using the WSSD as storage additional 15-j171nr

2 related questions:

1. I replaced my HDD with a SSD. I need is no longer the WSSD as a cache acceleration. The WSSD can be reformatted to be used as an additional 2 of 24 GB for storage hard disk?

2. If the answer to the first question is in the affirmative, can I switch to 16 GB of ram without problem? I have read reports in this forum where people have had problems with the help of more than 8 GB of ram with the WSSD. but since it is no longer a cache for the HARD drive and just storage it should be ok right?

Yes and Yes. The WSSD is displayed in the disk management console? It appears in 'computer '?

See Page 43 of the Service Manual for the location of the WSSD:

Manual

Open the console Intel Rapid Storage of Windows and see how the MSSD appears here, if so.

I have a 17 envy which I think is essentially the same hardware you have. In order to "unmask" the drive of the WSSD 24 concert and make it available to Windows to format and mount as a lettered drive, I have to go into the BIOS F10 and disable "secure starting" and enable legacy start. Then at the start, you are greeted with the BIOS level configuration tool RAID Intel. You have defined the 24 concert on non-RAID drive, and then restart the secure boot and startup in Windows 8 and the drive of the WSSD should be visible in the disk management console to format and assign a drive letter.

The limit of 16 gigabytes of RAM upgrade applies only if you use the WSSD as a disk cache acceleration. So feel free to add RAM even with the current configuration. 24 GB of storage is not much, so you might be better off to just remove the MSSD and set aside in case you want to use.

Post back if you need help more with this.

  • Messed up gets worksheet formatting when you use the update to add additional sheets

    Someone had problems with cfspreadsheet where a sheet has formatting issues when the sheet is added as an extra sheet by using the update action, while the same sheet looks good when the leaf is the first or the only sheet added using the action of writing?

    I use 10 CF.

    For what it's worth, according to some other posts that I found here, I've reconfigured my code so that it creates an object of unique spreadsheet with multiple sheets, rather than objects of individual worksheet for each sheet, then he makes a single call to write this object on the disk. That seems to have solved most if not all of my formatting issues. The basic takeaway I suppose is do not use the update action if you can possibly avoid it.

  • Query using the functions, research and additions?

    I am new to SQL, databases, and APEX! I'm sure it's very easy for you all, but I've been racking me my brains for two days on it; time for experts.

    My simple request is:

    Select first_name. » '|| middle_name | » '|| last_name 'full name '.
    of name_table;

    The problem I have, is that each name above is in a foreign language (which I don't understand by the way!), but I have a table that has "English" translations for each name... so my question is how to replace my 'translanted' value in each case...

    to translate the values, I do a:

    Select translated_name
    of translated_table
    where orginal_name = FirstName (or middle_name or same last_name)
    and translation source = "Dictionary" (there may be 3-4 or four sources of translation for each name...)


    Looks like a 'feature' would be the best way to do it... After much googling, this is what I came up with (which obviously does not work!):

    create or replace function TRANS_NAME (v_original in varchar2)
    return varchar2
    is
    v_translated varchar2;
    Start
    Select translated_name from v_translated
    of translated_table
    where original_name = v_original
    source = "Dictionary".
    Return v_translated;
    end;

    I use the 'APEX' Explorer to create the function, for a few reasons:
    1 SQL more does not display the foreign language (shows just a buch of? s), the APEX SQL tool indicates that the original language!
    2. it gives immediate, if not cryptic, comments on syntax errors.

    FYI, I'm using Oracle 11 g on a Sun Solaris 10 Server.

    Appreciate any help you might be able to provide!

  • The CARS performance bottleneck will be the shared disk storage?

    Hi all
    I'm studying CARS and I am concerned about the bottleneck of CARS I/O performance.
    If I have 10 knots and they use the same disk storage to contain the data, then
    they're going to do i/o on the disk at the same time.
    Maybe we got more latency...

    Will it be a performance problem?

    How RAC does not solve this kind of problem?

    Thank you.

    All 10 nodes connected with storage shared by FIBRE cable which give faster latency also all nodes interconnection must be a GIGABIT switch. This option two is going to solve the problem of slow disk i/o.

    Hi all

    I intend to buy an SSD mSATA disc to my desire, because I want to improve the response time at the opening of some programs, improve the General performance of the operating system and to access files faster to big (read and write).

