Disk replacement Timeline-M5-581TG

Hello

iWant to replace my drive hard m5-581tg. I bought a WD black and seen that it is not thin like the original hard drive.

My question is: can I replace the hard drive with a drive not 7mm?

Kind regards.

Hello

All hard original have a height of 7mm. The M5 Aspire is a ultrabook so I don't think it's possible.

  • Disk replacement HARD satellite 1800-400,

    Prices differ as much here, so I think to replace my broken HD Toshiba (I believe that is / was 20 GB) with a new HD. Can I use one of the new 5400 RPM type disks, or if I hold with 4200 RPM normal ones?

    If I do, should I first replace the old BIOS?

    Maybe you need to consider the noiselevel to a 5400 RPM hard drive?

    Update the BIOS? ... Never change a running system ;)

  • : 6000 #1 IDE ERROR after disk replacement

    Hi I have a couple of SP6000 and there a mounted DVD/CDRW (UJDA720 model number) who is unable to read the headlines, just hunting all the time that a disk is in the drive. I replaced the drive with 2 identical units called, but I get the message on the screen at startup, ERROR IDE #1. The laptop will then continue and has finished start, but the system is unable to see this player. I have tried both a UJDA720 and the updated version a little more recent, UJDA740 with the same results in two laptops.

    Replaceing the old drive in your laptop will result in no error at startup and the system can see the drive in the Panel, but cannot read the titles, although it will hunt in search of them.

    Any ideas as to the cause and the cure for this?

    Hello

    It seems that you have replaced the disc is not compatible.
    As far as I know most readers using a selected cable configuration. Your car has settings master or slave.
    Please check the label for more information that is placed on the disk
    Well well, to solve this massage you need a player compatible and taken in charge.

  • Disk replacement HARD Qosmio F60-111

    Hello

    There was a hardware error in my laptop and the dealer told me that there is an error with a hard drive and it will be replaced under warranty.

    My question is that is that the new drive will come with the same configuration and the score of the original hard drive? I mean that it will be a breast hidden restore partition?

    My laptop is Qosmio F60-111

    > My question is that is that the new drive will come with the same configuration and the score of the original hard drive? I mean that it will be a breast hidden restore partition?

    The new drive HARD would not be partitioned and contain all the data!
    After replacing HARD drive, you must use the recovery disk in order to install the system, the drivers, tools and for the partitioned HARD drive.

    Did you create a recovery disk in the past?

  • Disk replacement HARD & BIOS question - Satellite A60

    Hi guys

    I have a Satellite A60-672 and his original 40 GB drive is dead. I got a Seagate 80 GB HDD as a replacement, but after it is inserted, it does not show in the BIOS. I did some searching on Google but not really came up with a large part. Is it possible that the BIOS does not recognize the new drive due to the larger size?

    I looked in the BIOS upgrade (currently version 1.50) and found an update to 1.90. After reading the upgrade of BIOS FAQ (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?z=234&service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=B IOS & FID = TRO0000000b07) I have saw apparently need a floppy drive that laptop did not. Can I use a CD - R in the place or what I need to get a USB floppy drive now?

    Thanks for any help.

    > Is it possible that the BIOS does not recognize the new HARD drive because of the larger drive?

    Yes, it is quite possible and especially a reason why the large capacity HARD disk cannot be used.

    It seems that the update of the BIOS on the Satellite A60 can be done only with the USB FDD.
    But why you want to update the BIOS?
    I don t think that the update will change something
    It seems that the 80 GB are not possible.

  • Disk replacement hard invalid backup?

    Hello

    I have a Sony notebook with Vista Home, which I've upgraded to Vista Ultima. Now, I would use a bigger drive C on my Sony laptop. Is there a check that makes this impossible?

    I used full PC Backup in Vista to make a backup and restore on the new largest disk. That looked good, but then I noticed I can't read my Windows Mail, or see my second hard drive and several other problems. An OEM Vista Home version is somewhat limited on the disc, on which it is installed, not the PC/laptop it works?

    Thank you

  • Disk replacement hard m6 envy

    Looks like I need to replace the hard drive on Envy 6. Warranty expired 6 days ago! I can't leave with Best Buy for 2-4 weeks so I want to try replacement myself. Where can I buy the correct hard drive and can I do it myself? Then load a new operating system? What I have to do new Windows 8 (don't like it)? I have all my files stored on Carbonite. Thank you!

    Thank you very much.

    I had the honor of serving.

    Yes, you can install W7 on your laptop.

    If you have a full W7 64 bit program and product license key, you can do the following to install W7...

    First of all, you need to change a BIOS setting (and you'll need to do in order to boot from the recovery W8 disks too).

    See this link below...

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03736054

    Then for the W7 x 64 drivers you must:

    First, install the amd chipset driver and restart. The first file listed in the page.

    http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download/chipset?OS=Windows 7-64

    Then all the W7 x 64 drivers and software of this model will work also on yours.

  • Hard disk replacement 5 RAID PowerEdge T620

    Hi all

    Here's the situation.  One of my clients has a Dell PowerEdge T620 that raids.  Group 0 is RAID 1 with discs hard 0 and 1.  Group 1 is a RAID 5 with 2-6 drives.  The RAIDs are hardware RAID and software either.  I do CTRL + R to join RAID controller at the start of the server system.

    6 player came with a predictive failure (flash green once, once orange flash, no flash, repeat).  It is not indicating that it is bad in the RAID software.  In the Dell software manage Open, he states that it is a non-critical error.  I called Dell and they sent a disc of the same type, style and size.

    Here's my question: since this is a critical server what is the best way to replace the hard drive and the RAID to rebuild.  Don't want to lose all the data on this since it is an EMR system.

