Upgrade port FireWire on Satellite L20

Can I add a port firewire on my laptop? How?
I'm so sad because most of the laptop has this port.

Hi Danira,

The best way for you to add firewire ports would be a PCMCIA adapter according to this link http://kryton.clickandbuild.com/cnb/shop/directusbstore?productID=73&op=catalogue-product_info-null&prodCategoryID=23.

Would you firewire capability without having to disassemble your laptop which would affect your warranty.

Kind regards

  • Question about upgrading memory on the Satellite L20-181

    Hello

    The recommended minimum is memory for Windwows XP 256 MB and I don't understand how the company could get far notebook sale with integrated graphics with 256 MB shared system memory.

    In any case, I want to improve my Toshiba and my intention is to buy 512 MB more memory, such as http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=20049&ft=m&st=3

    Will it work properly with 768 MB or I will only buy the same pair: 256 + 256, 512 + 512?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    First of all, you are not right. Windows XP also works with the low value of the memory.
    But of course it depends on memory so the OS applications will run more rapid or slower.

    However, the fact is that you can upgrade the memory on your laptop and it doesn't mater if the modules have the same value of memory or not.
    In this case, the laptop came with 256 MB and you can install detox the second module of 512 MB memory.

    PS: I recommend installing the 512 MB in the first slot and the 256 MB in the second Bank.

  • Replicator port or docking station for Satellite L20

    Hello
    Can someone tell me if a Replicator port or docking station, there are satellite pro L20 model?
    I searched around, and every time I check the specifications of compatibility, it is usually a Toshiba laptop or 2 and often some of the satellites 'L' series, but no mention of the L20.

    Thanks for any help you can give.

    Hello

    I agree with Akuma.
    You may not use a dock under Satellite L20.
    If you take a glance at the bottom of the device, you will not find a necessary home slot that would be needed to connect the docking station.

    But of course you can use some sort of port connected to the USB port replicator.

    See you soon

  • HARD drive to upgrade SSD in Satellite L20-183

  • Upgrading processor on Satellite L20-181

    Can I insert in my laptop Toshiba Satellite L20-181 (Intel Celeron M 380 processor) Intel Pentium 4 processor 521 (for laptop)?

    Sorry, my English is weak.

    Hello

    No, to my knowledge it of certainly not possible to upgrade the satellite L20 with a processor Intel P4 CPU.
    As far as I know that the motherboard supports a mobile Intel socket 479 and it should be possible to use only the processors Celeron-M as follows:
    Intel Celeron M 350 (1.30 GHz) - 360 (1.40 GHz) - 370 (1.50 GHz) - 380 (1.60 GHz) with 400 Mhz FSB

    In my opinion the stronger processors will cause overheating.

  • Upgrade memory of satellite L20-181

    Hey all

    I want to upgrade memory on my Toshiba Satellite L20-181.
    Now I have 256 MB and I want to add another stick of memory to 256 MB.
    Could you please inform me about the type of memory has this laptop?
    On the site it is said:
    Standard system memory: 256 MB
    maximum scalability: 2 048 MB
    technology: DDR2 RAM

    DDR2?
    A link with such a memory would be very useful.
    Also, anyway to buy memory online?

    Best regards

    Hello

    The news that you are quite right. Toshiba has tested this laptop with the memory modules to follow:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

    As you can see it's memory module DDR2 and if you use the part (PA.) to the Google number, you will find many online offereor where you can order this tested memory. I recommend buying the original or perhaps module of Kingston. On this way, you will be sure that the new module will be recognized correctly.

    Good luck!

  • Upgrading RAM on satellite L20-217

    Hi guys,.

    I have a satellite L20-217 and I'm looking to upgrade my ram 256 to 2 GB (or at least 1 GB). I did some research but I am still confused about this module (s) to buy and how to install it. I'm new on this and I will be very grateful if anyone can advise me on what to do, thank you.

    PS: Is it possible to switch from a celeron M to a dual core processor?

    Hello

    Man of good news:

    The L20 can be upgraded up to 2 GB!
    Please visit this page;
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=31173&ft=m&St=3

    You simply DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM bars!

    Module slots are placed at the bottom of the unit.
    There must be only one screw removed and you will see two slots!

    The replacement is not very delicate and must be described in the manual very well!

    With regard to the replacement of the CPU:

    The replacement of the CPU is very delicate and particularly is not possible for different reasons!

  • Satellite L20-182: is it possible to upgrade processor?

    Hello. I have a Toshiba Satellite L20 - 182 and I want to change the CPU.
    My CPU is the Celeron M 380 (1.6 Ghz), and I want to install Pentium M.
    Can I do it?
    If I can, can what Pentium M I install on my motherboard?
    Please answer me.

