  • Re: Tecra 9100 - new HARD drive is not detected

    I have a Toshiba Harddisk provide a Tecra 9100. Checking the BIOS it shows "Enhanced IDE", but you are trying to boot from the disc does not work HARD. Even trying to install a new operating system present, that the HARD drive is not detected.
    From the laptop is also very long.
    Any idea?

    Your new HARD drive is larger than 120 GB? The HARD disk controller supports the 28-bit LBA and large drives as 120 GB will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    What you mean with Enhanced IDE? The BIOS recognizes the new HARD drive with model number?

  • Tecra 9100 unrecognized hard drive

    Hello
    If I replace the hard drive in my tosh bios indicates no hard disk is installed.
    The new hard drive is MK2016GAP I tried with and without the master/slave relationship.

    Clues?

    Hello

    The MK2016GAP is a 20 GB HARD drive.
    I searched the Internet for the Tecra 9100 and discovered that the phone comes with 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive.
    BIOS shouldn't t so no problem with the size of the HARD drive. The size of the HARD drive is certainly supported.

    So I think it's a problem of jumper or you did not connect the disk HARD corectly.
    I put t know how the jumper was set to your old HDD, but you should check the position of the jumper and put it also on the new HARD drive.

  • Qosmio X 300-130 - hard drive Question

    Why Toshiba has equipped this model with 2 x 320 GB 5400 RPM drives when there are 320 GB 7200 tours available disks.
    Is it a question of dissapation of heat with higher rpm records?

    Hello

    I imagine that the heat can be the reason for this. As you know heat and how cool the material is a common problem with books and I think that Toshiba has decided to use the HARD drive maybe a bit more slow, but avoid a temperature higher inside the laptop.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-1260se artist edition Entertainment Notebook PC Hard Drive Question

    Hello, I hope someone here can answer a question for me. I have a 4 year old HP Pavilion dv6-1260se artist edition Entertainment Notebook PC and the hard drive died on me. I have been trading for the replacement of the hard disk and found a 1 TB disk toshiba sata hard I like, the original drive was a 500 GB. I'm a graphic designer in order to available disk space is important in a replacement player. The page of product for my laptop specification does not say if the original hard drive was a sata drive. Did anyone here know if a 1 TB sata drive will work in my laptop? Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Your hard drive is SATA. Service and maintenance Guide lists the largest available in 500 GB hard drive. This isn't a definitive answer that your laptop can not use a 1 TB retail hard drive. However, if you use recovery disks Vista to install Windows on it, the more great concern will use a hard drive Advanced Format (AF). Most recent hard drives are AF and Vista will probably not be able to install.

  • Hard drive Question on new Y50

    Hi, I ordered a Y50 last week and I'm waiting to be shipped. I've gone through these forums a lot try to seek answers to my question.

    I intend later my SSHD to a 512 GB or 1 TB SSD 1 TB upgrade when prices are met. What I'm confused about is a recovery key and how that will work with the new HD? I read that it will not work if the partitions are changed or if you use a new HD, or if you format the old drive?

    I don't know if I want to run Windows 8.1, maybe linux, I want to expirament. I can just use Windows 8.1 anyway.

    If I ever want to sell the laptop, I want to while working where I do not change the hard drive. Is there a concise guide on how to get all backed up and is working on a new hard drive, including a recovery key?

    The first thing I want to do when I get the laptop is my backup system image, but what good is it if I plan on the HDD out of switching or the modification of partitions? I looked on these forums, and the more I read I became more confused.

    Any help would be appreciated!


  • HP laptop - 15-g227wm: Hard Drive question, in need of a solution

    First of all, I don't know if the version of Windows running was of 32-bit or 64-bit.

    The laptop in question is my mother and randomly, he started to become unresponsive in the middle of the night.  She had not dropped it and only uses the laptop to surf the internet and play some Facebook games.

    I went to the start menu and asked the laptop to run diagnostic systems.  In two minutes, he told me that the disk check hard short DST was not, by giving the code 9SNJ3G-7MP84W-XD7WL1 - T 60, 703.

    As it is a hard drive problem, I hope that, at the very least, it will take replace the hard drive, if not buy another laptop.

    The problem is the following; the laptop was purchased at a Wal-Mart.  It was the display model they had, as it was the last one in stock, and Wal-Mart could not locate the box for the laptop at the time of purchase.  We have no user manual and no CD to reinstall Windows (the laptop had 8.1 the purchase, and we took advantage of the free for 10 update when it was available).

    Please let us know our best options.  Thank you for your time.

    Hello:

    While I can't tell you precisely what that code means, yes the the bottom line is the hard drive has suffered an accident and needs to be replaced.

    Initially, the PC came with 64-bit W8.1.  HP does not support this model for 32-bit operating systems.

    Here is the service manual for this model.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04886216

    Removing and replacing the drive hard in this model is a daunting task, but if you are up to it, see Chapter 6 for R & R procedures.

    If the laptop is still under warranty, you can get HP to replace the drive under warranty.

    If this isn't the case, you're on your own.

    You can order W8.1 recovery media for the laptop computer from the link below, or clean reinstall 10 64-bit windows on the new drive from the link below it (media creation tool).  You can clean install W10 for free, without a product key, given that the laptop was already legally upgraded to W10.

  • Replacement HARD drive questions

    So to make a long story short the Thinkvantage Toolbox thing reported a bad hard drive for about a month now.

    I get no other indicators of failure of emminet as bad sectors but didn't want to push the thing as its under warranty so I am in touch with the contact centre yesterday and had a replacement delivered today drive, and I live in the Bush so kuddos it.

