Updated HP Dv7-4272us hard drive?

I have a HP dv7-4272us with an AMD Phenom 2 Triple Core processor P860 with 8 GB of ram and a 750 GB hard drive running Windows 7 Pro. I want to replace the hard drive 750 with a 1 TB drive and add a 2nd 1 TB hard drive in the empty slot. My O.S. can't manage this configuration and what materials and cables do I need to install the 2nd drive?

Hello

Your laptop works perfectly with 2 x 1 TB drives - is an example of the caddy HARD drive and cable, that you will need for the 2nd drive on the following link.

  • Update of RAM and hard drive for Compaq 6710 b

    Hey guys,.

    I had Compaq 6710 b and I'll update my Ram and HARD drive on it with these (link here)

    On the system view, it says memory: 1.99 Gb and the Crucial site gives these details:

    Maximum memory: 4 GB
    Slots: 2

    But I looked under the hood of the ram and only thing I saw was a simple location with stick of 1 GB (below Sorry for bad quality and light photos)

  • Looking to update my first internal hard drive 2011 MBP

    Instead of recently updated to a new external drive.

    I thought it may be time to update HDD internal (500 GB) original on my MPB.

    I have 8 GB of RAM and internal light enough to keep my drive in without worrying about storage and applications.

    Everyone updated their MPB HDD with a 7200 RPM disk or an SSD?

    If so, what drives internal you would very recommend?

    Search for better performance and faster read write time.

    My 500 GB drive is barely filled. There are currently about 150 GB of data used.

    Much appreciate your comments and experience once the internal drive has been updated.

    Ant case 2.5 "HDD or SSD will be compatible with your MBP.  Here is just one example of what is available:

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-notebook/

    Maximum capacity at the moment is 2 TB, enough for almost all users and by eliminating the need for storage of primary data on an external drive.  I currently have 1 TB SSD Crucial in my Mbps in 2010 and 2011.  Would they change a profound impact on the performance of the computer.  If the bank account is fat, install an SSD.  If not, faster turns HARD drive will be better, but not as much as the speed difference may suggest compared with the 5400 RPM HARD drive.

    Based on reputation, the best currently available SSD is OWC and Crucial.  Although I prefer HGST and Seagate HDD, one brand will do that are listed in the link I have provided.

    As a side note, your MBP will support up to 16 GB of RAM.  OWC and Crucial are the best sources for RAM Mac compatible.

    Ciao.

  • Satellite A660 - 18 BIOS update & fails (re-visited) HARD drive recovery

    Referring to an old thread from my friends...

    I tried earlier to update the BIOS of v1.80 for v1.90 (whether by the automatic update tool Service Station and the direct download of the update of the BIOS).

    Whenever the update of the BIOS ran, he abandoned arguing that the battery was low (it was not), alternating current was not on (it is) and the existing BIOS version was superior to the new version (it wasn't).

    The real problem seems to be that the version of the BIOS (as shown in "Toshiba HWSetup") is:

    + The BIOS version = V234567890. 00/00/00000000000 +.
    + Version EC = 1.80 +.

    However, in the Diagnostic PC Toshiba tool the BIOS version on the page of basic information is correctly reported as 1.80

    At the point where I couldn't be worth blat my disc with the original image and try again. I was hoping that Toshiba would set the BIOS update to fix the problem. Didn't happen.

    They released v2.00 BIOS in June 2011 and would not always up to date. So I backed up my data and tried to blat of the machine to factory State. What a nightmare...

    The recovery image doesn't work well at all!

    The first bit works (the original partition creation and image copy), but after the startup of Windows and the script factory Toshiba intervenes, all sorts of problems begin.

    First of all, the thing stuck several times in a process of "assessment of system performance. This happens in several phases of reboots because the drivers are installed. Then there's a bunch of bug script error messages and DMI analyze the errors you will need to click on ' close and do not report the crash "type dialog. What makes it more difficult is that the Toshiba factory configuration script sets up a blank page trying to see you on what the bureau is to be avoided. Even if you try to pass in the Manager of tasks to complete the process deadlocked, it gives you a few seconds grace before forcing the Office to lock and hide behind the white screen again. If you're quick and good time, you can stop the evaluation of performance at a standstill (I think it's just the thing to the Windows Experience score). Same thing to reject the other boxes of error...

    Finally, I arrived at the end of the script and the machine was built with all of the original software.

    The program HWSetup still reports the version of BIOS of nonsense and the PC Diagnostic tool always reports it correctly.

