Additional HARD disk adds HP ENVY 6-1120sq

I just bought a HP ENVY 6-1120sq which has a SSD 128 GB on it. Is it possible to add an additional normal HARD drive?

Really, they don't want messing you here... envy 6 Ultra is a closed system. However, it is configured to use a 2.5 inches wide but thin 7 mm 'standard' hard drive and has a slot for a smaller WSSD (physical size), which is what you have. Here is the Service Manual:

Manual

7 mm 500 gig hard drive

Get the MSSD and a normal hard drive to play nice together cannot be too easy. In many systems, the WSSD is used as a 'cache' drive to speed up the main drive. In yours, it is used as main storage.

    Thank you, Joe

    Hi, Joe:

    When I look at the upgrade and maintenance of your PC guide, I don't get a hard drive Bay.

    So, I would say that your PC is not configured to handle more than one hard drive.

  • Add additional hard disk to ESX4.1

    Hello

    I have a box of esx with 500 GB hard drive, I use this to objective test and have 5-6 vm on local storage. Now, I would like a few more storage and plans to add another hard drive to ESX box for making fewer virtual machines. I've not done this before so would like to know if I add an additional hard drive, I'll be able to create another customer vspehere data store? If this is not the case, how can I use the extra space on it?

    Thank you...

    Yes, if the drive is connected to a supported disk controller, t appear in the vSphere Client. What does the Wizard "add storage", it creates a new partition on the drive and it is shaped with the VMFS file system.

  • Satellite A200-1GH, remove the additional HARD disk cover

    Hello

    I bought a new HARD drive and I want to put it in place of additional hard drive, but I can't remove the cover... :-(... I was remove two screws and nothing...
    Can you help me please?

    Respect...

    Stand by. If I understand you right, you want to add the second HARD drive. Am I right about that?
    At first, I must say that this is not possible due to lack of connectors. In any case you can check only. Remove the two screws and remove the cover plastic. I know, it cannot be removed easily. Remove it in the middle and remove the side.

  • Is it POSSIBLE to install additional hard disk in DV7 4073NR?

    Hi all

    I want to install an additional hard drive in my DV7 laptop 4073NR, is it possible? The cams of laptop computer with a hard drive, I have removed and installed an a SSD, I work with both? With windows installed in SSD and files in the groin? If Yes, what should I do?

    Thank you very much?

    Yes but only in storage. Add the old drive with the newmodeus.com cable and caddy in the second hard drive Bay. Connect the cable. The old drive should appear in Windows Explorer with a drive letter if it is formatted and partitioned. If it is empty, it should be formatted and partitioned. If you need help with that, let us know. You just can't do a drive in the Bay of this second bootable.

  • Additional HARD disk, PC does not start.

    I'm under a Dimension 9200 on Windows Vista Ultimate Edition.

    I just bought a 1 TB Western Digital Caviar Green Power drive.  I plugged on one of the locations additional sata on the motherboard and pc market.  I have an IDE installed RAID card normally shows directly after the dell logo, and detects my old three disks IDE and their config raid which is fine.

    Reference Dell also provided me with two drives of 320 GB in a raid configuration, using my C drive, which he would then normally detect.  However, when the new drive is connected it just displays an error message, something can not find bios.  I have not disconnected or changed their cables somehow.

    When I disconnect the new drive again, the pc boots fine.

    I tried to enter in the configuration with the drive connected to change the boot sequence, but it won't let me enter the configuration.  I can enter the installer without a connection, and I assured my normal C drive is the first boot drive, but it still does not work.

    I'm not trying to add it to one of the raid configs current sport im, I want just that he's a player, I thought that it would be virtually plug-in, turn on, format and leave, but no luck!

    Someone made me what I am doing wrong?

  • Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - mounting additional HARD disk

    Hello

    I'm hoping to add an extra hard drive to my satellite pro p300-1f1 laptop. I know that he has an extra compartment and it has a sata connector, so I know it's possible. But I need a support or mount or a caddy/adapter to the hard drive in place of the crew. When I contacted the Dutch Office of toshiba, they said that they did not support it and do not have this part. And the manual of the user on the site Web there says nothing about this compartment.

    I hope that one of you may know part whitch I need (the second compartment of the hard drive need to another mount/support/caddy/adapter then the hard drive that is already installed.

    I live in Holland, so no response with the Dutch dealers or websites would be great but uk / us is also appreciated.

    Update: here are some photos I did inside the compartment. Maby he helps :) ([Fig 1 | http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/8240/dsc01104h.jpg]) ([photo 2 | http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/585/dsc01102s.jpg]) ([photo 3 | http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/2536/dsc01101l.jpg])

    Hi Thijsm,

    If you have a second HARD drive connector, you can add a second HDD. But as you wrote, you need a shopping cart to install it.

    I put t know you contacted exactly, but on the Toshiba site, you will find a list of all ASP s:

  • Satellite M30: Replace DVD with additional HARD disk?

    Hello!

