• Upgrade to msata but now original 320 GB HARD drive not recognized

  Hi all

  I just upgraded to an msata that works quite well. However, the HARD disk refuses to be recognized in the BIOS or in windows 7, I just get a 2100 on startup error. I can boot windows after pressing a few keys, but the hard drive is nowhere to be seen in windows. Is it possible to update the list of hard disk or do a low-level format?

  I sent the laptop back on Monday, received Lenovo on Tuesday and I got it back on Friday all fixed! The notes with the laptop says that the motherboard has been replaced, so the sata connection must have been faulty as I suspected.

  Very, very impressed with the service!

• Hitachi Lifestudio external hard drive not recognized on Windows Vitsa... why?

  I have a hitachi lifestudio external hard drive and it works great 50% of the time... the other 50%, I fight because it not being recognized on my computer or laptop (both vista).  I plugged it to my computer now and it will only recognize the player but is not the one with my files that I need.  I have two USB cords connected and it was working fine yesterday!  Now all of a sudden it won't work at all.  I got and rehooked many times now and still nothing.  Other USB ports are filled with our wireless mouse and others.  Is there a way to force vista to recognize something?

  If the hard drive is recognized in disk management and if there is no letter assigned drive, I suggest you make a right click on the drive and assign a drive letter and check to see if it helps:

• Need help: HARD drive not recognized in XPS 8500

  Hello

  I have a special edition of XP Dell 8500 which worked perfectly until this morning, when the hard drive is no longer recognized.  When the computer is resumed mode standby, the computer froze and after rebooting the main hard drive is more visible to the system at all.  DSS and DVD discs are recognized, but the HARD drive is not.  It's all original parts factory with Windows 7, and nothing in the computer has changed between yesterday and today.

  I am looking for help on solving this problem.

  I tried to change the power supply and the motherboard to hard drive with well-known cables, changing the setting from BIOS of RAID and AHCI, but nothing works.

  Start with a DVD of Windows 7 does not detect the HARD drive at all. Run the diagnostics Dell system via F12 at startup can't find any errors - but also, he does not see the whole HARD disk.

  Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas.

  You have done all your possible - the drive is toast and needs to be replaced.

• External Toshiba HARD drive not recognized on USB 2.0 ports, but only on USB 3.0

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba drive external HARD 750 GB USB2.0/USB3.0
  Now, this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port.

  I have try on port USB2.0 computers different (desktop, laptop) but it doesn't work. The LED is the lightning, but the drive does not appear in the file Explorer.

  You have any ideas?

  Thank you

  > Now this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port

  USB 3.0 port 900mA feeds. The USB 2.0 port common provides 500mA.
  I think that the HARD drive needs more 500mA power in order to work properly.

  So if you want to use the HARD drive on USB 2.0 ports, I recommend you to use a USB Y cable which allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports

• Second Hard Drive not recognized / climb (but it IS listed in the Device Manager)

  I have a HP Compaq DC7800 convertible mini tower running than Win 7 Pro 64-bit

  I installed a second hard drive, and while I can see listed in the Device Manager, it is not mounted.

  That is to say, it is not in the computer > field at all.

  The second hard drive is a Hitachi HDT721032SLA360 ATA Device

  Under the hardware ID, it is said: IDE\DiskHitachi_HDT721032SLA360___ST2OA38E

  I thought it was a driver problem. Device Manager indicates that it uses the Microsoft 6.1.7600.16385 driver.

  I can't find a Hitachi driver for this player. My understanding was that this drive would NOT need drivers.

  I have it in the plug of P5 (I think it is P5, it's at the end of the cable with the primary hard drive) and I have a data cable sata from the sata port on the rear of the disc in the slot sata on the motherboard next to the slot in the place where the main in drive is plugged.

  The only sites that list the drivers for this drive are all spam (thanks, google) sites.

  What I have to change something in my Bios?

  Thanks in advance.

  If the drive is listed in the device but not 'computer' Manager, it must be mounted or a new volume must be created. Please see HP - partitioning and names of hard drives (Windows 7) for more information on using the Windows Disk Management Console.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• External hard drive not recognized, but...

  I can't find a similar problem anywhere online.

  Drive external DRIVE is Toshiba Stor.E partner (green), 1 TB.

  About 2 years ago.

  One day last week, I realized, it was not mounted in the usual place (on my Time Capsule), so I connected it to my Mac Mini, but no difference.

  Screenshots show Mac specs, more the HARD drive in the disk and repair utility failed drive.

  It is partitioned into two 500 GB, but I can't really remember why I did it.

  For more than a year it is connected to the back of my time Capsule, so it is not included in the automatic backups. From time to time I move to my Mac Mini for a day or two and include it in the back up - but now that I enter Time Machine can't find a backup of it so I was probably passing on this topic in the wrong way? Also had a problem during the summer, this year, where my TC got indigestion and decided to throw all that, which means that I had to start from scratch, backups but it was not biggy time.

  I bought a new cable (best reviews on Amazon), in which case it was a problem, but no difference. Have not yet tried a Y-cable but will if someone recommends.

  I'm sure that people will need more information, ask so far.

  Also displayed in the Mac Mini to the Web site, but this has farrrr less followers then thought that it would be wise by the bash too.

  Thanks in advance

  

  

  

  

  Seems to me that the drive has failed. It happens.

• Second HARD drive not recognized by windows 8 but is recognized by the sata bios

  Second disk sata hard of not appearing is not on my computer and disk management. However, the hard drive is displayed in the bios. I am running windows 8 and the hard drive has been used in another cpu with linux installed on it, I want to format the hard drive and use it to store data.

  Hello

  Yes, it should work... I didn't know that you were able to do...

