Satellite A200-195: What CD/DVD drive is compatible?

Hey Guys and gals,
I have had a look and asked Toshiba but no answer given so thought I would ask the experts here.
My DVD RW in my laptop TS L632D Has died and I need a new one.
So what one can I buy and fit without problems.
These drives are known to have issues with conflicts etc... so a different drive would be better.
So what do you guys and gals suggest.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi
Thank you very much that you are seeing us as experts :)
We all here are Toshiba notebook users and as you probably dont know this is a user-to-user forum. :) so maybe not really experts ;)
To be honest its not known to me that this CD/DVD drive causes issue.
As you probably dont know every CD/DVD drive doesnt support all possible CDs or DVDs from different manufacturers.
Some CDs and DVDs are more compatible and some CDs or DVDs are not fully compatible.
However, the point is that you need a new CD/DVD drive.
I checked the A200 user manual (can be downloaded from the Toshiba page) and there is a list with some compatible drives.
Check the user manual page 6 and 7
You can also call the ASP in your country. The guys known what CD/DVD drives are compatible with your notebook!
Bye

What External DVD Drives are Mac Compatible

Hi,
I've got an Early 2008 white macbook with a combo drive. I want to buy an external DVD burner but am struggling to purchase one that is Mac OSX 10.5.7 compatible.
I need it to burn DVD +R DL.
Can someone please recommend me a suitable drive?
Thanks
Barry

I'm struggling because lots of websites say a drive will work with Windows but not many state they will work with a mac.
Will this work?

Which CD and DVD drives are burn compatible with 7.02.16

Upgraded to this version and now my DVD RW drive cannot burn CDs anymore from iTunes. Worked fine with previous versions.
Which CD and DVD drives are burn compatible with 7.02.16? I want to get an USB external drive that I know Apple supports and will support with iTues.

Upgraded to this version and now my DVD RW drive cannot burn CDs anymore from iTunes.

What CD/DVD drive is compatible with Satellite A10-S103

I am using portable computer Toshiba Satellite A10-S103 and I am about to replace original CD/DVD-ROM drive with a new one which can also write CDs and DVDs.
However, I have been given a notice, that after installing new DVD drive the "IDE #1 error" message may appear. According to my knowledge, this error can be avoided by replacing the old drive with a new one that requires the same Primary/Secondary Master/Slave/Cable select settings as the old one.
Can you recommend me a DVD-RW drive that could replace the old DVD-ROM drive and would work without any further HW adjustments?
The new DVD-RW drive should be similar to i.e.
[http://www.sonynec-optiarc.de/en/exhibits/slim-line-drives/ad-7540a.html] .
However, I was not able to decide whether this device will or will not work in my computer as I do not know settings of the original DVD drive.
My original Toshiba DVD drive information as follow:
1. 'Model No.' SD-C2612
2. 'ROM Ver.' 1315
3. 'Serial No.' 394N002659
4. 'Ver. No.' 302.
The computer is already out-of-warranty
Thank you.

You are right. The IDE #1 error appears because the BIOS doesnt recognize the new internal CD/DVD drive due to the wrong master/slave/c-sel settings.
Usually such settings are fix and cannot be changed like on the external ODDs using other jumper position.
The firmware controls the internal notebooks ODD settings.
Therefore the usage of the supported and compatible ODDs is very important.
Sorry, but I didnt find any details about compatible CD/DVD drives.
Did you take a look into the user manual of your notebook series???
In my user manual I found some info about the compatible drives with my notebook.
So maybe you are a lucky man and your user manual will provide some useful informations.

