Terastation III Max hard drive size

I recently read a topic which stated that 3TB drives are able to be installed. User CStaples (tagged below) commented that he was able to install 4 4TB drives. Can you please confirm this for me? Thanks

Macbook pro late 2008 max hard drive size

I have a MacBook Pro Late 2008. I think the max RAM is 8GB but what is the max hard drive size. It is running Yosemite. It currently has a 1TB drive.

I solved the heat-issue in Windows Vist32 (tested and worked!)
This should also work in XP, XP64 and VISTA 64 although not tested.
Goto the Nvidia website and download the latest notebook drivers (http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook_drivers.html).
Uninstall your old notebook drivers through device-manager and restart.
Now install the Nvidia notebook drivers you just downloaded and restart.
*NOW THE IMPORTANT PART!!!*
After numerous hours of testing i found out that installing new Nvdia display drivers overwrite some Nvidia chipset drivers. This causes your fans not spinning at all under heavy GPU load.
*THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE BECAUSE TEMPERATURES CAN EASILY PASS 100 degrees celsius.*
Now for the fix in four easy steps!
1. Under Windows insert your MacOS original install-disc (the one with the bootcamp drivers)
2. Choose to explore the Bootcamp folder.
3. Now open the drivers folder and browse to the Nvidia folder.
4. Now install the package called nvidiachipset. These come in all flavors (XP, XP64, VISTA, VISTA64) choose the correct version for your OS.
After installation a reboot is not even necessary. Start your favorite game and notice the extreme humming of your speeding fans! Should sound like music!
*So remember. Every time you update your graphics drivers A REINSTALL OF THE CHIPSET DRIVERS FOR YOUR UNIBODY MBP MUST BE DONE!! If you don't the fans won't come up under heavy load which will result in a BUSTED GPU!!!*

Max hard drive size in G5

Hello,
Like the G4's before it(not including MDD), do the G5 Quads have a limit on hard drive size? I was wondering what the max size for a hard drive is for the G5 Quad, or can one go up to 4 terabytes?

Remember, I was mostly on a G4 MDD and have some experience with a G5. Now that I have a G5 Quad, I am learning stuff each day.
Research, Read, and Educate yourself.
If anything, I would have hoped that that was understood from my posts.
Remember, I only have a Sawtooth, but I know about all PPC Macs........

Someone with your post count should at least be aware of "Search Discussions" features.
They should also be aware of the forum rules and etiquette.
But, this next question you can help me with. I am looking for a replacement graphics card which will provide more performance than the stock PCIe Nvidia 6600. Can you provide help for me with that?

Max Hard Drive Size....?

recently picked up an emac, after holding out for a 1.42ghz model
anyway, already added a DVD burner and about to add some RAM (currently has 768mb)
the current hard drive is only 80gb - plus its having some issues... after some slow down in using anything on the mac i poked around and found the disk utility is reporting the S.M.A.R.T status as bad...
so i was wanting to replace it due to wanting more storage space, and this has just made me need to do it sooner rather than later.
my main question:
is there a maximum hard drive size the emac will take?
if the mac will take a 750gb drive, and if i can find an IDE drive that big anywhere i would, just i know they are kind of hard to come by... failing that a 500gb IDE drive is easy come by...
will they work?
cheers

is there a maximum hard drive size the emac will take?
No.
will (those considerations) work?
Yes, any IDE/ATA will work in the eMac.

Do not get a SATA (Serial ATA) drive as they are not suitable for your eMac.

What is the max hard drive size in an early 2008 MacBook?

I've got an early 2008 black macbook. I want to upgrade from a 250gb hard drive to either a 750gb 7200rpm drive or a 1tb 5200rpm drive. Will either of these work in there? I don't know if there is a maximum hard drive size/rpm that I can put in there. Thank you for your help!

I know these posts were a while ago, but I wanted to check in on your 2008 Macbook. I have the same model and want to do the hard drive update. Is your machine still up and running, or have you moved on?
Thank you!

Max Hard Drive size for Ultra 10s

Hi,
I'm kinda new to sun and I have a ultra 10s with a 9 Gig factory installed HD.
I was wondering what the maximum sized IDE hard drive that can be installed. I would like to mirror the system as well. I've seen another post about this but the max size was a 27 Gig drive and didn't explain how to mirror. I have Solaris 8 1/01 meda kit does that include the required software to mirror the drives. I think it's called Raid Manager?
Many thanks

I'm not sure what the max drive size supported on an Ultra-10, but most
new Sun products are shipping with 40 GByte EIDE drives and use the
same chipset. Caveat emptor: Solaris <7 may or may not support EIDE
larger than 8GBytes, but since you are on Solaris 8 you should be ok.
For SCSI drives (requires a PCI SCSI HBA for the Ultra-10) the size can
be quite large. The most common large size SCSI drives today is 180
GBytes, but SCSI is designed to scale much larger.
You don't want RAIDManager for mirroring. Look for Solstice DiskSuite (SDS)
in your media distribution. If I'm not mistaken, it is cleverly hidden in
the "EA" directory on CD 2of2 in the media kit. Also, look for docs on
mirroring root using SDS on http://docs.sun.com

Max. hard drive size for Pavilion a800n

Hi,
One last question, I'm replacing the hard drive (160G) in my old Pavilion a800n and am wondering what the max size would be (would like at least 500G). Guess I could partition if needed...
Win. XP (32 bit), Phoenix BIOS, LTD 3.11, 9/2/2004.
Thanks!
This question was solved.

