Seagate

Dear Sir / Madam,
I have to install a ST336807LW hard-disk in a Sun Ultrasparc 5 workstation (that does not support LBA) wih Solaris 2.6. as operating system. The disk is recognised, but I cannot mount it because when I execute the "format" command I receive an error message and a "core" file is installed in the directory "/dev/rdsk". Could you please tell me what is the reason for this? I have installed other Seagate disks and the workstation has been working fine.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I want to ask a few questions, first.
Please gather the following items of information and paste them back into this discussion thread.
... run the following commands:
<b>uname -a
prtconf -V</b>
describe the following:
are there any adapter cards installed?
are there any external peripherals, and what are those peripherals?
That will help us to begin to understand the computer system a little bit better.
By the way, LBA has no relationship with what may be occurring.
That's a PC thing.

  • Using a seagate external drive with multiple macs

    i got a 1TB seagate external hard drive for backup and transfer purposes... it had a little program to help set it up and i set it up for use with mac and pc ( only onther option was stricty this computer.) it works on my computer and a pc but when i tried transfering files from another older mac i have it showed that i could only read on that computer...
    how can i get it to work with multiple macs...?

    I have the oldest macbook (1.83. 2 gigs ram, 60 gig internal hard drive)
    I have all my logic content on my external maxtor firewire 400 drive (usb 2.0 is actually faster than firewire 400) and everything is fine. the good thing is if your external drive has 7200rpm, but the ones with 5600rpm should do as well.
    Once you drag your apple loops to logic from your external drive, logic will remember for the next visit. And when you are opening a project which is on the external drive , just find it with logic finder and all should be fine.

  • Seagate external drive not recognized

    Seagate Back Up Plus external drive is no longer recognized by my Macbook Pro. There were no warnings or prompts just one day was no longer recognized by Finder, Disk Utility and Disc Warrior can't see it either. I can hear the whirring sound of it starting up when plugged in to my computer. Any ideas how to get it back?

  • I recently purchase macbook air with OS 10.10.2. I want to use my Seagate external backup plus hard drive for time machine back up. How to partition my 1TB Seagate back up plus hard drive for use with mac and windows pc?

    Hi All,
    I recently purchased 13" Macbook Air with OS 10.10.2. I want to use my 1TB Seagate backup plus external hard drive as time machine and my windows 7 pc. Please suggest a method. Thanks in advance for your reply.

    I strongly recommend having an external drive dedicated solely for TimeMachine. You could partition the drive but if something goes wrong you risk losing the data on both partitions. Should you decide to go ahead with splitting the drive for two different uses you’ll need to partition the drive either using the Mac’s built in Disk Utility program or Windows utility. I believe the built in Windows disk utility program will destroy the current partition and erase the data that’s on it - I use a third party Windows disk utility program for partitioning and it allows for non-destructive partitioning but warns to back up data first just in case. Apple’s Disk Utility can do non-destructive partitions but I don’t recall every trying to do a non-destructive partition on a disk originally formatted for Windows using it. Again - back up that data just in case.
    Finally, your TimeMachine drive should be at least 1.5 times (I prefer 2 times) the size of the data you expect to be backing up a year or two from now.  In other words, if you currently are using 50GB of your computer’s drive but expect to begin purchasing Mac software to replace software on your Windows computer and if you expect to be putting photos, music, and other data on it you might expect that two years from now you’ll have 100GB of stuff on the drive. So a 200GB partition is the smallest size you’d want.  TM’s backup scheme keeps multiple copies of data as it changes so the extra room is important for this scheme.

  • Seagate external hard drive -- should I format and partition?

    Hi all,
    Sorry, three weeks into owning my MacBook Pro, I'm still a newbie.
    I got rid of PCs because they just kept grinding to a halt, and so I want to do everything EXACTLY right as I start out in Macworld.
    I need to get an external drive for Time Machine and other back-ups. Is it generally accepted by you all that the drive should be formatted (to get rid of whatever Seagate puts on it) and then partitioned along the lines of Answer #5 in the Time Machine FAQ? Is that what most people do -- with good results?
    Thank you.

    If the Time Machine FAQ recommends something, I'd do it.
    By the way, if you're going to use that drive for Time Machine and "other back-ups", I'd create separate partitions for each of those two uses.

