D2 Hard Drive Extreme maintenance?

Recently, I got intermittent connection on my external drive problems.  http://www.LaCie.com/support/desktop-storage/D2-extreme-triple/

Should I do any function of regular maintenance to keep it in good working order?  I tried to run the disk first aid today and received an error message that it could not be done.

Help?

First suspicion is the AC Power Supply, secondly the wiring.

  • Satellite M30: Hard drive extremely slowly

    Hello!

    I'm from Germany, so excuse my mistakes!

    A few months ago, I bought a used satellite M30 laptop. I'm right with the seller on the guarantee, because he said it has 1.5 years and then it should still be under warranty.

    Now my problem is that the hard drive (Toshiba MK6021GAS) became very slow. It's playback with a speed of only 2.5 MB/sec. I tested it with HD Tune tool. I already checked on the internet and it should be much faster. My extern harddrive has a speed of around 28-30 MB/sec, so I use most of the stuff on this one for now.

    I would like to know if there is still hope to fix (perhaps even by myself) or if I have to buy a new hard drive.
    There are 2 remarkable things I've done, which may have an influence on it.
    1. the seller in portable format whole before selling it, so I had to use the recovery CDs system to make it work again.

    2. I changed one of the blocks of 256 MB of RAM with a 512 MB RAM block, that I bought for my previous laptop. I checked if the new RAM worked well and the list of hardware as it shows correctly.

    Hello

    The RAM will be shown, but are you sure that the new module has the same bus as the original speed?

    I recommend you to preinstall the device with the recovery media and check the HARD disk activity. Also, test it without second RAM. If the HARD disk is running slowly again contact the Service partner and let them verify properly. If the disk dies HARD drive will be replaced.

  • internal hard drive of the AirPort Extreme?

    Is it possible to install an internal hard drive on AirPort Extreme?

    NO.

    You can put a hard drive inside... as he shares the frame with the TC... but there is no control over the Board and boot rom is probably wrong.

    If you want a hard drive of your only choice is to use USB... either course, you can get a Time Capsule.

  • External SSD hard drive not detected by Airport Extreme/Time Capsule

    Hello everyone, I have the following problem:

    -HD was formatted as OS x journaled Extended

    -J' tried smb and cifs via 'connect to server', but does not work.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Unfortuantely, Apple did not update the firmware on the USB key (it is still 2.0) port on their routers for a number of years.  As a result, new USB 3.0 drives may or may not work with airports.

    Yes, we know that USB 3.0 is supposed to be backward compatible with USB 2.0 in theory, but theory does not always work in practice.

    If your drive is formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled)... also called HFS +... .and you have tried the drive with and without a USB hub powered and the reader will not be displayed with you check using the AirPort Utility disks tab... then you have one of a number of readers who do not work with routers from the airport.

    I just checked a new LaCie USB 3.0 drive I have here. It works perfectly with a Mac, but it appears not at all when I connect it to the USB port or a powered new AirPort Extreme or new Time Capsule directly, or by using a USB hub.

  • Satellite 1410 714 extremely slow after replacing HARD drive

    Hello

    I have a Satellite 1410-714 which has had a hard drive failure. I replaced the drive, but now the computer is extremely slow. Windows has been reinstalled, it was really slow too much and now it takes minutes for windows to start.

    I suspect that something might have broken on the motherboard and the hard disk. I checked mobo replacement parts, but have not found anything for-714, so a 1410 mobo compatible? This model has a processor celeron 1.8.

    Thanks for help.

    Hello

    I can t think the motherboard is broken after replacing HARD drive.
    I suggest updating the BIOS first. Maybe your old BIOS have a few problems with the most recent HARD drive.
    Please check site driver Toshiba for the latest version of BIOS.

    Have you used any anties Virus applications?

  • Airport Extreme with a USB hard drive

    I have iMac, retina runs El Capitan, I have a fairly new Airport Extreme 6.3.6 running.  My desire is to attach a USB drive and have available files can I access any of my computers.  Also have old iMac and a MBP (about 2012 or 2013).  All three are attached to Airport Extreme, through ethernet cables.  I use the wireless for iPhone and iPad, not for computers.

    I have a Seagate 2 TB hard drive. I connected directly to the latest iMac and all is well. Get the connect to Airport Extreme, it does not appear in the Finder.  After reading several articles I tried to install this on a powered USB hub and the HD in it.  Still does not appear in the Finder.

    I tried to reformat the hard disk, but would not be able to afford it. I have app NTSF on iMac.

