3F0 Error with Good Hard Drive

OK I just got a No Boot Device Found(3F0) With a hard drive I know works. I was working on a friends computers and switched the hard drives to see if that was their issue which it was. My hard drive booted up fine in their computer. When I put it back in my computer i got a the error from above, and when I put it back in the other computer it still works fine. I did a system restore to yesterday incase there were drivers that were messing things up but the error still exists, any ideas?

Ok, it is an HDX16t with Windows 7 64-bit OS. I bought it in June 2009, but got it refurbished due to it being dropped in November of 2009. It hasn't been dropped or anything since then. other specs 2.13 GHz processor, 4GB of RAM, 130M GeForce Graphics.
Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Time Machine errors with external hard drive

    This is my first post,
    I've had my MBP for a little over 8 months and came up with an error when i went to go use bootcamp, saying that it could not partition my windows partition cause there is not enough space ( I have like at least 40+ gigs left after i partition it) and it tells me to backup and re-install. So what I wanted to do is do a time machine restore.
    I take my 750GB Western Digital External Drive via Firewire and plug it in, time machine recognizes it and wants to format it as "Mac OS X Extended (Case-Sensitive, Journaled). So I do that and it all goes well.
    After that's all done is basically when all my problems come. My external likes to lock up now and doesn't want to transfer all my files. I will load up the time machine restore and it sometimes will recognize my external and sometimes wont show up. My external will occasionally lock up during the time machine restore process. And all the time when it does actually complete and I restart the computer, it will have most of my things but all my pictures and stuff are missing off it and i go to look in my external and its still all in there but I'm left wondering why it didn't work.
    As another resort i did a fresh re-install of mac os x and tried the migration assistant. It went going to restore it but then comes up with an error saying that it cant transfer the data and tells me to plug in my external when i have it already plugged in.
    Since that didn't work I did another re-install of mac and decided to just start fresh, I still had all my music and other things that I had on my back up and tried putting them on my mac's hard drive and towards the middle and stuff it will come up with an error saying that it could not transfer files anymore and what not.
    So I'm left scratching my head in wonder, because my external will show up on my desktop and I'm able to search files through there ok.
    Could the possible problem be is that time machine partitioned it as journaled and case-sensative while my mac is partitioned as just journaled? Would that cause a conflict of having it locking up and giving me errors?
    This is really the first time I've ever really been able to seriously play around with a mac and am totally lost and don't know what I can be doing wrong.
    The external I have I just got last year not too long ago and it was working great before this.
    I've been trying for the past 3 days straight trying to figure out this problem and have had no luck.
    Please any help would really be appreciated greatly.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Ok I tried what you said and I failed every time.
    But here is an interesting thing that I just figured out. What I tried was making a folder on the desktop and I went into the time machine backup that I had I went and manually copied the applications, library, system, users, and developer folder thinking that it may work. Well it did for me with all the folders but not the Library folder. I think that it may be the culprit behind it cause it may be corrupt and thats why my stuff will keep locking up.
    I will start copying all the other folders and they work just fine but then i would start to copy the Library folder and it would come up saying preparing to copy to "so and so" folder. well a bit into that it will stop and my external will spin down and stop working, all the other things being copied will stop in their tracks. But when I cancel it and wait a few for it to finally cancel, all my other folders will continue to copy to my desktop to the specified folder. I tried copying the Library folder over and over but same thing happened. It locked my system and my external up.
    I thought all along that I had a bad external drive when i knew it worked well when I first got it.
    So could that be a possibility that there's something in that folder that would completely halt everything when I'm copying? Because I've really never done a fresh reinstall of mac os x when I bought the machine. This backup is the factory install.
    I'm just sitting here right now making sure that these other folders that are copying get done so I know that I can single out the Library folder. And so far so good with all the copying via firewire.

  • TS1550 Time Machine backup error with LaCie hard drive

    When trying to backup in Time Machine to a new LaCie external hard drive, I get "Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “LaCie". The backup disk image “/Volumes/LaCie/(owner's name’s) MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1)."  Can anyone tell me what I need to do to fix this?  Do I need to erase and re-partition the LaCie hard drive?  Thanks.

  • Spinning Wheel crashes at start up, Not an error with actual hard drive.

    I recently bought a second hand macbook pro 2009. The guy told me it worked fine but you couldn't update the Operating System. I was okay with this because we agreed it must be a hard drive issue and i wanted to replace it with a 1tb SSHD anyway. I tried to enter disk utility to wipe the original 160gb hard drive, but like the guy said, the spinning wheel would just crash. So i installed my new 1000tb SSHD and the exact same thing happen, i insert a Mavericks USB, hold Option, click on the bootable USB and the spinning wheel starts and then stops.
    The only way i was able to wipe the 160gb using disk utility was doing it through my iMac and having the Macbook in Target mode.
    I know it's not a hard drive issue, as i bought three of these SSHD's and the other two worked fine. Would it be the hard drive cable or something else?
    Thanks.

