T400s: can't erase the SSD (64GB, Toshiba)

I've upgraded to the latest version of the BIOS and I can't find that the secure erase so-called feature in there. There is a diagnosis of HARD drive, but that's not all. Research of googling and forum reveals only http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-76634

It's a hidden BIOS option that is not enabled by default.

To enable the option in the BIOS, please visit http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-68369.html

    Your profile indicates that you have an iPhone 4 running iOS 9.2.1.  It is not possible.

    The latest version of iOS for your iPhone 4 could run is iOS 7.1.2.

    So it is not at all clear if you talk about an iPhone 4 being run an older version of iOS, another iPhone running a newer version of iOS, or perhaps an iPad (as after all this is the area of the iPad from Apple Support communities).

    Thus, without knowing all of the above, try to reset your iPhone or iPad.  Press and hold the power and home together for 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.

    I myself PORTEGE R500 (PPR50U-02M01W version) with SAMSUNG_MCCOE64GQMPQ_SE805B0137. He has only 64 GB.

    If anyone can give me the link to SSD, who's going to fit 100% into my existing ssd will be very grateful!

    > I contacted Toshiba service asking to replace by something big, they said it's impossible! HOW DO I? It should be possible to replace the 64 GB SSD 256 GB SSD!

    And why wouldn't this possible? The technician said that?
    To my knowledge, it should be possible to use any disk SSD because SSD drives use the same interface as ordinary hard drives

    As far as I know there is a common controller SATA and SSD with SATA interface should work

    That s in my opinion

  • How can I erase the Awesome bar?

    I followed the instructions provided by Mozilla.
    IT DOES NOT WORK.
    No matter what I do, if I type in the bar location... also called the address bar... also called the Awesome bar... should have been called the useless bar... old sites Web will show that I have not visited in more than a year.
    Even if I clear my history every day.
    Yes, I select AS my calendar.
    Yes, I click AND DOWNLOAD the HISTORY of NAVIGATION.
    Still, whenever I type anything in the bar of Useless, old sites Web is suggested.
    How can I erase this and never make it do this again?
    How can I get the guy who designed the bar pulled Useless?

    (On another note... why I have to provide a password of eight letters at least 1 number? If I want a weak password, MY risk. What do you care? Also, if every Web site requests a password of eight letters at least 1 number you are actually makes it easier to hack because I am limited on coming up with new personal passwords for me since I have to remember and you make it so complicated.)

  • Can I put the SSD on my Z Satellite series?

    Can I put the original (128 GB) SSD 256 GB?
    I can screw the back cover?
    Who has experienced this?
    THX,
    Erik O.

    Since the SSD is not accessible to the user you can void the warranty if you open Notepad.

    The SSD can be improved, but you need an SSD 1.8 "mSATA. A standard 2.5 "SATA SSD does not.
