Add 2nd HARD drive to Time Capsule - best practices?

• Adding a hard drive to Time Capsule will increase storage space

  I have one capsule 3 TB and and get time capsule backup fails due to lack of space.  I have connected a 2 TB hard drive to time Capsule.

  But what will happen now?  Time machine will share back up to two discs automatically.  Or do I have to put something else.

  You can't just add a player... TC has no brain at all... A normal NAS could JBOD configuration... in the TC, they are now and forever two separate discs...

  What you need to do is to move one or more backups on the drive you plugged in.

  The method for this depends on what you are trying to achieve... but you should be able to copy a sparsebundle existing since the internal drive of TC on the USB drive... the best way to do it is by ethernet wireless off and the USB (USB3, I hope) plugged into your Mac USB3 port.. The worst possible method using wireless for the USB connected to the TC.

  Once you copy the sparsebundle delete the original from the internal drive of TC to create space... then configure the TM in the computer that has the sparsebundle so that it points to the backup now on the USB... This may or may not work... but TM will say that it will start a new backup... what you hope, is that he picks up the existing sparsebundle and she continues to make TM backups.

• How to add 2nd hard drive; first is full

  5.7 LR used on an iMac with a catalog and images at this point on a single external hard drive.

  Now that the drive is close to full so a second drive ready to go.

  I need advice on how to proceed. I think my options would be:

  1. continue with the same catalog but speaking to 2 hard drives (possible or not?) The rest catalog where it is on Drive 1 or move it to the new Drive 2?

  2. create the catalog on the new hard drive where the new and future pictures are stored. In this case, when I want to see/manipulate the older images, I have to open the older catalog, I guess, and there is no way to have all the images of these two albums "visible" or accessible at the same time.

  I hope that I've explained this well enough. Appreciate any advice, thanks.

  Well your post on the space available on disk 1 is revealing. You have simply not enough space on disk 1 to copy whatever it is him. This includes new writing entries in the LR catalog file. you need to move things off disc 1. Do not move images unless you do only from Lightroom.

  But there are probably tons of things on disc 1 that can easily and safely, move to the new drive or even removed completely.

  Never fill a disc. Always allow free to at least 10-20%.

• Airport Extreme, Time Capsule best practices configuration

  I searched for articles showing exactly what are the settings that I would see in my Airport Extreme Time Capsule. I put in place of the years before, but more recently WIFI was slow or choked several times a day. Our internet service provider recently upgraded its network, even though they claim that any slowdown is not their problem. I made sure the Time Machine backups do not cause them selfs. The Capsule is connected via CAT5 to the modem. All devices can connect wirelessly to the network.

  Base Station name is unique. Network is not hidden. Password is super strong. Wireless security is WPA/WPA2 Personal, just in case the older devices need to connect. In the window of the wireless Options, 5 GHz network name is disabled. 2.4 and 5 GHz channels is set to automatic. Router mode network is DHCP and NAT.

  I don't know if we're even using the 5 GHz mode. I want to make sure that we are optimizing on the installer. Any help is very appreciated.

  Wireless security is WPA/WPA2 Personal

  It's bad... AC is optimized to WPA2 and you will suffer significant slow down with WPA1. Even if your TC is former model Wireless N, that customers with AC wireless cards will not work as well.

  Use an AP gradually charge for older clients N or G... almost nothing today will be limited to the WPA1 unless it is very old and very slow.

  Name of the 5 GHz network is unchecked. 2.4 and 5 GHz channels is set to automatic. Router mode network is DHCP and NAT.

  The Apple 2.4 ghz speed limit... and always have.

  You will get the wrong speed on 2.4 ghz and is therefore the only way to improve the speed force customers to 5 GHz that can usefully use it.

  Check the 5 GHz range and give it a different name for the principal name wireless... It's the only way you can force clients to use the 5 GHz.

  How old and exactly which model is the TC? The base A1xxx please if you do not know.

  Age affects things. Routers wireless for some reason any servant of quality have a service life of about 3 years... the TC is actually worse than average... being more stressed to the load of the hard drive.

  I made sure the Time Machine backups do not cause them selfs.

  You actually turn off TM? Sometimes the TM always works, even when people think it's the start.

  more recently WIFI was slow or choked several times per day

  It's what I expected with TM still working on a computer.

