Satellitre Pro 2100 hard drive upgrade

Hello

I bought a Satellite Pro 2100 2 years with an internal 30 GB hard drive.

I would like to replace the hard diskwith a 60 GB model.

Is this possible and if yes, what models can be used (can I do it myself)?

Stefan

Hi Stefan

In the lower corner of your laptop, there is the cover of the HARD drive and disc HARD exchange is not complicated. I'm sure that 60 GB HARD drive can be built in.

In my opinion you should take some information about it. You can contact the Service partner in your country or it is also possible to find a supplier of HARD drive on the net. They have information specific to which HARD drive fits a certain model of laptop.

  • Satellite Pro U200 - hard drive upgrade

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro U200-128 and you want to upgrade the hard drive. I can't find detailed specifications to show me the compatibility, drive type and therefore the size of a disc that I can buy.
    I think that its SATA, but there is a lot of info on SATAII, not sure if it will work in my model?

    Any help appreciated

    Hi ollieg72,

    You re right. Satellite Pro U200 already uses the HARD drive with SATA interface if you need a HARD SATA 2.5. In addition, it should be possible to use every ability because on SATA interface, there is no capacity limit.

    Anyway, SATAII HDD is also working because they are compatible to the old interface of SATA1 downgrade. So it makes no difference if the HDD is SATAII interface or not. ;)

  • Satellite Pro A100 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A100 with a FUJITSU MHV206OBH HD, he has been faithful and worked for at least three consecutive years, now my HD is filled with data from software etc. etc. I just changed the memory and upgraded to 2 Gygs and really the A100 is now as fast as my Dell XPS. I love my Satellite and want to install a new larger drive,
    Has anyone in the forum upgraded to a larger HD, advice, any recommendation of HD, where can I find the service manual for this.

    Best regards

    Hello

    In General, all satellites/Satellite Pro should have SATA hard drives and upgrade is not problematic. You can do this alone.
    If your laptop's 60 GB HARD drive only you can improve even with 120 GB or 160 GB.
    These hard drives are so cheap.

    Is that enough for you?
    Replacement is easy to do and you don't need manuals.

    The low side is set with a cover of HARD drive screw. On the disc lid HARD is placed also for computer laptop (one of the 4).
    -Remove the HARD drive cover
    -Remove the HARD drive pack by pulling on the cushion of the battery, following the direction of the arrows
    -Place the pack HARD drive on a flat surface (such as a desk) and remove the two cushions

    I guess you know now how to put a new.

  • Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello!

    I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
    I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
    Thank you very much for your help!

    These are the specs on the site
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

    Hey Buddy,

    In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

    Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
    Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
    I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

    are there restrictions on the type of hard drive that you can on this model?

    RPM

    I was watching a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST980815A, if this helps answer the question.

    Concerning

    Lee

    Hello

    I found the info your device comes with 40 GB IDE (ATA - 5) HARD drive. I think in your case, to capacity. High-capacity hard drives are not recognized properly, but I think that with 60 or 80 GB HDD should perhaps be recognized correctly.

    If anyone on this forum can give you accurate information, I recommend you contact your local dealer or service in your country. They are experts upgrade material and they have accurate info on HARD drive upgrade.

    Good luck!

  • HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

    HP 6470 b 2nd hard drive upgrade. How fast this port works on? SATA I, II or III

    I want to put in a 60 GB SSD into the CD slot and want to see how fast it will support as this will be used for the Cache

    Thank you

    The published information is not explicit; He says only: SATA for the expansion Bay while the main hard drive Bay expressly says SATA-III. However, given that this isn't just an optical drive Bay, but also a general 'Bay expansion', it is safe to assume it of on the same SATA bus as main drive and is a SATA III interface.

    Data sheet

    6470b is also supposed to have a slot for a WSSD mSATA, but he is not described in the Manual:

    Manual

    Obviously the WSSD would work better for cache but you can use a 60 gig SSD in an expansion bay for both cache adapter. Even if the connection is SATA-II, it will be much faster to work for a cache of acceleration.

  • Satellite Pro 2100: Question about upgrade HARD drive

    prior to thank you for your support

    Hello

    It is very unlikely that the 100 or 120 GB HARD drive works.
    I guess that the BIOS will not recognize these hard disks.
    I don't officials documents found on the hard drives supported, but I think that the 60 GB HARD drive is the biggest HARD drive that works on the Satellite Pro 2100.

  • Computer HP laptop slim 500 GB HARD drive: used for HP laptop HARD drive upgraded to Win 10 Pro with key now stuck after HP Drive Encryption Login

    I bought a portable hard drive used HP for the upgrade of my Lenovo G550 with ugraded CPU with Intel's CORE DUO T9300 2.50 ghz

    (HP hard drive: computer laptop slim drive HARD 500 GB SERIAL ATA DISK DRIVE S/N W627S9NL P/N 756731-001 MFG Seagate Technologies DOM 8 / 2015)

    I was happy to see that the hatd drive had already installed because Windows 7 I had bought already separate legitimate Windows 10 Pro license key for the upgrade. I was able to go online and download the upgrade of Windows 10 and used my purchased license key to activate my updated.

