SSD or HARD disk replacement DVD - Satellite A200-13R

Hello

I wonder if there is someone who has already tried to remove his portable DVD Player Series Satellite A200 and put a 2nd HDD or SSD drive in there? I'm about to get rid of Vista OEM and install W7 I wanted first of all to backup all important data. But reader isnot DVD from Toshiba to work at all (it was never work in my laptop) so I'll have to boot and install the new system of USB.

So, do you think you could remove the guts of DVD drive metal case and 2nd disc HDD or SSD in there?
Thanks for any advice.

As far as I know that something like this is not possible. In the latest Toshiba offered that option for several models of business only. With special HARD drive adapter, it was possible to do.

On your Satellite A200, something like this is not an option.

    You have disconnected the display while you cleaned up the laptop?
    Are you sure that the display is connected correctly?
    Check the cable?

    You know, it's not easy to say what may be the problem.

  • How to change LCD on my Satellite A200-13R screen refresh rate?

    I really need your help guys, I bought the Satellite A200-13R, it has only 60 Hz refresh rate option, refresh rate of 60 Hz hurt my eyes and make me feel their combustion, 85 hz frequency never make me feel like, it's more comfortable for my eyes, but 85 Hz is not available in this satellite A200-13R is the graphics card Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset

    I installed the latest drivers 4 this graphics... but still only 60 Hz option refresh rates available

    each of you know how 2 have 85 Hz refresh rate 2 use in this model

    I would be gratfull to have your help and I am glad 2 hove, some of you as a friend.

    Hello, my friend

    At first I try to understand your nickname, but unfortunately without success. Is there maybe a hidden message? ;)

    In any case, your ad is really amazing. LCD technology is truly the best for the eyes and the content is illustrated flicker. The old monitors refresh rate of 60 Hz was quite low and result flickered photo. Higher discount rates using the image was stilly and flicker.

    LCD technology is different and standard setting is 60 Hz. In my opinion you should speak with your family doctor. Maybe you need glasses when working on PC. I have some colleagues in my office who use glasses when working on PC.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Re: Problems with the hard drive on a Satellite A200

    Hello

    I got my Satellite A200 (PSAE6E) for many years, and although I was interested for her order to to finally make the hard drive gives its first signs of failure. The symptoms started coming a few months ago. The disc will stop working, the system hangs, and I begin to hear a clicking sound from the disc. I'm afraid that one day it will stop working completely, and I can't afford without a laptop.

    I would replace it for a new hard drive, or one that is in good condition, but I'm having a hard time finding information on hard drives compatible with this model. Could someone help me with this?

    Thank you
    Gloom

    What you can do is to remove the original HARD drive and order the same.
    What you really need, it's SATA HDD and you can get it in every electronic or PC Magazine. I assume the original HARD drive was about 200 GB. What you can do now is to buy a new one with more capacity.

    Either way, what operating system are you using? I mean Win7 works perfectly on this old piece of hardware.

  • Merging 2 partitions on a hard disk again on Satellite X 200-21 L

    Ok
    my situation: I bought the Satellite X 200-21 L (European version of the X 205-SLi3) on this point, I have two hard drives with a capacity of 160 GB per disk.
    But among the hard disks is divided into two partitions, the partition "C:" for progra0ms and vista and partition "F:" for what you want.
    The second hard drive D: is normal without a split (160GB).
    But now, my score of the first hardrive (where is saved the programms and viste) is full. Therefore, I want to know, if possible, to unite the two bulkheads again!

    -is it possible?
    -can which program I use? Vista its own program to do this?
    -I only have a recovery CD... so I don't want to lose my data! the hidden for the automatic system recovery partition could be damaged?
    -is only possible to run such a program, which protect my data and unite those partitions without losing something?

