  Hey Suman,

  You can change the configuration of the jumpers to make the slave hard drive. If you are not sufficiently uncomfortable by doing that, then you can get in touch with the local Techshop to do the same.

  I get this message at startup ' 3rd Master Hard Disk:S.M.A.R.T. bad condition. " -What this means and how can I solve this problem?

  SMART is a technology on newer computers that allows the computer to monitor the health of hard drives in your computer. Something happened to one of your readers that detects the smart as a problem, and she's trying to warn you proactively to this topic before it fails.

  It may be also that you have installed a very old hard drive that does not support the CHIP and the monitor reports that it can not read the drive status.

  So depending on your level of knowledge and experience, you can watch to replace the hard disk that is reported, or you can disable SMART followed to make the message disappears. The second option but then means if it is really a failure, it is likely any work stoppage or corrupted so data you do note to solve.

• Satellite L350 - persistent master hard drive errors

  I've known persistent main hard disk errors. Errors, in their first incarnation, were windows freeze at loading screens and screensavers, and then developed by stopping Windows to boot at all. It certainly would not start normally and sometimes would not start in safe mode. I used the recovery partition to restore the computer to its factory settings. A day or two later, the same symptoms began to manifest again, although not as severely. The hard drive errors, freeze on screens and loading screen savers.

  My question is: if I re - format the hard drive master, thus destroying the recovery partition, I could then just restore windows from a newly formed recovery CD? And, in addition, what is the probability that reformatting the drive hard completely would have an effect on the frequency of errors?
  If the hard drive is simply borked, format or not? And if yes, what is the next step?
  Could I restore windows on my drive hard slave and give up on the master?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey Buddy,

  Are you sure that all these problems related to the HARD drive at 100%? How did you check that?

  I don t mean it s not the HARD drive, theoretically, you could be right but before you think to change the HARD drive please use a diagnostic tool special for HDD as Drive Fitness Test:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/support/downloads/#DFT

  This tool can check your HARD drive for bad sectors.

  If the HARD features of bad sectors disk, formatting will not help you because the sectors are physically damaged. With other words, the only chance is to exchange it.

  But if you have already used the recovery feature of HARD Toshiba drive to reinstall Windows you can say s that no problem of software and it must be hardware related. ;)

• ? Primary Master Hard Disk S.M.A.R.T. Bad Status. WARNING: Return immediately-up your data and replace your hard drive.

  When I start my computer, an error page appears. At the bottom of the page it says, "Primary Master Hard Disk S.M.A.R.T. Status Bad." WARNING: Return immediately-up your data and replace your hard drive. Press F1 for Setup, F2 to continue"I was just pressing F2 and then it starts normally, but whenever I start my computer, the same page comes up.

  Is this serious or it could be something minor? Do you have any suggestions? What does that mean? What should I do? I followed some information in the forums of someone who has had the same problem and finally, they fixed them, they said that when they made a prior microsoft update what they where missing a Parcer.

  Note: I tried to save my data before, but something goes wrong and the backup will not be completed.

  You can download the program for diagnotics HUtil Samsung http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/support/downloads/Hutil210_iso_for_CDROM_drive.zip

  It's an ISO image then unzip the file and write the ISO image to a CD.

  Then restart the PC and booting with the CD. To do this, you must change the priority/boot order in the BIOS to boot from the CD first.

  Once you have started the program HUtil it will detect your hard drive Samsung. Select the hard disk.

  Enter the main Menu on the tool. Go into the menu of the tool and enter Auto diagnosis. Enable diagnostics to run, once done it will ask you if you want to perform a surface analysis - enter Yes. The analysis of surface will take some time to complete. If errors are found, it reported.

  Once more I recommend you backup your data as soon as possible, preferably before executing HUtil program.

  For more information on the program of HUtil you can go here: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/support/utilities/Support_HUTIL.html

  Write when the cache is enabled: when data are written back to the hard drive, it is written in the cache that is much faster to actually write to the hard drive. An acknowledgement of receipt is then sent by saying that the data has been written on the hard disk, when in fact it does not. In this way so that the data is actually being written to the hard drive to the rest of the system can continue to work. However memory cache is volatile, if the power goes off, the data in the cache is destroyed and if it has not been written to disk hard and yet he's lost.

  If your settings are correct. Usually the drives are configured for performance and the write cache is enabled. While flash drives and memory cards are configured for the fast-moving and write cache is disabled.

  The HARD disk rotates upward?

  Try resetting the BIOS to default settings.

  Other than that, I think that it's not just you can do except send the laptop to a repair center.

• SMART Hard Disk Error - replace hard disk?

  A couple of days, I got an error when I start my computer (HP Pavilion dv6-6071eo), saying "SMART hard disk error" followed by a message telling me that SMART disk check has detected and imminent failure. He told me to my backup files, and then press F2 and do a hard drive test. On the last row, it displays "Hard Disk 1 (301).

  I tried to run the hard drive test, which does not instantly. I also ran the BIOS hard drive test. It meets the short test without problem and then stopped quite some time after the long trial began with the error "Disk Hard 1 full 305. My computer has also been slow over the last week.

  From what I've read so far, it seems that I need to replace my hard drive. Is this correct? If so, it would be a suitable replacement (functional): http://www.dustinhome.se/product/5010151237/western-digital-black-2-5-320gb-7200rpm-sata-300-16mb/#i.... Also, would it not interesting (and possible) upgrade to an SSD for reduction of noise and heat, which is a problem with this laptop (and several other portable simular at HP) compared to other laptops.

