Toshiba Canvio Connect - 2.5 "2 TB (HDTC720EW3CA) - required details

Is someone can you please tell me what drive is inside of that?
I am interested in the size and spindle speed.

Thank you very much!

The case cannot be opened. It of not possible to remove the disk from the enclosure without damaging the body.

But I really don't understand why you want to use an external USB HDD as a HARD drive internal?
It is much easier to buy a drive HARD SATA 2.5 internal if you want to use it in a notebook.

  • Canvio Connect HARD drive - how to get 10 GB of storage with Mac icloud

    Hi I have a 500 GB drive HARD Canvio connect. I formatted to FAT32. In doing so, I have (I think) removed the pre-installed driver needed to get my 10 GB of storage free icloud. When I look at the toshiba site it says do not download here or you will get only 5 GB of storage instead of 10 GB. any suggestions how to get all of the 10 GB advertised on the box?

    Almost the same question, where is an answer?

  • Canvio Connect II power management

    I have a Canvio Connect II 3 TB drive and I'm annoyed by the fact he's going into a deep sleep after a few minutes of inactivity, and it takes a lot to wake up to the top. This is my first Toshiba, all my other WD drives drive (Toshiba was the first to release a 3 TB portable 2.5 in car at a decent price), and I have never such a a problem with them, they all last much longer long to fall asleep and wake up much more quickly.

    Is it possible to change the settings of this player power management? Preferably something Toshiba itself? Everything I could find on the web are unacceptable "corrections" that writing something on the disc every 4 minutes so he wants to stay or things like that. I would like to have a proper fix. And nothing ever Toshiba, not even an acknowledgement of the problem, which they seem to continue for at least 5 years already.

    If this isn't the case, someone knows how can I contact Toshiba support by email? The only option I found on the Web from Toshiba sites is to contact by phone, there is no other methods (such as email or a contact form), which looks very suspicious. I have only seen this sort of behavior with fake Asian companies ' selling ' good products at half price, but actually take your money and disappear. All serious manufacturers should offer several contact options. Although I bought my drive from UK, I do not live in the United Kingdom, and I don't want to spend money on international calls with support from Toshiba to only be thrown from one person to another and probably never received real support.

    I am very unhappy with this situation, and if it is is not resolved, it will be the only player Toshiba I'll never own, I'll stick to what I know, works very well in the future.

    Hi, same problem here with my two hard Toshiba USB drives (Stor.e Canvio 3.5 "Desktop, 2 TB + 4 to). I searched all over the internet, came to exactly the same conclusion as you: many 'solutions' with third party software which works only during the session or on the same system, so the same problem could reappear as soon as you connect your HD to a different device, re-install the operating system or whatever. Here is a quote from another thread in this forum that says it all:

    This is email support form

    ********
    Thank you for your recent inquiry to the subject of your hard drive Toshiba Canvio.

    We can confirm that there is no firmware downloads available for Toshiba external hard drives. (Energy saving) nature of use of the disc is because of the way it was built. Therefore, we can confirm that it is not editable.

    all better than toshiba support can solve this problem

    Post edited by: amk316

    Thus, it seems that Toshiba support won't help. I doubt that the problem is really "because of the way it was built', i.e.: caused by the material itself. or at least, I doubt that, even if that's the case, it can't be fixed by providing a new firmware. I guess that Toshiba DOES simply not invest time and money to solve the problem. Accordingly, like you, I never by a hard Toshiba will lead again if they don't change this attitude. Good luck anyway!

  • Canvio connect II does not work on Mac

    I have a canvio connect II and I had to format it because Windows 7 does not recognize, I did said Toshiba, for formatting so that the hard disk has unit.

  • 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.

  • Muvee software (comes with 2 TB Canvio Connect) will not download and install

    When I run the setup.exe at the root of my Toshiba 2 TB Canvio Connect USB hard drive, I go to the tab "muvee Reveal", then click on the Download"" button.

    He pushes me with a sign that says "you leave Canvio installer will be redirected to a Web site special muvee.", I then click on the "Continue" button and nothing happens.

    Any ideas? If anyone has installed successfully there can you please send me the URL.

    I guess that the 'special muvee website"is a page with a version of muvee Reveal that accepts a Canvio serial number as an unlock code or something similar.

