Installation of a new hard drive into a Toshiba C55 B5353. This is my first how to video, sorry for how shaky the camera work is and low production value.

Thanks for the helpful video. Watching this made it a lot easy to replace the HDD. My HDD had two foam padding strips on the top. I moved those over to the SSD, and it fits snugly in the jacket without the need for that sticky foil backing.

Thank you for making this video. I am upgrading a coworker's Toshiba C55 B5353, and it was great to be able to use your video as a guide.

I used acronis true image. disk cloning software will only let you clone a smaller drive into a larger drive (last I checked).

That sticker on the original hard drive is on there for one reason: cost savings. By the way, Toshiba says the RAM is "not user replaceable", but as you can see by this video, it is not soldered to the motherboard or anything. It can be replaced, but only up to an 8GB SINGLE SODIMM. Once you have the cover off the laptop, it's a cinch to replace both the HDD and the RAM. You could probably also upgrade to a blu-ray burner if you wanted to (although I believe that can be done without removing the back of the laptop at all: Just remove one screw, pull out the old one, and slide in the new one and replace the screw.)

Thanks for the informative video. I hope you get that tripod and also, review your work before publishing it. Some spots were so blurry as we cant see the details. Slow down. Please, i am not complaining, I am offering suggestions to improve. I was surprised by the battery screws and you gave me a heads up. Similarly, the snap in back would have been hard for me to guess, being afraid to break something. I am right now looking at ordering an SSD as the 4 core Pentium is plenty fast for me but the HD is a little slow so a perfect fix. One other thing I would have added was a litlle more discusion on how it worked over the next week and how you felt about the overall speed increase. Thanks for the video.

I have the same model computer, but a different battery size. The port seems to be stuck down and everything is loose, except for the smaller part right beneath the hard drive.

Great Video! Exact procedure for Toshiba C55t-B5140. Used SATA to USB and used Macrium Reflect Free Edition. Only sticking point was C: still reads old clone version and not new HDD info. How do I assign the new specs/drive? Otherwise hardware is spot on identical. Thanks for post.

what do you mean exactly by old clone version? like drive size?

Figured it out. Used Partition Assistant (free) and joined unallocated new memory to C:/ Restarted and Eazy Peazy. Thanks again for great Video

Toshiba has the worst design ever! Just to remove a battery, you have to remove two screws. To replace a hard drive, you have to remove many. What a Joke! I've been fixing computers for over 35 years and I would never, again, NEVER (sorry for the caps), would buy or recommend anything Toshiba!
