Upgrade RAM & HDD on Satellite L30-115
Hello
I have a Toshiba L30 - 115 and I want to update the default value to 1 GB / 2 GB of RAM and 160GB / 250GB hard drive is it possible and if so can you provide me with the item number of the modules and the capacity of each. I would like to know if the system would support any upgrade, as I wish?
Hello
Response to upgrade of RAM is very easy. This Satellite phone can handle with 2 GB RAM max and compatible DDR2 400/533 1 GB memory module except the number PA3411U-1M1G. You can use two modules of 1 GB and maximally improve.
On HARD drive, upgrade is not easy to provide accurate information because I know that Toshiba s specification states that the HARD drive can be upgraded up to 80 GB. Unfortunately I didn't find any public documents on the exact list of compatible drives but I think you can improve it with 120 GB of HARD drive.
Boyfriend sorry but I didn't find more information. Perhaps someone with L30 will post here on the upgrade of the HARD drive.

Upgrading RAM on the Satellite L30 - 11 d
My brother has a Satellite L30 - 11 d and he bought an extra 2 GB upgrade from 512 MB RAM.
HE sent me an email - excerpt below, but does not have regular access to the Internet and so not the time of this post.My laptop has 512 MB of ram and Toshiba etc. told me that it could be upgraded to 2 GB. I got 2 x 1 GB cards installed.
The problem is that if I remove the 512 MB card, the laptop does not see the Go cards at all, so I put the card 512 back in and it was OK, so I put a 1 GB card in and it worked OK, thinking it might be a loser card I have triedthe other cards plus the works of 512 and this.Also, if I put one of the GB cards on their own that work.
According to Toshiba, the computer can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM - so what I am doing wrong.Any ideas would be appreciated. »
Hello
I googled and found this page of specification of Satellite L30 - 11 d:
http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 128130According to this page, the satellite L30 - 11 d can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB)
You must use the RAM (533 MHz) DDR2 200pin modules.I think that the laptop doesn't recognize the 2 GB of RAM due to compatibility issues you should try the modules of RAM from another manufacturer. Maybe Kingston would be ok.

Want to upgrade RAM HDD & on Satellite P10 - 304
Help, please
I have a Satellite P10-304. There is only a tiny 256 RAM and 30 GB hard drive.
Can I put both?I was looking to upgrade to 2 GB ram at least and 120 to 160 GB of hard drive.
Looked at the pc world, I know not which is compatible with mine.Thank you
Hello
Of course you can upgrade this P10.
The RAM can be upgraded up to 2 GB and you use PC2100 DDR - RAM modules.
I think that the laptop supports the HDD IDE ATA-5 and in my opinion, you would be able to update with 100 GB or 120 GB HDD

Satellite L30 - 115 - what HARD drive is compatible?
I want to ask is a compatible HDD for my laptop (Satellite L30-115). The interface is ATA-7/ATA133 and it looks like this: http://images.trustedreviews.com/images/article/inline/5889-wd3201.jpg
I don't know if it is compatible with SATA interfaces, but it looks like SATA. Also in wikipedia ATA-7 is shown as PATA, who works with SATA I or something like that. If it works with SATA I, can I use SATA II or even SATA III and it is necessary to use jumpers to make work as SATA I
Can you please send links with compatible models of HARD drive that works for my laptop?There are second hand hard drives that are ATA - 7 but I preffer new drive HARD if it is possible. SATA II or SATA III will be better for me because they are cheaper.
Thank you.
Hey,.
The interface on the photo you have posted is SATA interface, so you need a HARD drive with SATA interface. It makes no difference if you buy a model with SATA 1 or SATA 2 interface because the connector is the same and all SATA 2 downgrade compatible SATA 1 readers.
There is also no limit capacity on SATA models, you can buy a HDD 500 GB, 640 GB or more disk space. You can take a model with a new SATA 2 interface, it works on SATA 1 interface too. :)

Satellite L30-115 - deleted TCP and FTP packets
Hi all
I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-115 and a DSL connection. I have a problem with my laptop running Win XP SP2 with AVG anti-virus.
TCP and FTP packets are systematically deleted by Firewall setting or my system. I tried these tools that rewrite the registry entries for the TCP/IP protocol in Windows XP, but nothing seems to fix. Everything that affects the TCP fails systematically:
[My browser tells me that the connection was reset during any process, AVG says automatic updates failure but 1] I always got ping www.yahoo.fr and strangest of all, Skype connects properly (likely because it uses another protocol and also because it is in the exception list from my firewall).
Here is that I only have the native Win XP firewall and not others (license AVG, I've got is only to protect web, mail and virus).Another thing is that the problem persists even when I turn off the firewall or if I play around with the settings.
Help, please.

