MCS7835-H2 with two RAID

Hi All,
I have the following situation. The Quality Management is running on MCS7835-H2 with  Two Disk of 72-GB SAS in RAID 1 , Is it possible to have a 6 disk 146 GB in RAID 5. You would like add the new six drives as a new RAID 5 logical partition, and would like have to partition these drives in NT assigning new unique drive letters to these new partition(s).
I would like this:
---OS---------------------------------------space extra-----------
RAID 1 (Two Disk 72GB) and RAID 5 (Six Disk 146 GB)
how is that possible?
Anyone can help me?

Actually, the default RAID level in the HP box is 1+0. If you put in 4 drives and make it into an array it will be what Cisco call RAID 10. If you put in two drives it will be RAID 1.
As Aaron says, you can put in more drives - there are 6 slots left.
Put in 6 similar drives and then open HP Array Configuration Utility.
It will see those physical devices and you can do what you like. You could make those 4 of those drives into a RAID 10, you could make all 6 of them into a RAID 5, or you could make all 6 into a huge space by choosing RAID 0 (no redundancy). Take your pick.
Once you have done that, right click on My Computer -> Manage -> Disk Management and make a new drive. Quick format or you will be there all day.
Regards,
Geoff

  • Scratch disk with two RAID arrays

    I have 2 500GB disks in a RAID0 array for Windows / programs and another 1T RAID1 array for data. Where should I place the scratch disk?

    Should I create a dedicated partition on the RAID0 array for the scratch space?
    Please do yourself a big favor and do not do any partitions. They will only slow things down, as the OS thinks it's 2 physical HDD's and will tell them (the two logical HDD's), that it needs data at the same time. Remember, it's one physical HDD (even though it's striped, it's managed as one.
    Now, here are my thoughts:
    1.) RAID 0's will speed things up. However if one of the two drives fails, ALL is lost. I do not recommend using a RAID 0 (any flavor of 0), for the system/program disk. If you do, be sure to have a great backup scheme and use it.
    2.) Now, as of CS, PS no longer has a real limitation on how much HDD space it can use for Scratch Disks. Going back, on was limited to 4GB and had the ability to set 4 of these. Back then, having say a 32GB SCSI HDD, and doing some 4GB partitions made sense. Now, it does not.
    I'd get a very fast, smaller system HDD. Then, you can use either of those RAID arrays for your media, and the other for your Scratch Disks. Having a dedicated hardware RAID controller will speed things up too.
    On my system, used almost exclusively for PS, AI, InDesign, Painter and Video editing, I have 4x 1TB SATA II's for Scratch Disks, 2x 1TB SATA II's for still & video and audio. My system drive is a 500GB SATA II. Were I building now, I'd probably go with RAID 0 for the media and also a RAID 0 for my Video Exports, with non-striped 1TB SATA II's for my Scratch Disks.
    Just some thoughts,

    Hello (hopefully someone can shed some light on my issue)
    I own as above a MAC PRO (Early 2008) this has a RAID card installed along with two 15k.7 cheetah hdd (320gb) and a spare drive, (which i made a regular drive)
    a while ago i had to replace the RAID card battery, so i did this, over a year later the same thing happened again, but as previous just left it and the system seemed fine for ages, until last night i was working in PHOTOSHOP and everything just froze and the screen kind of appeared GREEN, could not do a single thing. So restarted the mac, this time grey screen for ages and a message appeared, (macs version of blue screen) (see attached).
    I restarted the machine and this time a flashing question mark folder!
    could not do a thing.
    so i found my copy of snow leopard and got the computer to run this and at least launch the DISK UTILITY and (Interestingly in the drop down menu RAID UTILITY was also in the menu) but it did not matter which utility i used the (RAID or DISK) neither could see any of drives, just the dvd drive.
    so looked around on you tube and various forums and discovered if i take out the RAID CARD and re-plug the main lead from the RAID card back in to the LOGIC BOARD I would be reverting the MAC to a normal regular non-RAID computer.
    After performing this HARDWARE task and inserting all three HDD, and running the DISK utility from the drop down menu via the SNOW LEOPARD disc.
    (interestingly since the RAID card had been removed the RAID UTILITY  from the drop down menu no longer appeared). running disk utility I can now only see the regular (spare) hdd and DVD Drive, but the two RAID HDD , again, still do not show up DISK UTILITY?
    O.K. so i could chuck out the RAID card (AND RAID HDD) and just go with a regular set-up, and run a back restore from Time Machine on a NEW hdd purchased.
    but what is wrong with the RAID, is the card at fault or are both HDD used for the RAID knackered? can i perform any tests, to see whats what?
    thanks for your help in advanced.

