Old system disk setup into a Windows 8 storage space

I have a old 2TB Windows system disk. How do I prepare the disk so that it can be added as a drive into Windows storage space?
I have already deleted all but on partitions (except the system reserved partition) but Storage Space management still cannot see the new physical drive that can be added.

Hi,
The disk added should be un-formatted/un-partitioned drives, please make sure the disk has no partitions, and then add it again.
For storage space, here are some more information:

    My Windows 7 Professional desktop system hard disk got corrupted and I took the opportunity to install an SSD for a new system disk and reinstall Windows.  The system is up and running on the SSD, with my old system disk now used for storage as it is still readable.  The only Adobe product I have reinstalled so far is Reader XI but I would like to reinstall Elements 8 and Acrobat 9 without taking up more licences as both are also installed on my laptop.  Can you point me to the best way to do this?  - Thanks

    If you have the two allotted activations already and one was lost on the hard drive that failed then you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.
    For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • Finder hangs on mounting old system disk as a external USB

    Ok, I have an old system disk which was in a mac book pro that died, it ran snow leopard. I kept the disk as a storage device in an external enclosure. Up until updating to Mountain Lion I had no problems using the disk, I have removed most of the original OS folders, except User which I was trolling through slowly for old files. I also keep an old iPhoto library there as well. Now since updating to 10.8, whenever I mount that disk finder and just about anything important(system Preferences, Activity monitor, Disk Utility) hang until I must do a hard reboot. What can I do to continue using this disk without erasing it? I have tried to stop spotlight from indexing but like I said, everything hangs with in minutes of mounting this disk. Terminal relaunch commands have no effect on Finder, though it continues to run, as do Safari and Mail.

    The next time you have the problem, note the exact times when it starts and ends: hour, minute, second.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Post any messages timestamped during that interval – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • Cannot delete Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx from an old system disk

    Hi, I am running a Windows 8 64 bit system with the most current version of Flash installed, whatever that is, since I blindly accept whatever update Adobe sends to me.  My problem is that I cannot delete the Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx file from an old system disk where I have deleted everything else in the Windows folder except the Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx file.
    I have seen very similar posts by Krischu on November 27, 2013 "Cannot delete/remove Flash32_11_9_900_117.ocx" and by Gdstuart on January 22, 2014 "How to delete Flash32_11_9_900_170,ocx," and I have tried the "takeown" method and the FileASSASSIN method suggested by MikeM to both of those posts, but my Flash.ocx file just won't go away.
    I am the only user of this PC, and my user account describes me as an administrator, but I keep getting the "You need to provide admistrator permission to delete this file" when I try to delete it.
    Does anyone know how to delete this file without doing what Krischu did by loading a Ubuntu system?
    Thanks for any thoughts!

    Well Pat, I definitely do filter what Microsoft tries to load on my system, for example, their insistence in trying to sneak in Bing. Either way, I keep my system up to date constantly.
    Do you understand that the file I am dealing with is on a separate disk from my system disk? I don't see any way that the OS would automatically delete files that are not part of the current OS.
    I took the disks from my old PC and installed them inside of my new PC. The old system was Windows 7 32 bit, and my new system is Windows 8 64 bit.  As I said, there is only one user on my new system, me, and I am the administrator, so there is no "original Windows Administrator password" other than the one that I use every day. The only thing that I can think of is that the file is linked to my old admin user name from the W7 system, but even if that is the case, then why wouldn't  the "takeown" method give me ownership?

  • Getting data from old system disks

    My Mac Mini was blown up by a lightning strike. Blew the Ethernet port.
    I have a new machine and the drives from the old one. Borrowed a cradle from a friend. The drives mount.
    I can see and copy files from folders I made on the drives but the User areas appear to have no files.
    There were Images in iPhoto and documents in iBooks.
    I am guessing it is a permissions thing...
    How can I get my files of off the old system disk?
    Thanks
    SGC

    I doubt this is a permission issue, but if it is, you can resolve it as follows. Select the volume icon in the Finder and open the Info window. Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your administrator password when prompted. Check the box at the bottom marked
    Ignore ownership on this volume
    Close the Info window.

  • Sandboxing old system disk on new machine?

    Hi,
    my question is a fairly simple one, but somewhat convoluted, although I'll try my best to word it clearly:
    I just bought an '09 MacPro and stuck in 3 extra 1TB HDD's. I partitioned the 4th drive in two sections of 500GB each. On one of these partitions I want to clone the system drive of my old '07 iMac, the other partition will be used for Bootcamp.
    I will use the iMac's HDD clone as an alternative boot disk, occasionally.
    I suspect that there are some iffy things on my iMac, since power-down used to be near-instantaneous but now takes almost 20 seconds. That happened just overnight, BTW. Not a gradual process as a result of accumulating bloat, I think.
    The one thing I want to avoid, is any sort of malware creeping into my new machine because I cloned my old system drive onto the new one. Is there any way in which I can "sandbox" the cloned boot disk and restrict that system from accessing/recognizing/affecting the other disks?
    I basically want to run them as two entirely separate systems, even if they use the same CPU/RAM/GPU.
    Any sort of input will be appreciated, thanks.
    PS: what is that F8 thing again, where you use the other computer as a target drive?

