What the max HDD size my Motherboard can take?

I got these specs:
Motherboard:   MSI MS-6342/K7M Pro (MS-6340M)/K7TM Pro (MS-6340)
Bios: http://img230.echo.cx/img230/2712/pixx9kl.jpg
I want to know if they can run on ATA 133, if they can get 16 mb Cache, and what is the max size max each HDD?
It it not mentioned on the mainsite :-/

Hello Erwin!
As it normally is the same BIOS for them, I think this might help:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=131
"On-Board IDE
• An IDE controller on the VIA® VT82C686B Chipset provides IDE HDD / CD-ROM with PIO,
   Bus Master and Ultra DMA 33/66/100 operation modes. "
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=131&kind=1
BIOS, update version 4.4
"-Support HDD Size larger than 137GB"
Hmm, how can you see if you have succesfully updated to version 4.4? because I am not sure if I did it right 
Also it supports HDD larger than 137gb, does it support up to a 300 gb?

  • What is Max HDD size for MacBook Pro 15" bought in 2006-07

    Hi
    I bought a MacBook Pro 15" about 3.5 - 4 yrs ago. The model is A1211.
    It came with 120GB HDD, 2GB RAM.
    What is the maximum HDD size that this will support? The Apple store employee says, it will support only upto 160 GB. But, I am skeptical it would be that low.
    So, was wondering if anybody knows the max size, and also, which HDD would be best. I want at least 320 GB.

    You can get a 750 GB drive that is 9.5mm high. As far as I know, the 1 TB drives are all still 12.5 mm high, although that could change at any time.
    The fastest 750 GB drive I know of is this one:
    http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/products/laptops/laptop-hard-drives/
    It is 7200 RPM. At 5400 RPM, there are many other choices. You might want to shop at Newegg, which often has specials on drives, as does Tiger Direct. Newegg also has reviews of individual drives you can look at.
    Personally, I like Western Digital drives, and put the 500 GB Scorpio Black drive in my 2007 MBP, where it has performed without issue. The largest drive that originally shipped with my MBP was a 4200RPM 250 GB drive, the very biggest one you could order in a MBP back then.
    Any 2.5 inch SATA drive should work just fine. The only one I would avoid is WD's 640 GB drive because a number of people have has issues with it in their Macs.
    You might shop around on line a bit, and if you are torn between two or more drives, post back with what they are and ask for opinions. Everybody has favorite drives, so it may not be possible to get anything other than a bunch of opinions.
    One other thing to watch out for. Some drives are sold with or without some form of free fall sensor. Apple has its own built in sensor called the Sudden Motion Sensor. In some machines and drives, there seems to be a conflict between the drive's sensor and Apple's SMS. If that happens, you would need to disable Apple's sensor. Usually it's easier just to select the drive without a built-in sensor and let Apple's SMS work as its designed to do. In the Seagate drive I linked, it's called "G-Force", but would have a different name in a different brand.
    Incidentally, you can up your RAM to 3 GB if you like.
    Good luck!

  • What is the max hdd size for a macbook 2.1 (late 2006)

    I have a Macbook 2.1 (late 2006). Its 80 MB HDD crashed.
    What maximum HDD capacity/size can my Macbook handle?

    Replace it with any notebook sized, 2.5", SATA I or II HDD. Presently, the largest that will fit is a 1.5 GB drive by Toshiba. You cannot install a drive that is over 9.5 mm high.
    Look for drives at OWC to get an idea of what's available and pricing. You can buy the drive you want anywhere reliable you want, so look for the best price available for the make and model you choose. Good brands are Hitachi, Seagate, Toshiba, and Samsung.

  • Does anyone know what the max file size is?

    I'm just curious, because I want a portable music player that can play audio files in excess of 150mb (wav files) and am wondering if the 5G ipods can handle such files without skipping.

    There is no maximum file size.
    The 5th Gen iPods can play full length movies, in excess of 500mb. It won't have any trouble playing a large WAV file.
    Skipping won't be an issue... but you can be sure that your battery life will suffer a bit. If the file size is larger than the iPods buffer (which I believe is 64mb on the 5th Gen), then the hard disk will spin constantly throughout the playback of the track. This will put a strain on the battery.

