• Y580 installing new hard drive

  Salvation of the Lenovo forums

  I use the Ideapad Y580.

  My hard drive is currently a failure (error messages Windows and failing Seagate diagnostic test tools) and I would like to replace the hard drive.

  Can I put a blank disc (SSD or HD) and onekey recovery (next to the switch) button to restore factory default?

  Or is it necessary for me to burn a recovery with the lenovo Solution Center disk in order to install windows on the hard drive/SSD?

  I hesitate to burn them or work with my current computer because the hard drive is already defective, so I'm worried all corrupted files flowing into the new drive.

  I hope to hear from you guys soon.

  Thank you

  Hi Onizukaeikichi,

  Thanks for the reply, I apologize for the delay in replying.

  According to your request, there is no difference between the fresh OS and a factory restore in the factory default drivers will be preinstalled where in the new OS, you need install drivers only your data will be added to this, please take backup of data.

  I hope this helps! Publish us back for other queries.

• Portege M300: Is the protection of HARD drive only for the brand of Toshiba drives?

  Hello

  I am trying to upgrade my Portege M300 with a hard drive bigger, as seen on the Portege forum, I posted the thread after that two hard drives from samsung does not similarly, shortly after the installation of the new.

  I just want to know if the protection of Toshiba HARD drive utility is simply made for Toshiba hdd or if it can work on any other brands of hard drives of brand. As I say, I want to upgrade a 60 GB to 160 GB and 2 new hard drive failed. I've since updated my bios to the latest version and I also consider not to install this hard drive protection feature, just in case where it will cause problems once more with my 3rd HDD replacement of same nature.

  I appreciate any thoughts on this.
  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Usually it s any manufacturer is.
  If the HARD disk supports the CHIP so it should be possible to use this HARD drive.
  The HARD disk protection tool verifies the parameters of the HARD disk.
  But the settings are configured by HDD manufacture then it might be possible that the HARD disk will not work if the tool would not choose the settings correctly.

  Hello

  How did you check the size of HARD drive?
  Well, as far as I know the Qosmio Player is pre-installed on the hidden partition.
  It is perhaps a reason for different size of HARD drive.

• HARD drive only works with 5 UDMA on Satellite A100-906

  Why the disk hard s - ata on A100-906 works with the MODE ULTRA DMA 5 and not 6 or higher it should be with the controller s - ata.

  Hello

  How did you check that?

  Just for info:
  The UDMA 5 Mode = UDMA100 and UDMA133 the UDMA Mode 6
  Perhaps the DMA controller supports the UDMA133 but the HARD drive doesn't.
  Sometimes the UDMA133 is not automatically enabled on hard drives.

  For example:
  I read that the UDMA Mode 5 is activated automatically on the Samsung drives and if someone wants to use mode UDMA 6 then must be activated manually.
  In this case, the application of the 3rd part is necessary as Hutil.

• Unable to create/delete/change on all external hard drives only shortcuts

  My problem is one I haven't seen and can't find an answer through research.

  Observations of the problem:

  • I tried to copy files to my external hard drive for backup.  All files copy very well, with the exception of shortcuts (.lnk) files.  They give the error "Destination folder access denied" that says: "You must be authorized to perform this action."
  • The error above then we observe when I tried to create a shortcut on the external hard drive.
  • When I tried to delete a shortcut I get the error "File Access Denied", "you must be authorized to perform this action. You need permission from the administrator of the computer to make changes to this file. »
  • When I found the Security tab, under properties of a shortcut, I get the message "You are not allowed to view or change the permissions of the object settings."
  • When I click on the button Advanced on this window, the owner tab says "Unable to display current owner." When I try to take ownership, it tells me to close and reopen the properties of the object until I can view or change permissions.  When I do this, it always says "Unable to display the owner current." and nothing has materially changed since before my attempt to take ownership of.
  • I tried several other external hard drives, and all of the above problems are the same.
  • All other files besides the .lnk file are perfectly accessible, modifiable and suppressible.  All .lnk files are the only files that have this problem.

