System freezes due to hard disk problems only on Linux (not windows)

Intro/context:
Recently i've bought (about 2 months) a new laptop, a Lenovo G50-70, which came with Windows 8.1. As i had no interest on that OS, i formatted the disk and installed only Arch Linux. During that time i experienced system freezes which i had no idea why they were happening. As time went by, i found disk errors on system logs related to hard drive. I searched those errors and almost everything i found was that my hard drive had problems, so i decided to use my warranty. But first, i installed the original OS back again. And after using it a couple of weeks, i didn't experiencie any problem with my hard drive (on Linux it was really frequent). Now i've installed Arch Linux back, along with original Windows 8.1, having dual boot. There is no disk problem when using Windows, but when on Arch, i have the same errors and problems i used to have. So i assume it may be related to kernel or some confniguration issue.
I also haven't noticed any relation between system freezes and system use. I mean, it can happen either under light or heavy use.
tl dr: system freezes randomly for some minutes when using linux due to hard drive problems. The problem doesn't happen on windows.
What i've done so far:
The first period i was on Arch, i run smart (long and short), fsck, and hdparm tests. And nothing (no errors). Searched for bad blocks, and nothing. When back on windows, i also run tests on hdd and found no problems, except some sector reallocation not-that-nice indicators. These problems occured at the end of the first arch installation period. But still i currently experience no problem on windows.
I've also tried setting libata: noncq, 3.0G, noacpi, noapic kernel parameters, and had no result.
Changed BIOS setting from AHCI to Legacy, and no result. Also updated BIOS and no result.
I found no firmware update for this hard drive.
So i don't know what other thing i can try. I want to emphasize that there is no problem, no freezing, when running Windows, so i don't think it's a hard drive issue.
Info:
Hard drive is a Toshiba 2.5" HDD MQ01ABD100 5400 rpm.
Some logs i've recollected all this time:

Something i'd noticed both the first time i was on arch and now i've reinstalled it, was that at first i didn't have this problem. I mean, when Arch was just installed. While i was installing and setting up everything.
Now, i'm not 100% sure about this, but i think problems began when using my current user. Disk is partitioned the following way:
$ lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 931,5G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 1000M 0 part
├─sda2 8:2 0 260M 0 part /boot
├─sda3 8:3 0 207,7G 0 part
├─sda4 8:4 0 25G 0 part
├─sda5 8:5 0 14,8G 0 part
├─sda6 8:6 0 80,5G 0 part /
├─sda8 8:8 0 599G 0 part /home
└─sda9 8:9 0 2G 0 part [SWAP]
So, i believe problems, for some reason, are related (and were related), both before and now, to the /home partition, /dev/sda8 in this ocassion.
Because of this, i booted into systemd rescue mode, like root, rw, and unmounted /home partition. Despite root-only limitations, i used the system for a couple of hours, started lxqt, browsed the web mainly, and experienced no problem at all.
Now i booted normally, with my regular user, and these problems are experienced just like before (and almost instantly, like 3 or 5 minutes after starting system use).
dmesg this time showed a some different log, though it's not the first time i see this. I just didn't saved that kind of log before.

System hangs randomly with hard disk problem

I got some problems with random system failures. After a couple of hours my system isn't usable anymore. Most programs freeze and if I try to start new programs, I get a I/O error message. System console writes many errors like this:
[ 3728.036223] systemd-journald[127]: Failed to write entry (18 items, 517 bytes), ignoring: Read-only file system
Then I have to reset my hardware. This problem occurs since two days. I made an update lately, but I can't remember if that problem occurred after that update.
What can cause such a problem? Where do I find relevant log files?

I just checked my SSD with smartctl. It displayed a warning with a link to: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Crucia … 14544.html. That sounds like my problem. I try to update my firmware.

