Re: Store Alu 2.5 "USB 500 Gb HDD no longer moves up not - LED is red

My HARD drive is no longer recognized. I tried on another computer, but the behavior is always the same.
After connecting with one or two connector, light on the case will immediately red instead of blue a rest like this.
Nothing happens more.

What can I do?

Hmm... for me, this looks like dead HARD disk.
What do you think?

In this case, you could leave this HARD and buy a new
Of course, it's the worst case scenario, and I assume that you will not be able to retrieve the data stored on this HARD drive :(

  • New external USB 500 GB Portable Hard Drive appearing is not in Windows Vista

    I connected a new 500G portable hard drive to a front USB port on my HP PC (with an AMD Phenom X 4 image processor), under Windows Vista Home Premium. Windows presented a pop saying that the driver has been installed, then he said: USB device installed. The software of the device has been installed successfully and is ready for use.

    However when I looked for the drive in Windows Explorer it wasn't there. I read in this forum, and using the information that I realized that I accessed the computer on my PC management - up it only shows C: drive and D: drive image factory, but below that, when disk 0 is assigned to the C: and D: drives it shows disk 1, unknown, uninitialized. Assuming that it is the car in question, I tried to initialize the disk, but then the error FUNCTION INCORRECTE.

    I don't know what to do at this point. If the player has not been assigned a letter, there seems to be no way to transfer or partition.

    A new drive must be formatted. That is why it is sjowing up as disc 1, unknown, uninitialized.

  • StorE Alu2: two ports USB ports or not?

    Hi all

    I can't understand that the series of external hard drive StorE Alu2 takes 2 USB ports, to work or not.
    There are two exams in the Amazon saying it does:
    (OLE http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00472861W/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_g147_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1 & pf_rd_s = center-2 & pf_rd_r = 0VS71D4V6ZDJWW3JSKA6 & pf_rd_t = 101 & pf_rd_p = 467128533 & pf_rd_i = 468294),

    but there is no confirmation of nowhere elsewhere.
    Even the manual States produced with all the letters that he only use a single USB port
    (http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/eu/store-external-hard-drives/alu-2-25/).

    Anyone able to help?

    Thank you!

    Page Multimedia Toshiba says it supports a high speed USB 2.0 ports and you can see from the photos on this page.

    > I can't understand that the series of external hard drive StorE Alu2 takes 2 USB ports, to work or not.

    I think it depends on the USB ports on the computer/laptop.
    The common standard USB should provide 500mA but this may be different and in this case the USB hard drives would not get enough power to operate correctly. In this case, you need a Y USB cable to connect an external USB HDD to two USB ports.

    Is it possible that I can use to get back them?

    Hello moeketsisehloho,

    It is not possible to record with the TV store.
    There are 4 files (music, Photos, videos, Toshiba) default settings.
    If you plug the TV StorE on your computer and you can´t see these files, I think you have removed the.
    That you have set the TV to the default store or create this 4 files manually.
    I suggest to format the TV store front. The way to do it, you can find in the manual on page 18.
    Then you should be able to copy the files to the TV store.
    If you can´t see the menu, if the TV store is connected by HDMI to the TV, I think you need to bring the TV StorE to a partner of Service allowed next to you.

    Best regards

    Hello

    Have you tried to plug the drive external DRIVE on another computer?

    I found this FAQ from Toshiba on the Toshiba Stor.E Alu (3.5 "- 1 TB - USB 3.0")
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/SPD4603LW0000R01.htm

    It is said that the AC adapter or the AC adapter cable may be broken
    But from my point of few, the HARD Drive LED (indicator) show the status of the HARD drive.
    The HARD disk is turned on and that for this purpose, the power seems to be correctly provided on the HARD drive.

    This means that the cable and the AC adapter should be OK.
    I think that in your case the HARD disk (inside) may be broken.

  • STORE ALU 3.5 "light blue showing but not connected.

