Hallo, ich suche mehrere 44 polige Pfostenstecker für 2.5 Zoll Notebook-Festplatten, wenn möglich mit Flachbandkabel zum Anschluss von 2 Notebook-HDs an bzw. in einem Laptop. Das Kabel schaut dann aus wie die Standard-3.5 Zoll IDE-Kabel mit 2.5 mm Rastermass und 40 Pole, jedoch im 2.0 mm Raster...

I often move my hard drives around between my home PCs. I use 80-conductor ribbon leads. All my hard drives are configured for Cable Select. When I have two hard drives on my primary IDE port and I remove the one at the far end then my BIOS recognises the drive in the middle but then it stops...

OS: Win2000 I have a 170GB partition and want to copy it to a new 200 GB drive. I have tried Partition Magic 7 and although it appears capable it demands that the PC is restarted and then stops at the Windows Startup DOS style progress bar, somewhere close to the end. I am pretty sure this is a...

The driver, located on the mobo's CD, fails install (the entire message is "failed"). BIOS settings to enable high-speed USB seem to be correct. Running Win2k. Has anyone else seen this and found the answer?

I thoughtlessly smoked my wife's friend's HD by reversing the power plug to the drive. (Don't ask how!) Although I have reached geezerhood status, I still do stupid things. A friend suggested I might salvage the drive by getting a duplicate drive and swapping the drive boards - maybe the HD drive...

Does anyone here, by any chance, have experience with the ARAID 99 1000L? Specifically, how to obtain the status of the array (I'm using it in FreeBSD). As usual, it comes with Windoze SNMP stuff, but nada for UNIX. Thanks, - Mark

I have a Western Digital 160 gigabyte, 8 megabyte buffer--hooked to an Abit KD7 motherboard. In the BIOS, I see NOTHING that specifies whether Ultra DMA is enabled. In Windows under Device Manager and IDE Channels, there IS NOT an "advanced settings" for this either. Note: there was earlier, but a...

I am having trouble with a hard drives on the system below. I just got a replacement for the ATA100 45GB IBM drive which died, an ATA100 80GB Hitachi. When I sent the IBM back, I also bought the 160GB Seagate SATA and put a fresh install of WinXP Pro on as I lost it when the IBM died. Now I...

I have a spare HD that was used for windows, tried red hat on that drive for 6 months, now want to change it back to Windows. My bios sees the HD correctly, but windows and dos do not see it. Fdisk cannot see it to partition. I am stuck. Tx Mike

Looking for best SATA converter for standard IDE Western Digital HD. Will be using VIA K8T800/VIA VT8237 chipset. TIA

I bought Drive Image 2002 about two years ago to copy a HDD for an upgrade. Shortly after successfully cloning the drive I was able to achieve one image to CD/RW media. Since this time, I have never been able to successfully complete an image again. This would be mostly academic except that I am...

Hi all I´m installing a new hd (ibm 6 gb) in a notebook but when i restart the bios doesn't detect the hd. While the notebook is switched on i can ear the hd working with a noise that i dont like at all (repetitive clack clack clack...). I'm doing this because during the scandisk the computer...

I have a machine running Windows XP Pro that is almost tapped out for disk space. The existing HDD is an IDE 100 and my motherboard supports SATA-RAID. If I install a new HDD and use Drive Image or similar to clone my present drive will I run afoul of Microsofts XP registration? If I were to...

Hi, here is my configuration. I have a Epox 8RGA+ motherboard with an AMD XP 3000+ CPU, and it comes with 2 IDE ports. I also have 4 IDE devices to install: 2 x Western Digital WD1600 hard disks, one DVD-RAM drive, and one CDRW drive. Should I put two hard disks on the same bus (same IDE cable, one...

Hello Svend Thanks for creating your Cyldir utility, it has made possible for me to recover some important files from a customer´s computer which had its FAT damaged when the customer ran Norton´s SpeedDisk and DiskDoctor "utilities". They created some unreadable sectors in

I'm running a Maxtor 250GB SATA disk in a Shuttle XPC barebones case. The last week or two my machine (running XP with all critical updates applied) is hanging repeatedly. I am spyware and virus free. I have a 20GB C: partition and the rest as the D: drive. I think the D: drive is flaky, as the...

Hello - Wondered if anyone could tell me if there's some means of making a complete nightly image of a drive, so that in the event of a crash on the main drive, the backup is ready to go, with absolutely no need for application installation, drivers, etc?

One of the things that TrueImage is currently lacking is some sort of automated "housekeeping" routine for the created images. For example, let's say you have a scheduled incremental backup that runs once a week and creates images on your D: drive. Well, unless you keep up with deleting old...

Hi, I am new to this and am seeking some guidance in what to do next. There was three primary partitions on the drive, fat32, linux fs and linux swap. I'm only interested in recovering the fat32. Attempting access the drive, it shows only a single partition and that it seems the root directory...
