Remove and turn hard drive

Hello

I have a 2 TB drive Fusion on my iMac 5 k end of 2015.

I would check how noisy is my hard drive. To do this, I have reinstalled OSX on my SSD external drive and restart her iMac. After that I freely disassembled Fusion of the system drive.

Question is: the unmount command does in practice on the mechanical hard drive?

The drive disappears from the system, but what else? Is it still mechanically spinning / running and generating sounds while?

Disassembly of a mechanical drive can not off power to the drive, but the reader can stop spinning after a period of time depending on the firmware of the player. If the Player stops turning then after a minute or two if you mount the drive then there usually a few seconds before the reader appears due to the rotation upward of late.

    I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says that I have to 'activate' and when I try, I get a weird response and they all but hang up on me.  I used this drive for many years, even the screen shows a picture of my table with flowers in a vase.  What is going on?  How can I get this problem?

    Your hard drive, installed on a computer with Windows XP was preinstalled by the computer manufacturer? If this is the case, then you have a "OEM version" of Windows which is linked to the computer first it is installed on and cannot be moved or reinstalled on another computer.

    If however you have a "Commercial" of XP version that you bought in a store, then you should be able to activate by phone, be aware that move the drive from one computer to another is more often go to work and XP may have problems (device drivers and other issues). The best solution is a clean installation (after you back up your data files).

  • Windows XP Pro do not validate after the removal of the hard drive

    In an older machine, I have a copy of Windows XP Pro, it is validated and worked perfectly fine, until I removed a dying hard drive of the machine, then it is suddenly telling me that the OS is not genuine. I can't get to turn on again in a way that I can think of, and I don't see anything immediately above that might interfere with the activation. I would really not like to re - install the operating system, anyway I can activate it again without doing so would be greatly appreciated.

  • Satellite A100 - question on the removal of the HARD drive

    Hi all

    I opened the back panel and have Visual access to the hard drive. It is placed in a kind of rubber cradle / cage. Please advise on how to remove the hard drive and replace it with a new one.

    I need to do this is because I am faced with recurring problems of bad sector and now XP will not boot. So I intend to install a new 160 GB HARD drive and use the recovery disc.

    Also, I enclose the picture of the HARD drive in the laptop when the case was opened.

    [http://img116.imageshack.us/my.php?image=toshibahddrd3.jpg]

    Looking forward to your prompt response.

    Thanks in advance.

    Move the HARD drive to the left and the HARD drive will be disconnected. Place it on a flat surface like desktop and remove the two plastic covers by moving them to the left or the right.
    All that s!

  • Deletion of images of the catalogue and the hard drive during a Collection.

    I have problems with deleting images in the catalog and hard at the same time in a Collection and I would like some advice on the best way to do it.

    It seems that there is no problem of deletion of images in folder mode - this is mostly what I do - but quite often, I'll see the images after that that they were put in a Collection.  Then I'll find one I want to remove from the Collection, the catalog and the hard drive and I have trouble identifying the means to do so.

    I can remove it from the Collection, but then I have to find the image in the folder or use the option all of the photographs of the find.

    So, I tried to use the flag rejected, but it's only local to the Collection - in other words if you find the folder or use all photographs and filter for rejected it does not show.

    The only thing that seems to work, so far, is to give a colored flag and then go to all the pictures and the filter on the color.  It seems long-term for me, then, are there other ways that I'm missing.

  • Portege M300: Can I use a faster and bigger HARD drive

    Morning,

    is it possible to have a faster and bigger hard drive? Maybe something 7200 rpm or more?

    A 30GB / 40 GB/60 GB/80 GB/100 GB hard with 4200 and 5400 RPM 2.5-inch drives are supported.

    These hard drives, you can get anywhere.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA: can I use faster and bigger HARD drive?

    So this may seem like a stupid question, but if I intend to spend of the installed 160 GB 5400 RPM HDD of the Satellite Pro A300 1EA to a 7200 RPM drive HARD (do not know the ability yet) and I was wondering how to make recovery disks (downgrade from Vista professional and XP Professional) coming with the work of the laptop with the HARD disk that does not part of factory as drives for my understanding restore the system...

    The size of the drive HARD replacement has something to do with the thing?
    If the replacement HARD drive is also 160 GB system see the difference? And even if it was smaller or larger the system see the difference?

    I have not even bought the laptop but will soon and it is a little urgent.

    Computer thanks Fellows ahead! :)

    * Oh... It seems that this question has already been answered... a little research has ever killed forum person huh... but if someone has vital information about the issue... Please let me know! :)*

    Hello

    I think that he should t be a problem with an upgrade to a faster and bigger HARD drive.
    But before you switch the HARD disk, you must create the Toshiba Recovery DVD using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
    After the recovery disk has been created, you can move the hard drives.

    Best regards

  • Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!

    Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!  Gee, who could have possibly guessed that would happen?  I tried all kinds of silly workarounds, I found on the internet, but still it will not register the stack of DVDs and other discs I have.

    If you're like me and upgraded your iMac that came with a cd/dvd drive internal... so he has to come out to give way to the fusion or the SSD drive, do NOT buy the apple superdrive.  It will work with your computer!

    Think I'll get a laptop samsung...

    Ironic, isn't it? Own Apple SuperDrive will not work with Apple computers. Shame you don't check here first that we would have warned you. Return Apple overpriced and buy a nice third-party player for a third of the price. I love the LG units. You can consider a loading plate because they are more reliable, and you can use these pesky disc when you get one.
