• How to recover from the failure of a with ESXi USB flash drive?

  I have ESXi 5.5 running on a 16 GB USB flash drive.  The system itself has a RAID card and drives mirrored where all virtual machines are stored, so it seems to me that a critical point of weakness is the drive itself.  If die ESXi itself running flash player, is there a procedure to recover the virtual machines on the disks?  Or should I keep a backup of my drive as well?

  1. How to restore the operating system assuming that the flash drive fails? If I reinstalled ESXi on a new drive of the same thumb, would see the VMware VMs existing on the hard drives of the server? Or is the process of discovery of the relatively painless existing virtual machines?

  If your flash drive goes down, will not be a problem that you have your virtual machines without danger on the separate data store in the locally attached storage drives. all you got to do is to reinstall ESXi host, he will be happy to see the existing VMFS data store and browse this data store where are stored the re-save you and virtual machines in the inventory.

  See also changes following KB to make the backup of your ESXi as operating system configuration and when you change the configuration at the time of the failure of ESXi, you don't have to worry about re-configuarting it

  1. How can I maintain redundancy for my USB failure? Can I have two drives connected and automatically backup flash / mirror the first hard drive to the second?

  This is not possible (I never tried myself) If you use an external flash drive, but let's say that you have any material to the specific provider giving this feature as

  DELL IDSDM http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/poweredge-idsdm-whitepaper-en.pdf

  or another supplier giving a similar feature, then it is quite possible to mirror. Otherwise, the best option is take config. backup using KB, I mentioned in the first answer.

• ESXi 4.1 installed on a life issue, USB flash drive

  Hello

  I just installed a new server ESXi 4.1 on a (internal port) USB flash drive. I heard these flash drives USB gets used a lot of Scriptures; I do pay attention on the ESXi host to maximize the life of the USB? Maybe switch logs in a data store, if possible?

  Someone at - it information on how long will last my with ESXi USB flash drive?

  Thanks in advance!

  ... what I do pay attention on the ESXi host to maximize the life of the USB? Maybe switch logs in a data store, if possible?

  VMware optimizes access R/W if you install ESXi on a flash or SD drive. If I'm not mistaken, some changes are written only once in an hour. Depending on the size of the flash player, you can configure the location of the scratch partition (which is used for discharges of support etc.) to be on one of your data warehouses (HARD drive)

  Someone at - it information on how long will last my with ESXi USB flash drive?

  This depends mainly on the quality of the drive itself. Some providers (like Dell) offer models of server with two type of a RAID1 SD cards.

• Laptop HP 15-R084NG: is it possible to copy a HP recovery on another USB flash drive support?

  Hello.

  Just a few questions please:

  1. when I do only once "HP Recovery Media" to a USB key, I can then 'copy' and 'paste' on another USB flash drive as long as the 2nd flash player has sufficient capacity?

  The recovery still works well?

  I ask this question in case I have to change to another USB flash drive and I am aware I can only have a copy of the HP recovery.

  2. If this is the case, I then can also make a backup on a Western Digital external drive so that in case of malfunction of the USB flash drive, can I still transfer files to another USB flash drive?

  Thanks in advance for the answer.

  Best regards.

• I lost memory to the usb flash drive space, help me please.

  I formatted 2 gb usb flash drive, and now he has 247 MB of available space.
  in computer SCIENCE, I chose flash drive (E), then right-click on it and choose FORMAT.

  Hello

  1. What is the number of brand and model of the flash player?

  I suggest you plug the flash drive on another computer running on Windows 7 and check if the problem persists.

  You can try to format the drive falash using MS DOS and cehck if that helps.

  (a) click on the start menu

  (b) prompt to type in the start search bar (run as administrator command prompt)

  (c) type "format [drive letter]:" at the command prompt, replace "[drive letter]" by the letter of the drive you want to format.

  (d) then press the Enter"" key. Note that the drive letter must be followed by a colon - for example: "format c:".

  (e) support on 'Y' If you are prompted to confirm if you want to erase everything on the hard drive. Confirm that you want to continue. MS-DOS will start to reformat your hard disk and all data

  on the disc is erased.

  If the problem occurs on another computer as well, then the issue may be with the flash drive corrupted, in this case, you can get in touch with the manufacturer for assistance.

• Why does movement of files on a USB flash drive last so long?

  I don't know if this is a Windows problem, but when I move a lot of files/folders (no copy, but select, then drag, or cut and paste) a place on the USB to another place on the flash drive, it takes much longer than the same hard disk.

  What is a Windows problem or a problem of flash player?

  If Windows is somehow move the files into pieces on the hard drive, then moving them back to the flash drive, I could see that as being the reason, but this seems very inefficient. If Windows says just the flash drive to move files and it does itself, I wonder if it is an inefficiency in the flash drive (or formatting) or just the nature of how flash drives move some files.