Satellite L30-115: does not start when external keyboard and mouse are connected
My Satellite L30-115 starts when my external keyboard and mouse are connected to PS2 USB adapter.
Everything is OK, when they are not connected, and they work fine when they are connected after boot.
Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?
Hello
I don't think there is a way to solve this problem. Also, I assume it is the related issue of the BIOS. Is perhaps the time to be up-to-date and use new and compatible equipment. ;)

Satellite L30-115 returns after hibernation too early
Satellite L30-115.
The lid switch opens even slight movements (with the lid closed). What makes my book out of hibernation.Energy saver, I put to enter the Hibernate when I press the power button and do nothing when I close the lid. So I expect to do nothing when I opened the lid, too.
The laptop still exists, after hibernation.Is this a bug in the BIOS, normal behavior, is there a place to put not to resume when I open the lid? BIOS and energy savings are updated recently.
Thank you
DanWhen the lid is closed the small switch will activate and laptop knows what lid are closed. Light moves this contact will be interruption and laptop think the lid is open. Because of this, your mobile PC wakes up from hibernation mode.
A few minutes ago I tested how reacts a Satellite phone and also my new Vista preinstalled Satellite P200D preinstalled old WXP. I did the same settings that you are, and the result is the same. After the opening of the notebooks of the lid to wake up from hibernation mode.

Opportunities to upgrade HDD for Satellite L30-113
I hope someone can help me on this one. I was wondering what are the possibilities for the upgrade of the disk on a Satellite L30-113. As the largest size of support etc. Or even if it's possible (I don't know much when it comes to upgrading laptops).
If it is possible to upgrade to a larger size HARD drive what should be and what would be the process to upgrade as well as if there is a limit on the maximum size, etc.?
Thanks in advance.
Hello
Each laptop BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation and therefore, you can only use a HARD drive formats supported.
I used the L30 for a long time and to my knowledge, you could use the 40 GB, 60 GB and 80 GB hard drives for sure. Perhaps that the 100 GB HARD drive might work but I m not 100% sure and can not recommend this size of HARD drive.
However, these hard drives must be compatible:
Toshiba 40 GB - MK4032GSX
60 GB - MK6034GSX
80GB - MK8032GSX -

Someone has L30-115 pcmcia slot?
Are there different models? : /Hello
I wonder where you found this info.
I downloaded from the site of Toshiba L30 user manual and there is nothing in the PCMCIA slots!
According to this document, the PC card slot is placed on the left side, and the PC card slot can accommodate a Type II card.
Housing supports the 16-bit PC card and Cardbus PC cards.I think you have mixed with something and there is only one slot that supports different maps.

-Works fine on the external monitor (FN + F5)Already tried:

I don't have a backlight for the same exact model to display. I find order in my region.Question:
Find similar backlight (toshiba tecra 8200 14 in.) for 10 euros. Can I use in my model?
I also read that the backlight switch may be stuck. I couldn't find it on this model. Should I use a magnetic sensor?Any help is be apreciated
PS: Tried to post this message to about 50 timesPost edited by: micro_2
> I don't have a backlight for the same exact model to display. I find order in my region.
I assume you mean display
Well, you can order all the compatible parts of the ASP from Toshiba in your country.
But the new part of the display is expensive> Found similar backlight (Toshiba Tecra 8200 14 in.) for 10 euros. Can I use in my model?
Well, the L30 was equipped with 14.1 TFT WXGA display.
I think that the 14 could be too small for the L30. But this is only my assumption -

Upgrade of Satellite L30 - 115 CPU
Hello!
I want to replace my CPU, but I do not know which processors are supported. I found no information on it.
Could someone help me?Thanks in advance!
Hello
Generally, the upgrade of the CPU is not supported. This means that no one can tell if the laptop would be functions properly after the upgrade of CPU.
The point is that BIOS has not been tested in other processors.
But I think you could use another CPU, but you must choose one of the same CPU family.As far as I know that the laptop was equipped with the Intel CELERON M 380 has CPU
http://Ark.Intel.com/product.aspx?ID=27146In addition it of important what chipset would support the new processor. This means that you should check the chipset and forced to seek support on the Intel page.
