• large external hard drive for editing fcpx

  Hi, a question of two parts:

  1. I was wondering how people manage their media: is it recommended to store the middle on an external hard drive and the reference to it? Or are the libraries & projects also stored on an external drive?

  2. I have about 4 TB of video and want to buy a large external hard drive that is fast enough for 4 k video editing (with proxy or optimized media, single stream, nothing too fancy etc.). I just bought the new iMac 5 k which has connections thunderbolt.

  I read a lot about love at first sight vs. speed USB3, disk hard drive gears, RAIDs etc but am not the wisest. I don't want to it is an exaggeration either.

  It would be good enough: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BBZ4Q0C/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8 & psc = 1 & smid = A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

  Or is it better to use for backup and should I go for the version of TB: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FIYJ7LG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8 & psc = 1 & smid = A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

  Or a USB3 would be pretty quick with a double disc is RAID0? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Book-Desktop-External-Drive-WDBLWE0080JCH-EESN/dp/B00L9 0DX04/ref = pd_sim_147_4? ie = UTF8 & PSC = 1 & refRID = YFMN75KFN652T20XB40B

  Price differences are pretty extreme and I know too how much of a real difference it would make to my editing.

  I have trouble with my 2010 macbook pro and a portable external hard drive 5400 RPM so would avoid this situation.

  Thanks in advance!

  1 - Yes, always put libraries and media on a second fast drive.  Video/audio "data streaming" can bog down the stream of data required by the operating system and the app themselves.  There is limited bandwidth between the CPU and hard drives, as your Internet connection.

  RIAD 0 is quite obsolete, stay away from him.  USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt are good enough for 4K editing.  RAID is faster than the single SSD (same).  Spins disks should always be 7200 RPM, even the system drive.  5400 is far too slow.  If you go with RAID, get a 4th unit of Bay, with 7200 RPM drives in a RAID 5 configuration.  MacSales.com has excellent products.  As promises (their RAIDS of you bolt P2 are the fastest on the market) and other well known brands.  I was never a fan of the product line of My Book.

• Larger and faster hard drive model T61 6458-CTO

  6i would like to know which is the hard drive bigger and faster that I can buy for a T61 (6458-CTO).

  It has a 80 GB hard drive, 5400 RPM and SATA interface (1.5 Gb/s).

  Can I buy a SATA II (3 Gb/s, 500 GB and 7200 RPM) for this computer?

  Thank you.

  Jon

  > Buy a SATA II (3 Gb/s and 500 GB 7200 RPM) for this computer?

  Yes, you can, however, due to limitations in the T61, there only a SATA I interface. This isn't really a problem because the drive itself is unable to transfer data at the maximum speed of the interface.

• Aspire 5755G - 9417 larger capacity hard drive

  Aspire 5755G - 9417 current (original) HD is 1 TB. I'm looking to replace it with a larger. Can I use one to 1.5 or 2 TB of HARD drive in this unit or is there a restriction on the ability? Also, the initial height of the disc is 12.5 mm. It seems that I can use a 9.5 mm in replacement player and the caddy it will stop moving. Is this correct? The caddy will hold firmly in the correct position or will I have to use something to fill the vacuum and maintain the stability of the HD? THX.

  Other information in the case, it is useful:
  OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
  first 10 characters of SN: LXRQ002092

  For a system bios inherited like yours, you should be OK with up to a 2 TB MBR partitioned drive. You can exceed the 2 TB with a GUID partitioned drive but cannot boot from it.

• "Re: Toshiba M10: replacement 7 k 200 with Advanced Format HARD drive" 7 K 750 HDD

  Can we see problems with the replacement of the original Hitachi TravelStar 7 K 200 (200 GB) HDD, that went into my two year old Toshiba Tecra M10 - 11 X, with a so-called 'Advanced Format' 7 K 750 (750 GB or maybe 640 GB) hard drive?

  Like the original, I want to dual-boot the new disk using three partitions:
  * Windows 7 32-bit
  * Data
  * Windows XP
  and would probably clone one disk to another (by increasing the size of the partition!) with the v5 of Macrium Reflect.

  I read up on top of the TravelStar 7 K 750 form, the alignment tool from Hitachi, Microsoft KnowledgeBase article 982018 "an update that improves the compatibility of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 with the Advanced Format drives is available" Bit-tech http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/sto...t-hard-disks/1and so forth, but wonder if anyone has actually replaced the HDD with all original Advanced Format drives and could therefore have a certain experience to share?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  "I put t have experience using this advanced Format ' 7 K 750 HARD drive but in my opinion he should not a problem using this HARD drive.
  The laptop supports the SATA interface and if this HARD drive would also support the SATA controller, the HARD drive should be recognized too

  But of course, it is my personal opinion...

• How can I configure my H8-1240 to use a large secondary hard drive

  I installed a Western Digital 3TO (WD30EZRX) hard drive as a secondary drive.  My bios recognizes the drive as being 3 TB.  I used the Windows 7 computer management tool to manage and format the drive, but it won't allow me to use 2 TB of the car and leaves 746,52 GB unallocated.  How to access unallocated space?

  The drive is functional, but I want to access all of the available space.  I tried to "Extend Volume", but this option is grayed out in the menu.  I searched the forum, HP, Google, Gigabyte and Western Digital to the site but have not found the answer.

