• Free space on hard drive for HP PROBOOK 450 G0 - H0U95EA

  Hello

  I'm looking for a laptopo HP, I would like to know the free space on hard drive for HP PROBOOK 450 G0 - H0U95EA.

  In the datasheet there are 750GB but in a boutique internet... I found that free space is that of 320 GB, is it good?

  Thank you!

  Marco

  More new software installs would more or less 60 gigs and a 750 GB drive reads as on 690 concerts in Windows Explorer. There will be a recovery partition and system partition that could take up to another 20 GB or more. Free space out of the box is still more than 575 casual jobs. That will decrease as games for Windows restore points.

• Free space on hard drive shown incorrectly

  My drive C (SW_Preload) has about 200 GB of space. When I click on 'Computer' in windows Explorer, it says that the total free space is 20 GB of used space 180 GB IE. However, when I select all folders and files on my C drive and select properties it shows the total size on disk is only 70 GB. I don't have this with the other readers (Lenovo and SERVICEV003).

  Does anyone know why this is so? My basket is empty and runnign short space when I know that there is still plenty of space on the drive (the laptop is only 3 months and I copied only 1-2 records this to that).

  Hello Hitchkee,

  Thank you for choosing Microsoft answers forums for Windows Vista. I hope you do well.

  To reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, you can use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need. Follow the link below for more details:

  http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/1264bc24-72a8-48AA-84e3-a355327139d91033.mspx

  There are a number of issues that contribute to the difference:

  Hidden and system files -Windows Explorer display above was using the default settings that do not display the files marked as 'hidden' or 'system', and therefore, they are not included in the calculation. Change this setting increases the "size on disk" by about 7 gigabytes that all the hidden files on my machine have been included in the calculation. In particular, which included the system pagefile and hibernation, which are large file and marked as hidden.

  To change the settings, you can follow the steps below:

  Start Windows Explorer, and then:
  Click on the Tools menu
  Click the folder menu item Options...
  Click the view tab
  In the advanced settings list, scroll down until you see the hidden files and folders and Hide protected operating system files.
  Make sure that the hidden files and folders is selected. I also uncheck Hide operating system files - for the same reason protected: I don't want to hide it from me, the Windows files.

  Directories - directories, or lists and indexes of files on your machine are not the files themselves, but they don't take place.

  The Table of Allocation of file or the master file Table - FAT itself, Hall of Fame of FAT file system, is actually pretty low. The MFT, however, used in NTFS file systems is also stored on the disk but not visible as a file. It defines where the used and free space on a drive is actually. Depending on the size of your drive, your files and the size of the allocation unit, the MFT can be quite large.

  The log file - this is a file, but even once, you won't see it. It's NTFS internal data.

  Hope this information is useful.

  Kind regards

• What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  No doubt a failure to the hibernation or a nasty system crash - not sure and not willing to risk a stable system there.  :-)

• Create more disk space

  I need to create more disk space on c:. I deleted all unvanted programs, deleted temporary Internet files etc., but this is not enough. When I searched through all directories, I found that my TEMP directory contained 14.6 GB of data. The problem is that when I press ctrl + A to mark all files, it says 36.4 MB. I ticked 'show all files' so there must be another type of hidden files.

  Is it possible to see the files and it is then possible to delete some of them or what the system and update files?

• Upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7 has no enough free space on hard drive

  Hey, I'm trying to move from XP to 7 (custom installation), and after a while, you have to choose where you want to install windows 7, so I chose the disk which has more than 100 GB of free space, but the thing tells me that its not enough free space... Please help.

  Greetings

  Albert

  Did you start the Windows XP installation?

  You have external storage devices connected to the machine? If so, disconnect them all. In addition, if you have several internal storage devices, disconnect them all except the target device where Windows will be installed.

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• Not enough free space on the drive to intall Brother MFL - Pro Suite

  My PC is running Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002, Service Pack 3 and I had my Brother MFC-9440CN multifunction printer for about 2 or 3 years and it worked without problems during this period.

  However, I recently moved across country and since the implementation of my PC again once the scanner no longer works because the following error:

  "Failed to start the control center. Required registry information is missing. Please reinstall the Multi-Function Suite (CC3-001-00001901).

