SR1610NX: Question SR1610NX Sata

Hi, just recently inherited an old SR1610NX desktop mini tower PC. The hard drive was gone and my older relative just opted for a new PC instead of simply replacing the HARD drive. His tech guy took the old hard drive to get rid of him, and he left me the pc to do what I please. I want to just install XP and sell the thing for what I can get. However, I only have SATA hard drives and I'm trying to not put the money by buying an old IDE someone drive in this machine.

When I try to install Windows XP I can't find the disk to install on. I couldn't find the drivers on the HP support site that helped. The only determination number/point on the map is MS - 7184 Ver1.0

Any help would be most appreciated.

HPNewbie4891, welcome to the forum.

This is the page for Specifications of the motherboard of the computer.  See the section titled "Serial ATA".  He said there are 2 SATA connectors and each connector supports 1 serial-ATA-150 record.  It is perhaps that the hard drive is not compatible with the motherboard.

  • Question III SATA and SATA II

    So I know that on these machines (mine is E430), the main HARD disk is connected to a port SATA III as is the optical drive.  It appeals to two available SATA III ports, so when an mSATA SSD is installed on a SATA II port.

    So is it possible to change the optics and accessories SATA mSATA, or are they attached to the mobo?  I know that on a desktop computer, it would be as simple as changing the SATA connectors, but I'm not sure on the laptops.  My thoughts are that, for example, the optical connection is well welded/hung rather than fixed mobo and attached cable.

    Since an optical drive can not take full advantage of this bandwidth, it seems silly to have it this way.  In addition, my Momentus XT HDD is a SATA II, while the switch would also make sense in my case.

    Can someone enlighten me?

    "morning.

    It's all welded surface mount swap-a-cable-and-go solution, so not easy. I'm sorry.

    also, to clarify, the 2 port SATA3 serves the ultrabay generically, rather than explicitly optical drive. a lot of people get a disk adapter hard ultrabay and run a 2nd HDD or ssd even, where SATA3 would benefit the appropriate drive.

    Does that help?

    Thank you
    Paulo

    Hello

    SATA-III was introduced in Sandy Bridge chipset (Intel with the 2nd generation 6 series I have Core CPU).
    The laptop seems to be equipped with the Mobile Chipset Intel QM67.
    These chipset supports SATA 6 Gbit/s for 2 Ports and 3 Gbps to 4 Ports.

    But the SATA controller is also compatible to the bottom so that you could use disk SATA III SSD or HDD in SATA II controller too.

  • Question about the Installation of XP on Satellite A100-307

    I have a Satellite A100-307 with problems to install Windows XP. Model PSAA9E-11F03XFR

    The recovery CD is lost and I installed the laptop with a normal CD of Windows XP (sp2).

    During the Installation of the monitor is black.

    The Installation is without possible recovery CD?

    I created an Nlite CD with XP, but the SATA controller not found or the breaking of the Installation.

    Help me, please.

    Vtobi

    Hello

    essentially it s possible to install an of a real CD of XP/Vista OS, I think that this is the reason why Toshiba provides drivers on their driver download site.

    How do you mean that the screen remains black? More precisely, the description would be better...
    Another question: what SATA controller did you slipstreamed on the XP CD? I hope that you´re to the topic the A100 has an older controller (should be an ICH7M).

    Yes, this will improve the speed of normal applications on your mchine. Also, this speeds up things to the top processes ON and OFF. For the second question, yes SATA III is backward compatible so it will work, BUT you will not be able to get the SATA III speed. You can check yourself by using the following program:

    FTP://FTP.CPUID.com/PC-Wizard/PC-wizard_2012.2.11.zip

  • Replacing hard drive on Satellite M105-S1021

    Hello

    I'm looking to replace the hard drive of my laptop M105-S1021. Unfortunately, the disk hard original died on me packed and is about 6 months ago. I was quoted a couple grand to recover "perhaps" the content (no, I didn't have a backup and Yes, - lesson learned to always back up). I decided not to part with my money.

    This phone is a beast of a machine these days, relatively speaking (past 8 years). However, I don't want especially chuck and I really need for word processing and light Internet use. I do ' t present the boot floppies initial, but thought I would load Ubuntu or Mint as a BONE from a flashdrive (wahey for FREE software!).

    Been sniffing everything on eBay and discovered a true plethora of hard drives 2.5 "SATA. My question is this: do I need to stick with the original HD specifications? I post a picture of the HD but I do not see this feature available for this composer. It is a Hitachi 5v 1. 0a, 80 GB SATA, 5400 RPM HD.

