• HDD WD20EARS to HPE 112Y - power to SATA power connectors - only P4 Molex available?

  Hi all

  I bought a new drive HARD for Western Digital (WD20EARS) and when I went to install in my HPE 112y

  I saw that the harness for my existing WD10EADS had the usual black SATA power connector (labeled P9)

  plugged in,

  still on the same spot next to my main HARD drive did not exist another SATA Black Power Connector for my new HARD drive but a great white molex 4 driver female connector P4

  I searched through the bundle of cables, Power Supplies, but I have not found another available black SATA power connector.

  So very quickly what I thought would be a simple upgrade of HARD drive stopped me in my tracks.

  So, my questions are...

  (1) can I buy an adapter's cable to power the existing WD10EADS as well as my new HDD WD20EARS?

  (2) is there a short jumper cable that allows you to convert the white Molex P4?

  (3) should I just upgrade the existing LiteOn model of block of power SUPPLY PS-5301 - 08HA / power 300 WATT?

  If so, what is a good upgrade and did so for my HPE 112y? Necessary power, 400-500-700 watts

  I have a gateway FX541S with a power of 700FB1E Delta Electronics which has 3 SATA power connectors

  that align perfectly to each of its 3 HARD drive location... Very well!

  That's why I was surprised when I saw the problem I had with my RESUME, I was expecting the same thing.

  I never thought that I would have a cable problem, after that I got my new HARD drive.

  The HP Pavilion Elite 112y has two discs, Blu - Ray and DVD as well as a Radeon HD4350 Video card and now two HDD.

  Is 300 watts enough, even though both of my HARD drives WD Green drives are.

  Unlike my front door where security HARD drive in place with a lever and blade in the front or side according to the case law can be too LOL!

  My HPE 112y has a cage for two HARD disks that screw in place... I don't have the necessary screws.

  Where can I get these very short screws to ensure my WD HARD drive?

  I tried Lowes with no luck.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  I went simple and fast 5 minutes HDD Upgrade which I have just done to my front door, a serious project with my RESUME.

  I still love my HP, but not too friendly!

  Hi again,

  Update.

  I went to my local computer store and got an adapter 'Y' which connects Molex 4 male pins on the computers Molex 4-pin female connector, then to a 'Y' for two SATA power connectors.

  They were kind enough to give me a bag of screws for the installation of my HARD drive in the cage.

  HDD installed in the cage, connected new red SATA cable and power cable SATA and everything has been working well since!

  Thanks again,

  Bud

• Dv6500 laptop - no Standard disc HARD SATA/power connectors

  Hi - I decided to upgrade my 80 GB Western Digital Scorpio 2.5 inches with a Seagate Momentus 2.5 inch 250 GB. The Seagate as I thought, were the standard SATA power connectors. The connectors slide on, the same thing as what I saw on all SATA 3.5 Desktop drives. We WD Scorpio, the pins are divided and snap into the motherboard. So I don't think I can use the Seagate, what 2.5 inch disks have will work with the DV6500? I thought that SATA SATA.

  Duh! Answered my question on. Looked at training, I got out and noticed there is a converter of pins of connectors SATA slide standard split connectors that facilitate their insertion in Notepad. just removed the old WD drive converter and added to the new Seagate.

• Adding a DVD - ROM Samsung (IDE) to a hp p6540f

  I want to add that an IDE controlled DVD - ROM for hp 6540f.  He already has a controlled SCSI lightwriter DVD.  There is room to put it in but I don't know if the IDE will be compatible with the connections inside the hp6540f?

  Any thoughts on what I'll find when I open the case?

  There is no IDE connector on your motherboard, it's a pain to add it, you will need to purchase a PCI-E x 1 IDE controller card, install it, and then connect it to one.

• How can I add second hard drive to a Pavilion a6838f? cc = us

  I have an a6838f of Pavilion with a 500 GB SATA hard drive.  I also have an a6838f where the motherboard was fried by a nearby lightning strike.  Can someone tell me how to transplant the hard disk of the machine of death in the other as a second hdd.  I can find only one wire with two SATA power connectors that are currently in use (CD drive and HARD drive).  Thank you.

  richiej,

  That PSU (5188-2625) shown here http://www.power-on.com/ea350u.html is supposed to have 4 Sata power leads, 2 on each leg of cable. See the PDF file, PF - PI http://www.power-on.com/images/mechanical/ea350u.pdf

  If search you and trace the tracks, you might find these other Sata power cards.

  BTW, Frank meant molex to Sata.

• How to remove the DVD ROM on the Satellite L300D 242?

  Hello

  my laptop (* Toshiba L300D 242 *) DVD ROM has been damaged and I have acquired a new and now I can not figure out how to remove my old DVD ROM and replace it with a new one... Please help me understand how to remove the old and replace it with a new one...
  Thank you...
  E-mail: [[email protected]]

  Agree with Feliks the ODD is secured by a screw hidden in the HARD drive Bay.
  So the HARD drive Bay cover must be removed to access this screw procedure is not really difficult, so you should be able to remove it easily.

• 526 KB for the DVD-ROM contents, but in the project is empty? How to remove

  Very strange.  My previous projects say under disc info that there is 526 KB for the DVD-Rom content.  I don't know how to remove it.  So I thought I would try the Adobe Dynamic Link into a new project.  I check the Build and there is 526 KB for the DVD-Rom content.  And I only made the video in yet, no menus!

  So I thought I would start a new project in Encore without ANYTHING imported.  And when I check, there is 526 KB for the DVD-Rom content!  But there is nothing there!  How can I remove the DVD-Rom content?

  You can not

  As far as I know, this isn't 'really' rom content, it's fresh General

• Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

  My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

  I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

• To replace the DVD drive with the second HARD disk on the pavilion DM4-2000

  Hello

  I would like to remove my laptop DVD drive and replace it with an SSD. It seems that the DVD player does not use the standard format of pins SATA for hard drives, rather than use a slightly smaller connection. Is it possible to connect a laptop SATA drive this in any case and if so, how?

  Any help appreciated,

  Tim

  You need a car adapter. Your laptop uses 12.7 mm optical readers and you need this card:

• Is there guidance on the installation of a second DVD player on the p6280t Pavilion?

  I would like to install a second DVD player in my PC, but because most DVD players have their own door opening, like the PC, should I buy a HP drive, or there at - there a way to disable the built in door?  Are there written policies of this?  I have installed additional disks on other computers, but none of them had built in door and built-in open button.  Thank you.  Mike

  Here are the specifications and factory configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion p6280t CTO. Please consult this guide HP titled "adding or replacing a CD or a DVD player. Just follow the instructions in the guide mentioned above and place the new drive into the open slot. Any SATA optical drive with a load of 'plateau' should work fine. The houses of coverage, two drive doors get opened by the drive platters and the external release buttons press the eject button on the actual readers.

• Adding second drive of DVD to H8-1234.

  The H8-1234 has an open slot and a power connector of alternatives for adding a second DVD player.  However, the existing SATA cable has only one connector. HP offers a cable two connector? Can I use a SATA cable two connectors "generic"?  Finally, the H8-1234 will work with a second DVD disc?  Thank you.

  Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8-1234. According to specifications, your system has six (6) SATA connectors on the motherboard. Unlike the IDE/PATA, SATA supports only one device per cable. Install another CD/DVD/BluRay drive will require you to buy another SATA data cable to make it work. And YES, the computer will function normally with a second optical drive installed.
