Larger Hard disk access

I am having a sparc ultra 10 machine.
I have 2 20GB HDD installed with solaris 8. But in solaris i could see only 8.4GB x2. i.e 16.8GB. What happened to 23.2GB?. Please let me know the solution.
Thanks in advance.
I have upgraded the BIOS also.

  • I need a larger hard disk for my mac book pro

    Hi my mac Book pro 2.53GHz 13' needs a larger hard disk do you have any suggestion? I'm thinking about a 750/1T but which brand/model works great? I do music production.
    L

    For music production, you'll probably want a 7200RPM drive, and all the current 1TB units are 5200 or 5400RPM. Consider the 750GB 7200RPM Seagate:

  • Time Machine backup created on Mac with a large hard disk. What happens when restore to MacBook Air with small SSD drive?

    What if a Time Machine backup was created on a Mac with a large hard disk, e.g. 500GB iMac - and I buy a new MacBook Air with a small SSD hard disk e.g 128GB. What happens when I need to use the larger Time Machine file to set up the new MacBook Air? What happens to all those files that can't fit on the smaller SSD drive?

    It is not the HD size, but rather the size of the data it contains. If you right-click your 500GB drive and select "Get Info" you can see how much is actually being used.
    Naturally if you are using more space than the new drive has, then you have to make some choices about what you want to keep and what you want to keep archived.
    I don't know what options are available but you may simply have to do a manual restore of files you want, in groups.

  • Slow hard disk access --- still wonky

    Hi,
    Recently i've noticed that hard disk access has become very laggy, to the point
    where it's driving me crazy.
    For example, if i want to tab-complete through my directories, i have to wait a
    few seconds each time.  Similarly with saving files in vim, or just using
    firefox, which seems to suffer frequent hangs while the disk is spinning.
    I tried downgrading the kernel to 3.4.something, to no avail (it definitely used
    to work just fine with the old kernels).  I've also tried adding "commit=60" to
    my fstab to reduce journalling access.
    I ran bonnie++ and the following results came back:

    t
    which (by comparison with other results i've seen online) seem to indicate
    there's nothing particularly wrong with the disk (it's a toshiba 7200rpm, i
    think).
    So i'm at a bit of a loss what to do next.  I've attached my dmesg output.  If
    anyone has any suggestions, that would be awesome.

    The lag tends to occur when first tabbing into a directory.  On the second time

  • Migrating solaris 10 to larger hard disk

    Hi all,
    I not sure if the word "migrating" should be used. Here is the case, we have a blade server which only have 2 local slot for hdd which is already occupied. The hdd is mirrored using hardware raid. Recently we encountered insufficient disk space and was thinking to increase the disk space. Somehow external storage is not an option here. The management bought two larger size hard disk and questioning if we can migrate/clone the running production OS to this new larger hard disk. The filesystem used is UFS and it is x86 machine. Please advise if it can be done using UFSdump. If yes, how about the partition size issue? Will it expanded? TQVM.

    Checked with the hardware engineer and they confirm that the RAID can be synced one by one without breaking it. Means, we can take out hdd2 while hdd1 still in the server with RAID1. Then we put in hdd3 (new larger size hdd) and let it sync. After that repeat the steps with hdd1 > hdd4. I found the command growfs can expand the mountpoint. Can anyone share any foresee concerns and is it workable?

  • How does one SUCCESSFULLY transfer Time-Machine backup to a new (larger) hard disk drive using OSX 10.5.8

    I have read a number of articles about how to transfer a complete Time-Machine backup to a new (larger) hard disk-drive.  Some of these articles are specifically for OSX10.6 users, which are not applicable to me since I am operating with OSX 10.5.8.
    However, I have tried several times to use the Disk Utility 'Restore' function, dragging my old time-machine volume into the 'Source:' box and my new volume into the 'Destination:' box.  This works, of sorts, BUT the newly created volume on the new larger hard disk-drive remains the same size as the original volume on the old Time-Machine HDD, with no apparent way of increasing the new volume's size.  So I am not really any better off:
    E.g. the total capacity of my new HDD is stated by 'Disk Utility' to be 465.8 GB, of which I'm told 228.2 GB is used for the Backups.backdb folder, but only 4.6 GB of free space is actually available.  Yet under the 'Partition' tab of 'Disk Utility' it tells me that there is still 236.4 GB of available space.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this issue without upgrading to OSX 10.6?

    First, how did you prepare your new drive?  See:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.  If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    If you plan to partition this new drive then be sure you create a larger partition for TM than your old volume.
    Next, clone your old TM volume:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4.Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • Excessive hard disk access

    Using Firefox (latest version) on OS X 10.6.8.
    I was on MapQuest, "get directions," adjusting a route repeatedly, when Firefox began a very long hard disk access. I closed a couple of other programs which at first I thought were the culprit. When I tried to quit Firefox (using Apple-Q) it would not quit. I finally used Force Quit (from right-click on the dock icon) and the HD access stopped.
    When I restarted Firefox it automatically went back to MQ and the HD access again resumed. I closed the MapQuest window (which was VERY slow to respond) and again quit FF as above.
    When I again opened FF, it opened a blank window (my "Home" is a blank window, "about:blank") and resumed the non-stop HD access. I quit again, moved Firefox.app to the trash, reinstalled from the Mozilla web site, started it again, and the same thing happened.
    I have not yet deleted my user data because I don't want to lose my bookmarks and cookies.

  • How do I copy my time machine back up from a smaller Hard disk to a larger hard disk; so that I can then continue to back up, through Time machine, on the larger hard disk?

