Capacity of the hard disk for NX9030

Hello

I have a laptop HP Compaq NX9030. The hard disk starts to show errors so I intend to replace it. Does anyone know if the laptop has a limited capacity for replacement hard drives?

Thank you

Dave

You have the Intel 855 chipset. In order to launch a hard drive larger than 137 GB, you need help for 48-bit Large Block Addressing in the chipset, BIOS and operating system. I find contradictory information on the ability of the chipset 855 doing of 48bits LBA. I also wonder if ever taken HP worth of produce a BIOS that would make 48 bit LBA in this model being the biggest hard drive offered 60 gigs. In other words, I think you should assume 120 GB is size max hard drive you can use and the only way I can think to prove otherwise is to buy the largest disk and install it. Windows XP Sp1a and superior does not large drives.

  • Increase the capacity of the hard disk for VM

    Hello

    I use ESX 4.0 with vSphere 4.0.

    When there is no snapshots more I would like to increase the capacity of the hard disk of the virtual machine in the menu to change settings / Hard disk. There is MS Windows Srv 2008 R2 64-bit installed.

    What is the right way to do it? Operating system, there is no problem with this increased disc? Primary partition will automatically increase as or what I have to do it myself later?

    There should not be problems with the guest operating system when you increase the size of the virtual disk. After the increase in size in the settings of the virtual machine, you need to resize the NTFS partition in the VM Windows 2008 disk management.

    ·        Did you do a clean install of Windows Vista without formatting?

    ·        How many letters pilot are there on the system, for example C:\, D:\?

    ·        The number of records your C:\ drive?

    Open C:\ drive and select all the files that are present and check what size is (of all files). Let us know the size.

    If you did a clean installation without formatting then, it may be a folder named windows.old. If you have the folder on the system, then follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

  • Capacity of the hard disk on the Qosmio G20-139

    I recently bought the notebook of Toshiba Qosmio g20-139, announced as having an 80 GB hard drive. Check the properties of the drive C: I think capacity is 69.8 GB. And in the properties of the device, it gives the Volume 71547 MB (I presume it's 71,547 GB).

    Does anyone can ease my mind explaining to me why I have not been 'ripped off '?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I'm not 100% sure but I think this part of the HARD disk is not partitioned and it comes preinstalled Qosmioplayer. This player doesn't need all the space, but if recording on this drive is available, I presume that this registered program is also recorded on this unpartitioned part.

  • access all information on the hard disk for all users.

    I tried to set up a link today from my new laptop computer Windows 7 my most top of desktop running vista.  The liaison program stated that the administrator on my old computer was only a temporary user.  I tried to set up the account as a permanent user without realizing that it would replace the current account.  I have now no access to programs from hard drive of the main user I was using.  I was wondering if there is anything I can do to access the hard disk with this user and import files?  I forgot almost all programs appear on the computer but open to anything.

    Hi kismet.

    1. What do you mean by link program?

    2. What have you tried to do?

    3. how many accounts do you currently on the computer and what are they?

    4. what happens when you try to access the files on the hard drive?

    It seems that you do not have permissions to access the files on the hard drive.

    I suggest that take you the files and folder try to access.

    To take ownership of a folder

    (a) right click on the folder you want to take control and then click Properties.

    (b) click on the Security tab, click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.

    (c) click on Edit. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    (d) click on the name of the person you want to give to the property.

    (e) If you want that person to be the owner of the files and subfolders in this folder, select the check box Replace owner subcontainers and objects .

    (f) click OK.

  • Try to migrate from the hard disk for ssd drive

    Hello, 4 days ago I bought dell inspiron with windows 8.1 5748 and a 1 TB hard drive.

    I also bought samsung 250 GB of ssd drive 840EVO to replace the disk of 1 TB of the laptop. I cloned the HARD disk drive and restored the image in the ssd drive and when I mounted the SDS disc and shot to the top of the laptop I got an error that it cannot detect a drive... Press F2 to enter setup F5 for diagnostics and F1 to reboot.

    First I made sure to rise properly. After I checked I entered the bios where I noticed that the drive is recognized in the details of the system. The model was correct, the capasity as well. Fashion was ahci.

    I ran the diagnostics and they couldn't locate a drive.

    So, is this an incompatibility? I checked for updates to the bios and I see I m to date on that. The player is surelly ok as I have tested on another pc...

    What can I do?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Add1ctiv3,

    We recommend that you use the recovery disks that are you ready when you got your system to restore the image of the original on the SSD hard drive. Since they have the same size, it should work without problem.

  • Inspiron N5050 shows the capacity of the hard disk bad

    I put a new 1 TB HDD in my Inspiron N5050 to replace the 500 GB one. I moved all my content on the new hard drive using the disk image and repair system I did of the old hard drive. Now when I go to "computer" it always shows the hard disk of 500 GB (actually 468) not the 1 TB hard drive. How to make the computer recognize the appropriate hard drive capacity? Sorry if I posted in the wrong place, I didn't know where to put this post because he could be in several places.

    I found the answer to my question on YouTube (of all places). I have now 1 operation section entirely on my hard drive (no unallocated space). I should have done a little more research before posting here, but thank you Dell community with his presence. PROBLEM SOLVED!

  • Maximum size of the hard disk for Pavilion a800n

    Hello

    One last question, I replace the hard drive (160G) in my old Pavilion a800n and wonder what would be the size (well at least 500G) max. Guess I could partition if necessary...

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Sorry, based on the following specifications, I would not be to HARD disk. If you need more space for data/files, buy an external HARD drive.

  • Replacement of the hard disk for Equium A60-155

    I need to replace the hard drive in my equium A60-155. I need to know what is compatible with this model and if the brand of the drive is important in compatibility. For example should be a drive hard toshiba or is it possible to others.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    You n t need to install a HDD in particular of Toshiba. You can also use disk of another company.

    It is important that you use a HARD drive with support for hardware specifications.

    I found these useful discussions on the replacement of the HDD on the Satellite and Equium A60:

    Satellite A60 is very similar to the A60 Equium and so the two series use the same hard disks

  • Satellite C650 - Question about the capacity of the HARD disk

    I just bought a Satellite C650. The specifications indicate 320 GB hard drive, but the diagnostic system indicates the disk space is 286 GB (free capacity is GB 261).

    Please indicate why this might be the case.

    Hi 12345,

    It is normal that you lose disk space after formatting the drive. 286GB is the normal capacity of a formatted hard drive 320, so everything is ok with your laptop.

    If you want to learn more about capacity on hard drives and need more technical information, why you only 286GB you can read this interesting Wiki:

  • Pavillion Dv4-1225dx do not fully recognize the capacity of the hard disk

    Recently I replaced the OEM hitachi hard drive (SATA 250 GB at 5400 RPM) in my Dv4-1225dx. Replaced by a WD scorpio black 16mg buffer 320G 7200 RPM / min. system registers only one size of 298G drive despite the fact that the player goes out very well with the Western Digital diagnostic tool and check the bios of the system HDD Pavilion. Is there a BIOS setting that is to limit the ability of the systems to recognize more than 300 GB drives? If there is, I'm not, the Bios (BIOS latest worm d.55) hid all the settings that I'm used to seeing on other laptops. If anyone has had this problem, or have any ideas of what I should look at? Thanks in advance...

    The missing space is called disk overhead. I'll show you and example. The image is that of a STAT 500 GB drive. In fact only 465 GB is used.  The calculation is simple. Please keep in mind that a kilobyte is actually 1024octets.
