There is none. You can not format the drive in Windows
on all running Windows. It would be like sawing off the branch of a
tree of that which you are sitting.

Why do you want to format C:? If it is to reinstall Windows, you do not have
you will first need to format. Simply boot from the Windows DVD and follow

  • What is the hard drive more large size taken supported by the HP Pavilion a6650f?

    Hello, I have a HP Pavilion a6650f that I got from a friend a few years ago.

    I'm looking into upgrading the hard drive to a SATA 1 TB or 2 TB drive. The vehicle currently has a 80 GB IDE drive. I know it is originally with a 500 GB SATA drive (which was later to be defective, so he gave it to me after his warranty missed).  The original drive left after that (of course) missed coverage.

    He currently runs Ubuntu Linux 12.04 EAP 32-bit.

    This PC would be able to use the 2 TB drive Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 7 200 RPM?

    http://microcenter.com/product/386364/Barracuda_2TB_7, 200_SATA_6Gb-s_35_Internal_Hard_Drive_ST2000DM...

    The computer should be fine with SATAII disks up to 2 TB. Greater than 2 to cause problems for you. In addition, you may need to update the drivers for the readers of Format 'Advance '.

  • Help. What is the best drive configured

    Hi, I've searched for days understand this disc is suitable for every task.

    I own an iMac 2011 with 12 GB of RAM and a 500 GB hard drive (7200 RPM) and two external hard drives. One of them is HDD 1 TB USB3 interface but my iMac does not support USB3 so there the USB2 speed. The other is a 500 GB HARD disk with Firewire interface.

    I want to color correct a short, my images are Apple Prores HQ with around 320 MB/s data rate and the total size is 45 GB. I found this by using the Aja Datacalc application. My system is slow for this work, so I will try to find a way to get there.

    From what I found on the internet, an SSD would make a difference. But I don't know if it would be better to buy an external SSD with thunderbolt interface or add internal SSD, but also keep the original of my iMac hard drive.

    But more importantly, I know not how to use these discs. And I mean the basic level.

    For example, I must:

    -Add internal SSD flash drive and use it as a boot drive, so it will work all programs, I guess that

    -use the internal HARD drive to keep the media and project files

    -use the FireWire External HARD to cache disk

    - and the drive external HARD with USB2 for exports

    ???

    Also, what is the minimum size for the SSD in this case? I guess that's 256 GB, but maybe it needs more space, I don't know.

    Anyone?

    If stick you with some of the lumetri no color fx, your gpu can handle a bit of color correction. lumetri is of speedgrade and powerful GPU. you say the system after a certain time LAG, if it's back on the same project you've worked on you can check the memory usage to see if the 12 GB of ram is used. If it works fine with a new project with these images and then lag after adding the color fx, it could be the gpu it slows down with the color fx. There are so-called utilities that you can use on the mac to check the cpu, ram and same gpu use to help identify bottlenecks...

    for the media, previews and exports, readers are to be fast enough for their goal with the codecs used. If you have a fast media player but are constantly rendering to a slow player previews, it may be counterproductive. If the drive is slow and the reader to glimpse is fast, but you return not found very often it can also be counterproductive. its better to have an SSD for many small files, like os/apps/cache files, as hard drives do not handle well lots of small files.

  • What are the hard drives of compatible replacement for HP Pavilion DV6T-3000?

    I have a HP Pavilion DV6T-3000 PC laptop, and S.M.A.R.T. has constantly warned me of impending hard disk failure. I already reinstalled the hard drive, and I still get error 301 s.m.a.r.t.

    On my R700 (Windows 7) I see an icon in the taskbar that shows that my optical drive is on or OFF. I can turn this with Fn - TAB. If the context you click the icon, it offers you "drive optical auto lock ' and a 'time of unlocking settings' - what does this?

    What is the E: drive? Hard drive? CD/DVD drive? Something else?

    If it is a hard drive, it's a partition on your hard drive only or a
    second physical disk?

    If it is a part, how big is it? How it is there? You did
    create or the computer came up with it?

    If the latter, what is the "useless stuff" that is there. How many
    files? What are their names (tell us at least a few names)?

    The player has a name? Is it called recovery? If so, make sure that
    you do not delete something there. Post for more information
    all that it is and what needs to be done with it.