  I don't know that you have understood my problem. I moved the files to the flash drive from one folder to another on the flash drive. When I move tons of files in a folder on the Windows Installer by car, no matter where the records are or the number of files/folders are moved, it usually happens instantly and occasionally perhaps takes a fraction of a second or two; I know it's simply by changing the index (do not physically move the files). With a USB flash drive, it takes seconds to minutes, depending on how much is moved, which is usually much less to install on the windows drive. It's because flash player must physically move the files on the disk, there is no index to put it as on a fixed drive.  In addition the only way to move is to copy in memory, and then write it to the new location.  This means that each overflow bit must go through the USB connection (which is thousands of times slower than SATA cable on the real hard disk), and since then he has to go twice (in and out), it is even half as slow as new.

  There is no transfer between the hard drive and the flash player I know.

  What this means for me, it is the index or take more time to rewrite, or files are actually moved. What I'm asking is if Windows is somehow data transfer (even if it's the index) drive flash disk, then moving them backwards, slowing things down. I think that even moving them by RAM would slow it down, but I'm not sure.  Also considers that the internal drive is cached. So even if a bit should be moved, Windows will just notice "Yes move this bit later."  The progress box says it completed instantly, but really uses lazy writeback just finish the job later.  That is why if you lose power to your computer, it corrupts the files got reported as fact, but were not actually written on the disc.  Flash drives do not use the lazy "write behind caching" because they never know when the user will disconnect unexpectedly, so that they take the slow lane and check writing all ended before they say the progress bar to advanced. 

  You can change this second element by setting your USB device to "best performance" in the device, as Manager below.  But I do not recommend because it cannot handle unplug you the reader more.

• The request cannot be performed because of the I/o device error when opening a USB flash drive

  Original title: USB Flash Drive issues

  So, I tried to open my flash drive on my Dell Inspiron 15 with Windows 8 today to make an assignment. But for some reason some it does not open. This is what appears when I try to open it. I've done many things that are supposed to solve the problem with the ports themselves, but nothing seems to work that makes me think that it is the actual flash player. I don't know what to do all that my University materials are there then I really need to work, or at least find a way to get at least most of my files. Thank you very much for the help in advance.

  Sorry for the late reply Jose. I appreciate your efforts to resolve the issue.

  This can occur because of one or more of the reasons below:
  1. the currently loaded USB driver has become corrupt or unstable.
  2. your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a key USB and Windows.
  3. Windows may miss other problems hardware or software updates.
  4. your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt.

  Check the disc on another computer flash memory to ensure that the issue is not with the device.

  You can try the methods below:
  Method 1: Uninstall, then reconnect the USB flash drive:
  This method solves the problems where the currently loaded USB driver has become corrupt or unstable.
  1. go in search for, type device manager in the search box
  2. click on Device Manager in the returned list.
  3. click on disk in the list of hardware drives
  4. right click on the USB with the question and click on uninstall.
  5. once the flash player is uninstalled, unplug it.
  6. wait 1 minute and then reconnect the USB flash drive. The driver should load automatically.
  7. look for the USB key in Windows Explorer

  Method 2: Reinstall the USB controllers.
  This method addresses the steps where the USB driver currently loaded became unstable or corrupted.
  1. click on start, type device manager in the start search box, and then click Device Manager.
  2. expand Bus USB controllers. Right click on a device, and then click on uninstall. Repeat for each device.
  3. Once complete, restart your computer. Your USB controllers will automatically install.

  I hope this helps to solve the issue. If you still have the same problem, get back to us.

• WiFi connectivity weird when I plug in the USB Flash drive?

  I found this WiFi connection problem a few days ago, when I plugged a USB Flash drive in "USB port right side' of my MacBook Pro.

  Every time when USB , WiFi won't work - the connection is lost and can not connect to any hotspot even turn the WiFi market.

  I found more weird, ONLY this brand and model key USB could be the abnormal Mac WiFi.

  

  This problem will not happen to another USB port even I put the Flash drive in the left side, USB port, weird isn't?

  Conclusion, this flash drive cannot be used with USB port on the RIGHT side, another USB port works fine. If WiFi don't work.

  All other USB devices I've owned are working very well on the USB ports on the right or left side.

  Could Apple support or any helps me to understand why this happen?

  PS. I had the Apple's Diagnostics and received a message "no problem found".

  PS #2. Right - same USB port side and next to the HDMI port on MacBook Pro 13 "model 2015" (snack for someone who confuse average left or right)

• Some USB flash drives REFUSE to work in this 40TL963B

  Hi all. I recently bought a new 40TL963B and so far I have found nothing wrong with her.