    hello people, the issue was in fact the GRAPHICS card nothing to do with the HDD or RAID system ( although this did cause issues with the RAID system it basically lost its way) below is my replay to another similar  problem some one else had!
    working in photoshop and then everything stopped working and the lot froze! only option was to force shutdown (via button).
    and try to restart, hoping all was fine, this was not the case :-(
    I had the added issue of the RAID card system, that i have, this was confused to say the lease and would not behave or work, causing the start up to hang.
    so i thought the HDD must be bust and the root cause. ( but soon learnt it was not the cause )
    ...bought a new HDD removed the RAID card and replugged the cable from RAID card into LOGIC board, ( making the computer act like any normal non-RAID system). I managed to install the OSX, using the snow leopard disk way. once the mac was running, i started to notice the screen would flicker and started to see 'artefacts'. so i started to reveal my symptoms to the web and forums and soon discovered that my graphics card could be the issue all along?.
    (nvidia geforce 8800gt 2x dvi).
    I read up on that a fix, could be either A. reply the thermal paste, as the card could be over heating or B. stick the card in the oven trick.
    Tried option A. first and nothing still issues, so last night took the plunge carried out option B. and ta da it worked! i even managed to run
    from my new HDD my lasted install OS X, absolutely fine. I then thought, maybe i could repair my RAID so replugged all the HARDWARD back in and
    carried out a disk repair and disk permissions on drives( took a small amount of time), via the SNOW LEOPARD disc - (Disk utilities) and this worked and now have my system working as it was just over 6 days ago.
    what was the cost to get this?  bought a new hdd so 40.00gbp and thermal paste and cleaner kit ( your still need to do this ) search video card trick on you tube.
    and renew thermal paste, approx 15.00gbp, technically i don't need the new HDD, but it was all part of the trial and error way i went. ( i do have extra storage as a result!)"

  • Which is better, Raid 0 with two hdds or 1 ssd?

    Hi,
    I have a macbook pro Mid 2010 with two open hard drive bays (thanks to the mce optibay.) I was wondering if it would be better to put two caviar black hard drives in raid 0 on my macbook pro, or have one vertex 2 drive as a boot/applications drive and another data drive.
    Thanks
    Sam

    I understood what the hard-drive-in-optibay meant.  Regardless, it's still two platter-based hard drives versus an SSD.  An SSD will be faster in your situation.  If you had a lot of platter-drives in RAID0 and you had some sort of hardware based RAID controller with battery-backed cache, then maybe, possible, potentially, that (really expensive) platter-based RAID0 could be as fast as a SSD.  You don't have that and can't put that in a notebook, so it ain't gonna happen for you.
    Now add to the mix, the fact that RAID0 will lose data if any one of the drives in the array fails.  You have two drives in RAID0 versus one drive in a non-RAID.  The RAID is twice as likely to have a drive failure just because you have more drives.  If you made the RAID from two SSD drives, which are more reliable than platter-based drives, then you're got something interesting.  But you're still twice as likely to have a SSD-RAID0 array failure compared to a single non-RAID SSD.  (And more than twice if it's platter-based drives in the RAID0 versus a single non-RAID SSD.)  So it's up to you to determing how much risk you are willing to take...and how much you can afford.
    Also note that some Macbook and Macbook Pro models have slower performance on the SATA port for the optical drive.  (One assumes Apple tried to save a few dollars and put in a older, slower SATA controller for the optical drive.)  I don't know exactly which models but if yours is one of those, then you may get uneven performance on your RAID0.  Whether that is noticable or acceptable to you, will depend on a lot of things that you won't  know until you try.  (e.g.: model of drive, apps you're using.)
    And it's good that "backup is easy for you."  With RAID0 for the boot volume, you're that much more likely to have a failed boot volume.  (IOW, can't boot the Mac at all, which means you'll be using that easily made backup a lot. )  Ideally, workstations that used RAID0 used them for the data, not for the OS.  For example, in video editing, the scratch disk needs to be fast, but could be RAID0 because you "threw away" whatever was on the scratch disk after you were done editing, and presumably saved/copied the final edited product to another archival drive.  But the OS was on a typical single drive non-RAID (or a RAID1 or RAID5 if necessary,) not on a single RAID0 array for both OS and data.
    In your situation, you can't separate the OS and data onto separate RAID arrays, so in general, RAID0 is NOT what you want, regardless of whether you use SSDs or platter-based hard drives.  But again, only you can determine how much risk and cost you're willing to gamble with.

