What type of hard drive is in my hp1000

what type of hard drive is in my hp1000 it has taken a dirt nap and i will need to get a new one

Hi:
Please enter the product number for your notebook in the applicable box at the link below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/siteHome?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=228&sw_lang=&product=top
The product # can be found on the same sticker as the serial number.
Then you will be directed to the support and driver page for your PC.
On the lower right side is a Manuals link.
There should be a maintenance and service guide which will tell you what the hard drive part numbers are.
Google one of them and you will have your answer. Sometimes they just state 5,400 RPM hard drive and not much more, but when you google the part number, you normally find out exactly the info you need.
If you have trouble finding the info, please post back with your full model number.

What type of hard drive replacement should i use to replace the hard drive in my first generation mac min 2005 model a 1103?

what type of hard drive replacement should I use to replace the hard drive on my first generation mac mini model a 1103? G4 1.25 mhz 40 gb hd 1 gb. mem.

You'll need a 2.5" parallel ATA interface hard drive. Most are 5400RPM, forget 7200RPM drives and slower 4200rpm drives. You don't want a serial ATA (SATA) drive, as that has a different connector and won't work.
One source I've used for drives is Newegg, and their parallel ATA hard drives are at http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007605%2060000344 2&IsNodeId=1&name=IDE%20Ultra%20ATA100%20%2f%20ATA-6 . Newegg also has many user comments about the drives. Other sources are OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ (Click on ATA on the left) . Look for at least a 3 year warranty.

What Type Of Hard Drive Do I Have & Backing Up.

I just got an email from Apple that says I have a Seagate Hard Drive that my fail and it is on recall. Call them to set up for a hard drive replacement. This raises questions for me I hope I can get answers here for.
1. How can I check to see if I actually have a Segate Drive?
I assume it is somewhere here, but not sure where:
"Apple Logo > About This Mac > More Info"
2. I am told that to swap the hard drive I will need to bring in all of my original install disc plus any other software I ordered with it (Final Cut Express in my case). So what is the best way to back everything up so when I get it back I will not have to re-type all of info for my emails, contacts, passwords and WEP for wifi, ect, ect.
3. Will Time Machine remember everything or will there still be some items that will require re-entering?
4. I have a 1TB internal drive that currently only has about 95 GB being used. Can I use a 400 GB external Passport that is MacJournaled as a Time Machine Backup?
5. What about security issues, since I assume Apple will keep my old seagate drive they recalled. Should I ask for it back or actually trust them to dispose of the data properly?
6. Any other tips before I begin this process is apprecitaed. I am trying to do this with as little headaches as possible.
Thanks.

Open Disk Utility which will display that information. However, since you were notified you should have the drive in question.
I would suggest a cloned backup of the drive on an external HDD:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
2. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
3. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination
entry field.
4. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
5. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
After cloning use OPTION booting to startup from the clone:
Boot Using OPTION key:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "OPTION" key.
3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
4. Select the external backup disk.
5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.
Now erase your internal drive:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your internal hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data - one pass - and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
This will remove all traces of your information from the drive as if it were new from the factory.

What type of hard drive do I need for a Creative Zen Vision

Hey everybody.
I have a Creative Zen Vision:M, and unfortunately after dropping it, the hard drive has decided to pack up!
I have decied to replace the hard dri've, but wondered which hard dri'ves are compatible with the Zen Vision:M? I know the hard drive is a .8" drive, but that's all I know what to look for so far...
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,
It uses a standard 2.5" HDD. You can find them around in any good computer shop. You can use larger (capacity) as well. If you wish to find exactly the same one please try:
(a) Open Device Manager,
(b) Expand Disk drives item
You can see brand and model of the current HDD on your computer. If it failed already, pull it out and check.
Regards.

How do I find out what type of hard drive I have?

I recieved a message from Apple that I had to have my 1TB Seagate hard drive replaced. However, when I look in "About this Mac," it says my memory is a "4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3". I don't know whether this "memory" is the same as my hard drive. Does this means that the message reached me incorrectly? I am not sure whether this is an Intel so sorry if I asked the question on the wrong board.

