DOES ANYONE KNOW THE LIFE OF THESE MAXTOR INTERNAL DRIVE ON IMACS

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS THE LIFE OF THE INTERNAL MAXTOR DRIVE ON MY IMAC 20 INCH DUO CORE. I want to also know how I could expand the life of this drive with out having to know that it would just die on me one day.

I use SMARTreporter in my desktop menu for a visual que to the SMART status of my hard drive.
Product Description:
SMARTReporter is an application that can warn you of some ATA hard disk failures before they actually happen! It does so by periodically polling the S.M.A.R.T.-status of your hard disk. S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) is a technology built into most modern hard disks that acts as an "early warning system" for pending drive problems. Because SMARTReporter relies on the S.M.A.R.T. implementation of Mac OS X, it only supports ATA or S-ATA hard disks, if you want S.M.A.R.T. support for your FireWire hard disk, send feedback to Apple. SMARTReporter can notify you of impending hard disk failures by sending e-mails, displaying a warning dialog or executing an application. The current status of your hard disks is always displayed through the customizable menu item.

  • HELP!!!! I have spent hours trying to find out how to embed an image with a link or a Microsoft Word document with a hyperlink built within the document -- not as an attachment! Does ANYONE know the secret? Can it be done, or not! My PC clients do it.

    HELP!!!! I have spent hours trying to find out how to embed an image with a link, or embed a Microsoft Word document with a hyperlink built within the document -- not as an attachment into my email -- but where it shows as the email content when opened! Does ANYONE know the secret? Can it be done, or not? My PC clients do it all the time easily. Then I want to be able to send the embedded image/document (not as an attachment, but visable within the email when opened) to many email contacts at once, BUT the individuals receiveing them DO NOT SEE the other email contacts. Cannot seem to be able to find anything on being able to do these 2 tasks.PLEASE, SOMEONE, HELP!!!

  • Does anyone know the geekbench score of the 2011 2.0GHz Macbook Pro?

    Does anyone know the geekbench score of the 2011 2.0GHz Macbook Pro?  I have heard different numbers and it all seems way exaggerated.  I believe it is between 8800+...  Help.

    I found this online, but I was wondering if this is a real list of actual scores, or if someone made these up...  I will have the:
    MacBook Pro 15" 2.0GHz, 8GB Ram, 750GB (7200rpm) HDD... Not sure if this info is helpful at all?

    Does anyone know the power cord part for HP A532 printer? I need a replacement cord. THANKS!

    Here's the steps to follow if your printer isn't turning on.   
    If you've gone through all those steps and you still don't have power, there are a lot of places that sell a replacement cord and supply for that printer.

  • Does anyone know the default size for 24 in. imac display?

    I inadverently changed the display size on my 24 inch imac. The font in the toolbar at the top of the desktop is larger than I want. Also, when I open windows in different applications, they open larger than the display and have to be downsized in order to see the entire window.
    Does anyone know the default size for this display? Or is there a different way to fix my issues?
    thanks in advance.

    Hi Napamike2: The default setting for the 24" is 1920X1200. If that doesn't get you back to the proper display, maybe you have accidentally activated "Zoom". To check go to System Preferences, Universal Access. Check that Zoom is turned off.

  • I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this?

    I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this? I have found GearGrip's LCD harness so that I can do carry-on onto the plane...  Or maybe use a Pelican Case to do it as a "checked bag"? Or any other suggestions??! Please help!
    Thanks so much!!

    I don't recommend you send the iMac in a checked bag. Might get damaged.
    Check the airlines website for carry on guidelines.
    Or, if you have the original box that the iMac came in, if you have someone who can pick up the iMac for you, send it ahead Fed Ex and insure the package.
    Just make sure the display is covered to protect it. A blanket perhaps.
    Aloha ...

    This is the top story at this writing at AppleInsider:
    Like the updated mid-2014 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display, Apple's latest 15-inch notebook brings slightly speedier Intel processors. But with memory, graphics and design all carried over from last year, the most substantial change is a $100 price cut.

  • Does anyone know the file name of the root ($)?

    RoboSource Control unfortunately is not working correctly and a Rollback caused many topics to be permanently deleted. I'm waiting for approval from IT to get the 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 patches applied, but in the mean time we would like to restore our project from server tape backup. Only, I can't find out where the $ root is stored on the server to have it restored.
    Does anyone know the name of the file that is the root? I was expecting to see a file called root or $, but can not locate a file named either.

    Your DB Administrator should be able to recover a TSM backup OF YOUR ENTIRE DATABASE, not the project, from tape.  The database object the DBA is retrieving will not have the $ (or the * sign).  It will be named whatever you named the database when you created the database.
    Your database name is located on the Connection screen.
    Hope it helps...

  • Does anyone know the iso range on the video camera / still camera?

    I'm shopping around for camera's right now, my budget is very limited, and though I suspect almost any camera will have better low-light detection than the iphone 4 (not 4S), I don't know that for sure, because I can't find the iso range in the tech specs, and as we all know, Apple hardware can be surprisingly good. So, does anyone know the iso range for the iphone 4 (not 4S) ?

    Set the pixel aspect ratio in Live Type: Edit > Project Properties. It needs to be at 1:42.
    When you bring the file into FCP, right click it in the browser, choose Format and click next to Anamorphic to place a check mark next to it:

    Does anyone know the cost to repair a accelermeter on. iPod touch 3th gen

    Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for the price listed here:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Hee is one third-party place.  I do not see a listing for accelormeter replacement.  I would suspect that they would replace the logic board which is expensive but not listed.
