• The Vixia HF G30 allows a direct copy of video files from an SD card on an external USB hard disk

  I am considering buying a G30 and need to know if she will allow a direct copy of video files from an SD card on an external USB hard drive.  The manual is not clear on this point.

  Not to my knowledge (I own a G30 HF).  There is no present on-the-go USB functionality.

  Personally, I do not miss such a feature, because it causes all kinds of compatibility problems, especially with regard to the power of external USB hard drives. In addition, without any file manager, backup of your video files into a nightmare. I must admit that I am rather Cannon after not on an often incomplete function development budget and have it spent instead on the main features of the camera, such as optics. Of course, this is just my very subjective opinion, and other HF G30 clients may have different opinions on this.

  In order to back up my video files on the fly and without having to carry a laptop, I recently bought a made by Hanso Hyperdrive colorspace UDMA2 and installed a 1 TB in her drive. When on the ground and after having taken my shots I just pop in my inside SD cards and the device of copies on the video files to 17Mbyte per second. At home, I plug in the UDMA2 in my Linux video workstation using a regular USB cable and pull the video from the mobile disk. The UDMA2 also did incremental backups and comes with a basic file manager. While it has a color screen, it can't play back video. It is a video and photo backup dedicated device, nothing more. But it does a decent job on exactly that.

• How to make a visible USB hard disk for a virtual machine on ESXI 4.1?

  Hi all

  As I am new to the world of vmware ESXI, I always make mistakes or I don't undertand all therefore be complete :-).

  So I have a HP Proliant ML 350 G6 Server installed with ESXI 4.1 and I want to connect a USB hard disk to a virtual machine (SBS 2K 8). Currently, the virtual machine is not able to see the hard drive.

  I already add a USB controller to the virtual machine, but my USB HARD drive is still not visible to my virtual machine.

  Can you help on that?

  Thank you

  Michael

  Next, add a USB device to the virtual computer (in the change settings tab), there are different things, USB controller and USB devices. Sometimes, you may have to restart the virtual machine.

• M30-841: recognition of the external USB HARD disk

  Hello!

  My laptop is a M30-841, with Windows XP Home Edition SP2 (automatic updates). Note that there is no exotic software installed.

  I have a problem with an external hard drive purchased recently.

  It is in a USB 2.0 enclosure, connected by a cable to a port USB of the Satellite.

  Start the log on to Windows, the drive is not enabled:

  Thank you very much!

• How do you know if the hard disk controller is damaged or it does not work?

  Hello

  I would like to know how you can know if the hard disk controller is defect.  is there some tools for it or a way to test it.

  I have thouthg my self for a solution like this;

  -If I take the hard drive that is not working out pc and attach it to the speaker and the speaker set on a PC then I wil first hear the rotation of your drive hard so that when the PC wil recognizes the external hard drive as a hard disk and then the controller is OK, otherwise it means that the controller is damaged.

  . I know mechanical problems with a hard disk, they do some sounds when they turn.

  is the way I think it is the right way to know or there is much better way to find out if there is a problem with the hard disk controller.

  Thank you

  Small circuit board is an interface for cables that sorts what is happening in the place where. It holds the drive buffer and it tells the computer what it is, i.e. drive, speed, brand, model, size etc.

  If you get an error of hard disk controller, it's a motherboard problem and there is no way to fix it.

  Hard drives fail for two reasons...

  1. The platters inside are deteriorating to the point where they are no more able to maintain the structure of the sector/cluster.
  2. The spindle motor breaks down.

  The part of a disk hard less likely to fail is the interface card, unless he is accidentally cut on the computer case or other metallic surface. If this short, you will know that the smoke resulting hard disk is acrid beggars belief. It is almost the only case where the interface will fail.

  Even when a hard drive is subjected to temperatures beyond its limits, the spindle motor bearings will fail way before anything else, that's why the vast majority of the disk hard total fails is obvious because there is no vibration of the engine.

  If a hard drive starts to cause problems, it is best to replace it because it will always get worse over time...

  External USB hard drives lose its connection and work stoppages.

  History

   
  Windows 7 Ultimate - 64-bit
  I installed it on a HP Pavilion, OS, 64-bit, and I have this problem.
  People report that it does not occur with Windows 7 32 bit OS.

