Z210 / z420 - 4 TB drive HARD problem?

Hello

I had this problem on an z210 as well as z420. Tried to install WD BLACK 4 TB of HARD drive in these systems - Bios recognizes 4 TB - but Windows 8 shows that 1, 7TB available to fit. HARD drive is initialized with TPG.

Someone also had this problem? Or does anyone know how to get these drives 4 TB working in HP workstations?

Thank you

Andreas Schnederle-Wagner

Solution: I had to install the latest Intel RST Driver (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=23060&ProductFamily=Software+Products&ProductLine=Chipset+Software&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Rapid+Storage+Technology+%28Intel%C2%AE+RST%29&lang=eng) - seems like 4TB drives won't work with the driver Version HP distributes for their Workstations?!?

  • New drive hard problems

    Guys,

    I wonder if someone can help me.

    I need to add additional hard disks to several virtual machines and use the vSphere PowerCLI v5.1 against a vCenter Server running 5.1.0b.  When I try to add the disc using the cmdlet new-hard drive, I get the following error:

    New-harddisk: all parameters can be solved using the specified named parameters.

    On line: 1 char: 13

    + new hard drive < < < < - vm WinXpMstr - capacityGB 100 - diskpath "[MV] WinXPMstr/1234.vmdk".

    + CategoryInfo: InvalidArgument: (:)) [new-harddisk], ParameterBindingException)

    The full syntax of the command to run is:

    new drive hard vm - WinXPMstr - capacityGB 100 - diskpath "[MV] WinXPMstr/1234.vmdk".

    Thank you

    You mix the different parametersets of the cmdlet New - hard drive settings.

    In your case CapacityGB and DiskPath cannot be used together.

  • Western Digital drive hard problem

    I have a western digital HDD (WD1200U017-000 model number) that is not recognized by Windows Vista. It was recognized and work earlier, but is no longer working. I tried to re-boot and unplug several times. I know that the camera itself is functional because it works on other machines running windows XP. I just bought this new computer with Windows Vsta last week, I checked for updates and installed all of them.   The hard drive does not load all or appear in Device Manager. The site digital Western said that Vista should provide a driver automatically.

    I had the same problem with the same 2.5 "laptop (DND: wd1200u017-000) device. I'm using win7 x 64 op system. I've tried all what WD site suggested, but nothing has worked. I tried win automatic troubleshooting, too, but it has not worked.  Computer restart, disconnected-plugging device, driver update internet or win dirivers haven't worked.

    After that, I found a solution, which worked in my case.

    I went to the Device Manager and looked for hard drive devices. I found one called unknown device or anything else. I chose option to remove, unplugged the unit, then plugged in again, and it started working. If you do not in the Device Manager list, perhaps it does not work on your computer. (I use no adapter cable. single USB cable).

  • Western Digital drive hard problem; Forced to Format

    I have been using an external hard drive Western Digital Home Edition 500 GB with Windows Vista for more than 8 months without any problem.  Recently, I used the hard drive on a computer running Windows XP (also without any problem).  Now, the hard drive does not open on Windows Vista.  It is recognized in my computer, but when I try to open the location she reads, 'the drive must be formatted before use".  The drive still works under Windows XP.  I would rather not format it, because I didn't save my data :(

    102,

    First of all, make sure that it is not the hardware on your computer:

    1.) try all USB ports on the machine in question with the external hard drive

    2.) try other USB devices on the machine as well. You get the same result?

    Sometimes this is also caused by software conflicts. Anything to be downloaded or installed recently?

    It can also be caused by the power surges that occur in your home. Thunderstorms through here lately? Do you use a surge protector?
    If everything else seems to work very well, another cause can also be a virus. Update your virus definitions, then run a full system scan. Thank you, Jeremy M - Support Engineer

  • Desktop computer drive HARD problems, won't load after the splash screen only in black

    Hi, I hope someone here can help me. I have HP Pavilion dv2000 laptop I had for nearly 4 years. These last 4-6 months I get questions such as getting the BSOD (usually unmountable_boot_volume) and excessive delay/hanging while working. I was able to fix these with chkdsk and sfc since no virus was detected. But I couldn't make the successful restore points as they always disappear.

    But last night I forced him to close due to the hanging again and rebooted, it upward to get "a disk read error has occurred. Press ctrl + alt + del to restart"only to receive the same message again. Not far enough, he won't do a chkdsk or sfc. So I went to use my bootable usb key with a recovery console to run chkdsk, startup repair and sfc. He managed to get through the bios and was able to connect to my computer, but it would not load the office. It's just a black screen with my cursor. Going even in safe mode it will appoint the task bar, but soon, to get an error "windows Explorer has stopped working".

