Introduction |
| Is the hard drive in your Toshiba L755 having issues? This guide will show you how to replace it. | | '''***Note: This guide does NOT cover operating system installation. You will need to figure this part out yourself.'''*** | | | == ++Some notes for this guide:++ == | * '''***This computer REQUIRES a 7mm-9.5mm adapter for installation of a 7mm hard drive, which covers all modern Advanced Format drives. You will have to stick this to the top or bottom of your replacement hard drive. For a traditional spinning drive, I would suggest the bottom. If you use the top, cut it out to make room for the breather hole. The adapter in question can be found on [link|http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.X7mm+to+9.5mm+adapter.TRS0&_nkw=7mm+to+9.5mm+adapter&_sacat=0|eBay] if you do not have one on hand. No modification is needed for SSD's as there is no breather hole.'''*** | | * If you are reinstalling Windows, buy a OEM DVD that does not include a key if you just need the media and your product key is not worn out. If it is worn out, you will need OEM media that also comes with a product key. If you can find a Digital River ISO, this will work. Media other then Digital River images should not be trusted. | | * For Linux, you can find the distro you want from the official website and download it from there. |
