ESXi on SATA drives

Is it possible to run ESXi on a Dell PowerEdge T300 server with SATA drives and a single dual-core processor? When I try to install installation encounters an unrecoverable error: no supported device not found to install the VMWare ESXi 3.5.0 image. "Is it because I don't have SCSI drives?

It is more likely the driver specific ESXi is loading for the controller.  Take a look at the last link, and if you still have questions could you post the model and the id for the storage controller PCI?  For controllers of type ICH ESXi does not support RAID arrays just in case this is your configuration.

  • Migrating to SATA drive to iMac

    Four days ago my MacPro (2010) died. I have four 3 "SATA drives from 1 to 2 to each of Mac Pro. The computer was for business and personal use. Absolutely everything (including financial information) I have is on these four discs, including redundant copies of some files, but also my Time Machine backup.

    I will have an envelope coming tomorrow which is a RAID box but will be executed in the independent drive with four drives Mode. My 'new' computer is an iMac (2013), that was given to me.  The iMac and the main SATA drive running the same version of the operating system. I need to resolve this issue quickly so I can return to work. In the immediate future, I intend to operate out of the primary SATA drive to catch up, and then transfer when I'll have a good time to transfer.

    My question is the best way to get the entire contents of the primary SATA drive on the iMac's hard drive. I want everything that is on the main SATA drive to put to be on the iMac (including the prefs and hidden folders) of Mac Pro and it would be the same when I booted the Mac Pro.

    Can I use migration utility, clone the drive SATA main to the iMac or even use the Time Machine backup?

    If I clone the drive, I know that I would have to boot from one disk other than the iMac drive to clone to the iMac. When the primary SATA drive is attached, I need to boot from it by holding down the option key at startup key to select the startup disk.

    If I use the Migration utility, it seems I start the iMac, and then run the utility to the iMac of the SATA drive range, which would be connected to the iMac. This would replace all the information on the iMac even though it was the boot drive?

    I printed the information on the Migration of Apple Mac help when transferring to another storage device, but it's not quite clear to me.

  • Satellite Pro P200 - 17 c: Win XP won't load - installation of the SATA driver

    Hello

    I have a satellite pro p200 - 17 c I've had good years, allways worked without any problem.

    Last week when I booted the laptop, windows won't load and I find myself safe mode selection screen. No options whatsoever me to windows loading, I tried F8 and still nothing.

    I tried the restore cd that reimagee the drive but I get the same thing, I tried a new hard drive, once again the same.

    But if I try to load windows from an OEM to install that software does not because it is a sata drive and there is no floppy drive. I have an external floppy drive I use, but it is not known now.

    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Hello

    Go to BIOS and set it to default settings.

    In this case the SATA mode must be on AHCI. In this case the SATA drivers are required to install the Windows operating system. But as much as I know that Windows 7 already contains the SATA drivers if usually you don t had to add SATA drivers while OS installation the installation program.

    However, here is a nice HowTo document that helps you add SATA drivers for Win XP installation disc.

    Where can I find the driver for SATA drive so I could install Windows XP?
    HARD drive is Hitachi hts 541616j9sa00.

    The SATA driver is part of the Intel Storage Manager.
    You can download the Storage Manager Intel since the European driver Toshiba page.

    The package contains the F6hlpy folder that contains the files needed for the SATA.

    These files must be included for the Windows XP CD using free software called nLite.

    Google for nLite to get and find more details.

  • How do I not what SATA driver do I need for the Satellite L300 - 03C

    How do I not what SATA driver do I need for the Satellite L300 - 03C so I can make nlite

    Hello

    Your laptop seems to be a Satellite L300 - 03C PSLB8C-03C01X.
    As already indicated on your first visit to thread the Toshiba Canada page and choose this model of laptop on the driver page.
    http://209.167.114.38/support/download/ln_bymodel.asp

    Then download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager (SATA) - image of floppy drive. It of for Vista, but the files in this package should work with Win XP too.
    Include these files using nLite to create the new disk Win XP that contains SATA drivers.

    Finally use this disk to start.

  • HP envy 750: attempt to add to new PC SATA drive

    You want new 750-150xt to which I want to add my old Pavilion 6380 640 GB SATA drive.  6380 road was only the disk and the disk to boot under Windows 7 64-bit.  Envy has a 256GB SSD as boot drive and a data HD 1 TB drive.

    Pulled out of 6380 and added to the Bay, third player hooked up a new "SATA3" on MB black SATA cable and power cable to the drive then gave.  Noticed in passing that my SATA cable did not have a ground wire wrapped with her which was attached to the chassis of the new PC.

    By turning on the PC, it would not go beyond the HP splash screen.   Disconnected former player and removed, and the envy of 150 started very well except the logon screen "grated" for 1-2 seconds, then stabilized.  Seems to work normally.

    FYI - SATA3 socket on MB was a red taken versus black and only available SATA labeled sockets.  Others were all occupied.

    Any thoughts?

    So what is the connected CD drive? Must be the SATA 2. If she jumps from the 1 SATA to SATA 3 something should be available here. The question is not only the availability of a place to connect, it is that the software has progressed where you were with this player and Windows 8/10 uses a completely different approach to find and boot from hard drives.

  • There is an option in the bios to set the sata drive * IDE *-mode?

    There is an option in the bios to set the sata drive * IDE *-mode?

    Grobi

    Hi dude

    That s a funny question.
    No, there is no option in the BIOS!

    Please understand that there are various interfaces to drive HARD. IDE and SATA.

    There is a big difference between the two interfaces and the function of the HARD disk on the motherboard controller, you could use a HDD IDE or SATA HDD.

    But you cannot connect a SATA HDD to IDE or IDE HDD controller for the SATA controller. This is not possible due to different hardware.
    This is not possible and that's why these BIOS settings are not available or don t exist!

  • Satellite A300D-15B - need for Windows 64 - bit XP SATA driver

    Hello

    Someone has drivers SATA for Win XP 64-bit for Satellite A300D-15B?

    Kind regards
    Ganesh

    Hello

    As far as I know this laptop Satellite A300D-15B was equipped with AMD chipset and therefore the SATA driver should be part of the ATI graphic driver.

    But you can also install the Win XP without the SATA drivers.
    In the BIOS, you will need to set the mode SATA from AHCI to compatible.

    Then you should be able to install Win XP on this laptop.

  • SAS bays for SATA drives

    Is it possible to put SATA drives in the SAS bays and connect them to the SATA ports?

    Thank you

    Rimokatolik, your simple answer is 'yes '.  SATA drives may be plugged into the connectors SAS the Z800 and later Z8xx series workstations.  This means that the cables of the drive Bay are connected on the SAS (white) connectors on the bottom edge of the motherboard.  Small connects the SATA drives to the SAS controller.  SAS controller works with SATA drives, so you don't have to move cables to the SATA ports to make the SATA disks to work.

    However, if you wish, you can connect the wiring existing SAS to SATA ports on the motherboard and put the SATA drives into the drive bays.
