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.

  • Prerequisites for the replacement of Windows XP for Satellite Pro A120-107

    I don't know that it will have been asked before, however...

    I received a Satellite Pro A120-107 XP. Because XP is not supported, I would like to upgrade to Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. Who should I go for?

    I think I need to improve my memory (currently 512 MB) at least 1 GB. Or should I go to 2 GB. Which would be better?

    And I need a BIOS upgrade? He is currently using vn 1.50 08/24/2006. If I do, what version?

    In your case, I'll try to install Win 7 on this good old classic.

    8.1 Win is the latest system from Microsoft but I'm afraid, you will have some problems with drivers m.

    Win 7 would be the best choice in this case

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro A120-166

    Hi guys,.

    I m new on this forum and looking for a bit of technical advice. I'm looking to upgrade the memory in my Satellite Pro A120-166 to the threshold of 4 GB complete as described in the manual.

    How to choose what memory to buy? Is the speed of the memory must match the FSB on the processor or what?

    The online manual lists at 533 MHz FSB, but if I go into the performance of the system on my laptop, it says that it's an Intel (r) [email protected], 800 MHz, 256 MB RAM. This means that my FSB is 800 MHz?

    The online manual says that my phone comes with 256 MB of ram DDR2 (533 MHz), so I'm a little lost as to what side MHz memory to buy now.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    You are right about maximum RAM. You can improve it up to 4 GB.
    Toshiba recommends for compatible use PA3513U-1M2G (DDR2-667 2 GB Memory Kit).

    You can also use the module of Kingston. Visit their page, and you will find a list of the compatible modules.
    Please don't be confused about MHz. You can use the module with 667 MHz.

    First of all, you need the correct LAN driver.
    In order to download the LAN driver please visit the Toshiba driver page and choose your model of laptop.

    Once the LAN driver has been downloaded, you will need to decompress.
    Then you will need to access the Device Manager, choose the controller Ethernet (network cards) and must point to the place where the LAN driver was decompressed.

    Then finish the installation procedure.

  • Need drivers for Satellite Pro A120

    Hello

    I got my sisters laptop (Satellite PRO A120 model PSAC1E) and because it was full of girly garbage I ve put the xp pro disc to and start again.
    Now, the problem is that there are a lot of exclamation points in my device manager. I guess the disc that came with the laptop would have sorted it, but it disappeared.
    Rather than going through downloads driver one at a time and hoping that I get what I want (some seem not to be there anyway), is there a place I can download the boot disk arrangement... the Device Manager indicates that these don t have drivers...

    Ethernet controller
    bus modem device high definition audio
    network controller
    USB controller
    unknown device
    video controller
    video controller (vga compatible)

    I'm on another pc at the moment and can download on a disc, and then put it in the laptop.
    Any help would be greatly received

    Thanks in advance
    ADE

    You can order a new disc of recovery at an authorized service provider if have lost the recovery disk that came with the noteboook.
    Just ask the registered maintainer the closest that you can find on the Toshiba site and talk with them. I think that people will try to help you. ;)

    Of course, you can install Windows XP on the laptop without recovery disk Toshiba, but it takes more time than the recovery disk. You need to download and install each driver and tool that you can find on the Toshiba site.

    In your case I print the suggested installation instructions Feliks document. Then you can walk through each driver or tool that you have already installed and you can t forget something.

    Good luck and if you have any other questions feel free! :)

  • Upgrade SSD on Satellite Pro U200

    Hello!

    I have a laptop (Satellite Pro U200-PLUA1E-00X007HU of the v3.70 win7 32-bit bios), I want to upgrade with a series of Samsung 830 64 GB SSD. I read that the SSD need AHCI mode. My laptop supports AHCI mode? What can I change in the bios before installing the new storage?

    Thanks for the help!

    Robert

    Hello

    I see you're confused
    First, he must know that the laptop supports the SATA controller.
    This means that you must use hard drives SATA or SATA SSD.

    Second: AHCI means SATA some BIOS supports only a SATA mode, and you can switch between compatible (IDE) mode and AHCI (SATA) mode.

    If this switch is not available in the BIOS mode is always set to AHCI.

    However, to SSD drive question:
    I put t really no problem using an SSD.
    It must function as the SATA controller support

  • Upgrade memory for Satellite Pro L20

    I use a satellite L20 pro - PSL25E. That this PSL25E means in terms of satellite pro L20 - 102 until xxx. On the support site to keep just the numbers but not this alphanumeric expression. I need this in order to select the upgrade module suitable.
    If this can be answered, could someone tell me which module to upgrade should I choose in addition to the existing 512 MB?
    Thanks in advance

    It of nice that you have found the laptop model after your own investigation.
    However, in my opinion the portable Satellite Pro L20 all support the same kind of memory, if it s L20-259 Pro or Pro L20-174

    The units are supported on these modules:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
