2nd HD and RAID

I recently bought a Pavilion p6510y (4 months ago) that came with a 720 GB HD SATA configured in RAID. I added a WD SATA 80 GB (WD800AAJS) to be used as a backup. Worked fine for a few weeks then when I rebooted the screen came with BOOTMNGR not found is press CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart. Done several times with the same results. Technical support did not help too much. I started to disconnect the devices one at a time and he finally went down to the 2nd HD. Once disconnected all is well. Is it possible to add a 2nd HD without this never happen. Is this something to do with RAID - do not know too much with the RAID. Motherboard is an ALOE with 6 SATA and a CPU AMD x 4 connectors.

Thanks in advance

Hello deweymitch, can you unplug the cables of the 750 GB drive and plug them into the 80 GB drive and see if you can install no matter what operating system of the 80GB drive? If so, the installation of the OS would fix MBR errors on this drive. After that, you can reconnect the 750Go and the 80 GB drives and see if it will start Windows normally. You must ensure that the boot drive is connected to the sata port 0, since it is the port of the BIOS boot. Will not see a drive not partitioned and formatted by the operating system, until it was partitioned and formatted.  You have the disc from a manufacturer for the 80 GB drive hard drive. If you could so, insert it into the optical drive with the drive of 80 GB connected and disconnected to drive 750 GB and partition and format the drive of 80 GB. You can then reconnect the drives and see if you have resolved the problem. According to me, the question that must be in the MBR, who lives on the 750 GB drive.

  • Can I use the 2nd HD with RAID 0 in my G15-AV501 QOSMIO?

    Dear,

    I have a QOSMIO G15-AV501. This model does not support HD RAID by the BIOS, but I would use software RAID.
    The question is: can I use the 2nd HD using RAID 0 by re? I will use as RAID 0 in order to promote the overall performance. Is this possible?

    Thank you.

    Dario of Colombia.

    Hello

    I don t think you will be able to use the RAID if the laptop doesn't supports RAID and has no RAID controller.
    Usually for RAID using the RAID controller driver must be installed. This must be done at the beginning of the installation of the OS. Without this driver HARD drive can't be recognized and you will not be able to install the operating system.

    However, as I know the RAID option doesn t accelerates the overall performance.
    The RAID is useful if the first disk goes dead and restore you the data.
    RAID mirroring option saves the data on two hard disks.

  • I have 2nd gen and cable provider ATV...

    I have ATV 2nd generation and the cable operator with lots of channels such as hbo, nick, etc. How can I watch shows from these channels using my ATV thanks

    This is a basic form of the app to the app, content providers. It has very little to do with your cable provider.

    IE things like CBS App offer broadcasts, but HBO NOW, I do not think this offer.

    While some applications may require that you connect with your account of cable television, this does not mean options Live are available.

    Live, you have your cable subscription and their box. Apple Tv is usually for on-demand playback, and do not have all of them live Tv stream options of programming.

  • I have ipod shuffle 2nd generation and need new charger (dock) can still buy these?

    I have ipod shuffle 2nd generation and need new charger (dock) can still buy these?

    Apple no longer sells the official replacement of the USB cable with the "cradle".  Do not buy the replacement USB docking cable for the current 4th gen (3rd generation) iPod shuffle, because it does not work with 2nd gen shuffle (the connector is different).

    There are 3 replacements of party, for example

    http://www.Amazon.com/eForCity-Sync-Charger-cradle-shuffle/DP/B0042EB270/

    There are other products similar, including some who do not have the cradle, and some who do not even have a cable (like this one)

    http://www.eBay.com/ITM/USB-data-sync-charger-cable-for-Apple-iPod-shuffle-2nd-G balances - / 221546931454

    Ensure that the product is described as being the shuffle gen 2  I'd go with one that has a docking station, because it maintains the shuffle at a constant specific position compared to the socket, which can be important for a shuffle gen 2.

  • 2nd generation and 6th gen Ipod touch.  Can I continue to use both?

    I have an Ipod Touch 2nd generation and get a 6th generation one for Christmas.  I want to continue to use both.  I heard that the 2nd generation will not be able to use the most recent ios.  How can I use both?  Of course, it takes a lot less memory also.  I have not would care if they are not sync, but I don't want to plug an and destroy the contents of the other.  Should I configure them with different user accounts or?

    You want to keep the same Apple ID That's what your content is about.

    You can very easily manage different content on each device. I manage different content on my ipad and iPod and they have different iOS.

    Your other older will continue to operate, he won't be able to do everything that the 6th gen due to having an older iOS and probably less apps that can be installed on it.

    And then if you use it just for the music, there are no descendants.

  • Aspire BIOS and RAID m3970

    Hello

    I noticed in the tab BIOS for an Acer Aspire M3970 and then advance under the integrated devices, there are options for the SATA mode on "Native IDE", "AHCI" and "RAID".

