    Hello

    Unfortunately, there is no other software by download.
    I checked the driver page Toshiba in the Options area but didn't find anything

    AFAIK it of a plug & play HARD drive if you n t need any software to recognize the HARD drive

    There may be a password.
    Try this:
    Connect your HARD drive to the computer when the HARD drive is working
    Select the CD drive with your browser (password)
    Run the ONSPCLCK.exe
    Select 'Options '.
    Select "Disable security password"
    Enter your current password
    Unplug the HARD drive
    connect the HARD drive

    Now, it will work, but with no password protection. Perhaps it would work

  • It is not detected on the Toshiba Satellite A300 - 1 5 support page

    Hi guys,.

    Please do me a favor. I'm in Dubai, I bought my Toshiba laptop in Dubai. This is the Satellite A300 - 1 5, Sr.No. 98487056Q.
    The problem is: whenever I try to find my laptop using Toshiba and the technical support web site, it does not detect my machine.

    I tried Auto detect, put serial no in the box, the two option, but all returns with the same result - not available in the region.

    Until what I detect my machine, I am unable to identify the driver and therefore impossible to check the updates.
    It is strange that Toshiba is not by site Web from Toshiba.

    Can someone help me?

    It may happen that the system somehow cannot identify the model of laptop, but to download drivers, it is only important to know the first part of the reference.
    If your laptop belongs to the series of PSAG4E and on the Toshiba download page, you can set exact notebook model and see what drivers are available.

    Have you tried choose your product manually?

  • Toshiba Canvio Stor.E 1 TB 2.5 "great copy hangin out after a few minutes

    Hello

    I just bought the Toshiba 2.5 "Stor.E Canvio 1 TB on a Windows 7 Thoshiba laptop.
    Whenever I do a great copy, after a few minutes, the copy blocks.

    The process explore hangs, it cannot be killed and the only solution is to disconnect the usb port and plug it back.

    How would I fix this?

    Thank you
    Alex

    Hello

    Theoretically, it could be a HARD drive problem.
    Would be interesting to know if the other HARD drive does the same thing

    However Stor.E Canvio is a HARD USB 3.0 drive and it takes min 900mA to operate correctly.
    It might be possible that not enough power provided by the USB port.
    You can try to plug an external USB hub between the laptop and the HARD drive to verify functionality.

    I hope this is the right forum for this question
    Please help me with my external hard drive, Toshiba Canvio usb e05a032bau2xk.

    It worked fine, but not now.
    My OS is win xp, sp3, home ed.

    The Toshiba drive is more steady and is almost impossible to work with now. I checked with Device Manager that says the drive is working correctly.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver, cleaned and Defrag the disk (when I was able to access) but it works still very badly now!

    What else can I do to find out what is the problem with this Toshiba drive and return it works reliably?

    Thank you

    How can I make my Toshiba Canvio 3 TB on extradition State?

    I deleted the partitions!

    You have deleted all partitions and don't create all backups in the past?
    Well, I guess that you will not be able to recover these new partitions :(

  • Data storage 3.5 "Toshiba Canvio problem with permanent fade.

    Since I started using the Toshiba Canvio 3 TB 3.5 "external data storige disc he found himself a strange faul which makes it difficult to use.

    Data storage, for example when I use it to watch a video file off and then it start immediately again to go back... It can happen to the breast of a movie 20 times and it is very annoying because you never know when the judgment will happen...

    How to fix this please?

    Hello

    In my opinion it is not very easy to say why the external HARD disk automatically turns off while watching a movie. But this issue does not seem that there might be something wrong with the settings or software.
    Of course, some tools are available and installed on the HARD drive as the NTI Backup Now EZ software but I n t think that this could affect the playback of the movie. However, this software supports and automatic backup function and you can change how often your backup intervenes (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.). So try to disable this setting for testing purposes.

    Fact is that this 3.5 HARD drive must be connected to a power adapter and HARD drive supports the USB 3.0 interface but it s backward compatible with USB 2.0.

    I put t know what are the USB ports you have used for the connection of HARD drive, but I recommend you test all the USB ports taken in charge by the PC.

    Last but not least, it could be possible that there is a hardware problem simple HARD drive

    Each HARD disk belongs to "wear".
    What does that mean? Well, sooner or later each HARD drive is going to die... and in most cases, these questions appear suddenly and are surprising.

    This HARD drive is a device of simple plug ' n play... This means that you have to connect it to the USB port and it should work...
    If this is not the case, the unit may malfunction and usually it is not repairable.
