Toshiba STOR. E basics 1 TB - extremely slow

Hello

I recently bought this Toshiba STOR. E basics 1 TB USB 3.0 HDTB110EK3BA and it's extremely slow, taking already about 48 h for a copy of less than 100 GB.
I am formatting it Mac Os more and using a Mac Book Pro with USB3

Why is this happening?

Thank you
BR / Javi

Why data transfer is slow?
Who knows there are several reasons for this, you will need to check some things just to get a response for this

Fact is that this HARD drive supports the USB 3.0 standard.
This means that the HARD disk works with USB 3.0 performance (~ 130 MB/s)

Still is it HARD USB 3.0 drive needs more energy than the common USB 2.0 HDD.
900mA needs of USB 3.0, USB 2.0 HARD drive must 500mA
That is why its recommended to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports using the USB Y cable.

However the speed of data transmission can be limited to the laptop (chipset).
Maybe your internal HARD drive provides more performance for transmitting data to the external HARD drive.

I read some tests on this HARD drive, and many users got the great performance.
With the help of USB 2.0 ports: 31.8 MB/sec in writing; 31.5 MB/s read
using USB 3.0 ports: 105,45 MB/sec in writing; 108,89 MB/s read

I recommend you install Disk as ATTO Benchmark tools to check performance using another computer.

  • Toshiba Stor.E Basics 2.5 ": how to get rid of the folder lang

    Hey there.

    So I have this external hard drive 500 GB Toshiba Stor.E Basics 2.5 " , bought a year in Italy.
    I use it on a MacBook with a few apps, so it works perfectly well.

    But the thing is there is this "lang" folderwith a subfolder of separate for each language (more a subfolder "resources"), which takes almost 28 GB of storage capacity, although it is completely empty. When I try to delete it, it doesn't let me, I get a message "file X is used" (where 'X' represents the subfolders).

    So I would like to know if there is a way to get rid of this file, as 28 GB are not exactly redundant.

    Thanks in advance! =)

    According to the disc specification page HARD (basic Stor.E); the quick start guide, as well as operating manuals was preinstalled.
    But I doubt that these documents should 28 GB of storage. So I think that some of your applications created the mentioned language folder, including subfolders.

    Usually, you must close the application that uses the files so you can easily remove the single folder. But in some cases, it may not be clear which program or a background process has locked a file or a folder.
    In this case, you can use a software free ware / tools to unlock the stubborn folder to change or remove.

    The software (for windows) called Unlocker is able to unlock the file, and then you could remove it properly.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the Toshiba STOR. E BASICS - BLACK 2.5 specifications page "-1.5 to provides no details on the controller, but in my view the inside of the box, you will find a common SATA 2.5 which is connected to a controller HDD USB SATA."

  • Stor.e Basics 1 TB USB3.0 & 2.0 transfer speed slow drive HARD Portable on Windows7

    Hello, I recently bought a couple of these bases Stor.e 1 TB USB3.0 & 2.0 HDD Portable of pcworld, bought 2 drives good previous experience, but now I think that because this is a new batch of discs (made in June 2012, instead of dec 2011 my last work entirely without problem stor.e Basics portable HARD drive) I now have the problem of slow start & stop/pause when the transfer of large files medium size 2GBs to 5GBs each (or more) of my Windows 7 laptop to laptop HARD drive using the USB 2.0 standard.

    the previous player without problem (made in Dec 2011), when the file transfer starts the application used to start at about 40 MB/s then falls to about 30 MB/s and stabilize all about this speed, these lots of June 2012 starts slot 20MB / s and falls below 5 MB / s.

    but that is not the big problem, the big problem is now transfer is in pause/stop and departure, transfer of a few seconds, then stopped for 10-20 seconds and agains starts, then stops / pauses, so used to take the couple minutes portable portable HARD drive transfer a file of 4 GB, but now takes ages (7-8 minutes or more) because of the slow speed and stop/pause & start the problem.

    I haven't changed anything on my laptop Windows7 and other drives of 1 TB per other manufacturers/brands are fine, so that means Toshiba must have changed some hardware or software/firmware of the player, lastest new problems, new batch, batch previous everything was fine.

    At first I thought it was just 1 player that could be the problem, but now readers have tested and both have the same problem. Oddly enough if the disc seems to be ok/normal when I transfer on my Vista laptop, which is usually always slower when trasnfering over the laptop Windows 7, Vista typically files transfers to nearly 20 MB/s while Windows 7 to about 30 MB/s. But now the two Toshiba drives during the transfer on the Windows 7 laptop, slower starts (compared to the Dec2011 lot), and then descends slot 5 Mbps, then stops / pauses, then starts the process repeated several times, and then finally completed the transfer.

