Drive hard 303 and 305 errors

Hello. My HP Pavilion dv6-6095ex started using so slow to the extent that I could open any file; Therefore, I did hard automatic test of disk errors then got 303 and 305, so I searched for this topic and read a few reviews stating replace HARD drive is a must to solve the problem. Also, it was mentioned I need to check the number of spare part (that's what I found: 634250-001). BTW, I coludn can't found my model here ( & Maintenance Guide.).

These are the questions I hope to receive an answer, please:

1. is there a HIGH possibility from facing the same problem in the near future, because I'm afraid to buy new HARD drive would be a waste?

2 - What are the best choices for a new HARD drive?

If you have any positive information I'm all ears and eyes ():

I would be very grateful for any help.

Hello

(1) No, the final solution only for the failed hard drive is replaced by a new brand of good quality one. Errors are conclusive for the replacement of hard disk.
But performance issues, you were previously dependent on who was in the car you use - physical spinning total use of the RAM, processor, hard disk of GOLD Chipset resembling the State (SSD) solid, useless & programs software removal etc.

Your system supports (160GB SATA) SSD who boosts performance significantly if the size limit is limited. Your system preinstalled 6 GB of RAM which gives pretty decent results. The processor is also good but not later that yours is 2nd generation Intel processor (the last is 4th gen).
So I think that replace HARD drive should minimize the performance issue.

Read on: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01817290

It's your choice, you want an SSD performance but low by storing normal physical spinning of data (GOLD) HARD drive for large storage capacity & decent speed.

Your system came pre-installed with 750 GB 5400 RPM HARD drive.

According to the Service Manual of your product, I have given above, see Page 6 & 7, the system supports up to 1 TB 5400 RPM, SATA, 12.7 mm thick, form factor: 2.5 ".
It supports also 750 GB 7200 RPM but 9.5 mm thick, form factor: 2.5 ".
If you can replace with or any of the foregoing.

You can refer to Page 31 for more details.

Supported SATA type is SATA 2 i.e., 3Gbps, but SATA 3, 6 GB/s hard drives also go with your system, they are backward compatible.

Here are a few:

  • 303 and 305 errors

    Recently I started to have problems at the start of my HP Pavilion g6 series portable computer. I would like to get a disc error that would require me to restart with "control, alt, delete."

    I am under that Windows 7 Home Premium with an Intel i7 - 2620M clocked @ 2.70 GHz with 6 GB of RAM and it is a 64-bit operating system.

    Do I have reason to assume that the hard drive is preparing to fail? If so, how to replace it and what should I replace it with?

  • New hard drive for HP Pavilion dv6 drive because of error messages 303 and 305

    Hello

    My laptop was getting slower and slower, so I did a restore default via the recovery partition, and when it restarts to start reformat and reinstall back to factory condition, I got a message on the screen telling me to run the hard drive test. Did it and got error 303 and 305 messages. Restore to preset works however, after doing research in the error codes I go account, I'm for a new hard drive.

    My laptop is a HP Pavilion dvd6-3203TU with WIndows 7 Home Premium installed. It currently has a disk 320 GB TOSHIBA MK3265GSXX HDD in it.

    After reading the forums, I am pleased to see that my recovery disks will be reinstalling everything on a new hard drive and partition a C: drive and also the recovery partition. The main issue I have is my new drive hard must it be 320 GB in size as the original or to buy something like a disk 500 GB + for the laptop. If I have to replace the hard drive that I can as will increase size while, if possible i.e..

    It must also be a Toshiba or I can buy another brand?

    Eager to help regarding this I thank you in advance as

    Hello

    Your laptop is listed as coming with a 320 GB hard drive, but you can install just as easily a 500 GB or 750 GB HARD drive if you want more space - readers at the following links are examples that would be perfect for your laptop - you are in no way limited to a particular manufacturer.

    Hard drive 500 GB

    750 GB hard drive.

    The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 65 of your & Maintenance Guide.

  • 303 and 305 diagnostic error codes.

    I have problems with a Compaq presario CQ61 421SA that is over 3 years old and little used. She became unresponsive and would hang permanently on the office page. Then he would start only in safe mode and finally he wouldn't even that. I've recovered from the partition recovery 3 times now and got things going again only a relapse to the same problems. I did all sorts of controls of sfc/scannow, scandisk, hard starting, start clean and same BIOS update. Nothing shown or improve. Diagnosis before initializing controls showed two codes 303 and 305, and the newspaper has several inputs in this regard. The computer is currently running OK, but a full diagnosis always generates 305 error even if I got the recovery partition and update everything. I fear that it will start to behave badly shortly after. On my last recovery I tried to set the BIOS to boot from the internal DVD and then put in the first of 3 recovery disks when I bought it first, I created. He doesn't seem to read the disc or start the installation of him so I returned to the recovery partition. I'm hesitant to throw good after bad money until I can be sure to a new hard drive.

    Any suggestions/help would be welcome.

    Hello

    Thanks again for the help.

