2 SATA or sata 3?

• Migrating to SATA drive to iMac

  Four days ago my MacPro (2010) died. I have four 3 "SATA drives from 1 to 2 to each of Mac Pro. The computer was for business and personal use. Absolutely everything (including financial information) I have is on these four discs, including redundant copies of some files, but also my Time Machine backup.

  I will have an envelope coming tomorrow which is a RAID box but will be executed in the independent drive with four drives Mode. My 'new' computer is an iMac (2013), that was given to me.  The iMac and the main SATA drive running the same version of the operating system. I need to resolve this issue quickly so I can return to work. In the immediate future, I intend to operate out of the primary SATA drive to catch up, and then transfer when I'll have a good time to transfer.

  My question is the best way to get the entire contents of the primary SATA drive on the iMac's hard drive. I want everything that is on the main SATA drive to put to be on the iMac (including the prefs and hidden folders) of Mac Pro and it would be the same when I booted the Mac Pro.

  Can I use migration utility, clone the drive SATA main to the iMac or even use the Time Machine backup?

  If I clone the drive, I know that I would have to boot from one disk other than the iMac drive to clone to the iMac. When the primary SATA drive is attached, I need to boot from it by holding down the option key at startup key to select the startup disk.

  If I use the Migration utility, it seems I start the iMac, and then run the utility to the iMac of the SATA drive range, which would be connected to the iMac. This would replace all the information on the iMac even though it was the boot drive?

  I printed the information on the Migration of Apple Mac help when transferring to another storage device, but it's not quite clear to me.

• Crash of MacBook, iMac with SATA-USB cable files

  Hello.

  My Macbook (2006) took a nose dive after a very solid 10 years of use. He has been blocked on the gray screen with the Apple logo and the spinning equipment. Forever. Would not boot mode safe mode or Recovery Mode. I accepted this.

  I'm currently trying join my school for the HARD of MB my iMac disk files. I removed the drive HARD internal of the MB. I have a SATA cable / USB. I plugged the cable on my iMac and initially nothing was recognized even if I could hear the disk rotation. After about 2-3 minutes I got a message telling me the disc HARD cannot be repaired, but I could always transfer files. Great! That's all I wanted to do. Well, the HARD drive appeared in the Finder and I tried to navigate to find important files I got a message telling me that the HARD drive has been expelled irregularly. So I disconnect it, plug it in. Another few minutes and I get the same message (cannot be repaired), but this time I have no HARD drive in the Finder. I tried to run first aid at the disk in disk utility, without success. Now I can't even pop-up in the Finder or disk utility when I plug. I can hear it running, but nothing happens, and then I get a message "disc not eject properly.

  My question is this: How can I get information from this my iMac HARD drive? Is there anything else I need to do? All I want to do is pull my notes of the current semester. Nothing else on this HARD drive as it was basically just a web browser/treatment for the past year.

  FWIW: I think I was running Lion as an operating system on the laptop that I couldn't progresses from here with updates. I'm under El Capitan on my iMac.

  Even if you already shot the player, have you considered using Disk Mode target instead?

  Target disk mode, indeed, turns your Mac into a 'external drive '. In this mode, you can connect your defective Mac to Mac via FireWire or Thunderbolt and see the contents of the disc of the CMA on your Mac, as if the drive was an external drive. This not only allows you to easily access the data on the hard drive of the Mac, it also allows you to use the material of a Mac to boot another Mac operating system and data.

  To access the target disk Mode, reboot your Mac and hold down the T key as soon as you hear the startup chime. Keep now until you see a FireWire logo or white Thunderbolt appear on the screen (depending on the hardware capabilities of your Mac). Now, you can directly connect your Mac to Mac defective with the appropriate cable and access the drive of this Mac. When you are done, unmount the drive of the defective Mac from your Mac running OS X, then press on and hold the power button / stop the Mac defective until the system turns off.

• Get 6G SATA in the platters of drive Mac Pro 2010

  After some research, it seems that the procedure to attach a map of mini SAS PCIe to readers in the disc trays Mac Pro internal is simple enough for the Pros of the Mac 2006-8, but not so much for 2009-2012.

  Why not just buy a special tray in which you mount the SSD and it connects to your SATA bus using one of the four internal trays. However, this bus doesn't support 3G in this model, a 6G SSD will work, but not as fast.

  Thank you

  If attack you any problem drive, now you have a chance of saving most or all of your data. If you expect that the disc is really dead, as then you are stuck with paying a recovery company data of hundreds of thousands of dollars for maybe recover some of your data. For me, it's an easy choice.

• Failure of SATA 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM

  Hello, never posted before, so this is. My i - mac 2010 hardrive failed.

  I would like to get a replacement can anyone point me to a reliable source... For a good replacement hardrive if you please. I think also, apparently the hard drive must be SATA II, not III. Those from my local computer store seems to be III SATA, SATA III does not work?

  I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction. Also, I'm in the United Kingdom. If a British supplier would be great. Thank you very much.

  My first suggestion is to make an appointment with the Apple Genius Bar for the service. If you need a Apple Store - find a store - Apple. Check first to see if they can replace the drive for you. Unless you know how to disassemble your iMac and fix, I wouldn't recommend that you try. In regards to a disc, you should look into disk utility to see what is the serial number and the model for the wrong drive, if you can. Good replacements are made by HSGT. You may need a special connector to replace the disk temperature probe or your fan runs at full speed all the time. Looking for more information and tutorials at OWC.