    Sebastian K., from the Poland

    Hello

    Well, in general it of not possible to upgrade the processor.
    Some processors are fixed mounted on the motherboard.
    In addition, the processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a permanent connection method and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation

    Just for info:
    I found some Satellite L20 units which are supplied with different processors.
    For example:
    Satellite L20-204 Intel-Pentium-M (Dothan) 750 1.86GHz
    Satellite L20-214 Intel-Pentium-M (Dothan) 740 1.73GHz
    Satellite L20-300 Intel-Celeron-M (Dothan) 370 1.5GHz

  • Satellite L20-100 - what modules of RAM can I use for the upgrade?

    Hi all

    I have TOSHIBA Satellite L20-100 and I need to upgrade the ram memory up to 2 GB.
    I found these models on the internet but I don't know that it is compatible with my computer laptop or not.

    the following module on the eBay store:

    * 1 GB Kingston DDR2 667 Mhz 1 GB DDR laptop 2 NB RAM *.
    * Hynix 1 GB RAM DDR2 5300 s - computer notebook memory 667 MHz *.
    * ASint 1 GB DDR2-667 PC2-5300 PORTABLE 200 pin MEMORY *.

    Already now I have 512 DDR2 667 Mhz

    Or any knows from where can I update the correct RAM?

    Hello

    Theoretically, you can use all modules store because all the modules to meet specifications, DDR2-RAM, 1 GB, etc. for example.

    In your case, I'd take the Kingston RAM. I've never heard ASint RAM, but I have good experiences with RAM Kingston. I always use Kingston RAM to upgrade my notebooks and never had any problems.

    Last but not least, you can also buy RAM of an authorized service provider.

  • HARD disk space reduced after upgrade of RAM on my Satellite L20

    Hello

    I upgraded my Satellite L20-120 to memory 2 GB of Ram (2 x 1 Go DDR2-Ram),
    but this seems to my 1 GB free hard drive space. If I use my old 1 GB Ram
    (2x512MB DDR2-Ram), the add.1GB is available again. OS is Win XP Pro.

    Everyone does now the reason to this?

    Thanks in advance.

    According to the specifications of your Satellite L20 follow Rams:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)

  • Wanting to upgrade the CPU in the satellite L20 196

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum but have owned this laptop new a moment right now. As time has passed I noticed he has aged rapidly in recent months and needs a boost of speed.
    I upgraded the RAM, a matching pair to 1 GB (896 MB showing, guess that's graphic shared?), but still not quite quickly enough.

    My question is, can I upgrade the processor to a Pentium M or at least a faster Celeron?
    If Yes, then what is the best possible processor that will be compatible? Autour Googling, I see I'm not alone on this idea, but all the info and comments where other L20 and not my model 196 in question.
    Do I have reason to believe that the limits are 400 Mhz FSB, 1.5 GHz and 478 pins for this laptop?
    Finally, I replaced and rebuilt a lot of PC in the past. A laptop (my L20) is much more difficult to remove and replace a CPU?

    Thank you and look forward to any comments thereon.

    In General, the CPU upgrade is not supported. More info on what you can read under http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    To be clear. Your Satellite L20 is really not the best laptop and on the scale of 1 to 5 when 5 of the best, I give your laptop 2. This laptop is designed for day-to-day activities like Office, internet, watching movies, listening to music and writing emails. So I think that with the preinstalled operating system and well set to own and 1 GB of RAM, it must have enough power for this.

    I don't know what you want to do with this good old classic, but if you need laptop with more power for games or multimedia activities, I think it's time for the new laptop computer.

    Please don't be crazy on me because I did not offer exact answer, but I just want to be realistic and honest with you.

  • Satellite L20-183 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello!

    I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite L20-183. I would like to change the hard drive TOSHIBA MK6032GSX to a larger and more rapid as: WD 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 Mb SATA2 Notebook WD3200BEKT.
    It will be compatible or should I buy SATA 1 HDD 5400 RPM?

    Hello

    Satellite L20 works with disk HARD SATA 1 and maximum capacity, with which it was delivered was 100 GB but I think 320 should not be problematic.
    RPM MAX was 5400 then I think you should buy the HARD disk with the same number of TURNS.

  • Satellite L20 - drivers for Vista available?

    Hello

    I use Satellite L20 with Windows XP. Now, I want to improve my OS to Vista/Windows 7. I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20. If I install vista on my L20 (PSL2XL-01R007), the drivers will be available?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    > Now I want to upgrade my OS to Vista/Windows 7
    You want to upgrade to Vista * or * Windows 7?

    > I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20
    I think that it s depending on whether Toshiba provides drivers for Vista or Windows 7 for Satellite L20. These drivers are usually placed on the official page to download driver of Toshiba.
    Satellite L20 PSL2XL seems to be an Asian model, so I checked the Toshiba Asia page, but there are just available Windows XP drivers. The European page also shows only XP drivers :(

    This means that only XP is supported, but you can try to get all the drivers yourself on external pages. Probably, you will find all the drivers you need. Here are some pages where you can perform a search:

    [www.realtek.com]