    As my Satellite M30-642 does not offer a modular Bay for the installed switches and I have a DVD burner for USB that I can use I think try an experiment: withdrawal of the DVD drive and replace it with an extra HDD/SSD.

    As SSDS are very light, have no moving parts and does not necessarily need screws to be installed and the slot DVD brings the IDE and this could work to power connector. The DSS must be placed inside an old and updated the slimline cd-rom so that the change is not visible and the laptop is safe from dust etc.

    Has anyone tried something like this before? Are there solutions to buy for Sat M30 (2004 vintage)?

    Cheers, obreitfelder

    Hello

    As far as I know the Sat M30 doesn t support the slim select Bay and, therefore you cannot use this adapter instead of the CD/DVD drive.

    Sorry, it is not possible

    Good bye

  • How to add hard drive for HP Envy Phoenix 810-135qe CTO.

    My previous Pavalion motherboard failed and I ordered the current desktop.  I have the hard drive of the defective system.  He had the same operating system, windows 7, 64 bit, like this again.  I know some information about adding HDD to envy again.  No info on the motherboard or connections.  P5 and P6 power connectors are avilable for additional hard disks.  I see there are some open sata connectors on the motherboard, but need more info and direction on which one to use, or if things do, etc..  before I add the hard drive.

    Use any header open SATA on the motherboard that you want to use. As long as you don't make changes to the current boot order in the BIOS and save the changes, it will not count.

  • XPS 8500 additional SATA Drive add...cable/power questions

    Nothing on sites Web of Dell (after two hours of seraching, including a chat with a Dell representative session) on how to add a hard drive from a dell computer. I'm simply confused (this happens regularly) it is difficult to find, or you really need to add a simple video on how to add an extra SATA (how many times people do that?).

    No info on cables, power supplies, how many readers you can add, etc.

    So this is the kind of thing I need... Thank you! How do I add a SATA, which cable does, esp if the slots for the cables are already taken by the BluRay player... can get a cable SATA outputs multiple?

    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks, Bev... screw seems to be the only parts I have.

    I am therefore reason to believe that I can put only two disks sata in this 8500, right? and we're already here, so I can really only add one, correct?

    Where are you going to get the good SATA cable?

    the manual referenced does not something specific on SATA wiring part I looked. Should not be too much of a pest, but do you have a specific reference.

    Rick,
     
    Yes, you can add an additional hard disk, the disk hard primary exsisting. to add several internal hard drives, you need an open 3.5"/5.25" bay and to install more than four SATA drives, SATA PCIe x 1 expansion card would be necessary.
     
    You should be able to buy a SATA data cable in a store of the local computer, or www.newegg.com for more details, go here,
     
     
    Better to use a local store to save the S & H
     
    Sorry to say, that the manual is the only reference that Dell has released, as most newer Dell manuals, missing many details.
     
    Install the secondary hard drive is usually relatively in line forward, you must connect the data cable to a SATA connector on the motherboard, and after installation checking the installation process, to see if the drive is recognized.
     
    If the drive is recognized in the installation program for Windows to recognize the second hard drive, it must be patitioned, formatted and received a drive letter using disk Windows 7 Manager.

  • Drive HARD physics add to VMware ESXi 5.1

    I came across a configuration of a Dell Power Edge ii one T110 Server VMware ESXi 5.1


    It was built not by me, I found it here. I came across the need to increase the storage of VMware, but I need to add a new physical HARD disk.


    I'm afraid to make any changes to the system, because there is no backup found for the virtual machine.


    If I stop the physical machine and connect the additional HARD disk, how can I declare to the VMware, in order to define the backup of the virtual machine?


    Thank you in advance.


    Sincerely, George I.

    When you restart the server, you should see an option to create a matrix of storage before the ESXi begins to start up (this option is available for almost all servers and appears between POST process and startup). Select the option and create a RAID 0 array on second HARD drive. Start the ESXi server after that. You have to be sure that the second HDD is not in use or it will be formatted.

    When the ESXi has started, go to Configuration-> Storage-> rescan all. After the news of the analysis is complete, go to storage add and you should see the table that you just created. After you have added storage, it will be visible as a the ESXi data store.

    Let me know how it went.

  • Script to get the capacity of HARD disks on a virtual computer

    I need to add a line to the script below which will get the additional HARD disks on the virtual machine. At the present time, its just by pulling the primary OS info.

    $VmInfo = ForEach ($Datacenter in (Get-Datacenter | Sort-Object -Property Name)) {

  • HP Envy 750-197c Desktop: you can add a SSD internal flash disk to the envy of HP 750-197c Desktop

    You can add an internal SSD to the envy of HP 750 - 197c Desktop that has a 2 TB drive installed?

    DMSIceman, welcome to the forum.

    Yes, you can move the HARD disk and install an SSD.  You will need to buy at least a 128 GB SSD.  Here is the data sheet for the computer.