  • Software RAID-1 with two different drives

    Hi,
    I got a 2 TB Seagate Barracuda, which I am looking to mirror in a RAID-1 set-up. Now, since the space is filling rather fast, I suspect I'll have to keep adding disks to this machine in the future. So, I have a interest in changing to some low power (since its always on) drives.
    So, I'm thinking of making the second disk a 2 TB Seagate NAS drive (and then use NAS drives from this point on), which is a fair bit slower than the main drive. Personally, I wouldn't expect this to be a problem at all, but I thought it would be best to check with others first though
    Have anybody here tried running a RAID-1 where one disk is considerably slower than the other? Will this give any issues (other than the speed being limited by the slower disk)?

    WonderWoofy wrote:
    The speed will certainly be limited by the slowest device, as you mentioned, but what I am confused about is what you expect to achieve by continually adding drives to a RAID-1?  At some point, do you plan on changing the RAID level?  Because RAID-1 is mirroring.  If you add another drive, you will not get more space, you will just get another copy of your data... and another... and another.
    I'm not sure that btrfs would be any easier in this case, as the mdadm tools are pretty robust and certainly allow for adding and removing drives.  But if you use btrfs it might actually be beneficial if you are set on keeping a RAID-1 type setup.  This is because btrfs' raid levels are not quite like traditional raid.  If you put your btrfs array in a RAID-1 setup with two disks, it is no different.  But when you add another disk, it will continue to keep just two copies.  So if you have a total of four disks, then it will still be only two copies of any given data, meaning that you will end up with twice the space of the two disk RAID-1.
    Maybe you are thinking of a different RAID level altogether?  If speed is not the issue but you care about redundancy and fault tolerance, then you might want to look into RAID-5 or RAID-6, though these require quite a few disks.
    Ello',
    I'm continuously going to be adding drivers to the machine, not to the same raid-1 array. My plan is once space gets tight, I'll add another disk and bump it up to raid-5

  • Can I config. a SSD with two SATA drives on a RAID pro card?

    Hello,
    I'm planning to order the new Mac Pro (hexa 3.33) and want to run OS X and my main applications off of it for speed. I was planning to get two SATA drives and connect them with a RAID pro card. Is this set up compatible (i.e. running an SSD with a RAID pro card installed in the system)?
    The reason why I'm asking is that on the APPLE build your MAC site there is a note about the RAID pro card:
    "Note: Solid-state drives are not compatible with the Mac Pro RAID Card in either RAID or Enhanced JBOD mode. To add a solid-state drive to your Mac Pro in any drive bay, you must deselect the Mac Pro RAID Card."
    Thanks for your help guys (and gals)

    Thanks. I have the Apple RAID card in my Early 2008 Mac Pro and it's served me reasonably well. I use it for RAID-5 and I don't care about booting Windows so that's not an issue for me (though I confess that I hadn't even considered the implications for Windows).
    I bought the system with one Apple drive (a 1TB Hitachi) and added three additional Seagate 1TB drives and have had no problems beyond the need to replace a failed drive, and in that case the array was rebuilt and the system is behaving well again.
    Ah, so you're talking about third-party SATA controllers that go in a PCI Express slot, to which one would connect a third-party RAID enclosure via eSATA, is that correct?
    Concerning the additional SATA ports on the Mac Pro motherboard: I don't know about the just-announced models, but MacSales was/is selling a SATA cable for the prior model--apparently that model has one additional SATA port (not two) on the motherboard.
    By the way: I had a question in another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2545031) about whether it's possible to upgrade my Apple-card-managed RAID-5 array in place. If you (or anyone else with expertise) could take a quick look, I'd appreciate it.