  If you can remove the entire partitions... If you can reformat it to NTFS on Linux, you do too much, or just wait and do in Windows.

  Parted Magic is actually a program Linux incidentally...

• Tecra M9-185 - 750 GB HARD drive not recognized

  I have Tecra M9-185 (PTM91E-0G4045G3) with BIOS Version 1.90 dated the 29.02.2008.
  It came with HARD drive of 160 GB, which is quite old and needs replacement. I want to upgrade the HARD drive. I tried to use the 750 GB HARD drive, but it was not recognized by the BIOS.

  Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? Is there a limit to the ability of the new HARD disk that can be installed?

  Hello

  Of course, the HARD drive can be upgraded.
  The laptop supports the SATA controller. The SATA controller is not limited to a special HARD drive size of my knowledge. 750Go should be supported too. But it might be possible that the BIOS is not able to manage these dimensions.
  Try a different SATA HDD with the smaller size.

  But question: why you n t choose an SSD (250 GB)?
  I have improved my Tecra A10 with a 250 GB SSD and the performance gain is amazing. The machine is running much faster and quieter

• Equium - HARD drive not recognized in Windows XP

  I replaced the HARD drive in the laptop, because the original had a catastrophic faulure. I replaced the HARD drive correctly (as far as I can see) but when I come to re - install Windows XP HARD drive may not be recognized.

  Any ideas?

  Hi potters.

  What model of laptop you have exactly?

  It would be important to know because if you have a model that uses SATA hard drives need drivers Intel Storage Manager you can install Windows XP.

  But in this case, you should check other forum threads. You will find hundreds of discussions on installing XP on SATA hard drive.

• Satellite M70: HARD drive not recognized external - various XP error messages

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M70 and I have a Western Digital external hard drive.
  Initially, it worked great, I was able to put my large collection of music, etc. on it and run a computer off to save space on my integrated HD.

  But recently I had problems with XP not recognizing HD or be able to write in it. It appears in my computer, then disappear, often randomly when I write new files to it.
  I reformatted the hard drive to NTFS as it ran originally as FAT32.

  I updated my BIOS as well, but I'm out of ideas.

  Anyone else had similar problems with XP?

  Thank you

  Will be

  Have you thought about external HARD drive failure?
  Perhaps failure of HARD drive and, therefore, it cannot be recognized correctly.

• Tecra S3 on Linux: hard drive not recognized

  Hello

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Tecra S3 and I'm happy with it, except for one important thing: I can not install Linux on it.

  I tried with the latest versions of Fedora Core and Ubuntu, the hard drive seems to be detected, but it is not recognized at the time of installation. I guess it's a matter of (too) new chipset Serial ATA.

  You have any recommendations or do you intend to contribute to the kernel modules in Linux/order that this model could be installed on Linux?

  Also note that I remember that I had the same problem when I tried to install Windows XP from a CD (not the recovery cd): the hard drive has not been detected and the installation failed.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I can t believe that you can not install a Windows operating system.
  You formatait once again the HARD drive? I recommend to format the HARD drive completely, then install the operating system.
  In addition, if you want to use the Windows operating system, you must use the recovery CD because this image included all the necessary drivers.

  If you want to work with the Linux operating system, I recommend using the Knoppix distribution. In this case you n t need to install anything. This Linux you can start from the DVD or CD and it works as a Linux operating system normally

  Good bye

• Equium A200-1v0 - HARD drive not recognized OS install

  Hello

  I'm looking to rebuild a laptop A200-1v0 but the toshiba hd I use seems not to be recognized.

  Are the drivers to drive hard toshiba not normally seen by win xp installations. ??

  Thank you

  Hello

  You need to include the SATA drivers which is part of the Intel storage Manger.

  Take a look at this thread:

  or search this forum for instruction AHCI SATA drivers, etc.
  There are a lot of discussions on this subject.

• 3 50 PX1394U external hard drive not recognized

  I recently bought the external hard drive, Toshiba PX1394U 3 50. I followed the instructions for the installation and everything went as planned either he found material etc. and returned with the message of successful installation.

  However, when I go in my computer that there should be an icon for the external hard drive and it does not exist.

  I saw the thread, recommending using REGEN, but this has no effect on the problem - the icon still does not appear in my computer.

  I use a laptop computer from a different manufacture running Windows XP and all updates are loaded.

  I also had the same problem when loading on my desk.

  Any ideas?

  If you get the message installation was successful, you should find the HARD disk in disk management.
  Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > disk management

  Maybe you first create a partition or format, but normally you will see players all recognized.

• Re: Toshiba Store Art Exteranal 320 HARD drive not recognized

  Hello

  I have a problem with my 320 GB Toshiba Store Art HDD Exteranal.
  I bought it a week ago and everything worked well on different systems: Win 7 (64), Vista (32), XP Pro.
  But today when I tried to use it it displays a message that * unrecognized device * and it cannot install the driver for this device.

  Unfortunately there are no drivers to download for this device drivers Toshiba page.
  I checked it on Win 7 (64) and Vista (32) - same problem.
  I remember, the last time that I used it was on XP Pro.

  I checked the internet for a solution, but in the end I had to write a message here.

  Hope for more help.

  > I bought a week ago and everything worked well on different systems: Win 7 (64), Vista (32), XP Pro.
  > But today when I tried to use it it displays a message this device not recognized and it cannot install the driver for this device.

  If the HARD drive worked perfectly in the past without the use of drivers, then I guess that this has nothing to do with a missing driver.

  In your case I would recommend to check and test the HARD disk on another computer/laptop running a Win XP or Vista.

  If the drive HARD wouldn't connect and would not be functioning with the help of other computers, then a hardware problem is possible

  PS: this external USB hard drives are Plug & Play compatible and so a pilot should not be necessary!
