where is the hard drive on hp mini 1000

Hi,
You machine can have 1 of these:
  8-GB solid-state drive 
16-GB solid-state drive 
60-GB, 4200-rpm hard drive
and they are tricky ones in a tricky place. You can find them using the following book (pp 42 & 43 under Mass Storage Devices):

  • When I attempt to open iphoto, I get the loading icon in the working space/picture area.  If I try to reinstall ilife '11, will I lose any pictures?  Where, on the hard drive, are all my pictures actually stored?

    You won't lose anything because you have a back up, right?
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Mac Book Pro Retina with Mt Lion.  Where is the Hard Drive?

    Mac Book Pro Retina with Mt Lion.  Where is the Hard Drive?

    Technically there is no "hard drive" in the Retina MacBook Pro, as all models come with "flash" storage which isnt a "hard disk drive." So if you are wondering why you are not hearing classic hard drive chatter and spin-up sounds then this is the reason.
    Other than that, logically the devices are treated the same, so as Kappy mentions you just have to enable it on your desktop or go to your computer name in the Finder sidebar under "Devices" or otherwise go to the top level of the system's folder structure to reveal any mounted volumes, including the internal drive.

  • Where is the hard drive located on a 13" Macbook Pro Early 2011?

    Thinking about upgrading, just wondering where the hard drive is located?  I've read lower left and lower right?
    Thanks.

    depends where you're looking - it's on the lower right if you're looking at it from the top.
    it's on the lower left if you flip it over - bottom side up

  • I have lion.  where is the hard drive? stupid question.  i know.

    hi, i have snow leopard but have just purchased macbook pro with lion.  where can i find the hard drive?  with snow leopard you just go to a finder window but lion doesn't have it listed there?  i need to upload a color profile, etc.  the directions tell me to go to the hard drive first, then library>colorsync>profiles....and i could do all that if i could complete the first darn step!!!  thank you community.

    Make sure that this option in Finder's preferences is checked:

  • Where has the hard drive gone after installing lion?, where has the hard drive gone after installing lion?

    I'm looking in finder but can no longer see the hard drive. Where has it gone to?

    If I understand correctly, you can edit what is shown in the side bar within the "Finder Preferences".
    under the "sidebar" tab tick the boxes of the things you want to be shown in the side bar of Finder.
    under the "General" tab tick the boxes of the things you want to be shown on the desktop.
    Hope this is what you are after and this helps.

  • Where is the hard drive located on the 15"? Possible problem.

    I just got a 15" MBP refurb and have noticed that when I open the lid, from it being in sleep mode, I have about 2-4 seconds of "muffeled clacking". It sounds like it is coming from under the Return key. I thought it was the optical drive, but I'm wondering if it is the hard drive. No problems other than that during normal use. None of my iBooks or my other PowerBook had this problem.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    The hard drive is located to the left of the trackpad under the palm rest. The optical drive is on the other side. The location you refer to would be near the location of the right side fan.

  • Where is the hard drive icon

    Just got a new hard drive that I wasn't anticipating and yep, I lost a lot of stuff. Trying like a maniac to get back what I had, including programs.
    My MacBook Pro is mid 2009 (or Sept. 2009) and it has Mavericks on the new HD. My old one (Leopard originally but upgraded all the way to Mavericks)
    had an old Mac HD icon on the desktop. How do I get that back? I know I can go to Launchpad and see installed programs and I might could get used to that, but I used to access through the desktop icon. But going to that Launchpad icon does not show me what drives are open or available to be ejected etc.
    Plus I used to have other things in that same view - shortcuts to folders I frequently accessed.
    Also, iTunes is reading as if I already have 5 authorized computers, so won't let me backup my stuff until I deauthorize this one or all of them.
    I hesitate to deauthorize all because I may lose stuff and not sure what they are saying is authorized anyway. I have a new (3rd iPhone), an iPad, and this Mac with the new HD. I may have synced eons ago my first iPhone with the old desktop that we still have (but never use) and I have previously synced 2 of my son's
    iPhones to my Macbook, but that was under their accounts. Somehow in converting from my 1st iPhone or going from PC to MacBook or somewhere years ago, I managed to have 2 profiles that are used for purchases, though I would like to have only one - not sure how to get them all under one. So I am not sure what to deauthorize and how without mucking something up! This is technically the same laptop albeit with new Hard drive - essentially I got all new parts except a new display from Mac repair. . . .
    PLEASE HELP!!

