C210M2 Drive failed and RMA replacement is not identical? Anyone seen this?

We have a C210M1 with a 9261-8i raid5 array with 8 FujitsuInc drives.
1 Fujitsu MBE2147RC 147GB drive failed. My colleague believes the RMA drive sent from Cisco being a ToshibaInc is slightly smaller than the other FujitsuInc's and won't regenerate in the existing raid5 array on c210m1 or that they array would need to be reformatted if we put this ToshibaInc drive in. Said he saw this in another C210M1 last year.
Anyone else experience this? Technote or bugid or documented by UCS team?

Followup…the RMA drive was identical. No issues. From the customer;
Here is what was completed yesterday and our current state:
Toshiba drive was inserted into a spare bay, size was checked and confirmed to be the same as the Fujitsu drives.
Confirmed all drives were online and Raid was healthy
Drive 6 was removed and Toshiba drive installed
Confirmed Raid was rebuilding, followed up and confirmed the rebuild was complete
Checked this morning and all are still online and healthy
We will continue to monitor and confirm everything remains online and healthy.

I did not have my backup with me when my hard drive failed and was replaced at the Apple store. Now it will not download to my new hard drive. A message says that "the volume has the worng case sensitivity for a backup". How can I resore my data from the backup?

My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD.

My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD to install the OS package. It would boot for a while, get through the first cd of install and would stop randomly in the next install. I found out that the installation disk was cracked so I went out and purchased the Mac Box Set which includes Mac OS X Snow Leopard, iLife '09 and iWork '09 under advisement from an associate at the local apple store. Now, I try installing this new OS disk and all I get is the apple logo without a spinning wheel for about 10 minutes and the computer restarts and does it again. I have tried booting from disk, holding c while starting up, and in safemode, holding shift while booting. Please help save my poor poor macbook!!!

These errors look like corrupt or missing files that leopard requires. It sound like you need to start from scratch: format your drive, reload Leopard. I realize that this is probably what you are trying to do.
If you cannot boot from install DVD and cannot successfully get into Safemode or Single usermode (due to a corrupt or incomplete install) then you will need another computer to assist you.
If you can get it into Target Disk Mode and have another Mac you could plug it into that Mac and reformat it.
If it will not go into TDM then you may need to take it out and put it into an external enclosure to plug into another Mac to format it.

I have a 27" imac (intel) my hard drive failed and I installed a new one. This is my first time dealing with this so I am having trouble re-installing the OS. Install disc spits out and ? mark with folder appears what am I missing?

Like the title says. My 1 TB drive failed and unfortunately my computer isn't covered on the replacement program even though my hard drive is the one they are claiming to replace. So that is not a solution just to get that out of the way. So I replaced the hard drive. What I am having trouble with is re-installing my OS. I have 10.6. When I load it and restart it just spits it out and I get the question mark folder. What am I doing wrong is there a step I'm missing? I did do a back up to my Time Machine before the crash. Can I plug it into it and reload format? I'm new to this so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Well, let's hope that nothing was jiggled out of place when you were installing the new hard drive. Your optical drive may just be out of alignment or the disc you have is "dirty." Get a lint-free cloth and some rubbing alcohol, then clean the disc as thoroughly as you can starting from the center and working outward in a concentric circlular motion. See if that helps. In particular clean the inner portion well.
If this does not help, then you have a problem. You have opened the computer yourself. That action voids all support from Apple. If you take the computer in for service the store may refuse to service the computer. This is not related to your now expired warranty.

The Time Capsule drive is a network drive. You have to mount it on the desktop before you will be able to drag/drop files onto the disk. More tips are in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17312017#17312017
.....and then delete them from the Mac to free up space?
The Time Capsule was designed for your backups.
If you move a file to the Time Capsule drive and delete the file from your Mac.....you have no backup.
Your only copy of the file will be on the Time Capsule drive. I would only do this with files that I could afford to lose.
All drives fail. When.....not if....the Time Capsule drive has a problem, you will lose your data.

Downloaded program. Hard drive failed and program lost. Any way to retrieve it?

I purchased my iMac in Dec. of '07 and purchased iWork shortly thereafter by download. Unfortunately my hard drive failed and I didn't have a backup so I lost not only my iWork but also my Snow Leopard update. Is there any way to retrieve these (especially iWork) without having to purchase them again? I haven't had any luck getting through to Apple support.

I you purchased iWork "shortly after" your Mac purchase, there was no app store; the only way you could have bought it was as a retail disk or, if there was a trial version on your Mac, you might have purchased a registration number. If the former is the case, you should have the disk; if it's the latter, I'd suggest calling Apple to see if something can be done.
And: your next purchase should be an external hard drive so you can make a backup.

Imac hard drive died and was replaced by apple. Data lost but is remains on ipads. Computer address is different so can't sync without erasing ipad data (which I need back on repaired imac). How do I do this?

How do I transfer data from and Ipad/iphone to an imac with a different address then initally setup with? Our hard drive died and was replaced free of charge by Apple, our data was lost on the hard drive but exists on our small devices.

Since Apple replaced the hard drive does that mean you have AppleCare? If so, call them. If not, you must have paid pretty good to get it replaced and so I would think you have some possible right to ask a followup question at the store that did it.

How to recover music from shuffle after couputer fails and is replaced

How do you recover the music on the shuffle after computer has failed and been replaced?

Open the Trash. Select all the music files, then use the pull down action menu (the one with the gear) and select "Put back". That will get the files back to your iTunes Media folder.
To get them back to your music library, use the iTunes File menu > Add to library and select your user account/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music folder. That will add anything not aready in your iTunes library.

My hard drive failed and during the setup of Illustrator CS4 on my new hard drive/pc, I was told I had reached the maximum number of licenses

My hard drive failed and during the setup of Illustrator CS4 on my new hard drive/pc, I was told that the maximum # of licenses for my serial number had been reached and so I am unable to install Illustrator on my working computer. This happened a couple of years ago and I called Adobe and they were able to 'reset' things but I don't see any way to talk to someone now to resolve this problem. BTW, I have the failed hard drive slaved in my new computer and am able to access files and such things, but have no way of uninstalling the Illustrator on my old drive. How do I fix this issue?

Contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.

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).

HT2729 i downloaded 3 songs to my pc and sync'd my ipod and the songs do not tranfer. is this related to not having the proper itunes version vs ios? I cannot get the songs to sync, but I can move other songs to different playlists and they sync fine...

Hi Dennis!
I have a couple of steps for you to try in order to get those songs transferred to your iPod touch. First, make sure all of your software is updated with the latest versions. If the songs were downloaded from iTunes, you will also want to delete the songs from your library and then download them again from the list of past purchases on your iTunes account. An article about doing that can be found here:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
If you try a sync after those two steps and are still seeing the issue, then I would like you to try syncing the iPod by setting it to manually manage. An article outlining more information on manually managing your iPod sync can be found here:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
If you are still having issues after that, I have another article that can outline some other reasons why your songs may not transfer to your iPod, and it can be found here:
Some songs in iTunes won't copy to iPod
