Satellite P300-01S: Second HDD cover will not fit back on

Hi,
I have a P300-01S (Canada). There is a second drive bay, including the sata/power connectors.
I've installed a second hard drive (64gb SSD), and it works just fine.
However, the cover for the drive bay will not fit back on. The cover has 5 pegs that prevent it from being put back on if a drive is in the bay. I believe the pegs are there to provide support to the cover when no drive is in there.
I see no way to remove these other then to snap them off. Any ideas?
These are not the normal tabs on the edges that are used to hold the cover in place, these are 1/2" long cylindrical pegs in the middle of the drive bay cover.

I would hav preferred not to cut anything either, but I couldn't find a part# online to order a cover without the pegs. I am sure there are some P300's (maybe Satelitte Pro P300's) out there that do list the 2nd drive bay as a feature, so they must have a cover without those pegs, but I couldn't find it.
It's working, pegs are cut off so the door fits on now. SSD is working well too.

  • Satellite P300-20H - Second HDD caddy

    Satellite P300-20H, PSPC8E
    This laptop has a second HDD bay and a second drive works in the bay.
    I have tried in vain to find a HDD caddie for the second HDD bay, can anyone point me in the right direction for the part number or a shop that sells them.
    Thanks

    I have upgraded brothers P300 with second HDD but I didnt use HDD bay. I have just fixed second HDD to stay in the same position with piece of plastic so that HDD will stay in place.
    You can also contact Toshiba service and ask for help. I am pretty sure they have such HDD bays used before and can imagine you can get one.
    Visit also eBay/notebooks and check for Toshiba hard drive caddy. I saw several bays there.

  • Satellite P300 - 01S or PSPCCC-01S01C CPU is underclocked with each Bios update

    Why is Toshiba crippling the performance of the CPU ,FSB and Memmory speed with each bios update
    when perchased bios version 1.60     
     *    internal clock speed 2001 MHz
    update to Bios version 1.80
    *   internal clock speed 1995 MHz
         crippled performance by .5 %
    update to Bios version 2.50
    *    internal clock speed 1993.4
         crippled performance by 1.95 %
    *    other issues fan coming on more often
         intel wireless unstable
         etc
    in this last Bios update 2.50 a noticable drop in performance under load
    I paid for >>"Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P7350 (2.0GHz 1066MHz FSB, L1 Cache 32KB/32KB, L2 Cache 3MB)"  not a 1.9 Processor
    >> YOU ARE CRIPPLING THE FSB AND MEMMORY TIMINGS AND UNDER CLOCKING MY LAPTOP <<
    I would like it restored to its former advertised speed 2.0GHz
    The reduced speed is noticable.
    everyone should check for obvious reduced performance

    thank you for your repley
    i am very much in favor of stability ,reliability and performance but the fact remains
    that Toshiba Techs have made a conscious  and willfull decision to under clock the laptop and make no
    mention that the bios updates may result in processing reduction, as for the call to tech support it was fruitless
    because they are clueless as to why such things happen (Corporate Denial).
    In Canada there were two very close speced laptops
    one for 899.00 CAD with 1.9 GHz CPU
    and the one I bought 2 months ago 1149.00 CAD 2.0 GHz
    To me this looks like Toshiba overclocking the laptop to get out the retail door.
    its not just affecting me, it affects everyone that buys a Toshiba laptop.
    I will not back down on this point. The origional advertised and paid for specs, should
    be restored in an upcoming bios update. If not, then it just confirms my original
    findings.
    This is refered to as "BAIT and SWITCH" and the practice is illegal in Canada.

  • My case cover will not

    The case cover for my NOMAD Jukebox Zen XTRA will not fit on properly
    I read the instructions and believe that it is on the proper way. The case cover fits securly over the bottom section, but not the top, and therefore from a side-view is slanted.
    Any suggestions to fix this?They would be apperciated, thanks.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

    One of the jacks is for audio in and the other is for audio out. Some select versions have an S/PD/F jack. Chances are the reason you are getting static is that if you plug an earphone into a microphone jack it will attempt to behave as a microphone. It will not operate properly.
    So..a recap. There is only one earphone jack

  • Am trying to insert new cartridge in Image Class D530. Toner cover will not close after insertion?.

    I am trying to insert new toner cartridge in Image Class D530 laser printer.  After insertion of cartridge, correctly I think, the toner cover will not close. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Sparrow.
    What is the model number of the toner cartridge that you are experiencing issues with?  The imageCLASS D530 supports the Canon Cartridge 128.
    Please follow the instructions below to insert the toner cartridge.  Ensure that both sides are level as you are inserting the cartridge in the machine:
    1.  Verify that the orange tabs and sealing tape have been removed.
    2.  Insert the toner cartridge.
    Fit the protrusions (A) on each side of the toner cartridge into the guides located on each side of the machine. Slide the toner cartridge into the machine, until the toner cartridge meets the back of the machine.
    I hope this information is helpful to you.  Should you need further assistance, please contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).