    Any advice?

  • Issues with External Hard Drives

    I hope this is the right forum for this one - please give me a steer if not! I've also posted it in 'Dock and Finder', but this forum seems equally appropriate, if not more so.
    I'm getting repeated issues with External Hard Drives, including ones that I have been using successfully for months/years, suddenly failing to mount and then becoming 'unknown device' through the firewire branch of 'About This Mac'.
    I've just bought a new hard drive on the grounds that the others had somehow failed, and the same problems are emerging. I decided to Repair Permissions on my iMac's internal drive, and am copying the results below, from repair runs conducted yesterday and today:

    Many problems with the 10.5.7 update have been fixed by a Restart.
    If that doesn't help, something may have gone wrong with the update. Download and install the "combo" update, from: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_7_ComboUpdate
    If that doesn't help, try running the Apple Hardware Test, on the disc that came with your computer.
    1. Disconnect all external devices (including the Ethernet cable) except the keyboard and mouse.
    2. Insert the "Additional Software & Apple Hardware Test" disc that came with your computer.
    3. Restart while holding down the "C" key. When the list of available startup volumes appears, click Apple Hardware Test and the right arrow.
    4. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen comes up (after a moment), follow the on screen instructions.
    5. If it detects a problem, an error code will be displayed. Make a note of it.

  • External Hard Drive Error -- alias "Home Hard Drive" can't be opened be

    I've got an iMac and an external hard drive I've been using for about three years. Recently, every time I try to open the external hard drive I get the following error, "The alias “Home Hard Drive” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found." The three options it gives me are, Delete Alias, Fix Alias or just ok. I've got my iTunes library on the EHD so I'm very skeptical about pressing fix alias b/c obviously I don't want to lose any of my data. Has anyone experienced this or have a solution?
    Thanks!

    We have the same exact problem on multiple machines and with multiple hard drives since upgrading to OS 10.6. It is a known issue at Apple. The suggestion to me from Apple support staff was to use a third party application called "Path Finder", which allows you to correct the problem by turning off an "alias bit" after selecting "show info" on the hard drive.
    The problem with this solution is 1) it costs $40 which I think is unfair... apple should provide a free solution, and 2) the problems can reoccur spontaneously, requiring periodic resetting of the alias bit.
    I'm hoping Apple can solve this problem... but I am still out the $40.

  • Operating system not found when deploying to machines with two hard drives using MDT 2013.

    Computers with two hard drives will not boot after the install OS step in the task sequence.  I get the "An operating system wasn't found.  Try removing drives that don't contain an operating system" error.  I am able to get the
    machine to boot by swapping the hard drives' boot order, but the  task sequence won't complete after this.  The deployment works fine on machines with one hard drive, and I'm not getting any errors from the task sequence.  I'm deploying windows7
    enterprise x64 using MDT2013.  This is a new custom image and task sequence generated using MDT2013.  I can't remove the second hard drive because there are scripts that run on the second hard drive during deployment and also because I don't desire
    to remove and re-install 250 hard drives.  I've not experienced this problem with earlier versions of MDT.

    The bdd.log file you sent does not show two internal drives, it shows only one.

  • [SOLVED] Dual boot windows 7 and arch Linux with seperate hard drives

    Ok so I'm stuck trying to get my computer to dual boot windows 7 and arch. They are installed on different hard drives and I have grub 2 as the boot loader. I can't find any tutorials on how to do it with seperate hard drives I know how to do it if they are on the same hard drive. Also I want windows on the "first" hard drive how do I check to see which one it considers the first?

    Not from the BIOS. He would need to physically open up the computer and switch the cables between them (or add another drive).
    There's no actual performance increase in changing this order. Performance increase is when you have the partitions as close to the beginning of a HDD as possible, where the platters spin faster (basic mechanics, not to be confused with CD/DVD, which are being written from the inside-out to prevent errors after extended usage), and it especially doesn't apply to SSDs whatsoever.
    You may be right about that. I remember I had to do this a while back but I probably switched the cables. It also messed up the drive mapping in Windows 98 if I remember correctly.

  • W520 Replace DVD with another Hard Drive and IEEE 1394 spec for music recording

    To increase the performance, I am taking the 160 GB SSD instead of the mechanical drive. Obviouslt, I need more space than this. I don't care about the DVD rom. It can't play blu ray anyway. Is it possible to replace the dvd drive with a hard drive? Where can I get a replaceable drive for this? What do I do with the DVD? Can I sell it back?
    I need to do music recording with this. I was wondering about the IEEE 1394 spec; the latency etc. If I remember correctly the W510 IEEE1394 was very good, probably was manufactured by Texas Instruments. I could not find anything about it anywhere. Not even here: http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/tabook.pdf
    Also, a bit worried about the sound card. How good is it? Did anyone use this laptop for music recording?

    hey udvranto,
    with regard to this, i would suggest contacting tech support via the number listed in the link below to check if it is possible to replace the dvd with your harddrive.
    http://www.lenovo.com/contact/us/en/
    on the part of the soundcard, I believe it is good for music recording. Though this really depends on the software that you're going to use to record.

