The reorganization of several hard drives in customers?
Hi again. I'm under VMware 6.5.1 Windows XP host, Linux comments.
I have several VMware "virtual hard drives" in my comments.
There seems to be no UI within VMware to establish the order of in that these disks are visible. When I create and delete records over time, the order gets randomly mixed around. This causes problems with the start of Linux.
I can manually edit the GRUB file and fdisk, but it is a pain,
as it must be repeated for each guest and wonder if there is a
best way.
If the VMware UI to edit the comments configuration had a 'Move up' and 'Move down' button for devices, it would be great! It would be useful to establish the order of hard drives, and other devices such as Ethernet cards.
As a feature of the wishlist, it would be nice to have a way to specify where each IDE drive appears to. Main master primary slave, second master, secondary slave. Similarly, the SCSI drives should allow me set the device ID.
Yes, there is a current solution for this limitation, which will allow me to rearrange the order in which records are visible in the comments?
Thank you!
Josh
Two ways to Rome...
through GUI: select the disc in question in the form "Edit virtual hardware" - click on advanced - the value of the scsi0.0 device node. or else - there is a drop-down list for this operations
by editing the vmx file: adjust the entries in the vmx manually - file make sure you do not change the device for the boot disk node

HP dv9000 vista laptop won't start. Attempt to restore repair result several times cannot be made online. BIOS ran diagnostics, everything was good except the hard disk, hd chk result: replace the hard drive. F11 entered to access advanced hp Recovery Manager options tempted towards the top of the entire disk, all files show while listing to back up, attached to my external hard drive current over the back with success. Plugged external on another laptop, new files since the previous backup are no where. Should I buy a new external hard drive and repeat the backup via Recovery Manager Advanced Options or should I remove the internal hard disk and insert it into a case and apply in usb on another laptop to view the files. I know when my computer crashed, I had too many windows/tabs open and too much process and tried to interrupt a process and I confused his little brain and now he has Alzheimer's disease. I am freaked because I'll lose everything 2012 including some very important documents and about 50 000 pictures HD (yes I learned my lesson backup!) I am in crisis mode because I recently became sick and my photos and documents is vital for my next year of chemotherapy and radiation. Please advice are extremely appreciated. Thank you
Hello
This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.
I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.
It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.
Saving your files:
You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.
Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.
See you soon.

I have all of my music stored on an external hard drive. On my old iMac, I have iTunes with all the songs on this hard drive organized or recognized as I like, with comments and play lists and track/song names and album names. How can I transfer iTunes as it is to the old iMac to the new MacMini while leaving the actual files of the song (> 2.5 to) on the external hard drive? In short, I want the old iTunes on my new computer, but the files of the song in the current HD thank you so much.
(2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM 20 "iMac; 2014 new Mac Mini)
Hmmm... Never tried, but I "think" it should work. The reader will need to named exactly something on the new computer, as it was on the old.
1. on the old computer, go to {user folder} / music/iTunes and move the files on the external hard drive.
2. on the new computer in iTunes, go to Preferences > advanced and not select "copy of the file to the iTunes Media folder.
3. always in this same window under "iTunes Media folder location", click on change. Now select the location on the external hard drive, you have moved the files too.

Cannot save files from the iMac on external hard drive
Hello. I recently bought an iMac 27 inches 5 k retina and I can't save files to the iMac on my external hard drive, which is a 1 to Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex. I formatted the hard drive before, so I can use it on Mac and PC. It works fine with my Macbook Pro. But not on my iMac. What could be the problem and how can I solve this problem? I don't want the hassle of the backup of my hard drive and reformatting, because there a lot of files already on it. Help, please
Pray tell what is the format?
What happens when you try to copy files?
Mac can read but cannot write to NTFS without special software.

The maximum size of HARD drive the BIOS sees in Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series systems
I want to switch the HARD disk in my Satellite Pro 4340. I know the 4200 and 4300 SP series can take at least a 20 GB HARD drive that I've already updated a SP4270 and SP4280 drives from 20GB already.
I did a search on assignments earlier re. Satellite Pro 4200 and computers portable 4300 series as various other contributors of this forum had already asked this question. A respondent suggested that they had installed a 60 GB HARD disk without problem.
Someone at - it else mounted a big HARD drive (or more even) in these notebooks series 4200 and 4300 and managed to do work OK and had the BIOS to recognize the total size of the HARD drive?
What is the largest swap HDD that someone did with success on these machines of 4200/4300?
Unfortunately, you will not be able to find accurate information about it. All you can find are reports from other users. I am really interested about other views.
By the way: 60 GB HARD drive is not sufficient for you?

best way to transfer photos from the iMac on external hard drive
best way to transfer photos from the iMac on external hard drive
If you are mobile loose photo files, drag them in here and if you are going to be removed from the inside, keep a copy on a second disc.
If you move an iPhoto, Aperture, or photo library, make sure that the external hard drive contains a volume to the Mac OS Extended format, drag the library there, launch the application with the key Option key, choose it, confirm that it works and if you are going to be remove from the inside, keep a copy of it on a second disc.

