Inspiron 530: drive external sata hard not automatically recognized.

Hello
I have an external sata Hitachi HD.
It comes with a back plate for external sata connector.
When I plug this HD anything happen on windows (Vista SP1), I need to go into the Device Manager and search for new devices.
The HD appears, then it is mounted.
But it should not work this way.

On my old computer (Asus motherboard and windows XP SP2) this HD works just like any USB device:
When I plug in the external Sata connector, it mounts instantly and removable devices icon will appear in the bottom right of windows.
If I want to remove the HD I just need to click on this icon and select the HD.

I would like to than this HD to work on my Dell, as it does on my old computer.
Is it possible?

Thank you for your help.

  • DELL new 1 TB drive 6 GB/s SATA is not correctly recognized by DELL SAS 6/ir controller

    I have a Dell PowerEdge R310 with a Raid SAS 6iR controller
    with a SATA 2 x 1 TB drives RAID1 volume.
    The SAS Raid Controller is a LSI1068E chipset.
    Now, I bought a new drive to replace a faulty in the RAID1 volume.
    Has bought the drive with Dell
    400-18614 1 TB SATA 7.2 k 3.5 "HD Hot Plug fully assembled - Kit
    It seems that it is a seagate ST1000NM0033.
    It is a 6GB SATA drive.
    When I replaced the defective drive - the RAID1 game not resync No.
    In fact, the controller has not see the drive. When I plugged the drive
    in another (new), the Bay, and then the controller did see the drive, however,
    it it detected as a virtual disk with only 3950 MB (4 GB)!
    Any idea if this disc is:
    -broken?
    -not compatible with / 3GB SATA?
    -needs jumpers positioned to be compatible?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi all

    Thanks for the comments.

    However, in my opinion, the disc should work and I shouldn't waste my time at low level

    kind of things. It should be "swap-out/swap-in/resync '...

    So I called the support technique dell that the disc is not good.

    Come back my money - ordered a new one - exactly the same model - and it works very well!

    If the disc was just DOA.

    Thank you all for your time tho.

    Kind regards

  • Inspiron 530 Win XP Home does not start with the TrendNet wireless card

    I just received 5/1 a refurbished Inspiron 530 530 Mini-Tower desktop: Intel Core 2 Quad processor Q6600 (8 MB L2 cache, 2.4 GHz, 1066FSB) Genuine Windows XP Home Edition. The PC didn't have any LAN card and I intend to use a working adapter TrendNet (COMPUSA) 54 Mbps Wireless G PCI I used very well with my old 4300 Dim run also Win XP Home. However, after that I booted up the new PC with the first series, I stopped him. I then opened and installed the card wireless in one of the 2 empty PCI slots. When I turned on the PC, surprise! The PC wouldn't start - it kept beeping with the glowing orange of front power button and turn off every two seconds, I then read the Inspiron 530 manual means that the motherboard has detected an error. Hello. I checked.

    I searched other posts in this forum and I've seen a few references to the boot configuration verification. However, installation of starting my PC doesn't have an option related to the wireless adapter.

    Someone help me please fix this error. I intend to reconnect the card on my old PC wireless again and start just to prove that the card is always good. I only removed a card video of him and the rest of the asis. (I've not carpet in my house is that reduces my chances to have fried the card when you remove or install.) I also touch the chassis of the PC before doing anything.)


  • Not automatically recognized helmet

    I recently bought an Inspiron 15R. At first when I plugged my headphones and the sound continues to play through the speakers, I thought there was a problem with the plug. However, I realized that a screen has been popping up in the background, asking me to recognize that I plugged in a headset. After click on this several times over several days, I chose the option to not have the message appear each time that something was plugged (incorrectly assuming that this would mean every time that these headphones are connected, they would be automatically recognized). What can I do to make them known?

    I don't think the 15R 5537 has a faulty driver wherever the grateful helmet, but we have seen many reports of whistles through the headphone jack. It is still unclear if this is a driver or a hardware problem.

    In your case I advise you to do:

    Open Device Manager and expand the sound controllers section. Right click on the Realtek, and select uninstall. Put a checkmark in the delete files optionand then ok. When you restart, Windows either will install its own native driver or a Realtek driver if there was other versions on the hard drive. Then go back to Device Manager and look for a Realtek driver. Keep the uninstall & reboot until Realtek no longer appears under controllers, noise and "High definition Audio Device" appears in its place.

