• You can mix SAS and SATA drives in a RAID 1 PowerEdge T110 II configuration

  Hello

  I have a RAID 1 configuration and one of the two drives in the array has failed.  I've removed and replaced by another drive hoping the Dell Perc adapter H200 would rebuild the mirror automatically, but it does not.  In Server Admin OpenManage virtual disk displays as degraded.  The issue I think may be the replacement drive is SATA where the original was SAS.

  Is there a way you can make the adapter accepts a SATA drive or is it simply not supported?

  SIV

  Hello.

  Dell controllers, including the H200 are not supported mixing SAS, SATA or SSD in the same table. They may, however, each separately constitute a virtual disk on the same controller. Consider replacing the disk failing another identical or higher capacity SAS drive.

• Parameters to win 8 and SSD drive

  Just bought a h9 - 1440t with windows 8 pro and an SSD.

  Can you tell me:

  1 - is the motherboard SATA 2 or SATA 3?

  2. are there additional parameters I should do to ensure the best performance of the SSD drive?

  I was led to believe that I had to disable indexing and to put all temporary files on the secondary drive which I use for data.

  Thank you

  eddiel66

  Hey eddiel,.

  The majority of our units produced since Feb 12 will use SATA3

  And Yes, to disable indexing and assigning temporary files (and other files from storage) to your secondary drive would be wise.

  Hacker life also has a great article on SSD found HERE.

  Feel free to respond if you need any additional information

• Qosmio G50 - 10I and SSD drive

  Hello

  Have someone put the new disc SSD on his laptop computer for us say his impressions?

  Hey,.

  > Thw question is what is happening with vista?
  What should happen with Vista? I put t understand what you mean.

  Vista can be installed on the SSD so because it works like a normal HARD drive, but read the instructions of your SSD as Akuma has written because you shouldn't t defragment.

• Windows 8 and SSD drive

  Hello! A year ago I bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Z580 with 8 Windows preinstalled. My question is this:

  you want to upgrade my hardware to replace my current hard drive with a Solid State Disk. The problem is that in windows 8 there is not any program except the OneKey Recovery, obviously it is not asking the official recovery of Microsoft (including Windows 7). If I create a disk with OneKey then is it possible to use it to install windows on the new SSD 8? The pc will recognize a backup disk created by an application that is not installed on it?

  You can do this way:

  Replace the hard drive with sshd, then starts with the drive flash usb partition creator site Evozi. Once you have created partitions replace the sshd with the existing hard drive and start the machine. Use a hard drive with the sshd adapter so that you can copy the files from backup recovery D:Lenovo\Lenovo\OneKey App\OneKey okr. Lenovo file is hidden so you may need to turn on hidden files in the folder of the control panel option. Again, replace the hard drive with the sshd. Press the button of novo for a restore okr.

  Note: Each time you turn on the hard drive and sshd, the computer must be stopped. A bracelet of gounding should be used.

• Mix SAS HDD with SATA SSD's in RAID

  Hello

  On what level is this possible?

  Can I mix SATA and SAS disks on the controller RAID (PERC H710), group or virtual disk level? Server PowerEdge R720.

  I want to be is:

  PERC controller:

  -2 SAS HDD in RAID 1 connectors (for the operating system)

  -2 SATA SSD's in RAID 1 (logs)

  -HARD drive SAS 6 in RAID 10 (to the database)

  Whether in separate RAID groups?

  Can I combine SATA and SAS in a RAID group, virtual disk or only on the level of controller?

  All my drives won't be visible in Windows, if it is SATA or SAS?

  Thank you!

  Vellemannv,

  The configuration of the Perc controller you would be perfect. You can mix SAS and SATA drives on the controller, it can handle both. You have SAS bays and bays this SATA on the same controller. You can NOT have SAS and SATA disks present in the SAME table, however.

  The OS will see the different virtual drives as well.

  Let me know if it helps.

• Disks hard SAS and SATA in mixture with controller H730 R730

  I try to set up a new server for our SMEs and wanted to know if I could use say hard 2 SAS drives in raid 1 configuration for hyper-v (r2 2012) host then use 6-2 TB of SATA drives in pass-through mode for use with storage for 2 VMs.

  Bobc007,

  The rule with the help of SAS and SATA drives is that you CAN mix the two in the same controller. You not CAN NOT mix SAS and SATA in the same virtual disks well. The configuration you are looking for is a supported configuration.

  Let me know if this helps answer your questions.

• SAS/SATA mixed pool and initial data placement

  Assuming that I have a mixed pool of SAS and SATA drives, where new written land?  My concern is that Scripture arrive on SAS and SATA also and then over time the SATA data would be transferred to SAS has high performance and data on SAS are cold it shifts to SATA.

  I'm leaning toward a configuration that initially all written in SAS assuming it must be efficient and then over time, move down to SATA.  It seems that this is possible.

  I am looking for clarification and perhaps a document that could help me understand how to set up my table for everythying lands on fast and down to slow down over time.