    Yes, I guess that the RAID will rebuild itself, so I have to ask if this is also true, a RAID 5 system will rebuild itself when a hard drive is restarted?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Since it is a critical server what is the best way to replace the hard drive and the RAID to rebuild.
    • You must ensure that you have a valid backup first tested
    • Run a check consistency before replacing or drive offline
    • Disconnected the disk before replacing
    • Hot the disc if you have a bottom of basket. Turn off and unplug replace it if cable.

    You can use OpenManage Server Administrator for offline consistency checks and initiate.

    Thank you

  • Recovery disk replacement for W7

    Hi I have a driver that does not on my HP Pavilion #s5510y PC 64-bit model.  I use windows 7, because I can't move on to windows 10 due to firmware Nividia circuits installed in my PC.  I found the replacement driver for my computer on seagate, but because of the way the driver is corrupted, I can't make a recovery disk for windows using the current driver. Anyone know where I can get a recovery for my computer disk? Maybe and preferably through Microsoft

    If you do not burn one when the machine was new then you can get one from your HP dealer.

  • RAID 0 disk replacement

    I have a pavilion of office e9280t.

    If I have to replace the RAID 0 drives in case of failure, which is currently 600 GB total together what type or size to replace by?

    Can take any size or it is intended only for about 600 GB?

    I know that readers should have the same capacity and type or duplicates of each other, but what about the size limit?

    The INTEL driver will automatically take care of everything, including the RAID 0 configuration, formatting, and reject if the size is beyond it is engineered capcacity?

    Hello, KnuckleHead, here is the link to the specifications for your system. It shows that this system will allow a Raid array with these disk configurations.

    1 TB (2 x 500) 7200 RPM RAID 0 SATA 3 G (3.0 Gb/s)

     

    Also, it shows this configuration but doesn't mention Raid0, so do not know if this configuration is supported for a table, Raid0, but I would think so.

    2 TB (2 x 1 TB) 7200 RPM SATA 3 G (3.0 Gb/s)

    You should be aware that you must set up the Raid0 array before you can install the operating system.

    You can do this after you have installed two new hard drives, by starting the system and after that the HP Logo screen disappears, press the ctrl key and the key at the same time to enter the Intel Matrix Raid utility. Once there, you select the desired Raid Matrix type, in your case, Raid0, then select two drives for the Raid0 configuration table, save the settings and exit.

    The system should reboot and with the operating system disc in the optical drive, the system should boot the disk to the operating system for a new installation. During the installation process, you will see a screen that ask you where you want to install the operating system. You should see two partitions. The first partition is a partition of 100 MB Windows 7 creates for the Setup program and other files. Let this partion as what and select the larger partition for operating system installation.

    The operating system should proceed normally. You must back up all the data on the original Raid0 array since when you break a Raid array, you will lose all data on the hard drives. You will also lose your recovery restore partition that is located on the original Raid0 array.

    You also need a copy of Windows 7 from any disk from HP that have been created on the original array Raid0 recovery no stay would be valid for the new Raid0 array.

    This is possible, but is not for the faint of heart and you need a new drive of the Windows 7 operating system, unless you have the CV provided the upgrade disc. HP Windows 7 upgrade disk can be used as a disk of the new facility. You would need to enter the product key and activate the operating system after the installation.

  • PowerEdge 2900 showing predicted failure after disk replacement

    Hello

    I posted this same message in the forum of the disk drives, then I realized there's a specific forum for disks hard server so I'm copying here.

    We have a Poweredge 2900 with HDs 2x500Gb on RAID-1. One of the drives has failed and we replaced it with an identical disk that works very well (same brand, model number Seagate, etc.), but without a Dell PN.

    After replacement, the controller began to rebuild the RAID, but it shows "predicted failure = Yes" for this new album. The disc is currently still under reconstruction.

    One thing to notice is that apparently the Perc firmware is outdated. OpenManage shows that the current Perc 6 / i firmware version is 6.0.2 - 0002, and the minimum required version of the firmware is 6.2.0 - 0012. If I go to the Dell support site and enter a label for the Server service, it shows me a download available for the Perc firmware with version 6.3.3 - 0002.

    The questions are:

    -Is generally allowed to use not Dell certified readers if they are of the same brand and model as the other disk?

    -How would I determine the source for the warning of predicted failure?

    -It would have something to do with obsolete Perc firmware? Are there risks associated with Perc firmware upgrade?

    Thank you very much in advance for your help!

    Update for our fans to the forum thread. Original poster concluded that used replacement drive was indeed bad. He is later replaced by a good drive and will update the server accordingly.

  • HP Envy 15-q178ca mobile: bad Windows disk replaced

    I sent my Hp laptop due to a hard drive problem.  My disc contained 10 to win.  They replaced the disc as my laptop is still in warranty.   For some reason I do not understand what they delivered my laptop back to me with Win 8 in there instead of my Win 10.  I get the race of people on the lines of support (from other countries); You should hear some of their solutions, i.e. replace the chip on the MB and other stupid answers.

    I'm trying to recover my Win 10, surely, HP must be able to provide me with a link, but I guess that it is beyond their comprehension.

    Sorry for sounding so hard, but at the age of 80, I don't have a lot of patience left.

    Hello

    As mentioned on my last response, HP can reset only your machine to its original windows because HP is not owner of Microsoft products.

    Thank you for we do know that Microsoft has given you a free upgrade because they stopped it a few days ago.

    My last point: I don't know why they (from HP Support) asked you to change the chip on the MB.

    Have a good weekend.

    Kind regards.
