Recovering the Internal Storage Drive
NOTE
When you create recovery DVDs/media, the system will prompt
you to insert several blank DVDs or connect one or more USB flash
drives of a certain minimum capacity to your computer. The amount
of space required for storing the recovery files varies by computer
model. Follow the procedure below to determine how much space
you will need for storing your system's recovery files.
If you want to copy the recovery files to DVDs, you will need an
optional external writable optical disc drive with the capability to
write information to discs.
To create recovery DVDs/media:
1
Select Start, All Programs, My Toshiba, and then Recovery
Media Creator.

When you create recovery DVDs/media, only the operating system
files, applications, and drivers originally shipped with the computer
are backed up to the external media and can be restored from this
media. Any files that you created are not backed up on the recovery
DVDs/media. You will need to separately back up the files you
created; for more information, see
