Maps defective blocks disk utility?

The system version: OS X 10.11.2 (15 c 50)

With previous versions of disk utility, zero drive mapped bad blocks. This option has now replaced with the option 'private life'. Does anyone know if it does the same thing? A call to support doesn't seem to know, and there is nothing I can find in the documents on this subject.

There are still "diskutil command" in the Terminal. This feature was removed only the GUI of disk utility with many others. But they are all still available in the Terminal.

  • Disk utility first aid operation was unsuccessful and iMac freezes when it is reloaded

    iMac Intel Core (2010) 320 GB 4 GB of RAM.  Running OS 10.11.6

    Started computer, white screen appeared with the icon of a folder with an exclamation mark in the folder.  Nothing else to do, so restarted iMac, hold down the command and 'r' to open disk utility.

    Ran first aid, recommended "incorrect block are 1172 instead of 601.  File system check or repair a failure.  Operation failed. "" "First aid running not a, if possible save the data on this volume.  Click OK to continue. »

    Discount to zero is successful, but screen is frozen with no access to the hard drive.  I can't open the preferences system due to frost.

    The circle of rainbow of spinning of death continues to run so I am not able to get any other repair mechanism.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to proceed?  The iMac is obviously not able to boot to the hard drive.

    This probably means the HD has failed and must be replaced. How you proceed, is to take the computer to your local Apple authorized provider who can help replace the disk and get you back in business.

  • Disk utility "restore."

    Hello

    I bought a new external hard drive (let's call it #2), and I wanted to copy one partition on the other (let's call it #1) to it.

    If the partition called 'DATA' of 1 # must be copied in the "FAT CLONE" #2 partition.

    Both partitions were MS-DOS FAT.

    I wanted to use 'Restore' (in disk utility).

    I selected DATA as the source and the CLONE FAT as a destination.

    As I clicked "Restore", I had a doubt, I forgot to copy the data on the DATA before, in the case where something is happening.

    So I cancelled the operation, and now I can't see the DATA more in the Finder. It's still here in disk utility, but he apparently disassembled.

    So my question is: should I just remove and I find once again all my data? That's my guess, but I don't want to spoil what I have some data that is unique, it ... That's why I'm asking here.

    Kind regards

    Laurent

    Select the entry that is grayed out for the volume, then click the icon to enter the toolber back. It should reappear on your desktop. So that the process works on the destination volume must be equal to or greater that the target volume. Disk utility does not simply copy files but rather all the blocks on the volume. If the destination volume is not enough big then disk utility will notify you. Then you will need to copy the data with another backup utility such as Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • SAMSUNG SSD 850evo cannot be read on the disk utility

    My macbook pro 13 "mid-2012 has been very slow (20-minute boot) for the past month, so I quickly looked for a cure and thought I have a failing hard drive.

    I bought a Samsung 850 Evo 250 gb to replace the failed drive. Following the useful tutorials on youtube, I managed to install the ssd in my macbook pro. However, when I use the recovery of internet to install OS X on the ssd, ssd seem does not appear is not in the list of drives available in disk utility.

    Can someone help me why it does not appear in the disk utility?

    Get out the SSD drive, install it in an enclosure, connect it to the MBP via USB.  Install the original HARD disk and start the MBP.  Open disk utility and make sure that the SSD is displayed.  If so, you can format it and clone the content for the SSD from the internal HARD drive, if you wish.

    However, when you install the SSD drive and if it does not start the MBP, indicating that internal SATA cable needs to be replaced.

    If the SSD does not appear in the disk utility when it is connected to the outside, then that indicates that the SSD is defective.

    Ciao.

  • Samsung EVO850 plus disk Util is not smart

    HI -.

    I have a MacBook Pro 15 "late 2011, for which I bought a 1 to Samsung EVO 850 SSD."  I want to replace the internal MacHD with the SSD.

    I have the external SSD drive hooked to the MBP using a StarTech USB2 for SATA docking station.  Using disk utility I erased the SSD and reformatted using OSX journaled Extended.  The process took seconds to complete.  However when I check the S.M.A.R.T. status on the SSD TO THE shows 'not supported '.  Also (probably part of the same problem) - if I try to restore the MacHHD on the SSD I get the message "the restore process failed" and "volume of the Source is read-write and cannot be disassembled, so it cannot be copied from block.

    -What is the problem?  I don't know that this EVO 850 is compatible with this MBP.  Disk utility is quite simple.  But the result is not SMART.  Did I miss a step?  How can I reformat this SSD to support the Smart function.

    TIA your entry,

    Josh

    -What is the problem?

    The only thing wrong with what you mentioned is your understanding of it. everything works as expected.

    I have the external SSD drive hooked to the MBP using a StarTech USB2 for SATA docking station.

    in general, docking stations, in individuals and external drives do not support SMART status.

    Smart seemed like a good idea when it was invented, but it fell away, far from being useful. It indicates usually that your reader has a hard time AFTER that the car exploded. Or he reports that your drive is about to die, three years before his actual death.

    If I try to restore the MacHHD on the SSD, I get the message "the restore process failed" and "volume of the Source is read-write and cannot be disassembled, so it cannot be copied from block".

    You cannot copy the Volume Mac OS X is running to use the copy of disk utility that is on the Source Volume. Disk utility insists the drive mounted, so that no one else has the ability to change the contents of the disc while you are copying. You can't unmount the disk because Mac OS X is started from, so you cannot copy the path you want.

