new 4 TB drive shows 1,678 TB

I have a HP 2007 d4995t (BIOS Rev 5.08 16/08/07).  I added a new disk Seagate ST4000DM000 (4to).  It shows only 1,678 TB.  I know that the drive is OK (it indicates 4 TB in another cpu).  The controller BIOS SAT1 mode is "RAID".  What is the problem?  Or do I need a BIOS upgrade?

Hello:

You hardware must meet two requirements for the 3 or 4 TB disks work properly:

1. you must have a UEFI BIOS.
2. 4 TB hard disks must be in the GPT format.

Please see this document on the link below. Please check the following information which may help to explain why.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/297800

Your machine is about 6 years old, you can't find a suitable BIOS, but you can put it in a box outside and using Windows 7 or later for the GPT formatting.

Kind regards.

    There is no logical explanation for the SSD size down from 32 GB to 11FR?

    > Is there any logical explanation for SSD size down from 32 GB to 11FR?

    You have probably installed Win 8 on the SSD drive and this is the reason why you have only 11 GB of free space.

  • The CAB driver file - help with the new version of driver

    I am populating my MTD drivers with system of cab files and reviews of a few of them show yellow in the State saying there is a new version of Driver at support.Dell.com. I'm still new to this, if it sounds silly. Where is this driver updated exactly and how to import the said pilot in my environment of MDT? I tried to go to the page my OptiPlex model drivers and I do not know if this is where I'm supposed to find it. I downloaded the driver and extract the files. Sometimes it does not work like that; for example drivers chipset allow to extract, there is a setup.exe file that I am looking for the drivers inf on but then I've never had this work. While generally you do, when you see a new driver in the list state of CAB. Here's what I'm looking at: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/5004.optiplex-9020-windows-8-1-driver-cab.aspx

    The yellow dots on the 'Delta' report show which has been updated since the last version of the car.  This does not mean you need to get a new version of the driver.  A full explanation can be found here-> http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/4884.driver-cabs-understanding-delta-reports.aspx

    I have a mac pro 3.1. How can I transfer the system to a new and bigger drive? The old drive is much too small.

    I'm not familiar with your model computer, but there are several ways to do so.  If the computer can accommodate multiple disks, you can install the new drive next to the former.  If she does not accept another disk, you can in these external adapters for about $30, which allow you to attach a bare drive to a computer with USB.  Then, you clone the internal drive to the new. Cloning is a special form of the copy.  It copies all files including startup system files so that your new drive is essentially identical to the first.

  • Equium A80 - BIOS does not detect new CD/DVD drive

    Hello

    I had to change a DVD player in my laptop Equium A80 earlier and now have problems using the restore DVD to my laptop to factory settings. I updated the BIOS with the latest version available, but the BIOS is still not able to see the DVD player, so does not start a restore. The DVD is fine once Windows has loaded and works very well on another PC under BIOS. I tried another DVD drive on the laptop, but he is unable to see anyone.

    Anyone have any ideas on what I can try?

    Thank you!

    Hi mate,

    First of all the CD/DVD drive must be recognized in the BIOS that you can boot from the CD/DVD drive. Otherwise it of not possible to boot from the Toshiba recovery disc.

    What is the type of the old/new CD/DVD drive?

    The user manual contains a list of compatible drives. It appears here? The fact is that not all drives are compatible with all laptops.

  • How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

    Keep all image files both places?

    What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

    Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

    As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

    As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

    Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

  • Transfer iTunes library to a new external hard drive.

    I did a few years back, but as for the double control procedure to ensure I would correctly.

    My iTunes music library is stored on an external hard drive. It's almost to capacity, if I want to transfer the files from current music on an external hard drive more.

    I don't want to "lose" my preferences iTunes, settings etc that I have playlists, ratings and other data.

    I understand that the first thing is physical copy music files to the new external hard drive.

    What is the procedure to then "point" to the new hard drive.

    Thank you.

    Copy the iTunes folder whole, not only the media, on the external drive, launch iTunes with the Option key, choose this library and keep a backup on a different drive of it.

  • Satellite A100 does not recognize the new CD/DVD drive

    I bought a new CD/DVD drive for my A-100 of Toshiba Satellite age of four year old went crazy and wouldn't work.

    Unfortunately, I bought a DVD of Toshiba Portege A100 / reader Combo CD - RW that is not exactly what I had before the jump that it will still work.

    Unfortunately, I'm surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all: /...
    It seems to work, and the light blinks I think that it is not broken.

    I just plugged it because that's the way I was told to do.
    I need to download the drivers to operate?
    It will work on my laptop, or is it a "most recent" CD player that will not work with my laptop?

    I'd appreciate any help. THX

    The BIOS does not recognize this new CURIOUS because the player seems not to be fully compatible.
    I think there bad master/slave/c-salt settings

    As you know these settings can be changed on the external CD/DVD drive for desktop switching jumper. But it is not possible for computers portable CD/DVD players.

    You can solve it only purchase a new compatible disc.

    However, you can consult the user manual if there are a few details on the compatible sides.

  • Satellite P200 - 1FC - new ATI display driver

    We need a new ATI display driver: there are problems with browsers that are determined by the date of the display driver. A former pilot, and there is no WebGL for example with Firefox.

    The latest issue of Toshiba was 2009.

    Hello

    The laptop supports the Mobility Radeon® X 2600.
    Have you tried the driver from the ATI driver page?

    Usually such driver may be installed via the Device Manager.
    Choose the graphics card, select the Advanced Setup, this would help you to force the Win OS to select the downloaded driver.
    This should work but notes; the page ATI driver doesn't support protection against overheating. So, this could lead to a higher temperature of GPU

  • Replace T420s with a new SSD HARD drive

    Hello

    I wonderd if it is possible to replace with a new SSD HARD drive, while putting the HARD drive in the Bay of Ultra-slot.

    And if so, what SSD model should I buy, and how do I transfer the operating system and the data for the SSD?

    This SSD model will be compatible?

    Corsair neutron Series 120 GB SSD Sata III MLC 2.5 inches Retail

    Thank you very much

    Guy

    Yes, what you are proposing is quite feasible. You will need an adapter Ultabay to organize your HARD drive in the Ultrabay housing on your system. These are available from Lenovo, but are relatively expensive. You can get a much less expensive (~ $ 10) a compatible version on eBay. It is not as well finished as the real issue, but it works well.

    The best way to transfer everything on your SSD is "clone" of your HARD disk using a software as Acronis True Image. If your current HARD drive is made by Western Digital or Seagate you can get a free copy of Acronis on their Web site. Put the SSD in the SATA drive Bay and the HARD disk in the UtlraBay. Set the T520 to start from the Ultrabay, install/run Acronis here and make a clone for the SSD. Then boot from the SSD and you'll be all set.

    With respect to the SSD, many people here have had good success with Crucial M4, 520 Intel and Samsung 830. I guess that Corsair works perfectly as well, but I didn't know all messages from people here who have done so.

    Before ordering a SSD confirm if the HARD drive is 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick. Then order the same thickness SSD. This way, you will be able to use the metal rails caddy and rubber who now hold your HARD drive to contain the SSD.
