How to install the new hard drive on PowerMac G5
How it installs a new hard drive on PowerMac G5?
I have a number of readers of the previous Mac that can fit in this PowerMac G5, but I don't know what - if anything - is necessary to make them fit. Or guides, assistance would be appreciated. Thank you!
You need a 3.5-inch SATA drive. Concerning how to swap the drives you can use these instructions to fixit. You can skip step 4 that this plastic cover does not need to be removed. https://www.iFixit.com/Guide/Power+Mac+G5+hard+drive+replacement/1952

Abrams,
That's all I can help you. These instructions are based on the Perc 5 / i controller, which I think you have on our system. You have not specified the server so I just assumed that this is so.
1. unscrew the hot spare that you just made. Follow this link from Dell.
http://support.Dell.com/support/eDOCS/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp10613432 follow the link for the installation of virtual disks - http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp1069357
This link has three steps to void, skip the step on "spare parts of designate hot."
a. create the virtual disks and select virtual disk options. -Online steps to create another disk group and add the new disk to the disk group.
(b) designate the drives hot spares (optional). =>, YOU CAN SKIP THIS STEP
c. initialize virtual disks. -online must do. just do not initialize the incorrect disk.After the step #2 c, you should be able to access the drive in ESXi or command-line (list of nmp esxcli devices).
And no, you cannot add this manaully until do you step #2 above which is to define the disk group, creating virtual disks and initialize the virtual disk.
Good luck.

cannot add the new hard drive more than 2 TB on vsphere upgrade 5
can someone give me a clue? I can't add new greater than 2 TB drive to my vm on my upgraded vsphere 5.0. My data store is 6 TB and already read by vsphere... I create new virtual machine and add the new drive, but it limits again just 2 TB when I change 4 TB, the error message will appear. I recently added my datastore LUN with VMFS5 version. is there a any mistake I made? Please help me this problem is so frustrating me... i need to create new disk 6 TB to my new file server
Hello.
You will need to use a RDM in physical Compatibility Mode to achieve. As weinstein5 said, a VMDK cannot be greater than 2-to-512bytes. You can use the OS to spread over several 2 TB-512bytes VMDK, if that's what you really want.
Good luck!

How to install the new hard drive and windows key?
Hello
I have a aspire v5-121-c72g32nkk.
I have just updated to Windows 10, don't panic, but I want to upgrade my HD drive to a SSD drive.You can find the steps to do this?
Windows was preinstalled, how I reinstall on another drive?
I have no serial key or whatever it is.
I'm a bit lost, you have an idea?Best,
There are several ways to do this, anyone have product keys, since
If you want to do a clean install:
Windows 7-8 - 8.1 keys are embeeded on your BIOS
Windows 10 use a generic key during the upgrade, so just skip the steps questions about a product key and the first time you connect on the web, it will authenticate to.
You must decide:
(1) do a clean install of your operating system to factory
(2) make a disk - image of the system image and reload
(3) to do a clean install of windows 10
option 2 is the fastest at the end, as you create a copy of your HARD drive and reload it to your PC.
you need a bootable windows 10 (USB or DVD) media and little space on external HARD drive.

How to copy the recovery on the new HARD drive partition, HARD drive failed?
Hallo,
I have a Compaq Mini netbook with Windows 7 Starter.
The HARD drive has failed and it is not repairable. However, it seems that the recovery partition is OK.
I want to buy a new HARD drive, install the driver on the netbook, and then use the tools/recovery partition to install windows 7 on a new PC.
So, the question is simple: how to copy the recovery for the new HARD drive partition?
Hello s91066.
If your hard drive of your laptop doesn't have? If this is the case, what do you mean by the "recovery partition is ok? I doubt that this laptop has two hard disks, so if you are able to see this partition of your hard drive may still work.
You will need a set of recovery disks to restore the partitions on the new drive. If you can start Windows, which you can probably not with a dead hard drive, you can follow these steps if you can get into Windows.
If you are unable to boot into Windows, you need a set of disks. You can order it directly from HP. The number of the United States / Canada is 1-800-474-6836. If you are in another domain, you must visit HP's Support around the world to find contact information for your region.
I hope that is useful; have a great weekend!

How to reinstall it on the new hard drive
Inspiron One my 2330 client hard disk is dead. Obviously, it will not be a recovery partition on the new HARD drive that I installed. Because the Microsoft Windows 8 activation key is embedded in the BIOS, how will I be able to activate the operating system if I install a DVD if there is no recovery logic to tell the installation routine where the key?
Thank you!
The product key is embedded in the UEFI BIOS. It will be automatically entered 10 TH2 Windows installation media. If you are prompted for a product key however then you have used the wrong edition of the the Windows 10 TH2 so must use Windows 10 TH2 only language:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-Windows-10-OEM-and-retail-ISO/
Note Microsoft indicated the end date for the free update is in ~ 3 days, you will need to clean install Windows 10 TH2 and activating online before this date.

* Original title: windows 7 download
I have a laptop dell M4400 with windows 7 pro OA. HARD drive crashed and I replaced with a new one. How to put Windows 7 on the new hard drive without boot cd? How will I know if 32 or 64 bits? This computer yourself running windows 10?
It has probably comes with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
You can download a copy of Windows 7 Professional using the following instructions (update of Microsoft recovery software supports downloads with the COA key):
How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?
Make sure you scroll down and read the section:
What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?
You can also use Windows 10 too as you have the right to it as a free upgrade:
- Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
- Reboot several times, and then try again.
- Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
- If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
- Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
- If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
- If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
- If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
- If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
- If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

Just reinstall from the disc (or download it from https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html) and activate it with your serial number.