MBP won't boot due to hard disk problem

I have a late 2008 which just started to have problems booting up.
The trouble started a week ago, when my MBP would shut down unexpectedly while I'm working(on battery power). When I tried to reboot from battery power it didn't work. However, it's not the issue of low battery level. I had plenty juice in the battery. So I attached to the mag safe power supply, it would boot up again.
On yesterday morning after another unexpected shut down, I plugged the mag saft back in and hope it would boot up again. Never again. It will alwasy stuck at the gray screen with a spinning circle. So I did quite a few standard checks such as booting from Snow Leopard install DVD, and run DiskUtility. It tells me my MBP Hard Drive has problems and can not be repaired. So I figure it's the HD problem. Now I just want to salvage some data off from that HD, get a new HD and start over again.
I tried to boot from DiskWarrior 4.2 DVD, it didn't boot up. It boot up fine with Snow Leopard DVD. So the optical drive works fine.
The HD is the Hitachi 7200rpm travelstar 250GB.
Any advice?

I totally agree with making a Super Duper copy of the drive before proceeding with anything else--that creates an exact copy of the problem drive so that everything is preserved. It would also create a duplicate that could be used to experiment with.
One way to do this is to get the replacement drive for the MBP and place it in an enclosure, maybe even using one of OWC's kits. The MBP's drive is already mounted on the Mac Pro's desktop, and the new drive in the enclosure can also be mounted on the MacPro's desktop and properly formatted using Disk Utility. Then Super Duper can be launched and used to copy the MBP's drive to the new drive. Once that's done, the OS could be reinstalled on the new drive and we would be able to see if that cured the password problem. Since Super Duper can make a bootable clone, we could see if the MBP would boot from it by plugging it into a MBP port and trying an option boot. If everything works, you can just install the new drive in the MBP.
Doing something like this does not touch the original MBP drive and its contents, so everything is preserved.
Just about any external drive would work for this purpose--it doesn't necessarily need to be the one that you intend to use as a replacement.
I agree that we don't really know for certain just what the fault is, but I think a Super Duper copy would be in order no matter how we go about doing the troubleshooting.

ZEN EXTRA EAX FREEZES"HARD DISK PROBLEM" AND WON'T RESCUE:HOW I FIX

Well nobody tried to help me so I got on the web.first if you try to paperclip reset and nothing,try this:hold the paperclip(you need both hands) and hold play/pause at the same time and disengage paperclip and you get rescue mode this is how I fixed it once,their are four options:clean disk,reboot and two more.CLEAN DISK AND RE-BOOT ONLY!Because the second option will clean out your library!If that does'nt work and if it says:"hard dri've problem" after trying several times you have to smack it on the palm of your hand and after three smacks it went back to normal!(By the way it fell off the countertop with the protecti've case and that's when this night time nitemare began,milk and cookie insomnia cure!). It just skipped,the hard dri've looks like a little record player and I guess it(like a needle on a record it jumped?)But now it works perfect again. I have "THREE WARRENTY",(TWO YEARS LEFT) but I would lose my 2,800 library if replaced repaired! A chance I did'nt want to take.PLMK if this works,SANSOO..........

A few weeks ago I dropped my Extra and had the same problem, it was now out of warranty so I figured I had a paperweight, so when I ran into this thread I figured I had nothing to lose., and gave it firm whacks on my palm, (the first one didn't work) To my surprise it powered back on, and now seems to work. I transferred new songs to it and it is now charging up again. I admit this has all occurred in the past hour so I don't know how permanent this is, but it does give me hope. I would like to emphasize though that this was a last ditch effort. I had tried going into the recovery mode and got a hard disk problem error so none of the regular options would work.

Snow Leopard and hard disk problems?

This may just be a coincidence but I and several colleagues have had problems with Macs over the past week.
a) My Macbook Pro lost the date/time and wi-fi settings. Next reboot wi-fi was still lost. Now seems OK again.
b) At times my 24" iMac is running slowly when nothing seems to be hogging resources (eg just copying a 3Gb file to an external hard disk). Time Machine also seems to be taking much longer to backup.
c) Hard disk failed on a Macbook Pro of a colleague
d) iMac 27" seems to be having severe hard disk problems for another colleague - Applecare will be visiting after trying numerous fixes over the phone.
On my machines I have run the Cocktail suite (permissions, scripts and caches) Disk Utility Repair and Techtools Deluxe (no reported problems) but the iMac problems seem to creep back.
It is like a disk caching process (or Spotlight?) is not cleaning up properly and is clagging up the system. Or maybe a hard disk is close to failure but the problem is not severe enough to show up in diagnostics? In any case I am diligent about backing up at the moment!

Or maybe a hard disk is close to failure but the problem is not severe enough to show up in diagnostics?

