Purchased when on sale. Directions were adequate. Installation was easy, albeit you do need to have some background in running cables. No issues (as reported by others) in connecting via computer or via mobile (android). Only thing missing/lacking and very disappointing was no user manual. Had to go online, and worse, this particular model, I could not download the pdf. Imagine if you didn't have access to a computer, how would you know how to operate the system...

Required if having it installed. They should have another kit that includes an 2 additional lines (for those who are purchasing a dryer with the "Steam" feature). pretty silly to have stainless lines for the washer but not for the dryer (it requires hook up with hot water for the steam function). the Y adapter was included with the dryer, but it only had a rubber hose (1 foot) for the Y adapter.

First thing i noticed about this vent kit compared to my old one was how rigid it was. This also caused an issue in that my dryer and washer now sits out further from the wall as compared to my old washer/dryer. No issue with the installation.

This was purchased during a sale so my evaluation is based on that.. This was used to replace a bad hard drive in a laptop. since the user did not require a lot of storage space, this was perfect. Easy installation (although you should have some knowledge before attempting do replace).

Logitech M570 Wireless Trackball Mouse: Easily use your computer for long periods of time with this trackball mouse, which allows you to precisely navigate features with minimal wrist movement. Enjoy lasting comfort thanks to the sculpted shape, which supports the curves of your hand.
 

Where can I find an old driver to set/reset the buttons. The Scroll on my trackball doesn't work any more with Windows 10 and I can no longer change the functions of the different buttons. Elecom is no help at all.

google/bing for Logitech Set Point software for your trackball download and install (yes it does support windows 10). once installed, you can set up the various functions on the trackball using the Logitech software.

With Windows10, finding the Logitech interface might prove difficult for some...(once installed).

1. Open the old/traditional "Control Panel", select mouse, then you should see a tab for SetPoint settings. (right click windows logo, select control panel)

Optional way

1. go to windows 10 settings, select devices, then mouse & touchpad, then scroll down for additional settings, then find the tab SetPoint settings..

Is the red track ball (from a wired mouse) interchangeable with the blue track ball (from a wireless mouse) ? I own wired mouse and LOVE it, I'm considering going to a wireless version, Also does the change in ball position make a big difference?

yes, the trackball is interchangeable. In my case, it made the trackball movement (physical) much smoother. please note that the ergonomics is a bit different from the wired version (in my opinion.

Aloha:

based on the specs provided by Samsung on your model, yes, this will "Work". However, please note the interface is only a SATA2 (which is okay) but you will not get the full performance gain as provided by Toshiba (read, read/write speeds).

But yes to be clear, this will work....

toshiba laptop with IDE 2.5 in drive

laptop is toshiba satelite m35x-s109
pn psa72u-01300u
is there a ssd with PATA not SATA interface
Aloha:

Yes they do make SSD with PATA interface, but, they are considerably more expensive (just google PATA SSD) and the performance gain is not that much based on price/performance/storage size.

There is tons of varying opinions on this...so take my opinion with a grain of salt...

In addition, if you are not running Win7 or higher or linux...then that is another negative.. (I believe this laptop came with XP?)

toshipa laptop m35x-s109 with ide drive

i have two ide 160gb hd drives purchased 2008
what do i need to do to use these drives to replace ide drive in laptop
Aloha:

hmm don't mean to sound rude, but, you should consider replacing your laptop rather than trying to upgrade it...while i'm sure it has served you well over the years...in my opinion...it is not worth the investment...

however, if you truly want to...you can see if they make a hard drive caddy for your model that has a SATA interface (for the SSD Drive) but has an IDE interface (to connect the caddy to the motherboard). You will get some performance gain, but not that much....they do make these caddys, but again not sure for your model..this will add to your investment (around $25 or less)

Will this work in a Satellite P755-S5320?

Will this fit my laptop? Does it come with a cable to transfer the contents and programs on my current hard drive? Does moving my programs affect my licensed products? Thanks!
Aloha:

should fit your laptop, it does come with a spacer since this drive is only 7mm (if you bought a current model). Keep in mind your Satellite must have a SATA Interface (Preferably SATA3 for best performance).

It does not include any cables or the software to transfer. However, Toshiba does provide free software for you to download that will handle your migration to the SSD and yes, its free (no cable though).

Moving your OS and programs will not impact your licensing. Obviously, you need to use the same laptop...but no impact

How/where to download NTI Echo data migration software

Where are the instructions on how-where to download the free copy of the NTI Echo data migration software? Are they in the owner's manual? Will I need serial number or other info on the SDD to facilitate the download? Any info or guidance is greatly appreciated. Paul
Aloha:

download link is here:

http://www.toshibastorage.com/SSDKit/

its a free download and only works on Toshiba. As to the instructions, see here:
