• Which hard drive MacBook Pro 2012

  Hello

  I have Non - Retana MacBook Pro 2012, it has its default 500 GB hard drive, it is too small and too slow.

  I have found that I can put a 2 TB in current housing and a second in the SuperDrive slot should I want to.

  But my Question, above all, the it restrictions on the brand that I can use?

  If I wanted a SSD I know not all readers of work with her because of the TRIM settings, but I still don't know what to do if I went to SSD.

  Could I ask for some advice please on this please.

  I have £100 to spend so I was counting on a HARD drive not SSD for the more size.

  Any HDD SATA with a 2.5 form factor "will be compatible with your MBP.  Here are some examples:

  If you are considering an SSD, I recommend OWC and Crucial as the best sources.

  Ciao.

• Can't erase hard drive MacBook Pro - "could not disassemble the drive.

  I lost my original install discs Mountain Lion. Spin a MacBook Pro (2011 model).

  I found some articles that show you how to remove & reinstall everything without use of the physical disks. It is to restart my MacBook, pressing command-R, will using this toerase my hard drive and disk utilities

  However, when I try to wipe my drive, this error message appears: "erase disc failed with the error: failed to unmount disk.»

  I have attached a picture of the error that is displayed.

  On the left side of the utility window of disc (see attachment), there where hard disks are displayed, it shows the drive of 500 GB Toshiba MK. Directly below is the option "Macintosh HD."

  This error ONLY appears when I try to erase the disc from Toshiba. But this allowed me to erase the hard drive Macintosh option. Why is this? My drive was nonetheless erased? Or I still have to do something else?

  Thanks in advance for any help on this matter.

• Pass water damaged hard drive Macbook Pro (mid-2010) to another Macbook Pro (mid-2010)?

  Someone accidentally spilled water on my MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.66 GHz 15 "mid-2010 and after trying to dry out for a few days, I'm sure that the keyboard is in ruins, and it may be worse (I suspect the logic board like most people), but I need to (would really) keep my documents etc. However, we happen to have an another i7 2.66 GHz 15 "mid 2010 Macbook Pro lying around not being used. I'm a student in computer engineering and I'm pretty good with electronics and figure, that I can use the practice, so I was planning on trying to replace the keyboard myself, but I plan on getting a new MBP in the next few months, so I'd rather do less work if possible. MY MAIN QUESTION IS: since I'm very lucky and I have two little nearly exact same model MBP can put the hard drive of the damaged water MBP (also long the HDD no is not damaged by water) in the MBP running? And if so, what would be my challenges and if it works well enough to use for a month or two? Thank you!

  TLDR: I can take a HDD on a MBP and put it in a similar model without too much difficulty?

  Yes, but you're probably better to put in an envelope instead. If you start another Mac, or in an enclosure closed or internally, a very small number of parameters will not be postponed, and some commercial programs may refuse to run.

• Question of replacement for the hard drive MacBook Pro Late 2008

  Hello

  My MBP HD headed to the exit so I'll take the plunge and get a replacement SSD to install it.  Being not too tech savvie I'm trying to cover all the bases before starting the replacement so I think I'm OK to get to the old and a new one outside.

  I read that a clean install of Mac OS X is recommended.  The plan is to install the new SSD and connect the old HD the MBP for a speaker for the migration of files once the SSD has been formatted and installed operating system.  One of my questions is what OS can / should I install in the first place on the new SSD.  I have the Leopard installation disc that came with the MBP, I also have a Snow Leopard install disc I bought (this is the version 10.6.3).  Start with the Snow Leopard disc or do I have to install Leopard first?  I would get the new OS SSD up to version I'm currently on (10.7.5).

  My other question is around RAM.  As part of the upgrade, I plan to replace and max of RAM, I've seen is now 8 GB between the two slots.  I read what the maximum capacity to 8 as part of an update of the firmware.  So the question is: should I do all updates of OS before installing the RAM?  The MBP would difficult treat 8GB if the firmware update is not installed through the different software updates that will be needed once the OS is installed on the SSD?

  Advice/suggestions appreciated.

  See you soon

  Replace the RAM can be done at any time. If you have already downloaded the firmware required, it has already updated your material and will not be lost when you replace the hard drive. However, according to Apple, your computer can manage only a 4 GB. I could be missing something...

  See here: MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) - technical data sheet

  As far as your OS issue, the best thing to do is get the updated software to match the information that you are migrating back (to make sure no problem with migration). The best way to do it, is to download recovery disk wizard and install it on an extra USB key. This allows you to install Lion without having to install Leopard or Snow Leopard first. This will also use disk utility to format the new SSD correctly.

• Intend to upgrade HARD + SSD Macbook Pro drive end 2011

  Hope you guys can help me with this simple question (if any):

  I plan go my Macbook Pro 13 inch end of 2011 this system of 'double disc' using the current HARD drive and a new SSD. I use OS X El Capitan.
  My plan is to take all my important files on the current 500 GB external HARD Drive USB drive and delete EVERYTHING ELSE. There is no problem.

  Then I open the computer, remove the HARD drive and the optical drive. I'll replace it with my new MAIN hard drive SSD HARD drive and put the HARD drive in courses where the optical drive was (with an adapter to fit) to be a 'secondary drive' where I store my photos, movies, videos, etc.

  When everything is back in place, my question is: if I turn on my MBP with cmd + R pushed down, the normal OS X Utilities screen will appear and I would like to reinstall OS X for this new SSD?

  Why not let the operating system installed on the HARD disk, since that will give you a backup of boot problems disk? As long as you clear the Macintosh HD partition and not the HARD whole, the volume of recovery disk should remain intact and usable.

