You can start on a hard disk, Ultrabay? (T510)

I think with the purchase of a new SSD.  If I move my current HARD drive to ultrabay housing, can I start off of it if I want to?

Yes, you just select from the start menu, or set it as the startup disk in the bios.

  • You can use a virtual hard disk with a live linux iso (persistent) invited?

    If I format a virtual hard drive with gparted and then mount it, it becomes impossible to restart the client. Attempt to restart blocks upward with a blank screen, as if it does not find the bootable media.

    Restart fails even after specifying the CD drive as a boot device in the BIOS as described here:

    OK, everything works with the boot order in the BIOS set CD-ROM at the top.  I have to use the screen to reset the BIOS incorrectly. Thanks for the help.

    Hi dynamitenews

     

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
    2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

     

    You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

    Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.

    BIOS WARNING-
    Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

     

    I hope this helps.

    Hello

    The HARD drive should be placed on the left side of the laptop.
    I think that it of one near the port of slot and PCMCIA modem.
    At the bottom of the unit, you should find a screw holding the cover of the HARD drive.
    Remove the two black screws and lift the cover of the HARD drive location.
    Remove the two black screws, secure the HARD drive into the HARD drive slot.
    Grasp the HARD-drive carrier handle and pull forward to disconnect and remove the
    HARD DRIVE.
    Remove the four screws flat head of the HARD-drive bracket and lift the HARD drive.

    That s all ;)

  • Had to reinstall my CS3 because of faulty hard drive. It does not accept my serial number as it says it is already used the maximum number of activations and says I should turn off. I can't as the hard disk failed! Please help.

    Had to reinstall my CS3 because of faulty hard drive. It does not accept my serial number as it says it is already used the maximum number of activations and says I should turn off. I can't as the hard disk failed! Please help.

    Have already tried to contact Adobe and they told me to reinstall the program. I did this and the same issue. It's crazy. I can not turn off something that I did not more...

    Thank you.

    No - I had, of course, tried all these things. Finally, I had someone (after several days) on the personal chat group that could fix and it did it in a few minutes. Too bad that nobody else seemed to be able to do. Adobe is very soft.

    I can't thank enough the other person - it was amazing.

  • You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

    I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

    You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

  • Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start with mounted HARD disk?

    Hello
    I have tried several disks in my Satellite Pro 480CDT, but none of them starts. The screen stays black and the power led blinks orange (long, short, short, short, short, long, short, short). If I drive the machine past the on-screen "In Touch With tomorrow, TOSHIBA. He sees Windows CD-ROM or a floppy disk. I tried with 6 hard drives all below to 6 GB and AFAIK the work. I tried with another 480CDT a 220CS and a 2140CDS. Surely all hard drives and computers laptops have the same flaw? What I need to update BIOS or something as none of the drives are original for the machines.
    Help, please!
    Thank you

    John.

    Hi John

    I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. When the electronic power supply detects a power problem, it sends the hex code. In this case you should contact the technicians. They can read this code and will know what the problem is here.

    Just FYI: I discovered this disc HARD original for this unit has the P000244000 part number. Maybe it will help you get another HARD drive for testing.

    Sorry I can't tell you more info on this good old classic.

    Hello

    1. you are trying to attach an internal hard drive?

    You may need to contact the device manufacturer for more information on the physical connection and the BIOS (Basic input output) configuration when you fix the hard disk.

    Note:

    BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Once you configure the hard drive in the BIOS, you can consult the links below for more information about how to partition and format a hard disk using the Windows XP Setup program

  • How can I remove a hard disk to the raid set default and replace it with a new one

    Last Friday apparently began one of my raid drives failing.

    As I said on this forum I started having continuous beep.

    I was finally able to get the raid works at a degraded level.  I ordered a replacement hard drive, that happened today.

    (In the meantime, I made twice daily backups of my work...)

