Inquiring Minds want to know... is your Drive FULL and how can you be sure it's not?

PLEASE review my reply! It's things you NEED to know... or, you are welcome to pay a Tech...

Many LARGER/OLDER/NEWER drives are cranked out SO quickly (larger and larger in GB) that they became almost "experimental"!

Also a NUMBER of mfg CHEAT by *super compressing files* as MUCH as possible ~ to CLAIM more drive space than there actually is. I KNOW! This is PART of the reason and need for LARGE hard drive BUFFER Memories (to assist in decompression)!

MOST compressed files NEED to be 100% OK to deliver the original info back... a few clobbered chunks/blocks and sometimes BITS of data are enough to generate error reports'... and sometimes never able to recover your original data!

Here is PART of the report from the Link:
"...on-the-fly disk compression utility works automatically without the user needing to be aware of its existence"... Of course this method SLOWS your drive down, but that's another issue.

AND MORE... it's a good idea to *always* BACKUP *everything*!

BACKUP your movie drive, then TOTALLY FORMAT it again. At this point DO NOT select the 'Quick Format' option... you want the FORMAT process to CHECK the MEDIA before it formats!

Any 'bad'/questionable/marginal areas on your drive SHOULD be (automatically) marked as 'bad'... your Drive SHOULD format around those spots! You will never see a report about them... Drives are made that way.

Of course CHECKDISK is another WONDERFUL option!

SOURCE: Hard drive replacement

SATA drives are the latest hard drives available nowadays. You could try going online and checking other sites that could still have an IDE hard available for sale.

SOURCE: How to Add an Extra Hard Drive Need more storage

From what i've read, it has a SATA hard drive with it. check the PC's Motherboard. If it has an IDE slot with it, then yes you can use it. But if not, you may need to purchase a new SATA HDD to use as an extra storage for your PC. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Image not as clear from HTPC on Samsung Series 5000 LED 55

Most PC video cards have their own adjustments for Color and Gamma corrections. I know exactly what you talking about. I have a similar setup and have seen the same problems. You should try switching the Color Gamut if possible. Television broadcast use the NTSC Gamut. A PC can have a predefined Gamut for any number of purposes and applications. Ex: Adobe has several for you to choose from. I hope this helps as a starting point for researching the problem, as I realize it is not a firm solution.

Send video files from pc to tv

you can watch video files from an external hard drive, to usb on your Tv, or ...if you want to send video playlists to your TV wirelessly, you can with "Samsung Allshare Software" of the internet installed on your PC...even if you dont have a samsung tv. be warned though, wireless bandwith may drop out watching high data transfers wirelessly, to your tv....an external hard dribe 4TB full of your video files connected to the Tv is your best bet buddy.

Windows 7 64 bit usb

Control Panel, Computer Management, Disk Management. Check that your Samsung disk is present. If it is present, does it have a drive letter assigned? If not Right Click and Assign Drive Letter.

If drive not present you should check power and data connections.

Hello! I recently bought a samsung portable

The software is telling you one thing and the Webmaster another. I would trust what the software error is saying to you. I can't even register my Samsung Tab 3 on their site, it asked me to enter the purchase date which I did, 11/16/13. When I tried submitting the form, I got an error telling me the Tab 3 was manufactured 11/30/13, making my purchase date incorrect. Really??!!! My Best Buy receipt didn't lie and I was there at the store that very day, and had purchased the Tab 3.

The problem maybe is that your T.V. does not recognizes large space of hard drive. You can try to use a smaller storage like USB Flash disk or Memory Card.

Problem with my new purchased LED 8 series Samsung flat TV, there is a thin line on the middle of the TV that change in different color. What is the caused of that problem, should I exchange it for a new...

I would take it back and get another one. If you can try and keep the little fly lead you get with it for the scart.

If you havent noticed but the samsung series 8 LED does not have standard scart ports on the tv at all. there little fly leads that plug into it and have a female type scart adaptor on it.

another good tip for you... Samsung have something called wise link pro there on the newer tv's like yourself. This is a little USB on the television that allows you to plug a Usb stick into it and play MP3 (music), Photo's and allows you to watch VOB, DIVX etc (downloaded films)
save a lot of time transferring these into dvd format etc. Just plug and play.

Note older Samsung has wiselink but not the PRO.... pro allows you to watch films if its not Pro your stuck with mp3, and photo's sorry!!!

hope this helps