    I have a HDD external Toshiba Store Alu. I have problems to connect to my computer recently. It was working fine until 2 days ago but now all I have is light blue, but I hear that the drive does not work. The last computer I logged in, I had a flashing blue & red light which I know means it is not getting enough power - since then, it does not work on any computer.

    Any ideas? If the disc is defective, I can get the recovered data?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I m not owner of this external HARD disk but it sounds a bit like a hardware malfunction.
    Maybe the HARD disk has crashed in such a case, you would lose data

    It s a 3.5 HDD right?
    Well, perhaps you could remove this disk of the case and could connect to a HARD drive controller internal office PC.
    You can check if the BIOS recognizes the HARD drive and internal hard drive

    But if the BIOS would not recognize the HARD drive then it would mean that the HARD drive is dead!

  • Store alu 1 TB - 8.3 filenames

    OS: Windows Vista Home Premium SP2
    PC: Laptop HP 6735 s

    Yesterday I finally have unboxed my StorE alu 1 TB and started to copy files from my portable 250 GB Medion drive-and-Go for it.

    Some files and folders have now received the old as 8.3 file names "blahbl ~ 1.zip".

    The Toshiba and are both the Medion formatted FAT32 (the Toshiba out of the box).

    Has anyone encountered this before and figured out how to fix it?

    Something to do with the SATA drive?

    Also, I noticed that some files and folders that are copied in the store will not copy to the Medion or my laptop - even when I try to copy one at a time.

    UH... help?

    > Both the Toshiba and the Medion that are formatted FAT32 (the Toshiba out of the box).
    > Has anyone encountered this before and figured out how to fix it?

    Hmm, as far as I know you could disable the creation of 8.3 name on NTFS partitions:

    Type of RACE: * fsutil.exe behavior set disable8dot3 1 *.

    But I don't know if this will be functions with Fat32 Mr. in the worst case, you will need to change the NTFS file system

  • External drive USB 500 GB PX1394E burp and more

    Since yesterday, my external 500 GB Toshiba USB drive burp more.
    The LED becomes red instead of blue when I turn it on. Needless to say that my entire CD collection is on it, so it is quite a mess.

    What are my options now?

    I bought the external drive in Germany, a little less than a year ago, model Toshiba PX1394E - 3 50.
    Stupidly, I can't find the receipt anymore, so it won't help if I just bring it back to the shop.

    Where Toshiba can I apply for?

    How can I open the case to see if the drive is broken, or just the USB interface?
    The enclosure has two small screws, but by unscrewing seems to have no effect, it seems that they are just to fix a foot plate support.

    Help, please! It is a nighmare!

    Thank you kind
    Ulf

    > How can I open the case to see if the drive is broken, or just the USB interface?
    Don t what a controller can be broken. If something is broken, then this might be just the HARD drive.

    If the HARD drive burp more then the hardware failure is possible and only a replacement can help you. Stupidly that you can't find the verification of sales because it is necessary to get a replacement under warranty

One day I plugged the external hard drive to my laptop and do a backup of file inside and forgetfully system restore left the hard drive and my computer laptop battery for watch a movie outdoors.

  • Exchanging the 500 GB HDD with a SSD 128 GB on a fancy m6 1101-so

    Hello

    I was trying to replace/change the 500 GB HDD with a 120 GB SSD installed on this laptop. My plan was to use the SSD as boot drive and the HARD 'normal' storage disk in a cradle of HARD drive in the optical drive Bay. But my problem is that during the backup of the disc at first, I did install, the installation leaves boot loop once the installation is finished and he wants to start windows for the first time.

    All those who know what is my problem? At the beginning I had problems with even getting to the start screen, but I solved it with the boot and installation of windows with the BIOS in legacy mode.

    Hope that there is a magician who could help me.

    You cannot use recovery discs that you made from 500 GB HARD drive to restore a 120 GB drive in most cases.

    You can clone the SSD HARD drive. (Note: total capacity used on the HARD disk must be less than the total size of SSD for cloning to work). Use Macrium reflect free cloning tool & SATA Adapter USB to connect the SSD for laptop by USB.