    1. Choose Preferences from the Finder’s Go menu, click on General, and check the box for it.
    2. The Deauthorize All function won’t erase your data. Back it up anyway.

    The sign that fans are working means that your Mac is OK. If you are worried about temperatures, download Temperature Monitor and tell us the temperatures with their parts. 1375 rpm seems OK.
    Aluminum gets hot quickly, and it's normal that your iMac feels hot when you touch it. At the top back there are the fans, so it's normal that it's warmer, more if they are working hardly

  • Removing the hard drive from an hp laserjet 2300

    where is the hard drive located and how do you remove it from the machine ?

    See here for instructions on removing the hard disk; once removed and placed in an enclosure, it will be readable from the MacBook Pro.

  • I was given the wrong macbook when I gave mine in for repair.  I want to complain.  Also, they wiped ALL my data off the hard drive.  I want to complain to someone in authority.  How?

    I am extremely disappointed and angry with Apple service.  I am a writer and booked three weeks in Spain so that I could finish my book.  On the second day my laptop cut out on me asI was working on it, so I took it to Goldenmack in Cadiz.  Not only was I given someone else's macbook when I went back to collect it, but then when I returned to the UK, the Apple shop in Brighton managed to delete ALL my data from the hard drive because I was unlucky enough to get a trainee on her first day.  I have since learned she should not have deleted my data without even running a diagnostic.  She told me she was going to 'restore' the drive.  I took this to mean she was going to restore my work.  But no!  She erased the lot.
    I complained and eventually was put in touch with a supervisor, who I was told  had authority to resolve the issue. She said she would get the shop to phone me.  That was ten days ago and I'm still waiting. 
    Ok so there's nothing I can do now to get back the three chapters of my book that I have lost and didn't back up, but the  hard drive on this laptop is still faulty.  I try to back up my work every time I use the machine but as soon as I attach an external drive, the whole thing shuts down. I can't use it any more as I can't risk losing any more work.    This laptop is only just over a year old and this is just not acceptable, especially since I have really looked after it. 
    This is an appalling service I have encountered from Apple, and I am not going to ignore it.  I have contacted the young chap whose laptop I was erroneously given, and the repair of which I paid for! (although I did eventually get a refund),  to ask him if he had been given mine as well.  He said he had been completely unaware that his laptop had been given to me and he is furious as he had loads of "sensitive material" on it."  I have no idea in whose hands my laptop has been either, or indeed what damage it sustained while it was supposed to be in for repair.

    Contact Apple Support:

    Be sure to refer to the repair ticket number.
    Sounds like a terrible mixup.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    whats a green drive? thnks
    Green is a marketing term for a drive designed for lower power use, lower noise, and lower heat. The side effect is that it's not as fast. Black drives are designed for highest performance, so they might use more power and run hotter and noisier. I upgraded my Apple Time Capsule with a green drive, but I put a black drive in my Mac Pro.

    7200 RPM drives are faster than 5400 RPM drives.
    As in cars, RPM is not the sole determinant of performance. In some cases, a newer drive at a lower RPM is faster than an older drive at a higher RPM, when the newer drive uses better technology. I have heard that some of today's high-capacity 5400RPM drives are faster than 7200RPM drives of lower capacity simply because the very high density of a 1TB drive means more data passes under the head even at a lower RPM. Certainly there have been times in Apple's past when new lower RPM drives were faster than higher RPM drives of the previous generation, a notable example being when 4200RPM perpendicular recording drives were introduced and beat 5400RPM drives.
    Yes, generally RPM can be used to compare, but it is important to realize it isn't always true.

  • 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.
