Caddy for HP Pavilion 15 n034ca HARD drive

Hello

Not sure this is the right place to post this, but I just bought the laptop that you can see in the title and want to continue using the HARD drive I had in the old laptop that died (Asus ROG, who died after only 2.5 years of use and yes I have cut down a lot on the specifications they were no longer necessary). The only problem is that searching the Internet I can't find media for which I could replace the optical drive with this laptop.

Anyone of you guys know where to find these?

Thank you!

Morning

It is not apear to be any mention of a Multibay expansion for this machine, you can try looking for an external USB caddy kit fot it, they are relitively inexpensive and available from most computer stores

Thank you

  • Replacement for HP Pavilion Elite e9250t HARD drive

    I get an error message saying "A disk in a RAID 0 volume is a failure".

    I plan to replace both drives, currently, to 500 discs with a capacity higher than as 2 TB each. The Pavilion Elite e9250t supports 2 TB disks? And can I install them with RAID, so that my data is protected?

    Hello JMHP,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that you have questions about your desktop PC HP Pavilion Elite e9250t supports 2 TB disks and whether or not it supports RAID. According to HP Pavilion Elite e9250t desktop PC product specifications and configurable Options , your computer supports "2 TB (2 x 1 TB) 7200 RPM SATA 3 G (3.0 Gb/s) ' so the answer to your first question is 'YES', it will support a 2 TB hard. As to your second question as to if she supports RAID, indio motherboard (which is what you have) supports the following:

    • Integrated RAID controller: P55 (same as previously introduced application ICH9r RAID)
    • Steps to configure RAID (internal link to setup for P55, even the steps of configuration for ICH10r and ICH9r)
    • Intel RAID solution is called Intel Matrix Storage Technology (outside link)
    • Only some models indio compatible ship RAID (see datasheet for your model). Compatible RAID means that the system is ready to be configured for RAID 0 or RAID 1.
    • Migration from 1 to 0 is supported by material in the world.
    • RAID modes supported *:
      • RAID 0
      • RAID 1
    • Additional resources:

    * NOTE: three hard disks requires a RAID 5 and RAID 10 four hard drives. While the hardware can support other RAID modes, only RAID 0 and RAID 1 modes are supported on models that include this motherboard.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Can I use a bestbuy for my Pavilion dv5t-1000 hard drive?

    Hard drive on my Pavilion dv5t-1000 is a failure.  Do I have to use a replacement drive hp because of a partition that hp adds to their hard drives for recovery?  Can I use my HP recovery disks and backup of recovery on a hard drive purchased in-store?  Is no longer under warranty.

    Hello:

    You should be able to do it without problem.

    Make sure that the drive you buy is the same specifications (SATA II, 2.5 ") and size in GB (or larger) then the original one.

  • Pavilion 15 ab128na: hard drive upgrade from the Pavilion 15-ab128na

    Hello

    I am buying a laptop computer ab128na Pavilion 15 and wanted to know about upgrade capabilities.

    It comes with a disc of M.2 256 GB SSD but it maybe a bit small. Is there room for an additional HARD disk drive (such as the gaming notebook pavilion)? So I, for example, M.2 256 GB SSD drive and a 1 TB HARD drive.

    Or the model allows only for 1 hard drive, so I have to replace the SSD drive, it comes with a larger capacity SSD?

    Thanks in advance

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    This manual explains Star Wars Edition and the 15-ab128na sharing the same internals with this model.

    The problem is if your laptop comes with just the MSSD m2 I don't think they understand the mounting kit for a 2.5-inch hard drive. You must purchase the part on the secondary market in some way.

    Kit hardware hard drive (supports and connector) 809296-001

    http://www.eBay.com/ITM/809296-001-HP-15-AB027CL-hard-drive-caddy-Kit-grade-A-/171992018156?hash=item280b85ecec:g:2SgAAOSw7hRWPoW0

    In addition, access to the hard drive Bay is a bit of a chore and put security at risk.

    But to directly answer your question, the laptop is designed to have a m2 and the SATA 2.5 inch disk at the same time.

    You could also install a HDD as pure storage using the slot of the DVD drive with an adapter. Of course, you lose the optical drive but I find myself with mine very rarely these days, anyway. Use of this Bay, the warranty will not be affected.

  • Pavilion g: error hard drive

    Hello

    How can I resolve the following error:

    Test Drive: 1

    INTELLIGENT control: PAST

    DST short: FAILURE

    FAILURE ID: ME43TL-5KE7H5-XD014J-60W603

    Thank you

    Hi Alex,

    About the error code, it always indicates a failure - Smart drive self-test or when related to the HARD drive.  You will see different codes for the same error is because the codes contain also other information such as the status of the guarantee, product etc. in encrypted form id - only HP has the software to decrypt it.

    Regarding the replacement of the hard drive is concerned, your laptop is listed as coming with a 500 GB hard drive, but you can also easily install a 750 GB HARD drive if you want a little more space - readers at the following links are examples that would be perfect for your laptop.

    Hard drive 500 GB

    750 GB hard drive.

    The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 53 of your & Maintenance Guide.