  • Can I install a bootcamp on two raid 0 ssds?

    I have a 2012 macbook pro with a samsung evo 250 ssd and a standard 500gb macintosh hd (where the CD drive was) and im planning on replacing the hard drive with another ssd. If i raid the two ssds on raid zero will I be able to install a boot camp on the raided drive? I also would like to know if i bought a 500 gb ssd and partitioned it with two 250gb partitions could I configure on partition to be raid 0 with one of the partitions and have the bootcamp on the other.

    You cannot use BC Assistant on RAID volume sets. You will have to manually partition, and configure Windows. Since you have two disk (one replacing the original Optical drive in Optibay), you will run into issues installing a new copy Windows.

  • 2010 Mac Pro with Apple RAID card - "Drive carrier 00:03 removed"

    I've got a 2010 Mac Pro with the Apple RAID card and 4 internal identical Seagate ST32000641AS 2TB drives inside.
    I've never had a problem with the RAID card (either battery or in operation) except for one thing:
    Almost every time I shut the machine down (which I try to do as rarely as possible), it keeps losing Drive 3, the spare.
    (See RAID Utility event log snippet below.)
    [I wish I could understand why this Apple RAID card keeps losing the spare across power-cycles/reboots, but I digress.]
    So I just adopted it as the spare and it spawns the rebuild and many hours later, everything's fine again.
    ... until the last time I rebooted (Jan. 2nd).
    After the usual "I lost the spare" message upon login, it began the rebuild.
    But this time, about 11 1/2 hours later the rebuild stopped and RAID Utility reported "Drive carrier 00:03 removed".
    Bay 3 is now missing in the Controller view.
    I powered off the system last night, and left it off overnight.  Today I took all the drives out, blew the dust off and reseated them.
    Same thing.  Drive 3 is still missing, and now the rebuild task aborted.
    The drive bay location shouldn't matter, right?  Can I swap the Bay 3 drive with the Bay 4 drive?
    I figure one of two things would happen:
    (1) It will report Bay 3 as being there but Bay 4 as being missing, same situation as is now.  Meaning the problem is in the Bay 3 spare drive.
    (2) It will report Bay 3 as being missing (despite a 'good' drive being present) and Bay 4 will be the (unattached) spare, and the RAID set will be unviable.  Meaning the problem is with the drive bay itself, not whatever drive is plugged into it.
    If "Drive carrier removed" is trying to tell me the disk is bad, why do I not see any log messages about it?  I suppose a spare that never gets used could go bad from lack of use, but ... no messages at all?
    Hesitant to plunk down $160 on a new spare disk if the present one isn't actually dead ...

    I was talking about this.
    This looks like a RAID 5 setup without the parity to me. I would said it basically a RAID 0.
    Also you metioned "I guess that previous spare must really have gone 'bad', despite having never been used! "
    I wiped everything out, I selected the 3 disks and clicked on "Create RAID Set" with RAID5 selected and the "Use unassigned drives as spares" option checked.  The 3rd disk has always been marked as the spare ever since then.  You do not have a choice to create a "RAID5 setup without the parity".  If I wanted a RAID0 I would have chosen a RAID0!  raidutil now says

    Every time the system would 'lose' Drive 3 on boot, I would just keep rebooting until it was 'found', and then manually re-assign the now-'floating' drive as the spare - and the RAID would rebuild.
    There was never a problem until the day that prompted this post - when it would not find Drive 3 no matter what I did.  I turned the Mac Pro off for several hours until the drives had all cooled down and it still did not find the drive.  I left the machine on but unmounted the degraded volume until I got the new replacement drive.
    I really don't understand what you are getting at. It's like you are trying to tell me I set it up as a 4-drive RAID5 with no parity(!) and that I was in grave danger because one of the disks was gone.  The actual RAID contents (spread across Drives 1, 2 and 4) were never in danger, unless a 2nd disk had failed while the spare was not seen by the Apple RAID card.  I wasn't too worried about that happening.

