Can I add a second drive to an edition four dv7t-7000?

The HP parts store said on a drive has been supported, but configuration options have shown

several configuration with two drives.

I had hoped that I could add a caddy and power/bus connector from the parts store.

Only, I have configured the machine with a drive and add a second drive (from my dv7 dead 3085 dx).

The machine is supposed to arrive June 18

Thanks for the ideas...

Jerry

The answer is a qualified Yes.

The kit suitable for the dv7t-7000 is ' 681976-001.  This kit comes with the

Caddy and a power/bus short and long cable. It also has some screws

the disk drive on the caddy.

It contains also the 2 screws M2.5xL4 which will be attached the main drive caddy to the

the computer chassis, but there is no screws to attach the second drive caddy to

the framework.

the recommended screws are 2.5 M x 9 L.

I picked up two 2.5 M x 8L live in ACE hardware work fine.

  • Pavilion 9408nr: Add a second drive for another main drive for laptops

    How can I add a second drive for another main drive of laptop computers. I took the car on the same cell type that crashed by the motherboard. I put it in drive Bay 2. Problems with starting. I sometimes want to boot from disc 2. Is there a MBR somewhere? Are there jumpers to make it slave. Sometimes it will install the software on 2 without any question. Is there a way to make a slave?

    Important-copy all data on the second hard drive you want to save on the first hard drive.

    MBR of Windows with the hard drive. Use Windows Explorer to locate the second hard drive. Right-click on it and format it.  Once this done, all what one is a storage device and not bootable until the operating system is installed to it.

    The BIOS will only see the hard drive as a bootable as it will now be the only drive with a MBR boot sector.

    The days of placement of the jumpers to determine master or slave on the disks hard is long gone. SATA drives have no jumpers slave\master like the old school IDE and Eide did.

  • Can I add a second hard drive to an ATC-605-UB11?

    I'm about to buy this model and I would like to add a second drive, keep the current hard drive and the optical drive.  Is this possible?  Can I buy additional cables?  The new drive will fit in the chassis, or will I need a mounting hardware?

    Some posts have mentioned black and white SATA connectors.  What is the difference?

    Yes, you can add an extra HDD or SSD.  Two white sata data ports are SATA 3 (6Gbits/s) and the black sata data port is SATA 2 (3 Gbps).

    I would recommend that you purchase an extension to sata power cable:

    http://www.Amazon.com/GP/product/B008ZB50SS?PSC=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

    And a SATA data cable (you don't need a 90 a degree as I - one straight, one would work better):

    http://www.Amazon.com/GP/product/B00552PGC0/ref=s9_topr_hd_bw_g147_i6?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=...

    4 holes screws for the existing 3.5 inch HDD mounting are obviously designed for a disk 3,5 '' HARD.

    The 4 screw holes for the second disc unit you want to add editing are for one SSD 2.5-inch or 2.5 inch HDD.

    I bought a 2.5 inches for support adapter 3.5 inches because I don't have enough close attention in time to realize that the holes line up perfectly for one SSD 2.5.  If you do not need any kind of support if you add a 2.5 SSD ".  Screw you just good to.

    BX100 MLC SSD Crucial that I bought and recommended even if any 2.5-inch SSD should work fine even if I do not recommend the BX200 TLC Crucial are:

    http://www.Amazon.com/GP/product/B00RQA6TEI?PSC=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00

    I also bought this one to another computer and use as a boot drive for OS.  Works well when you have a more secondary HARD disk.  The price is right, but it's a little on the slow side from a point of view writing SSD.  Boot times are fast.

    Here is an example of a 2.5 inch HDD (hard drive) that I * guess * lined up with available screw holes:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA2W02KN0922

    Just keep in mind that the HARD drive that came with it is a 3.5-inch HARD drive.

    Arrows in the photo below represent the locations of the holes 4 screws for the second disc.  (ignore that I have only two screws )

    Edit: because the reader of DVD (ODD) is plugged into a SATA 3 white port, you'll want to move it to the available data black SATA port and then use the newly vacant SATA port white for your new SSD or HDD.

    While you can certainly add another HARD drive in the Bay of secondary drive (you must also support and the connection cable) you can't boot from it - only in the Bay of primary HARD drive is bootable.