And if you want to verify that your hard drive is indeed under the current recall you can enter your machine serial number on this apple site:
http://www.apple.com/support/imac-harddrive/
It's a good idea to take a look at the Apple recall page every now and then, not all recalls have notifications sent out.

What types of hard drives are compatible with my HP Folio Laptop?

I got a refurbished HP Folio 1029wm.I'm statisified with its performance.
It's just for some reason that I wish to upgrade my hard drive to larger capacity.
I'm wondering whether the mSATA SSD is my only option? Any Alternatives?
Like SATA SSD, or hybrid drives, will they be possible to be installed on my Laptop?
Thanks!
This question was solved.

Hi,
You've got no other option because no slot for HDD, only for mSATA as you already know:
Hard drive
Description Spare part number
128-GB mSATA solid-state drive (SSD) 672616-001
If you wish bigger (capacity) HDD, please try this:

What type of hard drive for a first gen 20" iMac PPC

Do I need an EIDE drive? ATA?

They use ATA or PATA drives. Visit OWC for replacement drives.

What kind of hard drive do I need for my HP Pavilion dx6650us entertainment notebook PC?

I have a HP Pavilion dx6650us entertainment notebook PC that has the BSOD. Even when I run it in SafeMode I have absolutly NO desktop. I've tried EVERYTHING. I have lost hope. So im just going to buy a new hard drive. Does anybody have ANY idea what type of hard drive I need and aprox. how much it might cost? Please let me know(: Thank you.

It is a standard laptop 2.5 inch wide SATA hard drive like shown in this picture:
Look at Page 9 of this Manual:
Drive Manual
This will show how to replace it. Do you have the recovery disks that you could have made when the laptop was new? If not you are going to have to get a Windows disk or some HP recovery disks.
Here is a drive that would work for you.
160 gig 7200 rpm drive for $45
This drive will be faster than what you had and is a bit larger. A very good deal for the price. You perhaps already have a second hard drive in the system. See the manual on page 9 for the location of both hard drive bays. You could move the secondary drive (if there is one) over into the primary position without spending a nickel. In fact, that is a great idea. If you do that and still get the BSOD, then it might well be something else going on other than the hard drive. The hard drive is a likely issue but it could also be the memory and other things, too. However, I think the second drive is only found in the dx9000 models so do not be shocked if you do not have a secondary hard drive bay in your machine. I have never seen a dx6000 series but am pretty sure it is a lot like the dv6000 series of which I have seen more than my share. They have a lot of issues and I am concerned you will be spending money on a new hard drive that will not fix anything.

What type of hard disk should I use if I want to use it on mac and windows?

Hey Forum,
I am using windows xp on my macbook (snow leopard). I came across some dealers who say that there are hard disks for mac only and for both mac and windows. So, I wanted to buy a hard disk so that I can use it both on mac and windows xp, so what type of hard disk should I use? Must I partition into 2?
or are there any harddisk in the market which is compatible for both mac and windows xp without screwing up the format(NTFS/Mac OS X Journaled)? Pls look into this matter and help me with it.
All of your replies and suggestions is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Ala.

Run, don't walk, from that dealer! and never look back
Once in a very long while Apple will have customized firmware on drives, and it is possible to find SCSI/SAS or drives that are destined to be used with high end storage controllers.
But that is the exception that makes the rule.
SATA is SATA. Though.... there are now SATA III drives that don't work in XP, or that need a jumper, and Seagate and some drives have managed to deliver firmware that has caused trouble... and Apple has had to issue firmware updates to help compatibility....

What kind of hard drive is in the hp pavillion dv6700. its about 7 years old

its running vista, but the computer will not boot all the way. I did a diagnosis test and it said to replace the disk drive so im just wondering what kind of hard drive is in it. What happens is the computer loads to the the microsoft , right before you would put ur password in, and then just stays black.
This question was solved.

