• Upgrading RAM in Satellite L30-105

  Hello

  I need to update my RAM that Vista is slow _painfully_ in standard. My machine is supposed to have 1 GB of RAM but Windows System info and my BIOS show 894MB?
  This does not coincide with the 2 x 512 listed as my hardware... I'm confused!

  Can you recommend a 2 GB upgrade provider that supports DDR2 (533 mhz)? Are there any pitfalls I should be aware of before upgrading the RAM for a L30-105?

  Thank you

  Mark

  Please, do not waste the time of the users of the forum, just take a look at the last 10-15 pages of the forum "Satellite L Series. Just check the subjects on the L30 series, and I'm sure that you find the answers. There are many topics on these problems, and it takes only 5-10 minutes to find the answers. I recommend the use of the advanced Forum search option. Thank you.

• Re: Can I upgrade RAM on Satellite L30-134?

  Hello!

  My laptop is Satellite L30-134 (PSL33E-00E00WRU).

  I want to use RAM DDR2 800 Mhz 2 x 1 Gb in there. Is this possible?

  On the motherboard FSB speed is 533 MHz so I advise you to use compatible RAM modules.
  I don't know why you want to use these Rams from 800 MHz. For more performance or what?

• Upgrade of RAM for Satellite L30

  I m hard to find part of the ram that I can use with my computer. I put t really know how to move in the Toshiba site! My laptop is: Toshiba Satellite L30-10 x.
  I would like a 1 GB module to make the maximum of available Assembly 2 GB. He must be released in the United Kingdom. Thank you.

  You can use DDR2 400/533 module of RAM 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G). Use this part number of command. Use in Google, you can find an online store where you can order.

  An alternative to this is to visit the UK Kingston and order the compatible RAM it.

• For the Archives: The upgrade of the Satellite L30-134

  I'm one of those old cell phones off a friend who had retired as being obsolete.

  However with a little time and money, it is possible to upgrade to a very usable machine.

  Not a power by any stretch but perfectly adequate for browsing the internet and watching videos (about 720 p watchable) standard definition etc.

  So as the search of these forums for more information for this project, I found a lot of conflicting advice, and some of my questions were not answered at all. I hope by documenting my experiences here I can help someone in the same position in the future.

  * Model *.

  This machine is the Toshiba Satellite L30-134, part number: PSL33E-00E013G3. It's probably very similar, but not necessarily the same as the other models L30. No invert them.

  * Original configuration *.

  Processor - Intel Celeron m 410 (Cache of 1 MB, 1.46 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, Socket M). It is a simple version of the Core Duo (Yonah core) processor core. It shares nothing in common and is not swapable with the previous generation Pentium M or processors Celeron Mr. He is also incompatible with the next generation of Core 2 Duo/Solo and Pentium and Celeron processors derived from these.

  Memory - A single 512MB SODIMM PC2 - 4200 (DDR2-533 MHz). This differs from the previous generation of DDR and the next generation of DDR3. The controller memory only supports single channel mode. There is no loss that the FSB of the processor is not fast enough to take advantage of the dual channel anyway.

  * BIOS *.

  My laptop came with very old version 1.3. Toshiba provides the latest version (3.10) for download. This is reported to be buggy and mess with the profiles of fan so I decided to leave it alone. I can confirm that my updates work without updating the BIOS.

  * Updates *.

  Processor - I swapped the Celeron for a Core Duo T2350 (1.87 GHz). Everything I read that all the Yonah core Core Duo/solo, Pentium and Celeron with a FSB of 533 are compatible. The FSB 667 models are not.

  The Core Duo T2450 at 2 GHz is the highest performing compatible processor but double the price on eBay. I paid just £12 (used) for the T2350 so there is really no reason to go down now, all of these parts are obsolete.

  RAM - there are 2 slots on this machine. Toshiba State a maximum of 2 GB, 1 GB in each slot. Unfortunately, the memory controller is very picky and survey of the weird errors, unless you get just the right ones.

  There is not enough information to understand it so for me it was a process of trial and error. Fortunately, I found an online retailer that guaranteed compatibility in 100% and returned by mail for free.

  The second pair of Poles worked well.

  Thanks for sharing!

• Upgrade CPU on Satellite L30-101

  Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101. I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) successfully, but I find it incredibly difficult to get information on the replacement of the processor.

  The laptop has the latest version of the BIOS on it (3.10 - WIN - 02/19/08), but trying to find information on whats inside I'm hitting brick walls. First of all the site > http://www.toshiba-tro.de/biosinfo/< doesn't="" have="" my="" laptop="" on="" it,="">
  Product type: notebook
  Family: Satellite
  Product series: Satellite L series
  Model:? unknown
  Short model No.:? unknown

  I hope I could paste in but with the ATI chipset Intel Duo, I'm sure that it won't work but once again without knowing what in the BIOS, compatible... I got lost. Single processor I can find who can work, same package, FSB, socket is an Intel Core Solo T1350 of processor which begins at 1.86 GHz, not a huge difference, and I don't know that it cannot be the only option of replacement.

