Replacement of disks on Precision 390 - size limit?

Hello everyone, I have a Precision 390 with a pair of Sata drives of 160 GB installed in a Raid1 configuration for data redundancy.

I would like to install a larger capacity replacement discs.

My question is, is there a limit to the size of HDs can be installed for the RAID configuration and also will be SATA3 readers work ok even if the controller is to spec sooner? (i.e. readers default to a mode inherited from SATA1 or SATA2?)

I hope that someone has the answers for this.

Thank you very much

Chris.

Hi Chris,

Up to 2 TB hard drives will work without problem. 3 SATA disks should work, but my experience has shown that the "backward compatibility" is not always as compatible as it sounds. Yes, default readers to some SATA mode to your system. Honestly, however, it has no real performance difference for disks rotational between SATA 1, 2 or 3.

  • Machine virtual hard disk (virtual disk) of the upper size limit put into service

    Hi there, so I'm trying to create a hard drive or a virtual disk in a Virtual Machine in order to configure the virtual machine as a file server. The data store is a Promise VTrak M610P and I installed the vtrak as a type of VMFS5 5,46 TB of space (4 2 hard disks to each RAID 5). In the virtual machine, I added a hard drive and selected the store data vtrak and tried to set the provisioned to 5.46 TB size and type thick lazy disposition to zero, but I get an error of DiskCapControl with the range values. I changed the size set in service and 4 TB and he accepted the new hard drive. I can't find anything on the actual limit on the creation of hard disk in a virtual computer.


    I'm running a server Supermicro X7DAL-E with VMware ESXi 5.5 U2.

    Any ideas would be useful. Thank you.

    I forgot I asked a similar question on a different section of the forum (shame on me), but I found a solution. Please see the following post Re: SMB access using esxi host and manage with MS server 2008 storage

    Here's what I wrote on the link above:

    So it turns out that there seems to be something wrong with vClient when you add a hard disk (virtual disk) to a virtual machine of size greater than 4 TB. Article VMware KB: value of range error message when you add more than 4 TB capacity discs in vSphere Client describes this if you encounter this problem, add the hard drive via vSphere CLI, CLI power or vmkfstools. So this seems to be a known issue on vClient. What I ended up doing was using vClient, creation of hard disk, adding to the virtual machine (size of the hard drive is to 5.45) and when I would get the error message on the DiskCapControl out of reach, I would just click OK and then finalize the creation of the hard drive on the virtual machine. Once the process is complete, I selected the virtual machine and noticed that he indeed added a new HDD size 5.45 TB even if he's complained about it. I pulled to the top of the virtual machine with windows server 2008 R2 installed and was able to create a new disk under windows and set it up as a shared drive on the network. Looks like vClient must be updated by VMware and correct this bug, if it's a bug that I think. Thank you for the help vervoort!

  • For MP3 file size limit?

    I have the Sansa Fuze 8 GB with 16 GB Sandisk microSD, firmware version v02.01.17A card.
    Internal memory has 48.1 MB free external card has 4.72 GB free.
    3419 mp3 files, 281 records
     
    I record internet radio directly to MP3 (mp3directcut) for my weekend road trip and usually have a file size of 700 MB (8-10 hours of audio). I had a problem with VBR in that the "rocket" wouldn't report the length correctly, nor fast towards the before or rewind properly.
     
    The files themselves are playing very well, but try to fast forward the commercials would never work properly. Sometimes she would fast 30 seconds, then I would press fast forward but it would in fact 5 minutes earlier. I know it's a problem with VBR then I was recording with CBR. Are all my songs mp3 VBR however and they work very well in all respects.
     
    Recording to the CBR presented a new problem, the player will just lock up and stay insensitive. This occurred after 90 minutes of reading, but as soon as 10 minutes. The "rocket" can cut or just hang. In both cases, it won't power back upward. I finally found a way to place it again by connecting to the PC (the player has no connect or lights in itself), press for 30 seconds, release taken, then lights up normally.
     
    Is there a size limit to the actual file on the "rocket" or anyone has any ideas on how to play these big mp3 files? Did anyone tried larger files with Ogg or WMA?

    You must have 90 free MB on memory on your rocket to make it work properly!  Having said that here will tell you to leave 200 MB free on the internal memory precisely for this reason...  George

  • Size limit of the mailbox Surface RT for Windows?

