• Hard drive not recognized by BIOS in Dell Precision T7910 workstation

  Greetings,

  I recently acquired a Dell Precision T7910 workstation without all the hard drives installed, so I went to the store and buy a 240 GB Sandisk SSD put in the hard drive and then installed caddy caddy in port 0 (I also tried port 1 with the same results), and then I turned on the computer and it says "no drives found" press f2 to enter setup or press f5 for the diagnostics. I think there is probably a setting in the BIOS to configure the hard drive that I'm ignorant, so any help would be appreciated.

  Is there a CTRL-R (or another command CTRL during POST) to enter a for the LSI controller configuration utility? Possible that if installed/enabled, ports are managed by the controller LSI instead of the BIOS. However, I have not a 7910 to watch... just go out how it worked normally.

• A power of 1000w Dell Precision 690 United States will work in the British system

  I want to order a replacement power and found a Dell Precision 690 1000W ND285 power in the United States, I know that this system works this power but wanted to know if I ordered it from the United States to be shipped to the United Kingdom (England) it will work here or is there a voltage difference that will blow/effect it?

  The reason why I ask this is that I repair my friends Precision 690 power because it starts not as it should be because it has the dreaded 1-3 and power button flashing continuously orange. I usually get it going again for him leaving on the supply cable of the day after / for a few hours, but the problem comes back finally after some closures, so not a solution.

  His system has 32 GB of RAM, a processor my171 mother board 2 Xeon QuadCore 5355, a Nvidia Quadro 4800 graphics card and 4 SATA drives and 2 DVD r/w drives all sitting in the appropriate ports.  I tested it on and all the way to no disk no ram, but even in this case the problem may occur intermittently.  I don't know that his power relatively maybe even a little somewhere? but I've looked and looked and left with the feeling that his power.

  but the only one I can find that is affordable is to the United States, the price they want to pay in Germany, I could buy a car for.

  American food will work in my UK machine?

  Thank you.

• Why my Dell Vostro have a Toshiba hard drive?

  April 25, 2015, I contacted Dell warranty on my hard-drive on my Vostro 3750. They ran diagnostics, concluded it was defective (Test read HardDrive-Targeted; CFI:N; KYHD:N; DD:N; Dr:N). on 27 April, they sent a replacement under the service request number 910355792. So when it happened, I've swapped disks and returned the defective one. Now fast forward to December when I was able to install Windows 10 Pro. Site Web de Microsoft had only a few requirements to run, mainly RAM, graphics processing and an OS to date start with. I didn't know that Dell had a list of computers that were not to be tested with W10. The installation went along fine and let him update the necessary drivers, have pre-installed just enough so he can start and connect to the internet to update. I was unaware that one of the device drivers to settle and my computer seems to work very well. Then about two weeks ago, he started to slow down. I noticed it would begin to freeze a little bit, but he would always thaw quickly. Then a week ago, I wrote a document of night (College Sophomore so this computer is pretty much my life) and closed the lid for the night. Now, the battery life is already pretty bad, so needless to say it's dead during the night, but when I went to turn it back on it took forever, it lights up. Easily 10-15 minutes just to get to the login screen. I unlocked it and it brought back to my office to plug it back in on my desk, where it remains almost religiously. I then got on Dell Support, which is where I finally found the 3750 has not been tested with W10 and ran a quick diagnosis that says the hard disk, which has been listed as a TOSHIBA is in critical condition and must be replaced immediately. At this point, I had to see what was going on, so I opened the Device Manager went to disks and here, he said that my hard drive is a TOSHIBA MQ01ACF050. Well, that's weird. So I checked my event viewer to make sure and it was indeed migrated, configured and started when I allowed and installed W10 in December. There was also an unknown device in the event log which is how I discovered the missing driver. Then to top it all, the administrative events log had 16 000 events from the moment I installed W10 until today, almost everything else just tell Harddisk0 DR0 has a bad block. duh. So I'm saving all our important documents to an external hard drive and I guess I will be W8 but what I really want to know is why guaranteed Dell send me a Toshiba hard drive. Any advice on any of these issues would be sincerely appreciated.

  There are only three manufacturers left portable players - WD, Seagate and Toshiba.  Almost all system vendors use each of them.

• Dell Optiplex 755 adding second hard drive

  I have a Dell Optiplex 755 and I would like to add a second hard drive (160GB 3.5 "SATA Hard Drive Western Digital WD1600AAJS) to have more space, because I think that the stock 75 GB is not enough for me. So I wonder if I need a new power supply or additional data and power cables.

  Thank you.

  The mini tour has two positions for the drives.  See the manual...

