drive hard 500 GB showing 465 GB

my new is500gb to drive hard, but after the XP installation window, I found the new HDD are showing only 465 GB. Why it doesn't show 500 GB. Where the 35 GB went. Please help me get back the same... My setup is ASUS P8H67-M LE WITH INTEL i3 PROCESSOR WITH 4 GB of RAM

The word "gigabyte" actually has two values. Referring to the size of the RAM and the file sizes, it includes a binary definition of 1024 to the power of 3 (1 073 741 824 bytes). For any other use, it is 1000 to the power of 3 (1,000,000,000). 500GB hard drive contains about 500 billion but only 465 GB characters in the jargon 'computer '. HARD drive manufacturers, naturally, to refer to the higher figure.

  • Replace the hard drive of 500 GB with 256GB SSD in spectrum XT Touchsmart

    I tried to replace the HARD drive of 500 GB with 256 GB Samsung SSD and then began to install it using the external DVD drive, but during installation without disk hard were found. What I have to disable certain BIOS settings or I need to install the SSD in a separate location. Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.

    Yupp, I could install an SSD. You need to install the drivers for RAID Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) driver (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=22194&ProductFamily=Software+Products&ProductLine=Chipset+Software&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Rapid+Storage+Technology+ (Intel % C2% AE + RST) & lang = fre) during the installation of Windows 8. I extracted the drivers for USB and everything by choosing which device to install windows 8 installed drivers.

    After that, the SSD has been detected and the simple installation procedure. I pasted the link for the driver, don't know whether or not it will get removed. In case it is removed just search driver RAID Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST).

  • IS does not recognize the drive HARD internal

    I have three, all from a school lab, that have been linked with other positive points and printers.

    They are connected are not together anymore.

    All three have a floppy drive and a HARD drive. Will only boot from the HARD drive.

    At startup, the other two do not recognize their HARD drive and I use ea disk with the system in this regard.

    Since hard drives are not 'seen' I am unable to do anything with them: fix, set up as a boot drive, etc.

    They begin with the usual chimes and the Mac with the question mark, I slip the disk in and they complete commissioning.

    The internal drive spin up and the indicator light flashes.

    They do not show the drive HARD internal on the screen, but will show an external.

    I haven't started to swap parts between the good and the other two.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to activate an invisible HARD drive?

    You will need to use the boot floppy disks to start the machines to run the repair disk, partition and format the HARD drive if it is still functional. Only then can you install Mac OS on the HARD drive. That's all that I remember.

  • Satego X 200 21U: drive HARD internal not external usable after upgrade

    First, I changed the system to a 500 GB HARD drive, and everything was good. The old drive was not usable extern, so I left it as an emergency backup device.
    After a few weeks, I did the upgrade even to the second HARD drive, and again the old drive is not usable in my extern Dockingstation.
    Does anyone have a good idea what causes this problem? The HARD drives are locking the entire system, if I try to access and some formatting.

    Hello

    What do you mean by is not usable in my external docking station?

    I assume that you have placed the 2.5 HARD disk in a USB enclosure that allows to connect the HARD drive to the computer USB port.
    Is this good? So what harm s? Is not recognized USB HARD drive or what?
    Have you tried to connect different computers HARD drive?
    Otherwise, to do this

    But if the HARD drive is not accessible, using the case of USB, or use inside the laptop, then I would say it is a HARD drive malfunction

    Why this is happening?
    The writing and the reading drive HARD is a physical process which underline the material parts such parts can still die

  • Drive HARD Toshiba guaranteed external profile corruption

    I have a Toshiba secured 200 GB device. I moved some data from my laptop with Windows Vista 32 bit Edition on this disc.
    Then I tried to work with this pluging of data from the device on my new laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Edition.
    There was an error and the certificates to mount the drive on the new system (this is what Windows)

    Now I have can´t access to my data or on Vista or Windows 7.

    The unit shows a log of errors with this report: "the secured unit may be abruptly removed or disconnected.
    Reboot the system and plug the device to solve this problem. »

    No matter how many times I reboot my computer and repeat the process, there is no way to access my data again.
    I can record a new finger but I Don t want to lose the chance to recover my data.

    Any idea, please?

    Thank you very much.

    In my opinion, you should contact Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They should provide support for the Toshiba device.
    Maybe they can you give some advice or even access your data for you.

