 4 X 8 GB max.
    Rams compatible are:
    2 GB DDR3-1333-PA3918U-1M2G
    4 GB DDR3-1333-PA3918U-1M4G
    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find compatible 8 GB of RAM, even on the support page of Kingston. But I think that the info you can get from the Toshiba service provider in your country.

    Return to the upgrade of RAM. I guess that your laptop has 4 locations of memory. Two of them are placed at the bottom of your machine under guise of memory. You can upgrade memory on these two locations without losing the warranty. How this is also described in paper manuals s user on page 70.
    For example, you can put 4 GB modules there are two.

    Other two RAM slots are probably under the keyboard and RAM should be exchanged or maintained by authorized personnel only.

  • Satellite A200 - Question on RAM and HARD disk partitions

    Maybe it's in the wrong section... I do not know.

    I've never owned an OEM operating system and I do not understand why the HARD disk is partitioned, 90, 2, 90 (who thought of that?).

    The thing is that I have to format and partition differently (since I dual boot Linux) and need to create a structure more like 40,40,100 or such. (100 in fat32, so data is available for both)

    Now I wonder what data should I keep these readers. There is a folder called Toshiba on the C:\ drive that seems to have the drivers and such, some wallpapers and who knows what else. Then there's the WinRE called D: drive which has a kind of sdi and wim files.

    Another question, if I buy the 2 GB that is listed in the compatible options for my laptop (A200 - 28 p)
    Link: [http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/individualOptions.do?service=UK&OPTION_ID=138301&t oshibaShop = true & SelCategorie = 4700]
    It will match the 2 GB already in the laptop? It will void the warranty anyway?

    Hello

    > I've never owned an OEM operating system and I do not understand why the HARD disk is partitioned, 90, 2, 90 (who thought of that?).
    I assume you are using Vista.
    The 2 GB partition is a hidden partition which contains the data and the backup files in Vista. This partition will be automatically created during the installation of Vista.

    On the other partition 90GB.
    Well, this partition (partition of data) can be used to store files such as photos, movies, personal documents, etc. it s always recommended to partition a large HDD in more partition. This improves performance because the OS can access files much faster.

    Of course, you can change the size of the partitions. In Vista, you can change this in disk management.

    Regarding the upgrade of RAM;
    The laptop seems to supports the Intel® PM965 chipset and it manages 4 GB of RAM. It seems that you could use a 2 GB of RAM in one slot.

  • Satellite A30: Replacement of RAM and HARD disk

    I am about to replace the HARD drive in my Satellite A30 with a 100 GB one and update the RAM in both slots 1 & 2. Can someone give me a step by step guide to do this?
    Also to clean the mouse buttons leave because they no longer work correctly

    Thank you very much

    Hi Andy,.

    To replace the hard drive, you need to remove the F5 screw on the bottom of the laptop. This will allow the optical drive to slide toward the front of the laptop so that you can get on the hard drive.

    Remove the four screws (2 on each side) that hold the hard disk, and then gently slide forward to disconnect its multi connector.

    Remove the two metal (one on each side) of the old drive brackets and attach them to the new drive then carefully replace the new drive and drag it to the back of the laptop (be careful not to bend the pins).

    Finally replace the optical drive and fix it with the screw (F5).

    Remove the RAM modules is described in the manual of the A30 user but briefly it is to remove the screws holding the access plate on the bottom of the laptop, and then releasing the fasteners securing spring-loaded modules RAM, so that they can be angled to allow them to be removed from the location of connectors. The new modules can be inserted (they won't be back in a sense) and pushed into place until the fixing pins 'click '. It is very important that you take adequate and anti-static precautions before accessing RAM modules as they can easily be 'flashed' by a discharge of static electricity.

    Kind regards

  • What will happen with my agent and active Windows 8, I will have bought with the laptop after I swap HDD with SSD?

    Original title: replacement disk and windows.

    Hello guys.

    I am considering buying a new laptop. The model that I found and I like has a HARD drive if I want to replace it with the SSD to the format of my previous laptop. (Due to the low energy consumption, greater speed, etc.). So I have a 256 gb SSD in my previous loan of laptop replace new one HARD disk, yet what will happen with my agent and active Windows 8, I will have bought with the laptop?

    I can reinstall windows 8 on the SSD, but I don't have a key to activate their... How will I be able to get the key from previous series if the laptops will only work with a recovery partition these days here? I asked a guy in the store, I buy my laptop since and he told me that he does not know and I have to ask for help. However, to create a message of support I need a serial number of the model I did not because I have not yet bought a laptop, so I don't know what to do... I really don't want to stick with the HARD drive, but also I can't afford another model.

