Empty External HDD Enclosure that is the size of the Time Capsule

anyone know a model for a empty Time capsule size enclosure to put a HDD in to act as a second drive sitting atop of the Time Capsule.
looking for one that is the same dimension, yes I know u can add any external HDD, looking for an enclosure that is the same size.
thanks

My first thought was to look at enclosures sold to Mac mini buyers.

  • Upgraded to Mavericks. Now External HDD Enclosure Won't Mount. Is there a fix?

    Upgraded to Mavericks.  Now I can't get my external HDD enclosure to mount.  A little about this enclosure, as it's not the usual settup .  I have four 3TB HDDs in a RAID5 settup.  The most unique part is that they are formatted as a Windows NT Filesystem (Tuxera NTFS).  Basically, when I set this up, I had to get a lot of info from a Windows-formatted HDD, but also be able to read/write afterwards. It's worked fine for ~ 1 year, but now that I've upgraded to Mavericks, nothing will mount.  I ran Disk Utility, where I see the HDDs (I've partitioned them into four drives of varying sizes), but they are greyed out.  I tried to mount them, but it says it won't and that I should run First Aid.  So I did...tried to "Repair Disk," but it just gets stuck on "Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required."  For over an hour it's been on that message.
    So, does anybody out there have a fix?  I've read several similar posts about people having a hard time mounting and, overall, dealing with external HDDs after upgrading to Mavericks.  But nothing seemed to fit my exact circumstances.  Lastly, I should mention that I've used both Firewire and USB connections.  Both resulted in the same.
    Thanks.

    I can't help with specifics for your issue, but some general thoughts:
    The upgrade and the disk problem may be a coincidence. It would help you if you could verify that the drive still works fine on a windows machine. If you run a windows virtual machine or have a windows pc, or a friend does, verify full functioning that way. If it still won't mount on the mac, try to copy/backup it's data onto the windows machine (maybe another external drive connected to it. You could then scrub the disk in windows, leave it unpartitioned, unformatted. Connect it back to the mac and format it as HFS+ (Mac extended journalled) and transfer the data back to it by sharing the windows machine external drive and connecting the two machines with a network cable.

  • USB External HDD Enclosure with a 500GB HDD!!

    Hi All,
    I was just wondering if anyone has come across using a 3rd party USB external HDD enclosure with a hard drive (mine is 500GB HDD). What I am trying to do is to format the HDD so both PC and MAC can use it but it will be mainly connected to my iMAC. I have tried by using PC to format the HDD to NTFS but MAC will not show the HDD on the desktop when I plug the USB to the back of the iMAC.
    I have done some researches and it seems the only way to do make this possibe is to format it into FAT32. So I have tried to use FDisk to make the partition but it doesn't seems to support anything bigger than 120GB, now I am really stuck. If anyone knows any quick and painless solution, please spare me some advice.
    Headache!!

    Windows can use, but not format, large FAT32 partitions. Microsoft wants to discourage using FAT32 for portable storage (for marketing reasons).
    The solution is to use Mac's Disk Utility to format the disk as FAT32 (misnamed MS-DOS in Disk Utility). The disk will then be read/write by both Mac and PC.
    Also, it's worth pointing out that you can read and write NTFS disks using MacFUSE with the NTFS-3G plugin. Albeit, this is very awkward to do unless you've got some UNIX shell experience.

  • Just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented.  is it wise to do this or should i not??

    just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented.  is it wise to do this or should i not??

    Let's hope a couple things: that you have bootable clones of your drives also; that the backup drive for TimeMachine has over 3x capacity of the data you plan and are storing. I would also switch TM backup drives so you have a 2nd.
    Fragmented free space affecting performance happens when the drive is too full which may mean there isn't enough free space for a full backup set.
    1.5TB for backing up 500GB, while WD Green 3TB is $140 and WD Black 1.5TB is, about the same price.
    I'd be worried about the integrity and directory, and whether you can afford to lose that drive. Defragging is also a very slow operation. the ideal: to just clone a drive, or start over with another drive and wait. cloning TM volumes has not been done or has it? SuperDuper hoped to but I don't think they or Bombich's CCC made it there.
    Trouble with highly fragged is when free space gets to 20% normally, 1/3 or so though for TM volumes, and finding where and a chunk of space for the file being written. Does TM use large spare image files of like 2GB?
    Best would be to ask in the TimeMachine section Snow Leopard
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard?view= discussions#/?tagSet=1009
    where there are some good FAQ and tutorials, and people that know the ins-and-outs and shortcomings.

