Yes. You will have to reformat it with the disk utility though.

Can I put a 3TB hard drive?

I have an AirPort Extreme in place a USB 1TB hard drive and my question is. Can I put a 3TB hard drive?

3TB is no problem.. you will need to format it on the Mac HFS+ ie Mac OS extended journaled. Don't try using FAT32 etc for such a large drive.

About how many CDs can I put on my hard drive before it effects the performance of me iMac/

About how many CDs can I put on my hard drive before they effect the performance of my imac?

Well, it depends on how much content is on the CD. You should have, at a minimum 10 - 15 GB of empty hard drive space at all times - more is much better. I do a fair amount of video/graphics editing and in order to render and burn properly, I need at least as much empty hard drive space as I have files in my current project, which usually means at least 150 GB or more. So, to be safe, my goal is to have a minimum of 250 GB empty space at all times - the OS will thank you if it has more room to work with.
So, add up what you want to put there and keep watching your hard drive space diiminish - it's best to have space hogging files on an external hard drive to keep your internal working well.

How do I take ownership of a hard drive build in windows but installed as an additional disk in my new Mac Pro?

How do I take ownership of a hard drive build in windows but installed as an additional disk in my new Mac Pro?
I bought a Mac and have various HDDs, some Portable some SATA, I can right to them and dont seem to be able to take ownership of them, is this to do with the format or Security seting I can't find?
Any help would be great; thanks.
Stephen

Thanks Kaz-K, this was what I assumed it to be. I have started to move the stuf over to a 4GB internal drive, once done and verified, I will reformat the drive and move it back, blooming nusience.
Cheers.

Can I put a 1tb hard drive in my MacBook 4,1?

Hello everyone. I was wondering if I can put a 1tb hard drive in my MacBook 4,1. I'm not sure if I have the early 2008 or late 2008 model. Anyway I found a hard drive that meets the physical requirements of my computer but my question is will it work? I am currently runing snow leopard. Thanks.

The following is quoted from Section 700.10.c of the Magnussen-Moss Warranty Act:
(c) No warrantor may condition the continued validity of a warranty on the use of only authorized repair service and/or authorized replacement parts for non-warranty service and maintenance. For example, provisions such as, “This warranty is void if service is performed by anyone other than an authorized ‘ABC’ dealer and all replacement parts must be genuine ‘ABC’ parts,” and the like, are prohibited where the service or parts are not covered by the warranty. These provisions violate the Act in two ways. First, they violate the section 102 (c) ban against tying arrangements. Second, such provisions are deceptive under section 110 of the Act, because a warrantor cannot, as a matter of law, avoid liability under a written warranty where a defect is unrelated to the use by a consumer of “unauthorized” articles or service. This does not preclude a warrantor from expressly excluding liability for defects or damage caused by such “unauthorized” articles or service; nor does it preclude the warrantor from denying liability where the warrantor can demonstrate that the defect or damage was so caused.

Can I put a 2nd hard drive in my Satellite P875-S7200 laptop??

There appears to be a space underneath for another one so I have to ask. Can I put another hard drive in this laptop or not? I'm not going to buy another hard drive for this thing if I can't.
Please see the attached photo.
Thank you.

There are a couple of ways to run DISKPART. The most common method is probably from within the CMD console:
Start Menu, enter cmd in the search field, and then click on the CMD icon in the search result section.
Once the CMD console window launches, enter diskpart
Or you can access DISKPART directly from the "run" dialog:
<win>r    (then in the "run" dialog field,) enter   diskpart
Here's a screencap of the DISKPART Clean command. I inserted one of my Flash sticks (disk 3) and ran the Clean command on it.
The system info is in green color. My input commands are in blue.
Microsoft DiskPart version 6.1.7601
Copyright (C) 1999-2008 Microsoft Corporation.
On computer: JEFF-PC
DISKPART> list disk
Disk ### Status         Size     Free     Dyn Gpt
Disk 0    Online          931 GB      0 B
Disk 1    Online          465 GB      0 B
Disk 2    Online          465 GB   100 MB
Disk 3    Online           14 GB      0 B
DISKPART> select disk 3
Disk 3 is now the selected disk.
DISKPART> list disk
Disk ### Status         Size     Free     Dyn Gpt
Disk 0    Online          931 GB      0 B

