Western Digital 2 TB Caviar Black SATA 6GB/s Internal OEM Drive WD2002FAEX
Just built this machine. Installed Windows 7 on the 500GB drive. Both drives are plugged into the blue SATA 6GB ports on my board. My drivers for these controllers are Marvell 91xx SATA 6G v1.2.0.1002 (Dated 3/7/2011). The second 2TB drive shows up in BIOS as well as Drive Management in Windows, but it will not be recognized as an accessible drive that can be formatted, partitioned, or anything. I get an error each time I attempt to format or partition through Drive Management. When I plug the 2TB drive into one of the other (black, Intel) SATA ports, the drive works fine, but in the blue ports it just won't seem to work. The 500GB drive, however, works perfectly as the boot disk in these ports.
i am trying to connect my internal harddrive for my dead laptop via a usb port of a working one, but i get the message that the device is not recognized
View 1 Replies View RelatedI formatted and installed windows 7 64 bit in a pc which previously had windows 7 32 bit. When i booted my 1tb dynamic disk was not detected. So I went into disk management and it had listed my disk as "Foreign Disk". So i imported the foreign disk.
The drive was detected and opened. So i rebooted the pc but now the drive is still not appearing in my computer. When i go to disk management the 1tb appears but there is no drive letter assigned. When i try to assign drive letter it statest that "Specified File cannot be found"
What software or way to format the hard drive data, making it safe to delete data no recovery possible. Such as DBAN, but erased too long. I tested a 160G hard disk data erase, with six hours or so

View 4 Replies View RelatedI bought a cable with ESATA on one end and SATA on the other end. What am I supposed to do with it? I connected a standard SATA drive to one end and the other end to the ESATA port on the back of the computer, and used an external power supply for the drive. The BIOS does not see the drive. Suspecting the drive needed to be powered from the same power supply as the computer, I plugged the drive into a normal power connector in the computer, but used the new cable to connect it to the external ESATA port. Still the BIOS sees nothing. The drive works perfectly as a SATA drive in the normal SATA connection.

I have the lastest drivers available from Asmedia and it does not remove the icon from the taskbar.
I also try the MS register fix My internal SATA device appears in Devices and Printers and in the - Microsoft Answers
1- Since the sata port is not Intel , would the register location be the same for the proposed solution above to work?
2- I tried channels 0..5 , should I try any other number? The solution says that the channel in device manager it is not always the correct one. Under device manager , general tab it displays "Location 0 (Channel 1, Target 0, Lun 0)"
I am building a htpc but cannot seem to get windows to install onto my SSD.The SSD is visible in BIOS and on the 'where do you want to install windows' screen.I am wondering if that is because the OS cannot install to my mobos sata 3 portsI havecrucial m4 SSD 4GBMSI H61MA-E35 with usb3/sata3The sata 3 ports are ASmedia according to the manual.i think i know where this is heading and will be fairly annoyed if so because i bought this board specifically for the sata 3 boot drive option.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi upgraded to windows 7, but also went to microcenter and purchased a sony optiarc 24x dvd burner. they claimed it was new, but microcenter has products come in plastic bags sometimes. i was leery.
windows 7 has been up for days, i've used the optiarc a few times. i tried to burn a cd using the windows 7 burning feature, and it was about 600mb and took about 15 minutes (does that even sound right for 52x?). with 3 minutes left, it froze. windows was working fine, but i eventually had to halt the task. when i did, explorer died, and i couldn't bring it back. i did ctrl+alt+del and shut down the PC, but it never happened. i just kept hearing the dvd burner spin up and down.
finally had to turn it off, when i turned it back on it posted then said "press any key to boot from cd," then "boot failure," so i restarted, went into the bios and the HD was set as first boot device. saved and tried again. same thing. turned the PC off and unplugged the cd burner entirely, started it up, same problem. turned it off, plugged in the HD SATA to another port (mine are grouped in two, the cd and hard drive were in the same group, so i plugged them both to the other group of sata ports - 2 per group - Gigabyte DS3 mobo, btw). started it up and it was fine.
turned the PC off, unplugged the cd burner entirely and hooked up the HD in the old sata, same "boot from cd" problem again. like the sata port is COMPLETELY fubarred. i don't know what happened. is this windows 7 fault or is my cd burner screwed up? i have it unplugged now and plan on taking it back and getting a refund tomorrow, as i think the problem is the cd burner.
any thoughts or opinions? anything else to add? i added 4gb of RAM today and everything was working fine, then coincidentally this happened. doesn't seem like the RAM has anything to do with this...what do you think happened here?
I'm attempting to install a retail copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit (VPCEB15FM) or "PCG-71312L" on this laptop. However, this message appears: "A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now." The problem is that I cannot find the Intel 5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller drivers for Windows 7 64-Bit to put on a floppy or USB drive. I've combed the Sony website and Google and the only Intel 5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller Drivers that can be placed on a floppy or USB are for Windows XP. Without the TXTSETUP.OEM, I'm dead in the water! The 64-Bit drivers (INDOTH-00215023-0042.EXE) are for an already installed Windows 7. BTW guys, the the BIOS settings on this laptop is as anemic as it gets, so there is really no way to optimize there..

