Satellite P30 - is there room for two physical hard disks?

• Move the physical hard disks to new server

  First of all, before I have offend anyone wrong, yes there is a back-up. The "Extend reasons" why would I be willing to do this style of rough house upgrade are given below

  
  Simple explanation of the problem

  I have moved the physical hard disks (6 discs in the 0 + 1 array) in a HP Proliant ML350 G6 low for HP DL360 G5.

  The hard start and loading VMware 4.0 disks but no network connection. It shows the assigned static IP but no connection to the network.

  Also tested network cables. ;-) Firmware update on both boxes

  I have improved the VMware ESXi 4.0 to HP VMware hypervisor 5.1(1??) Edition, still no IP connection.

  Any Suggestions to get this NETWORK card IP address running?

  The drive in the array goes back to the system original and boots with work IP (and upgrading VMware 5.1 too)

  Extent of the reasons

  It is a small business with a single physical server, we borrowed a temporary server (used) from our supplier

  The current table (6 x 136 GB drives 0 + 1 array) has 408 GB of usable space. The person who made the initial VMware/OS load charge did not increase the block size for the Server Windows Small Business 2008 has a maximum of 320 GB volume

  Which is now max out.

  The goal is to have the production server upgraded to (8 x 450 GB drives 0 + 1 array) to 1.8 TB of usable space. Ideally the SBS 2008 will be migrated from the temporary server on the production server with sizes of block appropriate for larger volumes. The intensity of the current SBS has VMware unrelated corruption that would also give reason why we do not want the original charge on the new drives in the production box.

  It is also an Exchange Server which is critical for the company, I can't bring down the server for more information, then 1 hour without impact 7 x 24.

  The Back-up exists but isn't something suitable like a Veeam but is Microsoft Backup to disk iSCSI

  Hi, what I would say to access this server esxi through DCUI and access network configuration. If you can't see the network cards then you can also assign IP address from there for the management and you can also select NIC, you want only for management purposes.

  Thank you

• Satellite A210-19Z - BIOS does not find my HARD disk

  My HARD drive crashed so I bought a new and now my BIOS can not find it, and when I try to install XP, it says that it cannot find any hard disk.
  What should do? The new HARD drive is a Samsung SATA 2.5 "artno:HM121HI...

  Please help me... I'm going crazy...

  Thank you!

  Hello

  The BIOS should recognize the new HARD disc without any installed SATA drivers!
  The SATA drivers are needed only for Windows OS!

  Please check the position of the jumper on the HARD drive. Usually, these riders are avaialbel for 3.5 HARD disk but some 2.5 drives hard also supports a rider where the master/slave/c-salt settings could be changed

• Satellite P30: When the drivers for Windows Vista will be available

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P30, who is quite capable of supporting Windows Vista and I installed it. Now, my problem is that I keep having problems with my graphics card, and Toshiba has not yet published any drivers.

  When should I expect any solution for my problem?

  Thanks for your time,
  Nuno Ramiro

  Hello

  I am afraid I have some bad news for you.
  I found this link which was published a long time here in the forum.

  It seems that it is an official list of the models of Toshiba laptops that support Microsoft Windows Vista drivers:
  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7201SK002HR01.htm

  It seems that your laptop is not listed there. It seems therefore that the Vista drivers are not available for the P30 :(

  Try to google for the graphics drivers for Vista. Maybe you'll find something on omegadrivers.net or driverheaven.net

  Good luck

  I don't think that. Intel abandoned cards Robson earlier this year due to the absence of performance benefits.

• Using BCD for dual boot Windows 7 and Linux on two separate hard disks

  I scoured Internet for weeks and weeks trying to answer this question with still no success whatsoever.

  What I want to know is:

  Is it possible to use the BCD to boot Windows 7 and Linux, with Windows 7 installed on the hard drive of 1 and Linux installed on the hard disk of 2?  If so, how do you prepare in advance Linux, IE Grub must be on the partition root of Linux or should it be on the second hard disk MBR and what are the bcdedit commands necessary to add an entry for Linux for the start menu in Windows 7?

  Could be read more the real problem before burn.

  Someone wants to BCD of Windows to load * since a brooch * for the ACB or MBR on the operating system on the other drive.

  Unless there is a setting BCD undoc, it cannot manage other partitions on the same physical axis starting it is on.