    The best way to install an SSD is to leave the current HARD drive as it came from the factory.  Connect the SSD drive to another SATA port on the motherboard.  Install the software of Migration data provided by the SSD manufacturer on the HARD drive.  Once installed, open it and follow the instructions carefully.  You choose the SSD as a target.  After the data is transferred from the HDD to the SSD, you can disconnect the HARD drive and start the computer.  It should start on the SSD.  Then, you can disconnect the SSD to the first SATA connector and move to another Bay HARD drive and connect it to another SATA port on the motherboard.  You can use it for storage.

    I like the SSD Samsung EVO.  Samsung offers its data Migration software to clone HARD drive.  In addition, they provide their software Wizard to optimize the performance of the SSD.  You can find all the software at the bottom of the page in the link I provided for the EVO.  The Samsung SSD were good about starting in HP computers without changing the BIOS settings.  You will need to buy an adapter to allow the reader to 2.5 "to fit into a 3.5 Bay".

  • Add additional sata disk to pavillion m9400t elite

    Hello, I have a HP Pavilion Elite M9400T desktop computer.  I'm on the disc and you want to add an additional hard drive.  The case of the opening, I found that the two slots of the disc already have records in them.  I also found that SATA0 and SATA2 ports have taken in them and they are attached to the hard drive.  I found that the SATA4 port is empty and this is where I want to connect the additional disk.  I bought a Western Digital Black 2 TB 3.5 hard drive and buy an internal matter for mounting the drive in the empty 5.25 bay under the optical drive.  I also need to buy a SATA cable and adpater cable drive power.  Did I meet problems getting the systΦme can recognize the added disk?  Are there things I should be aware of I have install additional drive?  Thanks for the info.

    The "T" of the HP Pavilion Elite M9400T designates a custom configuration. These can be found here.

    Based on your post, your system has a RAID0 (spans 2 discs) or RAID1 (mirrored), which

    (A) 2 x 500 GB drives in RAID 1 (helpful 500 GB storage capacity)

    (B) 640 (2 x 320) GB, RAID 0

    (C) 1 TB (2 x 500) RAID 0

    So, what's your configuration?

    Add the 3rd disc system is simple, and your logic is correct.  Installation, connection and format.

    The system is 5 years old (readers have a limited duration), you may be eligible to advance the survival rate by installing the new drive as primary and the old records of retirement.

  • Can I add an additional hard drive storage?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    A 40 GB hard drive, I installed in my computer and I would like to know what would be the best practice to install an additional hard drive?

    Basically, you have two choices:

    1. install a second hard drive (only possible if your computer has physical space for this)

    2. replace your 40 GB with a bigger drive.

    If you add or replace, there are two important factors you need to consider size and interface type.  Most laptops use 2.5-inch disks.  Most of office/towers use 3.5-inch disks.  There are several different hard drive interfaces, and you get a drive that has the same interface as your computer.

    Most older computers use the Parallel ATA interface (PATA or sometimes simply ATA).  These discs are also called IDE disks.  There are several variations, but those generally available today is the Ultra ATA66 IDE / ATA - 5, Ultra ATA100 IDE / ATA - 6 and the Ultra ATA133 IDE / ATA-7.  The numbers refer to the data transfer rate.  No matter the data transfer capacity of the disc, however, your actual data transfer rates will be limited by your motherboard.  Finally, you'll notice an RPM rating and a size of "cache".  For the performance, in general, the higher these numbers the better the performance.

    Number of computers more recent uses the interface Serial ATA (SATA).  There are three versions of the present.  SATA-1 (1.5 Gbps), SATA-2 (3 Gbps) and SATA-3 (6 Gbps).  However, given that you currently have a 40 GB drive, it is strong enough to bet that you have NOT of SATA.

    Another interface is SCSI.  You have probably not SCSI.

    The starting point is by identifying the brand and model of your computer.  If you have a desktop/Tower computer, you can buy almost any hard drive, that you like; laptops can be a bit more picky.  A good resource for readers (once you know what you want) is newegg.com  Drive Solutions offer one advice that should tell you what players are compatible with your computer.

    If you choose to replace rather than add them, you will need to 'clone' of your existing to the new drive.  To do this, you will need appropriate software.  Sometimes, the software basic disk of cloning comes with the disk (remember to read the product description or email/call the seller before you buy).  Sometimes, it is available as a free download from the manufacturer of the drive (for example, if you buy a Western Digital drive, WD has "Acronis True Image WD Edition Software").  Or you can get your own copy of various applications of cloning, some are free, but more for sale.

    If you replace a laptop (or a drive in a desktop/tower with no computer available drive Bay), you can buy an external hard drive enclosure.  There are a variety of them.  Just be sure to get one with the internal interface correctly to match the drive and an external interface that is compatible with your computer (usually, USB 2.0).  External hard disk enclosure are sometimes comes with disk cloning software.  And, once your new drive is in place and functioning satisfactorily, you can put the old drive in the box and erase (format) it and use it as a backup drive.

    Above sounds a lot more complicated than it is.  You will probably find even the process YouTube videos, if you look at.
