• Satellite A100-216: can I move Windows.old for drive external HARD

  Hello

  I got my satellite A100-216 almost 12 months, (and I'm pleassed with it, incidentally), and bought with XP, but she has the option (taken) to get the upgrade to Vista Home Premium.

  I have finally plucked courage to Vista and have a question.

  In the book, it says that the hard drive will be completely erased, and all must be safeguarded. OK - did this.
  It lights up during loading to say that only a full upgrade is possible and that the old windows will be stored in a folder called "Windows.old" even if the operating system will be unusable.
  There seemed no option but to agree with what is happening and lo and here is the record + Windows.old + is here, and it's * Gb * 6 in size!

  After saving everything, can I really keep this large amount of things on my HARD drive. I can move it on my external hard drive?

  The capacity of the HARD drive, (nominally 100 GB) but showing 93Gb shows 24,6 now used by Vista without other programs or drivers installed.

  If I remove this 6 GB, I'll have a more reasonable 75 GB to play with.

  The other option would have been to start on an OEM XP disk, opt for delete and re-create a primary partition and load Vista from there after the format. Would it be: r: work and B: use less space.

  If the 6 GB file is all that it would save, I'll just save it on my external HARD drive.

  Thanks :)

  Hi Dave,.

  The Windows.old folder is a backup of your files/folders/settings of your XP system etc.

  It is automatically created during the process of update for Vista and is designed as a quick way to return to the earlier version of the operating system if you need to do. \obviously its value will decrease over time, once you start using Vista, because different files will become obsolete with the use.

  The normal procedure is to remove these backup files "shadow", once you are happy that Vista is not working properly and there is an option to do it for you in the utiliy Vista disk cleanup.

  Hello

  I guess that this external hard drive is a USB - stick. Have you tried to connect it to another PC? If this isn't the case, so I propose to do this and check if your drive is working correctly.

  The best state test would be to check this with a PC which has Vista.

• Satellite A200-1If - drive external HARD after a while is "unknown device".

  Hello!

  I have such a problem: I work with my external case alu Toshiba 3.5 HDD 500 GB and after awhile of copy of the files in the laptop it disappears and appears this luckily device recognized.
  Can it be caused by not enough power in the USB port?

  THX for any help or the workaround

  Hello

  Yes, this may be caused by the fact, there is not enough power provided by the USB port. first of all, note that external USB hard drives 3.5 inches are generally designed to be used with systems of office due to their higher power needs (this is also the reason that many need an external power supply of their own). my suggestion would be to buy a 2.5 inch drive external hard USB is designed to be used with laptops. Another reason that the hard drive may disappear when copying files, is that there may be a problem with the connection of the USB cable between the laptop and the external HARD drive. I suggest to check that both ends are connected properly and not put any pressure on the cables and keep them stable.

  I hope this helps you with your question

• Drive external HARD encrypted in ExFat?

  Hello

  I have a new drive external HARD I need to use on a Mac and a PC. I need to access the same files (data analytics), so I don't want to make 2 partitions and have duplicate files. What I've read, it seems that ExFat is the best option for this (they are large files, so that the FAT will not work). My work, however, requires external hard drives to encrypt. When I tried to put it on my MacBook Pro (El Capitan), however, I received an error.

  My question is this: is there a way to meet all three of these criteria?

  (1) disk encrypted

  (2) read/write on a mac

  (3) read/write, the same files on a PC

  I have a separate HARD disk for Time Machine, I use an airport. This disc will have to travel with me.

  Thanks in advance!

  If you were able to encrypt it using the built-in OS x software, Windows would not be able to decipher. If you use a Windows build-in encryption software, OS X would not be able to decipher.

  You have to find a 3rd party package that works on BOTH OS X and Windows, which can encrypt and decrypt on both platforms.

  In the past, I would have done TruCrypt, however, he was abandoned by unknown original authors, but there have been a few replacements based on the original source of TruCrypt.  Try googling 'TruCrypt Alternatives' and you might find something where they support the OS X and Windows.

  Otherwise, you will need to find another cross platform encryption package.

• Drive external hard freezes computer

  I had a problem this week with my external hard drive HP's

  Whenever I have plug in and turn on the computer hangs and will not let me access it or work station. It appears in the Manager devices, but as soon as I try to do something with it, that crashes so until it is turned off. The HP Launcher will appear under "Devices with removable storage" but goes no further.

  I tried it on two desktop computers and a laptop for the same result. It works however when I plug into my TV and play music and moves I have on it and show the images.

  I'll buy a new one, so I really need to be able to grasp some things of it to copy to the new.

  Hello

  If you can't get your external hard drive connected then contact HP support. HP has the services of data recovery for SimpleSave external hard drives.

  I doubt very much that the theory of 'fan' is the problem.  I suspect that bad manufacturing or the hard drive may have been too much ' pot'.  I used a lot of external hard drives for years without fans and did not yet meet failure.

• Connection drive external hard am.

  Hello world
  I wonder if it is possible to connect the drive external hard am to z3?
  In the light of others do it on the other android device. Got an otg cable, plugged my HDD but the phone is not supported it or I'm doing something wrong.

  Any help with this would be appreciated.

  Yes, you can check what file system that is used if you connect to a PC, right-click on the drive in the Solution Explorer and select Properties.

  It is possible to convert NTFS to FAT without deleting all data, but I do it without the first run a backup in case something goes wrong. And if you have files bigger than 4 GB it will be problems with these as FAT32 does not support that. exFAT supports, but I didn't know of any tool that can convert NTFS to exFAT without wiping the drive.
