External drive USB 2.0 on a virtual guest machine

• What brand of external drive USB/eSATA can save a Virtual Machine to host Windows 7 operating system?

  People,

  Hello. I use 3 Player VM and Guest OS Windows Server 2003. The host OS is Windows 7. I need to increase the size of the VM disk, so who can install several systems in the guest OS. Before you increase the size of the virtual disk, I need to back up the virtual machine hard disk external. It is to copy and paste the "C:\VirtualMachine\" folder in the hard disk external.

  I just bought an external hard drive that is "Western Digital My Passport Essential 500 GB USB 3.0" and its software is "WD SmartWare". It seems that the software can back up the entire hard drive only. Alternatively, the backup files by selecting the types (music, photo, document, movies). But can not save a folder "C:\VirtualMachine\".

  So my question is: what brand of external drive USB/eSATA can save a Virtual Machine to host Windows 7 operating system?

  These two questions do not apply if you have a virtual machine.

• External drive USB 500 GB PX1394E burp and more

  Since yesterday, my external 500 GB Toshiba USB drive burp more.
  The LED becomes red instead of blue when I turn it on. Needless to say that my entire CD collection is on it, so it is quite a mess.

  What are my options now?

  I bought the external drive in Germany, a little less than a year ago, model Toshiba PX1394E - 3 50.
  Stupidly, I can't find the receipt anymore, so it won't help if I just bring it back to the shop.

  Where Toshiba can I apply for?

  How can I open the case to see if the drive is broken, or just the USB interface?
  The enclosure has two small screws, but by unscrewing seems to have no effect, it seems that they are just to fix a foot plate support.

  Help, please! It is a nighmare!

  Thank you kind
  Ulf

  > How can I open the case to see if the drive is broken, or just the USB interface?
  Don t what a controller can be broken. If something is broken, then this might be just the HARD drive.

  If the HARD drive burp more then the hardware failure is possible and only a replacement can help you. Stupidly that you can't find the verification of sales because it is necessary to get a replacement under warranty

• External drives, USB, USB Flash Drives, "driver software device is not installed. Problem Acer and Windows 7

  Not sure one I'm more frustrated with.  Acer or Microsoft

  Try to get decent customer service out either seems so difficult.

  OK, it's a pretty common problem.  I've seen this around other forums and each finger to Microsoft points.

  Flash USB, Jump Drives thumb drives, Memory Sticks, players, whatever they are called, they do not work on my Acer laptop.  Everything works still perfectly on my Vista PC and my work XP.  So they are not damaged.  Also an external Freecom USB 1 TB drive.  Does not work on Windows 7.

  I have an Acer 5338 (less than one year) which unfortunately as as a manufacturer OEM for Microsoft Windows are not interested in help to say that there is problem Acer.  ACERS site does not even recognize the existence of the cell phone model I which makes contact them for a solution physically impossible (everyone has a phone number or e-mail address >).  In any case, they had a free upgrade to Win 7.  (Oh you can't imagine how much I care that I didn't...).

  So I've updated.  And all USB memory devices do not work all of a sudden.

  All of them try to load drivers then give up with the error message.

  Just to get the usual answers to the road!

  • I tested the USB ports.  All work.
  • I uninstalled all the USB ports and let the Win 7 to reinstall. No problem
  • I deleted the file that records discs.
  • I made a new clean install.  Nothing has changed.
  • Cannot switch the chipset drivers.  Won't let me, says I don't need them
  • Each drive is displayed during the startup screen.
  • Each drive appears in Device Manager but the poster as a fault.
  • Updated installed, removed, re-installed all the drivers on the planet.
  • Tried the solution of "regedit" suggested elsewhere, temptation of power my laptop, lucky I system restored to the top.
  • Does not appear in disk management, so cannot deal with any drive letter conflict.
  • Have no viruses.
  • Have one firewall installed.
  • Prayed
  • Touched the thing of reversal
  • Pleaded
  • Pretended to cry.  Not interested.

  So, I'm hoping against hope that someone has a solution to this problem.  I have a vague idea that it might be something to do with the "ports" and the port settings.  I'm afraid is a closed book to me, so please, geniuses everywhere, please help!  Give me something new to try!

  Or a way to talk to a human being at Acer!

  Hi davec07510,
   
  We use Windows 7 and have not encountered this problem on computers. This issue is occurring on your computer may be due to the driver or hardware that does not support Windows 7.
   
  The compatible chipset driver installation Windows 7 can help.

• Data on external drive USB store

  According to the guide configuration (v4.1, p76), you can create a data store on an external usb drive connected to the host.  I have no problem seen VMs see and use USB host drives, but I don't see the USB on the list of storage adapters, configuring the host tab.  (I made sure that the USB is not assigned to a virtual machine).

  Y at - there a trick to this?