  • Recently my keyboard on my macbook pro died. i backed up the machine to my Seagate 500GB hard drive, successfully, and sent the notebook in for repairs. Now that the macbook is repaired, i can read from the seagate, but not write to it. It says read only.

    Recently my Macbook Pro's keyboard failed. Using my wireless keyboard, i managed to backup everything to my 500gb Seagate external hard drive. I sent the machine in, had the keyboard repaired, and now the machine is back, and i am loading my content back onto the macbook. My problem is that the drive is now read only, and i have searched for all the obvious fixes. The lock on the permissions secion of the info block on the drive. (not present). I have even tried disk utility, but all the options are greyed out.
    I am a graphic designer, and so i use my external drive extensively to move artwork around, so it is important that i can make it writable. It worked perfectly on this very same machine, two weeks ago, and nothing has changed on the drive, so i can only assume it is a software issue on the operating system.
    I have read through all the forums, etc, and can find nothing that works. I am loath to change anything on the drive, as it was working perfectly on this system before the system went in for its repair.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • When using a Seagate 1T external hard drive and Time Machine to back up hourly, if I delete photo files from the Mac hard drive before the next back up, are these retained on the Seagate drive or will they be lost (overwritten) in the next backu in the ne

    Does Time Machine erase previously saved files if, say, photos are deleted from the Macbook upon the next update, or will they be stored indefinately despite the current status of the files stored on the computer? Eg. can I bckup photo files to a Seagate 1T disc and then delete them to make more room on the computer in the knowlwdge that they are always going to be on the Seagate disc? Sorry if this is very elementary but I have not used a back up before like this, and am not sure how successive backups are overlaid or retained. Thanks!!

    TM is not designed to do what you ask. As Allan wrote TM is an incremental backup not an archival solution.
    If you delete a file from the HD it will eventually be removed from the TM backup (if it ever makes it on to the backup at all).
    How long before it is removed depends on a number of factors, TM disk drive size being one factor but not the only one.
    Material that is impossible to replace and is important to you (image files usually fitting that description) need to be backed up to as least one other drive and preferably more for long term storage.

  • External Seagate drive suddenly "not readable" by iMac

    I'm having a problem with a Seagate Backup Plus external desktop hard drive.
    It was working fine, but then I restarted my computer and got a window with the error message:  "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer." and options to Initialize…, Ignore, or Eject.
    I rebooted my computer a few times, and each time I get the same error message.  When I open Disk Utility, I see the hard drive listed in the side bar, but it is not mounted and will not mount.  Each time it is labeled something like "disk2s2," "disk10s2" or "disk6s2," etc.  That changes slightly each time like that, but seems to always begin with "disk" and end with "s2."
    I ran repair disk and got the following result:
    The drive is about three months old.  I think it did something like this when I first bought it (I remember seeing the "disk2s2" label in the Disk Utility sidebar), but restarting solved it then.  Now it seems to keep happening every time I restart.
    I would really appreciate any help or information any of you can provide.

    External hard drive spontaneously unmounted? Try these tips:
    NEW FIRMWARE: Try updating your external hard drive's firmware, which is available from your drive manufacturers Web site--or just use VersionTracker's (www.versiontracker.com) search function to find it. Be sure to back up your data before applying the update, and carefully follow the manufacturers instructions.
    OUT OF iSIGHT: If you're using an iSight camera while you're using a FireWire drive, the camera may be interfering with the drive's ability to stay mounted. Try temporarily disconnecting your iSight and moving it to a separate FireWire port. If you have multiple FireWire devices, try using a FireWire hub.
    POWER PROBLEM: A faulty power adapter could be causing your drive to unmount. Your drive may not be getting enough juice to stay on, causing the drive to turn off and thereby unmounting it from your Mac. Alternately, the power adapter may not be providing a steady amount of power, causing your drive to turn on and off. Try replacing the adapter. If you can't get a replacement adapter from the hard drive manufacturer, try your local electronics store. Just make sure the adapter you choose has the same connector and input/output voltage. you can find the input/output voltage on the adapter itself.
    Cheers!

