Masters standardization program in the net after the release of Victoria, because the use of the program effect is very good, so there are a lot of users start using this program, of course, these Users not only network-dimensional master of users, other products have also added to the network users to master the family among the peacekeeping, but also lack some of the quality of the user because there is a problem to purchase the hard disk, resulting in frequent crashes software, games, second card and so on, Although the doors are very popular hard drive firmware,
moncler homme, but still not quite sure there are more users that it exists, so buy a hard drive in question, and also kept in the dark, hard day in question because of Internet users suffer from Shout
gate drive firmware because I am also one of the victims, so the doors before the firmware slightly knowledge, and so are known to exist today, summarizes the current firmware issue under the drive model and firmware version, to share to you, also hope to join to this post among the victims of their own history, the problem situation, and the post for the list of hard disk models, but there is suspected as the problem of hard disk firmware models reported up, to avoid re-purchase the hardware in question. -
-
Disclaimer: This article is intended to protect the interests of users is not compromised as much as possible, there is no malicious slander article mentioned the meaning of hard disk manufacturers, while the hard drive manufacturers were also hard to recall a firmware issue, but because some sales fail to promptly return to field problems led to 08 hard disk problem hard disk failure still have more supply circulating in the market, to the user caused a very great loss, here, too, hope that the quality of hard drives can check is good, do our best to provide users with a more stable product. -

Firmware door - Seagate -
use of existing hard disk firmware Bug phenomenon: in the course, the hard disk will be lost for no reason to respond, cause the system to get stuck a few seconds (time varies), then will automatically restore the same time, there is the following phenomenon. -
1: abnormal sound hard sound, hard drive, then hear the Ka Kaka in the power of voice, especially when reading data; -
2: loss of hard drive capacity, specific performance of the LBA value is equal to zero; -
3: using terminal communication found that users often use the area failed, the hard disk along with the sound; -
4: hard disk information with HDTUNE view, (05) re-allocation of the number of sectors of a red; -

Seagate official issued a statement acknowledging the existence of firmware issue of some products, and the problem is not limited to 7200.11 1.5TB products, including 1TB, 750GB, 640GB, 500GB, 320GB,
doudoune moncler homme, 160GB version 7200.11 series, and the Barracuda ES. 2, SV35 series, and Maxtor MiamondMax 22 series. Seagate said: hard drive problems are mainly manufactured in December 2008, but this problem does not cause data loss, but there will be short-lived Seagate officially given the affected product model as follows: -
But in official statements by the door of the firmware did not mention the product model in the 12th generation of Seagate hard drives, but in fact there are still individual 12 on behalf of the hard disk firmware door phenomenon, is not accidental. -

C1 Caton door - Western Digital -
Caton door hard to use the phenomenon: some of the books will be unusually high C1 watching movies, playing the card game Gordon cyclical phenomenon, and some hard drives will Disk with HDTUNE View more information, you can see the value of the current hard drive C1. -
-
-
First, what is C1? -
C1 is the head out of cycle count, which is the load / unload cycle. (In HDtune, everest or CrystalDiskInfo can see the value of C1) -
we all know, the hard drive heads to read and write data transfer is through the data on the disk to complete. In the course of their work, the disk head is not in direct contact with the disk, between a thin film of air,
doudoune femme moncler, this layer of air film is due to the high-speed rotation of the disk. If the disk stops rotating, the air film disappeared, the head will be in direct contact to the disc, which is no doubt the life of the disc and the data stored in this area caused by a bad influence. Therefore, in the early stages, hard disk manufacturers usually do on the surface of the disc of special treatment. -
-
but as people for the hard disk transfer speed and hard disk capacity growing demand, manufacturers need to continuously improve the disk's surface density, also asked the disc surface smooth as possible, which no doubt produced using the technology before the conflict, coupled with other factors, the hard disk manufacturers urgently need a new way to replace the head before the direct contact with the behavior of the disk. IBM's engineers then proposed a called Load / Unload technology. Simply put, Load / Unload technology a bit like old-fashioned jukebox, when the disc speed to reduce the air can no longer be produced when the film, it will rotate about the magnetic arm and head, docked next to the disk on a small slope. This completely avoids the direct contact of the head and the platter. -
Overall, Load / Unload technology is beneficial, such as to improve the reliability of hard drives: hard drives were hit when the head will not scratch the disk; can increase the areal density of hard drives: no need for the disc surface to do special processing, can provide a smooth disk; and can effectively reduce power consumption: low-power process repeated requests by Load / Unload time to reduce the rotation of the disc, or set the rotation time-out (spin down timeout ) to make the head on a regular basis to do Load / Unload and so on. -
Flash animation -

