HDD and memory upgrade on Satellite P200-17C

Hi there
I own Satellite P200 17c. My current memory is DDR2 PC2-5300 2gb. I would like to upgrade it to DDR2 PC2-6400 4gb ram. Can i do that and is there going to be some improvement of the speed if I upgrade to PC2-6400 instead PC2-5300?
On my P200 17c I have 2 HDDs. 2x100gb. I would like to upgrade one of those two HD from 100gb to 320gb 5400 rpm. Can i do that? and is it going to be some difference if I upgrade with HD that has 7200 rpm?
Thank you

First of all: your machine is able to handle a maximum RAM capacity of 4GB but please be aware that you wont be able to use the full 4GB due to some chipset limitations which are explained in the following article: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB82022E0000R01.htm
Regarding the module speed: the chipset specifications are defined for PC5300, so it will not enhance your speed when installing faster modules.
If you would like to upgrade your harddisk then just do it like you want, because there shouldnt be any limitations, you can install a drive with 7200rpm together with a slower one.
The only difference will be that the faster drive will be faster. The whole system performance would only raise when youre installing your OS on the faster drive (which is recommendation from my side :) )

HDD and memory upgrade on Satellite A350

Hi All
I have a satellite a350 laptop can anyone tell me whats the biggest harddrive I can have and memory please
Thanks

Hi
The RAM upgrade depends on the available chipset.
Not quite sure about your A350-xxx model but many of the Sat A350 notebooks were quipped with an Intel GM45 Express chipset and in such case you could upgrade the memory max up to 8GB RAM
Regarding the HDD: This notebook supports SATA HDD. This mean that you are not limited to an special size.
Theoretically it could be possible to use 500GB, 750GB 2.5 SATA HDDs

Memory upgrade for Satellite L30-134

I have a Satellite L30-134 which appears to be running quite slowly - I think due to large amount of photos and itunes music.
I am wondering which is the easiest way to resolve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change the memory though) or get an external hard drive?
And if I change the memory will I lose what is already saved on the laptop?

I agree with Ganz the bigger HDD will not improve the performance but only increase the available HDD space it would helps you to store more music and pic files on the HDD ;)
The memory upgrade would also not bring an performance boost of course the performance would be a little bit better because the most stuff would be handled directly in the memory and not temporally on the HDD but generally its not really noticeable.
Anyway if you want to upgrade the memory check this:

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

Satellite P200-17C: graphics in XP seems to be running a bit sluggish

Hi all
I've just bought a Satellite P200-17c.
I've set up my dual boot with Vista and XP (that was REALLLLY hard) everything seems to be almost OK, but..... The graphics in XP seems to be running a bit sluggish, when you scroll a window in a browser it seems to 'refresh' in blocks - it's not moving right. If I go to device manager under other devices there are two things for which there is no driver install, one says: VGA controller, the other says: unknown device!
It's true that I haven't istalled the ATI drivers yet.... But that's because the only place I can find to get them for XP is from the Toshiba support area, the file is 162MB (not that big) but it is downloading at such a slow pace even though I have a fast connection, I don't even know if it will work?!
I've tried some things from the ATI site directly, althought I was trying to install the drivers for the ATI HD2400 graphics card that the machine has, on installation it said it couldn't continue as there wasn't any compatable hardware connected.....
My download from the Toshiba area has already gone wrong once, meaning I have to re-start it.
Does any one have any light they can shine on this issue. If any one has the driver downloaded already and fancies sticking on mega upload or something, that'll be fun???!!!!!
Ideas suggestion welcome!

Hi
I was very curious about driver offered on Toshiba support page. You are right about file. It is about 160 MB and I have needed 20 minutes for download but download was successfully and I do not see any problem that you can not do the same.
Extract the file and just use setup.exe to start driver installation.

HDD and RAM Upgrade Questions...

I am thinking about upgrading my HDD and memory. My computer is a Qosmio X870-BT3G23. HDD is about 1TB and also have 12GB RAM. I am not sure how to upgrade my RAM as I heard the other 2 memory slots are not user accessable. How would I go about upgrading HDD and transfer all my stuff over? I think my computer has slots for 2 HDDs, but not sure... Thoughts on both HDD and RAM upgrade appreciated
Qosmio X870-BT3G23

Skeet, here are the SPECIFICATIONS for your machine if you have not seen them. And on pages 44-53 of your User's Guide is a very thorough description of the adding memory process. As far as transferring files are concerned, at the Start screen, type Easy Transfer, hit Enter and follow instructions.
The specifications indicate you can have 16GB memory in the two accessible memory slots without concerning yourself about the 2 hidden slots. I personally can't imagine why anyone could need more than 16GB memory and 1TB HDD but, of course, that's your call.

