Update of SATA HDD on 8300

Is it possible to upgrade my OEM (I think) of HDD on my 8300 on a SATA drive?

I know there are kits to upgrade laptop hard drives where the info from the old hard drive is mirrored on the new so a simple permutation can be performed and your laptop starts right with the new drive.

Is this possible with disks 3.5 "?

Thank you!

    I also tried to download drivers intel after searching other threads, and it does not work through floppy.

    I also added the drivers toshiba XP ISO using nlite to create a disk slipstream and while xp is loading the disc, I noticed 'pilot toshiba raid' being installed. Same no result no hard drive found.

    According to the specifications on this page:

    Your laptop's Ide interface, as far as I know on the old IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits, which means that the laptop can only manage hard disks up to 128 GB.

  • Tecra M5: Need support USB2 for SATA HDD

    My beautiful new Tecra M5 uses a SATA drive, but most USB enclosures still accept only IDE drives. My question is: does anyone know of a door-USB2 for a SATA drive?

    I would like a similar disk box USB2 to backup my Tecra laptop by cloning the full hard drive (using Casper XP). If/when the primary drive fails, or some other calamity, all strikes do I have to do is to replace the internal drive with USB support. (It is not so common, but my hard drive failed once, and the cloned drive saved the day).

    Until I can find a SATA support I use Acronis True Image to backup on an IDE drive images in a USB support. Even if it seems effective, I'd rather have a cloned drive because it is easier to make a recovery dummy to prove that the procedure works without risking to damage the data on the primary disk simultaneously.

    Hello

    As far as I know the external uses the IDE interface.
    I have not seen cases of HARD drive external for a SATA HDD.
    But you can also use the external USB case with an IDE interface for backups. But you need a new HARD drive. But the HARD drive are not very expensive (depends on the size of the HARD disk)
    You can save the backup image to a file and then you can place the file on the external HARD drive.
    If something goes wrong with your OS, so you can use the backup file to restore your operating system.

  • Installation of a second SATA HDD in 500-304nd Pavilion

    I recently bought the Office mentioned in the topic, as well as a second 1 TB SATA HDD to add. I found the connections for a second car but unable to find a place on the computer chassis to physically install the disk. What is the secret here? Do I need a room to mount the HARD drive and if so: where can I find one?

    Thanks for your response!

    I found a simple solution to mount the second HDD:
    -J' noticed that the HARD disk that comes with the computer is mounted using the holes at the bottom.
    -J' used the screw holes on both sides of the HARD drive and those identical on the second HARD drive, using four strips of metal (with screw holes on the same distance as the thickness of a HARD drive) and eight live, to link the two together.

  • Satellite A200-1 g (PSAECE) Win XP. Need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300

    Hi all.
    I would install XP instead of Vista on my note. As far as I know, XP has no builtin for SATA driver. I found no drivers for GeForce 7300 on the toshiba Web site. So I need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300. Where can I find them?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why must you SATA XP drivers? You are not able to install XP because the HARD drive is not visible?

    With regard to the nVidia drivers:
    It seems that the A200 notebooks were shipped with a different hardware configuration.
    Some laptops come with the Intel GPU and some with nVidia graphics card.
    The Intel GPU driver is available on the Toshiba page.

    Graphic driver nVidia can be downloaded from the site Web of Toshiba Canada or 3rd sites like www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com

    Thanks for all the suggestions

    I suspect that you are using an older version of Ghost.  I suggest that you contact Norton Support to find out how to work around this problem.  SATA drives need special drivers (or return them to IDE mode in the bios of the computer, but I don't know what will happen good stability when you do) to run in BACK only.

    Hi Javed Afzal


    Step 1:

    You can check if all connections for the reader are clean.

    Step 2:

    You can also check if the drive is visible in disk management. To open disk management followed the steps - below
    a. Click Start and in the search box, type Run.
    b. in the Run dialog box type diskmgmt.msc and press ENTER. This will open disk management.

     

    I hope this helps.

    The SATA drive bigger than we sell to the C6100 2 TB, but we sell Nearline SAS up to 4 TB of the C6100. I see no reason for a SATA drive more 2 TB should not operate.

    I have 2 x 750 GB SATA HDD that are not detected at boot of the server. Obviously, the installation of Windows Server 2012 is not possible because it does not find any drive installed in the system

  • Compaq Presario SR1214NX desktop PC: update BIOS for SATA HDD?

    Hi CV Experts.

    In 2004, I bought a HP Compaq Presario SR1214NX desktop PC. Now, leave the original hard drive and I bought a new Seagate 500 GB SATA hard drive. I thought that this would work because the PC MoBo has two SATA connectors. After installation, I noticed the drive is not detected. I checked the BIOS but not hard listed. The installed BIOS is "BIOS Award BIOS Core Version 6.0 revision 3.10 26/07/2004.» What can I do? Is there a BIOS update available?

    Help, please!

    Do more research on this issue, I think that this motherboard may not have native support SATA. You can use ports SATA via Windows after you have installed the necessary drivers. I suggest that you add a primary as hard drive IDE PATA drive and load Windows. Post windows installation, install the necessary SATA drivers and plug the secondary drive SATA for use as a hard disk.

    I'm sorry for all of the early confused communications.

  • Updated SATA Hdd

    I have a Pavilion a1220a with a hard disk of 60Go eager to move to a 640GO and completely remove the old drive I was wondering how can I keep the partion of backup and how is the transfer/clone...

    Yes the theory, it would work... but the best thing to do would be to clone the image of the entire disk and rerun recovery.  Personally, I recommend just using the HP recovery discs to reinstall everything from scratch.  You can call HP and order them for a fee or make yourself using the built-in recovery disc creator (if available)

  • Can I use SATA HDD on Satellite L20-183?

    I have a satellite L20-183 with a P - ATA hard drive connector. Is it possible to change the connector to a SATA hard? Where can I find such a connector for my model?

    Thank you.

    When you open the cover of the HARD drive, you will see there is not a lot of room inside and behind the HARD drive, there is a single cm only. You need this place for HDD disconnect with this adapter so I think there is no way to put the HARD drive inside or out of the place.

    In any case, I'm 100% sure that these updates is not possible.