    I have now solved this one. I found that the codes 303 and 305 has got worse when I started also failing the SMART control diagnostics test done from the BIOS. It was a little conclusive evidence of the problem - no hard drive. I replaced with a brand new HARD drive a slightly larger size (500 GB instead of 320), made sure the BIOS was set to boot from the CD Rom, rather than the HARD disk drive and then used disks of 3 installation I had created when the computer was first purchased in order to return to a fully functional State. The disadvantage was that it was in the same condition as it was when first purchased with all more later lost DATA. Outside of time, everything is OK but I had to reinstall updates of security without end etc. to bring myself perfectly up-to-date again. This proves the value of backup files somewhere else or creating an ISO file of the content of the old hard drive before it fails to restore later. As long as you use the original motherboard and the installation discs created first, it seems that these discs will run and restore new hard drive on a new.  Hope this helps someone else.

  • 4MOT/4/40000003: drive HARD-1383 and 4MOT/4/40000003: drive HARD-1373

  • Driver tools INI and fatal errors

    Hey everyone, I'm experimenting with the driver INI instruments and fall on a fatal runtime error.  Here's what I know so far:

    1. Run-time error occurs only when the first Ini_Putxxx
    2. It occurs if the target INI file does not yet exist.  Once the file is created with an Ini_WriteToFile, then the program will carry out all the functions of my Put without any error.

    Ideas?

    Are you sure about that? I tried just to call these functions in the window Interactive execution without errors (the destination file wasn't there before the call and was created without errors):

    #include "inifile.h"
    
    static int          error = 0;
    static IniText      T = 0;
    
    T = Ini_New (0);
    Ini_PutString (T, "General", "Item 1", "Test string");
    Ini_PutInt (T, "General", "Item 2", 123);
    Ini_PutDouble (T, "General", "Item 3", Pi ());
    error = Ini_WriteToFile (T, "C:\\test.ini");
    Ini_Dispose (T);
    

    Ini_PutXX functions do not have any disk access, they work entirely in memory; the only functions where the instrument is accessing the disk are Ini_WriteToFile and Ini_ReadFromFile. What error do you get? Can you post an example of code that shows the error?

  • HP Pavilion DV6-3041TX drive HARD failure and possible design Intel series 6 Chipset problem

    Hey guys

    I saw corruption serious hdd on my system for some time now and was just move to replace the drive hard when I came across the problem of design of Intel® chipsets. Now, I think that my system is the range of serial number for this question and as the current drive does not start, I can't check the Device Manager to see if the chipset is one of those affected.

    Is there anyway for me to check this from a USB bootable or something similar, because I don't want to have to go through the effort to replace the hard drive and reinstall windows just to find the chipset is wrong?

    Thank you

    (Now, this is my first post on the forum if I appoilgise if I've got this in the wrong place)

    I searched the pages of Toshiba for some info about the HARD drive password and found this interesting document:

    If you are sure that you are using a correct 100% HARD drive password, then it might be possible that you have entered the password incorrectly. It's the only plausible explanation

  • The Web of Toshiba site does not recognize of my drive hard number and P/N

    Hello

    There is a little less than two months, I bought my HDD Toshiba Canvio Basics 3.0 from Amazon. The hard drive has stopped working for some reason any (I drop or something, it simply stopped working).

    Of course, I was trying to use my warranty to repair or Exchange it, but the Web of Toshiba site does not recognize my serial number and product number. They are just there, black and white on the sticker on the back of my hard drive, but the site says they are not valid.

    Someone has an idea what is happening? I would rather not throw 50 euros by the window for less than two months of use.

    Product number is HDTB105XK3AA - and not to HDTB105 * E * K3AA like some sites say (including Amazon).

    Thanks for your help.

    Stand by. Have you contacted Amazon using Amazon options for repair under warranty or Exchange?

    Check please help Amazon option and collect detailed information on defective, damaged or significantly different returns.

    Two years ago I had problem with the mobile phone bought by Amazon and I send direct Amazon with bill Amazon.

    By the way: can you please post the link where you have tried to check the serial number of your HARD drive?

    I have a laptop E1 571 and have been using it with win 10 since its release, had minor problems, but the day of Christmas (from everyday) my hard drive started to make beep sounds and load, only to start menu screen but the hd does not!

    Photo of the scene, taking pictures of the fam on Christmas day and need to load them onto my laptop so I continue to put my mem stick in laptop, copy photos anywhere on disk, but by the time finished my laptop decided to crash. I rebooted it without any problem, but the laptop moved it crashed again and did not the acer logo screen, before you tell me, I have a pxe - e61 media test failure blah blah blah (this is after I have F2ed the hell out of it and changed to the legacy bios.)

    I tried to see if the hard drive would work on my pc, but it made the same beep and does not appear in 'my computer '.

    Do I need a new hard drive or I can solve this problem by using backup/restore discs? I will need to buy or download Acer?

  • New seagate drive hard 6To and powervault md3600i

    Hello

    We have a powervault md3600i and we plan to buy new hard disks to increase its capacity

    We recently encountered this model: http://www.seagate.com/fr/fr/internal-hard-drives/enterprise-hard-drives/hdd/enterprise-capacity-3-5-hdd/#specs

    It is a Seagate 6To sas hard drive

    We wondered if current firmware could support these disks. and if not, is it planned in a future firmware version?

    Thanks for your replies

    Hello jtetillon,

    The latest current firmware for the MD3600i will not be able to take over the disks. These drives also have a 12 GB SAS connection & the MD3600i has only 6GB connections for readers. Now our latest MD38xx of MD34xx & maintain the 12 GB but currently these drives are not supported on the latest firmware as well.

    I would say that if these drives should be supported, it would be on or systems MD34xx & MD38xx, but I don't know in which version of firmware that will be available on.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions.
