• Tecra S3 on Linux: hard drive not recognized

  Hello

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Tecra S3 and I'm happy with it, except for one important thing: I can not install Linux on it.

  I tried with the latest versions of Fedora Core and Ubuntu, the hard drive seems to be detected, but it is not recognized at the time of installation. I guess it's a matter of (too) new chipset Serial ATA.

  You have any recommendations or do you intend to contribute to the kernel modules in Linux/order that this model could be installed on Linux?

  Also note that I remember that I had the same problem when I tried to install Windows XP from a CD (not the recovery cd): the hard drive has not been detected and the installation failed.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I can t believe that you can not install a Windows operating system.
  You formatait once again the HARD drive? I recommend to format the HARD drive completely, then install the operating system.
  In addition, if you want to use the Windows operating system, you must use the recovery CD because this image included all the necessary drivers.

  If you want to work with the Linux operating system, I recommend using the Knoppix distribution. In this case you n t need to install anything. This Linux you can start from the DVD or CD and it works as a Linux operating system normally

  Good bye

• Tecra S3: SATA hard drive not recognized after XP updates

  Windows has recently completed an automatic update on a Tecra S3 equipped with a 60 GB HARD drive SATA.
  After the reboot required for updaates windows generates a BSOD.

  I've traced the error and found that the system can not find the hard drive.
  Even when I use the XP cd and restore/repair console without a hard drive is located.

  When I check the BIOS hard drive is there.
  I removed the hard drive and used an external case and determined that the hard drive works fine.

  Hello

  Tecra S3 supports RAID.
  In order to install Win XP RAID driver is needed!

  The RAID driver can be found on the European driver Toshiba page.
  It s a v 1.01.0005 for Win XP.

  You can include the RAID driver using nLite. This free tool allows you to include the RAID driver in the Win XP disc.
  Google for nLite for more details.

• External Toshiba HARD drive not recognized on USB 2.0 ports, but only on USB 3.0

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba drive external HARD 750 GB USB2.0/USB3.0
  Now, this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port.

  I have try on port USB2.0 computers different (desktop, laptop) but it doesn't work. The LED is the lightning, but the drive does not appear in the file Explorer.

  You have any ideas?

  Thank you

  > Now this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port

  USB 3.0 port 900mA feeds. The USB 2.0 port common provides 500mA.
  I think that the HARD drive needs more 500mA power in order to work properly.

  So if you want to use the HARD drive on USB 2.0 ports, I recommend you to use a USB Y cable which allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports

• Bay DVD replace HARD drive not recognized by Windows

  I have a 7737 with the 256 GB SSD, but I wanted more storage internally and was not too annoyed to have DVD - so I bought a caddy and replaced the optical drive with a WD Scorpio Black 750 GB drive.

  When I went into administration - computer management - disk management tools, he acknowledged that the drive was there because he told me that he needed reprogramming - so I went ahead and let him. The disc quickly disappeared from the list, and I can't do anything that he can come back.

  I tried to refresh, rescan the drives, restart (how can I confirm the BIOS recognizes the drive correctly, as the "SATA ODD', but Windows still refuses to acknowledge that he is here.) Device Manager displays only the SSD and scanning for hardware changes have no effect.

  Maybe it's a coincidence, but now my laptop seems a touch slow, especially in the graphics... and I noticed that in the Task Manager, System interrupts now takes 10 percent of time CPU on average. I can't say that I've never noticed that before. My old Samsung laptop (which has integrated graphics rather than a dedicated card, to be honest) claims system interrupts doesn't take any time at all CPU. This seems to suggest a conflict any exist, and maybe that's why the drive is not recognized?

  Because Device Manager is not see it, I can't check for updated drivers.

  Because disk management can't see, I can't format / partition / assign a drive letter.

  The BIOS does not let me do anything with the drive, go into properties or disable / re-enable, or something like that.

  Can anyone suggest what I might have missed in the configuration, or what I can do to fix this?

  Thanks in advance.