    When you do that, you will use the native Windows audio driver. Test again the headphone jack. Complete the test by downloading a new copy of the Realtek driver from the page downloads 5537 15R (be sure the first select your operating system from the drop-down list).

    If the headset now works with the new copy of the Realtek driver, it could be a bad configuration. If the helmet did not work with the native driver or the Realtek, test the headset with other devices for you sure they work. If they then contact technical support to report this problem and see about repair.

  • HARD drive external, Toshiba PX1395E, not plug and play in Windows XP

    Hi all

    Thanks for reading this.

    Just bought a number of HDD 2.0 USB 750 GB external PX1395E.
    I want to use to back up files from my old computer to my new computer.
    In fact, my old pc recognizes the HARD drive (plug-and-play) and I already copied the required data.

    BUT: my new computer, with Windows XP Professional, Service pack 3. Does NOT recognize the HARD drive.
    I used several (versions 1.1 and 2.0) USB ports and everything is connected to the way that it should.
    Windows tells me that I have plugged 'something', but is unable to recognize what it is and I can't use the material.

    I think I need a driver to make this work. Site Web de Toshiba does not provide this particular driver (I checked, but it cannot find).

    Is there anyone with a solution?

    Thanks in advance.

    Do you see the HARD drive in the disk management?
    Control Panel-administrative tools-online-online disk management computer management online

    Another way is that reinstall you the chipset driver. Look at the Toshiba site to download and choose the right one.

    Look for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager.

    Let me know, what you're doing.

  • External SATA hard drive Possible?

    I have an Optiplex gx270s Pentium 4, 1 GB RAM.  Using XP Pro with Service Pack 2.  I am currently using a 320 GB Seagate IDE hard drive.  I am trying to record music and space need more hard disk.  Music production forums I've read suggest that you use an external drive for recording and editing.  My question is: can I connect a 500 GB to 750 GB SATA drive to this computer as an external drive?  If so, how?  I don't want to leave the file open, so I can't connect to the motherboard SATA and power connections while using the external drive.

  • R720 can I connect drive sas/sata hard without controller card?

    I have a r720 without raid card.  When I plug a ssd or disc of 15 k / 10 k sas on the hotswap backplane, chassis recognizes the drive is connected (I get an orange light and lcd to alert that the disc is removed when I go out).  However, the bios and the operating system does not recognize any disks hotswap (they see only the optical drive connected to the ports on the motherboard sata.

    Do I need a controller card to use drives connected on the backplane, or is it possible to use backplane without controller card?  I didn't need raid functionality.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Shane

    ntshane
    Do I need a controller card to use drives connected on the backplane, or is it possible to use backplane without controller card?  I didn't need raid functionality.

    Yes, you must have a controller connected to the bottom of basket. If you have purchased the system without a RAID controller should have a SAS cable that goes from the backplane to the slot of controller S110 chipset on the system board.

    You can use the S110 SATA controller on board for communication with backplane. Well, there are limits to the S110 controller, so may not suit your needs. You can probably buy LSI 9207 if you want readers to run in a non-RAID. The other options are a H710 PERC; which you can set the readers to the single drive RAID 0 s. In this State, they function as drives no RAID. You can also get a H310. The H310 supports the RAID mode, but we have added a few features to the H310 who do not find in previous versions of the card. In doing so, it reduced performance when operating in a mode non-RAID.

    The reason why I say that you'll probably want another controller than the S110 is because you mentioned that you have SAS disks. The S110 is a single SATA controller. In addition, the S110 is supported up to 4 discs.

    To access the BIOS RAID make sure the S110 is turned on in THE system BIOS. In the BIOS, go to SATA settings. In the menu choose the RAID mode. It will turn on the S110 controller. You can configure the drives in the BIOS S110 when booting with the CTL R. I do not know what operating system, you perform the installation, but the S110 is compatible with Windows.

    Thank you

  • My dell inspiron 530 built in webcam is not detected on Windows Vista

    Since my computer crashed and I had to re - install all the CD that came with my computer, the built-in webcam and microphone can not be detected by the computer.  I think that the driver can be in a place where the computer does not find it.  Can anyone offer me any advice?  It has been a long time and I really miss my webcam and the ability to use my Audacity to record my own music.

  • ACR not not automatically recognizing objective profile for Sigma 150-600 C

    If I put the lens profile correction auto and took a shot with the Sigma C 150-600 (on any of my body Canon - SL1, 6 d, 70 d) I get a message saying 'Impossible to locate the corresponding lens automatically profile '.

