Maximum HDD capacity for HP G7035EA

I wish to replace a faulty HDD in a HP G7035EA laptop. What is the maximum capacity the BIOS will permit me to use ?

It is a SATA drive so there is not a BIOS limitation. Make sure you have ahci or "native SATA" enabled in the BIOS (if that option is even there). I know they now make at least a 640 gig standard 9.5 mm thick 2.5 inch wide laptop hard drive and you can definitely use one of those.

Maximum HDD capacity for Core Duo MacBook?

With both OS X and Windows installed, I'm running out of space with the 80GB HDD my Core Duo (not Core 2) MB came with and I'd like to replace the original drive with the 200GB drive that the new MacBook Core 2 Duo can be ordered configured with. But I was told by a person at the local (non-Apple) Mac store that the Core Duo MB, unlike the Core 2 Duo MB, has a storage limit of "120 or 160 GB, I think".
This does not make sense to me. One would think that the addressable storage limit is a function of the OS, the CPU, and the bus width, not affected by a relatively minor (?) difference in CPU details. He acknowledged that although the physical form factor of the 200GB drive is the same as that of the 80GB (after first thinking that the phrase "physical form factor" meant a functional limit, thus calling his expertise into serious question), there is some sort of functional limit. He cited the example of the G4 desktop, which can hold 2TB of storage as 4x500GB HDDs, but that if equipped with 4x750GB drives, still recognizes only 2TB. I think this limit is a result of the basic architecture of the CPU and buses. To further muddy the waters, he said there's a limit on the size of the internal HDD even though a much bigger outboard HDD can be recognized "because the internal drive is wired right into the computer". This sounds really bogus to me, but I'm not quite confident enough that I'm ready to order that 200GB internal SATA HDD from Other World.
Can I go ahead and order the 200GB and know the whole thing will be recognized?

According to the specs - the 200G should work. Like First Magnus said - 200G drives are fairly new - heck, 120G SATA drives are fairly new for laptops. Look around - you should find something. Newegg has them one (Toshiba) for $259.00. With them being new, they'll be tougher to find, so the net is probably you're best choice right now. I know the local stores around here don't carry them yet. Best of luck...

Is there a maximum RAM capacity for a Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2009?

My questions is essentially, is there a maximum RAM capacity for a Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2009? I'm aware there are two RAM slots in my machine, but in past experiences with other laptops/desktop computers (not Apple) there was a default maximum which couldn't be overidden despite how much RAM was inserted.

You can upgrade up to 8GB using 2 x 4GB 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 modules. That's the maximum (unlike 2011 and later models which Apple tells you can only hold 8GB but can actually run 16GB).
If you do order RAM, order from a Mac memory specialist - Crucial, OWC, Corsair, etc.
Good luck,

Maximum hdd size for T60

I have a T60 type:8744-5BU. I have read on Levono that 160gb is the largest hdd that is compatible with this unit.
Will any 2.5" ide drive work? And what is the SATA that is in the device manager. Will this system use a SATA drive also? I have down loaded and ran files to enable the sata.
Solved!

Welcome to the Forum!
What you read on the Forum was probably a discussion about T43 or T23 maximum hard drive capacity- perhaps this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Legacy-ThinkPads-Z60-61-G40-41-A/Hard-Drive-Capacity-for-T23/m-p/1021013.... Those models utilize PATA or IDE (older technology) hard drives, which capped out at about 320GB.
Your T60 takes 2.5" 9.5mm SATA hard drives, not PATA hard drives. SATA hard drives are available in capacities much larger than 160GB. They have gone pretty rapidly from 160GB---> 250GB--->320GB--->500GB---> 750GB and are currently available in 1TB (terabyte) capacity. No one seems to have broken the 1TB barrier yet, but who knows what tomorrow holds.
As for drivers, yes the Intel Matrix Storage Manager Drivers must be installed to enable AHCI (SATA mode) in BIOS versus IDE (compatibility mode). This will allow your laptop to take full advantage of SATA technology and (theoretically) improve drive performance. However, there will be no real noticeable or measurable difference in real world use, especially on a T60, whether operating in AHCI or Compatibility mode. There are lots of discussions you can read up on concerning "AHCI SATA" if you plug such words into the <Search> bar above.
Edit: You received an excellent response to your question above just as I was typing. Now you have two answers to your question.
Have a great day. (I do not work for Lenovo)