  NOTE from the ADMIN: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell >

  The two positions of hard disks are next to each other.

  Yes, you will need to provide a SATA cable

• Windows 7 seems to have unexplained memory use high after a scan of viruses of several hard drives.

  My computer:

  • 6 GB of installed memory, normal use is about 1.5 GB
  • 3 hard disks of the computer (OS [Raid 0]. 2 data readers)
  • Windows 7 64 bit

  Problem:

  • After analysis the entire computer, the use of memory up to 3.5 GB of jumps and stay until the computer is restarted.
  • Research in the Task Manager and resource monitor shows the memory used, but running programs don't add to what be close to 3.5 GB
  • I tested it with AVG and Avira antivirus, and it happens with both. Then he would lead me to believe it's a matter of Windows.

  Troubleshooting:

  • Tried it with several antivirus, same problem with ones I've tried.
  • Scanned just the OS partition without significant increase in memory usage.
  • Scanned two data discs. Memory usage has jumped about 1 GB during the analysis of the first hard drive and another 1 GB when on the second disc. Use of memory are remained high, once the completed scan. Subsequent analyses retains high memory usage.

  Question:

  • What is causing this behavior? Indexing, or is it some sort of memory leak?

  The answer can be found here.

• Is it possible to split the Windows 7 on several hard drives?

  Hi all!

  I have a question I asked on for a while and have never found an answer to.

  I use Linux and Windows together and I like the two operating systems, and one thing I LIKE about Linux, it is how it is easy to split on several partitions/hard disks.  If I want to put my/home folder on a different partition of the root folder that is located on a different drive of my Swap and / boot partitions, no problem! In fact, in some ways, it is almost encouraged/forced to make a system like this.

  Now, my question is can I do the same thing during the installation of Windows? (I mean Windows 7, but a response for all versions would be nice, too.) Specifically, can I have my 'Program Files' and the contents of the "Program Files (x 86)" folder exists on another drive and the rest of Windows partitions and have these partitions mounted these subfolders under C:\? The reason why I ask is that I received a Solid State Drive, and I don't want to fill it with all my programs/games that exist in those folders.

  Thanks a lot for the answers you can provide.

  Sincerely,

  Austin

  There are some things you can do with Windows, but not to the same extent as Linux. Read the article below.

• (Redirected) Cannot boot from the HARD drive on dell n5010 with SSD and HARD drive installed

  I have my old dell n5010 (15R Inspiron) with SSD (Samsung EVO 840 120 G) installed on the main drive Bay and the HDD (Samsung HJJ 500 G) on the optical drive Bay.

  It is a typical way to add an SSD on such an old laptop (bought from dell.com.cn in 2011).

  My Windows 10 operating system has been installed on the SSD using Samsung Data Migration software, so the previous C drive was pointless. So I formatted and installed an operating system Ubuntu 14.04 on it, hoping the grub OSs double beginning located on the HARD disk.

  However, I find no the Dell bios boot option to boot from the HARD drive installed in my optical drive Bay. All the choices are 'Hard Drive', 'Network' and 'Diagnostic '.

  But I was definitely sure that my bios program has detected the SSD and HDD with information on the main menu of the bios.

  And the LED on the optical drive Bay was immediately once I pressed the Start button on my laptop.

  As a general rule, all things were right except for options of the bios boot.

  Is there a way I can boot from HDD (with installed Ubuntu) while remaining has my SSD on the main drive Bay? I don't want to swap their positions, because the SSD is super fast on the main drive Bay.

  I have alse won't migrate 10 Windows to the HARD drive and reinstall Ubuntu on the SSD, because I'd like my windows be loaded quickly.

  Someone at - it the same problem with me?

  Any suggestion is appreciated!

• Several hard drives

  I just got a Dell 2950 III with 6x1TB drives that I intend using virtual machine. What is the best way to put in place so I can enjoy the storage full I availible for VM? Should I go ahead and install ESX then in ESX create extensions? Or do I have to go about it another way?

  And just as an observation. I received that one server at the moment, but our final installation will be actually 2 Dell 2950 III with discs hard 6x1TB.

  And if there is a post somewhere before in this topic I apologize.

  As a first step, you should think about type of load disk in your virtual machines and choose appropriate RAID. Then slice it to LUNS not more than 2 TB each.

  After that ESX or ESXi will create default layout on LUNS that you choose to boot from and automatically creates the VMFS data store on the remaining space. ESX take a few gigabytes for himself.

  All other LUNS will be available for manual creation of data store.

  You can of course check if Xtravirt Virtual SAN is interesting for you, because the ESX servers with BIG local data store is primarily intended for server consolidation.
