[BUG?] "Turn off Hard Disk after - NEVER " Does not work ?

Hi,
I was using last 2 builds of Windows 10 Tech preview x64, and found this weird behaviour. I've updated to this new 9926 build, clean installation, and it happened again:
I have Windows installed on my SSD, and I have several other Hard Disks (internal ones) connected. Whenever I try to search files inside any of those HDDs, they have to turn themselves on, which causes a 2-3 sec lag, and then allow me to continue. When I'm
done working inside them, and some minutes pass, they turn themselves back off again.
I do know theres an power management option called "Turn Hard Disk off after..." and I have chosen it to be at NEVER. But it's not working.
Has anyone had same problem? Is it a known bug or something? Any way to fix this?
Thank you for your time, and forgive my level of english.

Chris,
These steps from a recent post by AndyO should help:

+"Your problem may be that the new hard drive in your mini is not yet prepared correctly for the MacOS installer to recognise it.+
+"Once you are booted to the installer disk, instead of attempting an install, open Disk Utility in the Utilities menu. If the drive doesn't show up on the left, it is not correctly installed, and you will need to open the system up again and check that it is connected correctly. If it shows up in Disk Utility, you need to partition and format it correctly. To do that, click on the drive in Disk Utility to select it, then click the Partition tab. Under 'Volume Scheme, select a single volume, then click the Options button to bring up the partitioning choices. For a G4 mini, you want to select Apple Partition Map. Click OK to confirm and it will partition the drive and should also format it as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Once that is done, you should then be able to run the MacOS installer which will then recognise the drive and allow the install.+
+"For reference, a G4 (PPC) Mac, (including the original minis) require Apple Partition Map partitioning, and Mac OS Extended (Journaled) formatting for a MacOS installer to recognise them.+

  • The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing. (Hyper-v / Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview)

    I am attempting to create new virtual machines in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview and I am continually getting the error "The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing.". I am not trying
    to setup a shared VM or VHD, just a basic VHD.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

    This issue is listed in the release notes and currently there is no fix on our side. Have to wait for the next build.

  • The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual disk sharing

    Hi everyone,
    I deployed 2 hyper v vitual machines a while ago, and i did that because I needed to test my current game Project, which is an
    online game. However, i've had some problems with my Windows installation then I had to reset the pc by making it a refresh
    install. I still have the hyper v virtual disks, but i cannot attach it to a new hyper-v virtual machine. it pops up this message:
    "the storage
    where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual disk sharing". I dont know anything about virtual machines, so I
    didnt know I had to make the disk sharable. How can I force to attach the hard disk to a new hyper-v? I dont want to go t
    hrough the whole proccess of installing the operating system all over again and updating it....
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    Romulo Romero

    Hi MrDebugging,
    >>
    When I Try to add a SCSI Controller, and then I click browse to add a UNC I get this:
    C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks\ClienMachine.vhdx
    but I tried placing in different location, and the same problem occurs!
    By the way, Im not on a server , I am a domestic user and I am running it on my
    Windows 8.1
    According to the error message , it seems that it is not a permission issue .
    The VM is Gen 1 or Gen2 ?
    Generally the error message occurs when you enable "shared vhdx" on standalone/client hyper-v host :
    Please try to attach the VHDx file to IDE controller if it is a Gen 1 virtual machine (because only the SCSI controller has the option "virtual hard disk sharing" and Gen 1 VM only can boot from IDE )
    All in all , please do not use this feature without CSV or Scale-Out File Server with SMB 3.0 on file-based storage .
    If it is not the case , please detail steps what you did .

  • SM36/37: Specification "After Job" does not work for Daily "periodcity"

    I reviewed http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/20/2d513897110872e10000009b38f889/content.htm, which states what I am trying to do should work, but it does not.
    Here's the deal:
    1.  I have two jobs: "A" and "B".
    2.  "A" runs Daily.
    3.  I set-up job "B" to run "After job" "A" in my SM36 definition.
    Job "B" will run the next day, but never runs again after that even though job "A" continues to run "Daily" as it should.
    Further info:
    1.  We have "Event-triggered" jobs that run fine, but the "After Job" designation doesn't seem to work ongoingly.
    2.  I can review both jobs "A" and "B" for any "Predecessor" or "Successor" jobs, and, the first jobs to run after the initial set-up DO reference each other (in other words, let's say I schedule job "B" to run "After job" "A" on Tuesday.  After Tuesday's run, Job "A" sees job "B" as it's "Successor" job and job "B" sees job "A" as it's "Predecessor" job), but the definition doesn't last into the next day ONLY FOR JOB "B" (as I mentioned, job "A" always runs fine).
    3.  I can't set the "periodcity" for job "B" because, once I flag it to run "After Job" "A", the "period" options disappear.
    4.  One final tidbit: the variant for job "B" has a "key date" specified so the date is dynamic for each day the job runs.  I can set up job "B" to run "Daily" with this variant and it runs fine, but I wanted it to run AFTER job "A" so it never runs if job "A" doesn't run.  (At this point, it's becoming a matter of principal!)
    Here's my question:
    Why won't job "B" continue to run "Daily" after job "A" (a "Daily" job) runs?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lara

  • Spacebar disassembled, reassembled after it does not work

    I was cleaning the keyboard of my MacBook Pro (early 2011) when I bump the spacebar, look for in the network how do, ok unmount, I clean everything and remount. I don't have a good impression the space bar does not work anymore, I've broken? and yet I have not done anything so aggressive, then I try to reboot the machine just load the finder beginning to feel the "bong" as if a key is pressed,open the Keyboard Viewer and discover that it is the space bar which is like if it remains pressed, to mute the sound are forced to unmount button and once reassembled no longer works again, I do not understand what it may be, I have noticed, however, that once removed the key sound ends when I move the leverof iron, the most above. how to proceed? thank you very much =)

    You have to take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.

