STOR. E CANVIO Formats

Hi all

I have a 1 TB STOR. CANVIO E and it is currently formatted as it is out of the box as ready NTFS for Mac.

I already installed the tool to NTI Back Up pre-loaded on my laptop... so can I reformat the drive in FAT32?

The reason want to format in FAT32 so that systems such as my PS3 can then consult music/movies on the external HHD.

Thanks - Jason

Why not? I mean it of a common external USB HDD and if you want you can format the HARD drive and can change the file system
Don t see no reason why that shouldn't be possible.

  • How to move data from iMac to 3 TB Stor.E Canvio external HARD drive

    Hi guys,.

    First post, new to all this.

    I bought a Toshiba 3 to Stor.E Canvio external hard drive to get a load of movies and music out of my iMac.

    I plugged it in, the iMac seems to recognize, so I tried to drag and drop in the folder on the hard drive, but it leaves nothing.

    Can someone give me some advice on how to move things from my iMac to the new hard disk?

    Thank you very much, looking forward to hear from you.

    If you want to use it in Mac, you must re-formatted the system filesystem HFS + for Mac compatibility.

  • Toshiba Stor.e Canvio on MacBook Pro

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Stor.e Canvio 1 TB external hard drive and I have problems when I connect it on MacBook Pro.
    I formatted for Mac OS (with the registry) and works well with the iMac and Mac Pro, but nothing to do on Macbooks...
    Searching the Internet I found that this problem is impossible due to a hardware problem which can be solved using a USB hub and I tried but does not work...

    I don't know what else I can do if you know something about this problem, I will be appreciated...

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I assume you mean on this external HARD drive
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/Canvio/

    This HARD drive needs 900mA current and this means that you can use a USB 3.0 port or 2 USB 2.0 ports.
    The point is that a USB 3.0 port provide 900mA and USB 2.0 port provides 500mA
    So if you Mac provides only the 500mA to each USB slot, then you connect the 2 ports USB 2.0 HARD drive, in this case, you can use a usb cable to Y.

    Hello

    I got a Toshiba Stor.E Canvio for about 2 years without problems

    By using the external drive recently and the USB cable is removed accidentally. After attempting to connect the USB on my Mac again once the external HARD drive does not appear in the Finder.

    Passing through the disk utility, the hard drive is visible, but I am unable to check or repair the disk.

    The message I get is

    "Peut-t disk utility repair this disk. "Save as many files as possible, reformat the drive and restore your backed up files.

    The HARD drive itself is turned on, the light is on... but I'm stuck now

  • Problem with Stor.E Canvio - TB 3 drive HARD USB 3.0 external

    I bought a 3 TB Canvio HDWC130EW3J1 and used to save a load of files on the partition, with it came.
    Everything is OK. Unplugged the HDD than Win 7 and plugged into another Win 7 and - no partition.

    Win 7 identified as brute of 3 TB.
    I've messed up with her for a bit, abandoned and finally it was exchanged for a new, I assumed it was a defective controller or something.

    The replacement is exactly the same. As soon as the reader is disconnected and reconnected, everything disappeared. I tried this partitioning with a 3 TB GPT partition and a 2 TB MBR, it contains the same.

    I bought a £ 75 door stop. I dare not put anything on the drive, it is useless.
    Behaves the same USB2 and USB3.
    I had a quick glance at various forums and see people complaining about similar problems, but no resolution.

    Anyone have any idea?

    It is a HARD USB 3.0 drive that is also compatible with the USB 2.0 standard.
    I m wondering if the HARD drive could be recognized properly using a Y USB 3.0 cable that allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports.

    In addition HARD drive supports the format NTFS file standard and in my opinion it of not necessary to change the format of files.

    Moreover HARD drive supports password encryption and helps secure the data from unauthorized access.
    In case you use this HDD in relation to other laptops, respect this password encryption.

  • Store.E Canvio HDD - Win XP logo test has been placed correctly.

    Try to install this drive but says that he has been testing windows logo for XP compatibility.

    Why?

    Hello

    To my knowledge, this error pops up to avoid errors with Windows hardware and related software that is installed. Mainly the indication that the software or driver or one of the files is not signed for the version of Windows that you are using in your case of Win XP.