• During the stoppage of the partition, partition still on the hard drive Macbook

  Tonight I went to use Bootcamp to get 8.1 Windows on my MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, end of 2013), El Capitan 10.11.3 running. I had about 120 GB on my hard drive before you start. My Macbook has made to pay all the time.

  I have my serial number for 8.1 I was going to install 8.1 then update to 10. I had the. ISO on my desk and I've been using a 16 GB flash drive. Everything was going well (it does not seem to take a bit to download the necessary files for the flash player) and when I got to the next step to partition my hard drive I chose 50 GB for Windows. He began partitioning and I had to got for a second and of course when I got home it was on the screen to type my password. I thought for a second, he finished, but then he said that he had to stop unexpectedly.

  I went to open bootcamp and it just took me the steps from beginning. Now my problem is that I have 50 GB of the partition and I don't know how to get it back. I rebooted my Macbook, CMD + R, go to disk utility and ran first aid on the hard drive. He was executed successfully, but my hard drive is still missing as 50 GB. I restarted and went to the utility disk on my office and made the same thing. This time around the first aid took a little longer to work so I thought I had it, but these 50 GB are still missing.

  Anyone know how I can return these 50 GB? I prefer not to format my hard drive and start over. I just want back the 50 GB. Also, if anyone has the answer as to why he closed Middle partition would be great as well so I can make sure I do it correctly this time.

  Thank you.

• change hard drive (old was broken) I have no more CD recorvery

  My acer laptop 1350, hard drive ash bin change (age had broken bin) i 'don' t have cd recorvery more, how can I recorvery laptop

  How can I do

  Thank you

  Hello

  The only way to get it back as a PC to work directly from the facility, is to get Acer recovery media.

  If you can find/borrow XP CD of the same version (XP/Pro), you can get the operating system implemented using the button on the bottom of the laptop. Then, you have to go to the Acer Web site and download all the drivers and the software you need and install after having established Windows. This could be a situation ' chicken and egg ', without ethernet or wireless drivers that you will not be able to get on the internet. Windows might have native drivers, but if not, the only way to beat this would be for download on another PC that has an internet connection and then transfer by memory stick or other portable media. If you choose this route, you may want to you come back to this forum and research to get the XP installation instructions, this is particularly important if the CD is pre - SP3.

  Please mark this as useful or response if applicable.

• Hard drive MacBook Air full when using only iclouddrive

  Can anyone help please.  I'm sure that its very simple.  I have a Macbook Air and create books for children.  I saved all the files on my iclouddrive account, thinking that I don't use space on my hard drive!  However, my hard drive is now complete.  I thought by storing all my files on the cloud, the hard drive of my computer would be pretty empty, after all this is why I bought a Macbook Air!  I asked for support to an apple store and they said that some Macbook Air have a bug that duplicates files and I need to check the files are uploaded on my drive to iCloud and then re - install the OS on my MBAir to get rid of the bug

  3 questions: it will work.  Y at - it a simpler way and he will wipe away the files on iCloud drive at the same time or they will be safe until I have access again to my newly cleaned MBAir?

  help most appreciated.

  Badger

  If you have the Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud drive turned on, then all files that you have stored in iCloud drive to https://www.icloud.com/ will have a local copy on your Mac. It's not a bug, this is how it is designed to work. iCloud Drive is mainly designed for the synchronization of data between devices and is not intended as a storage cloud solution only.

• Replacement of hard drives NAS Pro StorCenter ix4-200r 2.1.48.30125

  Hi all

  I need your help with replacement of disks problem

  I have an Iomega StorCenter Pro NAS ix4-200r (Firmware 2.1.48.30125) installed originally with 4 x 1 TB of hard drives.
  I had to replace a faulty drive, and on this occasion, I replaced 4 disks, one at a time at WD 2 TB SATA - WD20EFRX.

  My questions are the system will start after reboot?

  How can I make the system to use all available capacity (almost 6 to)?

  When I look at the folders I can still see the original capacity (about 2.7 TB)
  However when I look at disk management I see 1.8 to 4 disks each.

  Thank you

  Michael

  Hello micshe,

  After an upgrade of capacity, you must perform a reset of factory from the user interface in order to force a rebuild and prepare the SIN to use the extra space.

• Change hard drives - links are broken?

  I want to spend my OS and applications on an SSD in my MacPro. I also intend to use a disk storage more keep all my project files. My question is, if I move all my projects to a new disk, with a new name, all my links in InDesign will be broken? I know that I can use the same name on the new hard drive, but I already did once, if the drive is called "G5 Storage"... it's time to retire that many...

  See you soon.

  If you change the name, the links will break. If they are in the same as the .indd files directories, they should get found automatically in the folder open, yet if your preferences are set this way.

• Hard drive Satellite Pro C650 problem

  Hi, a friend of mine's laptop in me to take a look because he wasn't starting. He was going straight to boot from the network map, so a little thought that it's a dead hard drive. Then, I checked the BIOS and as expected not detected HARD drive. Removed hard drive and reinstall, same problem. Then I tried another working SATA drive I've saved, not detected in the BIOS. I then tried the hard drive of my HP Elitebook 6930p for laptop, yet undetected work.

  Someone at - he fell on this issue before, it looks like a question of Council?

  Thank you

  Vincent

  Hi Vincent

  When you set the BIOS to default settings is the problem persists? Another SATA drive recognized, or not?

  It is not easy to say what the problem is, but maybe is the faulty disk controller.