• Adding 2nd hard drive for Dell E310

  Hello

  I recently made some updates to my E310 and, until I got to the point where I was adding the second hard drive, everything went well.

  First of all, nobody in my local computer store knew of the blue Paw was to add 2nd hard drive; They suggested screw. This isn't the first hard drive I have installed, even if it is the first in my Dell. After my third attempt of Googling, I struck gold - a post in the forum explaining that support is needed and a telephone number to order. I am so grateful for this response.

  I read in similar positions and before putting the drive in I want to understand what is needed after the physical installation. This player will not hold the OS (XP Media), but held the whole image, music, and various files. Still must the player be partitioned and formatted using disk management I read in another post? I understand that I must go into the Bios to activate the second hard drive, so to speak. Is this similar to enter the CMOS? Would you be able to provide clear instructions?

  Is there anything else I should do to get the new HDD to be operational?

  Thank you for your time and thanks to the person who posted this phone number.

  CS.

• HP pavilion G4-2201tu: Add a 2nd HARD drive using CD/DVD optical drive Bay

  Hi ch, I, m going to add a 2nd HARD drive of my laptop bu using Bay, CD/DVD optical drive, so I don't know if the connection of optical drive supports SATA 2 or SATA3? And where I can buy a Bay for disk HARD 2 (good quality)? TKS a lot!

  There is that some members have used and reported success with third party products. I can't recommend any particular HARD drive caddy product as I have no personal experience using one. I can provide you with a URL so you can decide for yourself. I will update with more sources as I find them.

• You attempt to add a 2nd hard drive

  I have a HP Pavilion Elite HPE 510 t. I try to add a 2nd hard drive. The 2nd hard drive is a Toshiba 1 TB 7200 RPM 6G.

  Accordingly, the 1st HDD was plugged on SATA2 and the CD-ROM was connected to SATA1. It worked and it started ok.

  I added the 2nd hard drive, plugged on SATA3, went into the BIOS Setup and it has not even see SATA3.

  I then plugged the CD-ROM on SATA3 and the 2nd hard disk on SATA1 and lit, is went into the BIOS config amd saw 2 hard drive and a hard disk 1, it did not see the Wired CD SATA3. Then I tried SATA4-nothing.

  I have advanced and partitioned and formatted the hard drive into two partitions 2 and recovered the data from a backup on each partition.

  It works very well, with both devices, but nothing I have connect SATA3 or SATA4 is recognized by the BIOS.

  Can someone tell me why? is there a jumper on the system board or a setting in the BIOS that turns on SATA3 and SATA4?

  Are my bad SATA3, SATA4?

  I've seen the specifications for hard disks. He is said to use a 1 to 3G 7200 RPM. IS the fact that I use a 1 to 7200 RPM 6 G the cause? Even with the hard drive 2 disconnected and hard drive 1 SATA1 or 2 and SATA3 or 4 CD, it does not yet recognize the CD-ROM drive.

  I tried to pass autour SATA data cables, but it has not changed. Anyone know why the system will not recognized the connected CD-ROM SATA3 or SATA4?

  Or whatever it is well plugged SATA3 or 4? I can run both hard drives, but then I don't have a CD-ROM drive, or I can run a hard drive and a CD-ROM drive, but not 2nd hard drive.

  Any suggestions? I know choose IDE used to have to set a date for the cable, but I don't think that SATA requires that.

  Am I wrong?

  I bought a $70 ServerSupply.com motherboard, succeeded him and it solved the problem.

  Someone here even suggested, but me. I forgot what email I signed up for this site.

• Add the old computer as as 2nd hard drive to new XPS 8700

  Hello

  My old computer - Dell Vostro 410 just stopped working so I now have a 8700 XPS.

  My problem is that there are some files on my old drive hard vostro that I need. He has been using Windows 7 and the hard drive, I have upgraded to a Western Digital Black Caviar 1 TB SATA.

  But the new '' runs on Windows 8.1.  I can't upgrade the old hard drive to the old computer died. Someone at - it ideas how I can get my info from my old to my new drive?

  I tried to install the old disk until the 2nd hard drive but the system does not recognize it.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you

  Hello and yes I have an answer.

