The color of the SATA cables is important?

Hello

Can someone tell me if the color of the SATA data cables is important?

I have a new Dell Vostro 270 MT and I took an old HDD from my old PC and installed in a new.  The new machine is a piece of spare SATA data cable so I took one of the old machine.  On both computers, data cables were blue to connect HARD drive and orange to connect to the DVD player.

I had to use the orange wire from the old machine because the blue was not long enough.  Everything seems fine, the old HDD works well in the new machine.

I don't see anything on the internet that implies that there could be a difference.  It seemed just strange that Dell use the same color scheme on two different models several years apart.  My concern is that in ignorance, I do something stupid.

Anyone can shed some light on this?  Thank you.

Hi Jackdaw13,

SATA cables are available in different colours (red, blue, orange). Dell uses orange and blue as the standard for most systems.

From a technical point of view, there is no difference and no matter what color they are. The functionality remains the same for each of them.

  • Xw8200: Error on Boot to Sata cable

    During startup, the message begins by "mistake of the Sata cable 1796" and indicates the color of the cable and will there be a performance issue. " I have four hard drives and a player.  Anyway, I changed the layout of the insert and what ever I do the mistake of 1796.  In fact, I unplugged all the cables except for the main boot drive - sata and I get error 1796.  And Yes, the Bios is being updated - this machine, Windows 7 Pro works with 32 GB of memory.

    I would like to ignore the message, but I keep losing after starting my G: drive. In fact occasionally when the system starts to run a chkdsk on drive G. No bump in the road. However I'll end by time G drive missing. I then need to reboot to recover the disk G. I ran Chkdsk and SCP.

    Indeed drive G (WD 1 TB), I downloaded the WD Diag utility. All Western Digital drives, past and G drive I even ran the trial extended - and it happened.

    My conclusion is therefore that I defintely need address this situation of cable - and free of any error starting 1796 future. Is there a cure?

    Thank you!

    In several places, I found that the error occurs when the SATA ports are missing something on SATA (0) or SATA (1)

  • When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

    When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

    This happens even with pictures taken on another device, not just mine.  My daughter told me that the phone fell recently.  The yellow streak isn't nowhere elsewhere on the laptop, right on the photos in LR.

    It happens when you import new images. This pourrait indicate that the sector where the pictures are copied to is damaged. But it could be a faulty card reader or a bad cable if you connect the camera directly to the computer. It's a hardware problem. Your challenge is to figure out where this problem.

  • Color scheme changing based whenever I plug in the power cable

    Hi, recently I have a very annoying problem.

    Whenever I plug or on the power cable the entire screen "blinks" a few times, shows a ToolTip really fast (I caught with a print screen and it says: "the color scheme was changed to Windows 7 Basic.) A running program is not compatible with certain Visual elements of Windows. Click here for more information. ("I can't click as it closes quickly) and then the screen is back to normal.

    Well, it's kind of normal. Open windows are becoming fully optimized not and if I'm on youtube then the video becomes really small, but if I reduce the window and open it again then it's good.

    It wasn't really a problem for me until yesterday when it happens again and became a black chrome, which has been opened until I plugged in the cable, and it took a few minutes before it returned to normal (unless I closed and opened again).

    I tried already in the system-> performance options properties to select the 'Adjust to improve the appearance"and it did not work.

    Unfortunately, I see no option here to post a screenshot of that.

    In any case, I have HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    I have enough disk space in my computer and the programs that are open, when I do this are usually office (word or excel for most) and chrome.

    What can I do to fix this annoying problem?

    Try these:

    1 make sure that your graphics driver is up to date. Check the HP website for the latest drivers.

    2. make sure that the power plan that you use is not set to Power Saver. To check, go to Control Panel > system and security > Power Options.

    3. make sure that your computer has enough memory when you unplug the power cable. To check, do a right-click the taskbar, click Task Manager, and under the performance tab, verify the amount of memory is used. If it is more than 70%, you are running low on memory. Try closing some programs and then see if the problem persists.

    4. run the Aero troubleshooter. See this link for instructions: Open the Aero Troubleshooter.