Piece of cake on your model.
If the test indicates the drive needs to be replaced, I wouldn't argue against that info.
You can try reinstalling the OS before buying a new HDD but if it doesn't work, then you know the drive is kaput.
Below is the link to the service manual.
R & R procedures are in chapter 4.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01295877.pdf
You will also need to reinstall the operating system. You can see if recovery disks are available by contacting HP technical support.
If you can read the 25 character MS Vista product key on the bottom of your PC, you can make your own Vista installation disk and use that to install the OS.
If you're up to a slight but rewarding challenge you can make your own if you can read your 25 character Vista product key on the PC.
Just download the 3 files you need at the link below, and read all of the instructions to create a bootable DVD installation disk using imageburn.
Disregard the part of the text under the first screen shot about "extract the files to the Vista folder."
The files were already extracted to that folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screen shot.
The other thing I noticed is on the 4th screen shot, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in myself, and then the other codes automatically populated.
When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message that about a WIM file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
I selected No, make the ISO file.
It was not that hard to do. I burned both the 64 bit disk and the 32 bit disk in case I ever need them.
I tested both of them on my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, they worked perfectly.
When you enter the product key, it knows what version of Vista you have.
http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-v....
After you successfully install Vista, you can then install the drivers from your PC's support and driver page.
This is where I buy my PC hardware:

You need to transfer the caddy, screws and connector from the old HDD to the new one, so don't toss anything out until the job is done.

What size external hard drive should I purchase

What size external hard drive should I purchase? I'm not tech savvy, so please speak slowly. I'm looking at OWC Mini Stack Classic to match my older Mac Mini. Do I need 500 GB, 1 TB or more? Plus, I have to add memory to upgrade to Snow Leopard. How much memory do I need and should I have an expert install it ?
Mac OSX version 10.5.8
Mac mini 3.1
Processor 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3
1 Processor
2 Cores
L2 Cache 3MB
Memory 2GB
BUS Speed 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version MM3.1.0081.B06
SMC version 1.35f0
Hard Drive
Format MAC OS Extended
Capacity 297.77 GB
Available 238.69 GB
Used 59.08 GB on disk

Good points raised by all.
In my mini configs - both older and newer flatter model - I have kept their ministack external drive on top of the mini; with 3 or 4 little rubber feet added to the mini's base to give it a bit more elevation from the surface they are sitting on and a bit better chance to breathe. I'm not impressed by the very small air intakes on the bottom and the hot air that often comes out the back or how warm the case feels. Especially in the heat of summer.
I do turn the ministacks on/off as needed (primarily for backups once a week) as they're not entirely quiet and sometimes seem to have a low hum vibration. Nothing crazy. I just like it as dead quiet as possible sometimes. Plus the fan does not turn off even if the mini and ministack drive have shut down. The newer wide & slim model does seem a bit quieter than the older model.
Check through system profiler to see if your system has 2x1GB or 1x2GB. Most likely it is 2x1GB and you'd need to remove both to double your ram. On the off chance it has a free slot; a single 2GB stick would get you to 4GB. Check on the cost difference between the 2x2GB kit and a 2x4GB kit. I have an older core duo mini that functions fine with 2x2GB of RAM and 10.6.8. But, if you plan to continue to use the mini for several more years as a primary machine including upgrading the OS to Yosemite; it might not be a bad idea to just max it to 2x4 8GB. Yosemite really likes RAM to maximize performance.
Along the lines of keeping the same mini and doing upgrades. The biggest speed improvements are made by replacing the original internal hard drive with a flash drive. Of course this is a more technical upgrade, you really need to take the mini apart more and you have to weigh the cost of the upgrades and possibly paying somebody to do them; vs the cost of a newer system which would have a significantly faster processor and other improvements.

What size external hard drive do i need to backup my macbook pro?

I know I need to backup my computer, especially since I have been experiencing some problems with it and will need to take it into a store to get looked at, but I do not know what size external hard drive I need to back my computer on.

Drives are so low in cost today, go for something that will meet your needs for a while...if you are going to use Time Machine, get a drive large enough that you can have a partition double the size of the internal drive for TM backups, and a partition you can use for more storage and work space.
A decent drive like the Mercury Elite Pro 2 TB drive OWC sells goes for less than $200 (US) now. Has a fast interface and is easy to setup.

What size external hard drive do i need for Time Machine

What size external hard drive should I get to be my Time Machine backup? My iMac is 1TB. (also, I have MBP that is 250gb and will need one for it as well)
Thank you.

It is better to buy an external drive that has 3 times the storage capacity
as of the computer's internal HD.
Best.