  Almost all SATA III drives are compatible with SATA II disk controllers. They will work unless the model States that is not backward compatible.

• Disk compatibility HARD MacBook Pro end 2010... SATA?

  I have the mid-late 2010 15 "Macbook Pro. Currently, he has the 500 GB HDD 2.4 GHz inside and want to go to 1 TB. I will be upgrading the 8 GB of RAM and I wonder...

  1 a the SATA specifications can he manage? II? III? SATA 6?

  2. any recommendations for transmission models?

  I found this:

  SATA 6

  http://www.Amazon.com/black-performance-mobile-hard-drive/DP/B01DOL05OC

  If I can't go SATA 6 How about something else similar? 7200 RPM and 1 TB that works?

  Thanks 1million expert Apple!

  A 2010 MBP has SATA2 3Gbps connectivity.  However all readers will be retro-compatible.  Try OWC:

  http://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-notebook/

  There are cheerleaders for all different brands, but the bottom line, they all will work.

  Capacity is not a problem.  Now they come up to 2 TB.

  I have a Crucial 1 TB SSD in my MBP 2010 and it works as expected, fine.

  Ciao.

• Pavilion 22-H010EL: need to replace the cable SATA in my AIO, can't find the right

  Hi all, I have a problem with my 22-H010EL AIO HP Pavilion TouchSmart.

  The hard drive broke twice while PC was covered by the warranty; now the warranty period is over, and the hard drive broke again. I guess that there is a power supply problem, in fact I see the hard drive has boots more than I actually received; Sometimes I hear a sound of boot clearly while the PC is on (and I'm sure that's not because of the stand by, because it happens while I use it). Also, just after the first replacement of hard disk, it showed 7 boots upward in an hour; I guess the power/SATA cable is damaged, the origin of the problem described, but it could be the motherboard, too.
  I would like to replace the cable to see if it works, I really hope he does it; Thanks in advance for any response.

• 1 TB SATA v/s PCIe - storage versus Flash and RAM wanted to set up.

  Hello

  I am new to Mac and can't wait to buy Mac Mini.

  I studied the difference between a PCIe-based Flash storage and Serial ATA Drive, which of course turns out PCIe Flash Storage is ahead then SATA.

  Two choices are running in my mind:

  1. 1 TB SATA drive, can I configure 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM

  or

  2. If I choose Flash on PCIe storage, should I configure 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM

  FYI,.

  My work will not develop or too technical point of view.

  Thank you

  (8 or 16 GB) memory and storage are independent. It is not in the other.

  The memory cannot be upgraded later since it soldered to the logic board.

  If you can afford it, I'd go for the 16 GB.

  You did not specify how yo use the mac so maybe 8 GB is enough.

• Satellite X 200: Connector SATA secondary ADD (weld)

  Hello

  I have a laptop Toshiba X 200 - 23P (PSPB9E)

  This model has a single disk hard disk and just a SATA connector to connect this HDD.

  But on the card mother, there is possible to weld another Sata connector on the motherboard.

  My question is: when I welded this port, my motherboard can detect and work with two drives?

  Thank you

  PS: Sorry for my English, I'm French (but is not a reason)

  Hello

  Something like that is not possible.
  The motherboard seems to support a SATA HDD controller and you can not move from the motherboard with another extra controller.

  You will need to stay with an internal HARD drive

• Portege M700 - Speed/standdard for new SSD SATA

  Hello
  I would like to by SSD drive for my Toshiba Portege M700-116.

  What dish speed SATA can I buy?

  SATA 1.0 (SATA 1.5 Gb/s)
  SATA 2.0 (SATA 3 Gb/s)
  SATA 3.0 (SATA 6 Gb/s)

  Thank you
  Jan

  Hello

  I'm not quite sure on the SATA specification, but I think that the Portege M700 m supports SATA II HDD controller.
  However, you can install like Sisoft SANDRA hardware diagnostic tools for detailed specifications of controller.

  But SATA is backward compatible, which means that even if you want to use a SATA III SSD, SSD drive would be recognized but speed will be limited to the performance of SATA II.

• HP ENVY m6-1232ea: can I add a ssd sata-m and can be larger than 32 GB for my HP ENVY m6-1232ea

  It can be larger than 32 GB, but it is not the boot drive and its only real function is as a cache of acceleration for the main mechanical hard drive, for which really impossible to use something bigger.

• Satellite A300-15B - 300 SATA-Compatible?

  Hi all
  I only run Kubuntu (64 bit) for the moment on my machine, but I would add an extra internal hard drive, so to reinstall Vista.

  My questions are:
  1. If there is no problem with the extra hard drive, (the beach is empty then why not add a few outside more GB of storage?)?
  2. I found that good part of WD 500 GB but it's sata 300 so I'm not sure if my motherboard can afford it.

  If the above is fine, something extra, off-topic will be if I can still use my windows activation key.

  Many thanks in advance,
  Nikos

  Hey,.

  It s absolutely no problem adding a second HDD. As you already wrote, why not add a few more ;) GB

  General rule, SATA 300 (> SATA2) hard drives are not a problem. As far as I know Satellite A300 already supports SATA2 and if not all SATA2 hard drives is compatible downgrade SATA1 interface. So each SATA HDD work on each controller SATA, no compatibility issues don't.

  If you install Toshiba Recovery disk Windows, no activation or product key is required.