Satellite A100-785 PSAANE - CD/DVD drive issue

Hello Friends,
I own a Toshiba Satellite A100-785 PSAANE and its configurations are as follows:
1.87 Ghz C2D, 1 Gb Ram (512 + 512), Windows Vista Basic, CD/DVD read/write...
Issue: Its been quite long, i m facing a certain problem with my Optical Drive. When ever I insert an CD which is originally produced by any company it works fine. The moment I insert any CD which is personally burned with some data from any normal CD/ DVD writer or the CDs which were previously created by the same laptop mentioned above, its been read as a blank disc. The data of the disk is not shown.
For eg: Lets say if I insert any software cd like my webcam's cd or my printer's cd they can be read normally and work fine. But the moment I enter any cd which is been burned by me which contains my personal files, that is been read as a blank disc.
This issue does not exists with any of the DVDs. Doesn't matter which every dvd I insert either being a normal software dvd or being the one which is burned as a personal data dvd, everything works fine and all the data in dvd can be read.
I have tried reinstalling the driver, I have tried reformatting my laptop using the Toshiba Recovery CD provided with the laptop, but the issue still exists.
In between few months ago, I tried doing some tweak, like first i insert the cd in the drive and then disable the cd drive and then enabling it again would actually read the cd. But after few tries, this also stopped working.
Now I really have no idea what should I do to make my CDs work normally.
I hope this post can help me out.
Your help will be appreciated
Thanks for your precious time
Regards
Jeetendra

For me it sounds like a DVD, where the data has been burned, were not fully compatible.
I meet such issue on different computers. A friend of mine has had the similar problem with an non Toshiba notebook. Its matter of the disks which are used for burning.
I tested several brands and now Im using TDK and Verbatim because my CD/DVD drive supports these kind of disk properly.
Of course it could be an hardware issue too but in such case you will need to replace the CD/DVD drive

Satellite A660 - Not finding external DVD drive

Hey guys. Newbie posting out of total desperation and needing help! I have posted in other forums with no luck. I bought a Samsung SH-D162D DVD Drive in a USB enclosure to connect to my Satellite A660 via USB.
I cannot get Windows 7 to find it! When I plug in the USB cable the balloon comes up to say it has been installed (sometimes), I can see it on for about 1 or 2 minutes then it drops off. It isnt listed in my hardware or anything. Its not found in Disk Management or My Devices so it isnt a case of changing the drive letter - I cant find the drive to change it. I have also tried to find the upper and lower settings in regedit. Couldnt find them so couldnt delete them as advised in other posts of this nature.
It is set to master, the IDE connector and power connectors are fine. Its gotta be a Windows 7 problem cause it does show up very breifly. In the minute or 2 its there I cant do anything with it. It just hangs although it will open and close. Ive googled it and cant find anything. Mainly registry issues but they didnt help.
Ive also connected it up to another laptop with XP and had no problems so I know the DVD Rom works fine and all the cables are ok. Ive tried in all 4 USB ports on my laptop and also turned off all energy settings. All with no luck. And I also have every Windows 7 update.
Heres exactly what happens from power off on the enclosure.
1 - I plug in the USB lead then turn on power to the enclosure.
2 - I quickly go to Start, and I can see the DVD Rom drive E next to my laptops dvd rom.
3 - The green bar at the top starts filling up from left to right and gets about half way then suddenly the DVD Rom icon disappears and so does the green bar.
4 - It then flashes up under the laptops DVD Rom icon with a Local Disk drive E but only for a split second.
5 - Sometimes a balloon comes up saying installing device, then device successfully installed...but not every time.
And thats it. I'm at a total loss and cant work it out, so any help is really appreciated!

Hi Smee,
So if you have already connected the external drive to another computer and this worked properly, it seems to be a driver or compatibility issue between your external DVD drive and and your Satellite A660
It will be connected to USB port so have you tried to remove all USB ports from device manager? After this you should restart your computer and the USB ports will be recognized from device manager automatically. Furthermore I would also try updating the chipset driver. Newest version you can download on official Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Have you also tested other devices on your A660 if they work properly?