  Except that... when I listen to it all the Satellite channels, I noticed thay were very different from my FreeSat box. Duplicate the layers, randomly arrested... etc. It made me want to not use the built-in satellite feature.

  However, I found a program called ToshibaEdit which allowed me to manually change all the digital channels on the TV. Grand... I though. Until I met this problem-->

  Inorder to change the ads, you must copy the TV channels on a USB flash drive, you can edit them on your PC. Now, it took me AN HOUR to do, because of two flash readers I used, none of them worked... I kept getting a "Write Fail" error. WTF?

  The disks are formatted in FAT32, one is a 8 GB is 2 GB.

  Finally, I tried an external 2.5 "USB 120 GB hard drive. Even if the disc is defective... This WORKER. I expect flash drives to work, to be honest, but all of them... the external USB hard drive worked.

  In any case, I spent another hour sort channels, until I was ready to transfer the data back. And. Yes... the same problem. This time, I received an error "failed to read". Again, tried the external USB HDD... worked the first time.

  Now, this HARD drive is faulty, so he'll be thrown... so I'm going to need a flash player to do it again if something happens.

  And then... can ANYONE tell me why on Earth two appropriate, fully working almost brand new USB flash drives REFUSE to work in this TV, but a former, fairly well defective USB external drive MADE? In addition, the same flash drive that I tried to copy the data from digital channel with was also used for a backup of the Firmware... and it WORKED perfectly. It works also for use with the media player.

  While this TV has a hatred of Flash drives all of a sudden?
  Anyone can shed some light on this?

  In addition, very quickly, TV seems to lose its TV settings every time that I bring the TV out of Eve. I'm going to the TV Dynamic and adjust all the settings, but he returned to AutoView and all settings back to 0. Is it a fault or is there something I need to do to 'save' the settings per channel?

  Any help at all will be appreciated greatly.

  Hello

  > And then... can ANYONE tell me why on Earth two appropriate, fully working almost brand new USB flash drives REFUSE to work in this TV, but a former, fairly well defective USB external drive MADE?

  AFAIK the 40TL963B TV supports a common HS USB 2.0 interface and memory flash can be formatted in FAT16 or FAT32 file system. So there is no specific requirement for USB flash memory

  My laptop TOSHIBA NB 100 has no CD-DVD player.
  Operating system is Windows XP Home SP2.

  Operating system won't start.

  Laptop start not at all so I can't run any kind of test when I turn it on.

  The thank you screen come on it says launch safe mode, the networking of safe mode, safe mode comand prompt or start windows normally. But no matter who I chose, that it does not start it only goes to Windows and looks like its starts but then shows the blue Windows screen & stays there.

  So I want to reload Windows from my USB flash drive.

  Will this work? The laptop will use the Windows CD in the drive of the laptop to load the operating system?
  How to make this connection?

  Hello

  You usually have an external USB CD/DVD drive to boot from the Windows XP disc or the Toshiba recovery disc.

  But there is a method that allows you to install Win XP using the 2 GB USB key.
  This is possible because the NB100 BIOS supports booting from USB key.

• Ultrabook HP 4 t-1100 - hard drives defective - No. DVD player - made HP sells recovery USB flash drives?

  Hello

  I am repairing a laptop HP Touchsmart Ultrabook 4 t-1100 for a friend. The pc wouldn't start. BSOD, would try to repair itself, then BSOD again. I ran the hard drive from the bios test. He said that the hard drive has failed. I bought a new drive hard Western Digital 7mm Blue, replaced the wrong drive, has passed the test to drive hard and then asked my friend if she had the Windows 8 recovery disc or a flash supplied with the computer player.

  Apparently, the recovery discs are not included with Ultrabooks, nor are a recovery flash drive. Being that this computer has been for a schoolgirl teenager, given to him by his mother of the computer-illiterate, nor had the foresight to do a restore of backup USB flash drive. All Ultrabooks do not have a reader of CD/DVD/BLU, so a USB recovery "disk" is necessary.

  I don't have another computer to Windows 8 lying autour to make a USB recovery. Some people sell images of USB recovery on eBay, but they don't seem very good reputation.

  And apparently they do not put the product key of Windows 8 on the bottom of portable computers more either! HP offers to sell a "recovery disc" through their section of the support of their website, but it is obviously not a DVD player to put it in.

  Here's my quandry: If I buy the "recovery disk" HP, they will send me a DVD or a USB FlashDrive with a system image on it? And if they send me DVD, I'll be able to put it in a computer Windows 7 and make a bootable system image that then I could put it on a USB key? Then, Windows will automatically find the product key?

  Hello:

  When I click on the link below, I see an option to order a recovery media USB for this model.