I have a sata dvd writer, and two sata hard drives. Hoping to use them all. DVD writer is a lightscribe that's why I wanted to keep it.
My setup: XP on my C-drive with 2x SATA drives as slaves.
My requirement: I want to take my drives out and just use one of my SATA drives to install WINDOWS 7. If i tell my BIOS that my new C-Drive is that SATA drive, will i have to tell it again that my old drive is an IDE when i put that back in without the new SATA drive plugged in.
My reason: I have got the new WINDOWS 7 and want to install everything and update all my programs also have a good look and learn before i start having my work on it. It is easier for me to just unplug the power leads on each drive before i start then to have to redo all my work if i mess WINDOWS 7 up and have to format. I cant afford to loose everything.
Yes i could back everything up but i need to work while this is happening if you know what i mean.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI get the error message below when I attempts to perform a custom installation of
Windows 7 (Ultimate, 32 bits version) on a logical partition of 16 GB formatted in NTFS with a Seagate SATA disk ST3250823AS .
windows is unable to install to the selected location -- error x80040154
I saw that it is possible to load drivers on my hard drive during installation.
The problem is that on Seagate website, drivers are no longer available.
I tried to extend the partition to 20 GB, but it failed too.
that the system doesn't recognize the Sata HDD on which Windows 7 is installed. I first thought the the HDD was done, because the system recovery couldn't be started and every action was followed with "disk read error". The next step I took was booting with Ubuntu live and there was the surprise, Ubuntu recognized the HDD and all the folders were there, so it seems the problem is not with the HDD but with the OS. What next step should I take

View 16 Replies View RelatedI updated the SATA AHCI controller from device manager and rebooted. Shortly after I noticed disk drives F:, Z:, and X: are gone. No big deal I'll just repartition right? No they aren't showing up in Disk Management? The driver I installed I got from gigabyte it was a preinstall driver for ahci. I just installed windows 7 64 yesterday to a Samsung 830 256gb and it was working fine maybe I shouldn't have messed with it. C: drive is working fine just the other 3. Should I roll the driver back? System restore? Did I install the wrong driver?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just fitted a SSD drive in my computer windows 7 64 bit system, when I installed windows onto the new SSD I just unplugged my old hard drive and fitted the SSD and just installed windows 7 and all worked ok. But after the new install was working I was told I needed to make a change in the BIOS to alter the settings from treat Sata as IDE to treat Sata as AHCI. I did this and all was ok with the new drive the installation worked and the new drive is running ok.
But now I have since read that I should have made the bios change before installing windows nad should not be done after the install, So do I need to reinstall windows 7 with the bios changes to treat sata as AHCI before I install or will it work ok it seems to be ok but im not sure now. I was also under the impression that I could still have my old hard drive fitted and just select the hard drive I wanted to boot from as the computer started, I wanted to do this so.
I could still has access to all my old stuff if I needed it. But now my old hard drive will not boot until I change the Bios back to treat Sata as IDE, so is this not going to work or will I have to change the bios each time I need access to my old drive. Also I have an Asus P6T SE motherboard so can I plug the SSD into any Sata port or is it better to plug it into number 1 if so how do I find which one is number one.
I've recently purchased two 30GB SSDs which I have set up in a RAID 0 array and I have installed Windows onto these drives. I have a second, 2TB Seagate Barracuda Green HDD that I have used to put my user profiles and additional programs/games on as it wouldn't fit on the SSD.Everything was fine for a few days after installation. Then this morning I rebooted the computer and it just stalled on the flashing cursor (underscore) in the top left corner of the screen. I did the basic fixes (Windows repair, checking RAM) and nothing worked.Then I thought that I should try disconnecting all but the SSD with the OS on it. SUCCESS! It booted to Windows but couldn't find any programs/user data so it created a new "profile". I shutdown the computer and tried reconnecting just the data hard drive.I have two additional hard drives (used for backups) that don't affect anything at all when I plug them in.Does anybody know what could be the problem? I'm at a loss and I need the computer
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently embarked on the journey of building my first custom PC. Everything was going well, until I hit a speed bump of installing Windows 7 64 bit. So like usual I boot from the CD drive, and stick Windows 7 in. When it gets to the point where I'm going to install, it is unable to find my SATA drive to install Windows 7 on.
It then asks me to "locate drivers." So it gives me an option to browse, and when it does so I put in the disk that came with my mobo, but it's unable to find any drivers. I tried downloading drivers from my motherboard's web site, sticking them on an external HD, and locating them from there, but that still didn't work.
I checked in my BIOS, and my SATA type is under Native IDE. I tried switching it to AHCI, and my HD was no longer detected in the BIOS, switched back to Native IDE and it found it again. Also, Onchip IDE Channel is set to Disabled, and Onchip SATA Control is set to Enabled, does this matter any?
I was wondering,though, is it possible that if I set the SATA type to AHCI, move the SATA cables into ports so that the drive is recognized by my BIOS, use the AHCI drivers I downloaded, Windows 7 will detect it?
How to Install and Setup a SATA Hard Drive ?