  So I uninstalled the suite already on my system so to re - install, and I now get:

  "There is not enough disk space to install. Brother MFL - Pro Suite requires at least 44 MB of free hard disk space. »

  I have 116 GB of free space on my C drive where everything is installed, so it's not logical to me, but now I can't do anything on my printer because the suite is currently uninstalled. How can I solve this problem? All the tips and advice would be most appreciated.

  If it is a USB connection, try a different USB port.

  1, however, make sure that all removed them from xp, go to my computer,.

  Search, search all the files (hidden & protected), with the results, delete all.

  Also, search using brother MFL - Pro, separate searches. Once through, go to

  run, type: regedit

  In regedit, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, software, if its listed, R.click & clear. Close

  outside, expand: HKEY_LOCAL_USER, software, do the same thing, close regedit when thru. Back to

  In the new window, go to edit, select all, clear all, close when thru, (you can see the old

  After all, stop pc, try a different USB port...

• If I delete the backup of the Service Pack files to create more disk space, I have created a potential problem?

  Periodically, I use Disk Cleanup to create more space and speed up the startup time. Today when my computer is on, it took an extra long time but when I ran disk cleanup, the amount of space to win does not jive with the time it took to load. Then I pulled the top "Clean up System Files" and cleaning the my backup files of the Service Pack, I have everything to gain from 920 MB of space.

  Question: If I delete those, am I causing potential damage to my system?
  Thank you.

• Find the store of data with more free space.

  So I'm trying to build a script to configure the virtual machine.

  I'll have it retrieve the node to keep newly available vm out based on the cluster, I said to use. I'm just using the Random function to do that then I select a node in the cluster.

  Where I have questions, how can I

  find the data store less used, based on a particular data store naming scheme.

  I want to say is:

  Hypathetically, I for example named data warehouses:

  store data-prod-01 200 GB free

  store data-prod-02 500 GB free

  free data-prod-03 10 GB store

  free data-qa-01 200 GB store

  free data-qa-02 1000 GB store

  I want to throw in a piece of code to tell him to watch data warehouses "datastore-prod *" and place the virtual machine on the store of data with the most space. (that's assuming that the vm will agree on the DS and let fresh generals)

  I guess I want to know if it is possible?

  I would also be concerned about scenario that perhaps the vm should I build just will not match on any of my other data store. I guess I need a logic to check if it is still possible.

  This is more than a wish rather than a necessity. I'm thinking if I just read the info, or use a cvs file after running the script. Any recommendations would be greatly appreacted.

  Hello, drivera01-

  You should be able to do this with a very small amount of code.  Download all data warehouses that correspond to the model name, sort free space (in descending order) and select the top one.  As:

  ## get the datastore matching datastore-prod* that has the most freespace$oDatastoreWithMostFree = Get-Datastore datastore-prod* | Sort-Object -Property FreespaceGB -Descending:$true | Select-Object -First 1
  
  ## if the freespace plus a bit of buffer space is greater than the size needed for the new VMif (($oDatastoreWithMostFree.FreespaceGB + 20) -gt $intNewVMDiskSize) {<# do the provisioning to this datastore #>}else {"oh, no -- not enough freespace on datastore '$($oDatastoreWithMostFree.Name)' to provision new VM"}
  

  The second part, where it checks for sufficient freespace on the data store that has the most free, can be updated to behave as you need, but that should be the basis.  How does this look?

• ESX brings more free space than does SAN

  I have a student who has an ISCSI SAN Dell EqualLogic PS400E and ESX 3.5i servers using VMware software initiator. They observed that formatted with the VMFS LUNS show different amounts of free space if you view ESX or SAN. The SAN of reports more LUNS are low on space but ESX reports that there is a good bit of free space on the data store. The variation of the reports may be as much as 50 GB.

  Anyone got any ideas on why this can happen and that they should look to reconcile the differences?

  You can find an old thread on this argument.

  It's true: Equallogic indicate less space than ESX, but the reason is simple...

  EqualLogic can't VMFS and how it works.

  Know only the block marked as used (which may be free or unused in VMFS).