  • Add the second drive to ATC - 780

    I just purchased an ATC-780-UR61 with a 2.5 ssd "standard that I would add as a second disk as the startup disk and use the disk of 1 TB for storage. Now, I understand that there are only 2 SATA connectors on the motherboard - the one used by the 1 TB drive and 1 by the dvd player.

    Is it possible to add a second drive on this PC? I read some other models have a m2 connector to add a ssd drive to, but I don't see any documentation that the ATC-780.

    I can confirm:

    NGFFM1 m2 SSD connector

    It is on the right side of the motherboard near the SATA 2 ports.

  • Can I add another hard drive to my Mac Pro?

    End of 2013

    3.7 GHz quad core Xeon E5

    16 GB of ram

    500 GB Flash

    Ive run out of hard drive space. Can I add another flash drive or is it better to buy an external hard drive? If external which is more reliable Thunderbolt or USB 3?

    Go on everymac.com and find your model of Mac Pro for a good list of specifications and upgrade opportunities.

    I know "reliable." Limits of reliability are probably based on the envelope model and model also in car inside (not always easy to find) rather than the type of connection. Thunderbolt is probably faster but still a somewhat unusual connector to find so if you are looking for less cotly a USB3 will be cheaper and there will be more models available. Make sure you know that there is a reliable drive inside.

  • Pavilion x 2 10-n100na: can I add a hard drive from a HP Pavilion x 2 10-n100na?

    Can I add a hard drive to a Pavilion x 2 10-n100na? I noticed that some models in this range, for example. the Pavilion x 2 10-n107na, have a 1 TB drive. These 2 machines appear identical on the outside, so I was wondering if the 10 - 100na has all the required internal connections such as I could slot in my own hard drive.

    All answers gratefully received. Thank you.

    @Huffer

    I noticed that the manual indicates that it is for some models only, but unfortunately there is not any information about who they are.

    I have to disagree with you and say no.

    You cannot add a disk hard unless your x 2 is one of the special types.

    In the manual, you'll notice that even the keyboard, the coverage and the closing of the bottom are different. Take a very close look at this manual.

  • How can I add a second computer to my account?

    How can I add a second computer to my account?

    Your single license allows you to have two active facilities, which means that you can have it installed and activated on both machines.  You can have the software installed on the machines as much as you want, but only two of them can be enabled at any given time.

    With regard to the use of both machines at the same time, the jury's currently on it - I had the question of clarification, but has not yet received a response.  They have rewritten recently the license agreement and the portion that explicit, that you can not use both at the same time has been either deleted or moved somewhere else, I have yet to find.

    If you mean you want to have another machine under license for someone else to use, you must purchase a new license for this other person.

  • Pavilion a6500f: can I add a second SATA hard drive to my HP Pavilion a6500f?

    I have a HP Pavilion a6500f running Windows 7 Home Premium.  I would like to add a second hard drive to 500 GB 7200 RPM to it as a slave drive.  Can I do this?  And if I can how do I know what size must have the hard drive?

    That your system is 8 years old, I suggest you these:

    (1) clone the old drive to a new drive, either 500 GB or 1 TB.  Use it as your new drive system.  Modern Sata 600 drives are 6 Gbps with 64 MB of cache memory. It will have better performance than older Sata 300 players with 32 MB cache / 3 GB/s.

    (2) your old-school, like the reader of the term 'slave' was a reference to the IDE/EIDE, cabling system.

    (3) all you need is a standard WD or Seagate 7200 RPM disk 3,5 '' hard. Both offer a free disk assistant program to facilitate the process of cloning.

  • Re: How can I add a second internal hard drive to a Satellite Pro P200?

    I have a Satellite Pro P200 with a single internal hard drive. There is a second Bay in the computer of another internal hard drive, but I couldn't find any information about it. There is enough space for a 2.5 "SATA but I do not see a connector.

    I contacted Toshiba Dutch customer service who said that it was official policy not to provide any information on a second internal drive. They also said that they would not provide parts to make it possible.

    Can anyone provide more information?

    Hello!

    I think that if there is no connector you cannot add a second HDD.
    It of Nice to have a second Bay, but it's nothing without a connector.