    There are likely no hardware drivers on the iMac clone configuration that will allow you to boot the newer Mac with.
    Clone as a archive to access files, but likely can't boot, almost positive of that fact.
    The only chance in heck is if the OS X you installed on the old Mac has the hardware drivers for the newer Mac. Say a 10.6.3 Snow Leopard retail disk for instance. Grey disks or factory installed OSX on the old Mac configuration? Forget it.

    You can hold c boot the iMac off the 10.6 installer disk and simply install OS X over the installed verison, then immediatly Software Update. This replaces OS X only, not your files or programs, might cure your issue.
    Back up your user file folders (Music, pictures etc) to a external drive and disconnect before doing anything.
    If your still having issues with the iMac after resinstalling OS X, if your hard drive has enough room (full hard drives slow down a machine, look in Activity monitor) you can create a new user and log into that and see if your problems magically disappear.
    You can also get a Firewire cable and adapters (Firewire 800 to 400) hook the two Mac's together and T boot the iMac's hard drive to the desktop of the newer Mac, run a ClamXav scan, grab choice files and so forth, no need for a clone which you likely can't boot anyway.

    Well you likely can't clone as it won't boot anyway. So since your not running the OS on the clone on your new machine, code can't execute if it's on there.
    Far as I know there are no "hopping" malware for OS X that runs simply by connecting a infected media. OS X warns you of any new programs it hasn't seen previously before allowing it to run.
    If you T boot and jsut extract your choice files, run a ClamXav scan, your likely going to be just fine.
    Just don't transfer the old programs from the old Mac and run them on your newer machine.
    I basically want to run them as two entirely separate systems, even if they use the same CPU/RAM/GPU.
    But differnet hardware and no hardware drivers, so I'm almost positive it won't work at all.
    PS: what is that F8 thing again, where you use the other computer as a target drive?
    Hold T and boot the Mac you want's hard drive to appear on the desktop of the other, you need Firewire cable and adpater if one is one 800 and the other is 400. (defaults to 400 speeds.)
    Good Luck.

  • New machine with old system disk????

    Hi
    I've got a first generation Mac Pro and my new 8 core arrives tomorrow. Can I pull out the system disk from the quad core and put it into the new Octo? Will leopard reconfigure itself to work with the new hardware?
    Many thanks
    Nick

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    No. The license for the quad core machine limits the use of the quad core software to a quad core machine. Secondly, even if you did manage to bypass the restrictions of the firmware of the new machines, the drivers are different, and kernel panics, and non-upgradeable systems may persist afterwards. Macs have always in general can only run the system they shipped with and newer systems up to the limits of their hardware. If you must use an older version of an operating system for a software, find an alternative on:
    http://guide.apple.com/
    http://www.versiontracker.com/macosx/
    http://www.macupdate.com/
    contact the vendor that is behind on their software development, or buy a used or refurbished Mac * which supports the operating system in question until you can upgrade all your software to be compatible with the operating system that ships with the new Mac. Sell the newer Mac unless you have need for software that will only run on it. Use my Identify your Mac FAQ* to determine the age of the machines you are looking for.
    - * Links to my pages may give me compensation.

  • Old System Disks

    Good evening.
    I woud like to fire up my old original 128k Mac that was updated to a Mac 512. Does anyone know where one can get a copy of the system disks, system 2 as well as MacPaint and MacWrite?
    My kids will never believe what the Mac was and where it has come from. Plus, I am a bit nostalgic and want to run it again.
    Appreciate any assitance.

  • How to configure local disk on OVM Server as storage space to create VMs

    Hello,
    We have installed OVM Server 3.1.1 on a machine that has 250 GB of Hard disk space [Single disk].
    While installing used an option - Remove all partitions and create a new default partition layout.
    Around 4GB has been used and remaining 246 GB is left as free space.
    From OVM Manager - the server is discovered but didn't discovered the physical disk [i.e. remaining 246 GB raw disk space].
    Can someone help me to understand how to use local disk as storage space for creating and running VM's.
    Thanks
    Srinivas

