Does the d7900 handle Sata III HDD's over a TB

Does the d7900 handle Sata II or III HDD's over a TB? I prefer to use a 2TB Sata III

To me it sounds like the HDD is good, but the boot files on it are corrupted.   The WD Extended Test does a surface scan.    The WD Blue drives that Lenovo used are as reliable as any HDD made.

Use Rescue and Recovery to restore the system, you'll then need to update Windows and any apps & user data since that backup was made.   Or reload the OS from scratch, format the drive partition when you do (don't delete the partitions.)    When you have the OS back, but before you do anything else, as a double-check, run Chkdsk surface scan per the above link, watch to see if any sectors were bad and "spared".    If none, then the data was corrupt, no HDD problem.     Could it have been a virus that corrputed your boot files?    What Security program are you using?

  • Does dv6-6153cl support SATA III HDDs?

    I'm having trouble with my laptop and I think I've narrowed the problem down to the HDD. I want to replace it, and upgrade it, but I'm not sure what HDDs I can use.
    I'd like to know if I can install a SATA III HDD into my dv6-6153cl laptop. From what I can tell it currently has a SATA II HDD installed. Can I upgrade to SATA III or am I stuck with SATA II?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Get the SATA-III. Even if the motherboard would only support SATA-II (not true in your case) you can use SATA-III drives. SATA is fully backward compatible. But, again, your motherboard has the HM65 chipset which supports SATA-III. A good rule of thumb is if it has USB 3.0 it also has SATA-III. Not 100% true but awfully close to always true. 

  • Does anyone has the t410 with sata III hdd inside?

    Hello,
    I am considering about replacing standard hdd by ssd drive and I am thinking is it sense to put SATA III drive inside.
    Does anyone have this configuration and could talk about performance?
    regards

    I used a OCZ Agility 3 (Sata III) on the T410 previously then I moved to SSD to a W520 (support Sata III)... Both laptop boots fast and open applications at an amazing speed.... Not sure how to explain my experience though ...
    I am not sure how to measure the performance cause I didn't do any benchmarking during that time ... but all I can say is .... SSDs are amazing ... hahaha
    *Non Lenovo employee*
    I have a Y2P (i5) ... Feel free to ping me if you want me to test some applications with your Y2P if you have the same model. I don't mind keep doing recovery on it if needed .... =)

  • Does MBP 2011 use SATA III(HDD)

    Does it? So can i use SATA III SSD later? Thanks

    Impossible to answer right now until Apple publishes the specifications. I'd recommend you keep checking the Specifications Page, I'm not sure when it will be up though. The reason I'm thinking that is looking at current machines it only says Serial ATA. Another avenue is going to an Apple Store to ask or contacting the online Apple Store. The online store's phone number is listed in the upper left of the store's web page.

  • Does the T61 support SATA 3gb HDD?

    Hi:
    I want to install a new HDD with SATA 3Gb. Will it be supported by my T61 7658 CTO?
    Will it be a difference in performance against a similar HDD with SATA 1.5Gb?
    Thanks
    RC
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    T61 can use both the SATA3 and SATA 1.5 but the maximum transfer speed will be limited to 1.5 mode...

  • Does the SL410 have SATA II/3.0 Gbps?

    I'm upgrading to SSD for my SL410 (2842-FBU, bought from Best Buy in 1/10) and when I pulled out the original hard drive I see there's a factory sticker indicating the drive is SATA I/1.5 Gbps. But when I look up the model number of the hard drive itself (Fujitsu MJA2500BH-G2) it say its SATA II/3.0 Gbps. Needless to say I'm now confused. Is the laptop's controller SATA I or SATA II?

    I understand SATA II and III are backwards compatible physically, but I'm concern with having my SATA III SSD drive operating at SATA I speeds (SATA II is okay for me though).
    I see that you're getting SATA-II speeds but for the record, a SATA-III drive will work with a SATA-I controller. Of course you'll get only SATA-I speeds, but that's still an order of magnitude improvement over HDD speeds.

  • How does the iMac handle HD video editing?

    Tired of Window PCs, looking to buy an Apple System. I would like to do some video editing but want to make sure I get a powerful enough system from the start. How does the iMac handle HD video editing or should I look a better, faster computer?

    I have a mid 2011 iMac, 21 inch 4 GB RAM (the next to bottom iMac), Lion. I run Final Cut Express 4 with no difficulty (at least so far). It is certainly fast enough. My old G5, 7 years old, was also, and the iMac is faster.
    As I remember, I heard from someone on the Final Cut Express Discussions that some people might be having difficulty with FCE 4 on Lion, but I am a bit hazy. Its bigger brother, Final Cut Pro, is also available. I suggest that you post on the Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro Discussion sites. They have many reliable users.

  • I can't get the middle handles on iBooks Author pop-over widgets to work.

    I can't get the middle handles on iBooks Author pop-over widgets to work. Dragging the middle handles should resize the pop-over widget size either vertically or horizontally, but instead they resize the pop-over widget in all directions, as if I'd used the corner handles. I'm talking only about the widget image with the mountains on it, not its contents. I should be able to make a long, thin pop-over, for example. iMac running Mavericks.

  • Urgent, my HDD is dying! : Will a Lenovo MT-M 5485 -AB6 take only a SATA III HDD?

    My current HDD is a WD5000AAKS and I've been told it is not long for this world. I need to replace it, but do I need to buy the exact same model? The HDD has 500GB capacity, what is the largest capacity storage HDD the machine can handle if the replacement HDD is SATA III compatable? Does the replacement HDD have to be SATA III compatable?
    Thank you in advance, with my HDD possibly sick, I'm in a race against time!