    As soon as I select Sigma in the drop-down list, the right lens is selected and profile correctly applied to the image, but it's a total pain as I have to do it manually for each shot, or cover replace the car with Sigma, which throws everything if I got caught with more than one objective in a session.

    Is there something that can be done to make it recognize? CC of Photoshop and ACR are both up-to-date after the update.

    You are welcome. Thanks for the image of the sample.

    First thing I noticed is that the name of lens EXIF '150-600mm F5-6. 3 DG OS HSM | Contemporary 015 "

    In the original example images, that we received from SIGMA, the name was 150-600mm.

    Change you EXIF data using an external tool?

    If not, it may be that SIGMA has released an update of the firmware that I wasn't aware that includes an updated lens name. In any case, I can easily solve this problem and it is ready for our next release.

    Kind regards

  • SATA HDD not foud

    new disk sata hard not found on my computer laptop Gateway E - 475 M when I start windows install all the file load down, but when he finished and ask I want to set up windows xp now press Enter, I get Setup did find any hard drives installed in your computer. Any help on this

    Thank you

    Windows XP Setup disks have been created until the SATA drives existing and therefore Windows installation floppies do not recognize him (they have no drivers for it).  The solution is to look carefully on the installation and you will see a point where a message down prompting you to press F6 to load external drivers.  At this point, you must press the F6 key and install a floppy disk (Yes, need a floppy disk) in the floppy disk drive that contains drivers for your SATA drive.  If you do not have a working floppy drive, you must create an another Setup by 'slip-streaming' the SATA driver disk in the installation disc.  There are Web sites that will help you in this process if necessary.

    "Limited OEM driver support is available with F6 during installation of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003"

  • Recommendations for a second hard drive for my Inspiron 530 please

    Hello

    I have an Inspiron 530 standard.

    My main 320 HARD disk drive is approaching full and I want to add a second internal HDD.

    My intention was to use the new drive as a secondary drive just to store and edit photos.

    Can anyone recommend a compatible drive about 500 GB in size I can use.

    Can you tell me if there a SATA drive that I need, recommended speed (RPM) and I'll need to get all the connectors etc.

    Thanks in advance for your help and advice

    Assuming you have the Inspiron 530 mini tour and not Slimline 530 s version.

    You can install any SATA 3.5 "internal hard drive 7200 RPM up to 2 TB without problem.

    Discover the brands Seagate and Western Digital, also check the length of the manufacturer's warranty, unfortunately hard drives prices are extremely high, due to the flooding of the Thailand, readers, I bought last September for $40 with a promo, now costs $108.

    Instructions for the installation of a second hard drive physically in a 530 are here.

    You will need a SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.

    After you have installed the drive, enter the system setup and make sure the hard drive is "on" [We] and recognized.  The system configuration.

    For windows to recognize the second hard drive, it must be partitioned and formatted. Go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management, storage, disk management, right click on the new drive, select format, then you can assign a drive letter.

  • Adding 2nd hard drive for Inspiron 530

    I have a Dell Inspiron 530 which has a Samsung 320 hard drive.  I would like to add a second hard drive to put photos, etc.  Green a Western Digital 2 TB 3.5 "SATA looks like a possibility.  However, images, like most of the internal drives I saw pictures, he has one open side showing the drive mechanism.  The Samsung already in the PC is covered.  The additional disc will not become covered with dust (my PC had a lot of cobwebs in it when I opened it to the top!)?  Any advice on which drive to choose and how to install it would also be appreciated.

    dellby

    All computers must be inside the frame, cleaned all the dust on a regular basis.

    I have two HD SATA and SSD installed in my Inspiron 530 mini tour and have never had a problem of "dust."

    Keep the air intakes located on the façade behind the clean HD of any accumulation of dust, helps to cool the hard drives.

    Instructions for the installation of a second hard drive physically in a 530 are here:

    FTP://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/Inspiron-530_owner%27s%20manual_en-us.PDF

    Will need you a SATA data cable, there should be a spare power connector SATA inside the case and four 6-32 X 1/4, Phillips head screws to mount the drive.

    Connect the SATA data cable to the SATA connector on the motherboard.

    After you have installed the drive, enter the system setup and make sure the hard drive is "on" [We] and recognized.

    For windows to recognize the second hard drive, it must be partitioned and formatted.

    Go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management, storage, disk management, right click on the new drive, select format, then you can assign a drive letter.

    Hard drives Western Digital and Seagate are good, my preference is for Western Digital.

    Also check the length of the manufacturer's warranty, plus the best guarantee.
