HP uses different brands to fit the need for the SATA hard disk, so there is no specific brand that I can state. Why don't you use the hard disk test that is present in the BIOS?

  • What is the best USB powered portable 1TB hard drive for a macbook pro that allows Time machine to work, windows (thru Parallels software) and mac storage and is available in Australia?

    What is the best USB powered portable 1TB hard drive for a macbook pro that allows Time machine to work, windows (thru Parallels software) and mac storage and is available in Australia?

    I agree with teh OWC sggestion above, but why must it be USB powered? I find that far more unreliable, and the low power devices slow.
    I'd frankly get a good external enclosure and buy a bare drive.  But the OWC stuff is quite good - vastly better than some of the majors (WD being aprime example of stuff that's boderline quality and often not compatible)

  • What is the lifespan of a Macbook Notebook Hard Drive, and is it a good idea to replace them more then once?

    In specific, I own a 2007 Macbook Notebook, and it is an Intel Core 2 Duo MB21.00A5.B07. Last year, it became necessary to replace the hard drive, and was informed that the reason for the replacement was that the hard drive had reached the end of its lifespan.
    My question is how long do Macbook notebook hard drives typically last? This also is in the context of frequent use of the notebook.
    Additionally, is it a good idea to replace the hard drive more then once, or will the hard ware on the notebook, after I'm assuming about six or so years, be too out of date to accommodate a second or third hard drive replacement?
    Also, since the replacement was still covered under an applecare plan (it's expired now), the general cost of replacing a Macbook notebook hard drive is not known? What is the cost generally expected of a hard drive replacement? This is in relation to repairs conducted at an applestore location (as opposed to a third party repair center).

    Also, this means that, the settings of a system like Snow Leopard, in addition to all other personal settings from a current hard drive, can be copied to and from an external hard drive?
    Your entire system can be copied to an external HD in bootable form. It's generally referred to as cloning, and there are a number of applications available to assist in the task.
    SuperDuper
    CarbonCopyCloner
    LaCie Silverkeeper
    To name but three.
    Furthermore, once cloned, should you have to replace the internal drive, it's easy to boot from the external and clone the system back to the internal.

    If so, do you know where one can purchase an external hard drive and a replacement hard drive?
    As I don't live in the US, it's difficult for me to reccommend retailers, but any computer store (including Apple) can supply external HDs. Be aware that not all HDs from some manufacturers will play well with Macs; Western Digital I believe needs careful selection of the correct model. There are plenty of contributors who can no doubt help on that front. Personally I use LaCie and Iomega. Note that these are purpose built externals and come with their own enclosure and all cables reqd.
    One thing you will need to do with most of them is to use Disk Utility to partiton them correctly (GUID system for Intel Macs) and set the file system to Mac Extended (journaled) before cloning.

    There is one last question. Say I've replaced the hard drive on the same computer for nine years or so. Despite the hard drive being new, would the hardware of the computer be too out of date to accept an up to date replacement hard drive?
    The hardware of the computer dictates what sort of internal drive you buy; earlier models used IDE interfaces, current models use SATA and these are not interchangable. However System Profiler will tell you what sort you have. It's still possible to buy compatible HDs for the early iMacs, c. 1998/99 so there's no reason to believe your model will suddenly become defunct.

  • I want to create a movie in iMovie 10 and watch in on Apple TV. What is the best work flow to save hard drive space?

    I want to create a movie in iMovie 10 and watch in on Apple TV. What is the best work flow to save hard drive space?

    Jim,
    Thanks for the advice. I have avoided iMovie Theater because that would soon use all of my free iCloud allowance (although that could be an option). I have been sharing to iTunes at 720p thinking that my picture using Apple TV would be better than Large. I see now that I could use about 30% less hard drive space by using Large instead. Do you think I will experience an annoying difference in picture quality?

  • What is the best way to upgrade a hard drive on my macbook?

    How do I get the information on my current internal hard-drive onto another internal hard-drive?
    Thanks in advance for any and all information.

    You can use SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner to accomplish that.
    You'd need an external disk or mount your old internal in an enclosure.

  • What are the things required to upgrade internal hard drive For Macbook Pro mid 2012 13 inch?