More HDD Capacity for UCS C240

Dear All, I would like to see your advice
The UCS C240 I configure in CCW contain 24 Drive backplane,
my requirement will be 3 unit of 500G HDD (Raid 5) + 21 Unit of 1TB (RAID 5) = Total already 24 drive.
Since UCS C240 do not have more then 1TB SATA drive to choose in CCW, I am also unable to located any SFF Drive for 2TB or more.
In my situation, what if I would like to expand my disk drive capacity in the future?
(Actually I prefer to place 21 Unit of 2TB of more instead of 1TB, but the maximum capacity I can choose only 1TB)
Hope to have your advice, thanks

Hi Calvin ,
According the specification for a UCS C240 SFF the maximum capacity for a hard drive is 1 TB.
Actually there is no hard drive with a higher storage capacity than that on that UCS model.
Please check in here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/ps10265/ps10493/C240M3_SFF_SpecSheet.pdf
There is another model of the UCS C240 (High Density) which support hard drives for 3 TB:

What is the maximum HDD size for Pavilion DV7-3105ea and can I add a 2nd HDD.

Hi,
Please could someone advise me as to the maximum HDD size that can be installed in a Pavilion DV7-3105ea.
Additionally is it possible to add a second HDD.
Thanks and kind regards,
jB

There is no theoretical limit the only limit is what is sold on the market. Any correctly sized SATA laptop drive will work. They do now make 1TB drives that will fit and yes there is a secondary hard drive bay so theoretically you could have 2TB of storage. You are going to need 1 or 2 drives like this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152291
The drive has to be 9.5 mm in height some 1TB laptop drives are too thick.
You also likely need a second hard drive caddy/connector like this:
http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=222&zenid=2a83d0d222d80c6...
And here is a link to the Manual showing how to get to the hard drive bay:
Drive Manual
Check your system to see if a secondary drive caddy/connector is there but it likely is not and you need the part linked above. Good luck.

Maximum hdd size for MacBook Pro 17" (late 2006)

I have macbook pro and looking to upgrade the base HDD of 160GB to maximum supported. I bought this in march 2007, so should be late 2006 model.
Can someone share the knowledge, if they had upgraded to the bigger HDD? Also what capacity we can go as max?
Thx

The only limit you have is about 1TB - now about the largest drives that will fit in notebook computers. Do you really have the need for something so large, though. You could get a good price on a 500-750GB drive and that would increase your internal storage nicely. Your model and OS don't limit you to the size of the hard drive you can install.

Maximum HDD size for HP 8510

Hi,
I have just bought an 8510p on auction and wanmt to upgrade the HDD from 120GB to 750GB.
Can nyone tell me if the 8510p can deal with a HDD that size?
If it can't what is the maximum size that can be installed?
Many thanks
Cameron
This question was solved.

Hi,
Based on the following specs, it uses SATA (most likely SATA II) HDD therefore you can use larger (capacity HDD). A 750Gb with 7200RPM will be very nice for this machine:

You may need to update BIOS for the machine:

Maximum HDD size for Satellite Pro 4290 ??

My hard disk is wearing out (Win 98 tells me it has many bad sectors). Do I have to fit a 6gig hard disk or can I upgrade? If so, how big a disk will the latest BIOS address?
I think I need a 2.5" 9.5mm disk, but I don't know if there are any other specifications I have to adhere to.
ALSO, if I buy a USB hard disk for back-up etc, will the computer see it? Is there a maximum size for external USB disks?
HELP!!!!
Mike

Hi Mike
There is no precise information or specification about this issue but I am sure that you can use 10 GB HDD without any problems.
I have two external HDD`s and I have no problem because I use both with USB 2.0. Your unit has just USB1.1 Maybe you should not use HDD with high capacity. I will try to connect my 30GB external HDD to USB1.1. After that I can report you what exactly happens.