    Of course, I can use another brand than Hitachi, but it needs to have the same input voltage (output? I don't know yet what this number means, but figure it has something to do with the power that there is a "DC" next to him)? Can I use a 7200 RPM to it rather than a 5400 disc? If I want to increase the capacity, can I use, say, a drive of 320 or 500 GB?

    And a question about SATA I vs II and III: I read that SATA II and III are retro-compatible and will slow down themselves if used in a SATA I machine. Is this true? In looking at all the different 2.5 "HDs on eBay and other sites, the connectors seem slightly different - the same, but some have little plastic shields and the extra bits coming out. Asked if SATA ALL connections will be adapted to all SATA computers or if they may have to be slightly modified (not the pins, but surrounding housings or housings).

    Anyway, thanks for any help and advice given.

    > My question is this: do I need to stick with the original HD specifications?
    Not really the important specification are: SATA and size 2.5
    The laptop supports a SATA controller and you use a SATA 2.5 HARD.
    GB size isn t really a key you could use a 100 GB, 250 GB and a 300 GB should not be a big problem.

    > And a question about SATA I vs II and III: I read that SATA II and III are retro-compatible and will slow down themselves if used in a SATA I machine. Is this true?

    Yes

  • Satellite M70-151 - not possible to install new HDD

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Satellite M70-151. bunch of old hard drive (100 GB Hitachi) reached the Windows XP screen then just ends with a blue screen a turn off laptop, immediately. I had to restore my data with an application file-rescue of another PC. It was not possible to start from old hard drive yet.

    Then I bought a Western Digital SATA II 250 GB hard drive that put my Windows XP CD in DVD player installed and tried to start. The laptop turns off as soon as the laptop computer tried to access the HARD disk.
    Thought, it was question of SATA II disk and tried a Samsung 160 GB Sata I - same result.

    BIOS recognizes the correct drives.

    If I try to boot from old hard drive, it shows the issue I mentioned first, but as before it reaches the Windows XP Boot screen before moving on to the blue screen before turning off the laptop. So start goes further than the boot with new hard drives

    The Windows XP CD I used is not the restore CD that came with the laptop, but a normal license.

    The heat is not a problem, I cleaned the CPU fan there is enough space to breathe the cold air mobile, the temperature is ok.

    * My questions are: *.

    Is there any special application running on laptops satellite, like special software of Toshiba, perhaps Backup, should I be aware of?
    What I need to preformat the hard drive, Toshiba-Hardware will recognize the hard drive?

    It would be great to get help on this issue, because I'm out of ideas. Thanks in advance!

    André

    Hello Andrew

    This behavior is very strange. I have some old Satellite M70-159 with 100 GB HARD drive. I also tested how it will work with a 250 GB HARD drive and all is well.
    On two drives, I have installed WXP using the Toshiba recovery image.

    I answer your two questions No. to install Windows XP Home edition on this model of laptop you don't need some special Toshiba application or a piece of software.
    HDD should be recognized correctly by the BIOS and the Windows XP Home edition installation procedure should work well.
    What you can try is to set the BIOS to the default settings and try again.

    The strange thing for me is that judgment. The blue screen tells me that there may be some serious hardware problem, the HARD drive controller might be. It's really not easy to say with certainty what can be the problem.

  • Satellite P770-109 not always start

    I got a P770-109 for a few months and it's a great laptop, but in recent weeks, there seems to be an intermittent problem with it starts not, almost as if the switch does not record the pressure of my finger.

    Has anyone encountered this?
    Is this a known issue on these machines?

    To be honest, I've ever read on this subject or a similar question on Sat P770 in this forum.
    Does this happen with adapter connected and disconnected?

    I think one big problem is that it of not possible to reproduce this question of law?
    Sometimes it happens and once the laptop can power up properly

    Well, maybe a technician may run diagnostic tests to get more info on the question

  • Upgrade SSD in Satellite L50 - has

    IM intend to put an SSD in my L50 - A - 1 7 but I don't know if my laptop supports SATAIII.

    IM also not to use my ODD will be a work of caddy hard drive to put my hard drive in there to store data?

    Unfortunately I can't offer you a precise answer to your question on SATA but any standard SATA laptop is such upgrade increase you mobile computer s performance quickly.