  • How does the EDB handle deleted items and why am I only able to recover some and not all previously deleted emails?

    Hello,
    I have been unable to locate information regarding how the EDB handles deleted files.  I am able to recover deleted emails from the EDB; however, there are numerous emails that I know have been deleted, that were not recovered during the recovery process.
     Is this because the EDB dumps deleted emails once it reaches a certain amount of entries?  Or is it more likely the deleted items are corrupted and thus not recoverable?  Thank you for your time and I look forward to your responses.  The
    product in question is Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.

    Great information from the other posters and one other possible explanation is if the users did a HARD DELETE.  More information on this below
    Pre-Exchange 2010 Dumpster 1.0 worked as follows;
    1. When a user does a normal delete of an item via Outlook or OWA it gets sent to your deleted items folder
    2. If the user then empties deleted items folder those items are then marked with the ptagDeletedOnFlag attribute which in essence hides them from the view of the user
    3. At this point the user can use the Recover Deleted Items function in Outlook to recover those items as long as the items were NOT purged using the Recover Deleted Items option OR the items have not passed still the deleted item retention period.
    NOTE: Every day there is a nightly maintenance process that in short looks through  the DB and examines items that have been deleted. Items that have met or exceeded the deleted item retention period are purged from the system and are
    completely non-recoverable.  More about this at the end of my post.
    4. However if the end user were to  delete an item from the Inbox or another folder in Outlook by using Shift + Delete aka a Hard Deletion the item is left in its orignal location and gets marked with the ptagDeletedOnFlag attribute which again just
    hides it from view.
    5. By default you can only use the Recover Deleted Items option on the Delted Items folder.  Howeve you can make it so that you can recover hard Deleted items from other folders.  More on that here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/246153
    5. The problem with this method though IMO is that you have to know where to look and that can be rather time consuming.
    6. If you want a more elegant method to resolve this and are open to using 3rd party utilities check out Lucid8's DigiScope. 
    http://www.lucid8.com/product/digiscope.asp which will allow you to open any offline copy of the DB from a forensic point of view and to solve your specific issue you can either turn on a filter to ONLY
    show hard deleted items OR you can search the entire store and all mailboxes for just deleted items and can then view or export them to PST or MSG format.  You can download the product and obtain a 30 day demo license which will allow you to find any
    hard deleted items, however to view them or export your would need to purchase a license.
    NOTE: When a database is backed up or copied it is an "Offline" database and then its offline the data retention period is not an issue because the nightly online maintenance process can only act on a database that is mounted on an
    Exchange server.  So for this reason if you want to recover the most data possible use offline copies/backups of the DB with a 3rd party utility like DigiScope
    NOTE 2: Exchange 2010 and 2013 use Dumpster 2.0 which is an entirely different beast and I will not go into that in this post since its nearly 1AM  however DigiScope can expose that information as well
    Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003
    --> 2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

  • Does DV6-6136tx support SATA III?

    I just bought this DV6-6136tx a week ago and I'm wondering if i can use SATA III SSD on it.
    The chipset is HM65 which should be able to support SATA III. 
    I want to confirm this before I upgrade my harddrive to SSD.

    Thank Kamat & Pepe. 
    I heard that there is a difference between the cable for SATA II and SATA III.
    Do you know the connector within this laptop is installed for SATA III or only for SATAII as Kamat said?
    And by the way, are you guys from HP? 
    The SATA III connectors may have more pins than SATA II but because SATA III is compatible with SATA II the connectors look like the same. I believe that SATA III connectors in Sandy Bridge laptops are installed for a hard drive and for an optical drive. I mean 2 different cables from 2 SATA III ports on the motherboard..
    Yes, Kamat works for HP, but I don't..

  • How does the filesystem handle bad blocks?

    Let's suppose your hard drive develops a bad sector on it. What happens?
    I remember early products where the OS would constantly try to store new files right on top of the bad block, find the file couldn't be written/verified, then would write it elsehere... then the next time it would do the same thing again, expecting the block to "heal" I guess
    What happens on MacOS (extended, journaled) if it's writing a file and finds a bad block in freespace? Does the OS know how to "cocoon off" or tag the bad block as bad and not use it?
    Now what happens if the bad block develops underneath an active file? What's the recovery pattern? Or is there none - does it just leave the block bad permanently? Is there any way to fix that?

    Boot your computer from the DVD that came with it, and use Disk Utility to check the status of the disk. Select the disk and look at the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom. If it displays anything other than Verified, then the disk isn't going to last much longer.
    Modern hard disks don't develop "bad sectors" that the OS needs to handle. The disk drive itself automatically remaps bad sectors to spare unused sectors in a way that is transparent to the OS. When too many of those bad sectors are remapped, the S.M.A.R.T. status will report an error.
    What you're describing is a failing disk. It's more than likely the early stages of a total failure, rather than just a bunch of bad sectors. Same thing happened to my MacBook a few months ago. After about two hours, it failed completely. I picked up a new drive on the way home, and restored it from Time Machine overnight. The only data that I lost was an iTunes purchase that I made that morning (iTunes Support let me download it again). You have a backup, right?
    It's also possible that you've either run out of free space on the startup disk, or you have a process running that's consuming too much CPU and/or RAM resources. If that's the case, a reboot will clear it (until whatever caused it happens again).

    Hi,
    You can use a sata 3 solid drive but the connection is only sata 2. I would recommend a sata 2 solid drive instead of a sata 3 one on a sata 2 computer from my experience. Corsair is a good choice. But it's up to you and your pocket. Generally any solid state drives with the SandForce SATA controllers are good..
