I need the driver for my external HARD disk drive

Hi how are you?

Well, I would like to know I do an external drive using the portable hard drive whose name is "Toshiba MK8034GSX" which is with a capacity of 80 GB.
A few days back I plugged to the USB port with my pc but after that it says need driver and I n t have the HARD disk driver.

So kindly if anyone has the driver or know the link where I can find the driver then tell me I will be very grateful to you all.

With regard to:

Martine André

Hello

What is a USB HDD?
You n t need any driver, and there is no drivers for an external USB HDD.

The USB driver is part of the Windows OS and it s already installed.
The USB HDD must be fitted with a plug & play device which means that should be recognized automatically after you connect to the laptop USB port.

What OS you have and what laptop is it?
The operating system is up to date?
USB ports are correctly listed in the Device Manager?

  • How can I change the permissions for an external hard drive?

    Hi, I have a little problem... I used an external hard drive on my pc windows 10 and now I try to copy my files on my iMac, but the thing is I can't delete my files from my hard drive because I can only read them. So I want to change the permissions, but I do not know how... Can someone help me with this please?

    Thank you for your time.

    This means generally that the volume is formatted to NTFS, at which case it must be reformatted or software such as Paragon NTFS installed on the Mac.

    In case this happens to a FAT32, exFAT or volume Mac OS extended, either the volume's directory structure is damaged, it is locked in the material or the player has felt that it is about to fail.

  • How to assign letters to the editor for USB external hard drives permanently

    I have an external USB hard drive where I store all my media files.  When I have Windows Media Player search this drive to index all my files, it indexes them in a specific directory.  I also use Media Player to sync my MP3 player using the playlist option in Media Player.  If I plug another external USB storage device until I plug the hard drive, it must be the drive letter, & if I try to sync my MP3 player, all of the flie links are broken.  Is it possible to set up a reserve of drive letter for my hard drive so that it will always be available on this hard drive when I plug?

  • w540 replace the cd for a second hard disk drive?

    Hello

    I ordered the thinkpad w540 last week. With a dirve normal hard drive and a CD compartment. I figured out after the arrivied to the computer I got a solidsate inside my xps 15 hp.

    In the best of cases, I would replace the CD drive, as says the config in the web page in timeline option could be done. How could I know if it is possible to replace the CD player with another hard drive?

    Otherwise I would try to replace the original disk for the solid state hard drive, but in this case I loose windows system 8. Is is possible to install again in the new hard drive with the same license?

    I was wondering just because it would be nice to keep the drive inside your computer instead of having to plug it in all the time, due to the faster speed, it would be good to use is as the primary dirver.

    Thanks in advance,

    -Jorge

    Hi, Jorge

    you will need an adapter "caddy" to house the second HDD/SDD. Ch right here in the forum, see http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?location=forum-board%3AW_ThinkPads&q=caddy... .

    For my W540, I use the caddy of http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=555 and have a very good experience over the years (W510, W520, W540...).

    Regarding replace drive HARD original with SSD, there are basically two possibilities - either you use the recovery option (create your own media - see google or trying to get a Lenovo - not sure it will work) or use a transfer software. I have used for years Acronis products, especially because it acknowledges the SSD and aligns everything as it should on SSD (won't go now too deeply in the alignment of industry and to this day).

    And if you want to run your W540 on steroids, alias max possilbe storage capacity, see my signature...

  • Cannot delete the backup files to external HARD disk

    I tried to remove most of the backup sets on an external HARD drive, but always free poster of 465 GB file Explorer only 213 GB.  I chose the drive in "Disk Clean-up, but which showed no files to delete.  I had a virus on the disk scan to see what files have been on this subject, and so there are hundreds of thousands of them, starting by ' $RECYCLE. BIN... ".  Anyone know how to remove these?  Operating system is Windows Vista SP2.

    Hi John

    Some of the files that you see (as the trash) are system files and do not need to be deleted.

    Before taking other measures, what volume of personal files is on the external hard drive? Did you direct copies of music/photos etc.? -"Free 465 GB only 213 GB" is not quantify how many do you think should be free!

    Also - what the drive and were records of backup performed using embedded software of the player?

    The best solution here is perhaps simply reformat the drive (after making sure that you have an exact replica of all personal files on your pc that you can then copy to it) but give us a little more detail the first.

    Thank you - R

  • Speed up the preview of loading external HARD disk?

    I have my catalog and my pictures stored on an external hard drive. I'm reviewing right now a few more old photos, and I find that it takes quite a long time to load the previews.

    For example - I click on a folder that has about 300 images inside. If I go to view grid to the preview screen, it loads the thumbnails for the images that appear on the preview screen, but nothing after that. I scrolled down, and it is the responsibility of these previews. Scroll again, more load.

