Second hard drive on Satellite P200

I have a Satellite P200-1IE with a 200 GB hard drive. And the case has "Colocation", another hard drive, but SATA connectors are not here :(
I wonder if it is possible to insert the connector to attach the second HD.

Thanks in advance for the help

I agree with Joey.
Toshiba designs and provides models of different laptops with different material specifications.
All Satellite P200 mobile phones are equipped with a second HARD-drive Bay, but not all supports the interface and the second HARD disk controller.

It of a bit confusing, but despite a second Bay HARD drive you will not be able to use a second HDD due to a missing on the motherboard disk controller.

  • How to use the second HARD drive of Satellite A210 - BP1 for mirroring

    Satellite A210-BP1 came with 2 HDD (160 GB).
    Now, I want to use the second hard drive mirrored the first, one that has Vista installed.
    This should be done without supervision and in real time - as a RAID 1.

    How can I do this?
    I also have Vista professional available and I would be willing to use 3rd party software as well.

    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    Hi Jan

    I doubt that this is possible
    Why? The point is that you need to use two hard drives in mirroring, RAID striping, mode etc technology
    Satellite A210 can't RAID. It s only a SATA controller without RAID capacity!

    Therefore, the final answer is; NO, it is not possible to use mirroring

  • Cannot format second HARD on a Satellite P200-13 s PSPBGE drive

    Nice day

    I have a s system of Satellite P200-13 friends in front of me who was reinstalled using the recovery CD.
    It took me some time to update the operating system (Vista Home Premium SP1) after that and so on.
    I've also renewed the BIOS. The system seems stable, everything is on a green status but I have a problem.

    This system has got 2 hard drives, C:\ on which runs the operating system and programs are installed and there is therefore a 2nd HARD drive D:\.
    Now, if I look in the hardware Manager or disk management tool, I can see this disc and it says that it is functional and ready but the disc needs to be formatted before using it, which seems logical, of course.

    When I try to format the formatting begins, but after a few seconds, I get a message that there have been a failure and it cannot be formatted. The State of the disk is still no failures.

    What is a defect in the disc itself? He was untouched and has worked before.
    Thanks for any help or idea.

    Hello

    How have you tried to format this HARD drive?
    You can describe it in the steps of the view?

    The HARD drives are usually already formatted and you don't need to format it again...
    Check if you can access the second HDD and save files on it!

  • Re: How to use the second hard drive in Satellite A300?

    I got a second hand Satellite A300 which was to be thrown out due to a defective DVD.
    I fixed the DVD and have a perfect system.

    On opening the box, I discovered that there 2 x 250 GB hard drives. I checked CMOS and show the 2 drives. However, Vista displays only the a drive.

    Excuse my ignorance, but how do I access to the second drive?

    I have Satellite A300 with two hard drives and each HARD drive has another operating system. Both hard drives are recognized correctly.
    I put t know what the problem is here, but the two hard disks should be recognized automatically.
    Try to set the BIOS to default settings and check again.
    Try to start the check and install Microsoft bootable disk if the two hard disks are displayed in Setup.

    I just hope that there is not a hardware problem.

  • Secondary hard drive for Satellite Pro P200-1DV

    Anyone know if it is possible to add a second hard drive for the P200-1DV?

    There is room inside the machine, but there is no connector?

    As I know the second HARD drive update is not possible because there is no available connectors. The universal laptop Briefcase belongs and it will be used for all models of laptops P200 and some of them come with 2 hard drives.

  • 2nd hard drive in Satellite Pro P200

    Hello world

    I have a Satellite Pro P200.
    Anyone know where I can get an advance and a shopping cart to install a 2nd hard drive?

    As far as I know your laptop can be improved with the second HARD disk if the SATA connector is available.
    When you remove the HARD drive to the second HDD can you see it or not?

    I have the Satellite P200D with place for second HARD drive, but there is no connector HDD SATA upgrade is not possible.

  • Satellite P200D - second hard drive

    I want to install the second hard drive on my P200D - 11L.
    But I do not have the connector for the HARD drive in the second drive Bay.
    Is it possible to add the second drive?

    If there is no connector HARD drive that you can not use second HARD drive. I have Satellite P200D-111 and there is also no connector to the second HARD drive.