Disk 2    Online          465 GB   100 MB
* Disk 3    Online           14 GB      0 B
DISKPART> clean
DiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.
DISKPART>
That's it. I always repeat the "list disk" command after selecting the desired disk to eliminate user error (accidentally wiping the wrong HDD). The * symbol tells the user which disk is in focus, or which disk the system has selected for the user commands to be performed on the disk.
The Clean command usually takes only a few seconds to complete.
After running the Clean command, the HDD or Flash Stick will then appear as "unallocated" in the Disk Management Console window. I always do this before Cloning with my Acronis boot disc since Acronis will automatically select the unallocated HDD as the "Target" HDD. It also eliminates any question when selecting the Source HDD since the Target HDD will appear in Acronis (and any other Cloning/Imaging prep dialog screens) as containing no data.
Another way to be safe in DISKPART and assure that the desired disk is the one that you want to clean, is to launch Disk Management in Windows at the same time that DISKPART is launched, using <win>r diskmgmt.msc
The PC's disks will be numbered the same as in DISKPART. For example, "disk 0" is my OS and "C" HDD, etc.
Wish I could help with your Driver issues. That's an area of PC's where I'm a rookie

Can i put a bigger hard drive in my intel imac?

Hi,
Is it possible to replace the internal hard drive in my 17" imac Intel core duo for a larger capacity drive?
I did this on the first gen G5 imac ok but i'm not sure about the intel model, i was thinking of a 250gb or something.
What type of drive would it be, 3.5" SATA?

Where can I put in more hard drive space on my laptop around Waterloo, Ont?

Hello, I was wondering, where can I get more hard drive space on my laptop, so then I can install Boot camp and still have enough space left for my other stuff. I don't want to loose too much space, I already lost about 9.7 GB to installing Leopard.
Does anyone live in Waterloo, Ontario?

I'm currently a student at the University of Waterloo (2B term starts in September). Here are some options for you:
1) Canada Computers at King/University.
2) CampusTech at UW
3) IST help desk at UW (for UW students only, I think)
Canada Computers is right at the corner of King/Uni. It's on the northwest corner of the intersection, slightly north of University. Look for a blue sign with yellow type within a 30 second walk north of the intersection. They sell all kinds of computer hardware, although they may or may not be able to do the actual transplant for you.
CampusTech is at the Student Life Centre, on the bottom floor (basement). Ask anyone at UW and they'll tell you how to find it. They're "Official Mac Certified", but I don't believe they sell hard drives. I bought my MacBook there and they did a RAM upgrade for me and so far it works well.
The CHIP (Computer Help Information Place) is on the 1st floor (basement) of the Math building at UW. You may have to be a Math student to use them, and if you're not under warranty they may charge you, but I had a problem with my keyboard shortly after buying my MacBook and went there and they fixed it for me. They have really short hours, though, so if you have a day job, this is probably not the best option.

HT1420 I have a number of devices linked to a single iTunes account. Of these devices, two of the originals were computers whose hard drives failed and I was unable to die authorise them before the failure occurred. Is there a way of deauthorising them on

I have a number of devices linked to a single iTunes account. Of these devices, one was a laptop whose hard drive failed, and one was an iPad which died. My question is if it is possible to remotely deauthorise these devices or is it necessary to deauthorise all devices on the account and then reauthorise those devices which are still current.
Thanks
Tan Anu

iPads don't count in the number of authorisations, only computers count. Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but if you have 2 or more computers authorised then you can 'deauthorise all' (which you can only do once every 12 months) and you can then reauthorise the computers that you still have and need (deauthorising a computer doesn't remove any content from it).

I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space

I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space.

I haven't done this with an external drive, but I would imagine it works the same way as if you have multiple internal drives. Also hopefully it works with less headache in OSX than in windows.
Anyway, move all your music over to your external, and then go into itunes -> preferences -> advanced -> iTunes media folder location. Navigate to your drive, and pick the folder you want. Ensure that your folders are set up like they are in your ~/Music/iTunes folder, or wherever your iTunes is currently pointing. Then quit and restart itunes. If your music doesn't show up, try dragging your music folder from your external onto itunes, and it will hopefully update your library.xml.
As far as Jerry's problem goes, you could try adding another music folder to your library.xml, but I really have no idea whether this will work or not. If you want to give it a try (can't promise you won't corrupt your library.xml, so make a copy beforehand) you can find the music folder xml element right near the top of the xml file (open it with textedit/textmate/whatever text editor you want (NOT WORD)). Curious to know if this works, and if it doesn't I have other ideas so let me know.
