What is an ATA device

What is an ATA device I really need to know can you help me

It is a term related to the type of disk drive interface. For a MacBook Pro, however, you need a SATA (Serial ATA) notebook drive. You can find them at OWC.

Error while scanning for Serial-ATA devices.

There was an error while scanning for Serial-ATA devices. I'm not sure how to trouble shoot this. I believe a secondary drive in bay 2 died.

I also have just began to hit this issue.
I have 4 2T enterprise class WD drives in a raid 1+0 (or was it 0+1) config.
Device Model: WDC WD2002FYPS-01U1B1
One disk (disk0 in bay 2) keeps disappearing. Completely. /dev/disk0 and /dev/rdisk0 vanish.
If I look at "about this mac" / "More Info" / "Serial-ATA" I get the "error while scanning ...".
If I reboot, the offending disc comes back and the raid volumes start rebuilding.
The SMART status is (reported to be) fine.
I use the 'smartmon' tools and look at the extended SMART status and the values of the counters all looks the same as the other drives. I can run an extended offline test, which takes forever to execute. disk 1 and 3 eventually finish with success (it writes this status into a SMART log area on the disc).
Disk 2 and 0 take longer. I image this is because 2 is being read to resilver 0. Currently, I am running with disk0 absent again, and disk 2s test did not complete. It claims it was aborted by the host, so I imagine the one on disk0 will claim the same after I reboot.
My system is under extended AppleCare until 16 Jan 2011, so if I can determine that this is a disc controller error, I can get it fixed. The drives have a 5 year warrantee, and are less than 1yr old, so they are covered. I just need to figure out what the issue is.
I will now reboot and recover disk0 and see if perhaps there is anything recorded in the SMART log.
There is nothing in kernel.log specific to disk0. I include the log extract here for posterity. The "speed" volume is not raid 0+1, just striped, which is why it gets aborted.

Slimtype DVD A DS8A1H ATA Device is recognized as CD Drive

About a week or two ago,my DVD drive , a Slimtype DVD A DS8A1H ATA Device, began to display itself as a CD Drive even though it is a DVD Drive. I have already tried the sfc/scannow command, uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it, removing the higher and lower filters in the registry editor, and I still have the same problem. I have checked the HP Support and Drivers website for any updates, but i have found none. Are there any solutions to this problem? Or ,at the least, may I get a website that has an updated driver for my DVD Drive?
Thank You in advance

There is no separate driver apart from the driver built into Windows....does the drive function correctly and the only problem is the identification in device manager? What happens if you put in say a Movie DVD or a DVD-RW disk blank?

Pc freezes after setting on chip ata device to raid mode

Hi, I have an msi x58a-gd65 MB. I built this pc myself, but have a limited knowledge when it comes to figuring out problems. I have windows 7 installed and everything works on a single hdd. I now however want to set up a raid 1 hdd config. the MB supports raid 0/1/5/10.
So I followed the instructions msi provides in a youtube video, but when the pc restarts it freezes. I cant even access the bios so I have to clear the cmos.
The sequence I follow is as follows (I have tried the following with 2 same size hdd's attached and not attached (customer service told me to try setting it to raid with no hdd attached))
1)enter bios
2)check the boot sequence (hdd's are detected, when attached)
3)enter on-chip ATA Devices
4)Set raid mode to raid
5)save and exit
at this point, the pc restarts and after the msi logo appears, it freezes.
I had two internal pci cards attached, a usb 3.0 and an ide connector.
I have tried setting the MB to raid with the pci cards attached and not attached, same problem exists.
I have the latest version of bios installed, I downloaded from live update.
I was able to enter the raid utility before when I had considered a raid option but I didnt proceed with it. I had an older version of bios at that time.
I would appreciate any help please.

Quote from: xmad on 26-February-13, 01:56:13
Attached is version M46(Beta)
They apparently had some troubles with the version of the raid rom on the full release and this version has version 8.5.0.1030
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
Option 2 and point it directly at the bios file then to your fat32 formatted usb stick.
When the tool is complete, boot to the usb and follow the directions.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks
Ok, here's what has happened so far,
I have put the new bios,m46,on a USB. When I enter the bios, I can save the old bios on the USB and I can also boot the new bios,m46,but when I try to update the bios,I can't find the bios file.
When I just boot the m46 bios I do get the raid utility option so that part seems to be sorted, now I just need to find a way to update the bios.
Thanks for your help so far Xmad

Satellite C655-S5044 won't recognize TSST CDDVDW TS-L633C ATA device after windows 7 update

Laptop: Toshiba Satellite C655-S5044; Windows 7 64-bit
DVD Drive - TSST CDDVDW TS-L633C ATA Device
After an automatic Windows update, the CD/DVD drive is no longer recognized.
Running troubleshoot on the PC yields:
Problem detected with TSST CDDVDW TS-L633C ATA Device Driver has been disabled
Checking for new drivers says I have the latest.
I tried running a microsoft fixit for DVD/CD drives - no problem found
I tried deinstalling the driver, then rebooting. This yields a message:
Device Driver was not successfully installed please consult with your device manufacturer.
I tried the TSST website for Toshiba and that rerouted me here.
Searching the forums I have seen similar issues with other hardware/OS combinations but not exactly the same.
Additional Info from the device manager:
Device Type: DVD/CD-ROM Drive
Manufacturer: (Standard CD-ROM drives)
Location: Location 0 (Channel 1, target 0, Lun 0)
I suspect that I have multiple device drivers on the computer for this device and the OS is installing one that doesn't work.
How can I get the correct current driver and install it?
Does anyone recognize this problem and have a fix?
Thanks.