  • Max hdd size for ms-6140 ??

    anyone out there know the maximum size that the ms-6140 motherboard can handle?? its also called the 'micro ATX EX7' on some occasions.
    ive searched alot and cant find anything...
    bios has been flashed to most recent version, even though its only from 1998...
    thanks for any help!
    oh and i dont have any hdds lying around to simply test the boards capabilities :(

    thanks, i didnt really know what those extra jumpers on HDDs were for.
    i borrowed a 40gb HDD off a friend and did as you said, the bios then auto-detected it as being about 33000MB in size.. would this be the maximum HDD size?
    you did mention that by its age, the max HDD size might be 32GB, so this all sounds like we've found the answer;
    have we?
    thanks heaps!  )

  • Max file size OSB 11g can process

    Hi,
    What is the max file size OSB 11g can process? We want to do a POC that picks a file from FTP do some complex transformation and post to another FTP server.
    So in this scenario what can be the max file size OSB 11g can handle?
    Regards,
    Abdul

    Again, there is no fixed limit for message size JMS can handle. It depends on the Heap size available. But, In my experience JMS will reduce the practical limit much more than File/FTP transport. I have seen that you start getting a lot of OOM errors if you try to put very large messages on JMS.
    Also, if you are going to transform the payload after reading via FTP/File transport, then you will need to initialize the complete payload in memory which will restrict the maximum message size which can be processed properly.
    For large Files using Content Streaming is recommended but you can not access the streamed content within a message flow (hence no transformations).
    Another limiting factor is CPU utilization, doing complex transformations on large payload will consume a lot of CPU which will effect any other processes running on the same machine (could be another service instance on OSB itself).
    OSB is supposed to work with lightweight, stateless and fast processing. If you have very complex transformations, invest in an XML Appliance.
    If you need to transfer huge files, then use ODI.

  • What is the maximum HDD size for Pavilion DV7-3105ea and can I add a 2nd HDD.

    Hi,
    Please could someone advise me as to the maximum HDD size that can be installed in a Pavilion DV7-3105ea.
    Additionally is it possible to add a second HDD.
    Thanks and kind regards,
    jB

    There is no theoretical limit the only limit is what is sold on the market. Any correctly sized SATA laptop drive will work. They do now make 1TB drives that will fit and yes there is a secondary hard drive bay so theoretically you could have 2TB of storage. You are going to need 1 or 2 drives like this:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152291
    The drive has to be 9.5 mm in height some 1TB laptop drives are too thick.
    You also likely need a second hard drive caddy/connector like this:
    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=222&zenid=2a83d0d222d80c6...
    And here is a link to the Manual showing how to get to the hard drive bay:
    Drive Manual
    Check your system to see if a secondary drive caddy/connector is there but it likely is not and you need the part linked above. Good luck.

  • What is the max file size that a Adapter Engine [J2SE] can handle ?

    We are having a scenario where a 4 GB compressed file needs to be sent across without mapping, I'm trying to explore the possible options to tackle this scenario.
    Some of the options, we are considering :
    - Sending a file from one Adapter Engine [J2SE] to another Adapter Engine [J2SE] bypassing PI. Adapter Logs will be monitored. What is the maximum file size that can be then handled assuming a standard installation ?
    - What is the max file size that Adapter Engine [J2SE] can send through PI without mapping?
    Any help with the above options or with any other possible solutions to handle extremely large file transfers will be much appreciated.

    Hi,
    j2se is not a good option here
    if you have 4gb then you need a copy solution
    a) build an proxy that will just copy the file from sender dest to receiver
    b) build an adapter that will do the same as proxy)
    this way processing of this message will be controlled with SAP PI/XI
    it will be as quick as copy & paste of the 4gb file
    I did the a) for one of the flow for 300 mb and it works perfectly

  • We are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient

    we are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient.
    Appreciate your support and if possible , how to do this?