    Hi,
    I want to upgrade my internal drive but I don't know how to do that. I have already purchased a WD 1TB internal hard drive. However, I contacted apple support and they said if I try to upgrade the hdd myself, then the warranty of the macbook would be void. I am from India . I currently have a Macbook Pro mid 2012,13 inch.
    Also, do i need to download a setup of Yosemite before changing the hdd?
    Please guide me
    Thanks and Regards
    Abhineet Arora

    You know what the impact will be on the warranty terms.  If you want to install it yourself, look at this video:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_13_unibody_mid12_hd/
    It is not very difficult.  You will need a #00 Phillips and a #6 Torx drivers.
    Ciao.

  • What is the best way to wipe my hard drive for a clean install?

    I've been having a lot of insane issues with my iMac like my Dock icons not staying, email messages showing in Mail but when I click on them I can't see any text, Spotlight finding emails and files that don't show on my hard drive, etc.
    I've decided that I just want to wipe the whole thing clean and start from scratch. What is the best way that I can do this to make sure that absolutely no data is left on the drive and I am totally starting from scratch?

    Hi David Hamilton1;
    I guess that all depends on how critical your data is in relation to how much time you want to spend doing the erasure. Those higher level erasure options can take a significant amount of time to complete. Personally I don't have anything on my Mac that I think is worth more time then a simple erasure even if that does leave it some what recoverable. To me it seems some people are going overboard on this issue.

  • What's the largest capacity bus-powered external hard drive?

    I realize that this isn't a Mac specific question, but I'd really like a recommendation. What's the largest capacity bus-powered (preferably USB) external hard drive available. My new MBP has a 500GB drive so I would need something with probably 640GB or bigger. Problem is I can't find anything over 500GB that's bus-powered. Everything I've found requires an external power supply which is what I'm trying to avoid. If anyone has a recommendation, please share it.

    Have a search on the web for USA retailers who supply empty enclosures and drives separately. The enclosure is the physical case and the bits of circuitry and the physical ports. Tell them what you want and ask him what drives and enclosures he has to suit your purpose and if he can fit the two together for you. I have such a supplier but am in UK.
    Does it have to be a USB bus? Firewire is better and gives more power. One way I power a 360GB pocket drive is to feed from TWO USB ports on the computer into one input port on the drive(now in the enclosure) you should be able to buy a sort of "Y" shaped cable with two full size flat USB connectors at one end and one single connector at the drive end. The drive end often will be a mini usb port. What you want will depend upon the size of the input into the drive.

  • What is the best way to manage my hard drive?

    Background - I have a 13" MacBook Pro with 250GB hard drive and recently I have had to delete or migrate files to external HDs to gain space. I spent last night doing just that. I also have two EHDs - a 2TB My Passport and a 3TB Seagate GoFlex Home WiFi capable. I do my backups to the SeaGate using Time Machine. My issue is that I currently only have about 38 GB available on the hard drive after making the moves last night.
    I'll call this what it is - an ugly baby. In order to make room, I moved files to one or both EHDs so now I have multiple copies of my stuff but no organization. So a couple of questions...
    1. How can I effectively and efficiently get my internal hard drive down to only about 100GB be used? What I would like to do is reduce the files and folders on my mac to the pictures and basic document files in my documents folder. I think I can do this by moving all music to an EHD which would free up more than 100GB on my macbook. I just am not sure how to do this and not affect my iPhone's iTunes etc.
    2. I want to back up my info to a cloud, specifically pictures and important docs... I would be introducing a third way to get disorganized. What do I need to do to stay ahead of the curve.
    Thanks in advance...

    Upgrade your MBP's internal boot drive to something larger, 250GB just doesn't cut it.
    A 2010 machine, I wouldn't bother with the expense of a SSD, a 7,200 750GB or 1TB should do nicely and you can install it yourself or have a local geek do it.
    You might as well max the RAM too, if your in AppleCare it won't violate it as long as nothing is broken.
    Carbon Copy Cloner is the preferred method to clone your entire OS X + Recovery HD partition (no BootCamp, use WinClone 3 for that) to a external GUID OS X ext J drive, hold the option key and boot from the clone, then reverse clone onto the new internal drive.
    OtherWorld computing, MacMall and Crucial.com are recommended for compatibility, videos and what not.
    Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
    don't forget to clean the cooling fins behind the fans, they get clogged with dust and overheat the machine.