  Computer: H8-1240

  Motherboard: M3970BM (printed on the card), seems to be made by Gigabyte

  BIOS: An2_705.rom v7.05

  On my system (see above), I found my answer.

  I had to just go into my disk management and delete all partitions of my 3 TB drive.  Once all the unallocated space, I could then right click on the drive and choose "convert to GPT disk.  It is!  Now my secondary drive shows 2794,39 GB free.  Nice.

• T420 replacement of the original by a SSD hard drive

  Hello world

  In order to increase the speed of my laptop (Lenovo T420), I would like to replace current hard by here a SSD (link).

  I already made some changes on the desktop, but never on laptop.

  Could someone let me know if it is possible, about the size of the hard disk (2.5 inch 100 X 69,85 X 6.8 (mm) - form factor) connectors (SATA) or other points that I should care?

  Thank you

  Good day.

  The series Samsung EVO will agree and will work. Everyone has an opinion about the brands that they like and dislike. Personally, I've never had a problem with any SSD Samsung, although I had a few problems with some of their older readers focused on the plateau. Others have problems with other brands. I will say that SSDs, in general, don't not differently from the readers focused on the plateau. Platinum discs usually (not always) break down slowly so you can get most of your data. SSD die suddenly and completely. Backups are necessary. I tend to keep operating systems (which can be recreated) on the SSD and try to keep my data on traditional disks. If you don't have a WWAN card, think about getting a disk for your OS mSATA and keeping your old drive for data

• Can I use a faster HARD drive on my Satellite P10?

  Hello

  Have a Satellite P10 can replace 4200 drive with 5400 speed without fear more of heating or other problems?

  Hello

  Today, I had a similar ad: D, so I can really answer you: Yes because there is no huge difference if you use a player of 4200, 5400 or 7200 RPM.

  The heat is not SO significantly that the machine could be damaged. Don t worry and just install the drive you want to in your machine.
  BTW. : Make sure that the drive is compatible with your machine regarinding the chipset and so on. Sometimes there are readers who don t work generally well with some machines toshiba like seagate or western digital, but not all and not every machine ;)

• Dv6-7202se replacement HARD drive

  Hi, I want to buy a replacement for my DV6-7202se HARD drive. originally, I have a 1 TB running at 5400 RPM SATA HARD drive. I am running Windows 8.1.

  My laptop is now out of its original 1 year warranty.

  (1) is it possible for me to go to a larger, faster HARD drive?

  (2) my laptop was purchased in the UNITED Arab Emirates. Where can I find the replacement HARD drive here?

  (3) my current HARD drive has a number of specific product? The official site of HP can't give me that and continues to throw messages 'no information found.

  (4) where will I get the recovery disks to reinstall the operating system on it? He came originally with Windows 8, I upgraded to 8.1.

  Thank you!

  You can certainly get a faster drive, but I think that the biggest readers available now 1.5 TB laptop and they all work at 5400 RPM. Here is your Service Manual:

  Manual

  One option you have is to install an accelerator reader WSSD/mSATA cache to speed up the slower drive. The problem on your model, it is very difficult to get to the slot of the WSSD. It is not in the Bay of accessible customer service.

  To speed up the system even more, you can install an SSD expand instead of the ordinary reader, but the largest SSD drive is a 1 to.

  Where you can get all this material in the UAE, I have no idea. I guess you can get things shipped from Europe, Asia and the United States

  In regards to the operating system, unless it does not turn right you can clone (copy bit for little) the old drive and transfer the image to the new, or we can get you a link to download an image of disk for Windows 8, which can be installed on any hard drive. The License Code is embedded in the BIOS of your motherboard, so you just need to install it and Windows will activate automatically.

  Post back if one of these options looks interesting and we can assist in its application.

• Satellite P300 - upgrade to larger hard drives and 7200 RPM?

  I have a Satellite P300, model PSPCCA-01W073 (sold in Australia). Machine has two 320 GB of HARD drive. Yes, it's all up to 640 GB. I upgraded to Windows 7 OS and I have dual boot in to Linux Ubuntu.

  My job is editing/processing of multimedia files big and my hard drives are overexploited, so I now I am forced to exchange large files back and fourth with various USB hard drives. If I can replace the existing readers with much larger models, then I will go ahead and do it. .. But at this point, I'm out of my depth!

  I asked the support from Toshiba if P300 supports larger disks but they will not engage all the answers outside the original specifications. They suggest that I should try Toshiba users forum for more help.

  A kind person could tell me if it is possible to run drives 320 GB and the size. Also, I believe that the existing drives are 5400 RPM. My online store parts and pieces of local computer lists a choice between Hitachi, WD, Seagate and Samsung with sizes:

  (2.5 "/ 5400 RPM") 320 GB, 500 GB, 750 GB and 1 TB as well as sizes: (2.5 "/ 7200 rpm") 500 GB, 640 GB and 750 GB.

  So my second question; y at - it no advantage or disadvantage to the superior speed of 7200 RPM.

  TIA, your help should prevent to me yet an another expensive blunder.

  Hello

  Theoretically more big hard drives must be supported and should not be a big problem to use this HARD drive as the SATA controller is not limited to any size.

  Also the use of the faster HARD drive 7200 RPM should not affect the performance of the laptop even if this HARD drive faster produce more heat

  In my opinion you can upgrade to a larger and faster HARD drive