  In addition, it might be good to mention that my warranty has expired.

  Have you checked to see if there is a free space left on the hard drive? A complete hard drive will make the system work very slowly and it may also keep the system working properly if it is fairly comprehensive. The fact that you take the short test means that there is nothing major to mechanically wrong with the drive. Just right-click on the icon for the main C:\ drive likely "computer: and select 'Properties'.» If the disc is not actually full, then I suggest to replace. If you can afford a SSD, Yes, there is no doubt that is the way to go. There is nothing wrong on one ssd, other than an occasional fight to install it. I have been using SSD for awhile and I had installation problems we often see reported here, but do not be discouraged, we are here to help.

• Smart hard disk error: "Press enter to continue and it starts OK.

  I have run chkdsk full and sometimes without error, but at startup it says Smart hard disk error. Press ENTER to continue and it starts OK

  Go into the BIOS and run the drive Diagnostics (long version).

  Normally, when you get a SMART disk error this means imminent disk failure.  Smart drive test checks the environment of hard disk and is much more than chkdsk thorugh.

  A cautious soul would replace the disc if the diagnostic test is a failure.

  Is your laptop still under warranty?

• SMART hard disk error message

  I have a Pavilion dv4-2045dx and I got the "SMART hard disk error" message since last night after my daughter felt my cell phone and I had a Crash report screen. Let him sit in the hope it to cool and start as expected. No luck...

  I already looked for several responses to the problem, but always returned empty-handed. I did the hard reset and I checked everything in the Diagnostices system only to control memory and battery by the way. I have not yet contacted HP about this. If I can fix it myself, I would rather to do.

  Anyone know of a way I can fix this WITHOUT having to buy a new hard drive?

  Thank you very much

  Sorry to bring bad news, but... If you have a SMART hard disk error then the drive is toast. There is no way around that.

  The INTELLIGENT notification system gives you a report that the BIOS sees when it queries the hard disk during the Power On Self Test, he always does before the start in the Windows operating system.

  I hope that you have created a set of HP recovery cd. If you did, then you still have your operating system intact. If you do not, you can buy a replacement of HP recovery disk. They are inexpensive.

• SMART hard disk error (301)

  I WANT m6-1120sw my friend. When I turn it on it shows SMART drive hard error, said diagnosis: "SMART Check: NOT AVAILABLE, short DST: caution. His old HDD, I replaced it with a new one, but nothing has changed. -What would be a problem with the SATA controller on the motherboard or is it something different?

  Hello
  
  Smart disk error indicates failure of hard drive. You still get any ID failure?
  
  Since you have already replaced it & not showing is not available, the probability is for the connection by defective SATA cable or SATA controllers or motherboard itself.
  What of all the other disk hard test - wide?
  
  Try HD Tune Pro software currently running on the system.
  
  You may have to contact HP for repair.

• Satellite C660 - 23 M Windows 7 hard disk error

  I've only had my laptop (Satellite C660 - 23M) for three months, I started to have problems with him about a week earlier, including a time Blue Screen of Death, but I got the computer Safe Mode and did a system restored and it has been fine since then. Then earlier today, I had a Windows hard drive error, telling me to back-up and then repair or replace the hard drive. The back-up goes on an external hard drive as we speak, so fingers crosssed I can't stand to lose all my data.

  I created a disk backup media when I got to the laptop but every time I tried with validation, it would fail, but in time, I don't think I should be so little time, just so created a non-validated copy and thought that would be nice (I'm now concerned!).

  Should I restore my hard drive? If so, how? What has caused this? And because it is only 3 months old, am I stuck with a laptop to duff who will continue to break down on me?

  Hello

  In your case, I would recommend to check the capacity of the HARD drive.
  This can be done using the freeware tool called disk HARD Drive Fitness Utility.
  I guess that this software can help detect HARD drive errors.

  If the HARD drive would be affected, then you need to replace the HARD drive.
  Here you will find a nice instruction how to do this:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=138

  the laptop seems to be covered by the warranty, if the HARD drive can be replaced under term average conditions, this can be done free of charge
  I would recommend asking the ASP (partner in your country) for this HARD drive they could send you this HDD.

• HP 23-g116 5CM44802Q5: smart hard disk error

  I just started to have an error...  Error Smart hard drive on my desktop and it has only 1 year.  What could be the problem.  y at - it an easy fix?  May not have a hard drive problem, it is not used every day.

  Hi katcopass,

  That looks like you have a hard disk failure. To make sure that we should launch a hard drive diagnostic.

  To access the menu diagnostic you want to start typing the ESC key as soon as you turn the unit on and it should bring you to the start menu. Press F2 it and it will bring you to the diagnosis.

  If the diagnostic fails, it should give you a failure ID 24 characters; in this case, you want to exactly copy down and call customer service. According to the model, there are three main numbers:

  • For the home and specific products, dial + 1 800 474 6836 (e.g. ENVY, Pavilion, lines of spectrum)
  • For the company's products, please call + 1 800 334 5144 (e.g. Prodesk, Probook, Pro tablet lines)
  • For Elite Business Products, call + 1 866 625 1175 (Elitedesk, Elitebook lines Elitepad)

  You will need to provide the following information to the representative answering:

  • Serial number
  • Product number
  • ID failure of 24 characters

  Thank you!