    Also 'time remaining' bit in "file transfer popup", told me how much minutes & seconds to transfer, almost immediately (usually less than 5 seconds) when I start the transfer, but now if I transfer a big'ish of the file for example 2 GB + 'time remaining' says 'Calculation' for a while (10to20 seconds or more), then finally tells me the time remaining. So everything is just much slower compared to before.

    Anyone know what is the cause of problems in promoting news readers? necessary updates?

    > anyone know what is the cause of problems in promoting news readers? necessary updates? Thank you

    Not sure if I can help, but have you tried to format the external DRIVE to NTFS drive?
    Try to do this.

    But generally the start & stop/pause should not appear when transferring large files so possibly it could be a HARD drive problem. Its odd that this happens with both hard drives, but a HARD disk problem could also be possible.

  • TOSHIBA StorE Basics 750Go - Partition problems

    Hello

    I hope you can help me or point me in the right direction.

    I bought this Toshiba StorE Basics 750Go v63700-b part number: hdtb107ek3aa a few days ago.
    When I plugged into my USB port it came right after Windows & installed the necessary drivers.
    I copied then over 200 GB of information.
    Everything worked very well.

    My daughter was so taken and plugged into his iMac and she said Yes when Timje machine was asked if it was ok to initialize the disk. Well, she realized her mistake about 10 sec in the process.

    So here's the question. Time machine wrote a new partition table on the disk, ergo not more fat or grease backup.

    I'm trying to find out what was the preinstalled configuration partition of the drive when it is plugged. That way I can at least fix the partition table entries, type, size and so on. This will allow me to then use the recovery software to get the files.

    I hope you know where I can find this information.

    Kind regards

    Momentum

    You talk about this HARD drive externally. Right?
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/discontinued-products/hdtb107ek3aa/

    Hmm, I guess it could be the NTFS file format.

    But I m not very well if you'll be able to save the data after the file format changes.

  • app store is extremely slow

    Hello guys.

    I use a College LAN, that gives me speeds of about 8 to 15 Mbps. However, the app store seems extremely slow when downloading. For example, I was freely upgraded to windows 8.1 and it appears that a 3.62 GB file should be downloaded. However more that had spent an hour and always download might not exceed more than 2%. Y at - it a remedy to fix the problem?

    Hi Abhishek,

    It's problem can occur if there is decline in the speed of the internet, or if the Windows store settings are corrupt.

    1. have you checked the Internet speed when this problem occurred? (It's just to make sure that your Internet connection works fine at this instance)

    2. What is the make and model of computer?

    Cancel download of current Windows 8.1, to do this, refer to the steps below:

    a. press on Win key + R key to bring up the run button, and then type the following command.

    MS-windows-store: installprogress

    b. click on Cancel.

    Perform the following steps and check if you can switch to Windows 8.1:

    Step 1: Disconnect all unnecessary external devices connected to the computer (except the mouse and keyboard).

    Step 2: Install all available updates.

    Step 3: If you use a third-party antivirus software, you can uninstall it and check if you can switch to Windows 8.1.

    Note: Even if you disable the third-party antivirus, Windows Defender will still work in the computer. This will protect your computer against malicious software and viruses.

    Step 3: I suggest you to reset Windows store the cache and check if it helps.

    You can follow the steps to do this:

    (a) on the screen, press the key Windows and R to open the Run dialog box.
    (b) type WSReset.exe and press ENTER.

    Step 4: Run the Windows Update troubleshooting tool and check.

  • Download of virtual machine using extremely slow browser data store

    Hello

    Why download VM files totalling nearly only 8 GB in vSphere Client v4.1.0 (from 4.1.0 ESXi) via a Gigabit LAN would take more than 1800 minutes (30 hours)? Well now after about 5-10 minutes to download, it is said 1560 minutes but still, why is it so slow? I thought that perhaps is that the estimated time remaining is miscalculated, but this isn't the case. The download is just extremely slow.

    Not only that but vSphere Client (VpxClient.exe) constantly uses 25-45% of my cycles while all CPU's do the downloading of files. This slows down the PC I am running vSphere Client. The local network on the server and the client connections are Gigabit too.

    UPDATE: download time now has increased up to 1924 minutes back and it becomes difficult to use my PC for e-mail in Outlook, etc. because vSphere Client seems to use as many cycles CPU.

