Spin down drives selectively

I have three drives on my machine Windows 8 Pro. How can I turn down only those who are inactive. I used to be able to do this in Windows XP, but now it doesn't seem to be a way to turn one down while others are still active.

Are you sure? Antivirus programs also do from time to time...

But if she still doesn't not idling, you can use resource monitor to check the access files and player...

  • SSHD MQ01ABD100H sound squeaky to spin down & to the stop

    Hello world!

    I recently bought a Toshiba SSHD (model MQ01ABD100H) and tried to install it. First thing, I noticed that BIOS of my HP Probook s 4370 could not find the disc, and therefore Windows did not install on it.

    I was hoping it was an old BIOS problem without acknowledging a SSHD. OK, I said. Update BIOS! Check! But it did not help. Then, I tried and retried it exchanges with the old drive and then start with Hirens boot.

    Hirens boot some utils HDD was unable to read the new SMART SSHD status. Yet once I hoped it was because of beeing SSHD a new design or something like that. Finally I mamanged to partition the drive with one of the utils and then install a new copy of Windows.

    But the thing that bothers me is another: the sound of creaking at every spin down (usually to the computer is shut down). Taking my 15 years of experience which is a sing that the drive will not last much longer. OK, I've had enough.

    Packed this shit and he returned to the store, citing the above problems and ask for a replacement. And today I got my rear disc. The former. With the Squeak. On paper that accompanies it reads: tested disc. No error found. No sh * t...

    Now, I need your advice guys. Before I pick up the phone and send the technician to hell. What noise grinding spin-down? Anyone had similar problems? Should I continue to use the disk and ignore the sound?

    Answers appreciated!
    Kind regards

    Hello

    It of difficult to say something about this grinding sound.

    I had a HARD (common 2.5 SATA) internal drive that makes some pinging, but this did not always appear. From time to time I could notice clicks, but the HARD drive was working normally and I have not noticed any problems.

    But of course; in my opinion, everyone could be afraid of these special sounds if it comes from the HARD drive.

    I can give you the appropriate recommendation because it is really hard to tell if its a HARD drive failure, or perhaps not you should simply call the service guy and should try to test another HARD disk.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - disk hard keeps spinning down

    Hi, I have recently updated the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L20, and I noticed that the disk hard keeps spinning down after about a minute, even while typing or surfing on the internet. I checked the power settings Windows XP and have it put on the desk, with the time 'Disable hard drive' set to 5 minutes when it is plugged and 5 minutes on battery (I always use on the same network). I checked the BIOS settings to see if there is something listed there, but there are no settings for hard disk power management in the BIOS.

    Although the turning down of the hard disk does not affect performance, I fear that it may be to focus on rising constant power drive / descent.
    The new version of BIOS is 25 April 06 Windows Bios Update for Satellite L20 (PSL2X), Satellite Pro L20 (PSL2Y) and Equium L20 (PSL2Z)', or a file 2, 20 - WIN.

    I think that it s nothing unusual that the HARD drive keeps spinning down applies none or BONES need the HARD disk activity.
    In addition, the turning down of the HARD drive has no effect from the bottom on the performance of the HARD disk or over the life of the HARD drive.

  • from the drop-down list selection to multi-line output

    I am trying to create a pdf form with Adobe XPro, where I will have multiple delivery addresses. I want to have is that the user can select the correct recipient group in the drop-down list.

    Given that the drop-down lists pdf format are just simple lines the drop-down list selection could only display the name of the company (e.g., COMPANY A) and selecting the company wanted to, this would trigger the whole address (multiline) to appear as described below (on another text field is ok if necessary)

  • How to drive the content of a text field or table from a drop-down list selection cell?

    Users will choose an option in a menu drop-down. I want their selection to control the contents of the cells in a table or text elsewhere on the form fields.