    While doing the installation, there are some HP software that was still on the hard drive. I thought it would be good to have some additional security protocols, so I also installed the WinMagic Securedoc Bootloader v1.2.12 and saved the drive encryption HP with the security issues and password for secondary access.

    10 Windows has been activated and everything was beautiful. But when I restarted the laptop, I put my password for windows and then it goes to this screen of disc HP encryption rises. I put the password and it is accepted - and then the screen turns white... not offshore... jblank TEU with a cursor flashing that doesbn can't react to inputs.

    I tried leaving it for a day or so and still nothing.  There is nothing I can change in the configuration of the BIOS that works so far.

    I also tried Reimage download on USB and re-creation of the sequence of boot, but not good. Even tried a boot drive, but nothing there either. I'll try again.

    I don't know where to go or how to get beyond the screen of HP encryption.  I am pretty good at following directions, I don't know coding, but may do what you suggest to help me fix this problem.

    Can you help me?

    Sorry... I missed the part that you have a license Win10.  I thought you were trying to activate 10 using the OEM HP license and causing problems.

    I do not use HP encryption applications - as having recently completed a career in the InfoSec, I personally focus together on the encryption of the PC to be laughable-, but my guess is that you are basically out of luck.

    If it was my drive, I WIPE the drive of all its content and then again install Win10.  A good product to do i.e. DBan: http://tiptopsecurity.com/how-to-securely-wipe-your-hard-drive-with-dban-erase-your-data-for-good/

    Once your disc is clean, then simply install Win10 on it.

    That said, with a bit of luck, one of the HP EXPERTS will probably come along and tell you how to get around their encryption.

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro A120-128 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello

    I'm seriously exhausted on HARD disk space and want to upgrade my HARD drive in my Satellite Pro A120 128. Is there a maximum size that I can update? This model takes SATA or IDE?
    Any suggestions on make & model disk HARD upgrade to?

    THX!

    Normally it should not be a problem to use a HARD drive this lager s like 137 GB because as much as I know there is no limit of capacity on SATA interface.
    But as said Akuma, test it before buying this drive.

    However, an IDE HDD does not fit in this notebook

  • HARD drive upgrade to 320 on Satellite Pro A200SE - 1 X 6

    Hello

    I recently bought a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro A200SE - 1 X 6, that it came with 80 GB hard drive and I want to upgrade to 320 GB HARD disk, is it possible?

    At the back of the laptop, I found a compartment for a second HDD to HDD2.
    I tried to open it by unscrewing the screws but I couldn't take off the cover even after I removed the two screws, could someone help me on how to remove the cover HDD2? *

    Last question, what type of HARD drive I need to purchase?
    I thought it might be SATA!

    Thank you very much
    Taha

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure if a HDD 320 would go well on your Satellite A200 and BIOS recognize it without big problems.
    First of all try to test it somehow

    With regard to the second disc cover HARD;
    I have an A200 Equium and same second HARD drive Bay is available on my laptop.
    The plastic cover is fixed ONLY with these two screws and after the withdrawal of these two screws, you should be able to remove the HARD drive Bay cover too.
    I know a little bit more difficult but try to use a thin object and try to leverage.
    But be careful!

    Just a note;
    Not all A200 supports the second HDD! But the second span is always available.
    Yes, it's a bit confusing (I was too confused), but it seems that there are different models with different motherboards and that's why the second HARD disk controller is not always there.

  • Satellite Pro PSAI5E A1 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro model A1 - PSAI5E and I need to upgrade the hard drive.
    Does anyone know if it is easy to do with this model because it is old enough?

    More, I have to get a 2.5 IDE hard drive?

    Thank you very much
    Tom

    Hello

    The model A1 of Satellite Pro - PSAI5E is not known to me...
    Are you sure it s the right model number?

    In any case, you could install a hardware configuration such as Everest Home which would be to scan your HARD disk controller.
    Then you might get details on the interface
    Either it's SATA or IDE interface.

    Is based on the interface, you need an IDE or SATA HDD...

  • Hard Drive upgrade - what is the best software to transfer information

    I don't know how to transfer files and folders, no problem, but I want to upgrade my hard drive but don't want to lose my settings or programs.  I don't want to start over.  I had success in the past with some programs when switching from an old computer to a new, but it will not work on the upgrade.  Anyone know of a program that will allow me to put an external information, install the new hard drive and install XP, then copy the original information and programs.  The challenge for programs to work properly.

    It's on an Inspiron 8600 running XP Pro.