    I don't know what to do anymore. It would be great if I can just get into my HARD drive one last time. I've saved most of my files knowing he would die on me, except a few files and just need to run once more to save them. Would appreciate any help, please!

  • Caddy drive HARD Lenovo B50-80 problem

    I bought an SSD in order to exchange it and original drive HARD laptop but when I connect the box HARD drive, bios does not recognize the original HHD in the caddy. Does anyone know why it can summer happening?

    There is a problem with the help of an SSD / HARD drive in some laptops optical Bay (no brand is safe) and it seems to point to the chipset expecting to see a STRANGE on this port and only an ODD.

    When you install or use any other player, he is unable to access the way it waits and causes the machine to hold on to this moment here.

    This is the best that I was able to get outside of the redesign of the interface to conform to a SATA plug-and-play and hot plug specification.

    My advice to those who seek to replace the STRANGE with an SSD or a drive is to contact the manufacture, talk with their tech line and see if it has been done successfully with your model in the past and what it takes to get there.

    Good luck.

  • Drive hard internal not found to fix this problem, try reinstalling the drive

    So I get the error message: internal hard drive not found to fix this problem try reinstalling the drive

    Once I got the error, I removed my 1 TB HARD drive and replaced by a 525 GB SSD and I still get the error. After testing the original 1 TD drive HARD, has nothing wrong with him, so it seems to be something wrong with the computer itself.

    I ran the PSA test and it does not detect any problems with the hard drive and no other errors.

    What could be?

  • HP Pavilion DV6-3041TX drive HARD failure and possible design Intel series 6 Chipset problem

    Hey guys

    I saw corruption serious hdd on my system for some time now and was just move to replace the drive hard when I came across the problem of design of Intel® chipsets. Now, I think that my system is the range of serial number for this question and as the current drive does not start, I can't check the Device Manager to see if the chipset is one of those affected.

    Is there anyway for me to check this from a USB bootable or something similar, because I don't want to have to go through the effort to replace the hard drive and reinstall windows just to find the chipset is wrong?

    Thank you

    (Now, this is my first post on the forum if I appoilgise if I've got this in the wrong place)

    Open the door of the memory on the bottom of the laptop and look under the memory for a number of motherboard.

    You should have the Intel HM55 chipset, but we can be sure that if we know the motherboard part number.

    You should have one of these two tips:

    Drive hard short DST failed when I did the start of F1 tests...

    WHAT CAN I DO?

    Hello

    Error code 24 characters for short drive Self Test (DST) would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP (with 24 character code) and arrange for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

    If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

    If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, please let me know - include the full model number and your notebook series m6 Nr - see here for an explanation.

  • TouchSmart 300 Windows 7, re - install on hard drive replacement problem. Help!

    I have official restore for my Touchsmart 300 disks and try to get it back on a hard drive, which I took from another machine. Drive hard said have left include Win 7 and Win XP. When I try to boot from the recovery CD, I am taken to the old hard drive Artemision boot menu, not the installation of the recovery disc. If I continue on this path there, I get an error message and a suggestion from my hard drive is damaged. Repair disk option can fix anything. Recovery Console doesn't help either. Why the CD read and overwrite all the old stuff on the hard drive?

    It is a good idea.

    They can have tools or diagnostic we individuals have no which can isolate the cause.

  • Use iMac drive HARD internal for storage only.

    I initialize my iMac to an external SSD. It makes my computer run faster. How can I completely wipe the drive HARD internal of my iMac and use it as a storage only?

    This isn't a big problem, except one. Apple does not support this method as a permanent solution. However, you have an iMac of 2012. I have a Mac Mini from 2012. I used a 1 to LaCie Thunderbolt Rugged HD to do this thing very via the Thunderbolt port. It worked very well for a while. Personally, I started my primary internal HD for OS X and the LaCie Thunderbolt as external storage. For reasons of registration and so on. Recovery of the Internet, as well. I have not found any major difference in the "boot speed" between internal or external HD. I upgraded the RAM of 4 GB to 16 GB all. and BAM!

    My HD Thunderbolt is partitioned as a time Capsule (1st partition bootable) and Mac Storage (2nd partition). The choice is yours, of course.

    Bravo!
