Removing a hard drive of matrix Raid 5

• Conclusion removed the hard drive

  Our "old" laptop teacher at work will be used by students this year so our IT team has removed all hard drives.  Unfortunately, one of our teachers made a mistake on the external hard drive backup and lost his papers. The info was accidentally recorded on the hard drive... not the external drive. All hard drives (hundreds and hundreds) are now randomly laying in boxes.

  We can find the laptop that was hers, but is it possible to find the serial number for the hard drive that had been in it? Are the serial numbers for the laptop in any way linked to the serial number on the hard drive? Just try to find every way possible to help him.

  Not sure about the BONE... probably the latest or next to last.

  Thank you!

  There is no correlation between the installed hard drive and MacBooks in which they have been installed. Then the next number in the series could even have another brand of disc.

  Frankly, I can't remove these drives. A single pass of erasure with writing zeros would be crushed everything (but it takes all afternoon). Crushed once sufficient for everything but nuclear secrets.

• If I remove the hard drive from my Mac book will find my Mac still works

  One of my buddies and ME are supporting it because im trying to say that if you remove the hard drive of a Macbook, find my Mac no longer works, even if you get a new hard drive and connect it to the Internet. He said, that it only stops working if it is not connected to the internet, and I know it's true, but I want to know if my theory is correct,

  If you remove the HD there is nothing to identify your Mac then FindMyMac.

  To use FindMyMac the Mac must be connected to the internet and FindMyMac must be enabled in system preferences > iCloud. This requires Mac be signed in iCloud.

• What is the largest hard drive or the RAID supported by El Capitan and Yosemite?

  What is the largest hard drive or the RAID supported by El Capitan and Yosemite?  Also, WHERE can I find this specification?  Drobo claims that 16 TB is the largest external RAID supported and I do not.

  FYI............ 2 UPDATES since I posted this question:

  "1. Drobo has updated their FIRMWARE to allow now to 'beyond' 64 power to RAID".  Thus, their original 16 TB limit has now been replaced by their new limit of 64 to.  Also note that when you use a Drobo, Apple Mac OS does correctly shows space 'Drive' and the 'free space', if the Drobo 16TB exceeds the size; but the Application DashBoard of Drobo displays the correct numbers.  For example, my Drobo 5 d contains 5, 8 TB disks, for a total size beyond 40 to RAID (theoretically, since most of us should know, now, that the ACTUAL SIZE IS SLIGHTLY SMALLER than THE THEORETICAL SIZE).  AVAILABLE FOR USE ACTUAL SIZE IS ONLY 28.9 TB.  Thus, 40-28, 9 = 11.1 TB gets used in place for the PROTECTION of RAID beyond and the difference between REAL SPACE and SPACE THEORY.  It IS NORMAL because any RAID 5 device always uses about 1 size of hard drive for its Protection.  So, knowing this, the DeskTop icon showing 28.9 TB disk space and free space as everything that is not yet used.  However, instead, the Mac OS shows 70,37 TB disk space and free space like 68,37 TB, which are both incorrect.  Although I'd love it if Mac OS has been magically increase my disk space, in fact, these two numbers are false.  Drobo knows this, and Apple has not, in my discussions with both.  So I hope, between the two companies, that this problem can be corrected.

  2. after many hours on the phone with Apple Support, through no less than 6 people including 2 senior advisers, NONE OF THEM COULD ANSWER MY QUESTION ON CE WHO IS MAXIMUM ALLOWED HARD DRIVE or RAID SPACE AUTHORIZED BY Yosemite and El Capitan.  For me, THIS IMPORTANT FACT SHOULD SIMPLY BE LISTED IN THE OS SPECIFICATION TECHNIQUE, it's quick and easy to read on the Support Site.  But Apple is the new bureaucracy, they are, I don't see what is happening any time soon.  So, be aware that, for now, HE IS No. LIMIT ON SIZE, as an Apple adviser said; but could not confirm in writing; and, IT IS AN INCORRECT DISPLAY SIZE AND FREE SPACE, if your drive is greater than an unknown 16 + TB in size.  Note that I have 3 other RAIDs that are properly in place showing that 9 TB, TB 12 and 18 to size; but I do not know how the SIZE IS IMPORTANT to ensure that the operating system display it correctly, except for my Drobo TB 40.  So, the bottom line, somewhere between to 18 and 40 to is where he goes wrong, in its display of sizes.

• Satellite Pro P300 - remove the HARD drive to make a backup?

  My P300 went to my local store to repair for a network card problem. I thought it was just a software problem or driver, so I wasn't worried that my machine is still under warranty. After investigation, they stated that they could not resolve the issue, so would be to reformat and reinstall the OS, they thought they should solve the problem.

  To my horror, I found that they had broken the seals of guarantee and open to the top of the machine. They claimed the only way to save the P300 before reformat it, is to remove the HARD drive!
  Is this true?
  (It turns out that a broken chip is to blame, but because they violated the warranty, Toshiba will not touch!)

  Can anyone say about this the removal of HD to support it please?

  Hey,.

  Normally it of not necessary to restore the factory settings with to remove the HARD drive but don t you worry about this. The laptop can still be opened from a service provider authorized without losing the warranty.

  I also put t know why they did, perhaps they have checked the material. It would be possible because they have professional diagnostic tools.

  But interesting to know whether or not your problem is now resolved?

  Thanks for the help.

  The HARD drive slot is placed at the bottom of the unit. You don't have to remove the screw holding the cover of the slot. Then, you can simply remove the HARD drive.

• Satellite P10 804: how to remove the HARD drive?

  I would like to remove the internal hard disk of 60 GB of my satellite P10 804 and replace it with a bigger drive, but cannot find a way to enter in the case of removing the HARD drive.

  Does anyone have the details on how to do?

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the HARD drive must be placed under the optical dirve.
  To remove the HARD drive, first remove the battery and the optical drive, and then follow the steps below:

  1. remove the four black screws that anchor the shield of aluminum covering the HARD drive and pull it out.
  2. gently pull on the HARD drive the front panel of the computer to disconnect the system board, then pull it out.
  3. remove the four silver screws that attach the HARD drive to the HARD disk case.

  But be careful. If you have no experience ask someone with more experience in these replacements.

• Need help to remove the hard drive from a Satellite Pro M10

  Hi, a good will would point me in the right direction. I am trying to remove the HD from a satellite pro M10.
  I discovered the net without success.

  A diagram with being usefully etc.

  kind regards J

  Hello

  I can't give you a diagram or something, but I can give an indication to take a look on the front left side of your machine. On this corner of the left side under the volume control is a small blanket where the HARD drive is in. You need only to unscrew the 2 screws that are accessible when you turn on your machine and and look at the bottom of your machine. Do you know what I mean?

  When you remove these 2 screws, you need to remove the HARD drive by taking some screwdriver flat-blade and paste between the disc cover and HARD case. Then carefully remove the cover of the HARD drive and you can recover the HARD drive with the cover and exchange it.

  Voila, your hard drive West. It s is not difficult at all.

  But if you still have some questions then request.

  Anyone know where I can get instructions on where it is located?

  I looked at the 'User Guide' section of the Web site, but it does not contain the information.

  At the moment the machine is blue Windows to load testing.

  In my opinion, we must open Notepad.
  In this case, it of necessary to carefully remove the covers, the keyboard and the screws that put him at the bottom of the unit.
  Please Note: you will lose the warranty if you open Notepad.
  But if your warranty is still valid, you should ask the ASP for the instruction or detailed information.