    However, I have this HARD drive with nothing but lables to ship the old man back to "avoid being charged for the new part.

    If at this point, I have two main concerns.

    I understand the work of monkey of replacing the drive on this computer, but am I to assume that the new disc has a preloaded OS or something or there at - it a procedure that I could follow, perhaps?

    I've done some general poking around on the net and you have not found anything so far so I'll try here.

    My second consideration relates to return a drive that I lived with for more than six months and shows no other problems except for a flag of Thinkvantage.

    I understand that there is a kind of extended warranty "servece" that allows the physical conservation of the old drive and I'm not trying to be a jerk on everything that I understand the recycling of old electronic devices and so forth and so but it seems silly just send my old data like this on a vague threat of a charge if I do not return the part.

    I am happy to return the thing, but if I am not satisfied that I was able to erase the disc it will come back with a few nails through it and etc.

    Is that going to undergo this 'charge', they mention?

    If the old drive was more like a bad drive I would not also be concerned about data cleaning, but I'm not tickled on the idea of sending the thing somewhere with more than half a year of various personal information on this subject in its current state.

    How they even think that they would be "charge" is another question altogether, but I find rather reasonable for my worries appealed, if one is available to force the issue unnecessarily.

    Thank you.

    Well, got some information by e-mail, Lenovo, this morning.

    Fitness beat email out here to the boonies in less than 24 hours Friday.

    UPS has been everywhere this one not?

    The confusing side kuddos for the speed again and I noticed that the replacement drive is more than 50 concerts more so than the old car so more warm and fuzzies of my dissertation.

    My T61p 6459-CTO went black screen. 1 long beep - 2 short beeps, I guess that the MOBO issue problems with Nvidia Chipset on that I read.

    So I wonder if I just take my hard drive out and put in it an operable T61p to close specifications would be that boot up and work like my old machine? Or I am a joke?

    Welcome to the forum!

    You may need to day of a couple of drivers, but any T61/p or R61 will work fine as the drive.

    Good luck.

  • Replacing HARD drive questions

    HP DV6-1355DX

    Windows 7

    OEM HARD drive is a WD 5000BEVT p/n: 499040-002

    Other posts in this forum, I'm certain that my laptop HARD drive has failed.  I found multiple suppliers for the exact same HDD, but I know that the technology has changed since this particular laptop was bought there are 3 1/2 years.  That being said, I really have no idea on HARD drive except for their purpose.  So my question is can I replace/upgrade HARD drive with a different manufacturer/model?  If Yes, what manufacturer and model do you recommend, and other that physically remove/replace, what would I do for install (software) to make this new feature of HARD drive properly in the laptop?  I have a system recovery disk.

    Thanks in advance to anyone and everyone who can offer sound advice and will take the time to help me.

    No, you don't have to worry about this. Version BPVT supports the Advanced Format Technology that should be more reliable than technology in the BEVT discs...

  • XPS 8700 2nd hard drive Bay access

    I want to install an SSD in my Dell XPS 8700 system. Once I opened the side panel, I noticed there was a Bay that said second hard drive. Exactly how you can access this Bay? You cannot mount the drive, sliding to the rear, because the power supply works in the way. Then of course, she must cross the front. You physically remove the front panel of the computer? I hate doing this, because something always breaks i.e. clips, some son gets snatch etc. I guess I could remove the power temporarily.

    Thank you

  • XPS L501X failed HARD drive - need copy of Win 7 for new installation

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix the laptop for my nephew who is out of warranty.  I replaced the HARD drive.  The original one would not load the OS and was identified by an on-board diagnostics as the defective HARD drive.  I tried to get a copy of Win 7, but because it's out of warranty assistance automated on the Dell Web site I cannot download a Windows 7 image.  All useful suggestions please.

    Hey Rishi

    Before you receive your answer, I came across an answer to someone who has encountered a similar problem.  The advice they received were trying to restore the default settings in the BIOS.  I did and it allowed me to access the HARD disk again.  At the time where I got the recovery for my own laptop (a Dell Inspiron) disc, in DVD of XPS reader.  This enabled me to reload Windows 7 on the laptop XPS, probably only because the HARD drive is no longer was considered defective by the BIOS and the relevant files / drivers to access.

    As a precaution, I used the installation backup Dell to save different data files before migrating to the HARD drive in the set of an SSD, I was installing.  Unfortunately, the backup did not work as I hope and proved to be useless to retrieve the data as different files in the backup lacked.  I assume that this is because the HARD drive is faulty (even though I have not checked since I was the system working again, after spending more time than expected as the whole.)  I used the information provided to prepare a Win7 disc should be necessary in the future, thank you.

  • Sending for repair HARD drive question

    7690 AMD GPU in my HP Envy 17-3000 fried, and I'll send for repair in a few days.

    My question, will wipe they my secondary hard drive? I know they're going to wipe my primary SSD 128 GB drive, but what my secondary drive?

    All program files and what are not the main boot disk and all my music/photos etc are on the secondary drive.

    If so, I wiped more than 500 GB of files that I would like to keep, mainly the music, do I remove the hard drive and keep it so it does not keep? Or just leave it empty my warranty?

    Also, what is the usual repair made on a fried GPU?

    Hard drives are also on the list of devices customer replaceable in the guides maintenance & Service for all but the Ultrabook and tablet laptops.

    If a HARD disk fails under warranty, HP can you send one for you to replace yourself. It does not void the warranty.