    If you have activated the link to parts store, I've included it should show hard drives available for your model and prices for your area. If you prefer to fix it as a repair, then telephone HP support, please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question. Once your case is created, you should get the number to use to contact HP. If you do not live in the United States / Canada, please click on the link below to get contact information for your region. http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/contact-HP/WW-phone-assist.html

    Either by the way, if you have only one hard drive installed which is the normal case, the size of your hard drive will be the sum of all partition sizes as well as all space not yet allocated.

    I hope this helps.

  • Mystery needs Solution! Drive hard dv6258se

    Hello

    I recently got an error #1-07 on my test diagnostic message and decided to replace my hardrive.  I checked the specs for my box and ordered a SSD drive suitable to replace the original disc.  Or at least I thought it was the original drive.  The form of State that my box comes with a SATA I drive, but the bios and Device Manager claim that the drive is SCSI.  My box has been recalled twice to correct the defects/factory model, pourrait HP replaced the SATA drive with SCSI drive during this time?  I check the model number two disks to check what they are, but that did not really help since the original Toshiba MK1234GSX both the new 830 SSD from Samsung come in SATA and SCSI.  I checked the Samsung is SATA, but cannot confirm the Toshiba.

     

    I could format and restore the SSD from the restore disks, but restarting failed and the bios did not find the hard drive.  Subsequent attempts to restart grew up a NVIDIA, read error.  When I put the disc Toshiba back in it starts but is still VERY slow.  Click, wait 10 minutes, click, wait...

     

    Everything I read on the State of the boards that the default value of the bios is SATA, but retoring bios factory settings has not solved the problem.

     

    What is going on?  Please help and advise.

     

    Thank you.

     

    PS being new I accidentlally posted in the wrong place: you will find a more detailed description in the Desktop section, where I posted recently submitted: hp dv6258se drive hard toshiba appearing as SCSI but spec says SATA

     

    Yes, him talking about HP guy to me and I even found many other complaints about the disks SATA is read as a SCSI, it was a common occurrence from 06-08 and then had no performance impact that is a possible reason why the SSD is not compatible in theory it should be.

    .. .He explained that because player plugs directly into the motherboard and the chipset software is only formatted to read things a specific way that it will NEVER be read a SATA as a SATA, which might be why the dv6000 are not able to recognize any SSD.  I.E. HP dv6000 is capricious and has a few quirks, if SSD does not occur.

    So I'm going to buy a traditional HD, a cert HP technician think I should be able to go as high as a 500 GB HD, but I really just to get my box of operation, so I agree with a 120 GB.

    Thanks for your help solved mystery.

  • Alienware x 51 try re-installing drive HARD drive not found

    I have an Alienware x 51 which caused me a few problems. When I turn on my computer, it shows me a black screen with the following text: "drive hard internal not found to fix this problem, try reinstalling the drive. No bootable device. Strike F1 to retry boot, F2 to enter setup Menu, F5 to enter PSA"

    F1 restarts and returns me to this screen

    When I press F2 it sends me to the installation Menu, once if I hit the ESC key and exit without saving my computer starts and allows to connect me, etc.

    I tried reinstalling the drive and finally hit a brick wall. Any thoughts?

    Hello

    Have you tried to run the PSA test? If this isn't the case, please do so to confirm if you receive errors. Also check in Bios (to access the Bios, the tap button F2 when starting) in order to confirm if the drive is detected it.

  • is it possible to see EVERY folder and file that exists on the drive hard on one screen and in one place just as you could do in much older versions.

    OK... so I had an accident and there was good and bad news... the good news is that I was able to get it started and running "Save", but the bad news is that instead of giving a new image system clean (as I expected), I had a bunch of random pictures and other unimportant things and many important things seems lost but I think that its still all somewhere.

    now... to the front sometimes there was a windows program called "windows explorer" that would put all folders and all files that was on the hard drive on a single screen, and you can search through them.    When I shoot to the top of the Explorer windows on win 7, I get a page with a bunch of files minor that some things in them, but not what I see already...

    so... my question is simply "is it possible to see EACH file and a file that exists on the drive hard on one screen and in one place just as you do in earlier versions.    I did some research and went thru records that he will show me but I explicitly want is to see EACH file and folder that exists on one screen...

    is it possible in win 7?   and if so, how, please

    Steven

    Steve,

    Are you talking about the Windows Search function?

    In Windows Explorer, open the top-level folder that you want to watch in [C:\Users\yourusername\Documents or whatever it is you want] then look in the upper right area - there is a white box to the right of the address bar.  This is the search box.  Type * and then pause and it lists all the files in this top-level folder down through its subfolders.
