• Tecra R840-16J - FN keys no function

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Tecra R840-16J. Sometimes, I use the FN keys (the most I use is F6 and F7 for brightness) sometimes I can't! They are disabled singles! And if I press on the window of "windows Mobility Center" ECO button will be displayed and the brightness will be there if the F6/F7 keys are still active and will not be there if the keys are not active more!

  This laptop is driving me crazy! I have Toshiba laptops from the end of 1997 (Ant) working again... with win98 a MX30 which is perfect despite almost 8 years of use intensive Ant sub zero temperatures (I do astrophotography...) but this one which I thought it would be a professional is a great diapointment... !

  Thanks for any help,
  Paulo

  Hello Paulo

  I put t really know what the problem is here and why do you have this problem, but without cleaning preinstalled OS (factory settings) something like that shouldn't happen.

  What you can try is to remove preinstalled Toshiba value added package, restart the system and install the latest version of the Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  Please post comments.

• Upgrade SSD for Dell XPS 15 9550

  Hello

  I have Dell XPS 9550 with configuration 32 GB SSD + 500 GB HARD disk. I want to upgrade SSD for more space avaliablity.

  But I don't know what type of SSD, I'll need to buy. Also, I read XPS 15 to repair. There are two chapter for the removal and replacement of the SSD in the maintenance manual. First chapter of half-length SSD, second chapter SSD full length.

  What type of SSD is mounted in my laptop? Half or full length?

  How can I identify necessary SSD for me in stores (dimensions, label, etc.)?

  What interface for SSD do I need?  PCIE or SATA?

  What is the map? M2.2280 or PCI-E AIC (-expansion card)?

  Thanks in advance!

  These are all numbers of Dell and descriptions.

  The system uses a PCIe (or is if you want a faster player), 2280 m2 or small size.  UNLESS you buy directly from Dell, it is best NOT to buy versions OEM of SSD (Samsung end pieces in a '1' vs '0' for details).

  OEM spare parts are usually not compatible to end-users by the manufacturer.

  Because you will probably install the operating system for the new SSD, don't forget to make a recovery media set, you need to load the operating system on the larger capacity disk - what you have now is just a cache for the main hard drive.

• Tecra R840 - 16J SATA III is capable of?

  Hello

  Just to ask questions about SATA compatibility! My R840-16J SATA III is capable of?

  Thank you
  Paulo

  Hello

  SATA-III was introduced in Sandy Bridge chipset (Intel with the 2nd generation 6 series I have Core CPU).
  The laptop seems to be equipped with the Mobile Chipset Intel QM67.
  These chipset supports SATA 6 Gbit/s for 2 Ports and 3 Gbps to 4 Ports.

  But the SATA controller is also compatible to the bottom so that you could use disk SATA III SSD or HDD in SATA II controller too.

• Tecra R840-16J - Driver 8 3 Windows

  Hello
  I use Windows 8 Enterprise in a Tecra R840.
  I have not had any problems with the installation. All but three devices installed correctly.
  I list below those that have not been installed:
  -BT
  -3G Modem
  -Fingerprint sensor

  BT and fingerprint sensor were installed with Windows 7 drivers, and work very well.
  The 3G modem is installed correctly, but the connection is detected as a LAN no dial-up connection. So I can't connect, and he repeats to me plug in a cable.

  Is there anyone who has had the same problem?
  This laptop will be supported for Windows 8?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  I think you have to wait to win 8 drivers.
  I put t see another option for you yet

• Upgrade SSD for Macbook Pro?

  I have a Macbook Pro (early 2011) and I would like my mac by installing a SSD 15'. He got a 2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor. My laptop started to slow down a lot and it lags when I use photoshop or when I'm editing videos, so I thought I should spend my hard drive for an SSD. But I don't really know what SSD to buy it. My friend recommended the Kingston SSD UV400, but I read that some people have complications after installing the SSD on their Macs. I really don't know much about these things, I'm looking for insight. Someone at - it recommendations for SSDS, I should get? I'm looking at a minimum of 480 GB for storage and, ideally, something lasting!

  Thank you very much!

  Currently, the best options are the OCZ ARC-100 series, the 850 series of Samsung (good price on Amazon) and 6G OWCseries. OWC also has tool boxes if you need it and installation tutorials. If you want to keep the HARD drive then you buy one of their media DataDoubler to put the old HDD in the space occupied by the optical drive. It can even include an enclosure for the optical drive.

  How to use an SSD with your HARD drive If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do. After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume. Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder. Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content. Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it. [Permission to use any part of the foregoing has been granted by khati, exclusively, to theratter.]

