• What capacity of the HARD drive in 1670CDS

  New, I HAV Satellite 1670CDS with Phoenix BIOS ver. A 1.07.
  My drive HARD broked down. I have to buy a new one. What capacity of the HARD drive will be detected BIOS corectly? How many GB of hard drive I can buy?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  This kind of information can give you just authorized partner. I found the info your device comes with 6 GB of HARD drive. Am I wrong?

  I'm sure you can use 10 or even 12 GB of HARD drive without any problem. If you want to use more than capacity, it is possible that it will not be recognized by the BIOS.

  I found an offereor which has guaranteed that even at 30 or 40 GB hard drives can be used on older models, but the BIOS should be handled with the special tool and is not for free.

  Good bye

• What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  No doubt a failure to the hibernation or a nasty system crash - not sure and not willing to risk a stable system there.  :-)

• After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive.

  * Original title: hard drive

  I have a lenovo laptop, processor Intel i3, 500 GB hard drive. After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive. I ran chkdsk looking for bad sector and its display 6000 KB in bad sectors. After completing the audit when it began to restart its stuck when the windows logo appears. What should I do? Reinstall the windows help?

  Run the hard drive HD diagnosis extended CD scan manufacturer to know with certainty the State of the reader.  If your brand has no bootable diagnostics in the link, use Seagate Seatools burned onto CD or SeaTools for a USB key .  Follow this with a full check disk command from the installation media kicked prompt know with absolute certainty the State of the reader.  If he repeated the errors after you run the two tests twice, I replace it or at least keep everything backed up in real time.

  If by chance the drive past diagnosis then compares the steps you've done with the best possible Clean install Windows 10 in the link, you can do more if it varied too - especially if the partitions were not deleted during install.  If you do then I additonally run own Diskpart command command line of the punt media accessible to the first screen after startup by pressing SHIFT + F10 keys, or through the repair your computer on the second screen.

• Failed hard drive on HP laptop. After replacement, can I put OS and memory?

  I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment Notebook PC, model dv9617nr (HP pn GS730UA).  An error message at startup says "Operating system not found" so my Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit (updated two years ago) does not load. I guess that means that my hard drive has failed. How can I test this hypothesis? Yet once, guess I am not mistaken, and I ordered the recommended replacement (pn 590736-001 HP) of spare parts warehouse ($142.50 plus port charges). Are there instructions on internet to make this replacement? After I do this replacement, I thought I could install Windows 7 I have and upgrade to 4 GB SODIMM the 1 GB SODIMM memory that originally served as. What problems I have with hardware compatibility with Windows 7? If the memory module that I use has the same features as the HP recommended replacement (pn 598861-001 HP), i.e. 800 MHz, 200 pins, PC2-6400, SDRAM, but greater capacity memory of 4 GB, I have compatibility problems to use it? Please advise me on these issues. Thanks, Jeff

  Hi, Jeff:

  Let me knock your question...

  First, to confirm that your HARD drive is dead, go into your BIOS menu. There should be a diagnostic utility hard disk and memory.  Run the HARD drive Diagnostics utility and see what it reports. More that likely that the disk HARD fell down, and is more usable.

  You can order a replacement disk or you can get just about any hard drive SATA II - 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM.

  You could go to 250 to 500 GB, if you choose. Unfortunately at the present time, HARD drive prices are unreasonably high due to the flooding in Thailand, where many HARD drive manufacturing plants. Some have been damaged heavily, causing HARD drive prices triple almost from one day to the next.

  This is a disc, you can get that I think is better than what you have now: this one is 7 200 RPM. Faster but uses more energy.

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822136279

  You can get the version of 5400 RPM... too similar. Not as good as the caviar black. It's more along the line of what you would get at HP.

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822136387

  Read the comments at the same time, or you are free to get HP.

  There are instructions for installing the hard drive and memory on your laptop support and driver page. Click on the manuals on the right side of the page.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01278446

  So, you want to watch the maintenance and care guide.

  You can upgrade the memory to a maximum of 4 GB by using 2 x 2 GB memory PC2-6400. You can get it at HP, or you can get it on the link below. It is the memory that I use. In fact I just ordered this same memory to install my sister-in-law in dv6700.

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820148159

  Now you can install W7 very well. I installed W7 Home Premium 64 bit on my dv6810us which has pretty much the same material as your and 4 GB of memory (the same that I posted above).