    I would like to know what RAID modes are supported by the RAID option on this forum. I can't seem to find this information anywhere does support at least 1 RAID when you have two drives?

    Any help would be great. Thank you.

    This system supports Raid 0, Raid 1, Raid 5, and Raid 10 configurations.

  • Problem of ESXi 5.5 and RAID

    So I have an ESXi host and RAID problem with a motherboard for Intel Server S1200V3RP. Basically, the problem is that the 5.5 ESXi host is not recognizing the RAID array set up with the utility integrated. See the images below for what I mean.

    Click here

    Click here


    I did some research and my research has pointed out to me the possibility that this on the Intel Server raid controller is not actually a hardware controller but a piece of software built using the computer as controller. My research basically tells me that ESXi is super picky and don't play well with fake RAID. Although I may be wrong on this subject the behaviour of ESXi and each site Web I found says that this may be the case. I tried integrating storage and RAID drivers in the iso ESXi, I tried to update the BIOS chipset with the deployment server disk, and the management and I tried a USB installation with the drivers but nothing seems to solve this problem.

    Since ESXi does not the table as something other than dedicated disks, I tried an inventive work around by choosing the AHCI BIOS and install ESXi 5.5 mode host on a dedicated disk (volume 0). Then I switched back to RAID and used the Intel Rapid Storage Management utility to configure a RAID5 to three remaining disks. It seems to work very well and I was able to access the vsphere ESXi environment. However I couldn't see the RAID volume again on vsphere storage.

    I've plotted a plan where I could load the drives as individual data on the host and virtual server stores use the disk management utility or another program for RAID 3 hard drives together so that they appear as a single volume. However when I booted the system upward it appeared that the integrity of the RAID5 degraded after the addition of each drive separately (probably because he had to load a VMFS on each disc, thereby breaking the table). So this probably won't work (and even if it's possible, it's probably unnecessarily complex).


    Click here


    So yes, I don't have really a clear idea of the place where to go to get the RAID controller integrated to be read by ESXi. I was told that there may be compatibility issues between VMware and my Intel server model, but I checked and its on its list of approved so compatibility it couldn't be her. I guess I could just stick with dedicated drives and load the HARD drives as data stores, and then use software RAID across virtual machines - but I am concerned about the way in which redundancy will include when we drive finally fails (could I just Exchange on as a hardware raid?). I always thought that software RAID (especially on windows server disk management) smb read and write speed is terrible compared to hardware RAID.

    Anyone know a solution to this problem or where I could go from here?

    I did some research and my research has pointed out to me the possibility that this on the Intel Server raid controller is not actually a hardware controller but a piece of software built using the computer as controller. My research basically tells me that ESXi is super picky and don't play well with fake RAID.

    ESXi is not 'super picky' here. This kind of fake-RAIDs that are so common on desktop PC motherboards and entry-level rely on specific drivers provided by the hardware vendor to work really. And suppliers basically only provide Windows drivers in the first place. Any other non-OS Windows would be faced with the same question. Try installing a Linux and that you will not see your RAID volume either.

    Yes, your motherboard does not use a real independent of hardware RAID but a cheap RAID/fake-software controller. See the Intel website:

  • Files, database and Raid 11 G

    Our new 11g server is Windows 2003 32-bit with disks configured in Raid 1 and Raid 5. Here is how it is prepared.

    First group of disks Raid 1 OS and Oracle Home is 144 GB in size.

    Second disk Raid 1 group is 276 GB in size. Currently empty.

    Third disk Raid 5 group is 836 GB. Currently empty.

    What I'm trying to understand, is where should I put my files of database for better performance. My plan is to put the Temp tablespace in the first group of Raid 1 with the OS and the Oracle home. Then I'll put the Redo Logs and Rollback Segments on the second Raid 1 group. I'll put the other files in the database on the Raid 5 group with archive logs. Also, I intend to put a control file on each of the Raid groups to space out them.

    All reading I did on this forum and others, this seems like the best solution, but before I create the database, I wanted to make sure. I was unclear if I should move away from the OS and Oracle Home Temp tablespace, move the archive logs to a Raid 1 group or move my tablespace Index data files on the Raid 5 group.

    Visual layout

    RAID 1 = OS, Oracle Home and tablespace Temp (control file)

    RAID 1 = Redo logs and Rollback (control file)

    RAID 5 = data files and archive logs (control file)

    Should I do something different? Thanks for any advice.

    With today's technology, it's not really important :-) Unless you have special needs when your database is heavily loaded and you need less than a second time to answer, you can put everything on RAID5. Our database contains all files and executables on RAID5 (Oracle Applications ERP database). PlL see ML Doc 30286.1 (IO Tuning with the different RAID Configurations) for more details.

  • Presario 8000T with 2 SATA and Raid

    I had a hard drive go bad today and I want to replace the 80 G SATA (computer bought in 2004).

    I don't need really for the RAID feature and would like to just run 1 car (a new) and disconnect the 2nd.  I have an external hard drive that I use for backups.