  • How to turn off hard disk identification in LR 3.3?

    Hi!
    I have a problem with LR 3.3 on my Windows XP. I have a lot of harddisk (1TB, 2TB SATA2, made by Samsung) in my XP system with my RAW photos, all encrypted by Truecrypt. When I need to import my existings photos from that secured harddisk (Truecrypt is the best tool i have tested), LR 3.3 is blocking option Move and Add in Import dialog.
    I must duplicate my photos by Copy options only - like from memory card.
    LR 3.3 is thinking, that my encrypted harddisks are my memory cards, and is disable Add and Move option.
    How to turn that bad identyfication off?
    And in the end, every time when I want to import photos - LR 3.3 is searching all my TB harddisks (more then 30 minutes) to create and show my thumbs in folders - and I can not stop this searching. How to turn it off too?
    Regards

    Remisteness,
    There are a few things to mention regarding your problem:
    1) Scanning all of the Drive(s) after Starting Import
    Right after the import dialog opens, try to click onto an internal drive as soon as possible and uncheck "Include Subfolders". This should prevent the scanning of the drive(s).
    2) What is presented to the O/S for an Encrypted Device
    Obviously, your encryption software presents the "virtual" drives as removable devices to the operating system, which leads LR to treat them as "Cards".
    I have a similar software in use to access encrypted data in "Container Files" (SafeGuard PrivateDisk). In SafeGuard PrivateDisk, I can configure how a "virtual" drive is presented to the Operating System, either as a removable device or as a simulated harddisk. If I choose "Simulate Harddisk", the "virtual" drive is represented like a harddisk in my WinXP and LR does not show it as a removable device, hence without the restriction imposed on "Cards" during import.
    3) Restrictions imposed by LR while Importing from "Cards"
    LR prevents users from moving photos when directly accessing a memory card, because if a file would get corrupted during import no valid copy of the image would exist anywhere anymore. Also, adding photos residing on a real memory card does not make sense either, as too many users would be looking for their original images after disconnecting the (and possibly reformatting) the memory card.
    There has been a lengthy discussion in this forum lately on whether it makes sense or not that LR tries to protect users from their own wrong doing. I guess one can see it either way, and the limitations chosen by Adobe kind of protect Adobe from too many questions/accusations.
    4) Workaround for LR 3.3
    To be able to add or move from a removable device in LR 3.3, you can do the following:
    Create yourself one or two Import Presets, with Add or Move as the action to be performed. You have to create these presets while doing a test-import from a interal or external HDD, and save them from there.
    When accessing your removable device, access the drive by clicking onto the drive letter in the drive list below "Files", and not by clicking onto the removable device under "Devices"
    Choose one of the Import Presets built in step 1
    This will use Move or Add as the action to be performed (note that no action at all will be highlighted), even though you're importing from a "Card".
    As this behaviour is a hidden/undocumented feature (or even bug?), we do not know whether this possibility will still be existing in future releases of LR, but for right now it seems to be a workaround.

  • Safe to turn off hard disk sleep?

    i have a powermac g4 with mirror drive doors. i've been having occasional trouble waking from sleep. i turned off sleep mode for the computer, and unchecked "put the hard disk to sleep when possible". is this safe for my computer, or will it harm the hard disk?

    If I had a nickel for every "sleep" related question I wouldn't have to work for a living.
    Your hard drives are, as David says, fully capable of running all the time. Some swear that it is better for the drives. My belief is that this comes from the experience of older hard drives which were best left on all the time. Newer drives are designed to power down as required by the EnergyStar mandates. So they can run or sleep and it really shouldn't matter.
    What does matter is the not waking from sleep. If by that you mean you had to use the power button to shut down completely and then restart your computer acutally crashed. If/when this happens you should do one of the following upon or before attempting to restart
    1) Boot single user and run fsck
    2) Boot from the install disk and run Disk Utility from the cd/dvd
    3) Hold down the shift key for a Safe Boot which also runs fsck before booting fully
    The chances are that the directory was ok when the computer entered sleep and the journal of the hard drived was up to date. But if not then repeated hard reboots will accumulate directory errors which will mess things up.

  • TS1347 Since the most recent download from Apple my calendar will not accept a new entry. I turned the phone off, back on, and it would then accept a new entry. Then would stop again. Attempted the on-off fix and now that does not work.

    Since update of iOS7.0.2 my calendar has been problematic by not accepting new data (appointments) intermitingly. The first time I turned off the phone and restarted which then accepted the new data for an event. Worked fine a few days the would not again accept new data. The on/off fix does not now work. Went online with Apple support, went through an online dianogistic which after the calendar function worked. Today it again will not take new data. One good thing is once the data is visible in Calendar it stays.

    5.- The imac turned off again and disconected form the wall and conected to another electrical contact at the wall, adn it did not turned on.  i wait for some minutes and turned on again, but after about five minutes it turned off again.
