• HP ENVY 17-j053ea hard drive locations

  Hi I am looking to buy the HP ENVY 17-j053ea, far specifications correspond to my needs, but there is just one thing I need to know.

  Does the laptop afore mentioned have a secondary HARD drive location?

  I have an old DV9000 series that has two slots and ideally, I would like to have a secondary home again as I require the storage capabilities without having to carry an external hard drive

  Thank you very much

  Hi Glenn,.

  Yes, the Envy 17-j053ea has 2 bays for HARD drives - see Pages 58/59 of the Guide maintenance &.

  If you intend to mount a second HDD, an example of the type of carriage and connection cable you need is on the following link.

• Adding hard drive to HP 6340f desktop

  I have a HP 6340f desktop to which I would add another hard drive.  The Office now has a 1 TB drive / Windows 7.  I added a model of HD Western Digital 1 TB WD10EZEX.  The new drive came with a "sata data cable' so I'll have to buy one.   If anyone knows what sata data cable I need to buy?  A number of real part would be great, but I'll be grateful for any help I can get.  A part number that I can trace Newegg or Best Buy would help.

  Thanks, Denny

• Pavilion 15-e034tx: hard drive locations no.

  I can't find the number of hard drive on my laptop (Pavilion 15-e034tx). Can I insert a laptop SSD inside?

  Hello

  It has a single location, if you want to add another hard drive or SSD maintains the current (hard drive) needs to use a shopping cart by removing the optical drive.

• Satellite P300D install second hard drive location

  I own a P300D, it has 1 location where sits the preinstalled hard drive and an another just like it the other side. but the plastic cover of the second slot has a bunch of plastic columns that block the slot if the plastic cover is used to close the slot.

  How we're supposed to fit a second hdd in there?
  Am I expected to by an another plastic cover?

  where can I get the metal frame to keep the hard drive correctly?
  The exact product names would be nice :)

  Thank you!

  Hello

  First of all, not all Satellite P300 models can be upgraded with a second HDD.
  Even if the second HARD drive Bay is available, you will not be able to insert a second HDD if the HDD connectors are missing.

  To verify if the connectors are available for this

• Pavilion 500 adding hard drive

  Bought a desktop Pavilion 500 computer last week.  Kind of disappointed with the documentation that comes with it, also disappointed with the documentaion on this site, just seems to have two manuals supplied with the computer, PDF files (but, maybe I'm not looking in the right place).  Nothing in the documentation provided with your computer that shows what the computer looks like inside, no info at all on the update of the computer (adding another hard drive - what memory?).  I open the computer and take a look to see what is inside, but the manual says that if I open the computer and break the security seal I certify that the computer was working properly until I tried to upgrade the computer, and if the security seal is broken it could screw up my warranty.  I think there must be space for another hard drive, but who knows.  I would like to install the IDE of my old computer hard disk, do not know if this is possible.  I know I can get a disk enclosure and connect it to a USB port, but prefer to install the drive in the computer (may be screwing up the warranty...).  If an IDE drive may not be installed on the computer, as it is, maybe some sort of a SATA to IDE adapter or card would work.  Anyone have any ideas?

  According to respondents, this adapter converts IDE drives to Sata port.

• Pavilion 500-098: adding hard drive, but no 2nd hard drive Bay

  I want to add a second internal hard drive to this computer, but unfortunately the computer has only a hard drive Bay. There is plenty of space for a second hard drive, I thought that I would put the player in the unused space, setting in place somehow so that it does not move. I know I could install an external hard drive, but prefer to have an internal hard drive. The power supply has a supplement of power supply (unused) harddrive.  The motherboard is a Joshua-H61-Μatx. It has 4 SATA connections on it.  SATA0 is connected to the hard drive, SATA2 is connected to the DVD player. SATA1 and SATA3 are free. My idea of adding a second hard drive without a second HDD Bay would work?

• Adding HARD drive problem

  Dear Sir / Madam

  You can use dynamic disks Windows (convert only the second disc), and then add the second partition.

  But I'd rather not use a dynamic disk.

  Or you can use diskpart and make that extend your volume.

  Quick and easy, but Microsoft does not support the diskpart.

  Or use Partition Magic or similar tools.

  Or use Convert from VMware to create a new virtual machine with different size disks.