    I searched several readers mSATA SSD in the Web and I chose a P830 Series128GB mSATA SSD Samsung miniPCI-E disk (SATA III 6 GB/s, read 500 MB/s, writing of 400 MB/s).

    But I'm asking about what might be the best option to use the SSD mSATA so suitable as a primary drive (operating system installation and leaving 1 TB of HARD drive for storage and applications) or use it as a cache to improve overall performance.

    I do not envy for IE play or video editing, but I work with VMWare Workstation, and most of the time I need to use about 2 or 3 VM at the same time (sometimes during the recovery of a virtual Suspension of machine it take a long time, the virtual disks sizes about 40 GB). Another use for my desire is to play movies/series HD / 3D 0 and mirrored them for my Smart TV (via Miracast)

    I read something on Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT) and I heard some benefits for use with SSDS as cache memory but I am still confused the best option.

    Any suggestions you may have? It might be useful for me!

    Kind regards

    Hello @cchoiz ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you have questions about the installation of your mSATA SSD.

    The mSATA slot is designed to only be used as a disk cache. You may experience problems starting in the mSATA SSD as drive. For this reason, I recommend to use it in its configuration provided; as a cache drive.

    The decision is entirely at you in the end. If you are able to configure the BIOS to use the mSATA as the main drive, this will help improve your system performance in addition to using it as a cache drive, especially if there is enough space to install your VMWare on the mSATA SSD after you have installed the operating system. Use it as a main drive will also increase the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I can only offer you my personal and no suggestions 'official response HP' in this regard. As previously mentioned, it is entirely up to you.

    Hopfully, this helps at least a little.

  • Maximize battery life flash by using the Scriptures of sector size file. USB and SD card storage limits Cap

    I use the sbRIO-9636 with 512 MB of non-volatile storage (Flash I presume?).  I'm not find the size of the sector in the Spec Docs, I found it, and Measurement & Automation Explorer does not display it no more, and I can't find one physical property of RT to make it.  I built a utility 'RIO leader Writer"for the text written to the buffer until the sector size is full or until the file is closed using the VI, but it would be useful to know the sector size.  For now, I'll assume 32 KB as I read the 9606 uses 16 k with its 256 MB drive.

    I have attached the utility (a single LV 2012 (VI) in case someone else would be useful.  I promise you there better performance or memory efficient, but its purpose was to save the Flash of my application, which supports the recording of data CAN (1000 + packets/sec) to the file, and it does that very well.  I continued to save the CAN data without it, with each written separately CAN package (~ 40 characters / record log, or ~ 820 written by sector of 32 KB), I probably would have started to lose areas in the next few weeks was not that of wear levelling - maybe even with wear leveling.  With that, life shouldn't be a problem (although the ability remains one, I can switch to USB storage if it is).

    Come to think of it, this can help with all the data being quickly to any player, as all readers use sectors (or blocks of sectors), assuming that you can sacrifice the RAM requirements to register your system hard disk (or to).

    Storage issues more:  What is the limit of the capacity of the SD and USB function storage on the sbRIO-9636 map?  The specification mentions support SDHC, but does not say specifically THAT SDXC is not supported.  It does support the monstrously huge SDXC cards or the max for SDHC (32 GB)?  In addition, with SD and USB storage, is size of block review?  LabVIEW has a property, I can read for all this that I don't see?

    Thank you!

    Hi Erik,

    I was wrong, we have a LabVIEW function that will find the size of area for a specific drive, it's the Get Volume Info.vi (link). You can run this VI and the flash drive on the sbRIO to find the minimum size of sector for reference entries.

    Regarding external drives to the USB port, I think you are right in your assumption about the limits of FAT16 and FAT32. Keep in mind there are also limits on file size of 2 GB or 3 GB of maximum file size.

    Most of the USB-to-IDE adapters works for the sbRIO (or cRIO), but USB-to-SATA is not supported to work on sbRIO. You can always try to use a SATA-USB HARD drive, but it might not work.

  • How to use the 2nd hard drive internal for storage?

    Hi, I am a newbie in all of this. I would use the 2nd internal hard drive of our mac mini server (end 2012) for storage (in fact, I'll things rsync from a remote server to here. but this is not the point here.). The thing is, I don't know how to access the 2nd internal hard drive and where to start. I did all of the following commands in the Terminal, but I don't really know what they mean, and what can I do with this information. I've been Googling but most are guides on how to install a 2nd hard drive etc. I hope that the information below is enough for someone to give me advice please?