  • T61 Cut off in middle of working and will not come back on

    I have a T61p that was working fine, then just cut off.   It was plugged into power outlet.  It will not come back on, or display any lights.  I have tried the 10 power button pushes, last for 30 secs several times now and it does not have an effect.  I have pulled the drives out and the memory also.
    Any other help?
    Thanks!

    So the power light is still there, but the laptop doesn't come on, does the HDD drive spin up when you press the power button? 
    Do you have warranty still? If not you can still get a post warranty warranty extension by calling lenovo, and get the laptop fixed.
    Was your laptop overheating or doing weird stuff before this event occurred?

    To reset your iPod nano (2nd generation):
    Reset
    1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    2. Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
    Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.
    Retry
    Retry your iPod with a different USB or FireWire port on your computer (please note that the latest iPods can only be synced through USB).
    Restart
    Restart your computer, and make sure that you have the latest software updates installed.
    Reinstall
    To reinstall your iPod nano (2nd generation):
    To update and reinstall your iPod software, first download the latest iTunes software.
    Next, open the new version of iTunes and connect your iPod to your computer. iTunes will then automatically check to see if your iPod needs to be updated and perform the update for you.
    To then check the software version on your iPod, select it from the source list in iTunes. iTunes will display the information about your iPod.
    Restore
    To restore your iPod nano (2nd generation):
    Warning: Because Restore erases all of the songs and files on iPod, make sure to back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
    How to restore your iPod:
    Make sure you've reinstalled the latest version of iTunes.
    Open iTunes, and then connect your iPod to your computer.
    After a few moments, it will appear in the Source list in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source list and you will see information about it appear in the Settings tab of the main iTunes windows.
    Click the Restore button. You will be prompted with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download of the latest iPod Software. The 4 possible restore options are:
    Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
    Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
    Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen indicating that the first stage of the restore process has started. When this stage is completed, iTunes will instruct you to leave iPod connected to your computer to complete restore.
    During the stage 2 of the restore process, the iPod will show an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remains connected to the computer or iPod Power adapter during this stage. Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see since the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage 2 of the restore process is complete and the iPod is connected to the computer, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences similar to when you connected your iPod for the first time.

  • The iPhone I got yesterday turned off and will not turn back on.

    The iPhone I got yesterday turned off and will not turn back on.

    Is it charged? If so try a reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.  If it's not charged, charge it via a wall socket for a least 30 minutes then try the reset again.

  • How to solve Audition CS6 error "The amount of audio to burn will not fit on the CD........."?

    I have a brand new PC that is MORE than adequate. I have once succeeded in burning a CD after learning all about time tracks and merging them. (made a few with only ONE track)
    Two things:
    1) I find that I must add a CD marker at the end of the WAV because Audition CS6 erases whatever is the last CD marker I've made. Very frustrating but now I know I have to do this but I have no idea WHY!!
    2) Right now I have a WAV that is just over 1 hour and 3 minutes with a total of 637.74MB of info. When I try to export/burn a CD, I get an error message stating "The amount of audio to burn will not fit.......".  I am using TDK 700MB blanks with a Pioneer Blu-ray burner.
    Obviously it will fit.
    What am I doing wrong, all of a sudden?

    Hey ryclark,
    Thanks for responding. Something else is going on here.....
    Here's what I re-replied to our friend...
    Thanks for the response.
    When I built this computer last Nov/Dec, it was built with the second 
    fastest Intel 7i, quad-core chipset on an 64-bit ASUS motherboard. It's  running
    Win 7 Pro. It has a 500GB SSD "C" drive with another 14 TB of true hard 
    drive space. It is set up with 64 bit. I had been using Audition CS3 for  many
    years and even go back to it's origin: Cool Edit and Cool Edit Pro. My 
    learning curve was minimal, sans the CD burning, which I used other software
    for  which is now antiquated, so I need Audition for this. Between this and 
    IZotope 3 I've repaired and improved many a recording. All-in-all extremely 
    useful software.
    As for the idea "to burn it anyway", well the error message comes up and 
    that's it - if I "X" out of that message and try to burn again the message
    comes  back  - so Audition will not let me. It is convinced that this file is 
    longer than it really is, but only when I add track  marks to it!
    There are only 11 tracks.
    I was able to burn a CD of this same file but without all the track marks, 
    so the same exact file length/size will burn, only as the one track.
    I've also succeeded in burning other WAV's , both greater and smaller, with
    and without multiple track marks, without issue. Of course all with less 
    than the CD's max. capacity.
    This problem seems to be with this one file. I've even  re-made/re-recorded
    the file from scratch with no change. There's something else  going on here
    that I can't put my finger on. (I am "recording" LP's and making  personal
    CDs of them)
    Also, only from time to time, I have another error after burning a CD that 
    states it could not verify the CD. For this I assume it is the blank rather
    than AA? The first might burn without issue and with the second burn I 
    get the error. It is near the end of a stack of blanks, so.....
    As for the need to "mark the end" of the file makes a lot of sense but of 
    all the other CD track-marking software I've used, none needed one to do
    this,  but this IS Adobe after all.
    You'd think there might be a smidge of intuitiveness with Adobe, but maybe 
    not.
