Size of the drive in expansion

Using my disk drive (also aoemi partition software) management tool main hard has 3 partitions: reserved for the system recovery, and win7 and some unallocated space. All 3 partitions are partitions primary/blue in the dark Disk Manager.

recovery is an image file created by the OEM or when I first install windows 7.  I don't know what system reserved is, but I guess it is restoring to factory or something specifications.  Win7 is the system / boot.

I get messages of diskspace for recovery and the reserved disks that are annoying, but as far as I can tell without danger since none of these readers are really used, insofar as I know.  So I would either delete messages or extend these two partitions.

I am unable to do with Manager disk or aoemi;  I guess because they are contiguous to other data.

My temporary solution is to create 2 new large partition to unallocated space, copy the data, delete the old partitions and then rename the new to the old drive letters.

Would this work or I'm courting disaster if I ever rely on these 2 partitions?

You are welcome.

If you get a not enough space from the disk recovery and system reserved partition, something has been added for them that you bought your machine.

We are not deprived to the exact files that should be on them. This was done by the manufacturer during the installation/manufacturing; That's why I advised to contact them to see what additional files have been added so that they can give you good advice on what you need to remove.

See you soon.

    Your D drive is the configuration of your Partition recovery by the manufacturer of your computer.
    It is used to restore your system in case it crashes.
    It is not to be touched, adds anything in or remove anything from him.

  • Increase the size of the hard drive - greyed out

    We're just trying to prepare for production and of course do some tests.

    I created a new Windows 2008 R2 64-bit server and played a bit with this with different scenarios includes the increase in the size of the virtual disk without any problems.

    I waited for Converter 4.3 so that I can convert some of my Hyper-V 2008 R2 servers.  One of our servers in development that today ' today, I converted with very few questions.  I converted the source without changing the size of the disc etc, so he created as a thick disk with about 42 GB in size.  I then played with vMotion (and also to stop the virtual machine so that I could also spend data warehouses) and at the same time changed the type of disc to thin.  Once more everything is ok.

    So the next test was to change the size of the drive... but unfortunately when I select Edit settings, then 1 hard drive, everything is gray, even though I turned off the VM (although one I created as new machine is fine to change even when powered by the look of it).

    So is this something to do with the conversion process?

    The only thing I see that is different, wise hard drive between the two is that one that is ok is defined as a SCSI device node, whereas the convert is an IDE.

    Any help most appreciated.

    Thank you

    That's your problem.  You cannot increase the IDE drive unless you use the converter again.  What I would do, is to do the conversion again, and this time, in step 3 change the controller to the SCSI (LSI).  This will then give you the option to increase the drive to move forward, without the use of the converter.

  • As a Time Machine backup, it keeps adding to the size of the backup?

    TM starts the backup and starts suddenly to add to the size of the backup, it will do. This means that no player will never be large enough to accommodate the backup because it keeps growing in size (as each block of data is added, the size of the backup continues expansion of the same amount). I have attached 2 screenshots showing what has happened in the minute to restart the backup. TM is backup on an external WD hard drive via the USB-3 port on my MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inches, end of 2013). 1.9 TB of data backup - there should not be a problem because the external hard drive has 3 TB of space and has been freshly formatted before being used for the first backup on this drive. As you can see from the screenshots, the backup is much larger than it should be.

    1 minute later screenshot:

    Before this behavior, I have had problems with Time Machine while using another backup drive (a drive LaCie Quadra) with for example, ignored backups, backups landed at calculation time, backups, partially blocked by a backup for more than 36 hours etc., error messages from read-only TM etc... I tried several solutions on this forum and none seem to have corrected these strange behaviors. It felt like I've solved a problem, shortly after another was about to begin.

    I stopped finally try the solutions suggested here in the forums, as well as some external sites such as Pondini and chose to use another drive (HD freshly cleared using disk utility - the WD drive that is currently attached to the MBP). The WD external drive worked well on the Mac Pro in the office, and I have no reason to suspect that this is the problem (I ran some tests after erasing it and there is no error reported).

    Well, the first symptom that something still was wrong was when backing up to disk WD has slowed to a crawl yesterday afternoon, but I left it on overnight. At noon today the backup was still running, but about ⅔ complete (very, very slowly - running data blocks are moving into very small pieces), but I have to bring the MBP to a meeting and everything stop. Then my back and everything by plugging, TM started upward and all seemed well, until I noticed that the backup data was almost 2.5 to. I restarted the MBP. It's once again, I noticed that Time Machine did not work as I expected. The size of the backup continues to expand... I was expecting TM that she had about 250 GB left to save, but as see you from the screenshots it much much smaller than that. I have let it run like that for about 2 hours, hoping that it was just a small mistake, but the HD continues to fill, only 185 GB of space left. Strangely, I can enter TM and see my data.

