MDT and computer with SSD drives causes warnings

Has anyone noticed that computers with SSD drives are causing task sequence errors with MDT. I think that some machines boot too fast and the network is not ready yet. Deployments dont fail, but they end with error message.

With all due respect, I would not blame the SSD drives, as much as I would question your network.
Is your DHCP server just slow and/or overwhelmed? What about PortFast?
Get your network guys to document the latency of DHCP request for your location. If necessary, have them do a trace.

Can I change hard disk with SSD drive in Toshiba NB100?

Can I change hard disk with SSD drive in Toshiba NB100 ?
The Hard disc in this model is same size as SSD 2.5" drive?

Hi
As mentioned above: the SATA controller is supported so you will need to use a SATA SSD drive usually it should not be a big problem to upgrade the notebook with an SSD drive in some cases it could be possible that the SSD firmware needs to be updated but this depends on the SSD drive manufacturer
However, the SSD drive is much faster than a common HDD. Therefore you should notice a faster performance

How to set up bundle on new computer with SSD and 2 TB harddrive?

I bought a new computer with a 120 GB SSD and a 2TB datadrive. I have 16 GB RAM and am runnung windows 7 home edition (64-bit operating system). I just have my OS on the SSD which now only has 75.2 GB free. I searched on line and tweaked the SSD to get the most space. From what I've read many suggest putting all your programs on the SSD (which I think will fill up very fast) and just using the Datadrive for pictures, files etc. I'm thinking that maybe some should be loaded on the datadrive and maybe the one that need it could be put on the C: SSD. I have no idea!! Looking for advice. I bought the Production Premium bundle. Thanks for any help!

Addendum: I tried all of the suggestions on the Firefox web site, but they do not match the options available on 16. There is not "Manage Account" option that I can find on 16.

Speed Up Photoshop (and Everything) With SSD

'Tis the season to spend money.
FYI, today on Amazon.com you can get a ridiculously fast 256GB OCZ Vertex 4 SSD drive for only $159.99, which is an unprecedented low price for a drive of this capacity.
http://www.amazon.com/OCZ-Technology-2-5-Inch-Industrys-Warranty/dp/B007RARHSO/ref=sr_1_1? ie=UTF8&qid=1353689009&sr=8-1&keywords=vertex+4
It's hard to find one thing besides SSD that can so radically speed up a computer system in general, especially for applications that do a lot of I/O like Photoshop.
No doubt prices will be dropping more in the future, but at this price I suggest ordering 2 or more of these drives and setting up a RAID 0 array from which to run everything. I just ordered one as a gift.

I'd look at Resource Monitor and your drive activity light to see if Bridge seems to be heavy on the disk. Do you hear it madly accessing the hard drive(s)?
A system run from SSD runs faster at just about everything. HDDs, especially with lots of small and relatively random I/O operations, are not at all efficient, as the seek times really add up. Plus, in the cases where there actually IS a big contiguous block of data - e.g., a big raw file on a defragged disk, an HDD still can't even come close to using all the bandwidth of a SATAII link, let alone a modern 6 gigabit SATAIII link.
Just to give an idea, some disk benchmark programs offer what's called a "Random 4K" test, which means the benchmark will generate random small I/O requests to/from various parts of the drive. An SSD-equipped system may be able to sustain tens of megabytes/second of actual data throughput with random 4K operations. By contrast a hard drive may achieve only a twentieth of that or less. That's the difference between something taking 1 second or 20 seconds.
Here's an identical benchmark run on my SSD array vs. my Hitachi 1TB hard drive (which I use for internal backup). Note that the difference is more like 30 to 1.

I updated the bios of my laptop via hp web page; and i don't know if there a problem with high capacity 256 gb of ssd, could be a problem for this old laptop? i need something else special update or drive??
and wich could be the best ssd unit ( Crucial 256 GB m4 2.5-Inch or OCZ Technology 256GB Vertex 4 Series 2.5-Inch)
thanks
This question was solved.

Hi,
Your laptop supports only SATA II connection so it's a bit pointless to buy any SATA III SSD as they will work as SATA II drives. The service manual says that DM4 laptops support 160GB solid state drives so any SSD should work as I don't think that the capacity is a limit. OCZ, Intel, Corsair and some others have good drives so pick one of the SATA II series of these manufacturers. I have seen some cases that a SATA III SSD didn't work but a SATA II one did on older laptops. Perhaps the newest SATA controllers and older BIOSes might cause some compatibility issues..