  However, here's the catch. It depends on what version of W7 you have. If you have a W7 upgrade version, you must install a qualifying operating system on the hard disk before you can improve.

  If you have a full version of Windows 7, then you can install it on a blank hard drive.

  If you have the version upgrade, contact the HP support and ordering a set of recovery disks Vista. Install Vista, then uprade to W7 if you have the updated release of W7.

  You can use the vista drivers support page of your laptop for all the drivers you need that W7 has no power.

  One thing... NOT (updated flash) BIOS while running Windows 7. You can Flash only using windows vista.

  I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please let us know.

• Change the HARD drive in the laptop Satellite P10-304

  I bought a new hard drive for my laptop toshiba satellite sp10, can someone tell me were the hard drive is in the laptop, so I can change it as it does not tell you in the instructions booklet
  Thank you
  jm75uk

  Hello

  For some portable models change HARD drive is very simple and not complicated. Change the HARD drive in your case will be not so easy, and in my opinion, you should contact the service partner. I don't know how old is your laptop, and if the warranty is still valid, but as Tobi said if you open the Briefcase with laptop computer on your own, you can lose the warranty.

  I don't know, but the HARD drive should be placed somewhere under keyboard because on this model there is no coverage of HARD drive in the lower corner.

  Good bye

• How to replace the hard drive in a laptop G500

  I tried to install openSUSE Linux on my new G500 12.3 and were unable to do so. I think there is a problem with the hard drive so I want to replace it. I worked on other phones and they all live on the base which allow you access to the memory and the hard drive. The G500 mouse does not work. How it is falling apart?

  Hi nlgootee,

  Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!

  You will need to remove the screws in the compartment

  

  After that you must slide the cover toward the front of the laptop.

  Note: Be careful on the removal and replacement of parts, any physical or cosmetic damage will not be covered.

  Best regards

• HP ENVY Pro 4-b000: what is the port of hard drive on my laptop?

  I was going to upgrade to an SSD, but I need to know what is the port for the hard drive?

  Hello;

  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

  Sorry but I don't understand your reference to a 'port' for the hard drive.  A 'port' is typically a connector on the case of a laptop when you plug a cable any in.  And, in this sense, there is no "port" for the hard drive.

  This link is to the Service and maintenance for your PC Guide: http://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.oid=5271152&docId=emr_na-c03404932&docLocale=en_US

  Information hard disk, as well as the replacement instructions, begin on page 37.  Understand, though, that this isn't a deletion-the-cover, ease of use; Instead, you must disassemble the laptop.  Unless you are experienced in doing that, my recommendation is to have the disk swap is completed in an HP Service Center.

  Here is information on Service Centers: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00372730?jumpid=reg_r1002_usen_c-001_title_r0004

  Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

• I want to recover the data on the hard drive using a laptop as a hard drive.

  Original title: Using a laptop as a hard drive...

  On a MAC, I can plug my laptop into my office with a firewire port to access the hard drive on the laptop without the OS being ran on the laptop.  Windows Vista has such a thing?  If so, how do you go?  The hard drive on my Windows laptop fails and we want to try and recover the data, by hooking it to a desktop as shown above with the MACs.

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  "There is no way to access the hard drive when there is no operating system and if the hard drive is connected terribly."

  However, you can remove the hard drive from the laptop and connect it to the office with a case of hard disk that comes with the USB cable.

  Hello

  strange that you can request that

  HP computers have been known to not let you install Vista on a non HP bought replacement hard drive

  There were a few posters with this problem here

  If the OEM disc for this particular laptop, you should be able to reinstall it as many times as you want as long as you have not changed the main material (the motherboard)

  You can change the hard drives, RAM, etc.

  I presume that you boot from the Vista DVD

• How can I wipe old hard drive from the laptop of computer death without jeopardizing the new laptop?

  I got a laptop HP who died - apparently the motherboard is bad.  I have to return the laptop to HP for replacement.  I bought equipment to connect the old hard drive to my new laptop via a USB cable and have recovered files that I need, but I want to erase the old drive hard until I got back.

  There seems to be a lot of variation in the hard drive, programs wiping, and I was wondering if someone could point me to one that could fit here.  I am concerned about the running software on my work to access the old hard drive and accidentally damage my portable hard drive to work laptop.  Who is?

  Thanks for the tips.
