WD Sentinel DX4000 - How long does it typicially take to factory reset?

I'm factory resetting the WD Sentinel DX4000 and formatting its hard drives and its taking quite a while. The dialog box says that formating and reseting may take serveral minutes but it has already been a couple hours. How long does it typically take to reset? Also the progress bar is not filling up at all, is this normal?

Kinda depends on why you are doing the restore.  If the drives were in good shape it should not take that long.  If the drives neeed to initialize it may well take a couple of days.  You must leave the "host PC" connected during this time What brought on the need to do the restore?

    How long does it normally take to download a 2.8gb film to a new ipod touch ? - I'm using a wireless internet connection with a strong signal (speed 300mbps), but looks like it could take hours - that cant be right ?.  So far just 700mb have been downloaded in over an hour and a half.

    3 hours more.

    I can't use my $25 card because I havn't gotten the verification email, but I set up my account last night and I keep trying to resend the email, but I still havn't got anything yet. How long does it usually take to get it?

    What model iPhone you have is completely irrelevant. How long it will take to download iTunes is dependent on the speed of your Internet connection.

  • How long does it usually take to get added raw support (nex5n)?  i pretty much just use aperture 3 and love it but why does lightroom from adobe seem to get raw support faster than Apple's Aperture 3.  Also FCPX lacks v Adobe on 60p.

    How long does it usually take to get raw support for Aperture 3?  Is it slowed by Apple or camera company.  I only ask because Lightroom has support for nex5n raw but Aperture 3 does not.  Also direct import into Adobe premiere  and ability to edit in 60p.  However, support for 60 p not as easily worked with in FCPX.  I am just surprised Apple does not keep pace with these type of updates that Adobe does.  Don't get me wrong I love and use Apple software  when I can but I wish Apple was ahead of adobe in getting this support.  I guess more of a vent than a question.

    Yes, more of a vent.
    FWIW I agree. 
    Camera companies keep RAW specs confidential so firms like Apple and Adobe have to (sort of) reverse-engineer to develop RAW converters for each new camera. The good news is to my eyes/brain Apple usually does a slightly better job at it than Adobe does. The best RAW conversions (logically) come from the camera manufacturers.
    Apple gives up market share with slow support for new cameras. IMO really DUMB. It has at least been improving...

  • How long does it usually take to backup Adobe Premier projects?

    When you go into the Project Manager and back up the project, so that Premiere copies every file involved to a portable hard drive, along with the project file, so the project can be opened and edited on a different computer, how long does it take?
    I am currently backing up a project with over eight hours of footage in the work area so that I can continue working on it from another computer, and the backup does not seem to be progressing. I do not typically backup projects like this, I usually only save a new version of the project file, so I have no idea what to expect, and it seems to be taking a while.

    Usually till it is finished, give or take a few minutes.
    The question resembles: "How long does it usually take to travel from A to B?"
    The answer is: It depends. It depends on traffic jams on the route (what are the specs of your system), the transportation means (what kind of portable hard disk and the interface), the amount of luggage taken along (how much source material and what codec), does one take a rest while en route or stop for gas (what background processes are running), etc.

  • How long does it usually take to charge your card for an iTunes purchase?

    hi, i bought a song a few days ago and it still has not shown up on my debit card yet. How long does this usually take? Also the first time I purchased a song it didn't seem to download the same way the second one did and didn't show up at all in my purchases. Am I doing something wrong?

    It could be day or a week.

  • How long does mountain lion take to download?

    On average how long does mountain lion take to download from the app store?

    Always keep an eye on 'More like this', the column to the right of your initial post.    You will often find answers and direct leads to your questions there.
    In fact it relates to your ISP and the download speeds you have.   I believe it is 4GB in size.

  • How long does it normally take to convert from PDF to Excel files?

    How long does it normally take to convert from a PDF to Excel files?

    Sara-
    I did see your response.  Thanks.  The other thing that happened was after I enabled Adobe on my Dell it apparently knocked out my Mozilla.  Now I can't get internet connection unless I use Internet Explorer which I would prefer not to.  I'm going to visit our IT folks tomorrow and see if I can get some of this resolved.
    The PDF files I obtained that I am trying to transfer to Excel may be too complex because there is a great deal of extraneous text information in the basic document that lies outside of the tables I want to transfer.  I'm going to try and highlight the tables only and see if this works.
    Thanks for taking the time answering.
    Best,
    Henry

  • How long does it usually take to ship Iphone 4 for at&t?

    How long does it usually take to ship Iphone 4 for at&t?

    The US Apple Store says that AT&T-model iPhone 4 units are in stock, which usually means that they ship in a day or so, though shipping at this time of year may take longer. Other resellers may ship sooner or may take longer to ship. As RG said, you'd have to ask whoever you ordered, or intend to order, from to confirm exact shipping details.
    Regards.

  • How long does mountain lion take to download and where does it say how much it has left mine just says downloading ?

    how long does mountain lion take to download and where does it say how much it has left mine just says downloading ?

    It's totally dependent on your broadband speed.
    It took me about 45 minutes to download, but I have a reasonably fast connection.
    It will often say in the purchased pane of the Mac App Store how much longer it will take.

  • How long does it typically take to update new apple products?  I'm speaking in terms of software/firmware updates.  My new Apple TV and iPad 3 are glitchy, which is extremely frustrating considering I have the last gen of each sitting there working great.

    How long does it typically take to update new apple products?  I'm speaking in terms of software/firmware updates.  My new Apple TV and iPad 3 are glitchy, which is extremely frustrating considering I have the last gen of each sitting there working flawlessly.

    I appreciate the responses, however my initial post was too vague. I apologize and will explain.  The specific issues are the window closes occasionally when loading something large, that has ceased in the last day or two. My battery life is no where near the second gens, is that the extra hardware at work? I thought that had been accounted for? One of the frustrating, albeit humorous occurrences is when I placed the second and third gen within 1 foot of each other, turned off LTE, and streamed a video.  From every location the second gen out ran the new model on 3G signal, lol.  Not a huge deal since I have wi-fi or LTE pretty much everywhere I am, but disappointing none the less. 
    The new apple tv is great, except for the same thing everyone is posting about. HD iTunes library streaming taking overly extended load times. I don't expect it will take too long  for apple to address that issue. I'm new to apple, last 6 months, but they seem to have excellent support!  It is definetly highly rated.

    how long does it usually take to send a confirmation to my email to create a new apple ID?
    what should I do to cancel the registration, or fix it?

    Usually seconds.
    You can contact iTunes or go  here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40. You should be able to change the ID and then reverify it there.