  • Tiered Storage Spaces with LSI RAID Controller 9260-8i (no JBOD) - Performance Drop

    Hello
    I have a Lab-Server with a LSI-Raid-Controller 9260-8i and 2x 256GB SSDs / 6x 600GB HDDs. First I configured the LSI-Raid-Controller with a RAID 1 (2x 600GB HDD) and installed
    Windows Server 2012 R2 with Hyper-V Role on this RAID 1. This works just fine. Then I configured the LSI-Raid-Controller with additional 6x "Raid 0 Drive Groups" where each Drive Group has one single physical drive
    in it. And then I created 6 virtual drives out of these 6 Drive Groups. So far so good: my Windows Server 2012 R2 now sees 6 new Harddrives (4x 600GB HDD and 2x 256GB SSD). I then created a Storage Pool out of these 6 drives (with PowerShell /
    assign MediaType SSD/HDD) and on top of the Storage Pool a "Tiered Storage Space" with Mirror Layout (2x 256GB SSDs mirrored and 2x2x 600GBs  HDD mirrored). This gives me a Tiered Storage Space of about 1.3TB. On this Storage
    Space I created a Virtual Drive of 1.3TB capacity. Success!! It seems to work fine.... Even I do not have a Storage-Controller supporting JBOD directly, I was able to create a Tiered Storage Space!!
    Now where's the problem? Fine-Tuning the LSI-Raid-Controller Settings and the resulting
    Disk Performance....
    1) LSI-Raid-Controller: Virtual Drive Properties: What should I choose? Read Policy (Ahead or no) / Write Policy (Write Back with BBU or Write Through) / IO Policy (Direct IO or cached IO) / Disk Cache Policy (enable or disabled or unchanged)
    / Stripe Size (256 KB or ??). Do these settings conflict with the Windows Server Storage Space Layout?
    2) Windows Server Disk Management (under "Disk XY"):  Write Cache Policy? (activate Write Cache on this Device) 
    3) Windows Server Device Manager (under "Drives" - Microsoft Storage Space Device):  Write Cache Policy? (activate Write Cache on this Device)
    4) Performance - Results with Crystal Disk Mark: the inital Results after setting up the Storage were quite good (Seq R: 550 MB/s and W: 590 MB/s //  512K R: 490MB/s and W: 618 MB/s // 4K R: 18MB/s and W: 37 MB/s  //  4KQD32
    R:270 MB/s and W:37 MB/S) But 2 months later the values dropped to: Seq R: 290 MB/s and W: 170 MB/s //  512K R: 120MB/s and W: 239 MB/s // 4K R: 1.5MB/s and W: 31 MB/s  //  4KQD32 R: 9 MB/s and W: 71 MB/S). Huge loss of performance
    - SSD full? 
    5) Since this is a Hyper-V Server I put some VMs on it. The Performance within the VMs has also dropped accordingly. Are there any
    best practices when placing VHDX-Files on  a Tired Storage Space? I could of course assign one or two VHDX-Files directly to the SSD Tier, but actually I don't want that because that would use too much SSD-Space.
    Any Experts on this Subject?
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    For the settings of the Raid Controller, it is better to confirm with manufacturer for detailed information. As you said these settings will affect with storage space settings.
    From the description you set the 6 disks as 6 RAID0 groups. Is it supported to leave these disks as JBOD and directly add them into a storage space? If Raid settings will affect storage space performance, this could help us avoiding the RAID settings. 
    As data is already written onto the virtual disk, we may not available to recreate it. You could have a try with following PowerShell cmdlet to see if it will work better after optimize. 
    Optimize-Volume -DriveLetter X -TierOptimize

  • OS drive + RAID 1 with Apple RAID card

    I have a G5 Xserve with the RAID card and three ADM drives. How do I set up Megaraid to have a single non-raid drive and a RAID 1 mirror? I installed the OS onto one of the drives after a "destroyconfig". When I create the RAID with drives 1 and 2, the drive 0 is lost. THe only way I found to make it work was with a soft RAID 1 in disk utility.

