Upper Limit On HDD Capacity For QS G4 2001 Model W/PCI ATA133 Card?

Hey Everyone,
I currently have a Tempo ATA133 PCI card installed in my QuickSilver G4 2001 system (http://www.sonnettech.com/product/tempo_ata133.html). To address capacity issues, I'm considering adding a very large 500 GB, 7200 RPM ATA133 Hitatchi HDD (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822147008), which would connect to this PCI card.
Does anyone have reason to believe this configuration would cause issues, or if there's an upper limit on the amount of HDD space a PCI ATA133 card can support?
My feelings are that this configuration will be fine, but I'd like feedback before I proceed.

Good information bhgdfh! I'll have to reinstall OS 9 it seems to load the firmware, which is fine. If I end up buying the drive, I'll post the results! Meantime, I'm keeping the question unanswered in case anyone else has additional input.

More HDD Capacity for UCS C240

Dear All, I would like to see your advice
The UCS C240 I configure in CCW contain 24 Drive backplane,
my requirement will be 3 unit of 500G HDD (Raid 5) + 21 Unit of 1TB (RAID 5) = Total already 24 drive.
Since UCS C240 do not have more then 1TB SATA drive to choose in CCW, I am also unable to located any SFF Drive for 2TB or more.
In my situation, what if I would like to expand my disk drive capacity in the future?
(Actually I prefer to place 21 Unit of 2TB of more instead of 1TB, but the maximum capacity I can choose only 1TB)
Hope to have your advice, thanks

Hi Calvin ,
According the specification for a UCS C240 SFF the maximum capacity for a hard drive is 1 TB.
Actually there is no hard drive with a higher storage capacity than that on that UCS model.
Please check in here:

There is another model of the UCS C240 (High Density) which support hard drives for 3 TB:

Driver for Creative graphics blaster 3D CLGD5464 pci vga card

Can anyone tell me from where to find the driver for Creative graphics blaster 3D CLGD 5464 pci vga card. The driver in Solaris8 is for CLGD 5465 which is not compatible with my card. The solaris detects my card as CLGD 5465 but it doesent work. Can anyone tell me what should I do about it?
thanks, Kashif ([email protected])

If it is not supported by the Xserver under Solaris you may find you can get it to work by installing XFree86 (www.xfree86.org), there are compiled binaries for Solaris Intel that will make the transition easier (personally I found the 3.3.5 version works well). First check at www.xfree86.org if your videa-card IS supported under XFree though. There are some tweaks you need to add to get it all to work in the Solaris x86 FAQ. Since you probably have to do all of this in non-gui its not easy but can be done.

Maximum HDD capacity for Core Duo MacBook?

With both OS X and Windows installed, I'm running out of space with the 80GB HDD my Core Duo (not Core 2) MB came with and I'd like to replace the original drive with the 200GB drive that the new MacBook Core 2 Duo can be ordered configured with. But I was told by a person at the local (non-Apple) Mac store that the Core Duo MB, unlike the Core 2 Duo MB, has a storage limit of "120 or 160 GB, I think".
This does not make sense to me. One would think that the addressable storage limit is a function of the OS, the CPU, and the bus width, not affected by a relatively minor (?) difference in CPU details. He acknowledged that although the physical form factor of the 200GB drive is the same as that of the 80GB (after first thinking that the phrase "physical form factor" meant a functional limit, thus calling his expertise into serious question), there is some sort of functional limit. He cited the example of the G4 desktop, which can hold 2TB of storage as 4x500GB HDDs, but that if equipped with 4x750GB drives, still recognizes only 2TB. I think this limit is a result of the basic architecture of the CPU and buses. To further muddy the waters, he said there's a limit on the size of the internal HDD even though a much bigger outboard HDD can be recognized "because the internal drive is wired right into the computer". This sounds really bogus to me, but I'm not quite confident enough that I'm ready to order that 200GB internal SATA HDD from Other World.
Can I go ahead and order the 200GB and know the whole thing will be recognized?

According to the specs - the 200G should work. Like First Magnus said - 200G drives are fairly new - heck, 120G SATA drives are fairly new for laptops. Look around - you should find something. Newegg has them one (Toshiba) for $259.00. With them being new, they'll be tougher to find, so the net is probably you're best choice right now. I know the local stores around here don't carry them yet. Best of luck...

What is the max HDD capacity for Satellite L300-1EI?

Hi there,
I have A laptop Sattelite L300 - 1EI Nodel PSLB8E - 05W013H2.
Currently I have a Hard Disk with the capacity of 120G .
It has lots of bad sectors.
I wold like to know what is the maximum capacity I could replace it with.
Thanks

Thanks for answering.
My problem is that I bought already a HDD of 500GB.
The BIOS recognize the HDD.
When I try to install Windows 7 the computer reads the files from the CD into memory
and when it finishes, before it has the chance to start writing it switch itself off and re-boots.
Is that mean that the contoller is gone or the capacity of the HDD is too high for this Laptop.
Thanks

Maximum HDD capacity for HP G7035EA

I wish to replace a faulty HDD in a HP G7035EA laptop. What is the maximum capacity the BIOS will permit me to use ?