    Hello:

    Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

    If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

    If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

    I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

    So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

    To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • How can I use the additional features of windows 8.1 license key

  • How to configure and use the local storage dirve and usb

    My company bought a server DMM cisco as well as 10 players of 4310 g dmp.  I tried to work on mine here to get it all working.  Let me expose what we would do first before to get into the details.

    The cental DMM will it play any content and be used to create and manage the content here at company wehre I am.  However my boss wants to send dmp individual players (4310 g) out to our factories across the country.  He wants me to be able to creat content or allow a person managing the exact address to edit the content and then push the content from the server DMM to corporate local DPM record either on local storage or attached thumb order.  I guess my questions on what are the following.

    (1) is it necessary to push the content locally for playback?  Willingness to play the content of our dmm on the wan to do lots of traffic?  Presentations could be as simple as a welcome page based presentation playing images video and flash.

    (2) based on local content would be a wise decision I'll have to see exactly how this is done poorly.  In the settings of the dmp, I see the setting of local storage and turned it on and set to read/write.  In regard to the command of thumb gose exactly how I implement that so that DPM can see?  I plug to the back of the drive, and it seems that it is active but the management console of the player I don't see anyway to actaully see if she knows the USB.

    (3) how will push the content for local storage and control of the DMM thumb?  It looks like I can send things to the storage internal if package transfer and or advanced/DPM deployment tasks or server file.  What exactly is the difference between these two?

    (4) Lastly how I actually play the local content of the dmp?  Can I set this up on a schedule of the dmm just like I would if he played the local dmm?

    I searched through the documentation, but I have not found any good docs who are clear to actually how to do these things.  So, any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Glen,

    Here are the answers to your questions

    1) is it nessesary to push the content locally for playback?  Will  playing content from our dmm over the wan be to much traffic?   Presentations could be as simple as a basic welcome page to a  presentation playing video and flash images.

    It is not required to push the content locally, you can also play the DMM directly. The main advantage of playing on the spot, is that you can transfer the videos several hours or days before the presentation begins to be played if you deploy content off hours and then, when he's ready to start playing the new presentation.

    If you play directly the content of the DMM, the content will be transferred at the time of the DMP starts playback. This may fail if the WAN link is saturated at that time here.

    2) If pushing the content local would be a wise decision I am having  difficulty seeing exactly how this is done.  In the dmp settings I see  the local storage setting and have it turned on and set to read/write.   As far as the thumb drive gose how exactly to I set that up so the dmp  can see it?  I plug it in the back of the player and it looks like it's  active but from the management console of the player I do not see any  way to actaully see if it knows about the usb thumb drive.

    You don't need to do anything to enable USB storage, simply plug it in. To confirm that the DMP is able to see it properly, the simplest way is to connect to the DPM via FTP and confirm that he has a «usb_2» directory This "usb_2" directory, where is the USB drive is mapped.

    3) how will I push the content to the local storage and the thumb drive  from the DMM?  It looks like I can send things to the internal storage  though the advanced tasks/deployment package and or file transfer to DMP  or server.  What exactly is the differnce between these two?

    The task of "File transfer" will just do this, transfer a file to the DMP. The deployment package is smarter and will transfer all the contents of a presentation and organize them in a structure that can be used to read the content locally. You should always use the deployment package.

    4) finally how will I actually play the content from the local dmp?  Can  I set this up on a schedual from the dmm just like I would if it was  playing from the local dmm?

    Yes, she may be scheduled as any other presentation.

    I suggest you have a look at the link below. He explains the steps required to configure the deployment package and read the content deployed with it.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_2/DMM/user/guide/DMP/CDs.html#wp2188026

  • If you have two hard drives, can you wipe the second and just use it as a storage device?

    If you have two HARD drives in a PC Windows 7, can you remove everything (including the System 32, Windows users, literally everything) in the second and still use his computer? All my programs on the first HDD would remain on my PC, but all the files of the second being scratched? I'm running out of space on my first HARD drive and need to know if I can keep the second as storage just pure.

    Thank you.

    Hey Elliot,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    According to the description, it seems that you want to delete all the data on the secondary hard drive without affecting the first hard drive operating system files.

    I'll be happy to help you with this.

    If the operating system (Windows 7) is installed on the first hard drive, it has nothing to do with the second hard disk. You can go ahead and delete all data without hesitation.

    Note: Make sure that you remove the data from the hard drive where Windows 7 is installed.

    If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup.

    For more information, see the link.