  • Cannot import pictures using the USB cable

    I have a Canon 5 d Mark III and LR 4.3. I normally import pictures using a card reader see However, I'm on vacation and have only the USB cable that connects the camera to my Macbook Pro. I used it successfully in the past to import photos, but I am now getting the following error:

    2013-03-09_08-34-04.jpeg

    I get this if I select one or more photos (there are about 195 on the map right now).

    Any ideas?

    Often, this error message means that LR cannot write the file to the location you're trying to move/copy it to, usually because your permissions to the folder or drive do not allow writing. Also, make sure that you have property ot the disk/folder.

  • Toshiba NB550-111 - no connection if the LAN cable is more than 2 metres

    Hello

    My newly purchased Toshiba NB550-111(Windows 7 Starter Service Pack 1) has problems with the LAN card.
    If the LAN cable is more than 2 meters, no relation to Allied Telesyn switch (no indicator led on the switch, 2 other desktop computers already connected). I tried not to connect in a different port (one used previously by one of desktop computers), no connection. I tried with 3 cables, still no results.

    Cables (cat5E, so important) have been tested OK before with a cable Tester, and I use both of them without any problem with another 2 desktop computers at home. I set another cable (5 m long, newly purchased) and tested for connectivity. It works very well with the other two offices, no results with the netbook. I tried with adapter it works, I disabled ' energy efficient ethernet "NIC, still no connection properties page. It only connects if the cable is less than 2 meters. I tried to connect the netbook directly to the DSL router, still no connection with a longer cable.

    The device is reported by windows as work very well, and the test Toshiba utility ends there is no problem. Windows I configured in the Control Panel, the Plan balanced for maximum performance in the power options, still no results.
    Any ideas, please?

    The answer to your questions is, is not the motherboard that is causing your problem.  Win 7 does not support hard drives more than 2 TB.  Here's a guide that will tell you what you need to know.

  • PXI-6509 does not attach to the ribbon cable screw

    My threaded spacers on the connector of the PXI - 6509 100 i/o pins are not compatible with screwdowns that come with all the cables R1005050 Ribbon: either end threading is too large or the ribbon cable clamping thread is too small.  In any case, I can not connect it and wonder if it's vital for the current performance of ground or the shielding of the reasons?  I received my material in the calendar from June-August 2008, if it's important.

    Fluffums-

    Thanks for posting your question on the forums of NOR. It is not necessary to have your clamping of cables connected to the pins of the PXI-6509. The screwdowns are mainly here to make sure that your cable is connected to your device. Currently, I don't have my cable fixed in my PCI due to the fact that I'm constantly change hardware autour. I hope this helps.

  • Can I use the SATA port connected to an optical drive to plug in a hard drive?

    I have a Pavilion e9270t desktop, Win7 Pro SP1, and I want to connect 3 HARD drive to the motherboard. Can I do this? Can I use the SATA port connected to an optical drive to plug in a hard drive?

    Thanks, CHemming

    CHemming,

    I've not seen UEIF support in the existing BIOS.

    If your demand on a 3T led, re - consider a maximum of 2 T.

    If you ask to have 3 hard disks, then you can do it without harassing the present cable of CD.

    The cage of your system hard disk will support 3 hard disks. Manual upgrade service

    All you need are the SATA data and power cables. Your Board has 4 SATA data ports.

    When you report back after inspecting your system for SATA power cables, I will move the cables and adapters, if necessary.

  • HP LJ CP5525 won't boot if the network cable is connected.

    Hello everyone, I have a client who brought me a CP5525 for repair with an unusual problem.  The machine will not get past the initialization stage if the network cable is connected.  If the network cable is removed, the machine comes to ready.  Initially, I suspected a trainer Board bad, but instead, I get the same problem.  With the network cable is connected, the machine will not get past the initialization stage.  I know I'm the cable is good I can plug another printer in there and it works fine.  The trainer has a green light on the port of the network adapter when the cable is connected, the led "smiley face" is on the balance and the "heartbeat" light flashes twice and pauses, then blinks twice again and continues to do so, that everything seems normal.  In addition, while the machine is still being initialized, I can press the test button on the print engine and it prints a test page to the normal search.  I don't know if I should just let the machine only and see if it boots never completely, but no idea how long I have to wait, I left longer than 10 minutes and it is not always initialize.  If I unplug the network cable and allow the machine to go ready I can print a log of events and it shows no errors.  Of course, it is used as a network printer, so there need to be ready with a NETWORK cable.  At this point I have no idea what my next step should be to help or ideas would be appreciated.

