• How to make Toshiba USB 250 GB HARD drive read-only?

  Hello

  I just plug a Toshiba USB 250g external hard drive to replace all the sticks of memory, I've been using.

  I'll use this external hard drive to copy files to other computers and I would like to know how to make the drive read-only.

  Moreover, all the other tips to protect the disc would be extremely welcome.

  I use a Dell with Windows 7 laptop.

  Thank you very much

  Dougal

  I don't know what HARD drive you have exactly, but I know that Toshiba offers a software protection with external hard drives.
  Did you check manuals? Is something like that provided with your HARD drive?

  Maybe you need to use some third party software part for the protection of files on the HARD drive. Google all over the place.

• I have a Pavilion dv6. The test of hard drive reads: SMART Long DST passed, short DST passed, and failed.

  I have a HP Pavilion DV6 and it will DISPLAY, allow me to connect, and then reading welcome with the busy symbol, then the screen goes black.  My pointer always recognizes the touchpad and moves accordingly.  I've performed memory tests and received the following errors

  Failure ID: PU56W2-5KL62G-XD0141-61F103

  The hard drive LK469UA ID is used in the HP PAVILION DV6-3236NR NB PC US

  Assuming this DV6 is an American product, it's DV6-3236NR specifications

  There's an alert about the products of hardware for the DV6-3236NR, for the SATA (Serial ATA) hard drive controller here.

• Vista guard setting external hard drive read-only...

  SP1 Vista Ultimate x 64

  My external hard drive (WD Elements 500 GB) guard get the value read-only. I can go in, select all the files, right click > properties and uncheck the 'read only' box, click OK. When I open the drive once again, they are read only once more.

  I tried to go to the security settings for the player and adjusting so that everyone has the right to change the files and so on, to which I have an error message (on each file) saying that it cannot apply security information that the data are protected against writing.

  The drive is formatted in NTFS and says he's got the A attribute.

  What should I do?

  In most cases, only playback status is defined because there may be no "file locking" when editing and simultaneous removal. I suggest try enabled write caching and testing accessibility in writing files.

  Alternatively, you may have a problem of 'ownership' with the reader.

  To set, view, change, or remove permissions on files and folders

  1. Right-click the file or folder for which you want to set permissions, click Propertiesand then click the Security tab.
  2. Click Edit to open the permissions for dialog box.
  3. Do one of the following:

  ·         To set permissions for a group or user that does not appear in the group or user names box, click Add. Type the name of the group or user you want to set permissions for, and then click OK.

  ·         To change or remove permissions for a user or an existing group, click the name of the user or group.

  1. Do one of the following:

  ·         To grant or deny a permission, in the permissions for , select the allow or deny check box.

  ·         To remove the group or user in the group or user names box, click Remove.

• Hard drive read on Satellite A500-011

  I got a new Sateliite and the specification of HDD is 320.

  However, when I check the property of the HD, it reads capacity 265, used 11GB and GB available 254.

  I see not all partitions. I'm sure that the stuff OS and Toshiba are stored there, but miss me 55 GB of space.

  What happened to the rest? The HD capability shouldn't show 320?

  > I don't see not all partitions. I'm sure that the stuff OS and Toshiba are stored there, but miss me 55 GB of space.

  Perhaps, you have a hidden partition which you don't see in Windows Explorer. Go to control panel of configuration-system and security-administrative tools - create and Format partitions and check it if hidden partition exists.

• Used to read external hard drive

  Hi there, my external hard drive read fine on my old xp computer and it works on other opportunities that I tried to use it but for some reason any that it does not work on my computer.  It says ACCESS DENIED.  I tried everything I could think of.  I took possession of the car, I changed the letter in that it opens.  I don't know why, but I can't seem to make it work on my computer.  Help, please!

  Hi comichooly,

  It could be a permission problem; I suggest you follow the instructions that might help you resolve the issue.

  In Windows Vista, the built-in Administrator account is disabled by default. In previous versions of Windows, an administrator account was created automatically during Out-of-Box-Experience (OOBE) with a blank password.