  Problem:
  Any brand of external hard drive USB (and other USB devices sometimes) lose its connection and stops working only when copying large files internal drive to external USB drives.
  The USB device may appear to work properly when Windows first starts, but later stops working (crashes computer) after the start of large files to copy. You must restart Windows for the USB is working again.
  This only occurs when you copy files large files to THE USB port, not on the internal drive. It happened when I synicing my IPhone with Itunes when it started the synchronization of music files.

  According to the suggestions I have:
  1) updated the BIOS from the websites of the manufacturers.
  (2) power management disabled on the USB hub for disks
  (3) ensure that the BIOS for Legacy USB is set to.  I don't have this option in the BIOS settings.
  (4) this is not a motherboard problem, it is located on three different MB that we use.
  Also tried three different USB drives and different cables.

  Because I tested with two different computers updated and USB drives, our opinion is that this problem indicates that the Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

  Someone knows a solution?

  Hello

  As far as I know that booting from USB stick or HARD drive is not supported by the BIOS for this series of mobile.
  As far as I know you can boot from the HARD, ODD, LAN and USB FDD (floppy) disk, but I think that you can not boot from USB HDD.

  See you soon

• How can I start my external USB hard drive?

  My old Windows XP laptop doesn't work anymore... so I took out the hard drive and put it in a USB enclosure. I plugged a Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 and tried to start the old hard drive in the boot menu.
  That didn't work because it starts to boot up normally, like a XP computer but all of a sudden, a blue screen comes up and says to "check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to ensure that it is properly configured and completed. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer. "Something like that.

  Thank you

  The portable hard drive is expected to find all the material that was present in the laptop.  The material in your office is completely different.  The speed control is different.  You will not be able to boot from this portable player unless you put it in another laptop similar, at least the same type of hard disk controller.

  However, you can start on Vista, plug the portable hard drive and read data from there.  Once you shoot everything that you want on the portable hard drive, then you could erase it and re-install Windows XP on there if you wanted to, but it's a lot of pain in the neck, if you ask me.  I have just to load the virtual machine and create a virtual XP machine if I want to run XP.

  Good luck, Thomas Dietrich

• 320 external USB HARD drive won't boot

  Hello!
  After working fine for 5 months, my disk 320 external HARD USB is now showing that it is not initialized. When I go to disk management and click to initialize it, it won't boot. Can someone tell me how to make this work? I'm sure I'll have to format too, but can't find any way to make that without initializing the HARD drive first.
  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Try removing the USB ports in Device Manager. After restarting again the USB ports should be recognised again.
  Then again connecting the external HARD drive.

  The second possibility is to use an external USB hub with an additional power supply.
  It is possible that the HARD drive needs more energy than the 500mA

• HSF USB + hard disk Partition data damaged

  I have a USB to disk 2 used for all my data. I accidentally fell Lion Recovery Disk Wizard in this regard, instead of my USB, to make a bootable installation. Now, I can't mount the drive.

  

  

  Output:diskutil list

  /dev/disk4 (external, physical): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *2.0 TB disk4 

  I also have a disk faulty 1 TB, and ideally it should show as:

  I am missing 2 partitions, is there anyway I can fix it the structure of partition?

  I tried TestDisk, Assistant data and drill to drive, but nothing did.

  Try to repair the partitions with Disk Warrior. If your partitions are repaired successfully, then your drive is saved along with the data inside. The only problem is Disk Warrior allows a free demonstration test.

  I hope this helps!

• How to use the external USB camera on iPhone IOS 6?

  Hello

  I need to use an external USB Endoscope for the inspection of vehicles and etc. using IOS on iPhone 6.  I bought an external USB 2.0 adapter lightning, plugged in the endoscope (comments showed that this endoscope works on IOS devices) and it pops up and says that the device used too much power to be used on the device.  You are not sure if Apple cut the device to use at that time or not? But the device was always powered up as shown on the drive of the USB light on the endoscope.

  I downloaded several types of applications of the observer including I think that the right VLC who apparently used one of the reviewers and I couldn't figure out how to get an any of them to allow the selection of an external camera.

  Does anyone have an idea if it will work or how I can make it work?

  I would be very grateful for any input or assistance with this!