    Events are organised strictly on date and time, as read by iPhoto from the Exif data in the Photo. You cannot manually sort.
    Create Albums. You can do much more organising with Albums, use Photos from different events, place them as you will. Best of all, Albums use no disk space at all. They simply reference the file on the Hard Disk. So a pic can be 1, 10 or 100 Albums with no wasted disk space whatever.

  • DeserializeJSON - is there a limit on the size of the JSON data that can be converted?

    I have some valid JSON data that's being converted successfully by DeserializeJSON... until it gets to a certain size, or that's certainly what appears to be happening.  The breaking point seems to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 35,000 characters... about 35KB.  When the conversion fails, it fails with a "JSON parsing failure: Unexpected end of JSON string" message.  And when the conversion fails, the JSON data is deemed to be valid per tools like this one:  http://www.freeformatter.com/json-validator.html.
    So, is there a limit on the size of the JSON data that can be converted by DeserializeJSON?
    Thanks!

    Thanks Carl.
    The JSON is being submitted in its entirety, confirmed by Fiddler.  And it's actually being successfully saved to a SQL Server nvarchar(MAX) field too.  I can validate that saved JSON.
    I'm actually grabbing the JSON to convert directly from the SQL Server, and your comments / thoughts led me down the path of resolution.
    Turns out that the JSON was being truncated prior to getting to the DeserializeJSON command, but it was the cfquery pull that was doing the truncating.  The fix was to enable "long text retrieval (CLOB)" for this datasource in CF Admin.  I'd never run into that before or even knew that this setting existed.
    Thanks again for your comments!

    Thanks for the help. I installed CC and it fixed everything but Photoshop. I guess I will have to use my old laptop for images until Adobe fixes the problem. Do you know of a place where we can send issues like these to Adobe?

    In the Folders Tab, right click on  folder  then click Reveal in Explorer. This will open an Explorer window with the folder selected.  In Explorer you can right click > Properties or navigate to whatever you want to measure.

    Hi ewhuntley,
    It sounds like you may be running Acrobat 11.0.07, is that correct? If so, please choose Edit > Preferences > General. In the entry Scale for Screen Resolution, choose 100%. Save your changes, and restart Acrobat. Did that do the trick?

  • Can you increase the size of the photo that shows when you receive a call from a contact

    Can you increase the size of the photo that shows when you receive a call from a contact ?

    It used to be if you added the contacts photo on the iOS device they would have a large picture and if you added it from Address Book on OS X they would have a smaller thumbnail.  However, since iOS5, all I've been able to get is the larger photo.  Try adding the picture directly in the contacts app on your device.  That should make it larger.

  • How can I change the size of the FINDER bar so that I can make it easier to read on the 27 inch monitor.

    How can I change the size of the FINDER toolbar so that its eaier to read i.e. make the text bigger.
    How can you move the orientaion of the left side menus so that they sit above a document when using word. If you have a single document open you tend to place it in the centre of the screen and the drop down menus are so far away.

    I don't know of a way to change the size of the menu bar.
    For the other, take a look at Menu Pop. I don't know anything about it. Just happened across it the other day.

    Lenovo G710 without OS (only DOS).
    I installed Windows 7 (64 bit)  on it. The OEM partition was half the size of the hdd 465,76 GB. Everything is good it is a small OEM partition, but there is already too much . Can i delete it without consequences? And there does not store any important hiden files?

    Hi Devidas, 
        I would suggest not deleting the OEM partition, as it contains system hidden files