  • What is the max GB size of a hard drive in a Presario S4010CL desk top computer

    I have replaced the factory hard drive in my Presario S4010CL, and then that hard drive and others several more times. Each time I have gone to a larger capacity drive. I am again at the point of installing a larger capacity hard drive. I want this to be the last drive I put in the computer, but I don't know what the largest drive capacity is that the mother board will operate completely. When I look at spec. sheets all they indicate is that the S4010Cl came with a little 60 GB hard drive, and the spec. sheets don't give any information on the maximum hard drive capacity.

    Hi,
    As the computer is not a laptop you can use as many hard drives as you have SATA/PATA connectors on the motherboard (make it double on PATA connectors due to the ribbon cables). More drives however, also means a more powerful power supply unit. I suggest to keep one hard drive for an operating system (smaller up to 120GB) for a better performance (as suggested by my colleague) and possible data loss in case of a drive failure. The other bigger one or ones would be for user data (movies, music, whatever). I couldn't find much details about the motherboard or data connections. Is it SATA or IDE?

  • What is the best way to cleanup my hard drive?

    I have a 2013 Pro with the 256gig SSD. I have installed and uninstalled and moved files everywhere since I got the notebook. I am now starting to focus on my music production and was cleaning up my files and organizing folders for everything. However, I noticed there are just tons of random files everywhere in the "All Files" section in finder. They range from .txt files to other things with random names. Im not too keen on re-storing the entire computer to factory state, so I was wondering what the best way is to just cleanup and organize the entire hard drive if that is at all possible?

    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • What's the best way to  erase a hard drive?

    I just switched all my "stuff" to my new Macbook and I want to erase everything off my old G4. Never done it before. Nervous. What's the best way?

    Boot to an Install CD.
    Run Disk Utility (X) or Drive Setup (9).
    Initialize the hard drive with the Write Zeroes or Zero all data option.
    It takes a long time, do not plan on doing anything for a few hours.
    -- your disk is now completely blank --
    Install any version of Mac OS, such as the one on the Installer CD. This allows the new recipient to see that your Mac still works, so it should not be immediately crushed.
    Unless you have nuclear secrets on it, there is no need for 7x or 35x overwriting. After the Write Zeroes pass, your data is only recoverable to those who wish to disassemble it in a clean room with expensive special equipment.
    For the extremely paranoid, there is always the "Hammer method":
    Remove the hard drive.
    Beat it to death with a hammer.
    Remove the platters and use them to make a wind chime.
    (Once opened, a Hard drive has a short time before the heads will crash and ruin some of the data, and possibly the heads themselves.)
    Deleting all the files, which takes only a minute or two, only clears the Directory. It does not write over the data blocks. Simple programs like Norton Utilities can get the files back.

  • What does the "other" section contain on my hard drive?

  • What is the best way to install & clone hard drives on macbooks? does apple do that?

    It is time for a new hard drive for my macbook - just doiubles the memory, but am still getting the spinning beach ball. The genius bar told me I need a new hard drive, but that I could buy it and out it in myself. But, I just heard that the best way to replace the hard drive is to clone it... and that is beyond my abilities.
    Does apple do that??? suggestions? thanks!

    Please note that "cloning" a hard drive is not the same as replacing it. You clone the drive to preserve its contents (usually on the drive that will be the replacement). You still have to get into the MB, physically, take out the old drive and install the new one. There are plenty of web sites that tell you how to do this replacement. This is one I like: http://www.macinstruct.com/node/130
    The details do vary depending on the vintage of your MB, so if that link is not for your model, try searching the web for instructions specific to your need. Or post back here with details about your Mac.
    If Apple did agree to do this for you it would probably cost almost as much as a new MB. (And if you do buy a new MB, my local Mac store will do the data transfer as a bonus!)

  • What's the icon that looks like a hard drive? (But isn't)

    When I download something off of the internet (HandBreak, in this case) I get the .dmg file which then uncompresses the application, correct? Then, I get the icon that looks a bit like an external hard drive and it appears under Devices in the Finder's sidebar. My question is: what is that icon and what do I need to do with it? Does it need to get moved into the Application folder? Do I delete it? Just not sure.
    Thanks.
    Chip

    what is that icon
    It represents the mounted image.
    what do I need to do with it?
    You need to click on it. If there's an application inside, move that to the Applications folder. If there's a brown package icon inside, double-click it.
