R310 adding hard drive space

Greetings! I have a Dell R310 with the standard configuration 250Gig Raid1 hard drives 2 x 250gig, that gives a virtual disk. Question, can I buy another SATA to 2 x 1 TB drives and create a second virtual disk with Raid1 or should I break the current Raid1(possibly format) before adding more storage? Thanks, Gavin

Hello Gavin

Gavincr001
Can I buy another SATA to 2 x 1 TB drives and create a second virtual disk with Raid1

Yes, you should be able to. If you have slots for 2 additional readers, then you can create a second table. I don't know any of our controllers that support only RAID 1 array.

Thank you

  • I lose a hard drive space every day on my Windows 7 computer

    My computer is barely a month.  I only put on about 6 programs, all with small footprints.  I transferred to about 70 GB of files.  I know that the system uses the memory out of the box, but even with all that taken into account, that I can't take into account more than 40 GB of space and the amount increases every day.

    I was check and each day I lose a few GB of hard drive space.  Where's he going?  There is much info on Vista and some of its features that uses a hard disk space, I guess than some that apply to Windows 7.  But seriously, for example I lost 2GB between yesterday and today, and I have absolutely nothing to the computer.

    Clean temporary files and use Disk Cleanup to reclaim space.  But it is usually minimal and it does not take into account what I lose.  I have the system to restore all of the space to a fairly small percentage.  In summary, I think I have everything correct in order to minimize the use of hard drive, but the space is to be consumed at an alarming rate.  No virus, MSE is on the system and did not find a thing.

    Where the hell the space continues?  I am glad that I have a large hard drive, so there is move the room, but it's ridiculous to have disk space available endangered on its own.  I don't know that it's associated BONE.  Thoughts?

  • Many disappear from the hard drive space

    Hello

    Recently I factory reset my computer and proceeded to put some of my old files save them on the computer. Some of the files were games, but I realized that I couldn't play without resettlement of their records. I was unable to uninstall properly an any of them, so I just deleted files - but I noticed after I had deleted the files that I had lost more (about 30-40 GB worth) hard disk space

    When I went to reinstall these games of their records, I found that they were taking about three times as much space as they said they would be (for example, it said it would take up to about 3.5 GB of space, but it ended up taking 11 concerts of my DD)

    Since then, I've lost an another 30 concerts without doing anything.

    Is there a reason for this? I scanned my computer for any sort of malware with two different anti virus systems, and they all come in white. I have two firewalls running as well, so I highly doubt that it is malware.

    I managed to solve the problem.

    System Restore has been fixed to raise as much as 50% of my hard drive space. I have since lowered to a more reasonable amount and have obtained a large part of the rear of space SD, and I at least know where the rest. Thank you very much for the help.

  • My (C) hard drive space becomes low. What can I do?

    Hello

    My Windows Update is set to the recommended level. (C) hard drive space becomes low and other drives (E, F, G) have enough space. What happens if the C drive space comes to level down while Windows Update is taking place. The minimum amount of space have stand to drive C? How to manage the process?

    Your cooperation will be appreciated.

    Thanks & Rgds,
    Solvemachine

    You really need to think about 15%, a minimum of free space on the disk.

    Your 1st task is to try to identify the cause of the lack of space. Things like music, photos and especially video may gradually creep on you.

    TreeSize here is quite useful to work where space is gone.

    Libraries can be moved. Expand 1st level of etiquette in the left pane to display the top folder and right-click. The location of the tab, you can change the location of one of the empty discs and it will copy all files when you click on move. If you have more than one user, it is best to create a record of the user for each group and then do it for each of them. Don't forget to check the new location is included in all of the backups.

    Also use disk cleanup too. Open the computer, right click on the C drive, and then click Properties. Click Disk Cleanup. For more options in the result, click on the option of system files and see what you can get rid of.

    Check the system restore to see how much disk space it uses:

    Click Start

    Right click on computer

    Click on properties

    Click on advanced system settings

    Click on the System Protection

    Click on configure

  • Is there a reason to save the original NEF files after import for the LR in the form of files 'convert to DNG?  Is there a reason to save the two versions?  The NAVE seems to have no further use other than too much hard drive space.

    Is there a reason to save the original NEF files after import for the LR in the form of files 'convert to DNG?  Why save versions when the DNG is the original and the NAVE seems to just take remote hard drive space?

    I see no reason to keep them, they take a lot of space, one of the reasons to convert to DNG is that they are almost 20% smaller than the ships.

  • Bridge takes a lot of hard drive space

    Hello world

    IM new to this forum and new also for Photoshop CS6 and everything that surounds it.

    I had a small question which may be simple to you guys but its been annoys me a bit

    I work with bridge this morning and import pictures in it. Then I looked at my hard drive space and he was down about 5 GB. I do not change or do anything special, just imported photos so it would be easier when I start using PS CS6. Is it normal when I import images that it takes up little space on my hard drive. I thought that the bridge was used only to create a link between my photo file and Psalm I then tried to remove the images in Bridge to see if space would come back available, but it didn't. Anyone? Please help me to answer my questions?

    Thank you

    PS: I have 164 GB of free space on my hard drive, if it helps. Thanks again

    Post edited by: Black147

    What you see is normal.  Once you import pictures Bridge generates a cache file, then you can disply a thumbnail.  Delete the picture will still retain the thumbnail, which is the function of compact cache.

    The options you choose depend on the size of the cache.   Embedded thumbnails takes less space.  If you check generate and save previews of 100% that will really increase the size of the cache folder.

    See this thread for more information on the cache.  http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1094509?TSTART=0

  • MacBook Air missing hard drive space

    I noticed that the free space on the hard drive on my Macbook Air has been quickly disappear even if I had not been adding lots of new files, certainly not enough to account for the 10s of gigabytes that disappeared last week. I cleaned it of useless media files, which gives him another 20 GB of space. The status bar it reflects accurately at first, but when I started the computer this morning, it had lost 30 GB of this adjustment.