    Below is the message that I have the raid of browser-based software:

    Blahblah 09 1000,2 GB RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ

    Blahblah 10 GB 1000,2 free SamSung HD103SJ

    Blahblah 11 1000,2 GB RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ

    Blahblah 12 GB 1000,2 RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ

    (See this thread sooner if you wish!)

    http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/727867?TSTART=0


    At any given time when I did the checked the browser interface, I have seen the message failed and degraded

    As I said, I was able to work this weekend on the degraded system.

    This morning I had the new tone and made the rescue and now I use a "full raid" without the advice that a raid was 'free '.

    In all cases, the new drive arrived today.

    Should what precautions I take to integrate the new drive in the raid system.

    I have an OS disk

    and raid 4 TB drives.   One needs to be replaced with the new one I get today.

    Thank you

    Rowby,

    You currently have your background priority set to 20% IIRC, so it will take time to rebuild, but probably a lot less than 24 hours as for new construction. Even with 20% defined, I guess that it will be done in less than 12 hours, but you can set the background priority to 50% and it will be much faster at the expense of access to your raid. Reconstruction of the background is designed to give you access to all your data files and to continue the work, while the data is being rebuilt. You can continue your work, so if it takes 8 or 12 hours to find the full data intergrity isn't all that relevant. Your aura a functional slower than with a raid reaction complete, but has more speed than a single disk.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A40 - can I change the HARD disk or the same model?

    Hi Forum,

    do I have to wait for safe trouble by changing the hard disk between the following laptops:

    old or damaged laptop:
    SPA40 model PSA45E - 0013T - number GR
    Series No. 34127882 H

    new/own laptop
    SPA40 PSA45E-001VM-GR model number
    Series N0.34117607H

    Thanks in advance for your advice

    Concerning

    You can do it. No problem at all. Hard drives are not specific model of laptop parts and with hard drives is important compatibility.
    On the new laptop, which you can use different hard drives. Important is that use you compatible HARD drive.

    Just do it. After Exchange of HARD drive install Os again and everything will be OK.

  • Satellite A300-1ND - can I use SATA2 HARD disk?

    Hello.
    Is there a place to upgrade A300-1NDs SATA HDD hard drive SATA2? I know that SATA2 is faster and is backward compatible with SATA, but do not know if the laptop would be able to use the full speed of SATA2.

    THX all

    Hello

    As Akuma has already said the s normal HARD disk with 5400 or 7200 RPM are not due the old interface SATA1.
    The speed of your drive you can check yourself with HD Tune for example. I think that your HARD drive will not reach the 150 Mbps.  ;)

    The new SATA2 interface is compatible with SATA1 controllers, but it won't bring a performance gain.
    Only the new generation of SSD also called HARD disk s can use fast SATA2 interface but these drives are more expensive than normal HDD s.

    Good bye

  • You can use an external hard drive with iPad Pro

    A disk external drive can be used with an iPad Pro?

    You can do it wirelessly with devices such as Wireless Connect from Sandisk stick.

    https://www.SanDisk.com/home/mobile-device-storage/connect-wireless-stick

    There are other devices that run a similar feature, but the Sandisk Connect is incredibly portable and usable also as a USB drive (even if it is a USB 2.0 device).  It is now available in capacities of 16 GB to 200 GB.

    I don't know of anyway to connect an iPad Pro on an external drive via a wired connection... Although it may be possible.

  • Satellite P100-307 - is - I can change the internal HARD disk 500 GB model?

    Hello

    I am a beginner and I would trade my internal 200 GB of HARD drive against a 500 GB Samsung HDD. I have a Satellite P100-307.
    Is this possible at all?

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Hello

    Theoretically, it should be possible to use 500 GB laptop HARD drive. He already has SATA interface and it would mean that there is no limit of capacity as on the old IDE interface.

    So, you can buy every 2.5 HARD drive SATA interface. It makes no difference if you buy A manufacturing or B. It of your choice!

    You can give us feedback operation ;)
