Eject USB HDD, will not stop turning.

When my XP external HARD disc is ejected, he would stop turning after the message "remove" and woud dim light. I then unplug the unit and comfortable to do so. 7 after the ejection of HARD drive and move the message to 'remove', my continued drive to turn, and the light is more stumping. I'm worried that disconnect in this State eventually, if not immediately, negatively affect my drive. Does anyone have any ideas on this.

Hello Tyler79durdan,

Thank you for your message.  To elaborate on the post of bika, this feature has been by design, it allows people to continue to load specific devices (phones, mp3 players, etc.) once they were ejected from the aircraft.  Once you have removed your device safely, you will incur no damage even if the light is still on.  Are you sure that the grinding you hear isn't a fan in the system so that there are still cold?
See you soon

  • External 500 GB USB HDD will not show in my computer

    I recently bought the above named product, which worked great until the other day when for some unknown reason, the drive was more on the function of my computer.

    I followed the troubleshooting tips/FAQ and this has not solved the problem. The computer recognizes that the hard drive is there, as it appears on the list of devices USB/material and under removable storage in the computer Mgt (when you right-click on my computer and select Manage), but I couldn't go in the Councils of troubleshooting/FAQ that the drive is not accessible.

    I fear that all my music (recently transferred to it) is lost forever.

    Please, someone tell me I'm wrong. Any ideas people?

    Thank you

    If all goes well it of not a hardware problem.
    Well. Have you tried to connect this drive external DRIVE on another computer?
    If this is not the case, check this box!

    In a little more, I recommend to unplug the laptop HARD drive and remove all the USB ports on the Device Manager.
    After the new reboot the operating system should recognize the USB controllers again and needs to be reinstalled USB drivers.

    After this short statement, try to connect the HARD drive to the laptop.

    I wish you good luck

  • Satellite Pro L10 - USB port will not recognize devices

    Hello

    I got a L10 for 18 months. Under the guarantee, I got a replacement motherboard mounted. Everything has been ok so far. A USB port will not recognize devices, a port is ok, but randomly turns off a device attached to it and comes up with the message "USB device not recognized". The third port is ok all the time.

    Any solutions or suggestions?

    Post edited by: caddy

    I guess there is not enough power on the USB ports and external devices may not work correctly. It is not easy to say why this happens, but there may be a problem of welding.

    I recommend you contact the service again as soon as possible.

  • Laptop will not stop or sleep

    Hello

    I recently bought an Acer E5-571-54YJ.

    The laptop works very well and fits my needs for the school.

    Only problem I have with it is that it will not stop or go into sleepmode.

    When I stopped it after a few seconds when the screen goes black I mean the closed disc and fans to stop spinning, but blue remains on. I must then manually turn it off by holding the power button.

    Even with its in sleep mode. The light stays on and I can't turn it back on again. I have to first manually stopped in now the power button and then start it upward.

    I tried to disable the quick start, but this does not solve the problem.
    I hope someone can help me quickly because it's really annoying that I can't put it in mode 'sleep'.

    If you want more information, just ask.

    Greetings,

    Jean-Paul

    First of all, make sure that you have the latest version of the BIOS.  If the update to the latest version of the BIOS fixes the problem, then please don't read any more.  If the update to the latest version of the BIOS doesn't fix it, then continue reading.

    Do not read anything below, or attempt anything below unless you have the latest version of the BIOS and will always have the problem.

    If you have Haswell-ATU as the computer linked below - i5 4210U, then the only two known workarounds I know are using the Intel Management Engine interface driver 8.1 Windows 9.5 or install Intel MEI 11.0.0.1181.   If you have Intel Management Engine interface driver 11.0.0.1146 installed, it would be the problem.

    Internet search or this forum.  There are tens of thousands of messages that describe problems associated with sleep/stop Haswell-ATU and Windows 10 and usually driver boost a/k/a turbo Intel MEI 11.0.0.1146 11.0.0.1146.

    Yet once, most people use the 9.5 intel management engine interface driver (a Windows 8.1 driver) as a workaround to resolve the problem.  Go to Device Manager and try to restore.  Roll back may or may not give you the Windows 8.1 driver.  You may need to install it manually.

  • USB flashdrive will not cut because it uses Finder

    This happens often but not always.  Flash drive USB Sandisk will not - cut with the message that "the Finder is to use.  As far as I know, nothing is open.

    The message also says that if I use force quit, I can damage the USB drive.

    You have all the flash drives, and if so, are they the same thing?

  • The SPACEBAR keystroke will not stop.

    My iMac recently started having a problem where the system gets a touch SPACEBAR which will not stop. I think that is what is happening based on the spaces added to the text on the screen in different applications, and from the keyboard Viewer which shows the SPACEBAR constantly depressed.

    This isn't a device keyboard problem. I tried several keyboards. I also tried to unplug all connected to the mac and rebooting. The problem persists. I stop after several reboots (which seems a coincidence). I have also reset the PRAM, which seemed to have fixed, but now he is back (after about 24 hours).

    I don't know what else to try. I have not installed new hardware in the computer, since I bought it (upgrade of ram). It worked fine for 1.5 years.

    Try resetting the SMC by iMac SMC and PRAM reset, it may take several resets to work.