Satellite 2410 won't see the new 250 GB hard drive
I am trying to upgrade the Toshiba 30 GB hard drive that came with the unit to a Western Digital Scorpio Blue 250 GB EIDE drive.
I get out the swap the 30 GB to 250 GB put in a bootable XP SP3 CD version and nothing - no sign that power came to training.
The CDROM is trying to write files on the hard disk, but nothing happens.Same thing happens when I try to use the pack of 3 CD of Toshiba or the Norton Ghost recovery CD.
The computer does not see the drive. Put the old 30 GB drive and it starts right now.My BIOS settings show set up for EIDE and boot from the CDROM. What I'm missing?
Hello
It seems that the BIOS does not recognize the new HARD drive, I suppose that it s too big
Satellite 2410 series is old and I guess that it will not support larger 120 GB HARD drive because of the 28-bit LBA sSo try with the smallest HARD drive like 80 or 100 GB.
Greetings

How do we install the second install second hard drive p6-2118? Do I need an additional framework?
I came with a couple of brackets that I can mount on each side of the installed hard drive. Then hang the second disc of their share. I think that it works well and enough space for cooling. Thank you for your response.

Equium L20-197 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive
Hi all
I recently bought an Equium L20-197 and I thought to install a larger HARD drive.
I wanted to know what the maximum size of HARD drive that can be installed on an Equium L20-197 (I guess it's 120 GB, as it is on the L20-187 but I'm not 100% sure)I have also been seaching for the IDE drives and found a list of sites who have PATA, ATA100 etc. are also the IDE drives? (I checked the wiki and articles all point Yes, but a little more confirmation would not hurt)
I was also wondering if the HARD drive I install must be brand toshiba (or if it even makes a difference).
Thanking you in advance for any help you can provide.
KHello
Equium L20 is very similar to the Satellite L20.
Search here in the forum for similar issues. If you want to use the advanced search option, you will find a few useful headings.I know, it's that you can use the 40 GB, 60 GB, 80 GB and 100 GB 2.5 IDE HARD drive supporting the UDMA100
Good bye

My default hard disk is almost full and I plan to update. What is the maximum size that this model could overcome? Very well is 2-3 to?
Another question.
I replaced my optical drive to a box with a 250 GB SSD HARD drive inside. I installed my new operating system here, and makes the default boot drive. The default value of HARD drive that comes with the laptop is my backup drive. This is configured by okay?
or
Do I have to put my SSD on the default HARD drive space and put my 2 to/3 TB harddrive on the caddy for maximum performance?
Hello
1. in theory, you can get 2 TB or TB but 1 TB has better peformance.
2. you cannot boot from the caddy. My suggestion: use for normal Bay and 2 TB SSDS in the caddy. You both what you want.
3. as (2) above.
Kind regards.

No, at least not by us.
Open a hard drive for some reason any at all can be done in special
laboratory as parameters. Something else will destroy the disk.There are companies trying to recover data from broken disks,
and they are sometimes successful. And who knows, maybe they
sometimes use methods such as what you describe.But if you plan to use such a company, know what they
are all very expensive. It does not for most people.For the future, if you have files you want to be sure are not
lost, make sure to have in place a backup procedure on a regular basis the

Hello
Whenever I have to play the game, I have to insert the disc 2 in my DVD ROM despite installing the game on my hard drive.Can someone help me with a cure for this (IE run the game without the CD?) I can run Microsoft Flight simulator without inserting the DVD in my DVD-rom.original title: query on Microsoft Train Simulator 2001
I suspect that the game has Digital Rights Management in there (i.e., copy protection) and it checks for you ensure that you physically have the disc so that he knows that you are not a thief. Many providers of game assumes that you are a thief and you prove that you're not demanding that the disc is in the DVD player when the game takes place. What I do is to use a program like Alcohol 52%, a free program that can make a copy of a DVD/CD and include in the image copy protection so that you can use a DVD player virtual to mount the image file instead of having the real DVD mounted in a real drive.