    After you run WhatSize DaisyDisk, I see that they have both claim that my Air uses Go 296, which is in agreement with the about this Mac, but when you look at the size of the actual folders, there is no way that they measure is added to this amount.

    Using Get Info, I got the following:

    14.43 applications gb

    Users 42,45

    System of 7.77

    Library of 8.95

    That all adds up to about 74 GB of used space. WhatSize actually gives me different numbers. Where in the world are the other 220 or so lack of gbs? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    (Note: although I typed this out, I noticed that about 8 GB of free space have disappeared in the status bar)

    Here are a few screenshots of WhatSize and disk utility. Of THE claims that 'other' includes 283 GB, but I can't understand what is included in whatever measure it as 'other '.

  • Pavilion 500 adding hard drive

    Bought a desktop Pavilion 500 computer last week.  Kind of disappointed with the documentation that comes with it, also disappointed with the documentaion on this site, just seems to have two manuals supplied with the computer, PDF files (but, maybe I'm not looking in the right place).  Nothing in the documentation provided with your computer that shows what the computer looks like inside, no info at all on the update of the computer (adding another hard drive - what memory?).  I open the computer and take a look to see what is inside, but the manual says that if I open the computer and break the security seal I certify that the computer was working properly until I tried to upgrade the computer, and if the security seal is broken it could screw up my warranty.  I think there must be space for another hard drive, but who knows.  I would like to install the IDE of my old computer hard disk, do not know if this is possible.  I know I can get a disk enclosure and connect it to a USB port, but prefer to install the drive in the computer (may be screwing up the warranty...).  If an IDE drive may not be installed on the computer, as it is, maybe some sort of a SATA to IDE adapter or card would work.  Anyone have any ideas?

    According to respondents, this adapter converts IDE drives to Sata port.

  • Pavilion 500-098: adding hard drive, but no 2nd hard drive Bay

    I want to add a second internal hard drive to this computer, but unfortunately the computer has only a hard drive Bay. There is plenty of space for a second hard drive, I thought that I would put the player in the unused space, setting in place somehow so that it does not move. I know I could install an external hard drive, but prefer to have an internal hard drive. The power supply has a supplement of power supply (unused) harddrive.  The motherboard is a Joshua-H61-Μatx. It has 4 SATA connections on it.  SATA0 is connected to the hard drive, SATA2 is connected to the DVD player. SATA1 and SATA3 are free. My idea of adding a second hard drive without a second HDD Bay would work?

  • HP Pavilion DV6 6053ea - SSD SATA III HARD disk? & HARD drive space gone?

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion DV6 6053ea. It works fairly well, but I think I have an SSD would really speed up the loading of programs and start etc. I'm not so sure that the upgrade. I read on a thread if I had Port SATA 1 6 Gbps Supported or SATA Port 0 6 Gbps then my cell phone was good for SATA III. Is this the case? Joined a program hwinfo32 image, can you check if my phone would support SATA III?

    The other issue is my HD. My laptop says I have 750GB HD coming to about 700 GB after formatting. But my laptop seems to have only a total of 350 GB with all sectors added together. Where is the space?

    Hello

    Yes, your laptop has 2 ports SATA 6 GB/s (SATA III) most likely the hard drive and an optical drive are connected on it. There are also 2 SATA 3Gbps ports but not in use, I guess.

    The other issue is that there are 4 partitions but the partition 0 is strange and shouldn't be there. There should be a small boot for Windows partition (for BitLocker etc.), drive C: with Windows, D: drive with a partition recovery and partition Tools HP QuickWeb and some diagnostic utilities. It seems that the recovery partition is missing, the C: drive has been decreased and then created a small partition at the beginning of the hard disk. Take a look at disk management in administrative tools in the control panel this partitioning is on the hard drive.

    When you create a snapshot of a virtual computer, new vmdk file are created to write all the new data since the snapshot.

    This new wil vmdk (normally vmname "_00000001.vmdk" "") to develop until the snapshot is deleted.

    This means that if you have a 100 GB datastore race a virtual machine with a 20 GB vDisk Ofbrussels take snapshot, the new file * _0000001.vmdk can grow until the data store is filled. So the instant vmdk can grow much larger than the original vmdk

    The interesting part is, and I think that is where your problem.

    Let's say you have a virtual machine with 3 x vDisk (vmdk) each on a separate data store. (1, 2, 3 Datastore data store data store)

    When you take a snapshot, the file of * instant _00000001.vmdk for all 3 vDisks, will be created on the data store that contains the virtual machine configuration files.

    Say in this case, the configuration of the VM is the data store 1, wink all vdisks will write to the data store 1. When you delete the snapshot, the changes will be Committee of the 1st store of data for the respective data storages.

    Hope this is helpful and not too complicated

  • Deleted photos appear not to be freeing up hard drive space

    I just deleted a ton of photos of Photos to free up space on my hard drive, but nothing seemed to change - why is - this?

    Thank you

    Hello mknj,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how it is important to keep your Mac organized and your free storage space, and I want to help him. Just to be sure, after you remove the photos in question, did you also remove them from the "Recently deleted" album in the Photos app? This is like the trash on your mac but specific photos, giving you an extra chance to save your photos that you not wanted to delete. Until that they are excluded from this album space on your Mac will remain full.

    To find this Album open the Photos app and click 'Albums' tab on top and click to open it. To empty this album 'Delete All' at the top click or select the photos you want to delete and click Delete.

    If you have already done so, try restarting your computer and again controlled storage. Let us know if you have any other problem, and the whole community will be there to help.

    Best regards.