  You cannot use a USB device to store virtual machines - it can only be used as the virtual computer device can attach to and yes I know the documentation is somewhat misleading.

• Tecra S3 external drive usb disconnects on all usb ports

  Hello

  I have a Tecra S3 with the following problem:

  When you work with external storage devices, my devices disconnect by them - same (somethimes) after somethimes 5 minutes after 1/2 hour and when working with multiple devices all devices disconnect at the same time, a place of the problem on each usb connection.
  I tried various storage devices such as sticks of memory cards sd with a usb adapter and hard drives.
  How can I tell if the problem is hardware or software partners?

  Greetings,

  Marco

  It seems that your usb devices sometimes need ampere more supplies (500mA max) usb port.
  Establish an external usb hub and connect your storage devices. The usb hub must be active (with adapter)!
  It should work.

• Win XP virtual machine can write to an NTFS external drive?

  Hello

  I bought VMware Fusion to play a WIN XP on my Mac.

  I am aware that a Mac can read but not write to an NTFS external drive.

  But can the virtual machine XP write without problem on a NTFS external drive or has the same limitation as the host machine?

  Thank you very much.

  Bar Tomás

  An external USB disk can be connected ("attached") to a virtual machine once that the host (OSX) has ejected ("freed from the control of ') same USB. This means that all partitions will be completely controlled ("read/write") by the virtual machine guest operating system.

• Disk utility does not see an external drive on my network

  I'm trying to reformat the external drive that I use for backup on Time Machine, but disk utility does not see it. She appears in the Finder as a shared drive. I use OS x 10.11.6. Thank you.

  Disk utility is not supposed to see the network drives.

  If it's a USB, connect it to your computer.

  If it's an Ethernet or wireless, using a utility specifically designed for this.

• OKR: The restoration of EXTERNAL drive?

  I have beautifully OKR working for me. However, when I choose "System Recovery", it only show up with selecting in C: or D: (partitions on the drive HARD internal only). It won't let me choose backups that she herself created on my external USB HDD (f).

  How can I tell OKR to select a backup created on an external USB HDD?

  Found the solution!

  1. The first partition on the USB external drive must be an Active partition FAT32.
  2. The second partition on this external drive USB (the one that stores backups OKR) must be an NTFS partition.

  Once I did, OKR identified the two partitions with no problems (in the form of readers i and J :) and has been able to see these images of OKR backup and restore from them.)

• External drive has failed

  I have a terabyte external drive that I use for backup with Time Machine. When I restarted my iMac this morning there was a mistake that OSX could not write the disk. It is said that he can still read, but not write (plenty of space on the disk). I tried to run disk first aid on the disk but it completely after about a minute and said: 'first aid process has failed. If it is possible to backup the data on this volume. Click OK to continue. Details on the error message include:

  Check the file catalog.

  Invalid key length

  G volume could not be verified completely

  File system check exit code is 8

  ...

  File system check or repair a failure.

  Operation failed.

  Is there anything else I can do, or the drive is now a paper weight?

  It seems that the file system on the external drive is messed up.

  (1) you can try a more powerful file system recovery tool.

  Perhaps Disk Warrior has the best reputation for this:

  http://www.Alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/

  (2) you can reformat the drive with disk utility

  How old is the drive?  You can think to replace the hd in the case of the external drive.  It is usually a fairly simple process.  Remove the drive encloser to understand what type of connection of the disk is used.

• Drive external HARD USB will not access the files correctly on Satellite A100-033

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-033 (PSAANE-03J02GEN), running Windows Vista Home Basic Edition.
  I have a Western Digital passport external hard drive, which has no power source, because it pulls its power via the USB port.

  Sometimes the player works fine, but I often have huge problems to access files on the drive. Opening a folder can make Windows to hang.

  Open an audio file or a Word can do Word or audio software crash. Copy files often fails and in the process can make the Explorer Windows stop working.

  Recently I tried to copy a 33MB file from the external hard drive to my laptop, and while he did it took more than an hour. So many things can happen, none of them pleasant.

  Problems can occur if the external drive is the only device connected to a USB (apart from an external mouse, I always use), or if the external hard drive is one of a number of devices plugged into my laptop - either separately or through a USB hub (powered or unpowered).

  Anyone know what is happening and how I can make my USB external drive usable? I have two other external drives (powered by their own power source) and they work perfectly.

  Why, most of the time, do drive limp along so badly that they are virtually unusable?

  Hello

  One thing is clear; the problem is definitely related to the external HARD drive and not the laptop. It seems that this problem still occurs if the HD has been connected.

  It of really difficult to say what could be wrong with your external HARD drive
  Maybe HARD drive sectors are corrupt, and therefore you can not open folders and some files stored on the HARD drive.

  Have you tried to format the HARD drive? Check this box and try to save and re-open cases.

  In the worst case that the external HARD drive has a hardware malfunction