Satellite A200-1M8 PAE6E: CD/DVD drive issue - power calibration error

Hi,
I have an Satellite A200-1M8 ( or A200 PAE6E ) with Vista and for some time I've been trying to burn some dvds which I failed due to power calibration error.
I tested my DVD-ROM and it works normally, the problem is it does not read (recognise) every dvd.
Is there anyone who can help me out about this?
Or how can I learn which type of media my DVD-ROM would read?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I think I have founded an interesting article for you:
[Is there a list of supported type of CD-R/-RW or DVD-R/+R/-RW/+RW/-RAM discs which should be used?|http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=36]
But generally a power calibration error means that its the media is faulty or not compatible with the drive.

My optical drive went out. what external dvd drive will work?

My optical drive is going out. I went to Apple and they suggested I buy an external dvd drive instead of paying $150+ to replace the drive on my MacBook Pro. I bought the Samsung Ultra Portable Slim External DVD drive and it took about 15+minutes for my Mac to even acknowledge it. Then it read the dvd and then my Mac told me it was consuming too much power through the USB and disconnected it. And I could not get it to work after that. I called Apple Support to find out what drives will work and they told me their USB Superdrive. I told them I read it won't work with Mac's that already have an optical drive installed, they looked it up and told me I'm correct. When I asked them what other drives they suggest, they told me they had no idea and I should google it.
Super frustrated.

Virtually ant external drive should work with your MBP. I would suggest one with external power so that you do not run into the same problem.
You might try a USB 'Y' connector with the one that you have purchased. That may allow sufficient power for it to operate. This is an example:

Ciao.

Satellite M30 - restore from external DVD Drive

Hi,
I have a Satellite Pro M30. There is a problem with the internal DVD Multi Drive - the replacement will take a month or so to get here. I need to perform a restore on this machine. I have connected an external DVD drive to the machine. When I boot up the machine boots from the recovery CD but then seems to be looking for a drive X. I get the following messages on the DOS screen:
Device Name : TOSCD001
Number of Units: 1
CDR101: Not ready reading drive X
Abort,Retry,Fail?
Please insert Recovery CD-ROM #1!
What should I be doing?
Regards,
Sameer

Hello Sammer
Unfortunately the recovery media is created to be used from internal drive only. I dont believe that you will be able to use it with external device. On recovery CD there is a ghost image and it is not easy to arrange it for usage with external device.

What external dvd drive is compatible with IMAC with optical drive

what external drive is compatiblee with IMAC with optical driv

As far as my experience goes I have had all external dvd drives work throu USB, the USB stands for Universal Seriel Bus and that means the drives are already in the device, so you can probably just go to best buy or to new egg and order a cheap one.
If you have usb 3.0 I would go with that since its one of the faster ones and you will save money on using a thunder bolt device, and trust me a $17 dvd player works just as good as a $120 dvd player.

How can I determine what internal DVD drives are compatible w/ my G5?

I'd like to put a new DVD drive in my G5. It's one of the original 1.8 dual machines, with some extra RAM. I'm having trouble with the drive these days, and I'd like to figure out what drives are compatible. Thoughts?

I cannot speak for all drives but today I installed a Pioneer 710 ( same drive as 111 ) in place of the original Pioneer 106.
I have only tested it with Toast to burn a DVD-R and playing a CD and all is well.

System recovery on Satellite M100 due to CD/DVD drive not being recognised

Hi.
My computer won't recognise the internal CD/DVD drive anymore (eg. if I go to rip a CD with Media Player it says to install a CD drive first).
I have followed the FAQs on the Toshiba support page, and it has lead me to do a System Recovery. I followed the instructions (switch off, start up while holding "0", release 0 when computer beeps ...) but it isn't working.
The comp starts beeping as expected, but when I let go of "0" it just starts up windows as normal.
Can anyone help? Do I need to do the recovery with a CD instead? Obviously that will be a problem if the drive doesn't work though :(

So... after months of trying to fix this issue it would make sense that less than an hour after I've put a post asking for help, the thing would fix itself for no reason.
Yep. Seems to be working now. I have no idea why :/
