OKR choose from 2 drives

Hey guys,
I'm looking to buy an SSD for my IdeaPad g780 and I'll replace the bluray/dvd drive with the ssd and an adapter. That way I can have enough storage and fast speeds. For the optical drive, I'll get an external case so I can still use it.
Now that I get a new drive, I think it would be the right time to fully set back the laptop to factory settings. I wanted to do that for a while because it has become a lot slower and I feel like it's full of trash. For that I wanted to use the OneKey Recovery tool since it is so convenient.
So my question is wether or not I can choose the drive I want to put everything onto. I'd like to have very fast boot ups and still space for some games on there (I'm getting an MX100 128gb) so my OS (Win7) has to be on there. If it's possible to choose one disk in OKR or if you have a way which is better and/or faster, please let me know .
Regards, PL

Believe I got a solution from a friend a couple days ago:
He said I needed to network in the old G5 computer, then do a Consolidate.
It worked.
After networking in the G5 and hitting Consolidate in iTunes, the iMac cranked away for a while, pulling the music from the HD2.
No exclamation points. iTunes seems to be back to it's normal self.
Yes, there seem to be a number of duplicate files in the iMac, but they are not currently linked to iTunes. I'll see how things are going over the coming week, then delete those files.

  • Migration Assistant doesn't allow me to choose what drive.

    Well, I got my new computer. I tried to migrate a drive from my old computer using Migration Assistant. and it doesn't allow me to choose what drive.
    In my old computer I have 5 drives. The original HD (was 10GB, was replaced last year by a 40 GB) and on my Hitachi 250 GB drive that I added 2 years ago, there's a partition with 4 drives.
    I wanted to migrate one particular drive from there (called Current work).
    First I did a mistake. I connected both computer via the firewire in the afternoon when there was enough daylight so I don't have to do it later at night (the computers are under the table.) I thought it's OK since I'm not pushing any button yet ("migrate now", "transfer", and such).
    I turned on the new computer and a message appeared: you must restart.
    That's strange, I said to myself. it's a brand new computer. Usually It says that when there's a problem, but OK I restart and when it's back on, I see that my external drive (Neptune from OWC which was still hooked up in the old computer) is on the desktop. And it took just a few seconds. I open it and all the files, etc. are there. It did copy the whole external drive !
    I'm not an computer expert but I believe the Mac Pro did notice that's there's a firewire hooked up and then, without asking me, migrated the external drive and that's why it asked me to restart. I would have prefer if it tells me "restart so migration can begin".
    I don't mind for now that my external drive is on my new computer. I can always erase it if I don't want it. It is still external right ? so it doesn't intrude on the 640 GB of my HD so I just keep it.
    But it also copied/migrate Mac HD 40 GB which is full of OS 9 and I almost never use it anymore. I don't want it coz it has applications and they advise not to migrate applications (certainly not applications with issues).
    They say migrate folders, settings but re-install applications.
    And it migrated also another drive called "Scratch" which has only personal date no system, no software.
    Anyway, I erased everything and re-installed using the Install disk that came with the computer.
    BTW, what they say in the manual (p. 90: Re-installing the software that came with your Mac Pro) is different than what really happens.
    They say insert disk, double- click on Install and then click options in the "Select a destination" pane of the installer. Then click "erase and install" Problem is: there's no "Select a destination" pane. Or any options.
    I had to go to Disk utility and erase, then re-install OS X.
    Then re-install the applications using "Install applications" (the other disc that came with the computer. )
    OK, I did that. Then while everything is empty, new, I used Migration Assistant.
    Now here is the reason why I post this.
    They say hold T key until you see a firewire icon then select a drive. I can't see when there's an icon coz I have only one monitor, so I just hold and hold the T-key and turn on the old computer. The screen shows "waiting for you other computer to restart" 2 min.... 5 min... 7 min. Nothing happens. I stop holding.
    I look at the desktop and I see that the icon of the old 40 GIG Mac HD is there. (and I believe with a firewire logo, but not sure about that.)
    I have the impression that if I kept the T-key longer it would have migrate the other drives as well.
    They say keep the T-key down until you see the firewire (then let go I suppose. As I said I don't see what's going on on the desktop of my old computer so I kept the T-key for a few minutes. I also tried another time to let go after 1-2 min. No difference.
    I shut down the new comp. and the old computer screen appears automatically (both are connected to the monitor; the old with analog port, the new with digital port) and sure enough the firewire icon is moving on the screen.
    I go back to the new computer and put the old 40 GIG Mac HD in the trash. Actually, when it touched the trash, I just saw an eject icon and the drive disappear. Did not go in the trash which is empty. So I guess I ejected, not sure what's the difference but I looked for it to see if it's anywhere in the computer. Could not find it. Not in the HD, not in the desktop. Good, I don't want it there. Is it hidden somewhere ?
    So I tried again but wondering perhaps the old computer should RESTART not turn on (it was off) so now I wait until it's on, then push restart. I hear the gong when it shuts off but that's it, no other gong when it comes back. I keep the T-key. But nothing happened. Just see the message "waiting for your other computer to restart"
    PS: BTW Target mode (which seems to me similar to Migrating with "Migration Assistant") will not work for me because it must be SATA, mine is ATA.
    I didn't try but read that it has to be SATA.
    Is it the same ? In migrating they say hold down the T-key (T for target)
    And how come that my 40GB HD which is ATA did migrate (not that I wanted too but still).
    Also, this drive ("Current Work") that I want to migrate to the new computer is in my external drive. Can't I just drag it ? If it has only personal data, files and folders I know I can, but It has system (OS X) and applications. It's the one I use and boot on, in my old G4 but I want to transfer Files and folders and settings, so the new computer will know what are my Safari preferences, Automatic fill-in, and perhaps it will move my iTunes music Library too ?
    Basically everything except applications. Although I would like my Nikon scanner to be in the new computer as well as the LaCie DVD recorder but I guess I can do that later, separately ?
    What are the settings or info I need ? Because if it's just Safari preferences, automatic fill-in and other such small thing, it might be better to just do it again in the new comp and forget about the hassle of migrating.