    Once this is done, simply use your recovery DVD to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - this is described in the document of HP here.

    If you do not have your recovery discs, you can order a replacement set using the link below.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

    If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

    Regarding your existing data (assuming that the laptop is no longer starts), if it is essential to keep the data, your best option would be to seek the services of a company specializing in the recovery of the data it is however an expensive procedure.

    Otherwise, here are some options you can try.

    1. one possible way to try to recover your files from a disk non-boot is to follow the process described in the link below.  The CD of the Ubuntu operating system you create can launched from the CD alone (IE it doesn't have to be installed on the hard drive) and I've often found to successfully extract data even a hard failure.  When you created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can save your existing files.

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/use-Ubuntu-Live-CD-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-Windo...

    2 another option would be to remove the drive HARD, place it in an external enclosure - is an example of the link below - connect to another PC and see if you can access your files.

  • Use the TC for backup and as external hard drive

    Hello

    Can I use TC for backup and as external hard drive?

    If yes then when it is full, TC erase my personal data I have stored in TC as a hard drive or erase the oldest backups?

    1. Yes, but you shouldn't. Your working data and backups must be on separate drives in case one of them goes down.

    2. Time Machine will not erase the data it did not originally there.

  • A temperature probe is really necessary for the replacement of the hard drive?

    I replaced the hard drive in my late 2009 iMac 21.5 ". In the OWC video, he calls for a probe. My hard drive is not one of the built-in ones. I was wondering if I really need or the computer will work fine without it?

  • FAT32 formatting for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista

    How to format FAT32 file system for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista?

    Hi MVRMVR,

    Windows will work generally only format a drive in FAT 32 if it has a capacity of 32GB, no more. To format in FAT32, Yes, would need to create multiple partitions. This, of course, you don't want to do.

    I have not tried to format a large drive in FAT 32 but I guess that any third-party partitioning software (Acronis, Paragon etc.) would be able to do it without any problem. Alternatively you can do it from the Windows command prompt. For more details, see the link below:

  • How much space do I need to allow for Vista while partitioning the hard drive?

    How much space do I need to allow for Vista while partitioning the hard drive?

    I am installing on a new drive hard and need to partition the hard drive.

    I remember he had a certaing amount allocated for vista and before recovery.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    40GBs is the minimum; who will be vey quickly useless.

    Recovery partition would have been photographed by the manufacturer of the computer hard disk and you can't replicate that.

    You can use all of the hard disk space available to install Vista on.

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • Pavilion dv7 - 4263cl: hard drive problems

    Long story short, OS could not start windows with a missing BOOTMGR message, recovery disc, not work, ordered new HP recovery disks.  To cover, I ordered a new hard drive to replace it, with the same characteristics but a 1 Toshiba to.

    OK, installed the hard drive and used recovery disks at HP, but when you restart always get BOOTMGR missing error message.  Make a new recovery disk for windows 7 64 bit internet and serious on a bootable CD.  It starts, but found recovery does not list an OS system on hard drive.   Did the hard restart more once, install hardrive checked again, the cables and connections.  Took another installation of the HP recovery discs and also led a bootable disc that was to fix the problems with installing a new HHD and activation of the HHD working properly. Working always nothing. Get the same message.  Cast recovery manager got into the prompt orders and done a repair of the bootrec nothing / new. Checked the directory and found at the bottom of the list that it lists zero OS System.  So, how can I get my hard drive formatted to accept the installation of the OS? Any ideas to try, I have read and tried all the messages, I could very well on this forum.   Thank you...

    Thanks for the reply, yes my hard drive failed and I installed a new one, but after using the purchased HP recovery disc though HP, showed that a black bootmgr error saying screen was missing.

    Found on the HP disks partitioned hard drive, with windows on X:\ but was again start-up C:\ which was just a recovery image.   X drive was not complete, he lacked all the drivers and could not activate or change and C disc drive letter. I didn't know how to do this in the command prompt.

    Fixed my problem with a windows 7 installation no disc not the recovery disks that came from HP, if all goes well, they will work to reinstall all drivers to the laptop, but we'll see.  Used (computer repair) on the installation disk and it repaired the bootmgr.  Thanks anyway...

    I plan to buy an Apple 80 GB hard disk 3.5 SATA for my Compaq CQ62, the hard drive that I have for you is a "WD 500 GB 2.5 SATA II.

    Ports appear as it will keep and everything, but I'm curious to know, if I get this drive, I'll be able to install my Macintosh on that hard drive and use it on my laptop Compaq CQ62 or not?
    If this isn't the case, then I'll be able to install Windows 7 or uBuntu on this hard drive? The hard drive will fit even on my laptop? Thank you!

    I had a problem with Lightroom on Microsoft Surface 3.  I added a 128 gB microSD card to provide the space for my photos, (a second hard drive) but lightroom won't let me not import all the pictures that are already on the map.  The only import option is 'copy', not 'Add '.  I worked around this by mounting a network directory containing photos and imported from there.  Is it possible to stop Lightroom to see such a map as a camera?