    The Service Station program now does not even start. It crashes with a message + "request the Toshiba Service Station could not initialize. Try to restart or reinstall the application. » +. I downloaded the last being on the website and installed... To be hosted later with the same message.

    Program update direct BIOS for v2.00 made his usual thing you ask that the current BIOS version is greater than 200 and abandonment.

    I even read in a FAQ that some recovery routines do not work correctly with more than 4 GB of RAM (I have 8 GB). So I did all of this once again with only 4 GB installed and the script was just as broken for 4 GB 8 GB.

    I ran PC complete diagnosis for machine test suite and it turned up nothing.

    A little confused now... Maybe time to log a failure while I have a few more months of warranty left. But the machine actually works, just can't update the BIOS. Would be my luck if a problem arose just after the warranty has expired, and they said 'just update the BIOS...

    In front of me, I 3 laptop years. Over the past three years, Toshiba has offered 3 BIOS updates. I don t care about it and still use the original version that I got with my laptop. I want to say, why change anything and start this risky If update everything works fine and it does.

    Several times I have read here that people write about the problems of updating the BIOS and damaged BIOS. This risk does not apply to me just having the latest version.

    Anyway, if you want to have all past orders on your laptop, it is without a doubt your legitimate right. In General, the BIOS updates are tested before Toshiba offers for download so I really put t understand why you have this kind of problems. The problem with the installation of recovery is also strange.

    A few months ago, a friend of mine bought A660 and I helped him create recovery DVDs, and we also tested the recovery procedure everything including the three options:
    Back to out-of-box state
    Recover without changing the hard drive partitions
    Get a custom size partition

    Everything worked perfectly so I m really confused about everything you write.

    Unfortunately, I can't help you with this. When I could have your laptop in front of me to see exactly what is happening, it will be much easier to understand all of this.
    I updated the BIOS on different laptops, and I got lucky because every time that everything was fine.

    Your laptop is guaranteed valid so I recommend you contact Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for assistance.
    What do you think about this?

  • Update on Satellite L850 HARD drive

    Hello

    I bought Toshiba Satellite L850-A846 already for several months and my hard is completely filled
    and the cause of the nature of my work, I can't buy an external hard

    So I wonder if I can replace my hard intern (640g) with (2 t)
    I don't know my motherboard type and if it is compatible or not?

    Also, I want to know if I can do it. Will this void my warranty license?

    My number if you want to:
    PSKDLV

    Problem is that Toshiba doesn't provide any update list where you can find a list of compatible parts that can be improved.
    Still, HARD drive upgrade can be done by the owner for s (described in the manuals) laptop and it will not void phone warranty s.

    To find out what drives and what capacity max can be problematic.
    You can just hope that someone here has any experience with this and will issue a brief report.
    Otherwise, you can try to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. Maybe they can help you with all this.

  • UPDATE THE BIOS AND HARD DRIVE

    Hi, I'm going to do a clean install of win. 7 home Premium and I would like to upgrade the Bios and installing a hard drive SSD 120 GB and 2 GB of ram.

    Intel pentium dual core 2.6

    PC built Sept 2009

    I looked at the Hp site but could not find an update for my bios.  Mobo is Foxconn Eton 1.0 and the Bios is FRIEND 5.05 25.09.2009

    A scan utility (Bios Agent) indicates that there is an update, but they require payment for flashing the bios.  In case I have some concerns, and many would prefer to download Hp or Foxconn.  I looked on the sites Web from Foxconn and FRIEND, but they require a lot & a lot of information that I don't have and don't know where to find them. I was hoping someone might have the same PC to give me information.

    Also to install the disk SSD drive I brobably would need an adapter to allow the reader to 2.5 inches to fit into the drive 3.5 "bracket. Apart from this, the connectors on the SSD drives all seem to be the same.  is this correct please or will it take a SSD and a specific to my PC case and my existing hard drive adapter.

    Thank you

    Hi thanks for your help, advice and information: my PC was purchased in January 2009 is a little more than 4 years.  The upgrade would cost 130 pounds. I could not buy a decent PC with 4 GB ram and an SSD for under £500.   I do not download music or movies, or make more than a small base video editing so I'm sure that with these improvements, there will be more than enough for me.

    One thing doesn't bother me.  It seems that when buying a PC Bios updates are available for the first 2/3 years, but not thereafter.  It would not have occurred to me to look for an update of the bios, during this period just simply because I thought that they were issued only when necessary to take into account improvements and new technologies so thanks for that. you live & learn.

