Support / External HDD causing delay
« on: Friday, August 22, 2014, 11:36:36 AM »
Just wondering if anyone has ever experienced this "problem" that I'm having.  I have an external 3TB HDD connected via usb 3.0 that is just for backing up stuff.  One of it's features, like most externals im assuming, is that it sleeps when its not being used.  Which is fine and all, I can wait the few seconds for the disk to spin up when i want to access that drive.  But the weird thing is that for some tasks, like simply emptying the recycling bin, I sometimes have to wait a few seconds for the external to spin up before the trash can be emptied.  Not a huge deal, but just curious whats going on.

ok i had no idea it was that simple just to plug it in an be able to see everything. I did just that and saved all the necessary files.  seems like every file is accessible when i was clicking around. 

do you think i should wipe the drive clean and install windows fresh on it and nothing else? or throw that shit away

i actually just got to a point that ive never gotten to before.  I put the bad drive to boot first, then i booted from the CD, it loaded files, windows logo, then now im at system recovery options where i can startup repair, system restore, system image recovery, windows memory diag, and cmd prompt.

is there some way i can use the cmd prompt to transfer files over to my external via usb?? is that a thing?

so what im thinking of doing is installing windows on the good drive.  that wont erase that drive right? Then once i have that settled ill try to get the bad drive to respond.

On another note: do you think I should buy a small ssd and install windows on that? make it only a boot drive.  or would it be wiser to spend a little more money on a larger ssd and put my files on there and windows on a regular hdd?  does anyone use ssd yet? or are they still too expensive?

yeah im starting to think its dead. but i dont understand how it can be dead and still spinning and humming?? unless dead just means it cant read and write stuff...

also how do i plug it into another computer and copy the files if the drive is dead?

Ive been booting with the disk and have been getting to a screen similar to this but with different options like windows setup[ems enabled], and x64 recovery mode[ems enabled]:



by hitting f8 I can get to this screen (except for the repair computer option):



safe mode only gives me a black screen with a cursor

Looks like you caught some virus which affected the MBR by modifying the partition table.
Get some tool like acronis disk director free from another pc, create a boot disk and
reboot your pc with that disk. Once in the menu go to repair master boot record, that should do it.
If not, my guess would be that the critical amount of uncorrectable sectors has been reached
and your drive has given up, or the mbr lies now on such a sector. In that case i hope you
imaged your drive somehow, otherwise you won't come around of installing everything new.

Hope it helped.
Dont worry man i saw it.  Just trying to fix with what I have first.  Dont have any blank dvds at the moment

so none of that is working...probably going to put the windows 7 disk.

also lets keep in mind that I have 2 HDDs:
1) WD no windows (Good one)
2) Seagate with windows (Bad one)

would it be wise/possible to install windows fresh on the WD in a different partition or something?

ok I found the screen that spanky showed and it was on IDE. I changed to AHCI and restarted.  Unfortunately I still get to the "Reboot and select proper boot device..." error but a few seconds later i get another message underneath saying "A disk read error occurred Press crtl+alt+del to restart"

I finally have my hands on a windows 7 disk by the way. 

my next step will be to restart and see if anything changes.  then Ill switch some sata cables around again.  then ill put that disk in.

Actually, dude, has your controller designation been changed in the bios? Go into your bios and see if it's currently set to AHCI, RAID, or IDE. Let us know which one it's set to, and say whether you knew it what it was set to before. For SATA, it should be AHCI.
im in my bios and there are no options like that.  I have the asrock 970 extreme3 btw and it uses this "user friendly" ASrock EUFI setup utility.  Its SATA so it should be AHCI i guess. Never had a raid configuration.

In this picture where it says "SATA:..." or "RAID:...", in my case it says SATA.  But in my boot options that HDD with windows doesnt even show up. 




I should have my windows 7 disk by tomorrow, then I will boot from that and give the cmd prompt a try.
