• Updating ESX 3i 5 - how add/detect a USB external storage on the host drive

  I guess that this has been asked several times in the past, but I can't seem to get this to work for me.  All I want to do is use this USB external drive to back up files hard find in my volume of "datastore1".  I would like to implement a script, or even do it manually, where I tell you about my ESXi host just copy the files in VMFS volume in the external USB storage drive.

  My physical server is a Dell PowerEdge 2950, and it uses ESX 3i update 5.  I use a 250 GB Maxtor One Touch II USB external storage device, and it has been formatted with NTFS.

  Currently, I don't even know the controls able to detect this USB device.   I read only so that my drive to be recognized by the host, it must be ext3 or FAT32.  NTFS would be 'read only '.  I was hoping I could format the external drive through the ESXi (by command line), but maybe I'm deceiving myself.

  Thanks in advance

  I'm sorry to say that you are trying is not possible - external USB are not usable by ESXi or ESX =

• USB port - C Dell XPS 13 9350 and external storage

  Hello everyone,

  I have a 3.1 USB enclosure external (Vantec Nexstar USB 3.1, model # NST - 270a 31 - BK) that I connect to the USB - C (Thunderbird 3) of my XPS 13 laptop 9350 port.  The player does not start even after using two different 3.1 USB cables.  I installed all the USB drivers and Thunderbird from the Dell Web site and active port in the BIOS, but still have no chance to get the player to run.

  That's when I plug the player into a standard USB port with a USB 3.0 cable, boots road to the top and is recognized by the laptop without problem.  So if my diagnosis was made correctly, the USB box and wiring is not defective, so the problem must lie with the USB - C port.  Has anyone successfully used port USB - C to access the external storage with a bit of luck?

  See you soon,.

  In another thread ("XPS 13 9350 - SSD USB C 3.1 - very unstable/not usable '-I can not add links), the following fixed my problem by using a drive HARD USB 3.0 with the Dell USB - C for HDMI/VGA/Ethernet/USB3.1 adapter:

  ... the adapter USB - C and WiFi are kind of material and power wise. If you go to the options of the advance of the WiFi adapter and change the WiFi output at 75%, this solves a lot of problems with the connection / disconnection of USB - C questions. Exit at 75% reduction does not affect your connection on wireless networks.

  My HARD drive kept connect/disconnect when you use the adapter, but this correction took care of her.

• Advice of external storage for use with ESXi 3.5 (free)

  I'm under ESXi 3.5 (free) on a server with internal storage.  I would buy external storage and switch my VM to it.  The virtual machines that I have running on the server are not used very often, so I don't want to put a lot in it.  Can anyone recommend an external SAN/NAS storage device that would work with ESXi 3.5 (free)?  I'm looking for maybe 500 GB - 1 TB connected to the network via Ethernet.

  Less than the price of Iomega devices (the ~ $300 model) are sold to a group of work so not really high performance. If you find that this performance was not acceptable, you'd have no way to improve the system.

  I would like to use your existing NAS NFS features. If this does not work out, you can always go for something with more umph.

  If it is a lab test the Iomega should be fine. If it has an environment that can grow in size requirements and performance over time, you might want to try to build a more powerful Openfiler SAN/NAS.

  First try your existing infrastructure.

• 10 improvement of the Windows path hangs on "place the external storage and press OK.

  Hello

  This will be my first post on this forum.

  A couple of weeks ago, I bought a Toshiba SATELLITE CL10-B-103 for my son. The CL10-B-103 has installed Windows 8.1. Tonight I plan to make the installation of the Windows 10 upgrade because Windows 8.1 announced that he was ready for the upgrade.

  The trial progressed slowly but smooth and without problems until now... As the laptop is equipped with only an HD 32 GB the trial upgrade was informed that I had to stick a USB key. After that, the trial continues slowly but smoothly, but who did not question because I had all night. However after the first reboot of the system when he was about 60 or 66% of installation of process this error message showed: place the external storage and press OK. It's very strange since the key USB has been removed at all and was still in the system. It is strange, is that both the OK button as the Cancel button are not selectable. Without passing by the touchpad, not a tab or an entry.

  Some community online Windows 10 post mentions that, via the BIOS, the system must be initiated from this USB key. I tried to reboot the system with DEL, F2 or F8, but I couldn't get into the BIOS and wasn't able to change the boot sequence.

  After each "restart" the same error message appears. It does not matter that the USB is in it or not.