• Connect physical hard disks to the virtual machine (and leave the data intact)

  Hello

  I'm looking to virtualize a SOHO headless server, that I use mainly for secure file storage.

  Currently, the system runs Linux installed on a small disc and has two drives 1.5 TB, used exclusively for data, in a cluster of ZFS mirroring. (I use the ZFS-fuse Linux-based application).

  I want virtualization for two reasons. One is to make administration easier and safer - avoid having to connect a keyboard and the physical monitor to the box from time to time. The other is that the machine is a bit more powerful to handle the load, and I'm hoping to make it work on other, more challenging tasks.

  Now, there is a catch. These discs are as highly important. I mean the data on them. What I need is to convert the current Linux system to a virtual machine, or re - install Linux on a virtual machine (don't like that), then connect the physical disks to the virtual machine as if they were actually connected.

  I certainly don't want to vmware touches those disks somehow.

  I've read the documentation, but I'm a noob when it comes to server virtualization and system engineering and don't quite understand if this is possible or not. These discs are not a SAN, they are physically connected to the server, I want to install vSphere on. (Of course, I'll log out when I run the setup of vSphere. But I need plug them again later, and they need to be sure that vmware will leave them alone and pass them to the virtual machine transparent.)

  Sigmoid wrote:

  Oh yes, the cluster mirrored ZFS. It is essentially a software RAID type thingie.

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/ZFS

  A material, or the point of view of virtualization, it appears two hard drives with a single huge partition on each that is not transparent to anyone, except the implementation of ZFS.

  OK, means that you can break the RAID, connect the drives to different host and configure RAID once again, right?

  Let's do it this way

  1. We will need a disc player more for VM, cause on flash, we install ESXi
  2. I will share ZFS :-), all you need to do with that before you install ESXi
  3. make the BACKUP!
  4. Disconnect the data host drives
  5. install ESXi 4.1 U1 free version on flash
  6. Download the site VMware vSphere client
  7. Connect the VM disk to ESXi
  8. customer help create the virtual machine and install the OS on it
  9. stop the virtual machine and esxi
  10. connect DATA drives to the ESXi host
  11. begin to ESXi
  12. See how to add RDM on youtube, after client use, change first hardware VM--> add a new hard disk--> choose Raw Device Mapping--> (physical or virtual) mode--> store it with folder VM - FACT
  13. Start the virtual machine, now your VM should see both drives, with good data course :-)

  I have just made this procedure (add ROW with data in Linux VM) on ubuntu VM, works well

  See you soon

• M800: How to add SSD (for an existing HARD disk)

  Hello

  I currently have an old Thinkpad T400 having an SSD inside. The SSD has been installed there maybe 2 years ago, but now I'm upgrading to a desktop M800. I ordered the M800 with cheaper hard drive with the plan to migrate my current SSD in it. But I was wondering if there is a procedure that I follow for what happens once the hard drive is physically installed. Is there a document somewhere online or an easy way for all it? Or is it more like a recovery by using the tool of Windows Media and then comes the installation of Windows on the SSD and then go online and start to download drivers one by one?

  Thank you

  You order your M800 Office with the 2nd disc vacuum hook pre-installed blue plastic?  If so, you just take your SSD 2.5 "of the T400 and wrap clamp empty blue plastic delivered by the M800 around it and put back the final cut in the 2nd cage of readers of the M800.  Now, he is physically installed.

  Then, since the two physical disks are now available at the same time and the M800 with HARD drive spinner delivered will be Win7/Win10 pre-installed on the HARD drive cone, you can simply use Macrium reflect free (or similar product) installed in operational windows from the spinner of HARD drive to clone windows delivered pre-installed HARD drive spinner on to the SSD.

  Then re - start and stop to enter the configuration of the BIOS of the M800 utility and change the start-up boot sequence to display the SSD as the first drive hard (you can exclude the spinner of the disk in the list, since you are not going to use it to start again).  Save and exit the BIOS Setup utility and re-boot, which should take place now of the SSD (running the provided Lenovo delivered Windows that you just cloned from the spinner of the HDD to the SSD).

  You should now be initialized and operational of the SSD, and you can confirm that the SSD should be C and other partitions (on the spinner HDD) D and higher.