Satellite C655-S5044
I didn't find that model anywhere.
Device Driver was not successfully installed please consult with your device manufacturer.
The driver is native to Windows. Sounds to me like a hardware malfunction.
After an automatic Windows update,..
In a Microsoft forum, they would tell you to do a System Restore to before the Windows Update. If that fixed the problem, then apply the updates one at a time to identify the culprit.

What are the best devices to use in my car to listen to music on my 3rd gen iPod Nano?

What are the best devices on the market today to use in my car to listen to music on my 3rd Gen iPod nano? I currently use the Monster device that plugs into the electrical adapter (former cigarrette lighter!) in the car. It's a pain in the neck to manually search for unused FM stations on a long trip. I want something that automatically searches for unsused FM stations or, better yet, that will allow me to somehow connect the iPod into the CD player or directly to the radio itself. I have a 2004 Toyota Highlander.
Any suggestions for quality after-market products from the Forum?

If you have files with the .m4v or .m4a extension its better to change them to .mp4. The M4 extensions will sometimes download in the browser instead of playing.
A usefull free app for file conversion is Miro...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Movie-Video/Easy-Movie-Player.html
It can quickly convert to all the formats you need to load for html5 playback: MP4, OGG, WebM
If you include these three, fallback to flash will only be required for Internet Explorer V 8 and older. V 9 is supposed to support html5 but I haven't actually seen any proof of this.
Players like flowplayer and JWLongtail are convenient because the control bar icon be customized. This lets you get away from the nasty looking QT control bar.

What does "Upgrade Your Device" mean for a VZW customer?

I had a LG Octane and "upgraded" to LG Cosmos at the end of my contract. The Octane does not have a camcorder but the Cosmos did. To me this was a "downgrade." I learned of this "downgrade" after I had the "upgraded" a few weeks. I believe Verizon's use of the term "Upgrade Your Device" is deceptive and a false promise. Verizon representatives refuse to recognize this "upgrade" as a "downgrade." I am stuck with a downgraded phone for more than another year before I can upgrade again without paying the full cost of a phone! So what does "Upgrade Your Device" mean when used on the Webpage of your Verizon Account?

The upgrade is that your new phone has a camcorder. Your old phone did not.
The word upgrade means to me getting a new phone that has features that my old phone didn't have and that i will actually use.

Friends, I want to know what is the Bluetooth device in the HP Touch Smart TX2-1275 DX ? Im asking the manufacturer brand and model number such as Ralink xxx, Broadcom xxx and so on for this laptop not the Software Support for HP Integrated Module with Bluetooth Wireless Technology for Microsoft Windows Vista driver. If anyone knows, can you please provide me the link to download it? My friend reformatted it without taking note of the original device name in the device manager. I appreciate your help friends, Thanks You.

Check specification of your model here.

You may buy usb micro Bluetooth adapter.

What kind of USB devices?

Hi, folks.
What kind of USB devices can I plug to TC? Only HDDs and printers?
If I plug USB speakers, will my Mac stream sound (something like AirTunes in AirPort Express)?
Can I sync my iPhone if I hook my dock to TC?
Any other ideas I could use TC USB port for?
Thanks.

I suspect you mean that you are getting the iTunes error message that the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started, in which case you need to follow the steps show in item #4 at the bottom of this article to restart it: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

Is there now a system call to send pass-through commands to ATA devices?

I want to send pass-through ATA commands to SATA/ATA devices on intel-based solaris. From the beginning the USCSICMD ioctl has worked just fine on SCSI/SAS/FC targets on intel & sparc-based solaris, but the mechanism to send pass-through commands to ATA devices has always been undocumented, closed, unavailable, whatever.
Is there now a way to do this w/o writing a custom device driver? Does anybody have an example chunk of code that does something simple like send the ATA IDENTIFY command to a disk drive? I know I can use SATL to encapsulate commands to SATA disks using certain SAS controllers, but I really need a way that will work with devices that are plugged into a standard SATA port on a motherboard.
Thanks

Opticarc BD ROM BC-5500S ATA Device Help

I have a laptop with an Opticarc BD ROM bc-5500s ata device. The problem is the drive fails to recognizes inserted disks with data. I've contacted HP and they provided the following trouble shooting solutions.
1.      Power drain.
2.      Check for the drive in the BIOS.
3.      Reseat the optical drive.
4.      Check for the presence of the optical drive in Device Manager.
5.      Uninstall and reinstall drivers in Device Manager.
6.      Delete upper and lower filters from the windows registry
The drive recognizes that a disk has been inserted but it recognizes the disk as blank even when there is data on the disk. (It tries to format the disk as a new disk.)
The trouble shooting solutions provided have not rectified the problem. The only way to get the drive to recognize a disk is to delete the driver in the Device Manager, Scan for New Hardware and Reinstall; sometimes with a reboot and sometimes not. I guess this is okay as a work around solution but it is a pain to delete and reinstall the drive every time I want to use it.
If anyone has a more permanent fix, the help would be greatly appreciated as this is extremely frustrating considering it's a relatively new system.

Im also still waiting for a firmware update for this device. My Dv7 wont play any blu-ray since may 09 and I was quite shure that a software update would sort this thing out. In September my laptop's warranty expired and HP says they cant help me anymore.
I notice that there are lots of people out there having the same issues with this hardware. Just for the record, my symptoms are I put in a Blu-ray disc and the drive spins up and down repeatedly like it's trying to read, but nothing ever happens on the screen. The OS never realizes there is a BD in the drive.
It used to play some blu-rays but one day just stopped working. When I go into my computer to view the drives, and have a blu ray disk in (tried this with 4 blu rays) it thinks there is no disk at all in the drive. I've tried updating firmware, updating quickplay, downloading powerdvd 9, checked drivers in device manager and pretty much anything else I can think of. So now Im at the point where I think the drive might be bad but dont really want to fork out the money for a new one if I dont really have to.