  So, my conclusion is that my CL10-B-103 is suspended/East in a loop. I don't know how to proceed.

  Please, I can really use some help.

  Thanks in advance.

  Because it seems that I can not only edit/change a message I am answering my own post now...

  The problem seems to be resolved. When I was able to use the touchpad I could push the OK butten and the upgrade product now.

• Mac Pro, Flash Storage, Dropbox, and external storage Solutions

  I am considering a Mac Pro to a computer in the enterprise. I hope someone can give an overview and experience with the dilemma of using a computer with a small amount of storage on board, dropbox and external storage devices.

  Background:

  Mac Pro storage on board - The Mac Pro has limited onboard storage. It comes with a 256 k flash memory and is apparently expandable to 512 or 1 TB. But, I can not even know where to buy the storage upgrade. For some reason, it seems even to be available for purchase on Apple's site. I can't understand how much it costs or where to buy it. I found a link showing how to install it, but that's all.

  Dropbox - Dropbox is an important part of the company, or at least my business. The tricky thing is that Dropbox doesn't seem to work very well if this does not work on an operating system main hard drive. I tried once on a Mac Mini Server, and it does not work well. I read on the Dropbox site that it doesn't work so well. The small amount of storage on board available for the Mac Pro means that it is necessary to use an external drive, which is fine with me, with the exception of the question of Dropbox. Is anyone here from an experience with this problem.

  External storage - the question here is as stated above. How to get an external drive on a Mac Pro, the operating system is not installed on, to work properly. I know that most people could read this and suggest to go to the website of Dropbox support for more information. I was able to do that and have nothing. Looking for Mac people who could potentially experience.

  In short, how the hell you upgrade Mac Pro flash storage... where do you get, and how much it costs?  And second, anyone experience using Dropbox on a Mac Pro, where the Dropbox folder is not located on the operating system drive.

  Thanks for any help that can be provided.

  -Apple does not sell to replace internal storage.

  -You can often find storage on eBay and other places. However, isn't that all in storage for some MacBook Pro model will work in the Mac Pro is much slower. One way to tell is that the MacBook you do not have a heatsink on them while the Mac Pro.

  -You can buy external storage Thunderbolt. To access only a disc both an external case USB 3/disc is about as fast as Thunderbolt. Can get pregnant using the portable 2 1/2 standard SSD

  -I did not all the posts here for the use of DB on an external drive.

• HP Envy 15-j139TX: the BIOS using external storage recovery does not work.

  My HP Envy 15-j139TX got stuck (frozen) and I force closure by long pressing the power button. I tried to start by pressing the power button, it shows a black screen (display off) and the capslock continues to Flash.

  I did research on the problem and discovered that the issue was "the BIOS corruption failure" according to the information on the link below:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01732674/

  I tried to recover the BIOS using an external storage device by following the instructions at the link below:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02693833

  But it did not work. The lights keep flashing. I have my files b.SC. thesis on the computer and their need for pronto. (If not my life is pretty well made)

  I also couldn't find the files for version 10 of Windows (64-bit) to my laptop, so I tried with one I downloaded from another site and I got a BIOS of Windows 8.1 HP site.

  Is there anyway I can fix it soon or get my files as soon as possible. Help, please!

  Have you ever updated the BIOS before?

  If you have, you should be able to recover the BIOS using the Windows key + key B method.

  All holding the key Windows + B button down, press the power button and wait to see if the laptop responds with a message of recovery of the BIOS on screen.

  As my wife continued his mastery, I insisted on his recording of his files periodically to our home network NAS.

  You can remove the hard drive and connect it to a desktop computer to get the files from it. You can connect the hard drive to a USB to sata cable to connect it to a laptop.   Instructions to access the disk by opening the back door are on page 42 of the maintenance and service guide. The hard drive is part replaceable by the user, so you don't have to worry about voiding the warranty.

  Your notebook is new enough to have the recovery key enter BIOS update available. Use the F.65 version in the Windows 8.1 driver download section. the softpaq is at the following ADDRESS.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp69501-70000/sp69886.exe

  You will need at least 256 MB usb key to create a USB rcovery to recover the BIOS with. BIOS update softpaq will offer the opportunity of creating a recovery USB. I used the method on multiple occasions and it worked for me.