    If you want to make this copy, start under Recovery HD (which is another partition on your boot drive) and use the disk utility it. Then you can copy the Mac OS X Volume (but not the Volume of recovery HD, because it will be busy.

  • I have a Macbook pro (2011 model). It gets stuck on the start screen on to half way through commissioning. This happens whenever the mac turns on. The problem is solved when I reinstall Yosemite to boot to Recovery Mode disk utility.

    I have a Macbook pro (2011 model). It gets stuck on the start screen on to half way through commissioning. This happens whenever the mac turns on. The problem is solved when I reinstall Yosemite to boot to Recovery Mode disk utility. However, the next time you start, the startup process is blocked to halfway to new (on the screen with the toolbar and the status of apple). I want a more permanent solution to reinstall the operating system every time. Would appreciate someone's suggestions and thanks in advance.

    Replace your hard drive.

    You have a backup of trust? If not, buy a disc of exterrnal for that as well.

    The progress bar from the left end at the beginning of the commissioning indicates that your drive has been so damaged, it could not be mounted. Five minutes of progress bar is shown as it does the equivalent of disk utility (ERD [Directory]). If you have reinstalled several times and the problem is not fixed, your drive is in solid form.

  • Cloning of SSD HD via active with Filevault disk utility

    Hi all

    I want to improve my HD to SSD.

    I intend on using disk utility for recovery mode to clone my HD to a Virgin SSD I bought.

    I must, however, Filevault enabled on my HD.

    It will be a problem when it comes to cloning the drive?

    Thank you

    Adam

    No, it shouldn't be a problem. It may be necessary first turn on FileVault and encrypt the SSD. But if there is no problem just turn off FileVault on the HARD drive.

  • Can I create a recovery bootable USB through disk utility?

    My HARD drive is dying, I can't access my Macintosh HD partition anymore and I can't reinstall OS because I SMART errors. Before the format and reinstall the attempt to load slow my computer, random errors, etc. So I definitely think that the HARD drive is near death. My plan is to replace my HDD for a Virgin SSD, I perform this task several times on computers of the victory but for MAC, I wonder how I will load the new OS. Can I make a bootable USB with the recovery partition, but on a USB key tools? Unofrtunately I have more available Mac to create the USB bootable through itunes.

    My computer is the MacBook Pro (13-inch mid 2010), I have also all original packaging somewhere, if there is a CD that I can use, I certainly can get too.

    Any advice?

    Thank you!

    Apple have this to do a USB installation...

    Create an installer for OS X - Apple support bootable

    Another option is to use the diskmakerx.com application

    You must have the OS installer downloaded to make these methods of work is probably not practice on your failed drive.

    Both of these options are to run a 'normal' operating system too. The recovery partition is not 'normal '.

    Another option is to use the Internet recovery mode if your Mac supports...

    Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery - Apple Support

    On macOS recovery - Apple Support

    Use wired ethernet for best results, since it will download a bootable OS & then download the installer of the OS also.

    I suspect you have the update of the firmware installed to add this feature if it has been updated over the last 3 years

    You may be able to generate a score of alternative recovery to another disk (such as a USB key) If you want to just "compensation of base OS.

    OS X: on Recovery Disk Wizard - Apple Support

    A last solution would be to clone your drive failing on an external drive (or use the new SSD in a proper case). That can be done in the modes of recovery via disk utility. Basically, you use a feature to "restore" to clone one volume to another. (I don't see clear instructions for the moment so ask if you want to pursue this option).

  • Disk utility does not see an external drive on my network

    I'm trying to reformat the external drive that I use for backup on Time Machine, but disk utility does not see it. She appears in the Finder as a shared drive. I use OS x 10.11.6. Thank you.

    Disk utility is not supposed to see the network drives.

    If it's a USB, connect it to your computer.

    If it's an Ethernet or wireless, using a utility specifically designed for this.

  • Disk utility reports hurt his stats in recovery mode

    I have a 2 TB HD in my iMac which is only about 10% full.  Disk utility reports 1.81 TB free, just like in the finder get info tab.  My Time Machine backups are about 190 GB in size as well.  All of this is consistent.  When that I start by pressing command-R however, disk utility reports that the HD is full.

    I bought a new SSD and that you want to replace with the SSD HD, so I need to restore to the SSD HD, then Exchange.  The SSD is only 500GB, then disk utility fails restore - he thinks that there is not enough room.

    Anyone encountered this, or there at - it another way to clone the HD for the SSD?

    I have a late 2009 iMac 11.1 El Capitan 10.11.6 running with an i7 2.8 and 12 GB of RAM and 2 TB HD.  (Originally, he arrived with Snow Leopard).

    Thanks for any help.

    I would like to give CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper a try.

  • Beachball of death / impossible to find movie files shown in disk utility

    Then, I started having the awesome beachball.  All the time.  I tried first aid utility disk, in addition to empty my cache dyld.  Seems to have worked.  Looking for a solution to this as well as when I ran disk utility, it shows that I have 380 + GB of movies.  And hoping the clearing space will decrease the appearance of the beachball if nothing else.

    I realized that I had a bunch of movies sitting in a folder I have is no longer necessary, so I deleted, emptied the Recycle Bin and rebooted.  Twice.  And disk utility still shows that I have who have lots of space consumed by the movies.  I did a search through the fichiers.mp4/.mov/.m4v/etc finder and come up with very little.

    Is there something else I can / does not?  I'm not really wanting to download third party software however.

    And it is solved after leaving it alone for a while.  Probably just needs some behind the scenes stuff to happen.