    I'm trying to teach me the 'nuts & bolts' repair and fix PC problems and I guess that's the main use for my PC.  Experiment with a new £500 Pc would scare me to death.

    I'm on Linux Ubuntu 13.1 without any problems on my PC Dell 9 years and XP Pro on my HP Pavilion 13, so maybe I can do my Compaq last a little longer.

    Once again thank you very much.  its part of the process of learning.  see you soon

  • Update of Windows, external hard drive + sound problems

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1720 with Windows Vista installed. I recently bought a Western Digital 1 TB external hard drive, which I forgot to unplug a couple times when I turned off the computer... Windows normally the thing 'install updates & stop', and I'm sure that he accidentally put the files to one of these updates on my hard drive, because a little bit ago, I noticedthis new file . He also said that the hard drive is used whenever I'm trying to remove it safely, even if I did open / running. I wonder if there is a way to solve this problem...? Is it safe to just delete the files from my external hard drive?

    In addition, around the same time, through the speakers of my laptop stopped working. He still works perfectly with headphones plugged in however. In playback devices, speakers/headphones (SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC) is active and supposed to be 'working '. When I check with Device Manager, it says that the software is up-to-date and fully functional. I wonder if this could possibly be linked to a bad Windows update... and also how to fix it.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Pavilion dv7-4285dx hard drive

    The hard drive on 2 years, Pavilion dv7-4285dx of my son is dead. It's a Samsung HM641JI, 640 GB, 5400 RPM. can anyone recommend a good replacement for this notebook drive? The new drive can we (GB) smaller than the original? Should I just stick with the same Samsung drive? Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.
    PS - I use the recovery discs just purchased from HP to restore the new drive.

    Hello

    You can use standard HDD from other providers. Nowadays people need more space, go for a larger HARD drive, it's a wise move. The recovery disc may not install on a smaller HARD disk because it will put your machine back to the factory settings.

    Kind regards.

  • Pavilion dv7, 1016nr: hard drive card on HP laptop Toshiba

    I had a HP used off craigslist, because my Toshiba laptop crashed. I replaced the hard drive with the Toshiba, but now, the CPU it's again a Toshiba! He's trying to look for records that do not exist, the bitrate is mixed up, and I can't do certain things because of this!

    The operating system was the Toshiba, and I don't know what specifications are contained in the hard disk. Help, please!

    I know, but the problem is the hard disk that came with it is FULL of viruses, and I don't want to connect two of them in the same device, or even that you use at all. I'm on an allowance now, so I can't exactly buy a new, can't use both at the same time, otherwise the laptop overheats.

    I could try using Malwarebytes on that hard drive and transfer files from the old and hopefully get Speedfan to find the fan that cools this thing.

    WoW! t helps a lot when you have something to talk about when things to know!

    I have that now to 1 question: what are the functions of the computer are stored in the hard drive?

    (also, is a sale "day of service", or am I just lucky?) (More ugly. Emoji. Never.))

  • Advice of failure - time for an update system - Qosmio G15 HARD drive please

    Hey people,

    Thus, it seems that my C drive died on my G15. I managed to recover most of my data and I am always under scans now. However, I don't think that I can trust the machine and bought a new hard drive. Now things are messy to messier.

    Apparently it's quite easy to do a refresh of the system if you have a few CD of restoration that is supposed to come with the machine.
    However the only my laptop recovery CD came with the recovery of Qosmio player is. Not very useful given that I do not use the player in any case.

    So I wonder now what is my best bet? I have been open to trying Linux, or would like to come back to Win 2 K.
    However, it seems that most of the drivers is for Win XP?

    Because I don't have the recovery disc, it seems that I can go there with regular XP Pro. Who's going to be a problem? Also there are tons of drivers on the Toshiba site. Are there best practices for how they all need to go? I came across some threads here that suggests that the drivers must be installed in a very special way. I also noticed that some discussions referred to threads that detail the process of installing XP, but I could not find these discussions.

    I am quite computer literate and know what I'm doing. But I want to get this right on the first attempt, not the 3rd or 4th or 5th etc... I need this machine to turn as soon as possible so I can get back to work. I already spent a week doing the scans in the car and trying to recover the data that I can.

    I got really excited when I discovered there was a recovery of the G15 disc, and I might be able to do a faster refresh than I thought. Then very disappointed when I discovered that I never had one of these recovery discs with my cpu!

    Thanks for any help you can offer!