    You can? You've used every conceivable BIOS out there? You must really be full of yourself. There is absolutely no BIOS that I know of that gives this basic function. BIOSs do not "hard partition" anything. A "BIOS" is not made for such things. Do you even know what "BIOS" stands for?
    I wonder why there is some many wanting to do this and are having problems.... I mean if it is such a straight forward thing to do..... It must be down right "intuitive".
    You maybe speaking of a RAID "BIOS" but you obviously think you're not. Some motherboards have integrated RAID abilities. Intel RST comes to mind... BUT this isn't a feature of a MOTHERBOARD BIOS.
    I've got some $50,000 servers that will not break a single hard drive up into multiple logical drives..... Now, I haven't worked on a "Stinkpad" for many years. Don't want to. However, I have never seen one that would do what you're saying you're doing.
    You maybe trying to help.... but you're leading people down a wrong path.
    Its just as easy to run virtual box and use the virtual box templates for Oracle VM. In fact, its more practical if you want to run Oracle VM on a laptop for testing purposes than blowing everything away and attempting to setup different LUNS on a single hard drive.
    For your review...
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/configure-vm-templates-1656261.html
    Although it's more reliable to use a separate location (such as an NFS share) for a storage repository, you can use a local disk of your Oracle VM Server instead, thus taking advantage of the local storage option. Beware, though: Oracle VM Server 3.0 doesn't allow you to utilize the unused space on the physical disk it's installed on. For local storage, you'll need at least one more physical disk. In other words, you'll need a total of two disks at minimum on your Oracle VM Server host if you want to use local storage. In practice, though, local storage is not a primary use case. The major downside to this approach is that local storage, by definition, cannot be shared between different servers.

  • I want to migrate my system disk to a new, larger, SSD.

    I want to migrate my windows 7 system disk to a new, larger, SSD. My Photoshop CS5 is on the old system disk. Can I clone the old SSD to the new one and the just deactivate the CS5 install on the old SSD and activate it on the new, cloned, SSD?
    I'd like this to be as painless as possible so I was going to use Acronis. My recent experience with an apple product has convinced me that "brainless" is the new modality in software......
    Thanks,
    Grover

    I think Acronis will easily let you achieve your goal.
    Theoretically you shouldn't need to deactivate/reactivate, but I would do it anyway - just to be on the safe side.

  • Unable to repair degraded Virtual disks in Storage Spaces under Hyper-V 2012 R2 Core

    Hi all,
    I am finding myself in the following conundrum. I have a storage pool under Hyper-V Core, with 2 2TB Seagate drives. 
    One of the drives completely died (wouldn't spin up, tried it in a different box, still to no avail). I sent it in to Seagate for warranty replacement, got the new drive. Installed it and went through the notions of adding it to the pool and retiring the
    one that was with "Lost Communication" status.
    Tried to repair the virtual disks that are showing as "Unhealthy-Detached", quickly get 100% complete, but the repair didnt work.
    The storage pool is in degraded state.
    Looks like metadata is corrupted.
    Followed this post to upgrade Storage Spaces to latest version:
     https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/eead59e9-5e49-4bb6-8cbb-1dafddd9576b/unable-to-repair-degraded-virtual-disks-in-storage-spaces-2012r2?forum=winserverfiles
    Still, to no avail.
    Couple of questions:
    1) Is the data on the 3 virtual disks in state "Unhealthy: Detached" not recoverable?
    2) How can I get the storage pool back to "healthy"?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Restoring mail after a crash from original system disk

    I recently had a system disk crash.  It was not hugely terminal - I can still read the contents of the drive, I just can't boot from it. 
    I have installed a new copy of osX on my computer and so I have an installation running and can see the old system disk as a hard drive on the finder. 
    I would like to retrieve my old mail files.  Can I do this?
    Alas time machine had a disk failure shortly before my system disk crash, and so I cannot restore from that backup.  It never rains, but it pours. 

    I agree with Akuma. It is definitely not Toshiba related issue and you should try to check some Microsoft forum and try to find final answer.

  • Storage Space Server

    If the space of the windows storage space server is full, is it possible to setup another windows storage space server and combine the new one to original storage pool?

    Hi,
    We cannot combine one storage space to another storage space. If one storage pool is full, we could additional storage to expand the pool.

  • Minimum /u01 storage space

    If I was partitioning my Linux disk what is the minimum storage space I would need to allocate to my /u01 ??

    Minimum storage for WHAT? Oracle software? OS? Something else? There's no fix rule, it depends on the software/user data you want to install.
    WernerOracle Software...the default path for Oracle software is typically /u01/app so my question is how much space should be allocated to the /u01 partition to install the Oracle software and the grid infrastructure under /u01. I have observed that 10GB is sufficient however, it is not sufficient if you apply patches etc. to your oracle home/grid home. So I am thinking it should be 15GB however, was just wondering if there was any rules given about this.
