Connect new drive, use Macrium Reflect Free to clone new to old, reboot and change boot order in BIOS to boot from new drive.

1) If nothing else, it's the principal of the thing. A trivial amount of effort/materials would make this conversation never occur. 2) Those end caps actually provided a lot of shock dampening. Pretty much exactly what a mfg would send you for return packaging during an RMA.

Anybody make any sense of this? WHS2011, and I just replaced 3x 2TB WD Red drives with 3x 3TB Reds. CrystalDiskInfo runs resident, and last night it started emailing failure notices across a variety of several drives. I've never seen a CDI BAD report due to a zero value in Spin-Up Time nor RSC (CDI is showing raw values in decimal).

Sir Unimaginative posted:It looks like it's mostly not returning SMART data at all. Eep.  Drive E: is now "Unknown" while drive G: is "Bad" I have these in a Stablebit Drivepool and have StableBit Scanner installed. It's been doing a full sector by sector scan, and drive E: completely passed and drive G: is 80% scanned without error. So, maybe the drives have firmware that's too new? Or something? Note that drives I: and J: are on a 3TB drive, like these new 3TB Reds, but it has the same firmware as my older 2TB Reds, 80.00A80, rather than what the new 3TB Reds have, 82.8200A82. Edit: WTF? I was just going back to CDI to check the firmware version when I watched the G: drive return to "Good" status!

Yeah, no problems. Just odd behavior. StableBit Scanner reports the same SMART status but doesn't bark about the drives. Must be some funky combo of these new drives, CDI, maybe my Z77 storage controller...

Do you mean with an Intel CPU/chipset but with an AMD GPU tacked on or with an AMD CPU/chipset and said 6470M? If the latter, almost definitely not.

Surely. Here is the first reading I did about bap caps when my Viewsonic went that way (at the 3.25y mark): http://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpost.php?p=66299&postcount=17 You probably should just buy a new one, but if you've got a soldering iron it's about $3-5 bucks worth of new caps and shipping... Makes for a neat Saturday project.

Patent. Molex had it first in the late 50s, then MATE-N-LOK made a similar connector. Anyone referring to any nylon connector other than the four pin old-school/IDE power connector as Molex, however, would be dumb.

FCKGW posted:CDI info in unnecessarily confusing to understand and I don’t fault anyone for not knowing how to read it. 1) It color-codes its info and summarizes with yellow "Caution" or red "Bad." Now, these could be considered subjective by the pedant, so... 2) Google can help Or, see also: 3) "We kinda all agreed on this" Not trying to be a jerk but trying to say that while asking for verification is what these kinds of forums are for, I don't find the results of CrystalDiskInfo hard to follow. Your statement is better paraphrased as, "SMART info is confusing, and therefore so is this info as presented in CDI, but, hey, luckily CDI gives you an edge that reading bare text SMART reports don't." My point is, poo poo that says Caution is rationally to be taken as cause for worry, and therefore teagone's take is correct.

There's something I've always wondered and could never quite wrap my head around enough to pull it off. Say you've got a Lenovo Server 2008R2 box with two 1TB hard drives in a Windows mirror (GPT, dynamic). Say the drive that's got the hidden 256MB EFI partition on it starts to fail... The picture below shows the server with the example, but with the secondary, healthy drive removed (and a tape drive attached). The server has already been replaced, which is why it's in this current state. How do you replace the primary drive (with its EFI partition) in a Windows mirrored pair? Short of trying out a $275 Macrium Server license, which claims to handle dynamic disks, what is the standard way to handle this situation?

How successful of a track record does anyone have with cloning a sole 2.5" SATA SSD to m.2 NVMe and maintain boot function, using Reflect or other? I've not tried and wonder if there's a roadblock, bootloader problem, etc.

Odd work project question: My coworker got his hands on a SuperMicro SYS-E100-9AP barebone PC, with the intention of playing with as a pfSense box, etc. However, we're now trying to get Windows 10 installed to see how far QuickSync on its Atom can be pushed by Blue Iris. We seem to be stupid, though, as we cannot source a storage driver to feed the Windows 10 installation process. Extracting all the archives on SM's product support site doesn't help, nor does Googling "Apollo Lake storage driver." Can someone guide me/us? I'd PayPal, say, $20 if it can be made to run Windows. (Mods, if that's a no-no, and I should take it to SA-Mart, just say so. )

Actuarial Fables posted:When you say "Extracting all the archives", does that include the CD w/ all the drivers for the motherboard? stevewm posted:https://www.supermicro.com/support/resources/OS/Apollo_Lake.cfm seems to imply it will only work if the SATA controller is set to AHCI mode, which makes sense as Windows 10 natively supports AHCI. Go into the BIOS and make sure this is the case. Looking in BIOS, the SATA Configuration menu options are Chipset SATA Enable/disable (it's Enabled) I can't find any settings for setting SATA/IDE/RAID, etc. I'm trying to install to either an NVMe SSD or an M.2 SATA drive. Both attempts produce the same results. The BIOS does have PCI Express options, with M.2 B Key PCIE GEN2 X1 as well as Mini PCIe, but both just have sub-entries of ASPM Auto and PCIe Speed, etc. Both the m.2 and NVMe drives show up in BIOS just fine. Edit: We've just now opened it up to get at its SATA port, and hanging an 860 EVO off there (powered by an external PSU) allows the Windows installer to install to the SATA SSD just fine. We've now tried Windows 10 in non-UEFI mode, tried installing from a DVD in a USB 2 and then 3-connected external DVD drive. What am I missing? (My comedy option here is to image the SATA SSD to either the m.2 or NVMe in order to close this thing back up.) Tapedump fucked around with this message at 22:34 on Aug 27, 2019 |

I get the UAC prompt, some process tries to start, and the only result is that another File Explorer window opens to C: root. Now, for the life of me I can't get the SATA m2 nor NVMe m.2 to show up in BIOS. There appears no setting to disable those, only to set their speed from Auto to Gen2 and so on. Only the SATA controller has an option to disable. Edit: Heh, tried the CD on a Windows 7 box.. same result. Tapedump fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Sep 2, 2019 |

Actuarial Fables posted:Don't extract the files, just mount the ISO. The executable is probably designed for a particular file structure and won't work properly out of its element. Hopefully after running the program and getting the drivers installed you'll at least be able to see the m.2 drive. But, I think I may have found out why I can only get this to work via SATA. The board is an A2SAN-E, which is in the second column of the OS compatibility chart: https://www.supermicro.com/support/resources/OS/Apollo_Lake.cfm  Note the second column doesn't have the C1 footnote, a very important one: A2 - i-SATA/SATA C1 - NVMe That being the case, I'm still confused as to why I cannot even use the m.2 SATA slot, it not being NVMe... Edit: Unless I'm misinterpreting this (JMP1): JMD1: M.2 Slot (B-KEY) (supports PCIe Gen2 x 1 / SATA / USB 2.0) JMP1: Mini PCI-E Slot (supports PCIe Gen2 x 1 / USB 2.0) Tapedump fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Sep 2, 2019 |