What is the max HDD capacity for Satellite L300-1EI?

Hi there,
I have A laptop Sattelite L300 - 1EI Nodel PSLB8E - 05W013H2.
Currently I have a Hard Disk with the capacity of 120G .
It has lots of bad sectors.
I wold like to know what is the maximum capacity I could replace it with.
Thanks

Thanks for answering.
My problem is that I bought already a HDD of 500GB.
The BIOS recognize the HDD.
When I try to install Windows 7 the computer reads the files from the CD into memory
and when it finishes, before it has the chance to start writing it switch itself off and re-boots.
Is that mean that the contoller is gone or the capacity of the HDD is too high for this Laptop.
Thanks

Maximum HDD size for T61

I am thinking of upgrading my T61 with 1 TB WD HDD.
Dimensions
69.85 x 9.5 x 100.2 mm
Got a few doubts -
is 1 TB 9.5mm compatible with T61?
Would this model fit and work flawlessly with my T61- 7665 13 Q?
http://www.flipkart.com/wd-1-tb-laptop-internal-hard-drive-wd10jpvt/p/itmd7cgymhgh4whu?pid=IHDD7CGYQ...
Is it OK if I use a large boot drive i.e., 1 TB?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello,
That 2.5" 9.5mm high 1TB Western Digital SATA hard disk drive will work fine in a T61 or a T61p. You can even install a Hitachi 5K1500 hard disk drive with 1.5GB of storage. Both it and the Western Digital drive you linked to are 5400 RPM hard disk drives. If you would like something faster, Hitachi has the 7K1000, which is a 7200 RPM hard disk drive.
The key thing to make sure is that the drive you purchase is no taller than 9.5mm, like the one you selected or the Hitachi models listed above. Some higher capacity (1TB+) drives come in a 12.5mm or 15mm high enclosure, which won't fit inside a T61 or T61p.

Upper Limit On HDD Capacity For QS G4 2001 Model W/PCI ATA133 Card?

Hey Everyone,
I currently have a Tempo ATA133 PCI card installed in my QuickSilver G4 2001 system (http://www.sonnettech.com/product/tempo_ata133.html). To address capacity issues, I'm considering adding a very large 500 GB, 7200 RPM ATA133 Hitatchi HDD (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822147008), which would connect to this PCI card.
Does anyone have reason to believe this configuration would cause issues, or if there's an upper limit on the amount of HDD space a PCI ATA133 card can support?
My feelings are that this configuration will be fine, but I'd like feedback before I proceed.

Good information bhgdfh! I'll have to reinstall OS 9 it seems to load the firmware, which is fine. If I end up buying the drive, I'll post the results! Meantime, I'm keeping the question unanswered in case anyone else has additional input.

Max HDD Capacity for MS-7383(G31M2 V1)

Hi Team,
Can you please let me know the maximum hard disk capacity supported by MS-7383. As of now, it is running with 3SATA (250GB+250GB+320GB).
BIOS Version: V1.4 (A7383IMS V1.4 070309)
Thanks in advance.

It's been tested with P-ATA up to 750 GB & S-ATA up to 500 GB so as Stu said should be OK with even higher capacity drives than that.

Maximum HDD size for Satellite Pro 6000?

Hi, I am trying to install a 60 GB HD, but it formats, and it stops at Windows XP Pro instalation.
Is there a limit to HD size?
Thanx,
Ronaldo

Hi,
does it stop without any error message? If not then try another copy of WinXP since the Satellite Pro 6000 shouldnt have problems with that harddrive. I had 2 years a similar machine and I also had a 60GB Toshiba HDD installed. It worked like a charm, so I cannot imagine that the harddrive could be the problem.
Cheers
