Recovering the Internal Storage Drive
The system will prompt you to insert several blank DVDs to copy the
internal storage drive recovery files. If your optical disc drive is not a
writable drive, contact Toshiba Customer Support to obtain the
Recovery media for your system.
The Toshiba Customer Support Center in the United States is
(800) 457-7777; outside the United States it is (949) 859-4273.
As you create your recovery DVD set, be sure to label each DVD
sequentially (for example, "1 of 3," "2 of 3," etc.), so that you will
know in which order to insert the discs during recovery.
