Tecra R950-104 - can I replace ODD with SSD?

Hello

Is it possible to replace my DVD drive with an SSD with a HARD Drive Caddy?

My laptop is a Toshiba Tecra R950-104.

Kind regards

Luis

Hello

I found on the internet some UltraSlim SATA HDD/SSD mounting frame that allow the use of 2nd 2.5 HDD/SSD drive instead of ODD in Notepad Tecra R950 but to be honest I m not 100% sure if the BIOS recognize such additional device.

I know that computers Toshiba laptop (Portege and Tecra) series different takes in charge these updates in the past but this replacement was not supported by each laptop model.

It depends on the BIOS and in the event that the BIOS recognize the 2nd HDD/SSD drive, the system should be able to recognize 2nd HARD drive

  • Can I replace HHD with SSD in G570 4334 laptop computer 43344JU

    I have a laptop of Lenovo G570 4334 43344JU. It has a Pentium Intel B940 2.0 GHz processor,

    Conditioning LGA1155, Chipset ID 1 49. And the HARD drive is a HITACHI 320 GB SATA II 2.5 INCH HTS543232A7A384.

    Windows 7 Ultimate is installed on this computer.

    I want to replace the HARD drive by an Intel SSD 240 GB. Is it possible to replace only the current with HARD drive

    for example, an Intel 530 240 GB internal 2.5 inch Solid State Drive without changing the other hardware components such as the drive controller?

    Hi lor1cal,

    Welcome to the Forums.

    Yes, it is possible to replace the stock 2.5 "SATA HDD to a 2.5" SATA SSD.

    To put you on the SSD, you can:

    1 clone stock HDD to the SSD with Paragon Backup & Recovery Home 12 (free trial) or:

    2. perform a clean installation on the SSD using a Windows 7 bootable disc. If you do not have a bootable media and you only have a license key, you can get a Windows 7 ISO on this Web site. To create a bootable USB key, see this guide.

    Hope this helps

  • Can I use the Modem 3 G on my Tecra R950-104?

    I have a Tecra R950-104, and when I remove the battery, there is a 3 G Sim Card slot, just like it says in the manual.

    The problem is that Windows (Win 7 64 bit) does not recognize any 3G modem in the computer.

    So, this means that only some models have the modem, but all have the slot for the sim card?

    I have already installed the 3 G Modem driver, downloaded from the Toshiba site, the driver has been installed without any problem, I have a Sim card that works - tested in a 3 G USB Modem - but still I can't do any connection because Windows does not even a modem.

    You are right, some models have the 3G module inside and, unfortunately your model does not have it.

  • Disk failure HARD Tecra R950-104

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Tecra R950-104 with almost a year.
    Everything works fine except the HARD drive.

    In this period (almost on the year), I got 2 hard drive failure (hdd 2 had to be replaced!).
    Fortunately the issues occurs within the warranty period.

    Y at - it problems with this machine, about the drive HARD (it's a 500 GB, 7200 RPM Toshiba HDD).

    Thank you

    Hello

    HARD drive problems do not portable but depend on the use of HARD drive and use of portable.
    The HARD drive is a wearing part. Sooner or later every HARD drive was going to die.

    This problem can occur because the HARD drive is affected by shocks while moving the laptop. In addition, there a lot of different hard drives on the market. Some are less expensive because of the low quality and some HDD cost more because of good quality.

    If you keep the eyes on the quality of the HARD drive.
    But to be honest, I would never buy a laptop HARD drive. I replaced my HARD drive with an SSD. Its much faster and more sustainable as a HARD drive

    can I replace nvidia graphics card quadro4000m with nvidia gtx hp 690 z1 all-in-one for better graphics performance?

    Hello

    The 690 NVIDIA is only a 'chimera' at the moment.  We'll see what happens after the rumor launched as of April 28.

    Open the Z1 HP if you have a look at available power connectors and also note the size of the power supply.  The Z800 with 875 watt POWER supply can operate according to the available power connectors.

  • I would replace ODD with Blu - ray on satellite C50 player

    Hello

    I would like to replace my dvd player with a bluray player. What should I do, there are several but most of them is 12.7 mm deep, that fit the slot or do I need a model more thin?

    Are there settings that I need to do to make sure it's working properly which is the master/slave settings

    Thanks in advance.

    > Are there adjustments I would need to do to make sure it's working properly which is the master/slave settings

    It is not possible on optical disc drives that are released for laptops. For most parameters are set to C - SALT (cable select) and this means that the BIOS would pick-up the slave automatically option.
    Of course, his question to the reader. You should use the one compatible.

    As far as I know, the user manual contains information about the compatible optical discs and I recommend you to check this user's manual. Information must be mentioned on it somewhere in the first pages.

    Thank you

    Each laptop manufacturer offers generally the list of compatible and parts accessories that can be used on some model laptop. As much I know this parts Toshiba doesn't offer to upgrade if with this you are on your own.
    With other words, you'll be very happy if someone on this forum has the same laptop model, use the same room and I can confirm that it works perfectly.

    In General, it is not expensive and I think that you can buy and test it.
    Do you know how to remove the optical disk drive?

    Anyway, if you need help, you are welcome.

    One last thing: has your valid warranty for laptop?