• R310 adding hard drive space

  Greetings! I have a Dell R310 with the standard configuration 250Gig Raid1 hard drives 2 x 250gig, that gives a virtual disk. Question, can I buy another SATA to 2 x 1 TB drives and create a second virtual disk with Raid1 or should I break the current Raid1(possibly format) before adding more storage? Thanks, Gavin

  Hello Gavin

  Gavincr001

  Can I buy another SATA to 2 x 1 TB drives and create a second virtual disk with Raid1

  Yes, you should be able to. If you have slots for 2 additional readers, then you can create a second table. I don't know any of our controllers that support only RAID 1 array.

  Thank you

• Install Windows 7 Pro on the second HARD drive located in Optibay

  Hello

  I have a 2009 15 "MacBook Pro C2D 2.66 with 8 GB of ram and a 480 GB SSD as my main drive. I will be to install a secondary HARD drive in the optical Bay. I want a 250 GB partition for a boot camp and 750 GB partition which can be read by OS X and Windows. 750Go partition will be used mainly on the side of the OS X to store photos, movies, music and documents but would be like training camp to access incase I need a file or two. I have already twisted boot camp to allow a windows usb installation and wonder what to do next steps are. I have read several forums and it's possible but instructions on the forums seem to be a specific user. Thanks in advance.

  1. on your specific Mac, windows should be on the main drive Bay. It will be also problems to start.

  2. do not modify the Info.plist Bootcamp and try the USB installation. You spend hours trying and it will fail.

  3. you must use the internal optical drive, integrated to install Windows on the main drive Bay.

  4. Once Windows is installed and fully functional, you can then replace the Optibay drive.

  5. do not throw your optical drive. If you need to repair Windows, you will need to return to the standard hardware configuration.

  6. you can have problems even under normal circumstances with a dual Setup, so be prepared for adventures in such a configuration.

• Pavilion Media Edition a1640n - adding hard drives

  I want to add a second hard drive of my Media Edition Pavilion a1640n.

  I found the SATA ports, but I can't find a free plug in power cable.

  The existing HD has 2 caps of small power inside. 1 is just a 2 orange wires.

  Any help?

  You must upgrade the power supply to one with more capacity and connections to add a hard disk in the current configuration of your PC.

  An alternative would be to delete the connections of power and data on the DVD player and use them for the additional disk. You really use the DVD player very often or is it just take place?

  I could really justify not upgrade the PSU, in terms of expenditure, as the PC has very little residual value after eight years of use.

  The PC is worth the upgrade when it may stop working at any time?

  Eight years of use on a pc is actually quite extraordinary. Consider yourself lucky.

• Adding hard drive in the optical drive in an Z210 CMT - method?

  Not obvious HP documentation exactly which carrier is needed to set up a standard 3.5 "SATA hard drive in one of the positions below the optical drive.

  HP parts list shows HP #619242-001 as carrier to achieve, but this part, judging by the photos, just doesn't seem right: large heat sink, a kind of connector built, etc. Also, of course, over $ 40 with shipping. Just to mount a drive?

  Am I missing something here?

  DRM for your help!

  Only HP number piece you posted actually represents a HP original Western Digital IcePack, which allows the conversion of an SSD 2.5 "or the hard disk in a 3.5 form factor" which exactly reproduces the form of a standard disk 3.5 "(including the change of accessories features/SATA power correctly to the left, and either in the middle of a Bay that may be important in some workstations).  Here's a picture of:

  

  If you have a spare 5.25 "Bay that you can remove the 'empty' in your workstation of Z, then here's the information you want about the device that accepts a standard 3.5" disk (or the IcePack 2.5"Drive Converter above).  This is the HP NQ099AA sled, which replaces the empty 5.25 ", and you can see from the image below that there's a front slit black plastic to allow the entry of ventilation.  It has a metal back slot to accept what seems to be the Green 3.5 "HP drive original holder that was used in the era workstations xw (slide in rear), and who will be included.  These types of 5.25 "era sleds Z generally works very well in the era post xw optical drive bays, also.  HP is one that accepts two drives 2.5 "in a sleigh (picture not included).  I bought some guys from Alan on eBay several times... good company.  Search on eBay for this code part option see more photos.

  

  

  I do not have a workstation Z like yours to compare to, so maybe you don't have a spare optical drive Bay to insert such an adapter in.  However, looking at the Z210 photos on eBay that looks exactly what you need.

  Hope this helps and let us know the results of others to take advantage...