Recurring iMac G5 Hard Disk problem and worthless AppleCare

Hello all! I have a recurring iMac G5 2Ghz (20-inch) Hard Disk problem.
I bought my parents, aged 52 and 55, an iMac last summer. Hoping this would be their solution to a hassle free and easy computer environment, since I would leave for China for about 1 year. But last month the hard drisk crashed and could not be fixed.
At first the start up speed slowed down, then the start up process would continue infinitely, then the computer just booted into a screen with a question mark.
I have a AppleCare Protection Plan (APP) and so I called the Help Desk and they put me in touch with a Service Center (Sittard, the Netherlands). Now I thought, since I live within the proper range of at least 3 service centers (Heerlen, the Netherlands), I could get on-site support (as stated in APP), unfortunately for unknown reasons, my parents had to drag the 20 inch monster to the service center.
Normally the repair should take 2 days, but instead it took 10 working days. My dad naturally asked, if they could restore the data on the disk. This was only possible if we paid about 2000 euro. So, no deal!
After picking the iMac up again, the computer booted into the Mac OS installation. This again surprised me, since according to the APP they should at least put some effort into restoring the applications. Not even iLife was pre-installed, which was of course on the computer when we bought it. Next to that the Service Center's Mac OS installation disc was still in the drive; how careless!
They were quite sad about the lost data, but accepted it, as we all know that these things can happen to electronics. BUT today, the same problem recurred! First the start up process slowed down and now (again) it tries to start up infinitely.
The hard disk is brand new (1 month), no strange programs and no abnormal use. According to the diagnostic tools the file structure is damaged, but it seems to keep getting worse. The Apple Help Desk guy was even surprised this happened to a brand new disk and installation. He recommended reinstalling the system.
But, I'm not happy with this solution! A hard disk breaking down, is one thing. But the same problem recurring 1 month later made a couple of alarm bells go off. I'm hoping Apple will consider replacing this machine from **** with a brand new iMac. Since my parents are scared ********, that whatever document they type today might disappear again tomorrow. This is not a comfortable computing experience.
By the way: the computer has only basic software: Microsoft Office, Skype and iLife and my parents only use those programs, surf the net and send email.
Any of you had a similar bad experience with the iMac's hard disk, AppleCare or any of Apple's Service Centers? Or does anyone know how to reach Apple by email?
iMac 20 G5 2Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I had a similar problem with my 20" 2Ghz iMac.
After replacing the HD and the next 'going bad' the tech realized there was a different problem.
After discussing it, and the distance to an authorized repairer he offered on-site repair.
After a lengthy parts delay I was offered an upgrade to a iSight iMac.
The tech narrowed my problem down to a faulty logic board before offering a replacement. He could have been wrong but it seemed logical with all of the same symptoms.
Press your AppleCare to replace this computer. They are going to try and repair but insist if this fix doesn't work you want a new iMac.
I hope everything works out for you.
Edit: There is a great program that Apple techs recommend called DiskWarrior. It did not fix my problem but it allowed me to get my most important info off of the computer before it went to computer heaven. Might not work for all but it works well for me as I still use it today.

Help needed Hard disk Problem

I am not very computer Savoy!. But every time I turn my laptop on it keeps freezing up on me and I get a massage that says I am having a Hard Disk Problem and that I should back up all my files before the computer crashes. And I would like to what I should do to fix this? I thought that I could reload my operating system but my computer did not come with that disk and I can't seem to find it here on this web site. Any idea's?

Without knowing specifically which model you have it's difficult to tell for sure, but most Toshiba's made in the past few years come with a Recovery Partition. You can invoke the Recovery Process by holding down the 0 (zero) key while turning the computer on and holding it down until the Recovery Process starts. You can also create a set of Recover Disks from the Recovery partiton by going to "Start - All Programs - Toshiba - Recovery - Recovery Disk Creator".
As for the error message about Hard Disk Problem, that could mean that the hard drive is starting to malfuncion and will soon stop functioning at all. You need to determince what brand of hard drive your's is, go to that companies support site, download their Diagnostic Program, install it, and run the most exhaustive test to determine if it is failing or not.
And please backup you important data as soon as humanly possible as there is a good chance you will lose it forever.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