    I left the nic cable disconnected and allowed the printer to come ready.  Then, I plugged the network cable and tried to install the printer on my network local test.  I ping the printer and he answers, I can't install the printer normally, but it does not print a test page.  When he goes to print the test page the printer winds up as if she warms to print, but then rolls down.  Meanwhile, the port of the network card on the machine poster in green and yellow flashing as if it receives information of the network, but there is no change on the screen and the led lights on the front panel show no change.  Finally, the print job expires and shows that printing does not.  If I try to print from microsoft word or notepad saying, I get the same symptoms.  This happens with the new Council of trainer and the original one.

    Here in the building, we have an another CP5525 installed as a network printer that works very well, I went and printed its configuration and settings page and compared to the printer, I'm working on and they are identical, with the exception of IP addresses of course.  At this point, I have the printer pushed to the side until I can get some ideas of what we must look at the next and I worked on other printers and used this same nic cable to test these machines and they print very well so I know that the problem is related to this printer.  I just need some ideas of what we seek to the next.  I removed the back cover and looked for loose cables and so on.  These machines are newer than most of the equipment that I service so I don't have any spare part for them so I can't start just you order parts at random just to Exchange and see what happens, so if anyone has an idea, I would be very grateful.  The machine is out of warranty at this stage.  Apparently, he was never installed and was sitting on the shelf for the past two years and tried to install it a few weeks ago.

    Two points here. First you move the hard drive to the new trainers, so if the hard drive is the problem you can not say. You have to 'borrow' a hard drive to an another base printer if you have another of the same model. Second by assigning the same network address of the printer if there is a problem with the print server on the base or the driver you are using is bad no way to tell. As I said in my post, you need to isolate your network printer and need to load on a virgin machine where you use any driver laser jet color printer that is built into the operating system, such as the printer color laserjet 5500. My gut tells me the problem is with the network and using the crossover cable confirm this. The fact that the printer is ready and you can print without the cable connected network tells me this. Thing that you can do with the printer NOT connected to the network, ping the ip address. It is possible that some other piece of equipment on the network took somehow this ip address and causes all sorts of havoc with your problem.  Now regarding the update of the firmware.  I'm sure that you have a computer at home that does not restrict the usb port.  Just take a USB key to your computer at home and put a picture of the ORL file on the USB at home and bring to the office and just that insert the drive into the USB printers and turn on the printer and it should ask if you want to load the updated file.  Either way, which base?  I'm retired U.S. Army more than 20 years ago.

    Do not forget that this upgrade to Windows 7 now.  Thank you

    My best guess, not knowing what updates you have loaded, would be that you got a video update from Microsoft that may not be 100% compatible with your laptop.  I would go to the manufacturer website and download the latest video drivers for your laptop and install them according to the manufacturer's suggestions.

    Help me please

    A few days before, after upgrading to windows 7 from Vista.  I got my laptop connected to my 47 inch Phillips with HDMI and was doing great.  The next day there was significant (about 40 of them, hardly some I'm sure) updates of microsoft; my laptop kept reset rear to decrease the resolution after the system has rebooted, instead of the 1920 x 1200 I usually.

    Anyway, at this point on whenever I plug the HDMI Cable my computer screen making mobile curtains blackout and nothing he will answer to display anything...  I had to unplug the cable and reset it réinitialisez_(: (afin d'obtenir l'écran d' ordinateur portablepour)  If I let the plugins of HDMI cable, it will be blackout after it surging, the ms logo.

    Please help me.  Below you will find all the info about my M17x so-called:(honnêtement, n'achetez pas d'ordinateur portable Alienware.)  This thing cost me 5 k and there was nothing else to headaches.  He is a year old and I have no warranty left, so I must rely on the computer guru like you to help me.  Thanks again for the help.