Hi,
Sorry, based on the following specs, I would not upgrade the HDD. If you need more space for data/files, buy an external HDD.

Max Hard drive size for Powerbook 1.5

I need to increase the internal hard drive on my '15 Powerbook 1.5Ghz. What is the max size that the Powerbook can handle? I would like to get one that's at least 160g.

The maximum drive size that your PB can handle is far larger than any currently available drive. The largest drive available (or likely to become available) is this 320GB Western Digital drive:

It's also available from other vendors, of course; to find other vendors selling it, just Google its Western Digital model number.

X30 max hard drive size + system recovery for XP

Hi all! My X30 is wacked out - virus. My fault, no excuses. Anyway I'm taking the opportunity to upgrade the hard drive and start fresh with this little beauty.
1) what is the largest HDD (in GB) I can install? I just can't find a line anywhere in any of the spec sheets that says "Max HDD size: "
2) is there a certain type I need? i.e. will any 2.5" form factor drive fit? Even better, will THIS drive work if I plonk her in and use the recovery disk?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152111
3) Am I correct in thinking that if I put in a new HDD and set the BIOS to boot from the CD (in the UltraBay) then put the Recovery CD disk 1 in the drive, it will run me through a fresh factory shipped install with XP?? I will use the Recovery disk for X30 2672 and 2673 series with XP Pro, or part number 01R6196. If that's the case I'm doing it, that's all there is to it!
4) Incidentally, am I correct in thinking that I can only have 512MB in this beauty, and the RAM for it costs a fortune?
Thanks, all!

Max Hard Drive Size for Airport Extreme 4th Generation (A1354)?

I've got a 4th gen Airport Extreme (A1354) (MC340LL/A).
Currently I'm using a 2TB Western Digital USB2 hard drive connected externally.
I'd like to add a larger capacity hard drive so that I can back up more computers. What's the maximum HD size and configuration I can add to this Airport?
Thanks!
Seth

For now, the nearest available information may not be fully suggestive of
the possible largest or unofficially supported external HDD it may use...
Since a similar-spec Time Capsule has the option for either a 2TB or 3TB
internal HDD as part of that configuration, the safe bet suggests 3TB.
There may be an issue with larger drives and multiple computers using
one large drive, since I'd seen some mention of a few user problems when
two or more Macs were sharing Time Machine storage on one larger HDD.
And someone may know of the information about a software utility that may
be able to help keep track of the files or organize them, in such a situation.
In passing, some weeks ago, I'd read about such a utility to help alleviate an
issue that may result from two or more Macs with Time Machine files on the
same backup hard disk drive. But did not keep the link nor retain those details.
If you did get a larger external hard disk drive of sufficient spin rate RPM
and cache size, then it may be a simple matter to format it with partitions
so extra space may be in reserve or any capacity unable to work with
the total configuration could be used for general storage, apart from TM.
Hopefully there is a good drive available for that application.
I'd inquire of OWC as they have some examples of hardware.
Good luck & happy computing!

Max Hard drive total or per drive?

I have a ThinkPad Edge E545 with a 1TB HDD. The max hard drive size is 1TB according to the specs. I was thinking of upgrading to a SSD. If I do that, I would like to remove the DVD drive and put my current 1TB HDD in a caddy there. Is that possible? Is the 1TB max per drive or total?

Remember, I was mostly on a G4 MDD and have some experience with a G5. Now that I have a G5 Quad, I am learning stuff each day.

DV6745us hard drive size max

Does any know the largest internal hard drive size that dv6745us Pavillion has support for in the BIOS? I upgraded from a 250gb to a 320gb but want to go to a 500gb or 640gb. I called HP but they can't tell me what it is. Go figure.

Hi:
No one is going to quote you anything more than what the service manual states, unless they have personally took a gamble and succesfully installed a drive larger than the specs indicated (which is 250 GB).
You have successfully already exceeded that spec.
In theory, a 750 GB HDD should work just fine in your notebook and a 1 TB drive should too if the thickness is the same as a 750 GB or less. Some 1 TB drives are thicker than lesser sized drives and therefore won't fit in the drive bay.
Roll the dice, or wait indefintely for someone to reply that can say for sure whether a larger drive than 320 GB will work or not.
I am pretty confident a larger drive will.

MAX macbook hard drive size??

I have a macbook 13 inch
2 ghz intel core 2
4 GB ram, 10.5.6.
What is the max Hard drive I can put in here? I see a sale for a 1 TB.
I currently have a 300 GB and its filling up.
Thanks

so the 1 TB available at my local electronics place will not work?
Is it a 2.5" SATA notebook drive?
It's unlikely that a 2.5" drive with the required 9.5 mm thickness (to fit in a MacBook) would have a 1 TB capacity. 500 GB seems to be the limit at this time.
It might be possible to use more platters, but that would increase the thickness. Such a drive might be useful for rack servers or for use in external applications (like in a USB enclosure).
The expected timeline seems to be 750 GB this summer and 1 TB by 2010.

There's apparently a 1 TB solid-state drive in the works, but I would expect your wallet would burst into flames paying for it. It would fit in a MacBook, but I would expect the price range to be in the thousands of dollars.