  An account administrator with a blank password is a security risk. To better protect the system, the built-in Administrator account is disabled by default in all new installations and upgrades of Windows Vista.

  HOW to: Enable the build-in the administrator account in Windows Vista
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/555910

  Let us know if you are able to access your external hard drive in the built-in Administrator account.

  Please post back and let us know if it helped to solve your problem.

• after crash & burn, I reformatted hard drive software, then tried to reinstall xp family and get a prompt saying lost (NTDLR)

  If your hard drive is noisy and has 13 bad sectors, I suspect that there is a physical problem with the hard drive.

  Your message is difficult to read, so I'm having trouble following what you're saying.

  You say you have two hard drives. If the storage drive is noisy, this means that the drive with the OS right? What player has 13 bad sectors?

  There is absolutely no need to use fdisk or an installation CD of Windows 98SE to format a hard drive and install Windows XP. You have the corresponding Windows XP appropriate installation CD? In other words, it corresponds to the license you have? What is XP Home, Pro or MCE? Retail, OEM or OEM generic to brand? Full or upgrade?

• external hard drive, refusal of access permissions...

  I recently bought an external drive (G-Drive) to my back side ups.

  Now, I get an error message (occasionally) stating that I have no permission for its content and I can't eject the hard drive in my desktop computer.

  And when I go to copy the content to the hard drive, it just shows that he is about to be copied without transferring all content...

  I open the "Get Info" tab and there my user account to the content of the hard drive read/write.

  I should have access to the hard drive to do the above actions, but somehow it is not allowing me.

  I have another external hard drive and it ended all it activities.

  I am running Yosemite 10.10.5

  I'm offended on this one here... ~ has ~.

  Select the drive

  type

  CMD + i

  unlock and select "ignore permissions on this drive.

  

• Hi I'm looking to upgrade my iMac 2007 to a MacBook Pro that I can keep the iMac as an external hard drive is so how?

  WWhat should I do to keep all my photos and music files without having to complete my new mac book

  You can keep your iMac, but this isn't a very effective solution, if you just want to use it for storage. Sell and buy two external hard drives, one for extra storage and the other for a Time Machine backup drive that I speculate that you have not.

• Equium - HARD drive not recognized in Windows XP

  I replaced the HARD drive in the laptop, because the original had a catastrophic faulure. I replaced the HARD drive correctly (as far as I can see) but when I come to re - install Windows XP HARD drive may not be recognized.

  Any ideas?

  Hi potters.

  What model of laptop you have exactly?

  It would be important to know because if you have a model that uses SATA hard drives need drivers Intel Storage Manager you can install Windows XP.

  But in this case, you should check other forum threads. You will find hundreds of discussions on installing XP on SATA hard drive.

• I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices.

  I have a Macbook air running OS X El Capitan. I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices. I don't know if I need to restart the time Capsule or change the wireless setting, etc. ?

  Please advise...

  The TC appears in airport utility? If not then it is probably not part of your network or is lost... upgrade installed you El Capo because there a lot of questions.

  What is the TC plugged into the network by ethernet? And configured properly? Are you to internet via the TC... but can not see his drive... that would be typical?

  Have you set Finder preferences to display the network drives? Apple keeps making it difficult for some unknown reason.

  You actually have to mount the drive TC if it appears under shared... it still may not appear if you double click on it. Under the search box on the top of the right hand you see Connect (As) box, type the name or IP address of the TC in there... Make sure that you save the password from your keychain.

  I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive

  For the storage of the files it is fine.

  For the execution of direct files for an application in the Mac, you are very likely to damage or corrupt the file at some point.

  And how do you do backups? Time Machine can't help you... it won't work.

  Backup is crucial, especially if you do things apple say not to do... That is to say move your photos or the iphoto library to the TC and try to use direct from there... expect any day to need a resumption of the library.

  This disc has new SATA data and power cables.

  It is clear that there is a free connection of motherboard "SATA2" for data, I can see it. Sounds easy.

  What I can't understand is where and how the POWER cable is connected to... or what might be able to be used which already exists for power connectors in the office. There is a certain and they all have beautiful marking... "P3,"P8",...".