    How do I set up Megaraid to have a single non-raid drive and a RAID 1 mirror?
    I'd go with not connecting one of the drives to the RAID card.
    When you installed the card you replaced three short SATA cables with three long ones - one per drive.
    Just replace one of the long ones with one of the original short ones. This will reconnect one of the drives back to the motherboard, leaving two drives connected to the RAID card.
    Kind of a hack, for sure, but in lieu of having a JBOD mode in megaraid it seems like the simplest solution.

  • GT70-0NC SSD upgrade with Super RAID

    Hello.
     I have MSI GT70-0NC-51US laptop. It does not have RAID right now, but I purchased it with a thought in mind that I’d be upgrading it to Super RAID 0 as it was advertised, as some variations of this model already have Super RAID 0. Now I am ready to do it. This laptop has 750GB HDD and primary 128GB SSD. I will be replacing my current SSD with 2 new identical mSATA SSDs. What do I need for that? Will I be able to just plug 2 SSDs? Do I need to purchase RAID card from MSI? Which? How? And where do I get if I need it?
    Please help.

    This what MSI is saying "MSI Tech.   08/16/2013   After verification, since you did not purchase the SuperRAID model (SuperRAID is an option) the SuperRAID card is not available with this unit. Only models that came with RAID setup contains SuperRAID card. However, you can still do SuperRAID using 2x 2.5" SSD. Let us know if you have any questions, thank you.   "
    What does this mean? Really?
    According to their web site from my model profile " Super RAID with 2 SSD RAID0 gives you over 800MB/s storage speed!!
    The first Super RAID design—one notebook with two SSD mSATA RAID0 units, is yet another world first courtesy of MSI. Two mSATA SSDs and one HDD can be installed in the same laptop without the need to expand the size of the laptop, increasing read, write, and saving speeds.
    *Please contact your local dealer for final sku"
    Is this a lie?
    Please help
    It most likely is.
    I don't believe that the GT70 0NC and GT70 0NE motherboards are different.
    I wish I could take my laptop apart right now and show you, but basically, the SuperRaid and the normal SATA adapter plug into a connector on the motherboard. This connector actually has support for 2 x SATA disks. If you use the SuperRaid, you can use both SATA channels. If you use the normal SATA adapter, you only utilize 1 of the SATA channels (and the other is unused, and cannot be used). Since both of these adapters have the same plug going into the motherboard, one can assume that EVERY GT70 laptop has support for the SuperRaid ADAPTER, just not every laptop comes with the superraid adapter (such as your laptop).
    Most likely, you'll have to see if you can search online and find someone selling the GT70 SuperRaid adapter, and buy that. Maybe talk to some resellers, usually they will sell you the parts as well.

  • How to enter invoice with two different tax codes in one line?

    Dear friends,
    I have this PO for which I enter the invoice.
    I recieve later a subsequent debit for this PO from the transporter. This subsequent invoice has got extra debits, one with 21% VAT and one with 19% VAT, which means two items with two different tax codes.
    I want to enter this subsequent debit for each item of the PO, and I want to enter both debits in every item of the PO.
    How can I enter in one row in MIRO a debit with two different tax codes.
    Thank you.

    I want in the same line item to enter two tax codes.
    Do you Know if there is any way to do this?
    It is a subsequent debit and it has two items with two different tax codes. I want to enter the subsequent debit for a PO with many items and enter the value of the whole subsequent invoice. So there is the need to enter one line item with two tax codes.
    How can this be done?
    Thank you?

  • I have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3

    i have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3.
    the problem is best explained on the following one - page thread: 
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3951518?start=0&tstart=0
    (Clearly i'm not alone in this problem, although i think i figured out what's going wrong a little more than he did...read on!)
    his solution, to put mainstage in jump mode, is very unsatisfactory to me, as it bounces all of a sudden to drastically different settings.
    basically, my analysis is that my controller is NOT receiving MIDI date from mainstage.  in other words, mainstage knows what my controller is doing, but my controller doens't know what mainstage is doing.
     let's say i turn the knob all the way to the right ... 127...and the virtual fader goes to the right like it's supposed to. 
    now...next...let's say i change to a different patch, where that same VIRTUAL fader is not at the max clockwise position..maybe it's only at 1pm.  now when i turn the physical knob to the RIGHT, the midi data is still at 127 on the controller!  it didn't "reset" to sync up with the new level (say 80 or so) setting on the new patch.  so i can't increase that new setting of 80 by continuing to turn the knob to the right.  i have to turn it all the way to zero,...and then continue PAST zero until the controller thinks that IT is at 0...at that point the controller and mainstage are in agreement, and things work fine....so bascially, the keyboard thinks the level is at max...but mainstage thinks the level is at 1pm.
    i am using Logic 9, and i have a macbook pro 2.9 Ghz I7 with 8 gigs of memory and OS X 10.8.4

  • WinXP with two users - can we have two separate iTunes, one for each user?