  • Help! how to apply Seagate hard-drive update from DVD drive on G4 Powermac

    Short version of story:
    Just put Sonnet PCI SATA card in G4 Digital Audio Powermac running Tiger. Have replaced two IDE drives with *Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1 TB hard drive*. It's recognized and working fine. EXCEPT: this is the now infamous drive ST31000340AS that WILL most certainly fail if it does not get the firmware update that Seagate has made available. (These drives are failing like crazy-- Google for info, do not buy!) I have the firmware update on CD as an ISO file (of course Seagate makes nothing that it Mac friendly but this has worked for other Mac users). But when I try to flash the firmware by starting from the CD ("C" key held down), nothing happens. The G4 just goes ahead and starts Tiger 10.4.11. I have also tried holding down "O + F + option + control on start up. I'm not getting anywhere.
    Since the drive is functional and it's the only drive in the G4, what am I doing wrong? Help!

    I just got off the phone with Seagate who say that while my model numbers are the affected drives, my two drives have serial numbers that do NOT need a firmware update. (Yet!)
    However, I'm not feeling very lucky. I took these two drives from my Maxtor One Touch III 2 TB external hard-drive because it was failing intermittently-- "now you see me, now you don't." Not very good for a backup drive! But Maxtor/Seagate is providing nothing for Maxtor One Touch III owners under warranty but another refurbished (as in previously failed) Maxtor One Touch III and asking hundreds of dollar$ for data recovery. There is not even a firmware update at this point. People should be avoiding Seagate Barracuda drives (these used to be the best of the best, but not now) or at least researching them *very thoroughly* before buying.
    I guess, the good news is that I don't have to struggle with getting a firmware update to work on my PowerMac. Though thanks to you both I will know what to do if these drives eventually do need a firmware update. The other good news is that I got all my data back by pulling the drives from their enclosure which apparently causes overheating. I violated my warranty, pulled the drives, and got all my data back.
    At the moment both of my Barracuda drives are happily purring away in my PowerMac G4 giving that old baby 2 Tb to play with. (I use iPartition so getting the drives recognized on the G4 isn't a problem.) And since I have my new iMac 3.06ghz 24" with all my data backup on WD external drives, I will only use the G4 networked for extra storage (backup for my backup). (I am also using Disk Warrior and Data Rescue II to keep an eye on these drives.)
    Thanks again for the advice.

    MOST IMPORTANT - If you have a reasonable suspicion that you may have an affected drive - do not power the unit off - make fresh backups immediately. The power-on process is what triggers the failure.

  • Am using Macbook pro mid 2010 running on OSX 10.9.5. It does not read my old Seagate back up plus ITB ext hard disk which opens and works on snow leopard. The back ups were made on snow leopard and mountain lion. How do I make it work on Mavericks?

    I have been making back ups on a Seagate Back up plus drive on a macbook pro running on Mountain lion. Sadly the mac was stolen and all I had was the seagate back up. I tried opening it on my old iMac running on snow leopard and after several visits to this forum managed to open it. The data was safe and sound. Now I have received a hand me down macbook pro which runs on osx 10.9.5. I'm assuming there is a compatability issue as the drive does not come on at all when I hook it up to the usb port. I checked the seagate drive once again on the imac and its light came on on that system. Then I suspected there may be a problem with this macbook pro usb port. But it seemed to work fine when i hooked my camera cord into it. Is it that I must reinstall mavericks. In which case how do I back up before reformatting or reinstalling. BTW I did the command+ R thingy and repaired my internal Hard disc which was showing errors. What do I do next, your help is most appreciated if you have had a similar problem.

    Your 2010 MBP would be able to handle Yosemite, but I would strongly suggest that you get the current problem sorted out before trying to upgrade to Yosemite. I'd also recommend another backup that isn't created by Time Machine if you are thinking of upgrading. SuperDuper and CarbonCopyCloner can make bootable clones of hard drives. If you clone your existing system to a fresh external drive, you would be able to boot from that drive and recover quickly in the event that your Yosemite upgrade didn't work out. Time Machine backups are not 100% reliable.
    It's possible that, if your internal HD is the one that shipped with your MBP in 2010, it may be failing. If it keeps needing repairs, that is probably a sign that it is approaching the end of its useful life.
    Have you run Disk Utility's Repair tool on the external drive as well?
    I mentioned the hub because some people have reported here that attaching their USB 3 drives through a USB 2 hub solved some disconnection problems. A good-quality powered USB 2 hub won't cost much.
    My most recent brush with random disconnections involved a nice new OWC drive enclosure. I used the cable that came with the drive, but the drive kept disconnecting. Using a different cable solved the problem. You wouldn't expect that what appeared to be a high quality cable would be a problem straight out of the box, but it was.