  Now, you can use Partition Wizard free to remove all partitions on the HARD drive, to re-purpose spinner it as a 2nd disc of 'data '.  You can also then Partition Wizard allows you to create new partitions on the HARD drive cone that you can use for anything you want (for example to perform backups regular image/data from SSD to target folders on the spinner HDD backup).

  There is really no reason to "start from scratch" installation of Windows on a target freshly wiping SSD and then having to download/install all drivers provided by Lenovo and software for the M800.  Why waste your time?  Just clone the delivered spinner of the disk HARD Windows through to the SSD, delete the contents of the Pan from HARD drive, create 'data' or the partitions on the HARD drive cone and use it.

  You now have a work M800 2 discs (with additional 'data' or the partitions on spinner SSD or HARD drive).

  As you probably know, there are some Windows features (for example "weekly defrag") that should NOT be run on an SSD, even if they are enabled by default on a Windows HARD drive spinner.  If you install Windows from scratch on an SSD, these would have been auto-optimisé to you by the Windows Installer, but this is not how you got here (since you used the spinner provided by Lenovo Windows disk cloning).  So when you clone HARD drive spinner Windows more SSD you must then manually "twist" a few things in Windows to optimize performance specially for SSDS.

  Just a quick search online for "optimize Windows for SSD" will give you the standard set of tweaking recommendations accepted.  There will be differing opinions, but the important thing here is that your cloned windows now running on the SSD was initially installed on HARD drive spinner, no SSD, so automatically installed SSD optimizations were not initially defined.

• A Toshiba Satellite L300-01:00 - Sata 2 or 3 HARD disk controller?

  Hello

  I notebokk Toshiba Satellite L300-01:00

  My HD is broken and I would like to replace this HD SSD.
  This phone supports 2 SATA or SATA 3.

  Thanks in advance for your support.

  If you are the owner of the Satellite L300-01:00 should not be a big problem to get details and information about devices built in the notebook.

  I recommend you to install one of the two material great diagnostic tools which are:
  Everest Home Edition
  Sandra Sisoft.
  These two tools were recommended by the members of different communities and I love it too.

  These tools provide a lot of information on the material and I guess you get also information about the properties of HARD disk controller.

• Satellite A200 PSAE3: XP Setup can't find HARD disk drives

  Hello

  I have laptop Satellite A200 PSAE3 and editing Vista Home premium 32-bit installed.

  I want to fix it to dual boot with Windows XP.
  But when I go to install XP, it says "SETUP has NOT FIND ALL DRIVES HARD INSTALLED in YOUR COMPUTER".

  Please let me know what are the possible solutions to overcome this problem.

  This problem can be solved very easily install the right driver SATA ;)

  Yes, you must install a SATA driver to recognize the SATA HDD!

  I did, is that your Win XP doesn't do not contains the latest SATA drivers that are necessary and important install the Windows operating system.

  The Intel Matrix Storage Manager contains the SATA drivers for two different chipsets.
  Visit the European driver from Toshiba or Intel page and download the Storage Manager!

  You will need an external USB FDD drive to include this SATA driver in the installation of Win XP.
  Maybe you remember that Setup during the installation process of Win XP Win XP request by pressing the F6 key to install a 3rd party SATA drivers.
  You must connect the external floppy drive, and then you could install such SATA driver.

  But perhaps the problem is the USB FDD drive.
  To be honest I n t have such external floppy drive unit and so I had to include the SATA driver using another solution.

  I used the * program nLite. It s for free and may be required from the internet. Google simply.
  You can use this application to create a new XP CD with SATA driver. Then you could start from this new CD to install XP on your machine.

  I did and I managed

  Bye and have a nice day buddy ;)

• w540 replace the cd for a second hard disk drive?

  Hello

  I ordered the thinkpad w540 last week. With a dirve normal hard drive and a CD compartment. I figured out after the arrivied to the computer I got a solidsate inside my xps 15 hp.

  In the best of cases, I would replace the CD drive, as says the config in the web page in timeline option could be done. How could I know if it is possible to replace the CD player with another hard drive?

  Otherwise I would try to replace the original disk for the solid state hard drive, but in this case I loose windows system 8. Is is possible to install again in the new hard drive with the same license?