MBA hard disk problems

I appear to be having hard disk problems and would appreciate any suggestions as to how to determine what the cause might be.
It began when the MBA late 2008 with 10.6.6 would not startup, just an endless cog wheel. Using the installation disk I found that the disk repair utility identified that the MBA hard disk was corrupted and the repair utility couldn't repair it.
I deleted the contents of the MBA disk verified the disk and reinstalled the system software and all my other programmes and files.
(This took about a day as I did not have a backup of the MBA but I did have the files and programmes on other disks etc. (Never again - I bought an external hard disk so that I could have a copy of the installation disc on it and also a backup of the MBA and all the system software updates.)
All has been well for a couple of weeks until today when the MBA would not start. For the first time in my life I saw a message covering most of the screen saying "Will not start up - turn the computer off by holding down the power button until it turns off and then restart the computer" or something similar.
Needless to say the computer refused to restart and again after looking at the MBA disk with the disk utility it required repair and again the repair utility said it could not complete the repair.
Wiped the MBA disk again and reinstalled and restored the programmes and files. (so much easier with the install image and backup on an external hard disk and Time Machine is tremendous).
So the MBA appears to be back to normal.
But will it stop again? It the hard disk flawed or fundamentally corrupted?
I have verified the hard disk with the apple disk utility and also with onyx. Both say it appears to be ok.
Any suggestions as to how to work out what if anything is going wrong would be much appreciated.

When I said verified I meant that I ran the verify and repair command in the apple disk utility and also ran both the smart status in onyx and additionally the verification command in onyx.
Just to clarify the second occasion that the MBA would not startup falls under the category of “You need to restart your computer” which indicates a indicates a “kernel panic”.

Windows has detected a hard disk problem

I just got a warning from windows that I have a hard disk problem then Toshiba Utility notifies me with the following:
Disk0
Your HDD has the SMART Predict Failure function which monitors the HDD operating status. Your HDD is experiencing a problem and SMART monitoring software predicts that the HDD will fail. Toshiba strongly recommends you create a back-up for your HDD data. Then contact an authorized service provider in order to check your drive and purchase a new replacement drive if necessary.
I have never had problems with a hard disk, all I know is that I should get a backup drive as soon as possible. After I back up my files and everything....what is the next step? Take it to a repair man to fix, get a new harddrive, contact about warranty, what exactly do you do with this kind of situation? Is it fixable?
System Details:
Toshiba Satellite L675D-S7052
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit

If you're computer is under warranty, you should contact customer support at (800) 457-7777. The hard drive will need to be replaced.

Window detected a hard disk Problem on my Satellite L505-S5988

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5988 with window 7 Home Premium 09 Service pack 1. It is 2+ years old and my hard drive is Toshiba MK3263GSX 287GB. Lately, I got a window warning message as “ Windows detected a hard disk Problem. Back up your files immediately to prevent information loss, and then contact the computer manufacturer to determine if you need to repair or place the disk….. The following hard disks are reporting failure: Disk Name: TOSHIBA MK3263GSX Volume: C:\ “.
Since then, I have imaged my laptop and run malware/spyware softwares, and it looks like my computer is clean. The laptop device manager said my hard drive is working properly. However the warning keeps pops up. I opened Administrative Event Viewer and found the below warning:
“Log Name: System, Source: Disk, Event ID: 52.
The driver has detected that device \Device\Harddisk0\DR0 has predicted that it will fail. Immediately back up your data and replace your hard disk drive. A failure may be imminent.”

D000000000000000000000000
Besides this warning, there are also other errors and warnings back to years ago, such as AFS failed to load, print service… Despite all these errors and warnings, my laptop seems to be running OK. I was not prevented from doing anything that I usually do.
Questions:
Is there a tool I can run to verify that my hard drive is truly bad?
Can any tool further identify where?
Can it be repaired? Reformat? Or I have to replace with a new one?
What options I have if I have to replace with a new one?
What is average cost of it?
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Windows 7 on MacBook Pro Retina late 2013. Showing popup window as "Windows detected a hard disk problem"

I have installed Windows 7 64 bit version in my MacBook Pro Retina(13") late 2013 model . It was working fine from last 8 months but recently popup window showing as "Windows detected a hard disk problem" once login. Please check the following image.
I have contacted Apple Support team. They have tested the hard disk while booting from Mac OS and all the reports showing as hard disk is fine. Then I thought might be it was some virus and removed the Bootcamp partition and re-installed Windows 7 Operating System. But once updated Windows 7 with latest updates. This message showing again.
Would you please help me out to fix this issue. Anybody faced similar issue?

