Update disk for Satellite M30X-102

Hello

No one knows what drives I can install in my M30x?
Currently, I have a 40 GB toshiba drive. I would like to know if BIOS supports more than 80 GB drives.
Thank you!

Hello

Well, I quite agree with the position of the user of the comments above.
If you use a disk HARD with size is not compatible if the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive successfully.
You must use the HARD drive with the size of the support.
But in your case the Satellite M30X should support 40 GB HARD disk sizes / 60 GB and 80 GB 5400 RPM and a size of 100 GB HARD drive at 4200 RPM.

Goodbye :)

  • Update hard disk for Satellite 1900 102

    Hi all

    I used to work with a Toshiba Satellite 1900 102 since July 2002 and March my hard drive has stopped working (maybe it was time).
    Where can I buy records 2.5 "that this series of satellites can be supported?

    What is the maximum capacity (in GB) laptop that recognizes the old man?

    Thanks for all your help!

    Hello

    2.5 hard drives can be bought anywhere I think then, either you contact an authorized service provider or you visit your favorite computer store.

    I think that the Satellite 1900 limits the 28-bit LBA. This would mean that the size of the HARD disk is limited to 128 GB. The maximum capacity is 120 GB that you can use, but I think that 80 GB would be enough according to your amount of files you want to save on the HARD drive.

    If you have any other questions please let us know! :)

    and / or
    A replacement hard drive part number

    Many thanks in advance

    Hello

    I've checked a few threads here on the forum because these themes where already discussed and M30X needs an IDE HDD to my knowledge it s interface IDE (ATA-6)

    Marina has already suggested that some larger HDD (160 GB, 200 GB) might be unsupported and that he would not be recognized by the BIOS.

    This is why I would recommend checking some small s: drive HARD 80 GB & 100 GB

  • New update of hard disk for Satellite L670D-102

    Hello

    I need to get windows 7 on my old hard drive and on my new hard drive update. I can't find "media copy" file/folder. I did a windows disc when I arrived as he forced me to do but only loads a 'safe' version of windows on the new hd and wonder for other discs.

    Local dealer believes there are 3 back up discs to load up. I tried to save, but it takes more than 7 DVDs and still unfinished when I run out of time. Takes all day to do it. I tried an 'image system' through the windows and that works, but said that the new disk is the same size that the old image of disk system has been removed. Old drive 250 GB I think, new drive is 1 TB. Local dealer said try to reset the computer to the factory and see if "copy media" thread/folder reappears.

    Someone at - it ideas please!

    Message has been modified: the model name added to title

    At first, I must say that you must tell us which model of laptop you have exactly.

    In general the whole situation is pretty simple. Your laptop came with the version of the OS pre-installed (recovery image). Using preinstalled Toshiba media creator you recovery tool can create bootable recovery (DVD or USB) media that you can use for the installation of recovery.

    After HDD just change boot image recovery this recovery media created facility.

    To be honest I do not understand your ad and you wrote all this has created media.

    3. What is the size (dimensions) of the HARD drive I have to
    use? 2.5 "? What top?
    4. when the HARD drive is located in the notebook?
    5. can you explain the exchange procedure? -Open Notepad.

    Thank you for your support.

    Hello Belinda,.

    You should be able to change your laptop HARD drive without using an ESD wrist strap. It is worth "land" yourself in any case to make sure that you don't carry a lot of static accumulation, but a wrist strap is really required only when working close to RAM or graphics or advice chips.

    I don't know exactly where the HARD drive is on your laptop, but if there is no immediately obvious on the bottom access panel and the edges of the device, it can be accessed in the optical drive (the A30 Satellite for this), under the keyboard, or under the battery.

    Don't gorget you need to transfer the caddy Assembly to the new drive and remove/replace the drive with caution to avoid damaging the pins.

    Good luck

  • Satellite M30X-102: power question - unit suddenly turn off

    Hello!

    I have a portable Satellite M30X-102 and about a year ago and a half months he started to turn off suddenly. First of all, it looked like an overheating problem, but also disabled directly after that I pressed the power button and sometimes it worked 10 hours without any problem, also, when it is off, power LED was flashing until I have Nations United - and replugend the power cable. If the battery was, he was immediately released.

    I sent it to repairs. They only cleaned the cooler and changed the dough to thermal conductivity and for a few days, the laptop worked normally, but about half hours ago, it happened again. I am convinced now that this is a power supply problem, possibly the power cable.

    You have any suggestions of what I could do, or should I send it back with a note that it is a power supply problem?

    Thank you

    [Edited by: admin March 23 06 06:56]

    Hello

    In my opinion, you should contact the service because it can start diagnostic tests.
    For me, this looks like an electronic malfunction of power supply.
    If the laptop has been repaired it there a few days/weeks, so I guess that the guarantee is valid.

    Hello

    I checked the Toshiba download page, and it has listed all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for Satellite M30X.

    I just hope that you have installed in the correct order. As you can see there are two display (Intel and ATI) drivers. Make sure that you have chosen the right way. Drivers LAN and WLAN are also there. Just start with the setup.exe file and follow the instructions to facilities.

  • Update the driver for graphics card for Satellite M30x

    I need to update the video card driver in my Satellite M30X (ATI mobility Radeon 9600/9700). Where can I find the latest version?

    On the toshiba support page, there is only an older version (dic.2004). I already tried to install a feeding at ATI.com but failed (suddenly stops and says that my system does not support this driver). I really need this update...

    Please help me

    Hello

    The driver from the ATI site will not help you. It is generally not possible to install the original graphic drivers from sites of s card on Toshiba laptops manufacturer.
    The Toshiba own graphics drivers are a bit modified and not the same as the original ATI drivers.

    However, the Web omegadrivers.net site provides drivers for ATI and NVidia chips and to my knowledge, it should be possible to install these drivers on your laptop.

  • How to connect a device to capture video for Satellite M30X 127

    I'm going round in circles trying to find a video capture device that will work with a laptop computer and would be grateful for advice. For example, I am now looking to the ' Canopus ADVC-110', although still looking autour (but not Pinnacle, which seem to have a bad reputation for the elements of capture).

    Problems include:

    1. the main problem is - many video capture devices require a "line-in" for PC for audio transfer of good quality. This laptop is not a line in, only headphones and mike catches. In addition, I also tried a few RCA pins into the 3.5 mm headset jack, and they were too small. How to solve the problem of getting audio from the VCR to my PC?

    2. the ADVC-110 connects to the PC via Firewire (and S-video), but is a type of SIX pins. M30X is a FOUR pin type. There are adapters available?

    3. Some capture programs seem to require a huge capacity of RAM. A laptop will be adapted to do the job? (I just want to capture old VCR to PC vhs tapes, and then burn it to DVD with Nero 7 or similar).

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    You are right! You must use an external device for the transmission of signals to your laptop. I put t know where you have this info but I have good experiences with Pinnacle product. I used the USB data transfer.

    "Canopus ADVC-110 is not known to me, but I put t see why this shouldn't work well." Use made software for video capture and there should not be any problem.

    The only thing is that, after registration of video equipment together must be prepared to burn and the unit need a lot of power to do this well und fast. When you buy it and to use on the way I recommend to extend the RAM to 1 GB.

    Compatible memory modules for your Satellite M30x are:
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

    Hello

    It is a shame. I know the problem, if you have lost a Toshiba Recovery CD, then you go to a Service partner and sign a solemn declaration (it is a restriction of M$) and you will get a new recovery CD.

    You could ask a Greek Service partner if it is possible to do?