    Laptop Briefcase is the same for all models of laptops P200 and some of them come with hard drives 2. because of this, there are empty.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - second hard drive

    Hello

    Perhaps some may say where I can buy hard disk for the motherboard conector?
    I have place for HDD and connections on the motherboard, but don't not have hard drive connector.
    Camputer are 1gn A300.

    Help, please!

    Hi Lotus

    Toshiba offers Satellite A300 with one or two hard drives with two different mothers. Plastic cover is the same for both models of laptops and that's why there are two disk HARD covered and placed two HARD drive. Laptops without SATA connectors are not ready for the upgrade.

    No one here in this forum has reported that these updates possible if laptop doesn t have original SATA connector to the second HARD drive, so I think that you cannot upgrade your laptop with the second HARD drive.

    By the way: it's not easy to find these parts.

  • Satellite P70 - how to use the second HARD drive?

    I have recently bought a satellite P70 - A - 10 d.

    Do I need additional items for it or he'll be safe just plug the drive and leave it without screws?

  • Satellite Pro A120 - Second hard drive on secondary IDE channel

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A120 xp sp3.
    I tried so it can recognize a 2nd hard drive on the secondary ide channel, but it will not. CD player has been removed and replaced by one of them, the with the pata to sata interface.

    [http://newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_27&produc ts_id = 245]

    The second hard drive is a 500 GB seagate sata drive. Drive is spinning and powered but not appearing is not in the Manager of management or storage device.

    In the Bio (uptodate), it shows me it but won't let me change it.

    The readers of e/s
    Built on the disk HARD = serial ATA port 0
    CD rom = secondary ide (170H - IRQ 15)

    For me, the material is able to support two HARD drives that you remove the cd player, but it seems that the bio is me locking out the deselection of CD-ROM on the second IDE channel.
    Please could someone point me in the right direction to solve this problem.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I read this story carefully and to be honest I m not sure if a second HDD (instead of the STRANGE) can be used

    My knowledge the IDE second controller does support all the ODD (CD/dvd drive) due to different master/slave/c-salt settings.
    I think it's the same case, why the second HDD is not recognized correctly

  • Satellite A200-1 s 5 - can I use a second HARD drive and RAID?

    Hi all

    Toshiba Satellite A200-1 s 5 is eligible to add a second hard drive? It has RAID controller as much I know - it might help?

    Thank you
    Denis

    If you have a SATA connector in the second HARD drive Bay, you can use a second HDD. Check it!
    Then you can buy each disc HARD what you want with SATA port.

    The Satellite A200 doesn't have a RAID controller.

  • Satellite A350-122 - how to install the second HARD drive?

    Hello

    I'm a french owner of an A350-122 (serial no: 39169719K)

    In the french of the manual user, page 1-5, it is written that it is possible to insert another disc hard, and on page 2-6, the rear of the A350-122 view shows a second branch on the left for a second hard drive.

    So, I bought an SSD Intel X 25-M to put in the second location. I opened the second location and there is nothing: no sata, no power connector connector, only a location empty.

    So, what's the problem with this Satellite A350-122?

    Thank you for your response.

    Hey Buddy,

    I agree with the user above. Not all Satellite A350 models support a second HDD. The point is that laptops are country specific products and this feature is not available everywhere. In addition, all models A350 by using the same notebook case in order to have a crack but no connector.

    In any case, you can use t a second HDD. :(

  • Can a second hard drive be added to a Satellite A200-298

    Hello
    I have a Satellite A200-298 which came with a hard drive of 200 GB, I wondered if it was possible for a second hard drive more to be added to help with Itunes that is storage of files and movies.

    Post edited by: Irishdiver

    Hi mate,

    Unfortunately, there may be a second HDD to be added because if your machine has only one disc and then the other drive hard bay would not have an installed hard drive connector.

    I would buy an external hard drive and store my stuff there I was you...

  • Second HARD drive is possible on the Satellite A200-1iW?

    possible second hard drive on the Satellite A200 1iW?

    Hello

    Not all models of laptops A200 supports the second HDD.
    If you want you can find very easily if your laptop supports this second HDD.

    At the bottom of the device, you can find the second HARD drive Bay. Remove the cover that protects the Bay and check if there is some HARD drive connectors.

    If not, then the second HDD is not possible
