XPS 8300 will not identify data reader 5 to

I have a desktop computer XPS 8300, Windows 7/64, 12 GB of RAM. Boot drive is a 500 GB SSD, and there is a SATA 2 TB of data. I'm a photographer, so I need a lot of data storage.

I just bought a Toshiba MD04ACA500 5 to to use as a data drive (NO boot).

My XPS 8300 can see the drive, but insists on the fact that it contains only 500 GB of storage, not 5 TB. I did the following:

  • Run Diskpart from a DOS window.
  • Run Diskmgmt.msc;
  • Run the tool to partition a third party
  • Also, I went through Windows KB 2581408 procedure of adding a player of great size.

No matter what I do, the drive is detected as only 500 GB.

The XPS 8300 is possible to work with a 5 TB drive? If so, how?

Thank you, Ed

Disks over 2 TB software needed to work with disks of large capacity and NEED 64 Bit Windows.  INTEL RST integrated in win7 is 8.x, which means that he WILL NOT see large capacity disks. Seagate manage it with the driver and utilities.

http://www.Seagate.com/support/downloads/beyond-2TB/

INTEL RST 10.1 at least is NECESSARY for advanced format drives.

With windows vista or 7 install ATA mode then the microsoft patch is necessary before moving on to the AHCI.

https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/922976

Once passed to Ahci and work, you install the version of the RST that works for your model.

Latest and most recent versions of the decline of the RST support more older chipsets.

The latest 15 13 or 14 or 11 or 12 may not work.

Before 9.x, it was called MSM (Matrix Storage Manager)

It changed of MSM to RST in the 9.x versions.

10.1 or greater is required for the GPT partitions greater than 2 TB.

9.6 or higher is required for larger than 120 Gig aka advanced format drives.

V9.6 driver Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) and above.

  • Satellite A135-S2356 - BIOS will not identify SATA hard

    Hello everyone, hope you can help out me.

    Got a Satellite A135-2356 opportunity, everything seems fine but BIOS will not identify SATA HDD, shows no disk BIOS downgraded to 1.30, not good, upgraded to 1.40, not good. BIOS has no change/test/detection of HDD/SATA settings options. Tested the drive in another laptop and it reads very well. Received the Toshiba (Vista Basic 32) recovery CD, but given that the BIOS will not read the disk, can't do anything. Cleaned contacts, not good. This HARD disk must be too large, or something for the Board of Directors.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hello Richie

    To be honest, I do not think the disc is too big for your laptop. I can imagine that your laptop can handle with drives of 160 GB too. Unfortunately there is no public document on the possibilities of HARD drive upgrade. I can imagine that ASP in your country has information about such things.

    It's also quite strange that HDD is not recognized correctly. Long ago, I had the same problem. Every time when I used F12 at startup disk HARD were not as boot device. Solution in my case was to upgrade the BIOS to the default settings. I believe that your BIOS has already the default settings, but try to do it again.

  • XPS 8700 will not feed radeon hd 7790

    I bought this computer a month ago and I tried to upgrade the gpu, but it will not produce a video signal. I was able to use the radeon, even in an old pc (Dell Studio since 2009 under win vista) with the same power supply that I use in the XPS (Corsair 500W) specification. I installed both in the XPS specification, but the radeon does not illuminate. I connected the cable 3 x 2 but no luck. I went to the geforce gt 635 which has been installed in the factory and works well for all the components work. I think that the power supply should be more than enough, but I don't see other reasons, it will not work. I tried to install the drivers (and uninstall geforce) before putting the card in as well. I had to use the Corsair PSU because the original 460W did not have a record of 3 x 2. It's the video card:

  • Dell XPS 12 - will not start / turns on after hard reset

    Last night I was with my XPS w12 in laptop mode on battery and he finally went down to 7% of the capacity.  At this point, it turns off the display and I moved my office to connect the power adapter (thinking it would simply turn the display when there was enough power...  The screen never came back (I waited 15-20 minutes), but the battery has been recharged.  At that time, I tried a hard reset by holding the power button for 5 to 10 seconds.

    When I tried to turn it on, nothing happened.  No backlit keyboard, no screen, just the fan.  The light never came the switch either. So I tried an another hard reset with the same results.  I even tried to turn it on with the "D" button held down for on board diagnostics and got nothing more than the start of the fan.

    I thought it might be an overheating problem, so I let it set for an hour and tried again - none other than the fan. It seems that the laptop does not pass the initial diagnosis and not even up to the point where the bios starts to load.

    I really thought that my cell phone was dead and ready for use.  I took it in the office the next day so I could call Dell Support Pro. Just for fun, I plugged with the AC adapter and tried to turn it on - viola!  It started working again.

    I had this problem once before, and he began to work after 2-3 resets hard. I was working on a proposal when the laptop went down. I tried reset hard over a period of 4 hours with no result. It baffles me why it start OK the next day morning.

    I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.  I am running the A07 BIOS (the most common) and my 12 XPS is configured with 8 GB of memory and 256 GB SSD with an i7 and Intel wireless card.

    Any suggestions on this diagnosis? The hardest part is then if fails, the failure is total - you are unable to diagnosis. When she comes back, all right, and there is than any event in the event log that relate to the failure.