    I hope that's enough detail for someone to offer assistance.  Please, I beg you!  -Kathy

    You need to connect to a computer and reformat the drive as Mac OS extended (journaled). AirPort Extreme cannot read USB drives to NTFS or exFAT format.

    original title: drive hard extreme airport

    Using Windows 7 and the Airport Extreme.  The Airport Extreme has a USB port that can be used to mount an external hard drive which is accessible via the wireless connection.  Only thing is, I can't get a 2 GB flash drive will appear for mapping.  When I use the other hard drives, they never show upward for mapping.  They show that it is connected to the Airport Extreme, but are not seen by my PC.   The internet has a rumor according to which hard drives will show up only on a PC if they are to FAT32... which would work without another formatted hard drive.  What do you know about my problems of compatibility with hard drives?

    Hello

    Check updates firmware for the Airport Extreme.

    ---------------------

    Although I think that the question is really the Airport Extreme also updates Windows 7 WiFi.
    Check with the system manufacturer and the real device manufacturer updates the driver.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.

  • External hard drive is extremely slow backup

    We have an external hard drive connected to our iMac. Time Machine used to store backups, but something happened and he stopped to save on 16 February the hard disk became full and when the reader become unalterable for Time Machine could not delete older backups.

    I contacted Apple to see what we should do. Apple told me to format the external hard drive, so I did. Then I put the time Machine to start back up again to do.

    Time Machine now seems to be back up to him, but he tells me that he will take 25 days. It will also very slowly.

    Are there still problems with the hard drive? What should we do? Is it actually backup? It will still save it slowly or right the first time?

    Thank you!!!

    Look at the hard disk in the sidebar of the Finder and see if a new Time Machine file has been created on the drive. If so, I'd let the backup race. Since reformat you the drive, Time Machine needs to backup the entire computer. Initial estimates of the remaining time are usually very inaccurate. Once the initial backup is complete, backup will go much quicker. See questions 7 and 29 in the article below.

  • After Windows Update on 13/10/11 all reboots Windows is extremely slow and hard drive is on continuously.

    I ran the Windows, distributed update to my PC 10/13/11.  After restarting the computer is so slow as to be unusable.  I am able to get the Windows Task Manager to run, and it sees a minimum CPU (0-10%).  The hard drive light is on continuously.  The computer seems to be tied up access the hard disk.  The machine restarts do not help.  When you try to use Windows Explorer to view what is on the hard drive of each operation takes several minutes to complete.  I tried to launch the system restore to restore to before the update, but it shows a blank white screen.  Often trying to do something with the Windows Explorer I see in the title bar of Windows Explorer (not responding).

    How can I get the machine into a usable state?

    It's a shame that we know absolutely nothing about your system, but it's because the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked.

    You can probably fix your calendar to restore system back to an earlier date, but that would leave you without the updates, so you should really understand what the deal is with them and fix it (eventually).

    Here's how:

    If your system restore page display only the title bar 'System Restore', or your accounts settings page of users shows that the 'User accounts' title bar and the screen where information needs to be is an empty white box...

    System Restore is a frequent target of attacks by malicious software.  If SR was working before and is now afflicted, run some scans and then fix any problems.

    Remember that the system restore is not a time machine.

    Just fix the immediate issuance of the calendar vacuum system restore:

    Looks like your file jscript.dll became somehow not registered so you can re-record it.

    There are probably a few other things that do not work you know yet, so fix them all at once.

    Re-registration of these DLLs is correct, even if they do not need renewal.  THERE

    Click Start, run, and in the box enter orders following one at a time.  Click the OK button to execute each command one at a time.

    regsvr32 jscript.dll
    regsvr32 vbscript .dll
    regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll (it's a look of slash)

    The last order for mshtml load the DLL but can also contain a harmless warning depending on your environment.

    Now check your timetable for restoration of the system and/or the user account settings page.

    After you get through the other 'methods', then someone can help your mounting system, but it will be easier and go faster without wild goose chase if you provide additional information, first:

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Now make some clarifications:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Click on OK and when system summary information is displayed, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy) Ctrl + C) then paste (Ctrl-V) the information here.

  • My h8-1214 is EXTREMELY slow. Hard drive seems to be guilty. Install an SSD?

    How do you install a hard drive that is faster than the stock drive 5600 rpm on this machine?  It is so SLOW to start and the Sims 3 loading lasts 30 minutes.  My last machine (HP 4 years) was actually FASTER than this new machine. (as is my laptop (H7) 5 year old and 3 years Pavilion HPE 2101 my wife).    Windows Performance Index shows 7.3 to 7.5 - 7, 4-7, 4-5, 9 (the hard drive)... Obviously, I can't replace the drive since it's the startup disk and contains the restore information, but I can install another (faster) drive and install games and data to load on this subject?  I upgraded the video card (obviously) with the appropriate PSU 700 watt and looked up his score, but need help for this.