    UPDATE 2: 2 hours for download via vSphere Client and remaining time jumped up to 2287 minutes. I'm going to cancel and try to download via the web browser interface.

    See the attached screenshots.

    Thank you

    Link to the product:

    http://store.HP.com/UKStore/merch/product.aspx?ID=P1K28EA&opt=Abu&SEL=DTP

    I bought this PC on April 25, 2016 and so far, it's the worst PC I've owned in my life!

    I made 3-4 comments on this trash and its still not on the UK site!

    I don't know if its the terrible material or mine is just a faulty PC.

    Questions:

    1. my USB ports stop usually work (when I connect a device)

    2. not a problem just a stupid thing made HP the HDMI is an output, which means that I can't connect to an output!

    3. my PC often just freezes or gal

    4. you could say "Your PC is riddled with virus" is not only 6 GB of storage was used and the only things I installed was autodesk, and google sketchup and steam and remote play and unity. I've done MANY anti virus scans using McAfee and AVG and there wasn't anything I uninstalled steam and everything and there is no difference my PC has been extremely slow.

    5.i have the feeling that my ram is not working properly; I have 4 GB of ram but 3 GB usable but my PC normally stops when opening microsoft edge it stops just work and shifts.

    6. When you exit an application on during a time and back to her he says just "not responding" every time!

    7 Dissconectivty questions: I always disconnect from the internet when my wifi does not work. Not my wifi is fast so it should work, I checked my other device and it showed my wifi working this problem also applies to my HP printer all in one that still has a paper jam!

    8 bad Proccesor: Please tell me I can replace it with a processor intel I5 - I7 skylake cause this Proccesor is a cheap AMD from £20 to 40 HP Proccesor please tell me if I can replace with this Proccesor:

    https://www.Amazon.co.UK/Intel-Skylake-processor-i5-6500-Turbo/DP/B010T6CWI2/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&...

    9. useless graphics card: joke not but my brother can't play ROBLOX on smaller settings it is isn't a maximum of 16fps horribld? Well please tell me if I can replace it with a graphics card from Nvidia. These graphics cards will work? :

    GTX - 660

    770TI - GTX

    -GTX 980 M (Fits in laptop computers do not see why not?)

    AMD - 270 X

    GTX - 1060

    Or something better than that!

    10. not a problem too, but a reccomendation: do not use a mirror as a screen, the screen is really bad its ok its TOO BRILLIANT just brilliant.

    11. not a problem but a praise (only thing that I love) the sound quality is excellent but with the speakers to the front, but the caches are really ugly.

    On UPGRADES:

    Can I change the graphics cards above? If I can PLEASE tell me if I need to replace the power supply or not (of course that's a Yes)

    Question: I have the warranty will be voided if I upgrade the RAM? Also is there only 1 slot for a 4 GB of ram? Because I want to pass this to 8 (or 16 if possible) of RAM also I am disappointed that it is a 800 MHZ RAM! If I update to a 8-16 GB 2133 Mhz RAM would it work or need a power supply higher?

    Yes, you might think I want this for the games, but no, I have this PC for a long time so I don't want it to be obsolete in a few months and I use game engines so I need this upgrade due to the more advanced over time.

    Sorry to be negative in some areas, but these are the options that I wish to have

    1st choice:

    -Intel I5 (in link above)

    GTX - 750TI 4-6 GB

    -8 GB 2133 MHZ RAM

    -Tell me food if I need to change it.

    2nd choice:

    -Intel I5

    -GTX 980M 4-6 GB

    -16 GB 2133 MHz or 8 gb 2133 Mhz

    -Tell me feeding please!

    3rd choice:

    the least possible but I can;

    Intel I5 processor

    GTX 1060 4-6 GB

    -Tell me power!

    Thank you very much for reading this! I could change mind about how the bad HP is. Please tell me recommendations how to

    know if my PC is faulty or not or if it does not tell me how to acctually works.

    Oh also can I change it for one SSD or SSHD?

    Please tell me if these upgrades will work or not, or tell me another choice which can run top games settings regular 35-60 fps low - med (Cause I can't do high quality games using unity if my PC can't handle)

    Thank you very much!

    Note: I use my ipad because of my PC is slow...

    Did you get this as a gift?  Here is the care.  With a modest 1.8 Ghz processor (welded) and a set of graphics, which is part of the CPU chip, and here is NO slot for a graphics card.  Not possible to capacity except an increase in two modules of 8 GB RAM.  It has a brick laptop to a power supply. What you have is a unit of basic inetrnet/e-mail.