    Fact is that SSDS offer substantial benefits over traditional hard drives. It is interesting to note that SATA II SSD will still be faster than virtually any rotation HDD

    To find out what standard SATA laptop I recommend to install one of the two hardware diagnostic tools that are:
    -Everest Home Edition
    -Sisoft Sandra.

    Problem is that your laptop does not have coverage of HARD drive in the lower corner so these updates must be performed by the authorized service provider.

    As far as I know that Toshiba does not HDD caddy so you can try to use some third party caddy but if it will not work correctly is another issue.

  • How to get a manufactured HARD drive date?

    How to decode a serial number of the HARD drive to get the correct manufacturing date?

    I found some information, see the attachment below, but the HARD drive in question is SATA and serial number decodes to Feb 1997 which may not be correct.
    SN in question is 27MJFxxxx. Instructions below, 7 = 1997 - which would be 2007?

    Thanks for any help.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    How to encode a Toshiba hard drive serial number?

    Toshiba serial number (S/N) includes the date of manufacture. The first digit of the serial number indicates the month of manufacture and the 2nd digit is the year.

    Example:
    M Y x x x x x x x
    M = month
    Y = year

    Data for the month goes from 1, for January, by 9 in September, then X, Y and Z, for October, November and December.

    Examples:
    2 8 1 7 0 0 0 1
    2 = February
    8 = 1998

    3 0 5 4 4 3 0 6 T
    3 = March
    0 = 2000

    X 9 7 8 3 3 1 T
    X = October
    9 = 1999

    The remaining digits contain information about the plant and the production line, and some numbers are reserved for a continuously running serial number.

    Hello

    I googled a bit and there are a lot of people that suggests how to read a serial number, I have no idea if he of right, but for example if you have a serial number: X7TO234534, then the product data would be October 2007 (X 7)
    X = 10 = October, Y = November, Z = Dec
    The first number is the month and the second digit is one year.

    So in your case, the serial number 27MJFxxxx should mean Feb 2007

    However, these are only some gossip on the internet and who knows if it of good or bad

  • Inspiron 15 7559 - upgrade SSD

    Hello world

    I recently bought the 7559 Inspiron, 16 GB RAM, UHD/touch screen, 4 GB NVidia, 1 TB HDD and 128 GB of SSD. I already traded on the HARD drive for a 1 to Samsung 850 Pro SSD. I am now considering permutation of the SSD 128 GB for an equivalent of 512 GB. I am aware of which can cause me problems with cloning as the 128 GB is the C: drive, but my question is SATA and PCIe.

    The current SSD is a CM871 M.2 2280 128 GB Samsung. What I want to replace this with is a Samsung 950 PRO 512 GB SSD - 2280 m2 - MZ-V5P512BW - 3.0 PCIe x 4 (NVMe). However, I can't determine if it would work at the location of my Inspiron 7559 m2. The existing SSD seems to be SATA and the replacement of favorite a PCIe, but I do not know if the 7559 has a switchable M.2 port as some motherboards.

    So my questions are - can the Inspiron 7559 take the card PCIe Samsung 950 m2 Pro and if not can anyone recommend a good map of M.2 512 GB SSD to replace my existing 128 GB SSD card?

    Thank you

    The port of m2 on this model is SATA-only - it will not load a disc M.2 PCIe or M.2 NVME.

    The line of Samsung Evo m2 SATA drives will work fine.

  • Value created on the Presario SR1610NX recovery CD

    The value created on the Presario SR1610NX recovery CD will work on the Presario SR1620NX? Two computers running the same OS i.e. Windows XP Home Edition

    Hello

    It probably won't work as the recovery disks see one "tattoo" on the bios chip to validate installation - this information will be different for different models.

    You can view some of these information of "tattoo" as follows.  Shut down the PC.  Tap here to f10 as soon as you start to have access to the Bios Menu.  Details for model serial number NR. etc. can be read on the first tab.

  • T420 - Question of disk drive (wired Sata + SAS / Sata 2.5 / 3.5 is possible?)

    Hello

    I bought the T420 PowerEdge with a single SATA drive. I've added 3 more to max on internally wired to 4

    I wonder, do I ALSO have to add the hot swap 2.5 or 3.5 and all have work. I guess I have to buy a special raid card if it is at all possible.

    I want to be able to do is have the 4 cables + start adding the other 2.5 or 3.5 (based on price) and build slowly upward.

    If possible, could you please recommend this card, I have to use to get there?

    Thank you very much

    DellUserMichael,

    Unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to do, it is because the chassis are different depending on the storage option selected. T420 storage options are the
