Cannot see new Seagate 1TB Hard Drive on SBS 2008 R2 (Onboard RAID)

This is probably an easy setup, but I just want to make sure that I am doing this correctly and not mess up the current Raid Array.
This is on a Intel S5000VSA server motherboard. It has an Onboard 6 port RAID card. Currently there are three SATA HDDs connected to the right of the Onboard RAID (if you are looking at the Motherboard directly). There is another connection that
least to an external SATA port that is connected to the left of the Onboard RAID. My boss purchased a 1TB Seagate and want is connected onto the server as its own drive; not connected to the current RAID array 0.
I have installed the new 1TB Seagate to the next open port next to the eSATA connection. When I start up the server, during the boot up I see the 3 hard drives (the three original and the new 1TB). When the Windows SBS 2008 R2 finally boots up and I open
the Disk Management, I do not see the new Hard Drive that I installed; I only see the existing C: and external BackUp. I tried to rescan the drives but no go.
Do I need to set up a new Array for the new 1TB Drive?
Just to look, I did launch the RAID Bios and confirmed that the RAID does see the new Hard Drive and has a READY status. I know I do not want to do a New Configuration, because it will clear the current configuration. When I select the view/add configuration,
I can set the new Hard Drive status from READY to Onlin A01-00. When I save and exit, then look at the physical disk status again, it reads as ready.
I don't think I have to add the new Hard Drive as a new array, but I could be wrong. I wanted to get some input before I do anything else further.

After some looking around, I found a Document about the RAID Controller on the motherboard. Instead of adding the new Physical Drive as a Virtual Drive in the RAID Bios screen, I found that I was able to download an Intel Console version that was more user
friendly.
I did add the new physical drive as a new Array and once that was done I was finally able to see the new 1TB in Disk Manager.
Thanks for that Assistance Al.

I have just installed a 2TB time capsule on my iMac i7, it see my second 1TB hard drive but the 256 SSD doesn't come up in the list of hard drives I can back up. How can I enable the time machine to see my first SSD 256gb hard drive?

Greetings,
What happens when you drag it?
Make sure the drive you are moving the files to has enough available space to receive the file:
Click on the movie file and go to File > Get Info and note the "size"
Check the drive to which you are moving the file to make sure it has enough available space: https://idisk.me.com/madisonfile-Public/web/finder-drive-available-space-and-for mat.html
Also note the format of the drive you are copying too. If it is not Mac OS Extended or FAT (not recommended unless you are taking it to a windows computer) then that may be the issue.
Hope that helps.

Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail.

Hi
I got an e-mail stating that Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail, and that mine was one that may fail and to book an appointment with Genius to click here. So after making an appointment we then took out iMac to the shop affixing thirty minuets before appointment time and had to Waite until 12-45hrs. When we were told that we would have to leave the Mac with them for two to three days to replace the hard drive.
Can anyone advise, is this normal to make an appointment only to find that when you get to the Genius department in the Apple shop they then say because of the amount of iMacs that have come in today it will take days to replace?

Hi mende1
Thanks for replying but when anyone makes an appointment surely the work should be carried out then not to be told to come back days later especially when you have traveled over one hundred and fifty miles to get to the shops. It may have been a free replacement but the cost of petrol for the journey comes to more than one hundred euros.

Can I use a Seagate 1TB hard drive (Backup Plus) for extended storage/memory?

I was given a 1TB Seagate Backup Plus portable hard drive for my birthday. The only possible use I have for it is if I can somehow hook it up to my iPad2 64GB and put my documents and music on it to save my precious memory for software. Does anyone know how this can be done?
Thanks for helping...

Can't be done. Cannot attach an external hard drive to an iOS device via USB. There are HDs that include a hotspot feature letting you connect to them via wifi. I don't know if your Seagate is that kind of drive.
BTW, such a drive would behave like a cloud service, like Dropbox. You would need apps that are capable of syncing their own files to a cloud location. Unlike a computer, it's not just a matter of using some file manager to access any file you want on the device and copy it to an external source. iOS device don't work like that. For example, to get photos to Dropbox, you would have to use a special app from Dropbox that could sync photos from the Photos app to and from Dropbox.