    Try getting into Windows and then plugging in the Superdrive. The drive will only be attached to one OS or the other, not both.

  • Hard Drive Crash - need help with choosing new drive and installation

    My hard drive seems to have crashed. My computer froze, and when I tried to reboot, it got stuck at the startup screen. I started from the system CD, ran the disk repair utility, and it said it could not repair the disk. I ran Tech Tool Pro and it could not repair the disk. I tried to start up in Target disk mode while connected to my older G4 iMac (that I'm using now as my backup), and the disk would not mount. So I need some expert advice - I am assuming the hard drive is toast. I wish I could at least mount it in target disk mode to transfer files, but I haven't been able to do that. I was going to take it in for repair (or possibly buy a new computer), but after reading some of the posts here, I am thinking I could just replace the internal hard drive with a 3.5" SATA drive.
    What I need to know is am I correct about this? And is this the right kind of drive for my iMac? Are there any specifications I need to be aware of when ordering a new drive? I downloaded the manual explaining how to replace the drive and it looks doable. I would appreciate any guidance as to choosing the new drive (specific brand names/models would be great), installing the drive, and tips for formatting, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Welcome to Discussions - any 3 1/2" SATA drive will be fine, go to [macsales.com] or [smalldog.com] or [newegg.com] and choose whichever drive fits your wallet. Most of them are reliable, I have heard of problems with Seagate and Hitachi, but there are always some failures with any brand. Make sure to get a good warranty.Instructions will come with the drive, but you can download them from [Apple|http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/imac> as well.

  • Choosing from multiple itunes libraries with ATV from same computer.

    Hello to Apple universe. this question pertains to seeing and choosing from multiple librairies that i created through itunes on my one imac music server.
    i created a second library on an attached external drive as my internal is almost full. I was wondering if there is a way to configure either itunes or ATV or both so that when I use ATV i am able to choose from which library to play from. i would appreciate steps to take or if this is an old topic, perhaps a referral link to the correct answer. Running Itunes v.10.6.3 on Imac running v.10.5.8 and ATV running v.6.2   Thanks for your time. John.

    If you set up homesharing in iTunes on the Windows computer, using the same ID and password as used with your first library, then both libraries will show up under the computers heading on the Apple TV. When you navigate to the computers section you will be able to choose either library and hence any content from it.

    Thanks for telling us the printer model. You are right - it isn't in the software available for auto-download from Apple servers.

  • How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

    How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
    I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
    I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
    I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
    I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
    My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
    I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
    My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
    Sigve

    Hi
    Thanks for Swift reply.
    Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
    I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
    router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
    always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
    mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
    to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
    Are the A1088 now useless?
    The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
    Please advise
    Regards
    Sigve

  • How do I move Macintosh HD drive from drive bay 4 to another drive bay

    I have a drive in each bay.  One of the drives is being removed.  I'll have an open drive bay.  I Can't remember how Macintosh HD got in drive bay 4, but it's there.  If I move Macintosh HD from drive bay 4 to drive bay 1, will the Mac recognize it when I restart the computer?

    Why move it to begin with? yes it will immediately boot from it. yes you can insure it will. there is no difference in where - maybe good idea to clone the system, have a bootable clone copy, maybe the time is right for a $100 120GB SSD now.

  • Why do I only have photos option to choose from for uploading my resume?

    Is there some setting or some kind of control I need to fix?  Any feedback appreciated. Sorry, I'm frustrated!

  • How do I set the songs on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to buy new ringtones when I already have a whole music library to choose from!

    How do I set the songs from itunes on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to purchase ringtones when I have a whole music library on my iphone to choose from and songs that I have already purchased! I should not have to rebuy music!!
    If anyone can help me on this that would be great!  Thank you!

    My comment is the same as Dyson2003.
    I am very disappointed, as I thought by purchasing a ringtone the set up would be easy - this I find to be extremely misleading. Before iPhone allows you to purchase a ringtone, they should make it very clear that to download a ringtone you will need the GarageBand programme in order to enable the ringtone to work.
    I sent an email to the support team, in the hope that they would be able to advise me. I was basically referred to a telephone number for the country that I live in. In writing this email, when finished I think I am going to ask back for a refund.
    In reading the above comments, I am even more annoyed because I've googled GarageBand only to see that theirs a cost of £2.99. I am so not impressed!