    Question: Is it making too easy that disconnecting SATA # 2 (not use) and install the new SATA drive and install Windows XP Pro top?  I'll be off and running at this time there, or are there unexpected conflicts, you know?

    Question 2: If there are conflicts in the above statement I can just be best to install a new disk, use the original restore disks (XP Home) and keep the RAID?

    Please notify.

    Thank you

    Ethics

    ERICO,

    The system is P8656T #ABA.

    Yesterday as a test, I disconnected the low-level SATA disk and did a full recovery of the use of disks in the system.  A few mistakes RAID as planned, but some of the same things 'strange' occurred as before:

    (1) after connecting a drive hard external via USB in the front, the computer would recognize in my computer, then not, he would then not, as was the case a noise unique bell was noticeable again and again - very flakey.

    (2) system has been very slow execution of orders, close open windows

    (3) system would block

    (4) system would take 3-4 partial boots that I order for a start to the top completely.

    (5) computer at night: at initial start-up, she stopped and said a file was missing and hung, then Ihit and he continued the boot.

    I am currently NOW only test each other hard drive only, full recovery successfully and currently testing operations:

    (1) same problem with USB and external hard drive (ext drive works perfectly when connected to my laptop USB)

    Continue...

    It reminds you something in your experience? (ie. power supply possible problem maybe)

    Check if you can unplug it RAID.

    Thank you

  • Portege S100 - reinstall Windows XP using F6 and RAID drivers

    I have this announcement in the hope that it helps someone.

    Well my hard drive is dead, so got a replacement one. I'm not so innocently, I thought that, just down load the drivers from the website of the original dvd.
    So did all of this and the raid has yet to see! Changed the settins to raid in the bios that you get by pressing ESC, then the default values, restart and go back into bios goto page 3 - which is so visible. Make sure that the disc is set to1raid0 - download the manual, but you must agree to any change in typing 1234 when it asks for a string from the manual. Anyway did all that - still no visible drive - so which continues.

    Well apparently there are 2 sets of pilots kr10n and kr10i - that givesyou site is kr10n drivers. That may work for the most recent, but not mine! My laptop needs the kr10i which I can't find on the site tosiba. BUT http://download.cnet.com/raid-drv-20070719134547-zip/3000-18492_4-174094.html or you can google for raid-drv-20070719134547

    The steps for me were so use nlite to add the drivers of kr10i on a WinXP SP3 patched cd and start using that. It was work related.

    After that, everything went great! Well, I didn't have much hair initially, but even less after having finished the process.

    Good luck

  • Re: Satellite X 200-23 G and RAID

    Nice day!

    Note: Satellite x 200-23 G PSPBUE - 020011

    I saw in the discussions if there is not any brand of RAID in the BIOS and Instruction - the RAID is not present.
    But before buying, I checked that:
    HARD drive: 500 GB (5400 RPM), SATA, RAID

    This means that the RAID is present on board, or it means "may be present.

    Thank you

  • Qosmio G30-145: WinXP and RAID driver - no response

    I did everything that is needed for the installation of windows xp for Qosmio G30-145.

    Installation process is as a result: as in http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB56012H0001R01.htm and that worked, but during the installation of windows has started, you will be asked once more (first time I did format and second time that I did ' t format HARD drive): "INSERT THE DISK LABELLED"TOSHIBA RAID DRIVER"in the A: drive... "Press on enter when ready '- but no reaction... SOLUTION!

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    According to the Toshiba page suggested when installing Windows using to partition or format the HARD drive, the RAID driver is deleted in the process. This causes the shot the next time that the machine start-up.
    To avoid this, perform a partitioning and formatting before you run the manual installation of Windows.
    This behavior is not displayed during the installation of Windows XP with SP2 integrated

    Well, perhaps, you need a CD OS Win SP2 integrated?

    But why you do not use the recovery CD Toshiba delivered?
    On this CD, all drivers are preinstalled and you only need to install the OS from the recovery CD. All should work properly.

    PS: Just for the record: in the BIOS, you should find an option to disable (or change) the RAID.

  • Suggested Drive setup for new h8 - 1360t with SSD and Raid-1 array

    All,

    I need some advice on how to configure the drives in my new system (waiting for construction and delivery, sigh).

    I bought a plan to replace the 1 TB drive with a new drive SSD that I start from and H8 - 1360T (Win 7 Pro).

    I also have a Raid-1 array in an old HP 4999 T system (Vista) disks Western Digital Caviar Black 2x2TB

    By looking at the motherboard plug appear to be only SATA0/1 6 GB/s, the others are 3GBPS.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03132942

    I was a little surprised by that and need some advice.

    1. If I put the SSD on SATA0 or SATA1, the quickest way?

    2 or do I put the drives Raid-1 array and move the SSD to path of 3 Gbps?

    I think this last (option 2), but wanted to get your entry in case missed me something.

    Thank you