    I am using time machine for backing up on an external hard disk. This has now become full and every back up results in the deletion of the first back up on the hard drive.
    I have bought a larger hard drive now and am trying to copy the back up from the smaller hard drive to the new larger hard drive, using Finder. This is not happening and the message I am getting is
    "The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a back up"

    Hello UmeshNB,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you are not able to move a backup to another drive. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
    Time Machine: How to transfer backups from the current backup drive to a new backup drive - Apple Support
    If it is not formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), reformat the drive as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with a GUID partition. If you do not know how, see the steps in this article. 
    If the drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended but without journaling, OS X may state that "the volume has the wrong case sensitivity" to be used as a back up disk.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • Hard disk access to applet

    hi,
    I have made a signed applet.. my trouble is this applet needs access to the client hard disk as it save the file transfered from the server to a perticular location. I do not want to change the policy file for each client. Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem of accessing the local disk?
    Thanks in advance

  • Any "Hard Disk Access Indicator Monitor" on OS X?

    Activity monitor、iStats menu or so only show the write/read thoughtput of th disks,
    if there's any tool like "FileMon" or "DiskMon" on Windows to monitor which program/process is using the hard disk?

    Tried this (slightly cryptic) command in terminal?
    top
    And theres always console...
    Just remember that disk access is downstream of primary activity once things are sitting in memory.
    if you're thinking you can find out what is busying a hard drive, keep in mind that the driver of a given activity may not be what you think.
    Activity Monitor is still your best window for, well...activity.

  • Support for larger hard disks...?

    just a question regarding hard disk compatibility...
    i am planning to purchase a faster, much larger capacity hard disk, but i always think a lot regarding compatibility.
    from my previous experience, i used a driver from a known hd company but unfortunately it ruined my old board.  Now, i just have to be sure whether that hard disk that i will purchase will run in my system.
    What are the things that i should know before i purchase a new one?  (i am planning to purchase a 40Gb 7200 hard disk)

    ... so, what motherboard do you have, and what BIOS-version? I would be VERY surprised if your new HDD would NOT be supported, btw!

  • Hard Disk Access

    I suddenly had problems writing to my hard disk attached to my airport extreme, so I connect it to my computer and got this:
    The Alias "Einstein"(The Hard Disk) can't be opened because the original item can't be found. Do you want to:
    Delete Alias/Fix Alias/OK
    I went to verify the disk, and was told it needed repairing, so I repaired it, and it now says it doesn't need repairing, however I still get the same problem.
    The strangest thing is that I CAN still access it - I went through terminal and it has no problem accessing and opening files, but the finder refuses time and time again, even after relaunching it or remounting the drive.
    I don't have the space to back up the drive fully. It's a 1TB drive, and I have a second 1TB drive, but that one is used as a Time Machine drive, and it backs up a small part of the drive that I have the problem with, but I dont have the space to back up everything...
    Any help would be fantastic

    You could try running the Apple Hardware Test to gain additional confirmation that your drive is good, and you could use Disk Warrior to try to repair it additionally. Also you might consider two other alternatives. First, consider the trade off between losing everything and purchasing a new 1 TB. You might want to purchase a new drive. The other possibility is trashing your TM backup. You can always start over with TM. With either of the last two possibilities, you apparently could use terminal to copy from the questionable drive to another drive.

  • Hard disk access noise

    Hi all, I just bought the DL2100 and additionally two new REDs 3TB each (RAID 1 configuration). NAS is really quiet idle, however every time I access files (read/write/stream) there is a ton of noise caused by the hard disks. Is this normal? I also have an external disk on the USB port. Absolutely quiet even during access. But the REDs spin and work even when I stream off the external HD. Seems to be somthing wrong What is your experience? Thanks in advance!Jimmy

    Hey Mike, I am talking about regular access and seek sound/noise. No weird other sounds.However, I think the hard disks are way too loud! (WD REDs expected to be quiet). I have a lot of old external and internal hard drives - not one is nearly as loud as my new REDs. Maybe I'm spoiled from my SSDs, I don't know. But seriously, the DL2100 should work pretty silent, regardless of file transfers, streaming, etc. Could also be a problem of the whole NAS construction, I don't know. Is there any hardware/software setting for "automatic acoustic management" for the HDs or the NAS system? Thank you!

  • Supported way to migrate to larger hard disk

    I am a happy, no exctatic owner of a Macbook Pro 15 inch 2.6, purchased in December 2012.
    The 750 GB hard disk is a bit tight.
    So I'm looking at getting a 1.5 TB drive and migrating to it.
    I don't want to lose my restore partion or anything else I've already done.
    How should I go about it?
    I have thought of using:
    Carbon Copy for Mac
    Clonezilla
    Booting a Live CD Linux and using dd
    Anyone done what I'm trying to do?
    Configuration:
    Main boot is Mac with refit add in to manage boots.
    200 MB for Mac boot
    200 MB for bootcamp Windows
    The rest of the drive is allocated for Centos 6.4 I use grub as the boot manager for centos and windows.
    Hope this is enough.

    Mine looks exactly like yours.
    What I'm hoping to clone is the entire hard disk.
    I've followed CCC guidelines and set up a recovery partition and copied the Mac OS parition.
    I was hoping to copy bootcamp and centos across as well, but so far no luck.
    Though I know bootcamp and the centos stuff are accessible in other ways.
    I could just as easily boot centos and use dd to do the job here. Partition up the new disk before hand using the apple disk tool and dd parition by parition using centos. Seems like an awful lot of work though.
    Since Mac OS is open source based, I assume I could do this job with dd running under the main OS. Problem there is fdisk works a little differently.
    I know i can if successfully clone non Mac paritions either before or after the disk switch. I'm a Unix/Linux geek after all.
    Thanks for all the good input.
