replace toshiba laptop DVD with HDMI connection

[GuillermoRexach]

I have a Toshiba Laptop with a DVD drive that I never use. The laptop does not have HDMI , so I connect the TV using VGA. Can I replace the dvd with an HDMI port so I can use it for connecting to TV instead of VGA?

Not possible I'm afraid, there is no component or part available with which to achieve that on a laptop, not in place of the optical drive,

You can get an external USB 3 video card with an HDMI port if you really want to use HDMI https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H91BQ7Y/ref=sspa_dk_detail_2?pd_rd_i=B00H91BQ7Y&pd_rd_wg=qKTa7&pd_rd_r=9FHMMXZQXPC5WC0X4X2C&pd_rd_w=Bpm4f&th=1

Just make sure your system has USB 3, I would not use a video card on a USB 2 port, too little bandwidth.