    Suggestions please? Very much appreciated.

    Stu

    Nobody answered, so I thought I'd share the temporary solution I came up with.

    I started in safe mode, deleted the backup external TM drive I was using and launched a full backup with TM (always in safe mode). I leave TM turn all night and a full backup has been completed. I rebooted, entered TM and restore some files to confirm that I was actually able to restore the backup pieces. Since that time, I did have problems with TM make scheduled backups, with one reading errors etc.

    I will continue to spend some time to know what triggered these questions... since I was able to make a backup in safe mode, this means that I have other avenues to explore.

    I will report back if I find anything.

  • Increase the size of the hard disk on the Image of VI

    Hello

    Is anyway to increase the size of the HD on an image that I have already downloaded on my server ESXi (3.5)? I tried to power on to the bottom of the image, and change the size of the hard drive under settings, but this makes no difference.

    I am familiar with how to change the size of HD on VMWare Workstation images. It is similar to this or is there an easier way to do it?

    This image is an application server and I foolishly deleted the original of my laptop, so it's the only copy I have. So is there a way I can increase the size of HD on this image easily?

    Thank you.

    You have a backup of the virtual machine that you can go back?  It looks like something I messed up with the partitions during the expansion.

    I would try attaching the C drive of this virtual machine to another virtual machine and it turn on.  See if you can use diskpart to extend the volume or if he thinks he is already extended.

    For future use, with Windows Server 2008, you do not need assistance VM or even need to power off the virtual machine itself to develop the hard drive.  You can simply extend the space using the VI Client, and Windows Server 2008 has features to extend hard drive built in.  Goto, right-click Disk Management and select Rescan disks to see the new size of the drive.  Then right-click on the current partition and select "Extend Volume" and a short wizard guides you through the rest.  You can do it without interruption.

    When I click Next, I get the following message:

    This means - there is a procurement policy that I can change or what I need to select a card raw SAN LUNS?

  • Resize the size of the disk on a virtual machine

    Hi all

    I have a virtual machine with 200 GB, would reduce the size of the drive for 100 GB?

    OS: Linux CentOS

    VMWARE ESX4.0

    VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.3 can be used to resize Windows and Linux powered sources.

    Although CentOS is not officially supported as source for Converter 4.3, RHEL 2, 3, 4 and 5 are so you could work with CentOS as well. No promises though, as it has not been tested and officially not certified.

    See page 52 of the Converter 4.3 Admin Guide at http://www.vmware.com/pdf/convsa_43_guide.pdf for more information.

  • Satellite 2400-103 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive?

    Hi all.
    New here.

    Nobody knows what the maximum hard disk size is for a Satellite 2400-103? This laptop has a 30GB HARD drive which is complete at the moment and I'm moving to a 160 GB unit.

    Used software - DiskCopy - clone Moose 30 GB of cloning to the new 160 GB drive. This creates a partition on the disk that is the same size as the original (about 28GB). If the new hard drive is installed on the laptop at this point, the laptop will be start OK. If I use a partition manager - Partition Magic - to resize the partition to the size of the new disc (about 150 GB) then the laptop does not start.

    Would it because there is a limit on the size of the hard disk supported by this laptop?
    If so, what is the limit?

    Thank you and best regards.

    Mike

    Hello!

    Satellite 2400 is very old notebook, so I think it has a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that you can only use up to 128 GB of free space so the maximum capacity of the disc HARD would be 120 GB. So I think that's the reason why the computer laptop can-t start successfully with the 160 GB model.

    In your case I bring back the 160 GB model to the computer store and ask one another 120 GB one. It should work normally

  • Satellite Pro 4280 - what is the size of the HARD drive?

    I just bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro 4280. According to the manual, it should have a 6.0 GB HDD but in my computer it is shown as having only a 1.34 GB capacity.

    PS I formatted the disk to remove the former owner data and operating system and you have installed Windows 98SE

    [Edited by: admin]

    Hello

    Satellite Pro 428Xcdt was certainly delivered with 6 GB HARD drive.
    Are you sure that you have checked the size of the HARD drive correctly?

    I guess the 1.34 GB is a free space on the HARD disk.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive?

    My age Satellite Pro 4600 has a 20 GB HARD drive. These are now very difficult to obtain, does anyone know if superior capacy HDDs can be used and, if so, what is the maximum size of the HARD drive.

    (Despite his age that I always use the Satellite Pro for some jobs).

    Hello John

    Satellite Pro 4600 is old enough for laptop and it is not easy to find the exact info. The fact is that this laptop comes with 10 and 20 GB hard drives.
    My opinion is that you can use 30 or even 40 GB HDD. I think that 30 GB new HARD drive should be enough for your some jobs.
