dv7-3173nr hard Max disk size

I'm trying to find the maximum size of the hard drive that can be used internally, as the second drive on my dv7-3173nr laptop. It came with a 500 GB drive primary, split into a bunch of partitions: Local disk (C, RECOVERY (D, HP_TOOLS (E, & SYSTEM (G I don't really know what it's all about.))))

My system is Windows 7 64-bit OS, 6 GB of ram.

But what is the maximum size for the secondary Bay?

And what is the partitioning on the main drive?

I already bought the kit, thanks for the info!

  • Drive HARD Max size for Satellite 3000-514 with BIOS 2.30

    Hi people!

    What is the largest size HD notebook with BIOS 2.30 recognizes.
    I have not found any FAQ information ragarding this version of BIOS.

    Thx for your help.

    Hello

    Satellite 3000-514 supports the HARD disk sizes up to 30 GB.
    You need a disk HARD 2.5 ", the 9.5 mm support bus master IDE, synchronous Ultra DMA 33/66

    Larger sizes of HARD drive are not supported, and I guess that the BIOS will not recognize it.

  • Envy touchsmart 15 - new HARD disk size

    I recently ordered a Touchsmart from HP Envy 15-j005sa that has a 1 TB HARD drive. I'm looking to clone the orignial in an mSATA SSD drive so I was wondering what size is recommended.  How much space is used when it is new so using this information can buy a large enough disk size?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    There is that little clone options b clone the HARD disk which means that you have the mSATA SSD equal or more 1 TB (b) clone c ONLY: This means you the mSATA SSD equal or superior to c:... My suggestion: shrink C: for small size say even 60 GB or 120 GB (if you don't have a lot of programs installed) FRONT of clone and ONLY clone C: normally larger (capacity) is better because you can install more programs that him.

    Kind regards.

    1. the first thing to do is to make sure that the computer is completely virus/malware-free. Googling around this error produced quite a few links where the posters were or had been infected with Spyware Protect 2009 rogue.

    Once the scanning is complete (do not skip the preparatory stages no more), if the problem persists:

    2. double-click on my computer, right-click the icon for your hard drive, click left to get its properties. If you see options to set Quota management make sure that they are disabled.

    3. in the case - BUT ONLY AFTER YOU ARE sure THAT THE MACHINE IS MALWARE/VIRUS-FREE - copy the lines between asterisks (not including the asterisks) below and paste it into Notepad. Save as undopolicy.reg somewhere, you will find. And then double-click the .reg file, that you have just made to melt in your registry. I hope that this will take care of the issue.

  • disk size problm after copying a large file to the VM then disconnected

    Dear Sir

    I have a VM with allowances dynamic storage virtual hard drive of 300 GB,.

    HE on that disk space is 50 GB.

    Ive copied on it a 100 GB file so now space space disc is 150 GB and 150 GB is free.

    Ive deleted the file 100 GB of the virtual machine, but am supersized now that the file of the virtual machine is still 150 GB in size.

    What should do? as it fits the 50 GB after deleting the file from the virtual machine.

    Hello

    Yes it is planned.

    You have copied a huge file in the virtual computer-> who is the virtual disk in order to accommodate the new file->

    You remove the huge file-> your take off just to comments operating system, the file in the list of the directory->

    Your data is still there, it does not erase the data and rewrite from scratch.

    In order to recover the disk space, you need a number of things:

    -first of all your guests, OS file system must be supported (Windows FAT/NTFS is)

    -Your guest must be stopped

    -The type of the guest operating system disk should not be preallocated.

    -Your host operating system might need a lot of free space on the drive according to your VM disk configuration.

    If stored in several files, you must have a few GB free (size of the Ramdisk / 32) Go, but say more than 4 GB, keep 10 GB free to be on the safe side.

    If your virtual machine is stored in a single file, so you must have your used VM disk size + a few GB of free... for example. If your virtual disk is currently using 200 GB you need tell 204 GB free before starting the operation of a compact disc.

    Then in the configuration of VMware go into settings of virtual machines:

    Use the 'Compact disc' button.

    Be very very patient and wait, because you want to get 100GB which will take some time.

  • How to get the maximum disk size for a powershell prompt

    Hi guys

    I tried all day to get the value of the maximum disk size allocated to a virtual machine. Using get - view I can see the actual size of disc but when I look at VM via 'Edit Machine' I see ' hard disk 1' ability to 40 GB and and size maximum (GB) to 97.5 - How do I get this maximum size via powershell?

    See you soon

    Sparky

    Near there, it is actually the amount of free space on the data store over the current size of the hard drive.

    With this script, you can calculate the value

    foreach($dev in (Get-VM  | Get-View).Config.Hardware.Device){
      if($dev.DeviceInfo.Label -like "Hard Disk*"){
        $dsFree = (Get-Datastore (Get-View -Id $dev.Backing.Datastore).Info.Name).FreeSpaceMB
         $diskSize = ($dev.CapacityInKB / 1Kb)
         $MaxSize = $dsFree + $diskSize
         Write-Host "Maximum size for" $dev.DeviceInfo.Label "=" ("{0:f2}" -f (($dsFree + $disksize)/ 1Kb)) "Gb"
      }
    }

  • The BluRay drive firmware - DV7-3173nr

    I just got a replacement for my computer drive laptop dv7-3173nr and I put it in, and I can't get the right drivers for it. The exact command I ordered is the one

    http://www.mydvddrives.com/replacement-for-HP-Pavilion-dv7-3173nr-SATA-BD-ROM-Blu-ray-combo-drive-13...

    He said it is impossible to install the driver, and the Drivers of HP section doesn't seem to have what I need.

    Avoid the need for a driver. Windows simply needs to see the new device and if you put in a disc it installs with a drive letter. You have probably a superior and inferior question registry filter and you can try this automatic repair of Microsoft or manual registry fixes described here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/982116

    Be sure and expand all the positives on the page you can see all the instructions. I guess that you have Windows 7.

    Once you get the drive recognized under Windows there are of course some software that must be installed before you can watch Blu - Ray movies.

  • How to access and replace a pavilion dv7-3173nr cooling fan?

    Pavilion dv7-3173nr member of my family had a cooling fan stop working. This has been noticed during my usual maintenance of it where I take a can of compressed air and spray to clean the fan. As he hit the air I was expecting the fan to turn but it did not. I've then turn it on to see if it would turn but it would turn still not. The warranty just missed in recent weeks and the manuals and other resources that I've found so far do not help. If someone could tell me how to access the fan for this model, it would be appreciated.