    Well, I talked to my brother (MS Certified tech with about three degrees of the computer) and he walked me through a few settings.  It turns out the USB boot all that was the culprit.  Disable it decreased my boot time less than a minute as the seat of the machine.  So happy that I called him first before you undo everything.  He called for him before you post here, of course.

  • Remove the hard drive before sending for maintenance?

    Hi all, I'm somewhat new, so I hope that people can help me with this.

    My T400 mother board seems to be dead, which means I can't use the laptop at all. I called Lenovo service center and they told me to post my laptop for them (my warranty is still valid).

    However, I realized later that it was the small matter of trust all my data for them, so I called again to ask. A different operator recommended that I have remove all the hard drive before you post the phone for them. That's what I intend to do, but I forgot to ask if it was OK to remove the disk hard when there is a motherboard problem.

    Is it?

    No it will work as it did you do not have to do anything, it will have the same serial number of the system but have different material serial number

  • HP Pavilion dv7-4150er upgrade complete. Issue of processor and HARD drive

    Hello. Sorry for my English. I'm from the Ukraine.

    I want to improve my HP Pavilion dv7-4150er and I need advice from experienced people.

    Now, I have:

    -8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB),

    -1 TB of HDD (5400 RPM)

    -stock video (Mobility Radeon hd 5650 graphics card) card overclocked to 700 MHz GPU and 950 MHz Vram.

    -CPU (mobile Quad Core Intel Core i7-720QM, 1716 MHz) in stock

    -BIOS F.29

    2 problems:

    -Slow CPU

    -Slow HARD drive

    I want to buy a few HARD drives SSD for Windows and secondary soft and left for the data.

    Get an increase in the performance of the system?

    On the 'Intel' site, I read that my

    Intel® HM55 Express Chipset Mobile

    is compatible with the more powerful processors. LINK

    And I have a great opportunity to buy Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13 GHz)

    But the laptop manual says:

    720QM and 940xm - identical processors. The difference in 'MAX TDP' 45w/55w, 'Cache' 6 mb / 8 mb and clock speed 1.6 GHz/2.13 GHz

    The Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13) will work properly in my laptop?

    or not?

    I have read many articles on this topic, but the answer is not...

    And I can't find information on HP F.29 BIOS specification.

    How can I increase a CPU nested way (with another compatible processor) perfomance if 940xm is not compatible?

    Help me please.

    Thank you for your time.

    Hello nickiblackmore.  I understand that you are curious about the upgrade of your laptop.

    Here is a link to Guide of Service and Maintenance of your laptop.  It covers the disassembly of the laptop and can also show you how to replace parts if you upgrade the.

    If you switch to a Solid State Drive of a standard 5400 or 7200 RPM hard drive, you should see a significant performance increase.  This is because a normal hard drive spinning platters and it takes time to locate data on the trays as they are moving.  A Solid State Drive has no moving parts and therefor can locate data much more quickly.

    A CPU upgrade is a much more difficult question.  HP does not recommend that you perform this type of upgrade.  Laptops are generally designed with specific thermal and electrical needs.  If you change the CPU, it will probably create more heat and use a higher power that will cause you problems.  However, if you stick to a processor that is listed in the service (for example in your picture) Guide, you should be fine.  For example, you can choose one of the microprocessors found in the image to upgrade your laptop.  Also, keep in mind that the integral part upgrade as a CPU can affect your warranty (check your warranty here).

    If you think that answers your question be sure to mark the post as solved.  This makes it easier for others to find answers to their questions.

    Have a great day!

  • External hard drive

    Guy at the Apple Store said I could buy an external HD and plug it into the AirPort Extreme and use Time Machine to back up my MacBook wireless. I bought the technology G - 2 TB. Well, the HD is not appearing on my MacBook. The apple employee didn't know what he was talking about?  Is it possible to make it work so that I can save wireless?

    Thank you

    The Apple Store employee stated more details... of things like...

    (1) AirPort Extreme must be the current version of the 'tour' in the shape of the product. (Old AirPort Extreme models shaped 'flat or square' do not support officially Time Machine backups)

    (2) the hard drive must be formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled) to work properly with Time Machine. Unless the documentation that came with your hard drive specifically accurate it is formatted for Mac, chances are that the drive has been formatted to work with Windows.

    Finally, your first full backup of the Mac will go 3 - 5 times faster on average if you connect your Mac on one of the ports Ethernet LAN <>- at the back of the AirPort Extreme.  Once you have the first backup, you can switch on Wi - Fi, as "additional" subsequent backups will be much smaller than the first full backup.
