Cannot Access Disk

OP-1 Help
1

I cannot access my disk anymore on my OP-1 :frowning:

It only reads but cannot be overwritten so I cannot put any assets into it anymore.

Does anyone know a new harddrive I can buy to replace the ones in the OP-1???

Thanks y’all :smiley:

@minorremedy There is no harddrive inside the OP-1, it used flash memory only. You could try the format option at the boot screen, that may help or it may make things even worse, like no letting you re-install the OS. The best option is probably sending an email to TE asking for advice.

@punji I formatted it couple of times and I can still update the OS but still the same problem everytime. I started getting these errors all the time before it stopped working.

Heartbroken :frowning:

Thanks for the suggestion tho

I’ve gotten that error before (and know how to recreate it). I did a factory reset and all was fine. Did not format the disk though. Have you checked to make sure the disk isn’t set to “read only” in your computer’s settings?

Wow so wierd… I swear I was about to turn this thing into Teenage Engineering. So I let the whole thing sit for awhile untouched. Yes I did a couple factory resets and formatted the drive. It started to not turn on and I had to put the switch back and forth.

Well I had some small piece I was going to do with it the night before so had to scramble to come up with something else to play. Oh well I guess this works out. Wanted to preach the awesomeness of the OP-1 although :slight_smile:

remember format and factory resets are slightly different. My policy is a new session = dump all data and format…

i have a similar problem, my op-1 displays this message,(i can’t read it entirely, as my screen is also damaged ) “____ disk\ filesync_comm then something 2d/ missing source file/yaffs2/audio/preset_drum/user///borden volca.raw” and the usual boot error message of

0x10 etc.

here’s a photo of the message

I have the same problem. I get an error saying “Mac OS can’t repair disk ‘No Name’. You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can’t save changes to files on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can.”

Did reformatting the disk help?
