Media Vault - increase in size of the hard drive

I have a Media Vault with two 500 GB hard drives.  Is it possible to increase the size of hard drive beyond 500 each?

Bob

I managed to install two 750 gig drives in my Media Vault 2020 in a Raid 1 mirror.  To do this, you need to reinstall the operating system on hard drive #1.  I used the instructions provided by Lee Devlin at http://www.k0lee.com/hpmediavault/.  Tip: Before using Nasload to reload operating systm, turn off the firewall in use.

  • Increased size of the hard drive but Windows C drive still shows smaller

    I am trying to increase the size of the hard drive of my Windows XP virtual machine. I followed the instructions in the help to increase the size (rather than a second hard drive which suggested the FAQ I read later). My MAC finder shows a drop of water in my space of hard drive together, but the Windows C drive still shows the same amount as it had before starting the process. How can I get Windows to recognize the hard drive is bigger than it used to be? Will not install the program I am trying to load because of limited space.

  • Satellite Pro 4280 - what is the size of the HARD drive?

    I just bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro 4280. According to the manual, it should have a 6.0 GB HDD but in my computer it is shown as having only a 1.34 GB capacity.

    PS I formatted the disk to remove the former owner data and operating system and you have installed Windows 98SE

    Hello

    Satellite Pro 428Xcdt was certainly delivered with 6 GB HARD drive.
    Are you sure that you have checked the size of the HARD drive correctly?

    I guess the 1.34 GB is a free space on the HARD disk.

  • The recovery disk is sensitive to the size of the hard drive?

    Hello

    I just bought my new laptop Satellite.

    I have owned one of these puppies before and so I know that the Toshiba recovery disc is a ghost image.

    What I did is erased the hard drive clean because it's a piece of the circuit city showroom and t couldn't trust what was out there.

    I put Ubuntu on the laptop. I want to put Vista on a VM.

    As you can imagine, the virtual machine would have much less space than the actual size of the hard drive (200 GB) but of course, large enough to accommodate the installation of vista and all the goodies of Toshiba.

    With this all said, the image will be cough, hanging and allows me not to install during installation of the ghost due to the different size image in space? So say the laptops hard drive space, it is 200 GB, but I only allocated 50 GB virtual hard disk.

    Now I don't have a version of the class my program of schools Microsoft vista legitimate business, but I would use the home premium came with the laptop and use that Toshiba had provided me.

    Then, going to work, or it will not?

    Thank you for your comments.

    > I wonder what the disc labeled "Toshiba recovery disk' which is come with my new laptop that I just bought actually is then.
    Don t confuse boyfriend new Toshiba with Vista OS notebooks are equipped with HARD drive recovery option. But it also contains an option to create a recovery DVD in case the HARD disk will fail.

    If you buy an old series laptop with Win XP, then it might be possible that you don t have the option to drive HARD recovery, but instead, you've got a recovery disk.

    As you said above; the recovery disk contains an image (I doubt it s a ghost still image) that contains an operating system Windows, Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software.

    What is a RAID?  You could have 6 300 GB drives, RAID requires treatment, and basically, 1 disc is overload, so it seems you are using RAID 5 (if you have 6 disks).  In this case, that is right you have 1.4 flying over, which is what ESX sees.

  • How to upgrade the size of the hard drive and transfer all THE OS/software/data (image) of the original disk?

    HP desktop with a HDD normal computer. Win Vista 64-bit Windows.  But the question is generic for another one with Win7 and another with XP.

    The problem is that I want to do is to replace the hard drive with a new fresh Plus unit.  I want to keep exactly the same software as that on the original disc.   I want to know how to transfer data from the old disk to the new image.   I remember the old days BACK to copy just the files copy very well, but OS files data files and startup records, etc. etc. should be in areas on the disk, so you can not just copy the.  I know there are software packages ghosts to even a backup image to a computer, to recharge on a true double drive on a death warrant of the disc, but is it the same path to use for an upgrade?   Then, there will be no problem with MS or others by looking at the serial number of the disc material and decide on their software are installed on a new machine without a license?  etc.

    All experienced suggestions would be appreciated.

    IE brand disks: Seagate, WD, and a few others provide the software with the package of disk or from the Web site that allows cloning on the same drive size, but for a larger drive.  Acronis will be similar.  As long as the size of the disk is not unreasonable, they do it quite easily.  Depending on the age of the system, however, some may not tolerate the readers more great or the more recent huge 2 TB.

  • Increase the size of the hard drive - greyed out

    We're just trying to prepare for production and of course do some tests.

    I created a new Windows 2008 R2 64-bit server and played a bit with this with different scenarios includes the increase in the size of the virtual disk without any problems.

    I waited for Converter 4.3 so that I can convert some of my Hyper-V 2008 R2 servers.  One of our servers in development that today ' today, I converted with very few questions.  I converted the source without changing the size of the disc etc, so he created as a thick disk with about 42 GB in size.  I then played with vMotion (and also to stop the virtual machine so that I could also spend data warehouses) and at the same time changed the type of disc to thin.  Once more everything is ok.

    So the next test was to change the size of the drive... but unfortunately when I select Edit settings, then 1 hard drive, everything is gray, even though I turned off the VM (although one I created as new machine is fine to change even when powered by the look of it).

    So is this something to do with the conversion process?

    The only thing I see that is different, wise hard drive between the two is that one that is ok is defined as a SCSI device node, whereas the convert is an IDE.

    Any help most appreciated.

    Thank you

    That's your problem.  You cannot increase the IDE drive unless you use the converter again.  What I would do, is to do the conversion again, and this time, in step 3 change the controller to the SCSI (LSI).  This will then give you the option to increase the drive to move forward, without the use of the converter.

  • How can I reduce the size of the hard drive of my guest? (Ubuntu server)

    Hi all

    When I built my (Ubuntu Server 12.04) VM guest on VMware ESXi 5.1, I was a little over zealous and create it with a 500 GB hard drive. I found now that a 100 GB would easily suffice.

    I would like to reduce the hard disk up to 100 GB. How can I do this? It seems pretty obvious, how on Windows using the stand-alone converter but on Ubuntu server? I have no idea where to start and I can't find any info!

    Also, could someone please explain to me why the real used on this prompt on the host drive is 500 GB? When you use VMWorkstation the right file size grows with disk space actually used the guest. Then under ESXi, the size of the file begins at the size you specified for the server. This can be changed?

    Thanks in advance.

    Export OVF model is the one you want. This allows you to save the entire VM to one or several files (unique).
