Printers have or Support hard disks (secure Erase)

My last thread seemed to have been deleted without reason given, so I'm reposting it.

I work for a Consulting company that does a lot of work with HP printers. Our customers are concerned about the security of the data. I would like to make some sort of list to see which printer have or could have a hard drive so that they can be deleted. I have a small list began, but any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Printing/commercial Multifunction products generally have HARD disks with them.  You can try to navigate the EWS of each device page and check the configuration page or mounted accessories, that will give you information clear, if the HARD drive is installed with the device or not.

  • Windows loads and have a RAW hard disk

    Recently, I have this problem, my laptop started, he began to check for errors on the disk (D :). after reaching 100% for more than an hour, I thought it got stuck and stop my laptop with the power button.) Now when I run windows even loads disk control D: starts but its stuck at 0%

    I tried the automatic recovery, but I failed. I opened the advanced recovery, troubleshooting, and the command prompt.

    Since the command that I could access C, E, F (my 1 TB HD is divded into C, D, E, F) discs but the opening of d: it shows redudancy cyclical error. Running Chkdsk it gives an error
    Cannot run Chkdsk for RAW readers...

    I tried to ignore the disk check, but windows won't load. the loading screen just guard spinning.

    Thanks for help.

    Hello

    You might try to wipe the disk, but it may not make a difference...

    You have nothing to lose but some time...

    You probably found the RAW because the drive was damaged when the chkdsk command was arrested... She basically lost his file from formatting\partitioning...

    The reader can already failed and the reason for the chkdsk to begin with...

    Another thing, you could try that would be faster and CAN recover the drive is to reinstall windows and install a CUSTOM...  You'll get a screen to remove all the partitions and/or reformat the drive...

    Just delete them all and see if windows install and create what he needs...

    Otherwise, try again and this time format the drive in NTFS... Windows will probably be repartitioning again...

    If your installation media does not restore to factory settings, it might be a good time to spend to Win 8.1 or 10 and start again...

    You can also be in need of a new HARD drive...

  • Restoration of a virtual hard disk security descriptors?

    Greetings,

    I have a Windows 7 VPC which VHD file system corruption. I used chkdsk at startup to solve the problem. During the third phase of chkdsk, security reset of descriptors on thousands of files... the boots of the VPC, but now a lot of services and applications does not work because Windows is not able to access the files of key security descriptors have been reset.

    Now, I know that I can use TAKEOWN and ICACLS to take ownership and change the ACL, but is it possible to restore the security descriptors that they had initially? Is it information hidden somewhere in NTFS?

  • Windows Boot Manager, I want to change the Configuration of hard disk

    I have a computer with two former 500 GB Hard Drives.  The "Legacy" operating system is installed on the first physical hard disk in the system and Windows 7 is installed on the second physical hard disk, they are the identical WD drives.  I bought a new Seagate Barracuda 1000 GB drive, I want to use in place of the mark.

    So currently I have:

    SATA-0, score 0: Legacy 500 GB OS

    SATA-5, score 0: 500 GB Windows 7

    With the new player, I want to:

    SATA-0, score 0: Legacy 500 GB OS

    SATA-0, Partition 1: 500 GB Windows 7

    I have disk imaging software, able to copy both disks to the new partitions on the new disk.  What I want to know is how can ensure me that I continue to get the start menu to see the two operating systems.

    Of course, I will still have the old hard disks available, and I can always put them in.  It's just that the cloning process takes a long time, and I would like to have my procedure in advance.  The first time I have start the system with the 1 TB drive, it will not be a disk of 500 Go SATA-5, score 0: in the computer.  I don't know which files must be modified to search for Windows 7 in the new location.

    I shouldn't need to do a reinstall of windows.  I think I found the answer to what I was looking elsewhere.

    I remember that two years ago, when I set up the Dual boot system, I followed these instructions:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/8057-dual-boot-installation-Windows-7-XP.html

    When I did, I had a dual boot menu:

    -Old Version of Windows

    -Windows 7 Professional

    Of course I meant "Windows XP" rather than "earlier Version of Windows.  I searched and found that a tool exists to modify this menu.  I don't remember what they called the tool when I presented this request.  I was pretty sure that the tool would allow me to have the change of start menu where he sought the installation of Windows7.

    Today, I found the name of the tool, it is called BCDEDIT. EXE.  It allows you to safely edit the menu file, and startup locations resemble the old file boot.ini of Windows NT days.  Here's what the tool then generates on the command line.

    Windows Boot Manager
    --------------------
    identifier {bootmgr}

    Sorry to bring bad news, but... If you have a SMART hard disk error then the drive is toast. There is no way around that.

    The INTELLIGENT notification system gives you a report that the BIOS sees when it queries the hard disk during the Power On Self Test, he always does before the start in the Windows operating system.

    I hope that you have created a set of HP recovery cd. If you did, then you still have your operating system intact. If you do not, you can buy a replacement of HP recovery disk. They are inexpensive.

  • I have a laptop Advent6552 with apartition hard disk recovery program I'll be able to erase this point when I install windows 7

    will I have it clear before I upgrade or will it outomaticly clear when I update Vista fron?

    Hello

    If you do not need all the data stored in that partition, I suggest that you format.

    See: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/fr-fr/Windows-Vista/Create-and-format-a-hard-disk-partition

    Note: Upgrading to Windows 7 will write only the operating system files to this partition.

    Hard drive is Hitachi (HTS727575A9E364)

    I need my laptop to someone for a few days, so I need to make sure that my data is definitely missing.

    I can use the disk Sanitizer or present secure erase option in the BIOS. But I don't know how long it will take?

    Can someone please tell me which disk-disinfectant time and secure erase option will take to a passage?

    Hi all

    I just went ahead and did it. So for other people like me looking for the answer to this question, I will share my experience.

    When I clicked on the option of disk Sanitizer, he gave me several choices like, 1 pass, optimum, gutmen and custom. I chose optimum, it is has had warned only that data will be permanently erased, there was no estimate of the time, I had to do, I did. After 22-23 hours of waiting, he did. And the optimum had 6 cycles of option. He showed the result below.

    > I have 2 years Toshiba laptop with a HARD drive. I want to improve its performance. I need help on this.
    I have 5 years Toshiba laptop and I had the same plan. I've swapped original HDD with SSD and upgraded RAM to the maximum level (8GB). After doing this I installed the original recovery image and optimized it preinstalled version of Windows.

    The difference is simply amazing. For example, start Windows went from 2 minutes 30 seconds. I think I don't need to write more info on laptop's performance now.

    SSD and RAM upgrades can be done in most cases, by the owner of the laptop and without any risk.

    I bought a new hard drive. I don't have a system recovery disk. Can I load Windows Vista from another source and activate using my original product key?

    Hello

    There is no download available from Microsoft Vista.

    Contact the manufacturer of your laptop and ask them to send a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.

    Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    See you soon.

    p.s. If the old hard drive is still installed and running before you change on hard drives and you never received the to purchase recovery discs, you can make the recovery discs from the recovery Partition which should be on the old hard drive. You will need to request that the manufacturer how to do as each computer manufacturer has their own way of making records of this partition recovery.

    It depends on the old hard drive still works.
