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?

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.

Windows 7 Home Basic disk partition problem
Hey.I have a problem while creating the partition.i right click on unallocated memory... you click on new simple volume... I finished installing successfully... in the last step in the configuration... when I clicked FINISH... the next dialogue box appeared...
DISK MANAGEMENTThe operation you selected will convert the selected basic disks and dynamic disks. If you convert the dynamic disks, you will not be able to start the operating systems from any volume on the disks (except the current boot volume). Are you sure you want to continue?YES NOThat's the problem... why this dialog box appeared?... What can I do?... I want to do a partition of disk without error... I'm not a professional... Please anyone suggest a way to overcome this problem.Thank you very much.
MY EMAIL: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.You can have a maximum of 4 primary partitions. If you already have 4 of these windows will convert your drive on a dynamic volume that is NOT recommended. To resolve this issue, you must convert one of your primary partition in an extended partition. The extended partition can have many more logical drives. Windows Disk Manager is unable to do this without losing the data, but the third-party programs such as Acronis Disk Director can.

Partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "power USB3 problems
I had the partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "external hard drive USB3 for about 5 months and couldn't be happier... until tonight.
I have it plugged into my laptop Satellite Pro and nothing happened. It seems that the fault is where the cable connects to the device. If I pull the cable up the light blue lights and voltage of my hard drive, when I let go the power ceases.
It seems that the connection of the device is quite fragile and I can move it up and down easily.
I took care of the product and have not been subjected to undue constraints so I'm not very happy.Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
Is this a design flaw or a single random problem?Can it be fixed?
Thank you very much
Mallrat 999Hello
You you connected this external USB HDD two USB ports on your laptop?
I think that you must use a USB cable to Y that allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports, because this HARD drive needs 900mA.The common standard USB 2.0 port (I guess that your laptop supports only USB 2.0) provides 500mA and usually is not enough for the USB 3.0 HARD drive.
Another solution could be the use of the USB hub using an external power supply.

Please how can I know if inside the drive is sata native or with USB soldering on the circuit board?
My model is: HDTB115EK3BA
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."
http://www.Toshiba.EU/hard-drives/portable/store-basics/hdtb115ek3ba/You can also try some freeware like HDDscan for example tools to scan the HARD drive and get more details.

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 USB3Why is this happening?
Thank you
BR / JaviWhy 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 thisFact 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 readI 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.

Problem with Toshiba Stor.E D10, 1 of 5 TB external HARD drive and eSata connector
Hello
I have a problem with eSata HARD drive. I have a toshiba Stor.E D10, 1, 5 to external HDD. When I plug it into the connector back eSata, Windows 7 recognize this and I can read it, but when I try to write about it, it freezes and I have to unplug it. When I connect the Toshiba Stor.E D10 with the USB cable, everything works fine. The problem is when I use the eSata connector. I have updated the BIOS to the latest without any improvement. In the BIOS, I tried esata IDE and AHCI controller without success.
My system: Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate, card mother Gygabyte GA-X58A-UD3R(rev. 2.0)
Any help is happy.

