• Free space of hard drive in the MacBook air changes seemingly at random

  In recent days, my hard drive went a few GB of free space, zero KB. I check with clean my mac and see, first that my free space of RAM with the passage of time is reduced up to 10 mg and space free hard drive then start reduced up to zero KB and after 20 sec RAM & hard return to normal space (increased).

  What is the problem?

  You seem to be two distinct topics: storage and RAM. It is normal that all RAM to use. Please read the section of memory to use the activity monitor to your Mac - Apple Support.

  Never use a 'cleansing' of utilities for any purpose. Uninstall "CleanMyMac.

  Hello

  It sounds a bit like a HARD drive problem.
  I recommend checking out the HARD drive using a free tool called Drive Fitness Test
  This free tool allows you to get more details on the State of the HARD drive and maybe some error would be detected which would mean that HARD drive failures and disk HARD must be replaced.

• Alternative to the reset by Satellite A660 for potential HARD drive problem

  In the last week or two, I got a few blue screens, saying he was driving demand, and that windows must be shut down to avoid damage my computer.

  I have just restart and continue working.
  The last time it happened, I had repeatedly "initialization failed" and it says hdd, SDS, fdd. If I pressed the power button until I didn't see no signs of activity, then started. Things went well. I called Toshiba support and they recommended that I go home and save my files before continuing. It took hours selectively to clean, sort the previous backups, and a small footprint of the backup system.

  When I called Toshiba once again, they recommended a "takeover", which is restoring the factory settings. It puts me in the stone age. I have to go through a never-ending process of the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, install and reconfigure all the applications and environments/configurations, etc. It will essentially take on holiday, if not more. I'll also have to get another computer (maybe a netbook) to stay in touch while I restart my laptop. It's barely more than a year.

  Is there a diagnosis I can do to determine the probability that there is a hard drive problem? Support for Toshiba said that is the surest way, because it provides a diagnostic F10 for the hard disk code, and it also pushes the bad sectors at the end of the disc (logically, I suppose, since you can't physically move a fault).

  > About Hitachi DFT, is it important that my HARD drive is Toshiba mk6465gsx? This is what is displayed "Hard drives" in the Device Manager.

  It s no matter what HARD drive manufacturer, it is the Drive Fitness Test is able to scan all hard drives to find errors.

  > Also, http://www.hitachigst.com/support/downloads/#DFTshows links to create boot disks, but I was wondering if I could create a bootable instead.

  Not sure if this is possible if there is that one option to create a startup disk, and then a flash stick does not work. But of course you can try this out.

  > This laptop does not come with a floppy drive, and I still create coasters trying to burn discs.
  You don't need the floppy drive, the tool must create a disk bootable (CD)

  > I guess that the same question can be asked on Memtest86. Another issue is the relevance of Memtest86 for my system. My c drive has a "Program Files" folder, but also a "Program Files (x 86)" folder for 32-bit applications. Memtest86 is for the x 86 architecture. I don't know if my 64-bit Windows 7 involves a non - x 86 architecture.

  I guess that Memtest86 should also work on Win 7 64 bit systems. But also the MemTest 4.20 is 64-bit capable

• What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  What would happen if the computer goes into hibernation mode, but there is no free space on hard drive?

  No doubt a failure to the hibernation or a nasty system crash - not sure and not willing to risk a stable system there.  :-)

• Free space on hard drive for HP PROBOOK 450 G0 - H0U95EA

  Hello

  I'm looking for a laptopo HP, I would like to know the free space on hard drive for HP PROBOOK 450 G0 - H0U95EA.

  In the datasheet there are 750GB but in a boutique internet... I found that free space is that of 320 GB, is it good?

  Thank you!

  Marco

  More new software installs would more or less 60 gigs and a 750 GB drive reads as on 690 concerts in Windows Explorer. There will be a recovery partition and system partition that could take up to another 20 GB or more. Free space out of the box is still more than 575 casual jobs. That will decrease as games for Windows restore points.

• iMac hard drive problem

  My older iMac 8.1 (Intel Core 2), running OS x 10.9 ran slow, then a few application icons disappears from the display, after a restart, the application has stopped working completely. I tried to reinstall OSX, when this does not work, I did a full erase and reinstall it again, still none of my apps does not work. It manifests itself, and when I click it, it does nothing. I even went back to my original OSX 10.6 Snow Leppard and reinstalled drive and my desktop icons appeared for a few minutes and then everthing disappeared. Also, this has happened during execution of 10.9 as well. Now the only thing that the computer be used to mail is electronic and Safari. I can't run programs and do not have access to HD. If I tried to re - install 10.9, it tells me that it is impossible at this time. I think that my HD is dead? You wanted to check before I replaced it. It starts well, can run internet but not impossible to install, download or run programs. Disk First aid indicates that the computer is fine. Can not really afford to buy a new Mac now, so hoping that this can be a cheaper alternative.

