• How to clear the HARD drive for confidential data before attaching to the third party?

  My HARD drive needs to be fixed and would like to know how to erase confidential data in the HARD drive before giving it to third parties.

  Reformatted would it be sufficient?

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions

  The best way in my opinion is using AutoNuke in Dban. Make sure you have the desired data off the drive hard until you execute Dban. Once you run it, it's over.

• HARD drive crashed, need to install vista on the new drive. Pc product key is dispelled. Is this possible?

  I may be able to start my drive enough to get something out of windows itself, but the drive does often not at all. The recovery partition is toast as well. It is a true copy of Vista 32 bit Home Edition, but the key on the bottom is almost completely dissipated, essentially unusable. How should I proceed?

• internal hard drive for Inspiron 6000

  Someone has any suggestions where to find a replacement 60 DH GB or more compatible HD?

  The drive is parallel ATA - SATA not.  If you replace the drive with a larger than 120G, it MUST be parittioned and Windows must be installed UNDER the barrier of 120G.  If you install Windows on a partition that crosses or exceeds 120G barrier, you will one day put the chain on a disc read error and lose everything on the disc.

• What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a pavilion d4790y desktop computer?

  What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a desktop pavilion d4790y?

  It would be a secondary drive, not the boot drive.

  The operating system is Vista Home Premium, 32-bit.  The version of the BIOS is 5.08.

  Are there any changes or upgrades that would allow an internal hard drive 3 TB to install?

  Here are the specifications and configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion d4790y and here are the specifications of its card mother P5BW - THE (Basswood2). Based on the specifications and the age of the computer, I would expect you to use a hard drive 3 TB as a secondary drive on Windows Vista (DISPLACEMENT SP1 or SP2) and Windows 7. Formatted as MBR would require the drive to use with a minimum of two partitions. Formatted as GPT would require only a single partition. In no case will you be able to use the 3 TB as a boot device drive because your computer does not support a UEFI BIOS that allows booting from a GPT formatted disk. No changes or updated should be held.

• new hard drive for laptop

  I have a laptop dv7-3140el and HD samsung HM641JI 640GB 2.5 "SATA 5400 RPM (to replace car failure). To buy a new hard drive I have to take the same or I can take 7200 RPM instead of 5400? What technical specifications should I look for when buying a hard drive for computer laptop dv7-3140el? I wouldn't make a bad purchase!

  Sorry for my bad English

  Hello

  Here are a few points to note when replacing your HARD drive:

  You are not limited to any particular drive manufacturer.

  The speed of rotation of the disc can be 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM

  The new drive HARD should be at least the same capacity (or slightly more is okay) as the original drive - mounting a drive smaller than the original often causes risks with recovery media.

  The player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

  750 GB hard drive for laptop.

  If necessary, the procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 47 of your maintenance & Service Guide.

  Kind regards

• Available to add the second internal hard drive to 17-e117dx

  Hello

  Can you let me know, if there is provision to add the second internal hard drive for HP Pavilion e117dx 17.

  If so, one) is there requirments or the specifications of the hard disk (any make or model); (b) what equipment will be needed and where I can get to and c) Finally will be doing so make sure the warranty of my laptop HP Sub

  HP Pavilion

  Product: F9J38UA #ABA

  Model: 17-e117dx

  Thank you

  Not in the way you probably do. Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  See Page 50. Unlike the Envy 17 and Pavilion dv7, Pavilion 17 has that a single hard drive Bay. The only way to add a second hard drive is to remove the DVD (optical drive) and insert a DVD to the hard drive bay adapter. The manual shows how to remove the DVD player and you can buy the adapter at amazon.com or jacobsparts.com. Note that this is a 9.5 mm thick disc, not a 12.7 mm. Both types are available. I do not recommend the adapter DVD player solution because you lose the use of the optical drive, and also because the interface of optical drive is usually not as fast as the main hard drive interface. Always fast enough for simple storage and you can run a video of her, but you do not want to edit the video of this disc, for example.

  https://www.jacobsparts.com/items/HDDBAY-02/

  If you decide to go the route of adapter DVD I would buy a large capacity 5400 RPM SATA 2.5 inches wide and drive hard thickness 9.5 mm. No sense in buying a reader more expensive high-performance.

• X 51 - R2, BSOD, internal hard drive not found

  I get a blue screen on average once a day telling me that it is a: KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR until the computer tries to restart bring me to a black screen saying that the internal hard drive is not found. Turn off the computer and restart it solves the problem and the computer works well until the next blue screen. The first time that this happened was right, once I had configured Windows 8 and was about to enter the control panel. It happens literally just out of the blue, often when you make simple and menial tasks. I ran all the Dell diagnostics and apparently everything is fine. Again, as mentioned in the title, it is a brand new Alienware X 51 R2; I unpacked it a week ago.

  If anyone else has had this problem, and if you have, did you find a solution?

  I have been in dialogue with the technical support and ultimately the motherboard and HARD drive had to be replaced. This seems to fix the problem and the computer runs great now without any problem whatsoever.

• Vista boot from the external HARD drive when 7 is installed on the internal HARD disk

  I had windows Vista pre-installed on my HP laptop, now I installed the new hard drive and downloaded windows 7 on it. and I use my drive HARD back as my external storage medium and it came with vista pre-installed. is it possible to start fromUSB and use vista alternately without remove current HDD with 7 and keep their replacement on a vice versa. I already changed the boot order, but it shows the blue screen and then goes out... help me if you think you have the solution for me...

  Hello

   
  You can not install Windows vista on a USB hard drive. The reason is that manager (Bootmgr) boot will always be on the internal hard drive and will not read the USB drive letter properly and it continues to change.
  However, you can install the two HDD internally, and then you can have a dual boot option by adding the entries in startup of the operating system Windows Vista, Startup Manager (boot mgr).

• PC tries to boot from external USB instead of the internal hard drive at startup

  Hi, I just took delivery of a refurbished Pavilion p6793. I noticed that the system does not boot if I have my external USB drive connected. It happens with one cannot find the message of charger and asks me to hit ctrl-alt-del to restart. I suspect it's because it's the search for the o/s on USB instead of the internal hard drive. Can you tell me what I need to check and change to allow me to boot from the hard drive even if the drive is connected. Thank you.

  Hello:

  You should probably go into your BIOS by pressing F10 at HP welcome screen and changing the options in the start for the HDD menu start the first.

  Then you can set the boot for other devices as you order please.

  Make sure that you save your settings, where you made the change, and again when you go out.

  When you specifically want to start on a device, press the F9 key to the HP welcome screen and you will be presented with a single boot options menu where you can choose from any one of the bootable devices listed.