-
WD put forward its own set of GreenPower Technology technology, including the following three aspects: IntelliPower, IntelliPark, and IntelliSeek. -
which IntelliPark Technology: automatically unloading recording heads during idle to reduce aerodynamic drag, and separation of read / write channel electronics, lower power consumption. To save, WD default is not a continuous 8 seconds to read and write, let the reader into the parking area. The technology and the Load / Unload technology similar and, therefore, may lead to C1 value increases quickly. -
-
II, C1 value is high so what harm? -
Although the Load / Unload technology has many advantages, but there is no doubt that frequent the Load / Unload operations can cause head wear, the worst case, cause data read failure, can also cause a Kaka,
doudoune pas cher, In addition, video games and the phenomenon appeared in Caton. May be due to: the head request after reset when the program reads the hard data, the heads need to restart and addressed to the specified location, a process that will take some time, and the program will appear in this space of suspended animation phenomenon. -
-
III, C1 value of the number of hard drives will hang it? -
a Western Digital clearly marked on the product specification is 30W times. (Preceded by the article is 60W sub, there are screenshots, it is estimated that WD also aware of the seriousness of the problem, so the new document is 30W times 。)-
was reflected in more than 10w times as long as the C1, to occur Caton phenomenon. But some times reached more than 100 W is still working, some times less than 30W hung up, so can not determine the level of C1 when the hard disk will be linked. Similarly, in everyone's minds, seemingly WD green drive quality in general, this is perhaps the reason why, in fact, green disk is not bad, just use the IntelliPark this technology, leading to excessive number of head reset problems, want to come is also the kind done a bad thing. Also please do not too much -
-
-
present, I use the server hard drive more than 1 year, C1 w value has nearly 20 times, other times a disc has more than 20w, the models were used EADS and EVDS but at the moment what the problem was not, did not know 30w whether there will be after the issue again if there are problems reported. -

solution】 【proposed to replace: -
Fourth, how to reduce the C1 value? -
two ways, one is to directly modify the firmware in the hard disk parameters,
doudoune moncler, the other is the system is running with the software maintenance parameters. The following were introduced: -
a) through the WD tools to modify the official wdidle3. Specific methods can be seen here
advantages are: modification time, valid for life. -
-
b) the use of CrystalDiskInfo or quietHDD other software. -
advantages: does not modify the firmware parameters; specific APM value can be modified. -
disadvantages are: boot to restart the software. From the Load / Unload principle analysis tools, may cause the hard drive vibration, movement, collision, head abrasion increases the probability of the disk surface. -
because CrystalDiskInfo to be bigger footprint, so we choose quietHDD (thanks skywalker_hdu post
-
c) use quietHDD software. -
How: -
1, download quietHDD, unzip to any folder. Your own virus scanning. -

2, did not need to set up, run the software on the line. -
3, right-click the software will be sent to the desktop shortcut and then drag the shortcut method This boot or restart, the program will automatically run. -

five, APM, AAM and C1-
AAM: Automatic acoustics-management, the automatic sound management. Most of the hard disk noise and vibration because of their continuous operation produces heads, in other words in the same environment, the same higher speed hard drive, the more noise. To solve this problem, many companies offer a voice for the hard disk management, hard disk through the AAM of the regulation, in the quiet mode / Performance mode adjusted to meet the needs of users. That is the expense of some performance in exchange for silence. -
APM: Advanced Power Management, this refers specifically to drive advanced power management. To save, operate in the hard disk does not read the time, it will head reset. (This APM is not, and the nature of WD's IntelliPark a thing) -
APM (0 ~ 255) is set to 0, fully open, continuous 8 seconds is not hard to read and write heads will be reset; set to 255 to close the APM, the head In addition to reset the switch, the other time is not reset. -
AAM (128 ~ 254) is set to 128, said that due to lower speed, in exchange for silence; set to 254 said they did not reduce speed. -

64M cache disk: -
all hard-drive makers now increasingly prominent 64M hard disk cache, the first such withdrawal should be the Western Digital hard drive, but such a hard problem because of their technology infrastructure is not suitable for use in the windows5.x system, that is, xp or 2003, because the smallest unit of disk storage such as 512 bytes of data, and this hard disk is 4kb, so will produce in the course of the phenomenon is not compatible with the typical write speed performance is full, if the scattered written broken file more amazing speed to slow, but also directly affect the read speed, so we do not recommend using 64M cache hard drive, the specific reasons we can see next to my blog, too long, do not turn. When you are buying does not require special attention 64M cache disk model, just look at the technical parameters of the hard disk packaging described above can, as long as the 64M cache is not recommended to use. -