    If you want to work with Mac OS X, you need one computer per simultaneous user.
    What you are describing, " Multiple simultaneous logins to a single computer" is not avialable on a regular Mac of any description, unless you decide to use Unix tools instead of Mac OS X.
    Server will happily store files for many, many users and provide them to multiple (up to hundreds) of computers at "near hard Drive" speeds over Gigabit Ethernet. It can make the File Sharing part easy.

    i have searched in many pages i seeing answers like 'may be 1000' , 'not sure'....
    Could any one tell me the exact limit of IN Clause in 10g.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Could any one tell me the exact limit of IN Clause in 10g.1000 items such as IN (1, 2, 3, ..., 1000)
    No limit on the number of sets: IN ((1), (2), (3), ...) *<=== NOT QUITE!* See below
    No limit in sub-queries: IN (SELECT ...)
    Edited by: Frank Kulash on Jun 3, 2009 9:43 AM
    The limit of 1000 applies to sets of single items: (x) IN ((1), (2), (3), ...)
    There is no limit if the sets contain two or more items: (x, 0) IN ((1,0), (2,0), (3,0), ...)
    Thanks to Michaels for pointing this out.

  • Restore dvd and MAX HDD size

    Hi, I assume I have a HDD with a problem, someone gave me this powerbook without DVD s. Used to boot fine but now it just does not. On the apple site I dont see links to buy older (pre intel) OSX disks so I can not run disk utilities or reinstall. Where can I buy and download OSX images that I can create a bootdvd with, from my PC.
    Suppose the HDD is broken, what s the maximum HDD size. Smallest I can get here is 180Gb, originall disk is 60Gb. Here s what is written in battery bay:
    1.3ghz/256Mb/60Gb/Combo/BT/APX

    There are several possibilities if you're in the US - don't know about Italy.
    Get original replacement system discs - You can call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a fee, a replacement set of system discs (if available), can be ordered. However, the discs will be for the original version of OS, that was pre-installed, when the Mac was manufactured.
    Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*. For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray) (See Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac? ). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
    After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
    Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page

    You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/TigerInstall_SetupGuide.pdf
    When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
    Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.
    Leopard is the max OS you can install, but Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.

  • Need info about max HDD size available for Satellite Pro M30-813

    Hello,
    The following question is mainly to be addressed to authorized Toshiba support personnel. What exactly is the limitation of a maximum size of an internal HDD that I could use with my Satellite Pro M30-813?
    Recently, I have bought and installed seagate 160 GB SATA drive, onto which I have successfully installed WXP Pro and have been running it for quite a while with no problems. Recently, I have been copying large amount of data from an external hard drive to my new internal disk, and as the files were being copied as I noticed having about 50 GB free space left, I had experienced windows "delayed write failed" and a massive partition failure with no possibility to recover data. The system would no longer boot and the whole MBR was damaged. As the result, I have lost all data on my new disk.
    Although, I realize that Toshiba is not responsible for additional hardware that I use with my laptop and that is not officially supported by Toshiba, I am certain that as an end user of a Toshiba product I have the right to know about a max HDD size limitation information for my notebook model. Therefore, I request Toshiba technical support representative to give me a straight official answer to my question.
    Thank you in advance,
    Andrejs

    Hi Andrew
    > The following question is mainly to be addressed to authorized Toshiba support personnel
    I think you are in the wrong area if you are looking for an answer from an authorized Toshiba support.
    This is a Toshiba user-to-user forum! You will meet here Toshiba notebook owner and enthusiasts who share knowledge and tries solve problems but nobody from Tosh :(
    I could provide my experience with the M30 Satellite and the HDD upgrade possibilities.
    In my knowledge the Sat M30 supports a 40GB, 60GB and 80GB HDD for sure.
    In my opinion you could use the 100GB HDD but bigger HDDs will not run and functions correctly.
    So switch to a lower HDD size and enjoy the notebook!
    Ive goggled a little bit and found compatible HDD and the part numbers
    HITACHI GBC000Z810 -> 80GB
    HITACHI GBC00014810 -> 80GB
    TOSHIBA HDD2188B -> 80GB
    HITACHI G8C0000Z610 -> 60GB
    HITACHI G8BC00013610 -> 60GB
    TOSHIBA HDD2183 -> 60GB
    TOSHIBA HDD2184 -> 60GB
    I hope this could help you a little bit!