  Also, I had a second drive win 7 ult and it went out to install in my new 8700 XPS thing is that I already formatted the disk to work to the point 8.1. He came to light, a UEFI system installed, may fail to start if a secondary drive is attached that contains logical partitions. Of course, this should be an MBR disk configured, but if it has at least one primary and one extended partition, it will stop Windows 7 and Windows 8 start.

  To correct this test facility 2nd main drive, then use a boot disk to get the computer running then access the disc to remove files.

• DV7-4280us - Bay of disk HARD 2nd vacuum has no visible connection to a 2nd HARD drive.

  My laptop Pavilion DV7 and previous DV8 had two bays for HARD drives, one of them wired to a hard drive, but not containing is not a hard disk at the time of purchase.  I expect the same thing when I ordered this Pavilion DV7-4280us, which is, I think, made in China, but I have not the same.  This one came without visible connectors for the hard drive, I had already bought to install into the empty Bay.  My Technical Support call made me advice to buy a disc kit hard (with caddy & connections) from HP, as if the receive connectors were available in the drive Bay HARD vacuum.  I didn't not agree because (and the next two paragraphs I added so that the well-intentioned forum members continue to give me the standard answer for laptops which actually have the usual connectors & waiting in the drive Bay HARD 2nd vacuum.  I appreciate the two forum members who have offered help so far, but there is no need to waste more based on my failure to clarify the problem):

  There is NO METAL NAKED INTO THE BAY VOID that COULD CONNECT a HARD disk.
        UNLESS A NEW CONNECTOR GOES TO THE MOTHERBOARD HARD DRIVE, IT IS USELESS FOR THIS COMPUTER.

  Each HARD drive connector I've seen only connects the HARD drive to a connector in the HARD drive Bay.
  

  The connector of the latter reaches the motherboard, and that the connector does not exist in this 2nd computer HARD disc Bay.
  

  Even if I could get a cable to connect a HARD drive to an unused connection & waiting on the M-Board, I can't M-Board.  M-Board is inside a barrier which could be called the bottom of the laptop - external surface of the portable computer.  (Battery and bays for HARD drives are outside the confines of the current computer, the value in their own hollow spaces in the bottom panel, with secondary coverage on the hollow spaces, i.e. the bays for HARD drives and storage media).  I looked for a way really open the casing and expose the M-Council connection for 2nd HARD drive (IF it exists); but I didn't know how to do it.  It is clear to me that this is not intended to be a facility run by the user. But I would if HP (or maybe even a 3rd party who made it) provided some good instructions.

  I'd like to think that HP did not make this change to the line DV7 laptops to double HARD drive, and that the Chinese manufacturer made the change without approval or even knowledge of the management of HP.  I want to believe that because he was, at best, a really stupid thing for HP to the customers who pay for the best HP can provide.

  So my questions are the following:

  1. The motherboard in this computer still has the ability to manage a 2nd hard drive?
  2. If 'NO', then HP would be willing to take over this very disappointing computer in Exchange to a DV7 which is equipped with HARD drive connectors available in the 2nd, empty, Bay?
  3. If 'YES', then
  4. HP or someone else would be willing to provide connectors, and instructions for me,
  5. OR install the missing connection to the drive for me, Bay
  6. While, in both cases 4 or 5, I can install a HARD drive in the Bay, empty 2nd drive reasonably, I expected when I ordered this computer?

  All my apologies and thanks to KaLin0908, who responded so quickly and helped me realize that my original description was not clear enough.  I hope that my changes to clarify the problem have not ruined the tone of my call.  I'm aiming for "clear and grateful."  If this revision reads as Loud or Yelling or abrasive or anything else bad, I'd appreciate any suggestions to improve it.

  I have the same computer.

  At first seems like you say but

  If you look carefully the second Bay of hd, you will see 4 small holes

  Those who are for the hard drive caddy, you can buy that and it's expensive

  You should also buy a hd cable, but be careful, there must be about 5 inches long

  The cable for 1 hard disk does not work

  One end goes on the hard drive and the other going to the MB. The connection is planned

  for the memory modules

  The kit costs about $ 45. If bought at hp and about 35 if purchased by another company

  http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&products_id=345

  This will give you an idea of where/how the screws connect to the caddy

  4. connect the hd to the caddy /ssd

  4. connect the housing inside the laptop