  Could someone and please help me to get the hands on info from BIOS and compatible processors for my laptop. The current Intel Celeron M Processor 410 deporting the 1.46 GHz is not good enough for Vista (cert on laptop) and basic multi-task. His way of late too even after a good tune up, ram, HD 7200 rpm upgrade. I need an upgrade of the processor, but as mentioned it is incredibly difficult to get the information which would be compatible.

  Sincerely,

  Gourcuff

  Hello

  In my opinion, your attempt to replace the CPU is false. Why? Satellite L30 is not designed to offer performance and it is designed for everyday use. Best evidence was the price. It wasn't so expensive.

  Can you please tell us why do you have new CPU? Do you use special software?

  Return to the replacement of the CPU. As you probably know laptops have limited upgrade options and it is related to the RAM and disk HARD upgrade. It's definitely not for CPU upgrade and it is not supported. Specific design, especially of the cooling system is designed for certain CPU.
  Because of this, you will not be able to find relevant info on replacement of the CPU.

  Check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  Hello world

  I want to ask about upgrading RAM for laptops,

  I have the Toshiba Satellite L755 I want to change my 6 GB to 8 GB but I can't find as much RAM in a red circle in the picture but another number in yellow circle is same numbers.

  My question is it ok to change it, because I can't get RAM even with the exact numbers in red or yellow circle?
  [http://s10.postimg.org/qqrh22721/20120910_175838.jpg]

• 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

• Upgrading RAM on Satellite L555-10R

  Hello

  I have a satellite L555-10R, Win 7 64 bit, main Board TOSHIBA KTWAA Intel GM45/GM47 chipset, 1.9 BIOS, CPU Intel COre 2 duo P7450;

  I want to upgrade ram 2x2gb (SAMSUNG) to 2 x 4 GB (CORSAIR). Only the ram that I put in the location #1 is recognized as a result system starts and detects 6 GB of RAM. When I put the RAM 2nd Slot #2, the PC does not start. It seems that it does not detects hard (the LED on the front of the PC don't not ligth during startup). I can't go into the BIOS (even if I press the F2 key), black screen, all I can do is power off.

  I'd appreciate your help, if you have an idea.
  Thank you

  Hello

  First some general information on your machine:
  Your laptop can be upgraded to the top 8 GB and max upgrade, you can use both modules of memory of 4 GB.
  Compatible 4 for GB DDR3 - 1066 MHz apart number PA3677U-1M4G. Module of memory with this part number is tested and 100% compatible with your device.

  If you check this forum you will find number of threads as your one, where people try to level of RAM using Rams Corsair and spoke of the same problems. Obviously the reason for non-working machine is compatibility issue with these RAM modules.

  The 'value' Modules of RAM use many markets good chips using several banks/channels, which can cause problems of compatibility with some chipsets/CPUS.

  I highly recommend to use high quality and 100% compatible modules of RAM from Toshiba or Kingston.

• Upgrade memory on Satellite L30

  I have a Satellite L30 - 11 d and I am wanting to update the modules of memory in it, I found it;

  Part number: PA3411S-2M1G
  1024 MB (1 GB) memory PC2 - 4300 DDR2 (533 MHz)

  and it will work, but im not sure - you can have more than one connected to my laptop?

  Help, please!

  Of course, you can do more then a memory module. On your laptop satellite, there are two slots available, and you can put two memory modules. Your laptop can handle with 2 GB RAM max.

  According to the specifications of the laptop, you should have now 512 MB of RAM. New 1 GB module set up where is now placed module of 512 MB and put old in empty slot.

  If you need further assistance please write again.

• Upgrade memory for Satellite L30-134

  I have a Satellite L30-134, which seems to work pretty slowly - I think that due to the large amount of photos and music from itunes.

  I wonder which is the best way to solve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change memory well) or get an external hard drive?
  And if I change the memory I'll lose what is already saved on the laptop?

  I agree with Ganz most HARD drive will not improve performance but increase the disk space available HARD, it would be you can store more music and picture on HARD drive ;) files

  Upgrade memory also would not provide a performance gain of course performance could be a little better because most of the things would be handled directly in memory and not in time on the HARD drive, but generally it s not really noticeable.

  In any case if you want to improve memory, check this:

  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=25737&ft=m&St=3

  You must use DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM

  I want to update 8 GB 1333
  This module it supported?
  dose the laptop has 2 springers to upgrade ram or more?

  and one more thing, it is I can't find any data on this module in this site
  When I try to auto detect the module of your software in my laptop it does not find

  Hello

  You can update the RAM up to 8 GB, but as much as I know bus Frontal (FSB) is limited to 1066 Mhz

  Even if you want to use the 1333 Mhz modules, the FSB would be clock speed to the 1066 Mhz is not worth to use 1333 Mhz as this seed would not be used.

• Upgrading processor on Satellite L30

  Can I replace my Intel celeron with a complete Intel pentium processor for my laptop Satellite L30-105? As it is so slow I got it since February 2007, more than half of my HDD disappeared too?

  You can use CPU Pentium M, the difference between Celeron M and Pentium M is the size of the cache and Celeron M uses SpeedStep technology, but the FSB and the socket are the same.