    Thanks for your help

    Hey Buddy.

    I guess the tab do not transmit or view the muvee Web site properly.

    Why don't you visit this page and download the demo version of Muvee Reveal directly from the Internet Muevee site?

    Fact is that during the process of reading and writing the HARD disk head movement could create some noise but it's hard to say if more loud noise seems to indicate a HARD drive problem...

    I think that if you know not all this noise, get in touch with the dealer and ask for help...

    Hello

    I replaced my Station D3 3 to (I broke it...) with Toshiba Canvio Office 4 TB and I had a question. Why does not not on my tv (Samsung LE40C530)?

    My TV recognizes HDD - s only up to 2 TB, so I split the drive on two partitions (I did the same thing with db station and it worked perfectly...) but still it does not work, TV will not change even with media player when the player is connected, nothing...

    I tried everything, changing between TPG - MRB, different size of partition, different cables... but nothing seems to work.

    Then, I missing something here or is my brand new Toshiba Canvio Office 4TB just incompatible with my TV... I hope as the first but...

    Help, please!

    It is a HARD USB 3.0 drive.
    The TV supports the new USB 3.0 standard?

    I guess you should clarify that with your TV manufacturer support.

    What is the meaning of light blue or white light flashing on this HARD drive?

    On my model (Canvio Connect II) the port of blue led lights if connected to a port USB3 and white if connected to a USB2 (and probably USB1). I think the same thing applies to your model too.

    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?

    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 :(

    Of course, you can create other new partitions on this external HARD drive but unfortunately, the content is lost.

  • Toshiba Canvio fail to mount after a month

    Hi guys,.

    I have Toshiba Canvio 3T (HDWC130EK3J1) and it worked fine for a month. Now, it will fail to mount.

    I read on some forums that it could be a power issue. I have USB 2.0 and perhaps need a "cable Toshiba y." I do not understand if I was using just a week just why I would need a cable in 'Y' now HARD drive.

    I have not any other computer with USB 3.0 to check if it's the power-hungry drive is the "real problem".

    I have iMac
    Mac OS X 10.9.5

    Any help or ideas?

    Thank you!

    I forgot to add...

    Toshiba CANVIO does not appear in the disk utility... at all. Not on the desktop, or utility disk. Many worked yesterday, displayed on the desktop with the other two drives ext...

    I've tried different USB ports too. I can hear the disc running when it is plugged into my Mac. The light is too much but does not appear.

    I read the Toshiba site we on this product and I have TONS of bad reviews... many people call a reminder. Very disappointed to read of a supposed good Toshiba brand.

  • Toshiba Canvio 3TO HDD - does it support Win XP

    I'm looking for clarification of a new Toshiba Canvio external (3.5 in.) 3 hard to office, I bought Saturday in Zurich.
    I see on the area (under the heading - operating systems) new systems are listed. The only not listed is Windows XP.

    Yes, I know, that as April last Microsoft does support more XP, but as a supporter of the tech, I am also aware - through various publications of the computer industry, tech support Web sites and newsletters online (at least) that all over the world, probably more than a third or more of the computers use even the XP operating system.

    As I support technician private (which most cover newer systems) I have (since last spring) 30 + people I support who have decided
    stay with XP for a while. (I intend to support all the of them until my retirement at the end of this year).

    The last external Toshiba I bought (back up their data - last summer - listed for XP on the side of the box. A new does not list it. My question is, of course, (before I open the new Toshiba box) hardware will work fine with XP.

    I fully understand that their corporate point of view no matter what manufacturer of HD would not care claim no responsibility for the data via an operating system supported 'more '. And I quite accept it... and this responsibility for data.
    And I guess, basically, that's WHY a company would prepare the list is no longer an abandoned operating system.

    But I just wanted to ask (as mentioned above) if someone could give me a tip as to if this new WILLINGNESS of HD work with data on a XP computer.

    Thank you, in advance, for any info or advice...
    Mike

    As noted on the page Toshiba; It is a plug ' n play HDD and Win XP is supported.
    This means you don't need drivers in order to use this HARD drive... so I wonder why this HARD drive should NOT work under Win XP computer...

    You are right; Microsoft ended in own support of Win XP but in my opinion there is nothing to do with the use of this HARD drive...