• Upgrade SSD for Satellite Pro A120

  Hello
  I have a satellite pro A120, which feels a little tired. I did research SSD upgrades to replace the HARD drive, but I don't know if I can update or not. I would really appreciate any advice or information you can give me.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can upgrade the laptop with an SSD. You need a disc SSD SATA 2.5 as the A120 supports the SATA controller.
  Not quite sure about the SSD size but I guess a 250 GB should be recognized correctly.

• Upgrade SSD for Portege Z930

  Hello

  Any who tried to Z930 SSD update?
  You are looking for information, they seem to use interface mSATA - mini PCI-E as conectors.

  No specific information on the drive inside?

  I intend to bring this beauty on the machine:
  http://www.NotebookReview.com/default.asp?NewsID=6509

  Thank you

  The mSATA connector resembles the miniPCI connector, but they are totally different.
  So, your only solution is to replace the HARD drive with a 2.5 "SATA SSD.

• Tecra R840-16J - reboot with the fan at full power and no activity

  Hello

  Everyone has found this behavior too?

  After reboot (this happened a few times... with the drive hard and today with the ssd if it's not their fault) the windows or toshiba screen is displayed only a black screen, no disk activity, and the fan works like crazy! I have it stop after 1-2 minutes because nothing is happening!

  See you soon,.
  Paulo

  In my opinion, this can happen without any reason.
  Have you done all that can be responsible for this? Update the BIOS maybe?

• Upgrade SSD for Pavilion 15-n097 (F4T60EA #ABU)

  I have a newly purchased 15-n097 Pavilion and an M500 Crucial 480 GB SSD, I would like to install.

  Can someone direct me to the proper maintenance and manual advice on any bios updates that may be required please?

  I understand that the HARD drive on this machine is a bit of a pig to get to but as long as I have clone HARD drive (I have Acronis True Image) and are not reluctant to do open heart surgery on a new laptop (OB) then I'm good to go...?

  Well, here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  Page 65. Get the means of hard disk, remove the top cover. Yes use Acronis and disk clone with proportional resizing with an external SATA USB adapter then swap the SSD to the original hard disk, and you'll be good to go. You must not touch the BIOS or really to make changes to the operating system. Windows 8 is quite good at recognizing the SSD and established itself in order to optimize their. Don't resist it.

• Tecra R840 - which partitions can I delete?

  Hello

  I installed a Plextor M5P 512 GB ssd in my Tecra R840-16J! I'm very happy with it :-)
  Restore laptop to factory state using the recovery DVDs I created before! Now, I have 2 copies and a 16 GB USBFlash with an extra copy! So I can restore to factory State whenever I want!

  But I would like to delete the allocated partitions to this!
  In my SSD, I have 3 partitions made after recovery (please to image): http://imageshack.us/a/img827/4873/34012663.jpg

  Who then can I remove?

  Thank you very much
  Paulo

  First (1.4 GB) partition is created automatically by Windows 7 and there are some files used by Win 7 in case you need fix the system or set system time back at the beginning.
  The second partition C is common system partition containing the Win 7 OS.
  The last partition is the recovery partition that contains the files to recover.
  Recovery files are required to create a recovery disk. In addition the recovery partition allows to recover the laptop without the use of the recovery disk (HARD disk recovery option)

  I do not recommend to remove or change any partition UNTIL you not create the recovery disk.
  Create the recovery disk and then you could change the partitions of HARD drive theoretically you can delete the last partition of HARD drive recovery if you have already created the recovery disc.

• Tecra R840 - need help for installing the SSD

  Hello

  Sorry, again, but I really need help with that?
  My new ssd (arriving in a few days) is a Plextor M5P which is 7 mm thick! My Tecra R840-16J have a thickness 9.5 mm HDD and what I've seen is no caddy!
  I would be grateful all the tricks for installing the ssd drive in my Tecra!

  Thanks for your time,

  Paulo

  Hello Paulo

  As far as I know that some models are available with drive HARD and some with SSD these models with SSD have small SSD support. SSD is fixed by 4 screws in this medium.

  I put t really know how to help you now. Maybe you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. I think they can check the part number of this door - or maybe order one for you.

• Tecra R840 - energy SSD after closing

  Hello

  Could someone tell me what than a ssd power consumption when the computer is turned off?

  I have a laptop Toshiba Tecra R840-16J (bougth 6 months ago) with a sweet Plextor M5Pro 512 GB ssd intalled. Yestarday, after a charge of 100%, I liquidated the laptop and today (after 4 pm) I turn it on! The battery was at 93%. Is this normal? What could be the cause of this decline of 7%?
  I use a bluetooth mouse but I thing that when I stop the laptop everything must be switched off!

  Kind regards
  Paulo

  Hello

  Some options such as wake on LAN or wake on keyboard drain on the battery even if the laptop is turned OFF.
  To avoid this, you need to turn off these options in the BIOS.

  Note: Don't forget save changes when settings have been changed.