Upgraded my 2009 iMac with ssd drive

Hello
I wanted to share my experience with upgrading my late 2009 iMac replacing the DVD drive with a 240GB SSD drive and upgrading the hard drive to a 3TB hard drive. Back a year ago I upgraded the factory 1TB with a seagate 2TB which was the main internal drive holding the osx. With needing more room I discovered the seagate 3TB also had the necessary heat sensor connector, so I knew that 3TB drive would work. Adding the 240GB SSD was a last minute decision. Plus, I seldom use the factory standard DVD drive and discovered that my LG brand USB dvd drive actually works when attached to the iMac. Operates just like the factory DVD drive.
So having done an upgrade before on this machine, I was not too concerned, but have to add that all did not go well this time.
Alter removing the screen and all the screws, then while carefully unplugging all the wires attached to the monitor, that one plug labeled LCD TEMP, that tiny little plug, broke at the circuit board. I was not using too much pressure and suspect the stress on these delicate connections had reached the limit. Both from the previous upgrade, and now another. The plug was simply stressed and ready to give way.
Maybe this plug was defective, I don't know, but the snap-in plug pulled the top of the black plastic circuit board connector off, exposing the two copper connector prongs. Not only that, but the two copper prongs that were now exposed were curled upward. Making re-attachment of the plug near impossible. So I figured maybe i could re-attach the tiny LCD TEMP plug back onto the exposed prongs and then electrical tape over to hold in-place. But first I had to somehow get the curl out of the two copper connector prongs for the plug to connect.
Well, while using a small screw driver to try to flatten out the curled copper prongs, one copper prong exceeded its stress level and broke off. Could not take the stress of being bent and messed with. Everything inside these machines are extremely delicate, as everyone knows only too well that has ever opened up their imac.
And now, a broken LCD TEMP circuit board connector. What to do, what to do?
Kill two birds with one stone.....
But first I wondered if this LCD TEMP sensor would keep the system from operating, so I put the machine back together, half way together, and powered it up.
The machine came to life, however, the CPU fan was running crazy fast 3800 and noisy as ****.
Googling this, I came across another person that had the same LCD TEMP cable break, and saying their CPU fan went crazy in the same way.
So I realized somehow the system needed this LCD TEMP connector, connected.
What to do, what to do?
I ran over to radio shack and bought the lowest wattage soldering iron they sold.
Now, this killing two birds with one stone part...
I had to somehow solder two new wires onto the spot where this LCD TEMP board connector attached to the circut board.
No easy task since there was only a hair-lines space between the two circuit board connectors. I had to somehow achieve the impossible.
And while at it, killing off the second bird, I could replace this LCD TEMP wire itself with new much longer wire set, making this disassemble - reassemble thing much easier.
Well I pulled it off.
I was able to solder two new wires to the spots on the circuit board where this LCD TEMP connector sits.
Without bleeding solder onto the partner connector just a hairs-line spaced between.
Then I patched in this new and longer pair of wires from the circuit board LCD TEMP to the monitor LCD TEMP sensor.
And finally, replaced the DVD drive with the new 240GB SSD drive, slapped the machine back together half way just enough to power it up, cloned the osx hard drive to the SSD drive, "option-restart" the machine and booted from the new SSD drive, everything working as it should.
I even dismounted the orginal internal hard drive holding the osx, and ran the system to ensure everything worked, which it did.
Next, tore the iMac back down, replaced the 2TB hard drive with a new 3TB hard drive, and for a final time slapped the system back together.
Everything is operating perfect,
Naturally, had to format the new 3TB hard drive, and will move all my iTunes media back to that new drive I had temporally stored on an external USB drive.
Fans are all running at normal speeds.
System is once again silent when running.
And this is the last and final time I will ever upgrade this particular machine sober.
Just some advice, this is some of the unforeseen mishaps that can occur when upgrading any iMac.
And this could have ended in disaster.
Luckily however, I had just enough luck and experience to get thru the hurdles, now I have a better, bigger, faster iMac.
Like they say, this self upgrading is not for the faint of heart.
For awhile I seen myself listing this on eBay as a dead 27" late 2009 iMac for sale for parts.
Not the case, well at least not the case this time....

Congratulations on not panicing and stating it like it is. Clearly upgrading the internals of an iMac is not for the faint of heart, I plan on keeping your post if for no other reason to show others why a do-it-yourself on an iMac is a pretty foolish thing to undertake.

Where best to put Events and Projects with multiple drives...