  It does not work like that.    When you have several members in the same pool, the data is distributed across members in proportion to their relative sizes.   So more data on the volume will reside on the SATA member since he will be probably larger disks.   This is especially true is the SAS is R10 and SATA R50/R6.   Which is pretty common.

  In the 5.2.x, firmware if berries are very busy most of the time, the balancer will swap blocks filled with blocks of idle until they members have better balanced latency.  Short term transitional IO load balancer will only be active often.

  You can set preferences RAID in volume, if the members are at different levels.

  You can bind a volume to a member of the one.

  However, the best thing is to start with the group with SANHQ monitor.  This will help you find what type of i/o load you put on the group.   In addition, if you open a support account sometimes this data is also valuable to support.

• Portege R830 - 111 BIOS can not find the SSD drive

  Hello
  Four days ago, I bought R830-111 [PT320E-00X00XPL] and a - DATA S599 2.5 "SATA II Solid State Drive 128 GB to replace the standard HARD disk drive. Unfortunately, the new SSD drive does not work with this laptop.

  Several times, after several reboots disc was visible in the BIOS.
  But there is not the possibility of a normal use of the SSD.
  I have day laptop BIOS [BIOS360_EC140_WIN] and SSD drive. That did not help.

  Can someone help and tell me how to work this SSD ADATA and Portege?

  Best regards

  Have you checked if the SSD drive needs a firmware update?
  In some cases, this is necessary, but in the worst cases, the SSD drive might not be compatible and this means that you need to test another :(

• How to re - combine a HD and SSD in a player of "Fusion".

  Hi all

  Well, this process has floored me know how much time lost, he created and how the problem occurred in the first place.

  I am wanting to do a clean install of El Capitan on iMac late 2014 retina with El Capitan with a 1 TB drive merger 10.11.6.

  Boot from an external hard drive with OS X utility disk 10.11.4, wouldn't let me simple deletion of the reader. He came up with the error message "removing logical volume of the logical volume group cannot delete the storage base logical volume...". »

  So I started to investigate this problem and found:

  estorage-logical-volume-from-the-Terminal http://Apple.StackExchange.com/questions/136590/How-can-i-Delete-a-partition-Cor

  Who publishes various other forum known as the best solution to the problem. Knowing that I hate to use the terminal, I dove in full anyway. I was reformatting disks on Mac for 20 years without needing terminals?

  I got so far as to remove the existing with logical group:

  sudo diskutil cs deleteLVG

  and now the HD and SSD drives appear on the desktop as a empty volumes (which is fine, I don't need to save anything).

  But now, try to use the:

  sudo diskutil mergePartitions HFS+ "Apple_HFS Macintosh HD" (and different combinations of drive locations)

  results only in "the data partitions are not of the same disc.

  This is what I see with the "diskutil list; ECHO; Cs diskutil list "command in terminal.

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  3: disk3s3 Apple_Boot Recovery 650.0 MB HD

  I have no idea how recombine the separate HD and SSD drives in one drive of Fusion, with which I can then do a clean installation of El Capitan. Can someone please!

  Also, how can quickly and safely erase a disc from Fusion in the future? I need to deploy a new image of master with all our software top one another 10 times, and I want to completely erase the readers for clean installs (with Migration Assistant for about 8 years, moving from a system has resulted in a lot of weird and wacky behaviour on our Macs) and it is time for a clean install for each of them.

  Again, I'd be very happy any help on this.

  Please read this message before doing anything. If you don't feel confident that you can follow the instructions, ask someone more experienced to help you.

  This procedure applies only to an iMac or a Mac mini with a drive installed in the smelter.

  You must read these instructions while no web browser is running, so either print them or load them onto another device before you start.

  1. all the data on the internal disks will be deleted, including Boot Camp data, which are not saved by Time Machine. You need at least two complete and independent backups. A backup is not enough to be sure. There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  2. you will need to start one recovery system other than the one on the internal hard drive (if he has one.) There are several ways to do so.

  a. If you have a backup time of the Machine (not a network backup), or a compatible Mac OS X installation on an external drive, then you should be able to start it by holding down press option key to start ringing. Select the external hard drive in the row of icons that is displayed. I mean by "compatible", an installation running on the machine. A version of Mac OS X that is older than the machine is not compatible.

  b. If you used Recovery Disk Wizard (or can use it now) to prepare a system recovery on a USB flash drive, you can start that by pressing the C button on the ring. No icons will appear. Startup will be much slower than usual.

  c. start the Internet recovery mode by pressing the key combination command-option-R to start ringing. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe. Select a language, if you are prompted.

  Note: You need an Ethernet or Wi - Fi connection to Internet to use the features of recovery network. It will not work with modems USB or PPPoE, proxy servers or networks that require a certificate for authentication.

  3. disconnect all other external storage devices.

  What happens then depends on what version of recovery that you are running.

