MacBook Pro :: Seagate Momentus Xt 500gb Vs Standard 500gb 7200?

Oct 24, 2010

Will I notice much difference if I upgrade to the seagate m xt 500 gb with 32cache?

Baring in mind I havnt got my 17" i7 2.8 in the post yet..

I'm thinking I can install the new drive as soon as I get the Mbp and do a fresh install as I'm assuming I'll get the iLife disks with the laptop so I can install it? Aswell as the OS cd's too?

MacBook Air :: Realization - IPhone Storage Versus MBA Storage?

Jan 10, 2010

I thought I would share a cool realization. I am now eligible for any iPhone upgrades and most likely will be getting the new one coming out this summer - whatever it may be. I realized today that most likely it will have 64GB of storage - the exact same size as my Macbook Air - I think it is so wild my future phone/pocket computer will have the exact same storage capacity as my main laptop. I could potentially mirror everything on my Mac that is on my iPhone in the future.

MacBook Pro :: Are You Actually Supposed To Calibrate The Built In Battery?

Apr 24, 2010

I was under the impression that starting with the mid 2009 macbook pros you were not supposed to calibrate the built in battery when you bought it. In fact I looked in the 2010 macbook pro manual and unlike the previous macbook pros it does not say to calibrate the battery.

Applications :: All Music Supposed To Be ITunes Plus - Right?

Apr 12, 2009

Over the past few months, I've paid for iTunes plus upgrades as they've become available for the different albums I'd bought from iTunes. However, I just noticed that they now claim that all music is now iTunes Plus.. but I still have 127 purchased tracks in my library that are not iTunes plus. I looked up the music in the itunes store, and sure enough, it is iTunes plus there. How do I get itunes to upgrade these 127 tracks for 30 cents per track or $3.00 per album?

Hardware :: Isn't The ON Option Not Supposed To Spin Down When The Drive Has Not Been In Use For A While

Apr 18, 2007

I am not quite sure the difference between the AUTO and ON power options. When I have it set to ON the drive will power on when the computer powers on, power off when the computer powers off and it will spin down when it has not been used for a while. Isn't the ON option not supposed to spin down when the drive has not been in use for a while?

Currently the AUTO setting does the same as the ON setting. It powers on and off with the computer and spins down when the drive has not been used in a while.

Mac Mini :: Supposed To Come With A Mac OS X Install Disc/USB Drive?

Jun 15, 2012

I just got a new Mac Mini at work today. I noticed something missing from its small box. Is it supposed to come with a Mac OS X 10.7.x install disc/USB flash drive or something in case I ever need to reinstall, fix, etc.? I only got these items:

1. Mac Mini

2. DVI to HDMI adapter

3. Power adapter

4. White Apple stickers

5. A manual (didn't see any disc and USB flash drive in it?) 

If I am missing it, then I hope I don't have to return since I already set it up, installed a bunch of software, copy my data, etc.

OS X :: Exchange Server 2003 Supposed To Work With SL (CNet)

Aug 28, 2009

I read this article which explains that Exchange Server 2003 is actually supposed to work: [URL]

Exchange Support
Apple has built in support for Microsoft's Exchange Server 2007. This is what, on a PC, pushes and synchronises all your email, contact info and calendar entries to Outlook and your phone. By doing this, OS X's Mail, iCal and Address Book apps sync up just like Outlook. Note that if your company is still running Exchange Server 2003 (ours is), you will still be able to sync Snow Leopard with your office server. We confirmed this with Microsoft, a spokesperson from which said, "Correct -- it will work with Exchange Server 2003 as well." Our IT boffins here at CBSi confirmed this too. I know it's still early, but has anyone had any luck getting this to work? I'm about 30 minutes away from installing the $29 SL on my laptop. And I'm really hoping to have the ability to eliminate having a PC desktop on at work strictly for the connection to our exchange server 2003.