  Unfortunately, I can't find a downloadable diagnosis for your laptop. Try Seatools. Seagate website has a download, that you can use to create a CD bootable or flash player to test hard drives.

  I just want to see if a tool outside Windows can detect the drive and all the problems.

• Hard drives not recognized on Precision 650

  Hello

  I have a Dell Precision Workstation 650 2003 System. I have 4 hard drives of 250 GB on in more the 40 GB boot drive. Of data readers were on the secondary IDE channel, while the other two were on a PCI - IDE card.

  Recently, I decided to upgrade all drives in my system. For my boot drive, I have upgraded to a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST380215A HDD 80 GB 7200 RPM IDE Ultra ATA100. For my data drives, I went with 4 ST3750640A of Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 750 GB 7200 RPM Ultra ATA100 IDE drives.

  After having replaced the drives, I was able to install CentOS Linux 5.1 on the 80 GB boot drive. I also could see the 750 GB drives attached to the PCI - IDE card. However, the 750 GB drives connected to the secondary IDE channel are not recognized by the BIOS or the operating system.

  I tried the following command to get the discs to work:

  (i) update of the BIOS on the workstation to version A05. It is the latest version of the BIOS available from Dell for my system.

  (II) new IDE cables are used for the secondary IDE channel.

  (III) tried all four disks to see if any combination works.

  (IV) tried to put just a walk on the secondary channel.

  (v) tried "cable select" setting the jumpers on the drives.

  (VI) configuration of the riders ' master/slave' I tried on disks.

  (VII) tried other riders to Seagate where you put an extra jumper on two pins closest feeding on both drives.

  (VIII) tried erasing memory NVRAM using keystrokes - Alt + F, Alt + E, and then Alt + B. After reboot, the system performed the automatic IDE configuration, but couldn't detect the 750 GB drives.

  (IX) tried the IDE cable that I use for the PCI card, which is able to detect the discs correctly.

  (x) tried to connect the drives on the primary IDE channel.

  None of these things have worked. I don't want to go back to the 250 GB drives because I want more storage. Y at - it a trick of hardware/software/firmware that I missed? Is there a way I can use the 750 GB drives on my system?

  Thank you

• Equium - HARD drive not recognized in Windows XP

  I replaced the HARD drive in the laptop, because the original had a catastrophic faulure. I replaced the HARD drive correctly (as far as I can see) but when I come to re - install Windows XP HARD drive may not be recognized.

  Any ideas?

  Hi potters.

  What model of laptop you have exactly?

  It would be important to know because if you have a model that uses SATA hard drives need drivers Intel Storage Manager you can install Windows XP.

  But in this case, you should check other forum threads. You will find hundreds of discussions on installing XP on SATA hard drive.

• Satellite M70: HARD drive not recognized external - various XP error messages

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M70 and I have a Western Digital external hard drive.
  Initially, it worked great, I was able to put my large collection of music, etc. on it and run a computer off to save space on my integrated HD.

  But recently I had problems with XP not recognizing HD or be able to write in it. It appears in my computer, then disappear, often randomly when I write new files to it.
  I reformatted the hard drive to NTFS as it ran originally as FAT32.

  I updated my BIOS as well, but I'm out of ideas.

  Anyone else had similar problems with XP?

  Thank you

  Have you thought about external HARD drive failure?
  Perhaps failure of HARD drive and, therefore, it cannot be recognized correctly.

• Satellite M30-841 - large hard drive not recognized

  HY guys,.

  First of all, I want to say hello, because this is my first post in this forum. Merry Christmas as well!

  I am writing because I bought a 160 GB 2hard disk to replace my old 60 GB. When I troed to install it, I saw that it recognizes just 128 GB which, according to my research, is due to the LBA 48 bit not supported on my laptop (Satellite M30-841).

  I tried to everythingmentioned:
  -J' have flash Bios o update the 1.70 (last available driver toshiba Web site)
  -J' changed the downloaded XP SP3 and I changed the registry to install a key DWORD EnableBigLba.