  ☞ If the machine came with OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), 10.9 ("Swat") or 10.8 ("Mountain Lion"), and you're in the recovery of the Internet, please take step 4a and skip step 4 b.

  ☞ otherwise, go to step 4 and go to step 4B.

  If you are unsure which version of Mac OS X, the machine came with, search for it on this page.

  After taking these steps apply, you must have a reader of empty Fusion named 'Macintosh HD' on which you can perform a 7 step or step 7B.

  4. repair of the Fusion drive (see "Troubleshooting" on the linked page.) Quit disk utility and go to step 7A or 7B step. Skip steps 4, 5 and 6.

  4. in the OS X screen utility, select get online help. Safari will launch. While in recovery, you will have no access to your Favorites, but you won't need them. Load this web page.

  5. triple - click anywhere in the line below to select this option:

  N=Macintosh\ HD; for d in /dev/disk?; do o=`diskutil info $d`; for D in SSD HDD; do eval [[ ! \"\$$D\" ]] && grep -lqw "APPLE $D" <<< "$o" && eval $D=$d; done; [[ "$SSD" && "$HDD" ]] && break; done; diskutil cs create "$N" $SSD $HDD && diskutil cs createLV "$N" jhfs+ "$N" 100%

  It is a very long line, and you won't see it on the web page. Be sure to select the entire line, not just the part that you can see.

  Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

  Quit Safari. You go back to the OS X Utilities screen.

  6. in the menu bar, select

  Utilities ▹ Terminal

  Launch the Terminal application. Paste in the Terminal window by pressing the command-V key combination. Wait for a new line ending with a number sign (#) to appear. If nothing happens, press the return key.

  Quit the Terminal must be returned to the main screen.

  7. If you have a Time Machine backup, connect the device to backup and restore your data. If you have saved to a network like a time Capsule device, it must be connected automatically.

  7B. If you do not have a Time Machine backup, or if you can not restore from Time Machine backup that you do not have, install OS x Restore data later in The Migration Wizard.

  In the Internet recovery mode, you install the original version of Mac OS X comes with the machine. If you have upgraded the operating system on the App Store, you will need to do it again.

• laptop Pavilion dv6 1030 ca: hard to change disk SSD drive

  Hi, I would like to know that if I can change the current HDD with a SSD of Kingston 480 GB seria ata (sata) drive, my personal opinion is that I can, but I would like a confirmation of my hypothesis. Canord

  Yes, you should be able to install and SSD drive in place of the built-in SATA HDD.

• HP 15 Notebook PC: HARD SSD drive, and can my laptops support more ram

  Product name: HP 15 laptop

  Product number: K6C60EA #ABU

  8.1 Windows 64-bit

  I have a 1 TB 5400 rpm HDD Samsung and 8 DDR3L RAM.

  I want to change this (HDD) for a

  Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5 "SSD

  Is that a good choice, my budget is less than £80.

  Also can I have an upgrade of RAM, my processor States the max is 8 GB, but I saw some processor be able to handle more than its limit.

  Here is a link to the service manual for your model, the 15-r160sa:

  Manual

  Study this carefully. See p. 59. In order to access the hard drive, you must remove the entire cover. There is no easy access panel. You want to endanger the guarantee, but yes, the hard drive can be replaced with an SSD and that you have chosen is in my opinion, the best on the market.

  With respect to memory, your laptop uses the Intel® Pentium® N3540, which is a "Bay Trail" processor. This means a few things. First of all, see page 2 of the Manual:

  1 or 2 customer accessible/upgradable memory module slots (depending on model) 2 slots: DDR3L - 1600 MHz Dual Channel Support (Core processors) 1 location: DDR3 1333 MHz Dual Channel Support (DDR3L 1600 retrograde to the DDR3-1333) (Trail Bay processors)

  So there is a slot of memory in your laptop and most it can take is 8 GB. Also, the memory is still harder to get than the hard drive. demanding the withdrawal of the motherboard.

  Please post back with any additional questions.

  Thus,.

  1. can I mix 6 Gbps and 12 Gbps SAS HDD in my R350 Server?

  2. If it is possible to do, I owe nothing to rebuild my RAID?

  For your information, I use RAID-5. My RAID controller is H730

  Help, please. Thank you.

  You can make use of the re - configure feature of the PERC H730 expand RAID 5. While in OMSA, go in->-> PERC H730-> virtual disks and storage under available tasks drop-down list, select reconfigure and Execute. See the schematic illustration below:

• Windows can handle a disc SSD and HDD together? Is it better to install Windows on the SSD drive?

  Can Windows take the advantages of Solid State Drives and hard drives and know where to write or suggest?

  Is it better to put Windows on a SSD and programs like word and save files on hard drive?  Also maybe windows might do a B/H on the HD.

  I think that that's where computers go.  Either all SSDS like Mac book air or a hybrid of the two and is ready for her Windows or do we wait for an update to Windows 7 or Windows 8?

  You need at least a 60 GB SSD (or more) to install Windows on. The traditional hard drive can be used to store data files.
