• How to free up space hard drive under Vista?

  I write on behalf of a client.

  They are trying to free up space on their hard drive and are unable to do so.
  The reason is to install IE9 which requires SP2.
  Customer does not have a sufficient available disk space to install SP2.

  They tried the following links:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/260897
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/strategies-for-freeing-disk-space

  Any suggestions or measures to free up hard drive space would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Yes, you can. I would, however, first back up the data before you extend the partition.

  You must use the diskpart utility to extend the partition in the unallocated space. Basically, you need to delete and format the information contained in the other partitions.

  This link should help you understand the diskpart utility

  Hi, I am a newbie in all of this. I would use the 2nd internal hard drive of our mac mini server (end 2012) for storage (in fact, I'll things rsync from a remote server to here. but this is not the point here.). The thing is, I don't know how to access the 2nd internal hard drive and where to start. I did all of the following commands in the Terminal, but I don't really know what they mean, and what can I do with this information. I've been Googling but most are guides on how to install a 2nd hard drive etc. I hope that the information below is enough for someone to give me advice please?

• Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

  The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

  BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

  WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

  Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

• How do I defragment my hard drive?

  I have a Mid 2010 Mac OSX 10.8.5 installed Pro. I tried to do the upgrade to El Capitan but wanted to make a backup of the system before I upgraded. I want to do the backup on my external hard drive I use Time Machine to make backups on. I have a 500 GB Seagate Free Agent external hard drive. I've trashed a LOT of old files on this subject so I expect to see a lot of room open upward after that I did own upward. When I started, I saw that there were some 40 available 500 GB. After that I trashed (and emptied the Recycle Bin), there are a few available 85 GB. I remember the years there, I used to defragment some of my hard drives, but it is a long time over ten years ago. Would it not useful to do that to my free Agent drive to win more space? And if so, where can I find this information on the defragmentation?

• How to get a manufactured HARD drive date?

  How to decode a serial number of the HARD drive to get the correct manufacturing date?

  I found some information, see the attachment below, but the HARD drive in question is SATA and serial number decodes to Feb 1997 which may not be correct.
  SN in question is 27MJFxxxx. Instructions below, 7 = 1997 - which would be 2007?

  Thanks for any help.

  How to encode a Toshiba hard drive serial number?

  Toshiba serial number (S/N) includes the date of manufacture. The first digit of the serial number indicates the month of manufacture and the 2nd digit is the year.

  Example:
  M Y x x x x x x x
  M = month
  Y = year

  Data for the month goes from 1, for January, by 9 in September, then X, Y and Z, for October, November and December.

  Examples:
  2 8 1 7 0 0 0 1
  2 = February
  8 = 1998

  3 0 5 4 4 3 0 6 T
  3 = March
  0 = 2000

  X 9 7 8 3 3 1 T
  X = October
  9 = 1999

  The remaining digits contain information about the plant and the production line, and some numbers are reserved for a continuously running serial number.

  Hello

  I googled a bit and there are a lot of people that suggests how to read a serial number, I have no idea if he of right, but for example if you have a serial number: X7TO234534, then the product data would be October 2007 (X 7)
  X = 10 = October, Y = November, Z = Dec
  The first number is the month and the second digit is one year.

  So in your case, the serial number 27MJFxxxx should mean Feb 2007

  However, these are only some gossip on the internet and who knows if it of good or bad

• How do clone you a hard drive on a P6770T

  Background: I have a P6770T Office, number of product XX204AV #ABA, OS: Windows 7 Home 64 bit service pack 1.

  Partitions: C: 685 GB D: 12.7 GB (recovery), Q: 0GO (MS Office 2010 protected).

  Question: I would like to add a second hard drive to the PC as a clone.   First of all, a second internal hard drive can be added (is there a location for the drive and a SATA cable port)?    Second, how do clone you a hard drive with the three partitions, as described above?    I need instructions for cooking book style because I'm a newbee.      Thank you.

  It is usually best to make a clone with an external drive. It makes no sense given the power (spinning). Seagate and WD offer similar programs, called 'DiskWizard '.

  What you'll need:

  (1) software cloning (I'll link Seagate) download the utility and download from this page user's Guide.

  (2) buy a 1 t Seagate drive (like your hard drive is a nominal 750Go).

  more than you will need:

  (3) Sata Drive enclosure includes ESata rail.