I just got a new iMac, and I need to know how to maximize its speed with FCPX in terms of hard drives.
My old iMac had two internal drives: a 256 GB flash drive and a 2 TB standard drive. On that iMac, I had the OS and FCPX on the main internal SSD, and my events and projects on the secondary internal drive (the magnetic internal drive).
My new iMac is the latest 27" iMac with an i7 3.5 GHz, 32 GB RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GDDR5 video card. It also has USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt, and only one internal drive: a 512 GB SSD drive. I am connecting a 6 TB OWC external magnetic drive (with 128 MB cache) to my new iMac via a LaCie Thunderbolt to eSATA adapter (the drive and adapter are a combination that OWC sells, has tested, and recommends). I plan to use Disk Utility to make this 6 TB external drive (which is 3 TB + 3 TB hard drives in one enclosure) raid 0 for fastest speeds.
With this new setup, my initial thought is to put both my FCPX events and projects on this 6 TB external drive. But is that the best option? Would it be better to get another high speed external Thunderbolt drive and put the events on one drive and the projects on another? I have a feeling that putting them on one drive is the way to go, and that there would not be much, if anything, to gain by putting the events and projects on separate drives. But I'd really appreciate any advice.
Thanks!

Hi Russ--
Only in the past year I have implemented a backup strategy. I've never had an internal hard drive fail. Until recently, I had never had any drive failure. Then I bought some desktop external drives from Seagate and paid quite a bit more for Seagate's FW800 adapters for them (my last iMac only had FW800 and USB 2.0). The drives kept getting corrupted, so I was copying terabytes of data back and forth to restore the affected data. Turns out it was the FW800 adapters all along. Seagate was aware of the problem, and had a firmware upgrade, but has done absolutely nothing to publicize the fact. I'll never buy their stuff again.
But I'm still using Carbon Copy Cloner (great software, great support), and now that I switched back to the original USB 3.0 interfaces, the Seagate drives are reliable. So I will continue to use CCC and those drives as my back-up strategy. I was playing with fire for decades by not doing any backups. It's ironic that I only started having problems when I started to back things up!
The speed of the 512 GB internal drive on this new iMac is insane (the external drive arrives tomorrow, so I don't know about it yet). The internal SSD drive clocks in at 697 write and 723 read (compared to 179 and 207 on my old iMac's internal SSD drive). I am anxious to see what the external drive clocks in at tomorrow.

Moving catalog and photos with external drive, Elements can't see catalog database

Tried searching, but couldn't find my situation.
I have an old computer with a second hard drive (1.5 TB). I pulled it from my old computer and put it in the new computer.
I also copied my "My Catalog" folder which contains the catalog database file (catalog with a type "PSE8DB").
Got the second drive installed fine in my new computer.
Reinstalled Elements 8.
But the File / Catalog dialog box can't seen the existing catalog database. I can browse to the folder, but it doesn't show up.
Old computer was Windows XP. New computer is Windows 7.
Both are using Photoshop Elements 8.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

John,
1 - Where are your photo files located ? What is the drive letter assignment of this second drive ?
My suspicion is that the photos (and perhaps also video files) reside on that second hard drive which you physically moved and installed in the new computer.
2 - Where is the PSE Catalog file (both on the old XP system and on the new W 7 system) ? Is that folder containing the PSE Catalog on the C drive or on that second hard drive which is now installed on the new W 7 system ?
3 - FYI - I agree with the DJ Paige recommendation to "In Windows, double-click on the *.pse8db file" as a means of starting the Organizer with the Catalog that you previously had under XP . This generally works on most versions of PSE although I did have an experience with PSE 8 where it did not work initially.
4 - FYI - If your photo files were stored under My Pictures under XP, then I think that the other suggestions about PSE not being able to find photosand needing to do a PSE Backup are relevant -
"You catalog will be holding the absolute location of the files in the catalog. These will no longer be valid when porting to Win7 from XP"
However, if your photo files are stored on that second hard drive, I am skeptical about that conclusion.
5 - FYI - I have seen a report of successfully moving a physical second internal drive from old XP PC to new Windows 7 PC with PSE 10. I think that you should be able to do the same with PSE 8.

New Mac Pro - won't boot up with SSD drives attached

I have a new Mac Pro. It came with the stock 1TB HD. I installed two OWC SSD drives in the two optical drive bays. I booted up and the MacPro saw the two new drives. I set up the two new drives into a RAID0 setup with Disk Utility which worked fine. Then I cloned the 'Macintosh HD' drive so that I could use the two new SSDs as my boot drive.
When I removed the stock 1TB drive the machine will not boot up. I am stuck on the gray startup screen and it never even makes it to the Apple logo.
Even worse, when I reconnect the stock 1TB drive the machine will still not boot up if either or both of the SSD drives are connected. When I remove the SSD drives the machine boots fine.
Very weird - must be some weird RAID stuff going on.
Any ideas?
David