    My hard drives:

    File data-system: NTFS
    Hardrive-Capacity: 160 GB (two of them, one is divided into two partitions))
    size: 2.5 Zoll
    Rotation speed: 5400U/min
    Cache memory: 8 MB
    average access time: 11 ms
    port (internal): IDE 40Pin (Ultra DMA/ATA-66)
    MTBF: 600000 hours
    Engine technology: dynamic fluid bearing / RoHS compliant

    THX!

    As far as I know that something like this is possible. You can do the following:

    1. remove all data of D on the second HARD drive
    2. open Computer Management > disk management
    3. click with the right button of the mouse on the D partition, and then choose the option Remove Volume
    4. click with the right button of the mouse on the C partition and select Extend Volume option
    5. simply follow the menu on the screen

    All that s!

  • Qosmio X 70-B-10 t does support SSD or HARD disk?

    Hello

    my name is Christian.
    I'm going to buy a new laptop and I decide for the new Qosmio X 70-B-10 t (game).

    I have a question: I don't understand if the laptop is equipped with a single HARD disk or an SSD.
    Then, I would like to know if there is a single hard drive (HHD or SSD) or two (for example a HARD disk and a SSD).

    Thanks for the answers and sorry for my English!

    See you soon
    Christian

    Hello

    The Qosmio X 70-B-10 t was equipped with a 2.5 SATA 1 TB drive HYBRID SSHD (8 GB SSD flash memory).

    Hybrid disk HARD is a mixture of HDD and SSD drive part is the hard drive and another part (in this case 8 GB) is a flash memory.

  • I want to make three partitions of disk on the Satellite A200 - 1 GB

    Hi all

    Last night I noticed that there is a small sound comes out when the hard drive is being read. The its same as the desktop sound disk hard drive. In desktop HARD drive is normal.

    I thought that laptop HDD looks not that she even has the same hard disks of office technology.

    Is this also normal thing?

    The other thing is I thought to divide my second partition (drive D) into two partitions, because I can then have three separate partitions.
    If I using disk management it will give any question?

    In the desktop, I did a lot of operations on disk with Win XP, but I have no experience on mobile phones. is there a difference between desktops and laptops running Windows XP Home edition?

    I hope I can divide my second (93 GB) partition in two 45-GB & 45 GB.
    Someone can give some idea about it and is any body have done this surgery?

    S of my laptop HARD drive makes a sound strong and 2 years it worked ok.
    I presume that it s no big deal due to the fact that the A200 is not an old series and the HARD drive is new.

    > The other thing is I thought to divide my second partition (drive D) into two partitions, because I can then have three separate partitions. If I using disk management it will give any question?

    No everything should work. But I think that XP OS is not able to create a HARD disk partition. You will need to use a 3rd party as if by magic the 8 Partitions for example program.

    > Desktop computer, I did a lot of operations on disk with Win XP, but I have no experience on mobile phones. Is there a difference between desktops and laptops running Windows XP Home edition?
    Feel free to create a partition.

    > I hope to divide my second (93 GB) partition in two 45-GB & 45 GB.
    > Can anyone give some idea about this and any body have doing this operation?
    Use the magic of Partitions 8

  • I can add a hard disk in-house Satellite A300 - 20 p

    Satellite a300 20 p has 2 slots for HDD
    Can I add another next to the existing one?

    Hello

    You can check it out yourself.
    There should be a second HARD drive Bay.
    Remove the second HDD Bay cover and check if there is a disk (PIN) connector.
    If you find not all connectors so that would mean that a second HARD disk controller is not available and the 2nd HARD drive usage is not possible.

  • Can I use 2 hard drives on the Satellite A200-1YX

    Hello, who knows if it can work 2 hard drives on the A200 1YX.
    In the manual is written there are 2 locations for hard drives, but it says that for some models of Satellite A200.

    Can I use 2 HDD on Satellite A200-1YX?

    As mentioned by user above, different Satellite A200 series are present on the market.
    Some supports 2 hard drives and some as a single HARD drive.

    But both series are equipped with a second Bay I recommend you simply remove the cover plastic that holds the second HARD drive Bay and check if the HARD drive connectors are available.

    Good bye
