2475ea Pavilion P6: Second HDD Pavilion P6-2475ea

I want to add a second disk of 2 TB, the same size as the first.

Physically I have no problem.

1. it is possible on this system?

2. is there any manufacturer of restriction?

3 assuming Sata III 7200 RPM, are there settings (bios) UEFI, or could it be detected automatically?

I would be grateful to hear of someone who has done this or knows the details.

Thank you

No, you can use all the USB ports at the same time. There are two USB ports on the back panel and then a USB connector on the motherboard to feed the front ports. I'm not sure that the front ports are USB 3.0, they could be USB 2.0.

HP could clearly built extra berries and frankly if you want to extend the thing buy a $50 (case) aftermarket computer case and move all the guts on him so you can have all the berries you want. I've already warned against trying to mount the hard drive bays.

The card I have seen that it is a 300w PSU that should be good for adding a second hard drive.

    I want to know, if in my laptop is the place for the second hdd? I can't find a plug about it on the site

    There is no profit. It is what it is. A SATA M.2 connected via the same port as a 2.5 inch SATA SSD will perform about the same. If your laptop computer has the necessary hardware to install a 2.5 inches WHAT SATA SSD, but you would have to buy additional hardware to operate a m2 drive the and you will get nothing in performance. Seems an easy decision what to do.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - can I add a second HDD?

    Hi Forums,

    I have an A300 PSAGDA-02000R and was wondering if it is possible to add a second HDD to it. After I removed the Panel to inspect where the second HDD going, I discovered that there is no connector, so I was wondering if you bought or have Toshiba install a second series of connectors?

    any response would be great

    Thank you F1R3F1GHT

    Hello

    > where will the second HDD, I discovered that there can be no connector
    That means that you can add a second HDD. That's fact!

    The fact is that all the A300 models using the same case but if you can connect a second HDD it according to the motherboard. This connector is attached to this topic and you can therefore add one such connector.

  • Satellite X 205-S9349 - second HDD are not bootable

    Hi all.
    I encountered a very strange error: my second HDD are not bootable, but only on my note (have 2 hard drives and I have installed Vista on the first and XP on the second). It worked well for about year.

    And once I worked in Vista, I've just going to boot XP and restarted just the note and it did not start more than just initialization on the post screen. It initializes everithing is nice and I can even manage BIOS but goes no further.

    After that, I tested each part if it does not my notes to start and this is the second HARD drive. I have tried to swich my HARD drives, but it does not work. Two SATA connectors work although I tested with the first HARD drive. If I comment on second HARD drive in BIOS, the system starts up nice, I can see the second HARD drive and work with it.
    But if this is not comment system does not further thant post-test after it initialized everithing!

    The strange is that it works well on my desk. Not a single problem with this HARD drive, I installed XP on it and it starts ok.
    I tried to format the HARD drive, in order to kill and create the partition, even to write own mbr... None of it worked)
    It still won't go note during an office is ok.

    Pls if people if anyone can help me with a post serious ideas here or send me an email - [email protected]

    Thank you

    How did you choose which OS should start?
    You use a boot manager?

    I have the Satellite Pro P300 with two hard drives (each with two partitions). On the fist one I installed Windows XP Home edition and Vista second. When I start my Windows laptop boot manager asks me what operating system I want to start.

    How it worked on your laptop?

    Hi mate,

    is this possible?
    There is a place for him but no sata connection on the motherboard where can I find this connector

    No you can not install the second HDD because there is no connector on the HARD drive that would be impossible to connect the HARD drive to the mobo.
    And no, it of not possible to upgrade the mobo with this connector.

    The X 200 has two HARD drive bays because certain X 200 support 2 hard drives and some don t support.

    Is there no second controller HARD drive then you will not be able to add the second HDD.

    Your laptop seems to have the same coverage, but the card mother doesn t support two hard drives.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - how to install a second HDD?

    Hello

    I would like to install a second hard drive to my Satellite Pro P300-1F1.

    I would like to know if I need a "cellar" special to set the hard drive inside the Bay? Where could I get such a thing in Germany (near Cologne)?