It is a SATA drive so there is not a BIOS limitation. Make sure you have ahci or "native SATA" enabled in the BIOS (if that option is even there). I know they now make at least a 640 gig standard 9.5 mm thick 2.5 inch wide laptop hard drive and you can definitely use one of those.

Max HDD Capacity for MS-7383(G31M2 V1)

Hi Team,
Can you please let me know the maximum hard disk capacity supported by MS-7383. As of now, it is running with 3SATA (250GB+250GB+320GB).
BIOS Version: V1.4 (A7383IMS V1.4 070309)
Thanks in advance.

It's been tested with P-ATA up to 750 GB & S-ATA up to 500 GB so as Stu said should be OK with even higher capacity drives than that.

Can I find the part numbers for the output drivers on the PCI-6534 Card?

We are planning to use an NI-6534 card to test very sensitive hardware. The DAQ will simulate the interface to which this particular piece of hardware will be connected.
Our concern is that there is some way that we can damage our hardware during test.
The best way to insure that this is not a concern would be to say that the DAQ interfaces to our hardware in the exact same way as our real interface. This of course is not likely, so we need to understand the differences. To do this I think we need to compare the I/O spec of the devices directly connected to our hardware under test on both the DAQ and our interface.
Of course we need to know the part number of the NI I/O output drivers.
The kind of data I think we are interested in is:
Voh, Vol, Ioh, Iol, and transition times...
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi goldbach,
The other specification you were looking for, slew rate, is typically between 2.75 and 4.5 ns depending on your load. The following knowledge base discusses briefly on this point.

Best Throughput for RAID - Internal SATA vs. PCI RAID Card

Hi, we're upgrading our old server, which has been on an upgraded G4. We put 3 SATA drives in it, connected to a Highpoint 1820a RAID card running RAID 5.
We're moving this to an older G5 1.6 GHz model (2003). It currently has 2 internal SATA drive bays, but I know can be expanded with an adapter kit. It also has just plain PCI slots (not PCI-X or PCIe).
So I'm wondering what would provide better performance (throughput I guess):
• Using the 2 internal bays with a software RAID 1?
• Putting our old Highpoint RAID card in the PCI slot and running RAID 1 or possibly RAID 5 (with another drive)?
I know the RAID card doesn't use the processor for RAID functions, but I think in a RAID 1 it's fairly minimal, correct? I'm mostly wondering if the older basic PCI slot would bet the bottleneck in a fast system compared to the onboard SATA controllers?
THANKS!

Well, we're most concerned with data security and reliability. We're not streaming video or anything else that would demand extreme throughput. The server is mostly serving files to 4-5 users. So I imagine the performance gains would only be noticed when opening/closing files off the server, correct?
And we already own the Highpoint card, which has 8 internal SATA ports, so we'll probably use this. It works fine on PCI bus. So we can run this with 4 drives in either two RAID 1s (boot & files); a RAID 5, or a RAID 10.
We'll probably stick with Western Digital or Seagate 'enterprise' SATA drives, such as the WD RE3.
So, do you think we would see much real-world difference between the different RAID options (RAID 1 software, RAID 1 hardware, RAID 5 hardware, RAID 10 hardware)?
Thanks!

Upper Limit in % for Tolerance Key AN in OMR6 transaction

Hi All,
I have to maintain upper limit in %age terms for Tolerance Key AN (Amount for item without order reference) in OMR6 (Tolerance Group for Invoice Verification) transaction in ECC 6.0 system. But the system is not allowing the same. When I open OMR6, it allows me to put the lower and upper limit in absolute and %age terms. But while saving, it shows only the option of upper limit in absolute terms and not even in %age terms. Request if anybody can help me in telling how to maintain the tolerance key AN for %age terms.
Anybody's help will be highly appreciated.

Request if anybody could help me with this issue.

Hi Jaydip,
Thanks for your response.
I have made the necessary settings earlier also. But when maintaining the changes for %age upper limit, the system doesnot work as required. When I maintain the upper limit in absolute terms, the system works perfectly.
Request you to please let me know if I can use any user exit to maintain the %age upper limit for tolerance verification.

Issue with Safety Upper limit for CALDAY Field for Generic Data Source

Hi,
I have given Upper limit as 1 for Calday field of one of the Generic Data Sources.
I have got a doubt here.If today's load got failed and I will rerun the load next day.So Will that new run captures all 2 days records.
Can any one advise me on this.
Regards,
K.Krishna.