• WRT1900AC of external storage outside the Local network

  I'm trying to set up my WRT1900AC router to access a USB attached as an external storage device. I can access the drive when I'm on the LAN, but I had no success accessing outside my local network. I enabled the FTP option in the section of external storage. With the FTP option is enabled, it then points me to the IP address that my cable modem ISP attributed to the router (192.168.0.2). Obviously this won't work from the outside world because it is not the IPV6 address. I install my modem cable to the port before 21-the 192.168.0.2 address and tried to access from outside by using my address IPV6 (ftp://77.XX.XXX.XX:21) but it will not connect. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction, as I obviously don't do something here.

  Hello, Steve99888. You must configure the settings of folder first. Check out this link.

• WRT1900AC - external storage - not detected

  I have an external storage drive is not detected. I can plug in a USB key on the router and have found things. When I plug my external hard drive into the router, I get the name of the drive but the router does not detect the size, and I can't access the drive. The only error I get is on the Media Server tab when I click on add a new folder:

  /jnap/storage/ListSubdirectories -- Status: 200 OK

   Server: lighttpd/1.4.34
   Connection: close

   Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
  

  When I contacted Linksys support they said essentially that since my drive hard is not on their approved list, has nothing they will do to help understand why things don't work. I tried to plug my drive into a computer and everything works so I know the drive itself is good. It's just a matter of getting the router also detect the drive. The drive is formatted in NTFS.

  The router says it's firmware is up to date 1.1.10.167514. I tried to reboot the router. The only thing I have not tried yet is a factory reset.

  It solved!

  The only way that I came to this solution was to use Linux. When I tried to plug the drive into a machine Windows the drive appears fine, but when I plugged the drive on a Linux machine and tried to mount it, I got a message saying that he could not climb because of some windows something or other. I think it happened, I had originally this drive in a windows-based Office Tower. I probably throught windows stopped but in reality it is only in hibernation. So the left Hibernate trace settings on the drive after I unplugged and tried to plug it into the router. The solution was to reconnect the drive on the windows machine, make a clean shutdown and then try to plug in the router. Once the router has seen the car and ability. I still had to tell the router to restart so that other computers can access the network share, but in the end, everything works fine.

  I am just posting this in case someone else found this useful if they have they previously used on another computer in the car, do a clean shutdown before attempting to connect to the router.

• WRT1900AC external storage and Windows 8.1

  I just upgraded this router after that Time Warner gave me a free upgrade to 200 Mbps.

  Everything is faster, make more SOON!

  My new laptop has got 206 Mbps 5.0 GHz Wireless.

  But, the laptop is running Windows 8.1, and I think it is the problem of external storage.

  I plugged a USB3 32 GB USB drive and a hard disk of 1 TB in USB1 and USB2, with the same result.

  On my desk, I see an icon for the Twonky Media Server and a folder of files to external storage.

  On my laptop, I see the Twonkymedia icon, but no folder.

  The laptop can music, videos and photos.  But there is no way to access any files outside media.

  The Office has a "Home" network, but the Windows laptop 8.1 has a "Private" network

  I put the laptop to share and can be transferred back and forth between the two computers.

  I don't see this as a case of breakage, but it would be nice to make it work.

  I have no experience network Windows 8/8.1.  I'm a fanboy of Windows 7.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  To access media files from any computer on your network. Look in the storage of the router section and use the links provided to access the files.

• Persistence of info external storage device music

  I have a 16 GB USB with adapter OTG. Because I'm running out of space on my phone, I keep my music on the USB port. I can download music info (which is a bit incorrect, but that's another story) for music, but as soon as I eject the USB, all the music info is lost. This only happens when the phone is turned on. Is there a way to stop the lost music info when external storage devices are removed with music on them?

  Yes: Connect this USB to your PC and use software Media Go update info music, phone updates is stored locally on the phone itself, so if you remove the USB key, reset the phone or deleted from the media database updates will be lost. Also is it better to update the media on the USB.

• How can I save my apple devices using external storage

  How can I back up all my apple devices using external storage and not iCloud and iTunes

  iDevices are designed only for backup of iCloud or your computer using iTunes. If you make regular backups of your iDevices to your computer using iTunes and back up your computer, then you will have a backup stored on the computer and your backup disk. You can also backup to the cloud for extra protection and convenience.

• What external storage disk is good?

  I want to buy I drive or external storage. I m from the India. Could someone recommend a good brand? I am owner of iPhone OS and iPad Air 2.

  External drives will not work with an iPhone or an iPad. You would need a wireless for external storage drive. There are any number of such around Seagate, Western Digital, etc. They should all be OK to use it.