No I think that all drive are really on failure
I've boot with an ubuntu livecd and smartmontools see also the failure.

When I use the Mac disk tools from the startup menu, it see also the problem.
Now the big question is : Why I've this type of issue with 2 MBA and 1 Macbook pro 15".
Their configurations are the same : windows 7 with truecrypt.
Maybe Windows drastically reduces the lifetime of the Apple SSD drive.
The 3 Mac are used for less than 6 month !!!!

Hello srhk. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
I understand the hard disk is experiencing issues. Error 301 indicates the hard disk possesses a hardware defect. I would contact HP Phone Support for assistance, or purchase an equivalent hard disk.
If you choose to contact HP, their options will be based on the warranty status of the computer. If you do not have this information, you can locate it at this website: http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/wc/home?ac.admitted=1384280905804.876444892.199480...
You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Can any body help me regarding this?

i had purchased it last year through loan and this year i faced hard disk problem not even it is 1.6 yrs.Also before that i had faced many plm like cannot install XP ,cannot install real player, VLC player.If this system has so much compatible ploblem why ur company is making such type of things.i made a great mistake on purchasing ur product.I will never suggest any body to purchase HP product.Purchasing hp products means weastage of money and time also taking unnecessary headach.

"Ghost" System folder on internal hard disk.

I have a mid-2010 iMac with a 120 SSD (used for the operating system, primary applications and documents) and a 1 TB internal hard disk for seldom-used applications, documents and movies. Although everything works reasonably well, the Hard Disk keeps creating a System folder on the internal Hard Disk with a Library folder, which in turn holds some Caches. If I delete this System folder on the Hard Disk by way of Cocktail, the computer simply creates it again. Is this normal?

Hey Allan...
I assure you, these audio related cards are very much
completely real and assuredly non-mythical!
They are:
A MOTU PCI-424 card, which is a proprietary card for running multitrack MOTU audio interfaces.
A Universal Audio UAD-1 card, which is a piggy-backing DSP card that runs audio plug-ins.
This is the main computer in a recording studio that I
run. My initial plan was to have two separate internal
drives that are identical, so that if one drive were to
die, I could immediately reboot from the other system
and have almost no down time.
I was asking about this on an audio related board and
someone made the point that having multiple instances
of system software might be causing a problem.
As a workaround, I think instead I will load an extra
internal SATA drive and just keep it in a box, waiting
where I can just pop it in if the system drive fails.
I've tried everything and the PCI cards don't show up
under system "A", if the drive with system "B" is also
mounted. I don't know if there's any tricky workaround
to this... mounting drives in a different order maybe?
I'm not heavily tech-savvy, so I think the easiest option
is just having a separate replacement drive rather than
using one of the drives that is always mounted.
Let me know if you think of anything though...
Best,
Fred

Creative Zen Player Hard Disk Problem!

There's a problem with my Zen player.
I was listening to music when suddenly it hanged and became very warm.
After recharging the battery, the zen player did not load properly and instead listed out 4 options for me to choose:
Clean Up
Format All
Reload Firmware
Reboot
Rebooting doesnt help at all.
Clean up refuses to work and nothing happens when I press yes.
Format All gives me an error. Says that it is a harddisk error.
Reloading Firmware is impossible because Creative MediaSource Organizer cannot detect my Zen player when I plug in onto the computer. It also says that there is a harddisk error.
Is there anything I can do? Can I get a refund? I hope this will not happen again because my Zen player is only around 2~3 months old and this shows that Creative Zen players have poor hardware. I hope I need not retract my praises of Creative's Zen player.Message Edited by lijuliju on -7-2005 0:59 PM

Your faulty player does not equate to Creative having poor hardware. Be realistic.
Hard disk problem error not surprisingly indicates there is a problem with the hard disk, so contact support to get a replacement (click the link Support > Downloads on this page).

System freezes due to hard disk problems only on Linux (not windows)