Anyone is using the new Seagate Hybrid hard drives?

http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/products/laptops/laptop-hdd/
I need to upgrade my 320GB 5400 RPM drive and I was going to go with a smaller storage 128 SSD. But these Hybrid drives look good and you can get 500 GB for about $120.
Any feedback? Do they work ok on a MacBook Pro?

Ok I just got a 3TB Drive from Fry's Electronics its the new seagate Go Flex. I took it out of its enclosure.. and put it inside the drobo.. Drobo Tells me Drive Failed. " only for the new 3tb drive." THAT ***!!!! I just paid $200 and it tells me drive failed... So i take it out and attach it to the original usb and it works fine direct to the computer.. My drobo is attached with firewire800 and 4 bays are with 1.5tb each. and the 5th one was going to be the new 3TB drive. HUmm.... Any ideas on how I can make this drive work with my drobo ??

Mac OS wont recognize new Seagate SATA hard drive...

My original seagate SATA 250G drive failed, trying to replace it with a Seagate 2G SATA, booting up snow leapard from the disk, Disk utilities doesn't detect the drive at all, so I can't reformat or partition it. Read some info from seagate, but don't understand why i might need a host adapter card if the computer already had a SATA drive in it already... Any suggestions before I give up? It is an old mac pro, first or second gen, used it all the time and has never failed me until now. Both the broken drive and new drive are internal drives..

You should not need a Host adapter to install a SATA drive in a SATA bay.
But any mis-alignment at any stage can cause the drive connector to hit, rather than engage the backplane connector. The drive connector must fully mate with the connector at the back of the bay.
• You must snug, but not over-tighten the screws at each position with the exact correct #0 Phillips screwdriver to get comparable torque on each screw.
• The drive must then be inserted so that each roof tang catches the correct part of the sled. If one is bypassed the drive will be cocked in the bay and not mate.

How do I erase my computer and backup to a Seagate 1TB hard drive?

I have a macbook pro that is about 4 years old. I would like to back up it up to a Seagate 1 tb hard drive but I am a bit nervous I am going to mess it up. I would also like to erase my whole computer afterwards and start fresh (so to speak). Any thoughts on how to do this? Would it be beneficial? Would my computer perform faster? Should I just take it somewhere to do this or am I capable?
Thanks for your input. I tried Timemachine and I didn’t like how it was backing things up... my computer was too slow to access them.
Take care,
D

New Seagate external hard drive in dock

I don't see the new drive in My Computer although the recognizes it when I search new hardware. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi sonoma4me,
Welcome to the forum!
You would need to format the HDD in order to use it. To format the drive in Win XP, right-click on My Computer and go to “Manage”. In the window that comes up, click Disk Management in the left pane. Once it loads, you should see an “Initialize Disk” wizard pop up. Partition and format the disk to your liking.
Hope it helps.

I just had the hard drive replaced in my computer under the Seagate 1TB Hard Drive replacement program. I backed up my files prior using Time Machine. Everything is back as it should be but I do not understand how to replace iLife app to access my photo

iLife apparently was installed on the iMac at the time of the purchase. How do I get the program back on the machine. The Apple "Genius" at the Apple Stpore advised me to go to the iTunes store and get a download. How do THEY know that I have iLife? If the store in fact did install the program at purchase how do you get a copy to reinstall on the machine?

iLife is preinstalled on all the Macs. If you purchased iLife in the App Store or your computer came without DVDs, open App Store > Purchases and download the applications. If your Mac came with discs, insert the Applications DVD and install iLife applications

Seagate External hard drive ask for permission from admin when moving files in and to the drive, but I am the admin?

Today I plugged in my seagate 1TB hard drive and every time I want to move my files to the hard drive or in the hard drive itself, I have to give my admin password. The pop up box says: Finder ask for permission, click on Identity control. I never had this before.. This happened today. The settings are set to System - Read and Write, Users - Read and Write and Everyone - Read
This is very confusing. I can still copy and move files but I have to give my password every single time.
Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot! I have already downloaded Paragon Driver and it works well with seagate external hard drive. I am copying as of now my important files from my mac to it. However, I have only the trial version which will expire in 10 days. I don't have credit card to buy for it.