Hi dschamis
Just out of interest, what application did you use to clone from your HDD to the OWC SSD?
I had the same problem, but I was using only one SSD, when I cloned from a VelociRaptor 300GB HDD to an OCZ Agility EX SSD in December 2009.
The SSD "bricked", and when I contacted OCZ they told me that they did not recommend cloning from a HDD to a SSD. In fact they definitely advised against doing so.
I had used SuperDuper to clone from the HDD to the SSD.
When I received the replacement SSD ( OCZ sent me their top of their range Vertex EX), I didn't take any chances, and I did a clean install of the Mac OS and all my applications.
Everything was 100% OK, and I have not had a single problem with the SSD since then, but I never clone to it or from it. I just use Time Machine to back up to a WD My Book SE II 2T external drive, but I do have the original 640GB Apple (WD) HDD as a backup/emergency system boot drive in an external enclosure.
I have just ordered, and received, an OWC MercuryExtreme Pro RE SSD, which I will be using as my system boot drive solely for my photography related applications, and I will use the Vertex EX for the remainder of my applications.
However, I am not even going to risk using SuperDuper to clone the OS or any of the applications from the Vertex EX to the OWC SSD, although OCZ said it was OK to clone from SSD to SSD, and I will do a clean install of the Mac OS and the photography related applications on the Mercury Extreme Pro RE SSD.
Hope all goes well when you receive your replacement SSD.
If in doubt do a clean install of the Mac OS!
Regards,
Bill

How to Upgrade Qosmio F50 with SSD-drive

I want to upgrade my Toshiba F-50 with an SSD-Drive 80 GB (Intel).
Can anyone recommend an SSD drive, I would like to use Intel 80 GB.
Do I need any Firmware Upgrade or Upgrade for VISTA ?
Thanks for help

Hi
Since Qosmio F50 support an SATA HDD controller you should use an SSD drive which supports an SATA interface
But the SSD drive is not many different from a common HDD and therefore it should not be needed to update any firmware.
Usually you would need to install just an SATA driver in order to recognize the SSD drive.

Should i use "HDD protection utility" in connection with SSD drive?

I've replaced HDD with SSD and reinstalled my Windows. Accidentally I've installed "HDD protection utility"? Is it absolutely useless in system with SSD? Should I uninstall this utility?
Thank you.

Since one month I use SSD with my Satellite Notebook. I have installed original recovery image that includes HDD protection utility. I can start it but it is inactive.
Strange thing is that with HDD it was inactive too. To be honest I dont care about that. It is preinstalled but I have disabled it from automatic start-up.
In my opinion you can remove it from the system.

Support for an Upgrade and issues with Hard drive full.

I am on 10.6 Snow leopard and I need to get migrated into something later so I can take on better technology such as the ICLOUD and maybe get more productive. I am out of space on hard drive also and I have an older MAC. What can I do to keep going and maybe get upgraded and also not loose data. ? any suggestions, The Maverick upgrade says my older mac is not compatible.
Thanks
Steven Moore PS

I would be 'careful' and cautious with WD MyBooks anyway, but FW800 can be a great external off line backup.
What I would do is split two 1TB drives:
Drive A: OS and apps, 2nd partition for backup of Drive B which has all your media and data files.
Drive B: most all of your documents, video, music, photo, etc. which gets backed up to the 2nd half of boot drive.
Also, leave room for a backup of Drive A's OS and applications and for repairs and such like Disk Warrior.
It makes a "criss-cross." Great for dual drive setup.
I'd put your 250GB drive in FW case for backup also running Disk Warrior maintenance.

Upgrade Ideapad S10-2 with SSD-drive

I am wondering if it is possible to use one of the Mini PCI Express Card slots for a SSD drive and if there exists a compatible product in the marketplace. It would be great to use a SSD-drive as boot-drive and the harddisk for data. Does anybody know a solution? Thanks in advance

Hi and welcome to lenovo forum...
unfortunatly , even when you found a minipci-e SSD ... there is no option to boot from minipci-e ...
and only a few minipci-e cards will work at all ...if its not on the whitelist they wont work...
and SSD in 2,5" Sata-HDD form is faster, "cheeper" yes it is and could replaced the HDD without trouble like above..

Problem with nvidia driver, causing system to be unusable

Hello, I've got a problem I assume with nvidia driver. My graphics card is gtx 460, here's my usual glxgears output:

Hey Vazz, there is a problem with the nvidia linux drivers/gtx460 hardware, but sadly it only affects a small population.
There is a thread on the nvidia support forums with many others having more or less the same problems.
Still no response from nvidia yet... In the meantime use nouveau.