Toshiba Store Art 4 USB 3.0 1 TB works not with USB3.0 or USB 2.0 port
Hello
I have a big problem with my external hard drive and I hope someone can help me.Here's the thing:
I used my external drive only on computers that don't have any port usb 3 and all worked well. The drive has been used only with usb ports 2.
Now, I got a computer with a usb port 3 and I was happy to be able to use my external hard drive at full speed.
Has been fine until I wanted to transfer a file using my drive.The disc has been recognized either of usb ports 2. The NTFS partition is a partition BRUTE! I had to ' chkdisk/f G:' to make it work again on my usb ports 2. And some files were missing!
Then, back on my other computer (usb port 3), the contents were not the same! I mean some of the files that I deleted when it is plugged into usb 2 returned when plugged usb ion 3! And then, back to the usb 2, partition became RAW and I had ' chkdisk/f G:'... once again!
So, to make it as simple as possible, after some testing, it seems that the drive can only be used on the usb ports 2-only on ports usb 3 but can not be used at a time, which is very annoying for a portable external hard drive.
I tried to format the drive to my usb port 2 and return on the usb port 3, the content came as if I had never formatted it and then back on the usb port 2, the RAW score again...
I use Windows 7 and 8.1 Windows computers.
Someone at - it experience that? What is the drive (Toshiba Store Art 1 TB USB3 4)? What is the USB 3 specification? Is - Windows 7 or 8.1 drivers?
And above all: what can I do?Thank you very much!
This external plug & play Toshiba HDD supports two USB standards: USB 3.0 and USB 2.0
HARD drive around needs bus power 900mA to work correctly.The USB 3.0 port supports this standard 900mA. The USB 2.0 port allows only to 500mA.
If in case the HARD disk is not working properly connected to the USB 2.0 port, I recommend you to use a USB cable to Y in order to connect the 2 ports USB 2.0 HARD disk.I have no idea why the content on the HARD drive is different, but from my point of few of the USB standard does not affect content.
In my opinion, the HARD drive wasn't working properly using a USB 2.0 due to the low power.
By the way: this HARD drive supports some additional features like the ability to oversight function and monitor to alert of the disk space that sends a alert when there is not enough available storage space.
For advanced users, Toshiba has added the ability to customize the backup routine, including the ability to select only the most common file types for backup and change how many times a backup takes place.

Toshiba stor.e 1 TB HARD drive no longer works
Hi all
I have a new Toshiba stor.e 1 TB HARD drive and was transfer photos and music to it and all was fine, I ejected it but when I plugged it back I get the message:
F: is not accessible
Data error (cyclic recovery control)A quick search and it says that run cmd and chkdsk but that simply says:
The type of the file system is RAW
CHKDSK is not available for RAW drivesPlease can someone help?
Thank you
According to the article in the Microsoft Knowledge base, the data error (cyclic redundancy check) - indicates that the operating system has found a car with bad sectors or some other intermittent problem.
In my opinion, you should go to disk management and check if the external HARD disk is listed:
-> Panel-> administration-> computer management tools--> disk management
If his list, you can change the file RAW to NTFS format
Then you can perform a chkdsk command.But you lose the data, change the file format.
As far as I know, using the command: + convert DriveLetter: /fs:ntfs + (drive letter + should be replaced with the drive letter of the USB HDD) should not lead to data loss

Toshiba Stor.e Canvio on MacBook Pro
Hello
I bought a Toshiba Stor.e Canvio 1 TB external hard drive and I have problems when I connect it on MacBook Pro.
I formatted for Mac OS (with the registry) and works well with the iMac and Mac Pro, but nothing to do on Macbooks...
Searching the Internet I found that this problem is impossible due to a hardware problem which can be solved using a USB hub and I tried but does not work...I don't know what else I can do if you know something about this problem, I will be appreciated...
Thanks in advance.
Hello
I assume you mean on this external HARD drive
http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/Canvio/This HARD drive needs 900mA current and this means that you can use a USB 3.0 port or 2 USB 2.0 ports.
The point is that a USB 3.0 port provide 900mA and USB 2.0 port provides 500mA
So if you Mac provides only the 500mA to each USB slot, then you connect the 2 ports USB 2.0 HARD drive, in this case, you can use a usb cable to Y. -
Toshiba Stor.E D10 on Satellite A660 PSAW3E esata connection
Hello!!!
A few days ago, I bought a 1.5 to Toshiba Stor.E D10 eSATA HARD drive.
I tried to connect it via the eSATA cable. At first I saw my D10 HDD 1.5 in Win explore (Win 7 Home Premium x 64) as drive E.
When I tried to access the drive, I get a "device not ready" error I was expecting 5 minutes with HARD drive connected externally. I got the same error. When you look in the Device Manager in the records section I couldn't see it. All I see is the internal 640 GB HARD drive.
When I connect it via the USB 2.0 connection, the drive is recognized and working properly. I could transfer data to this subject with 23MBps max on USB 2.0 speed is 60MBps (480 Mbps).
As I work with huge video files (~ 10 GB per hour of video) I need an eSATA connection to expedite the transfer.Plese help me with this problem!

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
CreamyHello
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 900mATherefore connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports using a USB Y cable.
I think this will help you. -