    Is it possible to do a recovery with my laptop disk when I get it, then replace the drive with my SSD and run the recovery disc I made?

    The laptop I want to buy is an Asus if that helps...

    Thanks in advance...

    The 'Raw' State is not necessary, it is the State of any drive (SSD drive or hard drive) would be in if you just remove a disk new in box and will need to be "initialized", since you have already used the player already initialized sound.

    Do not format the drive, rather than delete all existing partitions, (the SSD shows then as being "unallocated"). Now you are ready to restore the backup Image you created. During the restore process Acronis will recreate the partitions that were on the hard drive on your SSD.

  • swap HDD with ssd

    Many thanks in advance

    To upgrade your hard drive for an SSD, you must get an SSD that is the same format as the HARD drive.  Looking for a standard 2.5-inch SSD.  So that SSDS might work, however, you have read above, I would say something a little bigger.

    This SSD as it is a pretty good, and it is now on sale for $105: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-AM/dp/B00OAJ412U?tag=slicinc-20&ascsubtag...

  • Silence X 230: Swap HDD to SSD or install mSATA SSD HARD disk?

    Hello

    I have a x 230 with a 320 GB of HDD (7500 RPM) and want to replace it with an SSD for a fully automated machine.

    Right now, most of the time the only sound I hear the machine is the rotation of the disk HARD and TP Fancontrol watch that especially fans are not at all turns. I can afford a 128 GB SSD, but I am confused if I should replace the HDD with a SSD or complete with an mSATA SSD and install Windows, instead. The latter of course would give me 320 GB of HARD drive space, which would be nice, but my priority is the silence, so I need to know if the HARD drive can be powered completely except when I need files from it? If the HARD disk wakes up now and then because of some hidden Windows processes that I can't control, I'd rather than with an ordinary SSD instead of the mSATA SSD. I can live with less space.

    Does anyone have experience with this?

    Thank you

    If you install your operating system and applications on the mSATA ssd and just use the HARD drive for file storage then I think the HARD drive will only turn up when you access these specific files.

    Control Panel (Power Options) and Lenovo Power Manager settings for the hard disk turns off after a period of inactivity. However, the settings apply to all readers. Individual hard drives have no separate settings. I think that the system will not shut down the drive hard as long as there is activity going on in an mSATA SSD.

  • is it possble to upgrade of ram and storage for Aspire P3

    I have Aspire P3, I love him...

    Currently only is 2 GB of Ram and 60 GB of storage, possible to upgrade to 120 GB of storage? and 4 GB of ram?

    Thank you

    Aries is shipped, is not extensible.

    The SSD would require a complete disassembly of system upgrade and is not supported.

    We offer versions of the P3 Aspire with 4 GB of RAM and a 120 GB SSD.

  • swap HD with SSD

    I want to change my hard drive MacBook Pro with a Solid State Drive.Will it damage my motherboard? My connection speed is 6 gigabit and negotiated link speed is 3 gigabit. Pls advise.

    What year Macbook Pro that you have not included.

    The new Macs are not otherwise expandable. The batteries are soldered in RAM is soldered in, SSDS are difficult to find.

    If you use one of the templates earlier from 2009 to 2013, they are upgraded.

    Replacement of the HD with a SSD will not damage your motherboard.

    Here are some videos that you can check out OWC that show you how to upgrade your RAM and hard drive to SSD. http://eShop.MacSales.com/installvideos/

    Upgrading your hard drive for an SSD will make your computer run much faster. Also if you migrate to El Capitan, upgrading your RAM 8 GB is also a good idea.

    Good luck

  • Satellite L70-A-139 - guaranteed zero when removing the cover for the RAM and HARD drive

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite L70-A-139 youcef.
    And at the back of the laptop, there is a cover that is fixed with a screw.

    Wil I void the warranty when I unscrew and take a look?
    I want to upgrade my HDD to SSD.
    The motherboard supports Sata III: D.

    Thank you!

    No, the mandate must still be valid.
    There is a removable cover at the bottom of the unit as shown here:

  • Updated map of RAM and graphics on Satellite 2450

    I want to upgrade the RAM and graphics card on my Satellite 2450-101. I wondered if any body has tried to do and is it worth to do. I've been to the Brazil and anywhere with this computer and you want to buy a new one.
    I added a new drive hard 80 GB and an additional 30 GB and can do all the shooting, I want. I want to upgrade to the best graphic card for my model or if anyone knows anything which would be compatible.

    I have a nvidia 4 400 to go now with Pentium 4 processor, if anyone has any advice, it would be much appreciated.

    Hello James

    Unfortunately the graphic card cannot be updated. Buy more RAM is a good idea.
    The maximum memory that your device can handle with is 1024 MB. Compatible memory module are:
    PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51)