  I already tried without success the following:

  • Appropriate shortcuts.
  • Taking possession of the entire hard drive.
  • Ensure that I am a member of the Administrators group and connected as well.
  • Reset .lnk files default file associations.
  • Affecting the control settings to "Always notify me" "never notify" user account and vice versa.
  • To ensure that my connection is defined as administrator.

  All solutions?

  The problem persists there then in Safe Mode? If it works then please this simple test. He starts from the principle that your external drive uses the E: drive letter.

  1. Open a command prompt (cmd.exe).
  2. Type these commands exactly and press ENTER after each:
     dir > E:\Test.txt
     dir > E:\Test.lnk
     copy '% UserProfile%\Desktop\*.lnk' E:\
  3. Make a report.

• 3TO hard drive only show 746 GB Dimension 9200

  I have a Dell Dimension 9200, operating under Windows 7 64-bit. I just installed a Toshiba 3 to drive, but Windows sees only 746GB. I can't find the Intel drivers for the chipset to be updated.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you.

  Hi RattyCathy,

  If your chipset does not support the Intel RST, then the solution is to use a SATA controller card. But I would like to visit the Intel site and check that first.

• How much better the partition of the HARD drive for dual boot: Windows 8 and Linux

  Hello

  I am a newbie in Windows 8, linux, Partition...

  I want to use my new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed on the following:

  Create a Dual Boot Windows 8 / Ubuntu
  Create on my drive C (single disk on my laptop):

  * a partition for the system
  * one for Windows 8
  * one for data and
  least for Ubuntu OS

  My goal is:

  -to install VmWare on Windows 8 and run Splat Checkpoint with virtual machines to make the FCTC laboratories.

  to install GNS3 on Ubuntu for CCNP Labs but with GNS3 to access the files in the data partition

  I have a Toshiba Satellite with 750 GB and 8 GB of RAM.

  According to you, what is the best size for my scores?
  Is there a better way to partition my C drive on my goal?

  Best regards

  I don't know if this is the right section, sorry for that. Feel free to move this thread in the appropriate section *.

  I think the size of partitions depends of the you want to use and install other software.
  So if you have a lot of software which runs under the Windows System I recommend to choose a larger size to win 8 partition.

  However, given that you have a 750 GB HARD drive, you could take 200GB for Win 8, 100 GB to Linux and the rest of the HARD drive size, that you can use for data.

  By the way: I found Nice YouTube video how to create a dual boot using 8 Win and Linux http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_Yd2jK-7Jg

• Broken hard drive repair/replacement

  My 2 year old g580 Lenovo specifications had a hard drive failure where the use of the disc works 100% or at a constant pressure, even if it is inactive. I thought it was a problem too so I bought a Lenovo approved hard drive. Then I read that the OS is attached hard disk.

  I was wondering what course of action, I must take, I read that it is possible to migrate the operating system with some 3rd party software, although it seems a little fishy and I would rather see my alternatives. Is there a way to have a windows replacement drive sent me, or another way to get windows on my laptop?

  Then the product key shoul is a chip on the motherboard.

  If after installation of Windows 8, it should detect the key of the product itself.

  You need only install the new hard drive in your system and install windows 8.

  Yes you can. Here's the part you have to do with. Just remove the optical drive, add a hard disk in one of these adapters and replace it for the optical drive:

  https://www.jacobsparts.com/items/HDDBAY-02/

  You may also need to swap the façade of the old optical disc to make the installation of good look.

  I wouldn't use this for one SSD. An SSD belonged to the main disk space to enjoy the speed. The drive into the optical drive adapter will not be bootable and it will be not given quite as fast as the main hard drive transfer speeds. So if you have a drive in this card, a big (1 TB) and slow (5400 RPM) drive would be preferable. It will be purely for storage and it is still fast enough to see the video of for example but if you are doing video editing I would try not to edit videos from the optical drive Bay. Move them to the fastest reader first.