    Is there a size limit of the mailbox for the mail application that comes with the Windows Surface of RT?  I want to put the ' email new download ' affecting 'anytime' but my Office 365 mailboxes is 4 GB and feared this may interrupt the Windows RT mailbox.

    Hello APLevitt,

    Thank you for the question!

    I'm sorry to know that have problems you with Windows mail app. As I understand it, you need to know what is the size limit of the mailbox.

    There is no size limit for the mail application, the size depends on the availability of hard disk space. The limit also applies with regard to the e-mail services provider, in your case its office 365 with 4 GB of space. If space on the server is full the mail app will inevitably stop receive emails too.

    Answer to us if you are experiencing problems with the mail application or any other problem of Windows, and I'd be happy to help you again and try to correct the problem as soon as possible.

    Good day!

    Hope this information helps.

  • Audio decreases with the size limit of the file 2 gig between clips

    Filming with a Sony HXR-NX5U, the camera creates a 2 gig file size limit then import the clips into Premiere Pro CS6. There are a few frames between clips where the audio falls and he is also a very slight decline in s in the video, this happens only between clips longer. I saw some references to this in the forum earlier but no answer. Any indeas!

    Simple fix - copy of any content from SD card to the new folder on the hard disk, all the files intact. Then first, import using "Media Browser" rather than "file > import". With the media browser, split clips will be correctly handled, import as a single clip, long seedless.

    Thank you

    I recently acquired my nieces computer Dell Precision 390 and was trying to upgrade to Windows 7. When I opened upward, I noticed that the pin of the Bios was only placed on one of the pins instead of two of them as shown in the maintenance manual.

    After the replacement of the Bios pin on the appropriate setting, the computer will not start and has no effect when you press the Start button.

    I replaced the pin of the Bios to the place where I found it originally, and the end started computer. What gives here? Why didn't he start if I place the PIN Bios exactly where it is supposed to be?

    Does anyone have answers or suggestions? Thank you!

    By rider:

    The computer must be disconnected from the power outlet to clear the CMOS setting.

    Remove the cover from the computer.
    Locate the RTCRST jumper on the system board.
    Remove the CAP from the single-axis and onto the two pins and wait 3-5 seconds.
    Replace the cap on the single PIN.
    Replace the computer cover.

    Hello

    You can run a test on your hard drive to make sure if its in a State of operation or do not use the link below

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00439024

    If the above test fails, you will need to replace the hard drive. You can buy the hard drive by going to the HP service center or any place where you want. To reinstall the operating system, you will need to buy the recovery disk set by calling HP techinical support.

    I'm sure that my hard drive has become bad, other messages that I read.

    I don't have any data out of this device.  In fact, I was about to start deleting old data so I could give this device to a family in need.  Went to start the computer to start this process.  However, when I went to do this, he went to BSOD.  Messed with it a bit, then I got BSOD.  I have fillany calculate to run the test and got the 10008 # replace 1 hard disk error.

    As always, I want to give to this family that laptop, my question is: where I could buy a cheap replacement hard drive.  Is it difficult to do? And I don't think I have a back up / but on the operating system installation disk.  I have to do to get us to open and it would be affordable.

    I'm totally willing to put in the work to get to the top and go, but was woundering if anyone would be willing to give me some instructions on how to do it.

    Thank you 1 million for all advice and assistance.

    Hello

    Regarding the reinstallation of the operating system on the new drive HARD, here are two options.

    1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the Disk Image correct ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

    You try to send a 42 MB file, your server only allows you to send 31 megabytes and beneficiaries are limited to 10 megabytes.  Try using Irfanview (www.irfanview.com - free) and you can resize them and save as jpg files and they will be 100 X smaller.  Otherwise, send them 1 by 1.

    To resize them you can specify an image to about 640 x 480 pixels (or the beach), and that will keep the size appropriate for the email.

    We have a lying here Q6600 processor, and an old Pentium D 830 dual core CPU, but it's be better performer than one heart P4.

    Are the same motherboards in these two 390 s? I think that our E6300 could be improved to a Q6600, but the 390 with the P4, I'm not sure. They are all two socket 775. We already have the necessary correct heatpipe radiator for more hot processors.

    I have a Dell Precision 390 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit loaded just fine and it is running.

    It is strongly suggested that you do a clean install.

    So I wiped my HD (after backing up personal files). Don't come to format your drive, I mean totally wipe it.

    Automatic updates will install the drivers you need for any connected device or visit the manufacturers for your drivers.

    So in short, "Don't sweat it".