Windows 7 did not recognize my Seagate Portable Hard Drive

Hello,
On my Toshiba laptop, Windows Vista recognizes easily my Seagate Portable Hard Drive STBU1000102. But my HP Laptop (with Windows 7) cannot recognize my Seagate External Hard Drive. Normaly the model STBU1000102 should work on Mac and PC. I went on Computer
Management of windows. On vista, the disk appears correctly but on windows 7 (Universal Serial Bus controllers), the icon of USB appears with a yellow mark. When I tried to install it on windows 7, the driver is found but I received the message "Access
is denied".
Could you help me ?

Hello,
I thank you for your help. But up to now the problem is not solved.
I forgot to add that I have in Device Manager the following message :
The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
I made a search on the Internet about the message "Code 28". I tried the tests proposed. No solution.
But I learnt that one of the cause of "code 28" is a wrong driver.
Then I doubt now about my understanding of this message of Seagate about the device :
This software allows you to mount the NTFS partition on a GoFlex drive as read and write (NTFS would normally be read only in MacOS), so the drive can be used to drag and drop files
between a computer running MacOS and one running Windows. This image file includes an uninstall file that was not included with some early drives.
And even Amazon writes :
Install the pre-loaded NTFS driver for Mac and use the drive interchangeably between PC and Mac computers without reformatting
Does that mean that the driver of this device has to be installed on MAC OS ?

PC cannot recognize iMac's external Hard Drive on network

I have a network with my PC and iMac. The iMac has an external hard drive that I recently added. I can see my PC from the Mac and I can see the iMac from the PC. What I cannot see is the external Hard Drive connected to the Mac from my PC, only the normal folders on my Mac. Can't find anything to allow me to do this.
Any ideas?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Before I tried the software suggested I spoke with my son who finally gave me a script to enter in terminal which added the external drive as something that would be recognized. After a few tries it actually worked and I can read and write to my external drive from my PC. Thanks for the advice and assistance.
Now I just have to figure out how to get iLife 06 to load as it keeps crashing my Mac. Tried 6 times and now I have no iPhoto nor the iWeb, 2 of the 3 programs I really need and use!
Happy "Mac"ing.

Cannot see new hard drive in disk utility

Hi-
My original hard drive (less than a year old) when down hard. I bought a new Seagate 160GB SATA drive and I cannot install Tiger (or Panther for that matter) because I have no hard drive recognized in the drive utility. Curiously, I ran Apple basic HW test and mass storage checked out okay...the test just showed passed. Seagate offered no help - I can't see any info regarding jumpers or such... SATA shouldn't need it anyway. My system is completely deviod of 3rd party items - completely stock as shipped.
I then ran the extended hardware test and received error code 2GMC /2/15: built-in.
Sounds like I'm hosed. Whatever it is, it probably took out the original hard drive.

Yes, the same thing happened to me. No, solutions yet.
Were you using Software Update to upgrade?
I've tried most of the repair methods listed here and elsewhere. I think my external hard drive (external La Cie 200 gig) was damaged by the update process. As now it can't be read by my laptop either.
Very angry about this. but i'll turn that anger into another post. Good luck, let me know if you find a way to revive disks while i look for something more powerful than Disk Utility (it bails out of even the Verify Disk process).

New Seagate 1TB external hard drive is not being selected by MacBook Pro

My new Seagate 1TB external HD is not being identified by the MacBook Pro (10.7.5 Mac OSX). Whereas the same being recognized by a WIN8 OS based PC. I need a format wherby the external HD should be recognised by both Mac OS and Win.
Kindly help.
Pls note my system is being run on safe mode, as there is a problem in the left shif key. Hence, while booting, it is automatically being shifted to the safe mode. I need to format the external HD, so that I can transfer to store my data.

If you want the drive to be able to both read and write on OS X and a Windows machine, you should format the drive as exFAT on the Windows machine. As to why the drive is not recognized when you boot into Safe Mode, that may be because the drive is formatted for another OS and it MAY BE that it's disabled when you run in Safe Mode (which disables a long list of things: see -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564?viewlocale=en_US).
If you format it as exFAT on the Windows machine, you MAY BE able to have it mount on your Mac. No guarantees, though.
Good luck,
Clinton
