Mounting USB dynamic disk under Windows 7

Similar Questions

• Dynamic disks on Windows 7

  I created a dynamic disk on Windows 7 64-bit Professional ((6.1.7601) with applicable updates checked 10 minutes ago) by connecting directly to a SATA connection on the motherboard.

  I then tried to move the disc to my drive Startech dock (SATDOCK4U3E).  It is connected to my motherboard via USB3.0 connection.  The station has an e-sata connection by my motherboard does not work.  More further by looking at the latest motherboards, e-sata seems to be rare now that there is no Z170 cards mothers registered on TigerDirect or NewEgg.

  If I buy an e-SATA card I would be able to use the dynamic disk on my dock player?

  I am eager to dynamic disks because I'm moving all my DVD and BluRay discs on the hard drive.  I'll put up several shortcuts to the movies with the bookmarks stored in folders to actors, actresses and directors.  For example, the African Queen shortcuts will be stored under Catherine Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart, Robert Morley and John Huston.  As my collection is fairly large (more than 8 500 big crack DVD folders even if some are not complete as the only DVD folder), I am eager to readers as dynamic spanning.  The first single DVD folder filled almost a 4 TB drive.

  If Windows 7 is unable to bear this, will be Windows Server 2012?  I think until I have finished using at least 16 hard disks and I would like to clone the disks to a backup set.  If Windows Server 2012 and I have to go for it, Windows Server 2012 supports DirectX 11?

  Please forgive me for not to mention Windows 10, but I really prefer to be able to control when I install updates and those who I have install.  I might consider 10 Windows if there are never features on what I want are not on Windows 7.  So far, I have not seen new features I want or need.

  Hi Nathalie,.
  I suggest you to send your request here.

  Thank you.

• VMware-mount has the ability to mount the dynamic disk?

  I understand that there are 2 types of VMDK / disks: basic and dynamic. I would like to know if vmware-mount exe has the ability to set up dynamic disks? If so, how?

  I tried to use the command vmware-mount as:

  " X: vmware-mount ' [storage1 | ] http://communities.VMware.com/community-document-picker.jspa?communityID= & subject = storage1 "[ ] VMDKName.vmdk ' /h:IPAddress u:UserName /s:Password i:DataCenterName/vm/VMName

  but he did not succeed. It gives the following error, even if no one is using the VMDk nor is the machien powered:

  "Unable to mount the virtual drive. The disk can be used by a virtual machine, may not have enough volumes or mounted under a different drive letter. If not, check that the file is a valid virtual disk file. ».

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thank you

  VMware-mount current does not support dynamic disks.

• By aligning the dynamic disks

  Anyone know if this version offers the possibility of an alignment of the dynamic disks on Windows 2003?

  / SB

  Well, the dynamic disks are not preserved during the function clone (unlike LVM) volume and partition alignment is possible only in the volume based on cloning, so unfortunately, the answer is 'no '.

• Try to reduce a basic volume of Windows 7 on disk 0 using the new Wizard of Simple Volume, I get a warning about the conversion to a dynamic disk.

  Just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Home Edition and decided to shrink the C: drive and create a D: drive.  Everything seems to go correctly, and I get to the 'End of Volume Wizard' screen without problem.  All the choices seem to be OK but when I click OK I get a warning that says "the operation you selected will convert selected basic disks and dynamic disks...". "I want to do this?  If I do, what are the consequences?  If I don't want to convert a dynamic disk how create a D: drive which remains a basic disk?

• Windows partition under windows USB problems

  So, I created my windows 7 Home Premium on my mac, but I cannot get the USB to connect to windows to download all the drivers for Windows runs correctly. USB works on the Mac partition, it does everything just not on a windows. What can I do to fix this? Thanks for the help!

  If the USB is not recognized by Windows, you do not have a USB driver. Please download Paragon NTFS for Mac trial, and you will have access to reading / writing on the Windows partition that allows you to copy the package of drivers on the Windows side. Start Windows, and run setup.exe from the package to the location you copied to. use a destination folder that you will easily recognize.

• Tecra A8-185 - the update of the BIOS under Windows 7?

  Hi again,

  I have a question how update of the BIOS under Windows 7 ultimate x 64. I downloaded the latest version of the BIOS for my laptop (Toshiba Tecra A8-185 PTA83E). After having unpacked there is only the .exe file.

  When I try to run this file, he said, that my OS is not supported. When I run it in compatibility mode (with Vista or XP), it starts the upgrade, but gives me an error: "the BIOS upgrade is failure (8). BIOS is not able on this configuration. "What should I do? I really need a new BIOS.

  Can I run it at the start of the USB key, or whatever?

  Hi offi55

  Why do you need a new BIOS? You may notice some problems with the laptop or why are you trying to update?

  However, I think that the update should only be done on the pre-installed Windows version (XP or Vista). I guess that this update n t tested and designed to update Windows 7 so I think that would be the reason why you can t.

  So to install Windows from the Toshiba Recovery disk and try to update again. It should work.