Hi,
A one-day upper safety interval determines that an extraction run today, only fetches records up to yesterday (if the pointer has the day before yesterday date, the extraction comprises from the day before yesterday to yesterday). This is meant to avoid missing records that were about to be persisted in the database when the delta extraction is running but whose date was determined in memory before the delta started.
If pointer has today date value and you want to load data from today and yesterday, you should use a lower safety interval. Take into account that this could reload data previously extracted. Therefore, only InfoProviders with overwritting features (DataStores or InfoObject master data) should be used as targets of this extractions.
You can find further details at:

Qosmio X300-11W - HDD Capacity and RPM

Hi all,
Quick question.
What is max HDD capacity and RPM for x300-11w
I wish to change my hdd but don't want to make mistake.
Thanks

Virtually all modern SATA based laptops can take any size HDD. The previous limitation was LBA48, which was limited to 137GB. The next limit is something like 8 Exabytes.
The two things you need to be aware of is:
1) Rotational speed. 7200RPM drives will work in any laptop, but they get hotter than 5400RPM drives. The X300 is a large machine, so a 7200RPM drive will be fine. If it was a compact portable laptop such as a Portege, 7200RPM may not be a good idea, unless the drive is generally a cool running drive.
2) Physical size. Some HDD's can be 12mm or higher - especially if they are of large capacity. Measure the original drive, and ensure the new drive has the same height.

Supported Hdd capacity (CPU1.2GHz)

Hi,
I'm new to this forum so please excuse if I've posted this in the wrong place.
I need to replace the hdd on my iBook which currently has a 60Gb Hitachi travelstar Hdd (Hitachi IC25N060ATMR04-0).
I would like to replace this hdd with the largest suppported hdd I can, but have been unable to establish what is the upper limit for this specific iBook. Other posts I've seen suggest no limit, others suggest 120Gb.
Any body know what is the upper limit of the hdd, and would it help to update the firmware to increase the supported capacities?

Hi steeren,
Welcome to the Discussions.
The limit of the ATA-6 bus (144,000,000GB) is well over the size of any drive manufactured . Unless there's a limit placed on the bus by OS X I'd think the largest available would work.

What is the significance of Safety Upper Limit and Lower Limit

Hello Experts,
I was trying to create a generic datasouce in rso2 , while setting the delta specific field I have selected date field and I need to know the significance of other two input fields provided over there:
Safety Interval Upper Limit.
Safety Interval Lower Limit.
and check box Real Time Enable.
Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Vijay
Safety Interval Upper Limit of Delta Selection This field is used by DataSources that determine their delta generically using a repetitively-increasing field in the extract structure. The field contains the discrepancy between the current maximum when the delta or delta init extraction took place and the data that has actually been read. Leaving the value blank increases the risk that the system could not extract records arising during extraction. Example: A time stamp is used to determine the delta. The time stamp that was last read is 12:00:00. The next delta extraction begins at 12:30:00. In this case, the selection interval is 12:00:00 to 12:30:00. At the end of extraction, the pointer is set to 12:30:00. A record - for example, a document- is created at 12:25 but not saved until 12:35. It is not contained in the extracted data but, because of its time stamp, is not extracted the next time either. For this reason, the safety margin between read and transferred data must always be larger than the maximum length of time that it takes to create a record for this DataSource (with a time stamp delta), or it must display an interval that is sufficiently large (for determining delta using a serial number). Safety Interval Lower Limit This field contains the value taken from the highest value of the previous delta extraction to determine the lowest value of the time stamp for the next delta extraction. For example: A time stamp is used to determine a delta. The extracted data is master data: The system only transfers after-images that overwrite the status in the BW. Therefore, a record can be extracted into the BW for such data without any problems. Taking this into account, the current time stamp can always be used as the upper limit when extracting: The lower limit of the next extraction is not seamlessly joined to the upper limit of the last extraction. Instead, its value is the same as this upper limit minus a safety margin. This safety margin needs to be big enough to contain all values in the extraction which already had a time stamp when the last extraction was carried out but which were not read. Not surprisingly, records can be transferred twice. However, for the reasons above, this is unavoidable. these are used to determining the delta in a datasource: 1. Time stamp - The field is a DEC15 field which always contains the time stamp of the last change to a record in the local time format. 2. Calendar day - The field is a DATS8 field which always contains the day of the last change. 3. Numerical pointer - The field contains another numerical pointer that appears with each new record .
also dwload this How to Generic Delta doc https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/84bf4d68-0601-0010-13b5-b062adbb3e33
2.
You can determine the upper limit of the time. To do this, you specify a time period relative to the current date. The time unit for the time period can be specified in days, weeks, months, quarters, years, posting periods, or fiscal years.
The upper limit can also be rounded down to the end of a time period by selecting another, additional time unit, so that, for example, only complete months or years can be archived when a date field is selected as a selection characteristic for the time slice. The time slice defined in this way contains the complete time period before the upper limit calculated.
1. If delta field is Date (Record Create Date or change date), then use Upper Limit of 1 day.
This will load Delta in BW as of yesterday. Leave Lower limit blank.
2. If delta field is Time Stamp, then use Upper Limit of equal to 1800 Seconds (30 minutes).
This will load Delta in BW as of 30 minutes old. Leave Lower limit blank.
3. If delta field is a Numeric Pointer i.e. generated record # like in GLPCA table, then use
Lower Limit. Use count 10-100. Leave upper limit blank. If value 10 is used then last 10
records will be loaded again. If a record is created when load was running, those records
may get lost. To prevent this situation, lower limit can be used to backup the starting
sequence number. This may result in some records being processed more than once;
therefore, be sure this DataSources is only feeding an ODS Object
Hope this will help you
Thanks & Regards