  However, she still recognizes only 128 GB. I'm losing hope to install the new hard drive. Anyone of you has a suggestion that I should try?

  I realized that I should update the driver of my motherboard, but I don't know where they are, if there is (I don't even know the name of it, despite the use of everest - which shows DMI.

  Am I missing something?

  Thank you very much

  Icemaster

  Look, man.
  The HARD disk controller seems to support the 28-bit LBA.
  The disk controllers HARD supporting the 28-bit LBA address max 128 GB HDD.
  Controllers HDD support 48-bit LBA address bigger hard drives.
  But this is a physical limitation and you will not resolve this update anything.

  In your case, there is nothing to see

• Second Hard Drive not recognized / climb (but it IS listed in the Device Manager)

  I have a HP Compaq DC7800 convertible mini tower running than Win 7 Pro 64-bit

  I installed a second hard drive, and while I can see listed in the Device Manager, it is not mounted.

  That is to say, it is not in the computer > field at all.

  The second hard drive is a Hitachi HDT721032SLA360 ATA Device

  Under the hardware ID, it is said: IDE\DiskHitachi_HDT721032SLA360___ST2OA38E

  I thought it was a driver problem. Device Manager indicates that it uses the Microsoft 6.1.7600.16385 driver.

  I can't find a Hitachi driver for this player. My understanding was that this drive would NOT need drivers.

  I have it in the plug of P5 (I think it is P5, it's at the end of the cable with the primary hard drive) and I have a data cable sata from the sata port on the rear of the disc in the slot sata on the motherboard next to the slot in the place where the main in drive is plugged.

  The only sites that list the drivers for this drive are all spam (thanks, google) sites.

  What I have to change something in my Bios?

  Thanks in advance.

  If the drive is listed in the device but not 'computer' Manager, it must be mounted or a new volume must be created. Please see HP - partitioning and names of hard drives (Windows 7) for more information on using the Windows Disk Management Console.

• 3 50 PX1394U external hard drive not recognized

  I recently bought the external hard drive, Toshiba PX1394U 3 50. I followed the instructions for the installation and everything went as planned either he found material etc. and returned with the message of successful installation.

  However, when I go in my computer that there should be an icon for the external hard drive and it does not exist.

  I saw the thread, recommending using REGEN, but this has no effect on the problem - the icon still does not appear in my computer.

  I use a laptop computer from a different manufacture running Windows XP and all updates are loaded.

  I also had the same problem when loading on my desk.

  Any ideas?

  If you get the message installation was successful, you should find the HARD disk in disk management.
  Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > disk management

  Maybe you first create a partition or format, but normally you will see players all recognized.

• TOSHIBA StorE Art 2 TB external hard drive not recognized by HP Elite /Win7

  I have a new HP Elite desktop computer running Windows 7 Home Edition:
  A few months ago, I bought a Toshiba Store Art HDD Ext 2 to, which until today has worked well. Today, I started the PC in the morning (with no updates of Windows or other software) to find that he would recognize is no longer the Toshiba hard drive. He always recognizes the WD drives and SimpleTech drives when they are plugged. All external drives are powered separately and do not rely on the power of USB.

  I tried the Art Store on other PC and it works fine. I tried to change the cables, the cable works on other players (and other cables will not do this work of Art store). I tried several ports USB 2 on the PC, with no luck * (but all the ports work with other readers).

  I try verified Drvivers of COMPUTERS and MANAGING disks. There is no sign of the disk (not defective disc), it is simply not there at all.

  I searched on the web - try a variety of techniques (disconnect the power PC) and much more. No luck.

  PC specifications are:
  Operating system
  MS Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit SP1
  CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT
  Intel Core i3 530 2.93 GHz 30 ° c.
  Technology of 32nm Clarkdale
  RAM

  Works well with all other readers. and it worked with Toshiba until this morning.

  Clues?

  Thank you

  I put t really know what can be the problem.
  If everything worked a few days previously, first try to make back the OS using System Restore tool just to see if this will help.