  I was wondering just because it would be nice to keep the drive inside your computer instead of having to plug it in all the time, due to the faster speed, it would be good to use is as the primary dirver.

  Thanks in advance,

  -Jorge

  Hi, Jorge

  you will need an adapter "caddy" to house the second HDD/SDD. Ch right here in the forum, see http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?location=forum-board%3AW_ThinkPads&q=caddy... .

  For my W540, I use the caddy of http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=555 and have a very good experience over the years (W510, W520, W540...).

  Regarding replace drive HARD original with SSD, there are basically two possibilities - either you use the recovery option (create your own media - see google or trying to get a Lenovo - not sure it will work) or use a transfer software. I have used for years Acronis products, especially because it acknowledges the SSD and aligns everything as it should on SSD (won't go now too deeply in the alignment of industry and to this day).

  And if you want to run your W540 on steroids, alias max possilbe storage capacity, see my signature...

• Replacement for HP G62 hard disk recovery

  Hello

  I've seen other similar users have reported this problem but am not finding an answer that would solve my problem.  Having a laptop of HP G62-355DX under Windows 7 Home Premium, the hard drive turned be default via diagnostic codes and by calling the HP technical support to confirm.  The mfr/size of the existing hard drive is a Samsung 320.   Bought a new Seagate 1 TB of Best Buy.   I have 4 HP recovery disks.  Through the specified process for the recovery of the system, but once reached the end of it when the display shows "Preparation of recovery is complete:

  

  .. When the portable computer is restarted, it appears with the message no boot device is (and the hard drive for laptop boot option is enabled in the BIOS).

  Am stuck at this point;  supposedly, more large drives are supposed to work but is at - it a known issue?  I've seen references to one for different situations in these forums (for a desktop PC, for example).

  Or do I have to repartition the hard drive into two partitions, a 320GB and everything else - use someone elses of the Microsoft Windows 7 OEM CD?

  I do not have the Microsoft Home Premimum disc of course, only the HP recovery discs.

  The new hard drive sometimes requires to prepare first with utility cd from Cyberlink. Download and save the file. Once the download is complete, place a blank cd in your drive and click on the downloaded file to create a boot cd. Start with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicates the hard disk is ready. Remove the cd, insert the first disc of recovery and restart the laptop.

• Satellite P300 - 190 PSPC2C - water spill and the HARD disk does not appear on the Setup

  Hello

  Spilled water on the keyboard. Laptop has stopped working.
  Dried, but did not recognize the HDD start up and HDD does not Set - up.
  Moved the HARD drive to another location of the HARD drive on the laptop and it appears at startup and boot OK.
  Is there an easy way to find and repair the defective HARD drive slot?

  Thanks for any help.

  PK

  Hello

  The HARD drive slot is not repairable. It s a HARD disk controller and I guess the HARD disk controller is dead.
  The HARD disk controller is part of the motherboard and if you want to repair it, so the entire motherboard must be replaced.

  New motherboard would cost a small fortune he of not good about market 350Euros
  That's why I put t think it is s to replace the mobo only to get the HARD drive in the first location of work

  This is my personal opinion...

• Satellite A200-137 - cannot install windows after the hard disk crash

  last week my a200-137 crashed and now I have the new hitachi 500 GB hard drive on it, even before the accident.
  I have install with Toshiba recovery DVD windows Vista on it and after succesfull installed I have to start windows, it says prepare for first use windows then I have to wait a while and then I get the message that windows setup is not complete. But it is complete!

  After trying to install 3 times with recovert I tried to install windows xp.
  After a few minutes and transering files, I don't get the message no disc found! It is said that there is no hard drive on the laptop!
  But when I start the start menu or the settings menu, I can see the 500 GB Hitachi hard drive!

  So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?

  > So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?
  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why you can not install recovery image. It would be interesting to know if the same thing will happen when you replace the HARD with the same or identical.
  This title was the original HARD drive?
  If possible, try to get original Microsoft installation disc and check if the HARD drive will be recognized by Vista or Win7 and of course if you will be able to install and boot OS preinstalled.

  Regarding the installation of Windows XP Home edition: it is well known that the WXP installation will start properly due to lack of SATA driver that must be loaded prior to installation of WXP begins.
  Check out this forum and you will find hundreds of threads with detailed explanation why this happen and what can you do about it.