    Hi Nick,

    Here are some examples:

    If you open these in LC Designer, you can view the script by selecting the menu drop down and looking at the script at the top of the window Editor. If the script editor is a single line, you can drag the lower edge to make it bigger.

  • Long boot time and the gel boot drive selection window

    Hello. I have a problem with my MacBook Pro 13 retina "(2015 at the beginning).

    My mac is about 4 minutes of cranking up about a quarter of the time and it is not related to the problem of the "boot disk select parameters. The computer just hangs before it's anything related to the start-up procedure. It's just a black screen with no interaction with the mouse, no noise and no keyboard input. It does not recognize the 'option key ' (used to get into the disk boot selector) until I pressed it for several minutes, and then the boot drive selector freezes as well.

    I don't have any external drives connected, and already tried SMC reset, reset the PRAM and reinstalling the operating system (normal wipe and wipe any partition).

    I always have Apple Care left. Help, please. Thank you.

    Hi Herojeff02:

    It seems that you have some SSD problems.

    Have you tried to boot safe mode. Try safe mode if your Mac does not commissioning - Apple Support

    You can start in recovery mode by pressing command + R and then using disk utility to check your SSD.

    See the following links: OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

    Resolve startup issues and perform maintenance on disk with disk utility and fsck - Apple Support

    If you have Apple Care, I'd do an appointment at the Genius Bar. It could also be a hardware problem.

  • Configurator error 'the hard size in the first string of RAID must be smaller than the drive selected in the second Raid channel'

    Hello, I hope this is the forum for this question rigth.

    I am trying to set up a new T330 for one of our customers, and I want to use a Raid 1 + Raid 1 configuration. First raid for the operating system and daily backups, second raid for a database.

    I tried the C15c configuration, but I always get the error "the size of the hard drive in the first RAID channel must be smaller than the selected hard drive in the second Raid channel".

    Is it really necessary to buy an SSD that is bigger than the HD used in the first Raid? The DSS may be relatively low, but I need more space for the backup.

    Is there an alternative solution to this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Stefan

    Yes. In fact, you can mix drive types on the SAME channel... they just cannot be mixed in the same virtual disk (table).

  • Drop-down list selection

    If someone has been able to successfully get the current selection in a drop-down list?  I have the drop-down list of channels and can change the selection in the Simulator.

    temp3 vartring = myDropDown.selectedItem.toString ();

    does not work.

    However,.

    var temp1:int = myDropDown.selectedIndex;

    correctly return the index of the selected item.

    I feel like I'm missing something obvious here.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hey,.

    You can configure your tabular data provider and then everything just to get the index selected in the selected point drop-down list and then using that call the element of the array. for example, here is a list of colors in a drop-down list:

    var listOfThings:DropDown = new DropDown();
    
    var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
    
    var arr:Array = new Array([{label:'green'},
        {label:'blue'},
        {label:'orange'},
        {label:'red'},
        {label:'yellow'},
        {label:'silver'}] );
    
    dp.setItems(arr);
    
    listOfThings.dataProvider = dp;
    

    now, if you were to get the index selected in the drop-down list item and select the table at this level:

    arr[listOfThings.selectedIndex].label;
    

    This should retrieve the label of the selected item.

  • Best practical Question - update the query (see object) based on the drop-down list selection

    I have a question about the most efficient way to perform the following task:

    I create a page that contains several DVT components to display data based on specific requests.  Top of page I am hoping to have a drop down menu (selectOneChoice) that contains dates different and based on what the user selects (i.e. 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, etc.), this will update the query in the view object of some (i.s. WHERE Date = '2011', or WHERE Date = 2013"), and then you view the appropriate data in the DVT.  What is the best way to do this - from a point of view bean managed / page, as well as the View object?  Advice/documentation would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    When you drag the vo executeWithParams one another that will create links for operations such as 'executeWithParams2', 'executeWithParams3 '. On the method that you use to update a view by calling the executeWithParams operation, you call the other operations too.