    Windows system conduct detection signature each time an INF file is used to install the equipment from a designated device class. You can simply the button continue the installation of the software

    For the future, you can turn off this kind of message.
    1. open system in Control Panel.
    2. on the Hardware tab, click driver signing.
    3. under verification of signatures of file, click on ignore, warn or block
    Click Ignore to allow all device drivers must be installed on this computer, regardless of whether they have a digital signature.

  • Stor.E Canvio 2 TB HDD laptop - WLan access using Xbox

    I am looking to buy one of these numbers to play the digital media, currently stored on my laptop on my Xbox one.
    According to the writing on the Web site, the files are accessible wirelessly on the network.

    Can I save data to him on the network too?

    For an optimal user experience I would connect my laptop hard drive and access the multimedia files with the xbox one or the hard drive connected to the xbox one wireless and save wireless on it from my laptop.

    Or the other of these two together would be ups work?

    It is a common external USB 2.5 HDD.
    This means that you can use as a common HARD disk.

    I put t know how your setting up your home wireless network, but generally you can use this disc external HARD as NAS (storage attached to the network).

    You can also configure and add files and directories by using the Windows Media center. This will allow you to access the files on DLNA
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/add-media-files-to-Windows-Media-Center

    But in general your question should not be tied to this HARD drive but it s is the home network configuration.

  • MacBook 2006 does not recognize the Canvio Stor.e

    Hello world!

    I bought this external HDD Stor.e Canvio (2 TB usb2/3),
    The problem is that it only appears not on the macbook in 2006 (2 GB ram 2 GHz c2d OSX 10.4) I bought it for.

    But:
    The HARD drive is perfectly recognized by my macbook pro.
    Other external hard drives are recognized by the macbook (2006), no problem here (even usb powered works of readers, the canvio has its own power plug). The canvio is formatted in Mac OS.

    Clearly, I do not understand the problem, it should work.
    And the 2006 is compatible if I read the news of the canvio box.

    No idea how to run is more than welcome.

    Thank you!

    PS: latest news, the canvio appeared on the 2006 once or twice, but I don't know what was 'different' these times.

    Hello

    First of all it s not the HARD problem because this HARD disk drive works fine in the other computer (Macbook).

    This HARD drive supports the USB 3.0 standard but it s compatible with the USB 2.0 standard.
    The point is that the USB 3.0 offers 900mA. The USB 2.0 port common supports only 500mA.

    I think the problem is the low power supplied by Macbook s USB port. In this case, you must use a USB Y cable in order to connect the HARD drive to 2 USB 2.0 ports.

    Not sure if it will really solve your problem, but I think that this should be verified

  • Toshiba Canvio Stor.E 1 TB 2.5 "great copy hangin out after a few minutes

    Hello

    I just bought the Toshiba 2.5 "Stor.E Canvio 1 TB on a Windows 7 Thoshiba laptop.
    Whenever I do a great copy, after a few minutes, the copy blocks.

    The process explore hangs, it cannot be killed and the only solution is to disconnect the usb port and plug it back.

    How would I fix this?

    Thank you
    Alex

    Hello

    Theoretically, it could be a HARD drive problem.
    Would be interesting to know if the other HARD drive does the same thing

    However Stor.E Canvio is a HARD USB 3.0 drive and it takes min 900mA to operate correctly.
    It might be possible that not enough power provided by the USB port.
    You can try to plug an external USB hub between the laptop and the HARD drive to verify functionality.

    Hello

    I just got a new Toshiba 2.5 "Stor.E Canvio 1 TB and there seems to be a problem with the USB connection.
    The slightest touch on the usb cord disconnects the drive.

    I found the only way to make it work is to shake the head until the light is on, but it's very tricky.

    I tried the other usb connections on my PC, and they are very good.

    Is this just a bad lead?

  • Toshiba STOR. E CANVIO external HARD disk - windows cannot find 'ToshibaPlaces '.

    Hello I have a problem with my new external hard drive Toshiba STOR. CANVIO E (3 terabytes).

    I double click on him and this message appears:

    Windows cannot find 'ToshibaPlaces '. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. To search for a file, click on the search button, and then click search.

    The good news is that when I right click I can press 'Explorer' and it Explorer.

    Can you help me please?

    I have found this HARD drive on a Toshiba page and the page on record indicates that a Quick Start Guide has been preloaded.
    I guess I was placed on the Toshiba Places page.
    But Toshiba Places have been replaced by parts of Symbaloo and probably the link is not valid more