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Is It Install DVD Supposed To Auto-eject During Installation

May 8, 2012

I just recently purchased Snow Leopard and everything seemed to be going well. The installer popped up after I put it into my External DVD Drive and the installation was going smoothly but soon my MBP would restart and the installation would continue. The problem is that at around 35% completion, or in my case 32 minutes left, the disc would come out of the drive and any attempts to put it back in would result in the DVD drive promptly spitting the disc back out. 

I don't think it's the MBP that is at fault since I would have received an error message or something of the like. My only guess is that either the Installation DVD is faulty or the External DVD Drive is causing the issue. I'm leaning towards the DVD Drive especially since it suddenly stopped reading the disc entirely while I'm typing this. I'm using an AmazonBasics USB 2.0 8x DVD Writer External Optical Drive which should be fully compatible with Macs.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6)

MacBook Pro :: Best 500GB Internal HD?

Jul 31, 2010

I've searched the web for a couple of hours and found pretty conflicting answers. In short: I have a 2.53 GHz 15" Unibody late-2009 MBP and I need to upgrade my internal HD. What's the best one? It looks like the main choices are Seagate and Western Digital, but even within those, there are different model names (Momentus, Barracuda, etc...). Is one quieter than the others?

Also, what's the practical difference between 5400 and 7200 RPM? Does it depend on how heavy your usage is? I do run Parallels pretty frequently, so my computer does tend to get close to maximum CPU use.

Upgrading my 13" MBP hard drive with OWC's kit.

Should I get a 1TB @ 5400RPM or 500GB @ 7200RPM?
I'm guessing 1TB.

Also, is it safe to do the 8GB RAM kit?


I deal with video and motion graphics.

MacBook Pro :: Should A 500GB Harddisk Be More Noisy Than A 250 Gb?

Oct 8, 2010

I bought a MBP13 with a 250 GB. I noticed that the HD is a Seagate 250 GB 5400 rpm.

So i thought I would upgrade it to a Seagate 500 Gb 5400 rpm(Momentus).

Now the noise is noticeable. Not much, but you can hear it.

Should a 500GB harddisk be more noisy than a 250 Gb? I thought it would be the same. The only difference I saw between the two harddisk is that the old HD had a Apple logo on it.

Otherwise its the same brand and model, just with a higher capacity.

If I had upgraded at apple would I have been rid of the noise or is this just something that follows along with the higher capacity?

MacBook Pro :: Best 500GB 2.5" HDD Replacement

Jan 14, 2011

I'm looking to replace my stock 160gb 5400rpm drive with a 500gb drive 7200rpm. SSDs are just a bit too expensive at the moment. Looking around the Seagate Momentus XT seems to come top of all the reviews until you research a little more and find that there seem to have been loads of issues with them, esp on macs.

MacBook Pro :: New Seagate 500GB HD Won't Mount Via USB

Nov 2, 2009

I purchased a Seagate Momentus 2.5" Internal SATA 500 GB 7200 RPM hard drive. I put it into an external USB enclosure to clone my existing MacbookPro 160GB hard drive and then planned to swap them and install the new 500 GB HD. But when I plug in the external drive case, I do not see the Seagate drive mounted and cannot see it in Disk Utility either.

The external enclosure comes with a USB cable with two USB connectors to provide data transfer and power.
Any suggestions how I can mount this drive so I can clone the internal drive?

MacBook Pro :: Suggestions For 500GB Internal HDD?

Jul 14, 2010

Like the title says, what are your guy's suggestions for 500GB Internal HDD?
I don't mind having 5,400 or 7,200rpm and the cache size (16MB would be enough for me).
I read from other people's posts that some HDDs have slower boot time, more power consumption, drive failure, not booting, etc etc.

What is the perfect internal HDD 500GB for Mac? The only one I know is WD Blue Scorpio [URL] but I don't know if it's available around where I live.I am planning to partition 400GB for Mac & 100GB for Windows XP.
