Western Digital Elements External Hard Drive Disassembly
Sun, 17 Mar 2024 10:52:38 +0000

Hi. This is the only site that helped me, so I decided to write here about my result
My sister's children dropped the WD Ext HDD 1021 USB Device, after which it stopped working. I bought a new 500GB disk, connected it to my laptop via a USB 3.0 adapter, checked, created partitions and then inserted the USB Device into the WD Ext HDD 1021 instead of the faulty disk, but Windows 10 did not see the partitions. After opening the disk management manager, I received a request to initialize the disk. I confirmed it, but was denied access. Next, I booted into the LiveCD from a USB stick, but no programs there had access to the disk either
Later, I counted the firmware from the flash memory from the Oasis Desktop 1607P board, but I found new firmware only on closed forums, from where I could not download them
I tried connecting other drives to OASIS. Seagate didn't even spin up, but just the LED was blinking. Other WDS of different capacities were also defined without access-denied partitions.
Next, I found this website and a description of my problem. I reconnected my new 500GB WD to a USB 3.0 adapter. We've seen each other. Next, I booted from the LiveCD and launched Low Level Format for full formatting. (I found information here above that it was possible to do quick formatting). Then I moved the WD 500GB to the WD Ext HDD 1021 USB Device and access appeared. I've opened the partition and the disk is working fine.
If you do not have a LiveCD, it might be possible to erase the disk "0" with the help of the Victoria 5.35 program by checking the disk for erasing from DDD. It might help to simply delete all partitions before connecting to the WD Ext HDD 1021 USB Device, but I don't want to experiment anymore. So I lost a lot of time.
Thank you all!

Hart 20V Power Tools Battery Interface
Tue, 27 Feb 2024 20:18:26 +0000

I really don't care too much about the BQ26100 features. I really just want to use some other batteries with the HART tools. How would we go about doing that?

Idrive arm Locked before door is closed
Fri, 12 Jan 2024 23:49:18 +0000

See the instruction manual on how to adjust detent; section "Adjusting Detent" on page 21-22.

It sounds to me that, in your case, the arm is coming down too early. Adjust it so that the arm comes down later. Or adjust it so the arm stay locked in the up position.

I'm not sure. But I have four remotes, a light, an outdoor keypad, and a wall station attached to it. So that makes seven.

From other post I read as well as tested myself that resistance is different between B- and ID. Tools are able to identify which battery is connected to it.
Hope this helps.

How to Ensure microSD Card Is Not Fake!
Thu, 28 Dec 2023 06:00:26 +0000

SD cards are a popular storage medium for cameras, smartphones, and other devices. However, there are many fake SD cards on the market that can cause data loss and other issues.

When you purchase a SD card, it's best if you purchase from a retailer that has easy return process. Thus, if the microSD card turns out to be fake, you can easily return it for a refund. Amazon is a great place to buy microSD cards, if you have Amazon Prime due to its hassle-less returns.

Now, here are some tips on how to test whether an SD card is fake:

Test the read and write speeds: One way to test whether an SD card is fake is to check its read and write speeds. You can use a free tool like H2testw to test the SD card's read and write speeds. If the SD card's read and write speeds are significantly lower than advertised, it is likely to be a fake.

Check the capacity: Another way to test whether an SD card is fake is to check its capacity. You can use a free tool like H2testw to test the SD card's capacity. If the SD card's capacity is significantly lower than advertised, it is likely to be a fake.

Google Chrome Won't Install on Windows Tablet
Thu, 30 Nov 2023 22:13:30 +0000

Just tried to install Google Chrome on my Tibuta MasterPad W100 Windows tablet computer. But the installer says:

The installer failed to uncompress archive. Please download Google Chrome again.

I tried it several times and kept getting the same error message. I looked on Google's Fix problems installing Chrome support page, but none of the symptoms seem to match mine.

Anyone know anything about this issue?

Wayne Dalton idrive for Torsion Springs - Solution #1: Install Custom Upper Limit to Successfully Profile
Sat, 25 Nov 2023 06:48:55 +0000

I've moved my trusted Wayne Dalton idrive for Torsion Springs to a new garage with limited space for a tradition garage door opener. But when I went to profile, it did the open/close cycle once, opened the garage door again, but will not close it. Instead, it beeped four times. Based on the "Troubleshooting" section of the instruction manual, there are three possibilities:

  • Obstruction encountered.
  • Infrared sensor alignment.
  • Out-of-balance condition detected.

I eliminated infrared sensor alignment, because I watched the sensors and the LED is on. And I checked the balance of the door manually and it seems fine. So my guess is that the idrive thinks there is an obstruction. Seeing the motion, I am guessing the idrive is either having a hard time starting the motion when the door is on top or it feels the obstruction at the very bottom. I noticed that the idrive raises the door all the way to the top and it could require a lot of torque to start the closing motion. So I figured by setting installing a lower custom upper limit could help me identify the problem.

The "Install Custom Upper Limit Routine" steps are described on page 21 of the instruction manual. Using it during profiling, the idrive was able to complete the entire profiling routine successfully, identifying that the problem was the garage door being raised too high.