    On the inside of the drive Bay cover HARD are four plastic pins that are so long that it is impossible to close the cover when a hard drive is built in.
    What I have to just shorten or do I need a new cover or pins work like a kind of attachment?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Is there a connector from the HARD drive in the second span?

    If this isn't the case, then you can not install a HARD drive in any case. The second span is because he shares a common design with models that have a second HDD of the factory.

  • Adding a second HDD internal on a Satellite A350-20s

    I have a Satellite A350-20s.
    It is described in literature as having the possibility of adding an internal hard drive 2 "5 second and indeed it is a spot reserved for him...

    The problem is that when I remove the cover to insert the hard drive there is no connector.

    So, how to do?

    Hello

    Some of the units can be updated with a second HDD Satellite A350 and other laptop models. But this means that NOT all laptops offer the opportunity to upgrade
    There are different A350 with different hardware specifications
    All mobile phones support the same substantive coverage but not all motherboard supports a second HARD disk controller and the connectors.

    Your A350 cannot be upgraded with a second HDD due to the different motherboard and the missing HARD drive controller.

  • Satellite A305-S6843 - recovery disk anli Does the second HDD too?

    I have two TRUE separated different hard disks inside (200 GB each).
    I got to a point where I have to start all over again... If I want to use the recovery disk, that I had with the laptop. but then I get into a stage where I can choose "erase the hard drive.

    My question is: will it erase ONLY the reader of the OS (c :))? or also in the other drive (d :))?
    I have a lot of files in the second drive, I want to keep.

    Thanks in advance,
    Ofer

    > Recovery disk does not erase the second HDD too?
    MOM restore disk will delete all data and partition on the first HARD disk.
    All the data saved on the second HARD drive are safe and will not be affected.

    I have Satellite Pro P300 with two hard drives and I tested it several times.
    If you have important data on the first disk HARD just moving to the second HARD drive and install the OS by using Toshiba recovery image.

  • I could use a second HDD in my Qosmio F50-108

    I could put a second HDD in my Qosmio F50-108...

    What should I be careful?

    What HARD drive to buy?

    Thank you...

    Post edited by: dpasinis

    I doubt that this is possible.

    As I m not wrong not the F50-108 belongs to the series of PQF55E and verification of this series of models, I found and the info that this laptop supports a 320 GB (5400 RPM) SATA HDD but it doesn t support the second HDD.

    However, I would recommend checking the bottom of the unit. Is there a possibility for an upgrade of the HARD drive then you should find a second HARD drive with a SATA HDD connector Bay.

  • Can satellite A300 - 15 M - I install a second HDD?

    Hello.

    I have a SatelliteA300 - 15M. 2 years ago, I bought the laptop. I have the 250 GB hard drive that came with the laptop. Recently, I received my laptop in service of the local store. I noticed that there was an additional location to another hard drive. I saw a post that some of A300/A305 laptops have room for a second hard drive, but not the connectors.

    If someone has A300 - 15 M can they please tell me if I can install a second internal hard drive in my model? Is there a safe way to find if I can install a second hard drive?

    Hello

    > but no connectors.
    If the case is clear: If you don t have a second SATA connector, you can install a second HDD of the t.

    Also check the forum on these issues. The point is that a notebook series (e.g. Satellite A300) is always equipped with the same case, but the material is different. So not all models have the same features. ;)

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 and the second HDD bay

    Hallo, I want to install a second internal HDD to hdd2 Bay, but when I opened the Bay I noticed that it is not all connectors installed.
    So, what's the point of a second drive Bay hard if there are no connectors inside?

    Hello
    The point of this Bay is, IF you buy a model with a second equipped HARD drive then there will be a connector, but if bought a model with a SINGLE disc fitted then you just need a drive since the connector to the second HDD was not soldered on the motherboard of your model.

    Easy and simple. If you want to have a second drive, then you must either:

    -solder a connector for the motherboard which causes your warranty and does not mean that you can use a second drive since you will need the appropriate BIOS Rom
    -buy a USB - HDD and accept your situation :/

    That's all.