Upgrade HDD and Memory

Hello
I recently bought an mac air 2012 and want to upgrade the internal memory HDD and simms ( from 4 to 8 gigs) is it possible and also worth it.

If you already bought it, then the RAM can't be upgraded. It can only be configured at time of purchase. The Memory is integral with the motherboard, and there are no expansion slots.
Aftermarket SSD's are available, but it is something you may want to wait upon until after the warranty expires.
Your alternatives? Sell your underconfigured device, and buy one that is configured the way you want it.

Memory upgrade on Satellite Pro L40-15d

Hi
I have Satellite Pro L40-15d with 512 memory (Samsung) but I wont upgrade to 1GB. I have Kingston ktt667d2/1g I have tray to put in to both slots but nothing work I cant switch on computer.
But when I change for old one laptop is ok. What can I do? Install special program or update BIOS or maybe the memory stick is broken.
Regards

Hi
The notebook doesnt boot after the memory upgrade due to these different issues;
- memory modules are not compatible together
- memory modules are not compatible with the notebook
- memory modules are faulty
- one of memory slots is faulty
In most case the memory module replacement helps.
One hint; did you try to switch the memory modules in the slots? Sometimes this helps.
Several weeks ago I have updated my memory and the notebook didnt boot.
I thought its a memory malfunction but after module switching the notebook booted correctly.
Good luck

Can anyone advise me as to the correct RAM type to upgrade my Satellite Pro A10. Its a standard 256mB at the minute and I'm thinking of slotting in an additional 512mB next to it - but am bemused by the array of memory types and nomenclatures - DDR - SODIMM etc !!!
Handy with the screw drivers but not so hot with the acronyms. Many thanks to you all out there who know the score!

Hi
You have several ways to find out what memory module is compatible and supported.
You can use a diagnostic too like Everest, you will check the user manual or the Toshiba website for details or you will contact the service in your country for supported modules.
I will try to answer the question: The Satellite A50 should support PC2700 DDR-RAM like these parts:
PC2700 256MB (PA3311U-1M25)
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)
Now its your choice. You can also google for the offers
By the way: Visit the Toshiba Options & accessories site. There you will find compatible parts

Memory upgrade on Satellite Pro A40

Can anyone please advise where is the best place I can get a memory upgrade for my Satellite Pro A40 laptop.
I think my machine is a PC2700 DDR. I am looking for either 512mb or 1gb.
Thanks in advance.
Christine

Hi
On the Satellite Pro A40 you will find 2 memory slots and you can upgrade the memory to max 2GB (2x1024MB)
It should be possible to use these modules:
PC2100 512MB (PA3164U-1M51)
PC2100 1GB (PA3278U-1M1G)
And
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G
I purchase the compatible parts and devices always form the Toshiba service partner in my country because so I'm 100% sure that this parts are compatible.
So I would recommend you also to buy the modules form the ASP in your country.

MacBook 7,1 HDD and RAM upgrade advice and brand recommendations

Question
I'm upgrading a MacBook 7,1 from it's original HDD and RAM and I'm wanting to get ideally 8 GB RAM (2x4GB RAM) and a 1TB@7200RPM HDD. What brands do people recommend?
Reasoning
I now need to do a lot more video editing on this MacBook (FCPX, Motion 5, Compressor 4) and don't have the money now to get a new MacBook Pro, especially considering my current MacBook has only been in use for 1.5 years.
Also, If anyone has a better suggestion than upgrading my HDD and RAM, or doesn't think these upgrades will function well with my MacBook, please tell me.
MacBook 7,1 original specs
2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
2GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Memory @ 5400 RPM
250 GB HDD

Faster RAM will have a great chance to lead to problems. If it works it will not be noticeably faster; The bus speed is still 1066. Ram being cheap I would either put in more ram and not faster ram, buy from high reputation suppliers like Crucial, OWC.
The 7200 will not lead to problems, be sure that it is compatible, the fastest way to replace if you are using (snow) leopard OS: make a clone of the existing drive to the new one, boot from it when still outside, to test; replace the internal disk with the new one, et voila...
