Hitachi Touro Desk pro HARD drive does not recognize on the computer of Windows 8.

Original title: Windows 8 - Hitachi Touro Pro support

I have a Hitachi Touro Desk pro HARD drive that no longer works since I've upgraded to windows 8 last week. If I leave it connected during startup, windows will not start and if I connect it once started, it does not appear in the Solution Explorer, even if you can hear the disc turns away.

The HARD drive works on all other computers and operating system, not just windows 8.

When Microsoft will release a patch for this problem? I really don't want to have to re - install windows 7 so that I can access my files again.

I have installed Windows 10 Technical Preview version 10049 and connected my drive from 750 GB Hitachi touro in USB 3.0 and it WORKS!

I can't believe that after several years of frustration with this device with Windows 8.1 incompatibility it finally works great in Windows 10! Please check if you also have Windows 10 TP if your Hitachi drive works as well

  • New hard drive does not appear in the disk utility

    I am installing a new hard drive in my late 2011 13 "MacBook Pro. I started using apple's online retrieval system and went to disk utility. I tried to format the drive, but he is stuck saying "remove disc" for about a half hour, and then I had a rotation beach ball and could not move the cursor. I restarted the computer and now the drive does not appear in the disk utility. Any help is appreciated as I have no idea where to go from here.

    Thank you.

    You will may be turned off and check that your hard drive is correctly positioned with all the screws tight.

    Please help and Windows 7 or windows 8.1 PC do the same thing.

    Hello

    I found the description of the product of this external HARD disk:

    Product features:
    • USB 3.0 - powered portable add-on storage.
    • Voltage of bus capable USB, no need for AC adapter.
    • Easy to use with no software to install.
    • Adapts to large digital files with spacious storage capacity.
    • Protect your drive (internal shock sensor and ramp loading technology).

    Specifications
    • Capacity: 1.0 TB
    • Interface: USB 3.0
    • Transfer rate: up to 5 Gb/s
    • Speed: 5 400 rpm
    • Average access time: 12ms
    • Cache buffer: 8 MB

    It is a HARD USB 3.0 drive. No doubt the HARD drive is not recognized correctly in windows exploerer due to the low power.
    The USB 2.0 port common feeds only 500mA. The USB 3.0 device must be able to 900mA.
    Therefore, it would be advisable to connect this 2 ports USB 2.0 HARD drive with a USB Y cable

  • Why my data Ext Hard Drive WORD & EXCEL from my old computer does not recognize my new computer with Windows 7.

    Recently, I replaced an old computer running Windows XP with a newer computer of Windows7.

    I have TWO Toshiba external hard drives 2... one of them (Mdl HDDR250E03X) is used for external backup of data on my computer.  I started using it for my old computer that was running on Windows XP.  Due to a Trojan infection, I had to buy a new computer running Windows 7.  I thought that the hard drive is simply a plug-and-play device, BUT my new computer has not recognized that there is a device plugged until someone suggested that I make a change in the Device Management section (which only works at Midway).  My new computer now sees that the drive is there, BUT the data displayed under a name of file/folder (dec22a69bbd43e6966c9935e4720f7).  Data include WORD files, EXCEL files and .jpg files.  When I click on this long file/folder name, I get a long list of records as well as other unknown files that I don't recognize.  Inside each of the files is the SAME set of files (EULA, LocalizedData and SetupResources.dll.  When I try to save a WORD or EXCEL file on this disk, I tells me that the drive is empty, then the path and destination does not allow me to record anything.  I suspect that the problem lies in the Windows 7 software to recognize the hard drive but, I'm totally new to this Windows 7.  Everyone recognizes what is the problem?   I KNOW that the data is always there because I ran my virus on this single drive software and I could see many file names as they were read.

    Hello DuaneMeyer,

    What are you help save external hard disk?
    It is built in the backup part OS backup software or a 3rd?

  • Corsair Flash Voyager GT 32 GB USB 3.0 thumb drive does not work after the upgrade to Windows 8 Pro

    Since the upgrade of my Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x 64 Windows 8 Pro x 64, my Corsair travel GT 32 GB USB 3.0 Flash USB key no longer works when plug it into my USB 3.0 port on my laptop. I get an error that the "peripheral last USB connected to the computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." I looked for someone with a similar problem and came across this answer:

    I tried the solution (method 1) on this page, however, Windows reports that it was unable to solve the problem of equipment.

    Is there anything else I can try to solve this problem? The USB key works in the USB ports 2.0, and it worked in the USB 3.0 port when you run Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x 64.

    Kind regards

    Hey, I contacted Corsair about this, and they say that it's a driver problem in Windows 8 and I need contact my laptop computer manufacturer for the latest drivers for it, but even if my manufactuer are full steam advertising upgrades of Windows 8, they say they do not support it fully yet...

    You do not add a printer driver for printers and Scanners.  You add the printer itself.

    The Epson Artisan 50 is not a printer capable of AirPrint, as shown here:

  • Hard drive does not start after the use of the recovery on USB Manager

    The hard drive on HP G62t - 350 CTO Notebook to my newphew failed. I could create a USB recovery in the Recovery Manager. I installed a new 120 GB SSD. The original hard drive was bigger, do not remember now but 250 or 500 GB. I know that the recover the system after the hard is replaced (Windows 7) said "to avoid problems, install a hard drive as big or bigger than the replaced hard disk", but that's a question for later.

    Computer started fine of USB (in fact, is set to boot from USB if present by default). Recovery Manager starts. I choose minimum installation. He goes through the process of partitioning the SSD and copying files. Said so to remove the external media and restart, the computer will restart several times during the process, blah, blah, blah. I get out of USB and restarted, but after POST I get "no bootable media present.

    If I try to reboot, leaving the USB in, it starts in USB and that we are at the beginning. I am able to confirm with a rescue disk, the SSD has an NTFS partition that had Windows files copied to it and a large amount of unallocated space. (Something like 60% / 40%).

    So:

    1. How make bootable hard drive for, and if it was bootable, recovery processes complete?
    2. What is happening with the partitions? He creates the partition recovery first, and then after the start, the recovery partition installs the operating system? If so, I might have to give up this process because since I'm moving to smaller storage, I don't want to devote half of the drive to a recovery partition.
    3. Official recovery media help? A technician told me that he would do so, but couldn't explain to my satisfaction why the USB I created with Recovery Manager does not work, so I'm suspicious of the assertion that the media created by HP as opposed to media created by me using the own HP software would be better, and since the computer is under warranty I don't want to spend $30 + to find out.

    Most of the people who have installed an SSD that was smaller than the reader of the factory were unable to use any medium recovery HP with the SSD.

    Hey,.

    I checked the Web from Toshiba site and it seems that you need RAID driver for install Windows properly. The driver is required to get recognized hard drives

    It seems that this driver is available for XP and 2000 only because the laptop is old enough, I think that Yes it doesn't support Vista or Windows 7 I think. You can only try the XP driver. If it doesn t work you must use the operating system preinstalled Toshiba were all working properly! :)