  • DV6Z laptop with AMD A83530MX and 640GB 7200rpm HDD operating with orange hard drive light active

    My laptop seems to be operating ok but the hard drive light recently turned to orange and when operating it blinks orange instead of the white/blinking white. I have tried disabling HP DriveGuard and also re-enabling it, restarting, defragmenting, disk check with windows (with error fix enabled), and even the HP hard drive test in the BIOS. Nothing will change the orange light. Is there something wrong with my hard drive? What can I do to get the light to display correctly?
    Thanks!

    There may be one or more large folders in your /Volumes folder that shouldn't be there and are using up your disk space.
    /Volumes is an 'invisible" folder at the root level of your internal drive which is supposed to contain only the "mount points" for your attached disk volumes, but sometimes an actual folder can mistakenly get created there, often as a result of a failed copy operation such as you experienced with SuperDuper. Such a "ghost" folder will have a name similar to a real external drive, and can contain data that was meant for the real external drive but never got there. When the real external volume then re-mounts, it can no longer use its own name for the mount point in /Volumes because that name is already "taken", and so an extra number gets appended to the mount point. This may have happened twice in your situation, since the actual drive is now mounting as "Untitled 2".
    /Volumes is a hidden folder, but it's easy to peek into it. First you should *eject and then physically disconnect all external drives*. Then:
    Finder>Go menu> Go to Folder
    enter /Volumes and click Go
    You should see an alias to the startup volume. Don't touch this, or any other aliases. Do you also see a large folder named "Untitled, and perhaps another folder named "Untitled 1," which are not aliases? If so, delete them, and restart.

  • I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space, and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run t media from an external hard drive? If so, how do I transfer my files?

    I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space (32 GB), and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run itunes from an external hard drive? I have tried to follow some of the directions on this site, but am having no success. Thanks.

    iTunes will run fine with the media on an external drive.
    However, I suggest that a tablet computer with a tiny hard drive is not ideal as the primary computer for managing an iTunes library, even a small one. If you have another machine, perhaps a big, boxy, inexpensive old desktop with a decent amount of storage, that might be a better choice.

    Buy another hard drive.  They're cheap these days.
    In fact, buy a couple of 'em.  I recommend a minimum of five internal hard drives.

  • MacBook Pro won't boot with new hard drive, but a different MacBook Pro will

    So here are the details. My friend and I both have 13-inch Mid 2010 MacBook Pro's. Same processor and specs since they were purchased at the same time, but originally had 250 GB hard drives. His hard drive failed and needed a new one. Put a 500 GB Seagate Momentus 5400.6 in his computer, and tried using a flash drive with "Install OS X Mavericks" on it to install Mavericks on his new hard drive. No matter what, it wouldn't install. I finally was able to install OS X 10.9.4 on it by connecting the new hard drive to my computer with a USB hard drive enclosure. I put the hard drive back inside his computer and it wouldn't boot (stuck on the gray screen with apple logo and a spinning wheel). I then attached to the hard drive to his computer externally with the USB enclosure, and then it booted and worked perfectly.
    So, it seemed like the problem was with something inside his computer, but then I switched our drives, and that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I put my original hard drive into his computer, and his new hard drive into my computer, and they both booted and worked perfectly, so I have no idea why his computer will not boot with the new hard drive internally.
    To summarize, his computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally (won't work if it's internal), and 2) my hard drive internally
    but my computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally AND internally, and 2) my hard drive internally.
    Both hard drives have OS X 10.9.4 installed
    If anyone has any idea what's causing this and how to make his computer work with the new hard drive internally that would be greatly appreciated.

    So after switching the internal SATA cables from each computer, now we have
    His computer, with my SATA cable:
    1) Worked with every hard drive!
    My computer, with his SATA cable:
    1) Works with 1 TB Toshiba hard drive
    2) Works with 500 GB Seagate hard drive
    3) Works with my original hard drive
    4) Flashing folder with question mark with his old hard drive
    So it turns out you were right! Definitely had something to do with the SATA cables. But it's still strange that mine was able to boot with all the hard drives except the one that was originally in his. So it seems like it was some combination of his SATA cable and something else, since when his SATA cable was in his computer only 1 hard drive (my original) worked, and when it was in my computer, 3 hard drives worked. But at least its working, and I'm just gonna keep our SATA cables switched since that seems to work out fine