    OK - I narrowed down it to the following:

    When the laptop is "asleep", it will finally in power mode. It seems that connect a power adapter for the laptop at this point will enter a State of confusion, when the button is pressed, the laptop fan turns on but no light on the power button or on the keyboard – the screen remains blank.  Laptop fan works (it is very quiet - he must hold the phone to your ear to hear it).

    I don't know if the cause is a low battery or if the issue is simply with the State of the CPU to power down.  All I know is that when it happens, if I disconnect the power adapter and press and hold the power button until the fan of the laptop turns off, the hard reset allows him to come back normally.  If you leave the adapter attached, it will charge the battery but will not allow the laptop start.

    I said this experiment several times with the same result every time. I'm guessing that there is a bug in the BIOS that defines an error state that are resolved with the associated power Board. Do the hard reset without the adapter seems reliable to fix the problem.

  • Windows Media Player 12 will not open or read CD/DVD

    Excuse me, I know that I posted earlier but I accidentally hit the wrong button and it says has answered my question and it was not. I had a virus on my computer and it was cleaned professionally. Now my windows media player will not open. He also will not play a cd/dvd or existing music files on my computer. The icon appears on the screen, but nothing happens when I try to open it. I can't do a system restore because there is nothing to restore, my computer was completely wiped out. Someone suggested this below "Disable media features" reboot and then turn on again. I tried already with no luck. I'm also totally updated everything I could find to put on my computer up-to-date.

    1. click on Start (lower-left) and then on Control Panel.

    2. click on programs and features.

    3. on the left side of the screen, click on 'Windows turn features on or off".

    4. look for the entry called multimedia features and extend it by using the symbol. +.

    5. uncheck the box for Windows Media Player.

    6. click on OK.

    7 restart the PC.

    8. click on Start (lower-left) and then on Control Panel.

    9. click on programs and features.

    10. on the left side of the screen, click on 'Windows turn features on or off".

    11 look for the entry called multimedia features and to extend it using the symbol +.

    12. check the box for Windows Media Player.

    13. click on OK.

    14. restart the PC.

    I was afraid of that - "Configuration parameters can be set wrongly."

    On google, there are a few reports of this error message and I couldn't find any that it is resolved. I hope that someone else will be "the chip" with a solution. I'm sorry.

    There are some media player FixIt who might want to try (I have not had your specific problem and Ive not run the FixIt so can't say for sure).

    You can try things like a SFC/scannow , that can help, but I doubt it. I guess it depends on what the virus.

    You could check that the virus is actually went in downloading, installing, free update (update in the Admin) and running a scan with Malwarebytes , but if it was 'cleaned professionally"should be deleted. But unfortunately things that his attack can still be altered.

    You could try a test, to create a new user account 'test' and the connection through that to see if WMP works from this account. for example, it can be your user profile that has been damaged. If this account works WMP then migrate your data everywhere...

    If all goes well, a WMP expert will come to the rescue.

  • My dv5 Pavilion will not transfer data wireless.

    I have a Pavilion dv5 with Windows 7 and an Atheros AF5009. A few days ago it stopped transfer of wireless Internet data suddensly. Here are the gory details-

    • The computer connects to the wireless router
    • Other devices connect to the router
    • The connection is presented as "strong".
    • Corresponding IP addresses between the router and the computer
    • I have reset TCP/IP with no luck
    • I disconnected and then reconnected the adapter
    • I restarted the router
    • I reconnected manually to ensure that the security passwords and settings are OK
    • I've disabled the firewall, virus protection, etc. (they are now back, of course) no luck here.
    • Ethernet connection works fine
    • Web sites will not download
    • When I run a ping test between the router and the computer test fails, even if the computer shows as "active".
    • I'm totally stumped!

    My best guess is that the wireless adapter has a problem, or the parameters or otherwise.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hi, Roger:

    It seems to me that you done everything but run the system restore utility and update the driver.

    First try the system restore utility, and then select a restore to a date point, you know that your INTERNET access is working.

    If this resolves the problem, then update the driver for your wireless card.

    This is the latest driver for your card:

    If none of the above works, I tend to believe that the card has been to kind of hardware failure.

  • LR 4 will not identify the 2nd hard disk in the source during import?

    I run 2 hard drives in my PC. A disc is only for programs. And the largest are for photos/music. When I go to import the source the left pane will not recognize the drive B:, C: drive only and he will recognize even my M: drive with is my outside. Im not sure what to do at this point to add the B: drive to the source. Thank you

    It is sometimes useful if you put a "fictitious" picture on a disk via Win Explorer. So, try this first and see if your player appears.

    If this does not help:

    Letter B is not a good choice for a player on a PC. It's because of the ol-old time when drive letters A and B were reserved for the disc x6.25 "(A) and the floppy disk drive (B).

    That's why the first drive in PC today is always named c. (letter)

    And, I don't know maybe that Lr does not recognize the drive letters A and B. So rename your drive B to the D drive.

    Do this in the Windows Control Panel > system and security > administrative tools > computer Nortsk > disk management. In the lower window where it shows your drives, highlight the drive in question and then go > Action > all tasks > change drive letter and path.

    For more information, open in your control panel and in the search box, type .
