new cloned hard drive is really slow


Please provide the name of the operating system that your computer is running. Also provide the complete model of the new hard disk number or indicate if it is an 'Advanced Format' AF drive. Please see "identifying year Advanced Format hard drive"

If it's a record of AF, please see "preparing Advanced Format Hard Drive for Windows" and "improving the Performance of year Advanced Format hard drive" for more information on the subject and the possible steps to solve your problem.

My guess is that you have a hard drive AF and running Windows XP... XP can not support this drive that XP is not aware of the specification of the AF.

  • How the value catalog new internal hard drive more and then delete the files from the smallest

    I just got a new 1 TB internal on cloned hard drive 500 GB internal hard drive installed on my PC, then the smaller original. The new 1 TB is now Local Dick C and the smallest 500 GB by C has been changed and is now Local Disk F. PSE11 runs from the new C and all my photos are on C and F, but the catalog showed up at F. I want to delete all the old files on F for free space because they are all cloned to the new 1 TB C, so I want to catalog PSE11 only point to the pictures on C I tried to create a new catalog and import my pictures from C. The images arrive and look tuned to C but when I close PSE11 and then reopen this new catalogue, the path of the image shows F, as does the original catalogue. So, now, I have two catalogs seem to point to F but I want: 1) have a single catalog pointing to C; (2) deleting catalogs pointing to F; (3) then reformat f: so I have a 500 GB clean old hard drive for future expansion. Peuvent some please help?

    The problem is related to the cloning process.

    As stated in the first post of Neale, the Organizer acknowledges readers by their letter AND their serial number. In these situations, both drives have the same serial number and the Organizer cannot tell who is who...

    More information in the help file on John R Ellis from his psedbtool:

    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/#_Writing_File_Metadata

    Scroll down to: "change the serial number of the drive, a Volume."

    Check first with the DOS command 'Flight' that both disks have the same volume id, and then try to change one of the drives serial.

    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?

    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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive

    I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive because the drop-down list in the Disk Management Console does not give me this option. I'm logged in as an administrator and running Windows XP.  The driver for the new hardware is not digitally signed because I can't initialize the disk.  So I can't get my new hardware to run.  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the option "Initialize disk" in the Disk Management Console?

    Hello Honduras1,

    Can you simply right-click and format everything first?  The drive must be formatted before use, make sure that you format NTFS.

    See you soon

    To install a new second hard drive, I went to the Manager > storage > management of the disks and initialized the new drive with a right click on the left side. Now I guess I need right-click right the right side to make a 'new Volume Simple Format' my question is

    1 Select 'quick format '? and

    Hi Spaceman 69,

    Just select Quick format. You need not enable compression of files and folders.

    Original title: startup problem

    Hi SomBhattacharya,

    Please try the possible fix following first thanks to Carey Frisch:

    1. open the BIOS of the motherboard.
    2. find where it says Priority Boot Device, then select CD/DVD-ROM 1, 2nd Hard Drive and disable all the rest.
    3 find somewhere in the BIOS where it says BOOT USB, Wake on USB, etc. and disable all unnecessary options.

    And second if it does not help, you can try the following with Blue Michael:

    Local Geek Squad had me intentionally set the BIOS to the correct order, then re-order and SAVE.
    It worked, even if the list of the BIOS was always in the right order.

    I hope this helps!

    See page 98 of this PDF

    Yes, install the new hard drive, and then boot from the recovery disc 1 to start the recovery. You do not need to use a product key with the recovery discs, it is preinstalled

    In what year did you buy this laptop and which OS came with it? This weill help me point you to a few documents on the way to recovery this laptop.

    If you buy a hard drive Western Digital brand, or your old is WD, they have a free cloning software, it will work if you have at least one brand WD hard drive is detected in the operating system, so if your old or new hard drive WD brand, it does not work, the WD drive must be connected to the computer at the time of the installation of the software.

    With the help of Mac Cougar and LR 4.3. I want to have everything on an external hard drive, but need to move now to a smaller drive to another bigger. How?

    Probably the best way to go is to use the Finder to all move to the new HD, keeping the same folder tree structure, and then inside Lightroom reconnect (as explained here: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm)

    The black chassis has a textured finish that allows to eliminate the traces of finger and gives a classic look.

    A lot of people on this forum topic reports similar. You must understand that for laptop with factory settings is not optimized, and each of us must make own configuration of operating system.
    For example, new notebook will do the automatic updates of Windows. With other words when Windows detects new updates it will download and installed in the background and that you know something like this running in the background. This will slow down the activity internet and laptop performance quickly.

    I recommend to install all Windows updates and change the settings in Control Panel > windows update > change settings. Use the option check the updates but let me choose... in the future you will be informed of the updates, but you can install them when you don't need machine for your work.

    Test it please