    Question:  On my Dell WinXPPro SP3 desktop with two users (myself and my wife), can each user have a separate iTunes - so what each of us does with iTunes has no effect on the other?
    Details:  Yesterday, June 29 2012, I bought a new iPad 3 with WiFi only, my first Apple product.  My #1 motive for buying it is to copy movie files (avi, m4v, mp4, etc.) from my WinXP setup (PC plus hard drive) to my new iPad to watch the movies in bed on the new iPad. I understand that I shall need to install iTunes on both the iPad and the PC in order to move or copy the existing movies from the PC side to the iPad.  (I also understand that I won't be able to use iCloud because iCloud will not run on WinXP, only Vista and Win7.)  [By the way, if iTunes will NOT help me do what I want to do, please let me know.  But that is not my question.]
    I am only one of two users on the PC.  My wife is the second user on the PC.  She already installed iTunes on the PC for her own use.  She is an avid iTunes user.   Most of the time, she does not use this PC.  She has her own WinXPPro SP3 Dell laptop, which is what she uses 99% of the time.  She has also had an iPod for some time, hence her use of iTunes.  And now, for the last two weeks, she also has a new iPhone 4S and her own iPad.  So her use of iTunes will grow.  The important point is the following - whatever I do on my side, I do not want to interfere with or disrupt her use of iTunes.  Not even for a second.
    So, can I install or re-install or somehow set up iTunes on MY user on the PC so that it does not in any way use or affect her iTunes?  If the answer is "yes", please give me a step-by-step and list all details.  Is there a YouTube that shows this specifically?  
    More details:  Right now, in C:\Program Files, before I have tried to install anything myself, there are already folders for Apple Software Update, iPod and iTunes, which derive from my wife's installations of these Apple programs some time ago.  I have just now run the Apple Software Updater, which first updated itself on this PC to version 2.1.3.127 and then updated her iTunes on this PC to version 10.6.3.25.  (As a result, the following processes/services are now running, which normally don't run when I am the user: 
      C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\AppleMobileDeviceService.exe
      C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe
      C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe
    Also, the following processes will launch the next time I reboot this PC (which normally don't launch when I am the user):
      C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\APSDaemon.exe
      C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe )
    My wife says her iTunes is NOT set for Family Share.  (That sounds correct to me, for now and forever.)
    Summary:  So, how do I install iTunes for myself (for the first time) for my user on this PC so it does not - even for a second - interfere or affect my wife's use of her iTunes on all of her devices?
    Thanks !!!

    Mr. Wiclee - thanks for the link.
    When I said I had not "installed" iTunes on my iPad, I suppose I meant I have not yet signed in to iTunes, ever.  I suppose when I sign in to iTunes the first time on my new iPad, I will be required to create a new iTunes account?  Then refer to such new iTunes account when I launch iTunes for the first time on my PC as myself?  Or will I still need to use Method Three in your link? 
    The crucial thing is this - when I turn on iTunes on the PC for the first time with me as User, I do NOT want it to connect to my wife's iTunes account.  On my PC, I would want iTunes to ask me who I am, so I can then sign in with my new iTunes account that I had just created on my iPad.  How can I be sure to accomplish this goal?
    In my PC, if I look at Documents and Settings and compare the two folders for we two different users, one for me and one for my wife, I can see that my wife's has Application Data and Local Settings for her various Apple programs.  However, so do I in my User even though I have not yet installed any Apple programs on my side.  I am concerned that when I finall launch iTunes when I am user, it will open up in my wife's iTunes account, which I truly want to avoid.
    Thanks.  Please advise.