  • Boot Seagate Expansion Desktop Drive (2Tb) on HP ProBook 6570b

    Hello All!
    I currently bought a Seagate Expansion Desktop Drive (2Tb) and tried to make it a bootable drive so if I go to work and back to use it (Windows to go). On my desktop computer the drive works perfectly, boots and everything is fine, but on my laptop (HP Probook 6570b) it is not recognized as a boot device! I installed the drive from the laptop and it recognizes the drive in windows but not at boot time….
    I downloaded the latest bios and installed it. (2014.08 F.50) and tried again. (Before that the laptop did not start at all if the drive was pluged in on boot!!!)
    I set the boot to legacy, then UEFI and Native to but nothing. Set the priority to boot from usb drive first then flashdisk and everything that is not internal… and then Internal HDD and then network and dvd etc..
    When the drive options come up with Escape/F10 there are no usb drives (if the drive is pluged in only). Tried all usb ports on the Laptop nothing. If I boot without anything pressed the Internal HDD boots normally. I plug in an usb pendrive with a bootable content on it, that boots fine, but I can’t seem to get the drive working. I checked with Seagate and they don’t have newer firmware for the drive it is up to date. So the problem would be in the Bios or the settings.
    Anyone faced something similar maybe? Any help would be appreciated.
    I think it will be a Bios problem... if anyone could point me to the right direction about makeing this an issue to update the ProBook 6570b bios to get it to work would be the biggest help i think
    I got 10 day to bring the drive back, to the reseller to get another if this is not working,  but this is not the drives fault. If anyone has a working USB HDD with Probook and windows to go and could tell me the device name that would be a great help to.
    Thanks

  • Seagate 300gig sata hard drive not recognized

    I'm trying to install a seagate 300gb sata hard drive in my dual 2.0 g5.
    I can plug in the two cables and the drive fits in fine, it even spins, however the computer does not recognize that the drive is there.
    I've checked the sata in the system profile and tried disk utility but it is simply not there. Could this be a wiring problem or a bad drive? How do I check this?

    My guess is that it is a Seagate 7200.9 with SSC on. If that is the case you will need a PC and this tool:

  • Mac pro 2.66, 2 new seagate drives raid 0, newbie, not sure if a problem...

    Hi,
    I'm a relative newbie--just got a mac pro 2.66 and added two additional seagate sata 7200.10 500 gig drives that I striped together using disk utility and set at 0. My intention? to do video and animation editing and use the additional satas to read/write my data on, as I create it (I'm planning on doing routine backups to DVD's)
    My potential problem: Just to test it, I put a couple of word docs that I'm updating/writing on it. If I don't type for a while (say 15 minutes), when I do type and save, it takes a a while (maybe 30 seconds and yes, get a rolling ball) to save. After that, saving is instant. Is there a sleep issue with this? There are no systems on the striped satas. I'm using 10.47, btw.
    Anybody know why? are my disks just bad? aside from the initial save problems, they're fine.
    mac pro 2.66   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I would hope it is not a firmware issue with Seagate. There have been some, and make sure your drives are set to NEVER spin-down in Energy control panel (system preferences).
    That is 1TB almost of storage - to backup - and as one huge volume. It is possible to first partition the drives, then stripe like to like partitions into RAID also (if you wanted to be able to erase a volume, or keep some files separate, not everyone does).
    It can also help to zero a drive first, or make sure that the drive is suitable for RAID (seems most but not all are). There have been reports here, or on Barefeats, as well as on http://www.xlr8yourmac.com about drive issues. OWC is now updating the firmware on some Seagate model drives.

    Your problem is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
    That can happen for two reasons:
    (1) You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    (2) You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination. In Activity Monitor, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table once or twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. Repeat with the Virtual Mem column. If one process (not including "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more memory over time without ever releasing it.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