  How much free space on the hard drive?

  There is no 100% way to check the health of a hard disk. Disk utility check alone is doing a part-time job to check the directory structure but not physical integrity of the reader. If you select the top level of a drive in disk utility and then file > retrieves the information of to half way down you can see the report of the SMART State which can indicate if a drive is having problems.  With one of my discs that I checked that feature, but it was not picking up on several defective sectors systematically producing errors.

  The only real way to test a faulty hardware on a computer is to isolate the part (normally in the replacement, or do without it) and see if the issues go away.

  I always keep a clone bootable backup of my drive on a separate drive so I can still boot from the second disk to see if it's an internal drive error.  Having this type of backup is just a part of the ownership of a computer.

  I suppose there is also the possibility, it's another problem as the RAM.  A bad drive would be more consistent as to what elements show problems such as you see.

  You can check on sites like ifixit or OWC (macsales.com) for instructional videos on how to replace the disks.

• Pavilion 15-n211dx: Hp Pavilion 15-n211dx hard drive problems

  Hello

  Last March, I bought a Hp Pavilion n211dx-15 and 9 months after I bought it, I had some problems with the RAM because of my eletricity, but I already bought a new pair of ram sticks. I tried to do the system recovery Image minimized by myself because I didn't know it was a problem of ram, in the middle of the installation, the computer froze and the pixels have been going nuts. In any case, when I had the fixed ram, I started the computer and I saw that I had altogether 90 GB of HARD disk space (it comes with a 750 GB HARD drive), the windows installation is fine and all, but my HDD shows that 90GB total and the computer comes with a 750 GB HARD drive , I do not have what to do (if I have to install stuff and HARD drive drivers).

  Thank you

• HP Recovery, causing hard drive problem

  OK... Earlier I messed up my hard drive on my laptop. So I got the HP recovery discs, used... I thought that it fixed the problem... but now I look in the properties of my C: / drive & it says that my hard drive is only 25GB. Which is weird, because he used to say that he was of 250 GB. So now, he continues to tell me that I'm running out of space on my drive... Anyone has an idea as to why it is now only show my 25 GB hard drive instead of the real 250 GB is it? Can I completely format my hard drive and then use the recovery discs to fix? IM thinking that maybe that could be the problem... I don't know how to format, either... I have a HP Pavilion with Vista dv6653cl, any help is appreciated... because I was so excited I thought I fixed the drive then see this problem... knew it was too good to be true...
  
  Can I get a new hard drive, & use the recovery on a new hard drive disk? Or that won't work?
  
  I can't do a lot with just 25 GB of space. So, if I can't get the hard drive to its original 250 GB, then other what choice have I?

  Finally, I have fixed everything. Thank you very much for your help!

• 2nd IDE HARD drive problems

  Hey,.

  I'm having a problem with a 2nd drive HARD IDE, I,

  For some reason any used on my PC recognize it,.

  I have a 160 Gb SATA HDD (which is my first HARD drive with the OS on it) and a 40 GB IDE HARD drive (which is for storage, etc.)

  Now I want my second HARD drive (where is also 40 GB) of additional storage space, but my PC used to recognize both IDE, one of them at a time with the SATA HARD drive.

  The two IDE is fine and working properly I know (I ran the Tests and others), they both are recognized when put with the SATA, one at a time but not when I put all three in all

  My Pc is:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00892923

  SATA is: Western Digital Caviar WD1600JS (160Gb) (OS = XP Pro 32-bit)

  IDE 1 is: Maxtor 2F040L0 (40 GB)

  2nd IDE is: Seagate ST340015A (40 GB)

  No idea as to why its doing this and a way to fix it?

  Thank you

  SGMAlice

  Hey,.

  Sorry its been, lived a hard time lately, not had much on my mind.

  The problem is solved!

  It may be a combination of things you suggested or the fact that I saw my PC the other day and re-installed the OS completely.

  Suffice it to say: all three now work together

  Thanks a lot for your help, you two

  Help, please! Thank you

  Hello MissLaniS,

  I understand that you declare your drive hard shows that its only 25GB and not the 250 it is supposed to be, is - that correct? I'll be happy to help you.

  This looks like something of a large size is taking to much space or the disk is partitioned incorrectly. You can use the discs that you have to format the disc and that should remove and fix some additions or changes have been made. The recovery discs that you have should reformat your drive and it should return as if it was originally from the box.

  Please answer as soon as possible.

  Thank you