    In my humble OPINION, it should never be your waiting.   Then, I thought that you have been pranking, but you're a Brit, so I stopped short.

  • Extremely slow on my Satellite Z930 - 15 X

    Hello

    Here is my problem (sorry for my English):

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Z930 15 X.

    For several weeks, it is very very slow. If eco or normal mode, it is still slower than the eco mode. * Even without running any program *. When I look at the Task Manager, everything is ok and fluid.

    Is this a hardware problem?
    I also noticed that the fan works far more often than the first months of use, even with just an open word document.

    The only solution I found is to restart the computer.
    After each restart, it is fast as usual, but only for a short period. But at one time or another, the extreme slowness often returns after a break.

    * I also noticed that it often occurs after a suspension or the connection / disconnection of the laptop from the AC outlet.*

    (I said I have a few programs installed and no trace of virus and other software malicious (I'm very careful about that)).

    Have you had this problem, where it comes from, what can I do?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to tell what exact reason. To be honest I don't think that there is a hardware problem. Fact is that many background processes can slow down the performance of s for laptop. Perhaps some context downloads and installation of the update may be reason your laptop reacts quite slow.

    Please check the commissioning and disable all unnecessary applications. If you do not use some of them, they should not start with Windows and run in the background. Also check Windows update option. Turn off automatic updating.

    If please do first and check if the laptop runs a little faster.
    Please post comments.

  • Toshiba Stor.e ALU 2 s 3.5 "does not work with my XBOX

    Hi all, first timer here

    Just got a Toshiba external hard drive as a gift. Wanted one for a while, mainly to use with my XBOX 360 to watch movies and listen to music on. However the xbox does not pick up the hardrive (connected via USB), but he'll be looking for my friends generic hardrives. Anyone has any idea why?

    It looks like a fairly recent model, here are the specs in the (very rare) manual that came with the hard drive:

    Toshiba stor.e 2 s 3.5 ALU "
    1 TB
    USB 3.0
    Backward compatible with USB 2.0 (I don't know what that means "backward" here)

    I'm not a computer person. I use the laptop to surf the web, media, applications etc, basic College work. Few of my friends have external hard drives, mainly cheap generic brands of the average and all work fine on my XBOX, just plug-and-play.

    If anyone has any advice on how to do it, or even where to go woth my question I would really appreciate it.

    TIA
    Creamy

    Hello

    In my view Backward compatible means that you can use this HARD drive with USB 2.0 ports. But the fact is that USB 3.0 port provide 900mA and USB 2.0 only 500mA.
    I guess that's your HARD drive
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/en/store-externe-Festplatten/ALU2-s-35/
    According to specifications, you can find info that this HARD drive should 900mA

    Therefore connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports using a USB Y cable.
    I think this will help you.

    During my work after maybe 5 or 10 minutes, my drive HARD past in mode "sleep" and it takes time to wake up my drive and resave the file. Is there a solution to my problem? I need to disable the Sleep Mode.

    A few things I've tried:
    (1) I tried to use 'Always On' profile in the control panel power option
    (2) off "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" devices-online all storage devices Usb root Manager.
    (3) and also disk management-properties-hardware-online HARD drive-online policies online online => optimize for performance.

    PS Sorry for my English.

    Do you have the same HDD like this one?
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/basics/

    This HARD drive has need of 900mA power supply.
    This means that you need a USB 3.0 standard or 2 x USB 2.0 ports

    I think that if your computer supports support only USB 2.0, you must use the USB cable to Y which allows you to connect 2 USB ports HARD drive.

  • Toshiba STOR. Download of base E driver

    I have a Toshiba STOR. E BASIC 500 GB hard disk external. I plugged on an old laptop and it automatically installs its self and worked well, I managed to put all my files on to. I then connected on a laptop more recent (Windows 7) to do the same thing, but it could not install automatically the good diver.

    I followed the suggestions 'help' and checked my computer setting can automatically search for and install updates, but still no luck. I manually install the driver from the website, but I put t understand all the options. I have to select for the product I own.

    Can someone tell me or suggest another method that might work?

    All these external drives are generally of plug and devices play so the correct driver should be installed automatically after minute or two connected device is recognized correctly and you see in Windows Explorer.

    We don t know this laptop configuration more recent, but if everything is installed correctly including all the drivers, I think that your external HARD drive should be detected properly.
    You can test it on another laptop or desktop PC just to see if the same thing happens again?