    Moreover, the same thing happens with the film down. I tried to scroll to the end, but it seems to load only the previews that are currently visible in the preview screen or film.

    Is it possible (short 'intelligent Preview', and I don't know even if that would do the trick) to just say "load all previews at the same time". The initial charge would take more time, but it saves me the trouble of having to wait while scrolling.

    Try putting the catalog file and previews on your internal drive, see if that helps.

    Try render 1:1 previews and keep them indefinitely.

    Forget the intelligent insights, which are unrelated to this problem.

  • Disk utility was unable to repair the Time Machine USB2 external HARD disk partition?

    Hello.

    My client has problem with its USB2 500 GB Seagate FreeAgent Go since early 2010. There 2 partitions: FAT32 and HFS (for most Time Machine backups). After connection and enter its password valid successfully, it takes a minute to set up, and then a message that says "OS X cannot repair the «...» "You can still open or copy the files on the disk, but you cannot save changes to the files on the disc. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can. "I ran disk with their verification utility. Both are problems with "invalid sibling link" and said the repair option. However, this repair option is grayed out.  So, is it not possible to fix it with free software on the disk except for the reformat?

    I used two different 15 "MacBook Pro (Mac OS X v10.8.5/Mt. mid-2012 lion and v10.10.5/Yosemite of the early 2013) with the same results, is not the MacBook Pros. http://imgur.com/a/OW0s6 for a couple screen
    s (shooting/capture) of Mac OS X v10.10.5/Yosemite. I also tried disk on its FAT32 partition checks, and found minor problems. They were repairable too unlike the encrypted HFS partition.

    Thank you in advance.

    Disk utility can't repair an error of invalid sibling link. You use Disk Warrior that assuming that the disk is always good. Otherwise, you will need to save what you can then reformat the hard drive. Exactly what the error message said.

    Somehow my laptop lost the drivers for my external hard drive unit.
    I watched section diving of the Toshiba site but unless you know exactly the software to download and then how to install and get my camera working again...

    I downloaded a program called "regen" but not sure what to do with it... I'd be happy to buy another copy original cd drivers but can't find anything on the net.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    In description of Regen is written that this software is required to use your external DRIVE as a backup device drive.
    Did you also download application CD Update 1.04?

  • How can I change the permission of my external hard drive from tours and write "without formatting?

    My Toshiba external hard disk format was automatically replaced Windows NTFS after I had plugged on a Windows PC. Therefore, the permissions of the drive changed to 'read only' to "read and write" after that I used on my Mac. It happened once before and I remember the engineer on duty in an apple authorized service center had solved the problem without format the external hard drive. This is not an option for me now as well, but all the solutions, I looked to say online that the formatting of the disc is the first step. Help, please!

    Install software such as Paragon NTFS on the Mac.

    original title: installation of Windows 7

    Hey Joe,

    I suggest that you visit the gigabyte website for your region (and/or the site global http://www.gigabyte.com/?f=g ) and check your motherboard for compatibility with Windows 7.

    The problem you are experiencing would imply that Windows 7 has no native driver support for your disk controller, so if Gigabyte don't have drivers that you are locked unless you buy a discreet disk controller that is compatible Windows 7.

    Please mark this as useful or response if applicable.

    On the other hand, you have this posted in a forum of Windows XP when it is really a problem of Windows 7.

    Hi dynamitenews

     

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
    2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

     

    You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

    Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.

    BIOS WARNING-
    Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Restore the backup to an external hard drive

    original title: if I reinstall my Vista, how to make the backup on an external hard drive? Is it a procedure drag-and - déposer? I use a Seagate external hard drive and there is no help section.

    Have run the back up to the external hard drive, I would like to know how to use it when I reinstall Vista Home Premium system.

    Also, I tried to check the hard disk for errors, and he has not finished the event.

    Assuming that you used the backup of Vista and made program a full backup and not an image backup (although some of these procedures include the restoration of a full image backup), here is some information to help you restore data.  Try to read or at least most of the analytical documents before you start, so you get a good understanding of the process and the procedures involved.  Restoring from an external hard drive is a little different from restoring a secondary internal hard drive, CD/DVD or Flash drive or on the network (although quite close to the procedure of network). If you have used the Vista backup program, you can not restore using drag-and-drop - you must use Vista restore program.

    Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

    Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

    Back up and restore: frequently asked questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

    1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

    2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

    3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

    4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

    5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

    6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

    7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

    11 guess what... no error!

    12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

    13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

    14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

    I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works and even when it does not).

    I hope this helps.
