HDD and SSD Issues

I have two WD 3.6Tb external USB3 drives for backups and storage. These are both deffo HDD! I have discovered that they are TRIM enabled ... BUT, you don't trim HD's, do you??? I have had had trouble with them in the past due to increasing slowness and defragmentation. Sometimes Defrag Ultimate just couldn't finish a HDD defrag or gave up and stood still, but didn't crash either! Defrag Ultimate treats them as HDD's, but I am wondering if actually SSD Trimming them and then HDD Defragging them might solve or reduce my problems. But, I don't want to try this if I am going to damage them. So how should I treat them generally and within Defrag Ultimate

Confused.

I installed a 3 TB hard dive on my desktop. I can only use 2TB with Wndows 10. How can use all of the new hard drive?

Wie finde ich Password für BIOS Einstellungen?

Is there an easy fix to get rid of an HDD 100% issue. Tried resetting RAM limits.

What does "Parameter in poor condition and requires attention' mean and how do I fix it please? Cheers, James

Hi

Cool software and company. Thanks for your time.

Someone mentioned I should use this, but also said, in accordance with info online, that "defragging" an onboard SSD will cause issues. I'm directly confused by this and would appreciate some guidance on what is correct here.

Thanks again.

mysteriosly at some time this drive got extra partition. it originally had terbyte. I install seagate disc wizard, which recognized the second partition, but when I asked it to delete the partition it did not nor did it explain why not. of course when I asked windows 10 to format the drive, it only formatted the first partition (only 4gb). I want only ONE partition at this time

so i have ran check disk a few times on a external hard drive to see if i can possibly repair the thing and if not recover some things that are still on it. windows does not recognize the drive but 3rd party software does, so as i'm running check disk it sees one bad sector like at somewhat of the begging of the scan then it continues and runs almost to the end of the scan but does'nt qiute finish the scan, instead it suddenly stops, the screen goes black for a second and then it reboots windows and thats it. no log of what happened at the time of crash or the condition of the drive or the end result...nothing. so i'm wondering if you can shed some light on the situation and maybe some remedies if any? thanks, cweklund

P.S. under device at the top of this inquery what I choose does'nt apply to my question i just had to put something there so it would send. this is in regards to an external drive i have.

Bom dia,
Tenho uma unidade SSD externa que não esá sendo reconhecida pelo gerenciador de arquivos e nem pelo gerenciador de discos mesmo tendo feito os procedimentos básicos.

my hard drive keeps chattering windows 10 can you help??????

Drive is 81% fragmented and disk defragmenter does not defrag, just states completed. How to get the drive to defrag/optimize?

Последнее время стал сильно греться жесткий диск хотя запустил комьютер 20-30 минут назад, а уже хоть руки грей

I have about a dozen 2.5" & 3.5" SATA HDs, no bigger than 4TB that I have been using for years without issue. They are used in conjunction with via a WAVLINK eternal docking station, holds 2 drives" to USB. Recently, one HDs, 3TB one, when I tried to use it, I got an error message, "invalid parameter", "drive is not accessible or corrupted" or something like that. So I used the DSK command in Window 11 and it showed up as a "healthy drive" but showed up as "RAW" (needed to be formatted basically of course) instead of NTFS as it should be. I took this situation to be a fluke but just now, with two 4TB drives in at the same time in the docking station, the same thing happened TO THEM BOTH. I had them connect to my laptop for several hours then suddenly got the "drive not accessible" error.  Same issue as before basically and back to RAW. Correct me if I'm wrong but does this very likely indicate that the docking station is creating this problem all of a sudden? It's either that or my laptop is sending something out to the drives that is causing this. Give me your opinion. My bottom question is, I'm assuming the MBR got corrupted or disappeared, of course there could be something else but it's been a very long time since I have messed with HDs on this level. Is there any way without having to send the drives out to have them professionally recovered, something I can do myself at home to re access the drives normally? Thanks in advance, Jim.

WHY DOES IT SAY I HAVE A LEAST 1.9 TB

I'm evaluation BoostSpeed and one of the ways that it will save me 3Gb of disk space is to do a Disk Defrag. My hard drive is an SSD and I thought that defragging an SSD was not advised by several well known industry experts. Please explain - Thank you!

私の使用している機種は、デル製　Insupiron 5490 AIO、デバイス名 DELL2021、プロセッサ　 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10210U CPU @ 1.60GHz 2.11 GHz、実装RAM:8GB、Windous 10 Homeの21H　です。
旧機種からの移行時、アプリを多くコピーしたため、Cドライブの空きが少なくなり、自分なりに不要なアプリをアンインストール、大きなデータをＤドライブに移しました。しかしながら、容量221GBに対し、空きが14GBと少なくなりました。どのような作業業をすれば、空き容量を多くできるのでしょうか？

Добрый день, подскажите пожалуйста можно ли делать дефрагментацию через вкладку дефрагментация. Я подключила оптимизацю SSD, но не совсем поняла можно ли, и стоить дефрагментировать SSD. И если можно, то как часто стоит это делать.

Problem Devices
RAID Controller, PCI\VEN_11AB&DEV_6440&SUBSYS_644011AB&REV_02\4&15442326&0&0008, Device drivers are not installed


I am using SSD drives in an old Lenovo C20 ThinkStation, designed to run servers, as a standard PC
Do I still need to enable RAID Controller in this device.
Should I disable it, or install the drivers as requested

Recently, my computer stopped being able to access my External Hard Drive. I've restarted, changed USB sockets, tried it on my Windows 7 Notebook - where it works fine. Your Disk doctor has Defragmented it and your Disk Doctor reports that it has errors but no option to fix them.

normalement les SSD n doivent pas être défragmenter .... comment désactiver la déframentation sur votre logiciel

merci de votre réponse codialement
