• Toshiba 500 GB external HARD drive is no longer detected - after only 1 hour

  Hey,.

  I finally got my Toshiba 500 GB external hard drive delivered today. I had no problem setting up and to turn my laptop on, it immediately recognized and I started to transfer things for her.

  However, I accidentally stood on the USB cable to the HARD drive and disconnected. I plugged it in, but my computer did not recognize.

  Nothing I've tried has worked, always, the laptop does not recognize the hard drive.

  Please help, I've only had the one hour thing, and it already does not work! I really hope that I have not only lost £56...

  All advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.

  NEW: My father just tried plugging the HARD drive in the desktop PC is on the ground, and as soon as the USB when it is in the port, you stop the computer... causing him to lose a lot of important business email, he wrote. It starts the computer, the USB and you stop again... and this has happened 3 times until he gave up. What on Earth is wrong with this thing? I've never heard of a USB cable, stop a computer permanently, or a hard drive that does more after an hour of use...

  The USB port on the HARD drive may have been damaged and may be causing the PC detect a short power.

  You can try another USB cable? If it is not the cable, then the HARD drive should be sent to a Service Center for repair or replacement.

• Toshiba ph3100u-1exb external Hard Drive will not stay On

  Hi all.

  I recently bought a Toshiba ph3100u-1exb 1.0 TB external hard drive. It works fine, but the problem that I am running is that it does not stay on for more than a few minutes. I don't know that its a kind of function, but if there is a way to turn it off, energy saving, I would have the accessible reader at all times, I use the information stored on it a little.

  When he died, I can always press the power button to bring it up, but I would like to have it on all the time. Is it at all possible to do? A setting on the drive, or even within Windows?

  I have the player hooked up through a USB cable, this PC is a little older and does not use for hard drives-eSATA cables.

  Hello

  In my opinion, the HARD drive must be checked with different computers and different OS (Vista, Win 7, Win XP). If the external HARD disk doesn't work using different systems and computers then it s definitely a HARD drive problem.

  I have 2 different external drives a HARD drive died and I had to replace it.
  In my opinion, if a HARD drive starts to malfunction then it s mostly a hardware related issue and there is nothing to replace the defective drive

• Clicking on Toshiba 1 TB external hard drive

  Bought my external hard drive Toshiba Canvio black 1 TB in July, and a few days ago I heard / felt continuous clicking. I've been more than prudent with my drive, never give up, tilting ever and never disconnect when the light flashes. Somehow I could possibly revive? Sometimes after I have unplug it and plug it back, there is no clicking for an hour and my files are readable, but then he starts up with the clicking again

  Hello

  You should be troubled if the HARD drive starts making strange noises.
  It could be a first sign of a HARD disk crash.
  On the other hand, my HARD drive clicks also but not always it happens sporadically
  I couldn't find a reason for this, but I created some backups to be on the safe side.

  I think that you must back up the data too.

• Toshiba 320 GB external HARD drive all of a sudden think this is my 160 GB drive!

  PC: Toshiba Satellite A305D-S6848
  Accessories: Toshiba 320 GB USB external hard drive; MODEL: HDDR320E03X
  Toshiba 160 GB USB external hard drive;
  MODEL: HDDR160E03X

  The other day I started my laptop with these two drives already connected. Suddenly, my 320 USB drive, that's half full of music and video, insists that it is the only capacity of 160 GB and if it is full but shows no files.

  I already tried to run diskcheck... nothing helps... Suggestions to recover the date on this drive because it is only a few weeks old and has all of this information on this subject.

  Thanx

  It works on another PC? Maybe the user has installed a bad USB driver or something.

  If this does not work on another PC, you can try data recovery tools. Google search for "data recovery utility.

  That's the problem with the file system of your external hard drive,
  Check your external hard drive file system.
  -Open my computer
  -Right-click on your external hard drive
  -Select Properties
  -written to see if it is the file system FAT32 or below this (FAT or FAT16)
  you will need to format it in NTFS. Why? I'll explain later.
  -to format your external hard drive, right click on the external hard drive.
  -Select format
  -in the file system drop-down menu, select NTFS
  -Choose the quick format
  -Press OK

  After the process is finished, you can now copy the file.

  EXPLANATION:
  This happens because the FAT family of file system have the 4 GB limit only (if I'm not mistaken) in the 1 file size.
  NTFS have much higher than that, but I forgot how big it can manage 1 file. ^. ^
  but it will be far from 8 GB.

• Toshiba 320 GB external HARD drive make my very slow computer

  Hello.

  I bought this product a few weeks ago now, and every time I use it, it makes my computer go tp so slow to the point where I can't actually do something on this subject, due to the fact that everything becomes inadmissible. Also, the rate at which I transfer files to it is also very slow. Any ideas why and what I can do to speed things up a bit?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  You suggested that the laptop becomes slowly during the use of the external HARD drive.
  I guess that transfer you a data from the HARD drive internal to the external USB HDD.
  I think that it s not very rare, that the laptop runs slowly during the transmission of the data.
  It depands on the program that runs in the context of the operating system.

  I put t know which interface you use USB2 or USB only, but data transfer depends on the interface.

• Toshiba 1 TB usb 3.5 "external hard drive will not format

  Hi all, my Toshiba 1 TB external HARD drive has just arrived, was in FAT32 so told to format it. Started to format it in Windows Vista when all of a sudden the pc froze so he didn't finish. Now it doesn't let me format at all or to access. I tried to do outside of windows, but not joy. Is there a way I can work around this problem and it back on track? The HARD drive seems fine towers etc but leaves me any access. It shows in my computer.

  If I understand you as soon as the HARD drive is connected it is listed in Windows Explorer.
  What happen when you try to access it? Is there an error message?

• 320 gb External Hard Drive - now detected as Cypress device

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba 320 GB external hard drive and it seems to have developed a problem. Instead of being detected correctly when I turn on the drive Windows tell me that his device detected a "Cypress AT2LP RC42" and he wants to install software for it (which it does not so find).

  I know that this isn't just the OS because I have two OS on my machine and while it used to work fine on the two I now get the same behavior on them. Other that the drive does not appear in "My Computer" or in the "Disk management" part of the "Computer management" console

  Anyone know how to fix this?

  I must also say that I had only this when I got a 160 GB Toshiba drive.

  Colin

  I googled around, and it seems that you really need a driver for this external hard drive to HARD drive. You should check the Web site of Cypress.

  The other option is to download the DriverWizard Windriver jungo.com 8.0. This application creates .inf files. Cypress AT2LP RC42 source code should be integrated.
  For EXAMPLE, you can create a clean driver .inf file. Try to install it on your device.
