  Hello

  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 secondary hard drive to dv7-3130eo

  Anyone know if it is possible to use the secondary hard drive Bay on the above model.

  I searched and could not know whether or not it is supported. If it supports this what should I use to add an sdd drive

  Yes, it can be used. You just need the hard drive caddy and the connector like the one that is in the hard drive Bay. They are available online or on eBay for maybe $45.

  Yes, the hard drive can be an ssd. SSD drives have the same physical dimensions and connections such as a SATA drive. You need the money because I just don't see prices of SSDS come down to where I think it makes sense to invest in one. I ran an ssd in my last laptop... paid about $400 for a concert 128 2 years ago and I don't think they are much cheaper now, although they are better I guess. It was all that (fast, quiet, cool), but it was nagging little glitches on writing on the disc and occasionally she just sat there for a few seconds and think about doing something. I changed a standard 7200 RPM drive.

• Can I add a third hard drive to h9 Pavilion HPE currently have an SSD drive and a SATA drive?

  HP Pavilion HPE h9 (Phoenix), win 7 64

  Can I add a third SATA drive to my system?  The specs say three bays are available, but when I ordered it I could not add a third (or greater than 1 TB drives).  Is there something on the SSD that changes the spacing of the drive Bay?  I prefer not to take the walk outside if there is no way to add another drive.

  Hello

  Please report the number of HP for your PC product.

  You review this article and video?  You will need to remove the cage hard disk to install the third hard disk. In general, the SSD is in the middle of each side mounting with HDDs of 3.5 ".  Hard drive cage is made for three hard disks.

  The specifications indicate theProvisioning for three hard drives on this particular model. The firm seems to be the same as the other two models HPE H9.

• Can I format my secondary hard drive on another PC?

  I understand that you format a secondary hard drive before using this, but what happens if I format it in another computer and place it in another computer? I basically want to just send my files on the secondary hard drive then put the hard drive in another computer and transfer the files on the primary. Should it be formatted when installed in another computer, every time and will it be ok if I just send my files to real vivid primary in another computer? Thank you

  Format on a computer and you can use it in all that are supported by the type of file system.  Use NTFS for windows computers.

• Satellite X 200-219: can I add a third HARD drive

  Hello

  First I will say large laptop (although more frequent updates to the screen driver would be nice: D).

  So, I was nosy kicking on the Intel Matrix Storage console, and it turns out that I have an unusued port (port 1).
  Means that it is possible to add another internal hard drive of my laptop?
  Or is it wishful thinking on my part?

  Another question: is there any room for a third HARD drive in all cases?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I talked to a technician for laptop and the third HDD is not possible
  The laptop was equipped with a 2 hard drives and a Max which is possible

  Don t know what you mean by a free port, but it is certainly not a third SATA HDD controller

• Can I add a second hard drive on the Qosmio X 500-12 q?

  Hello
  I would like to know if its possible to add a second hard drive to the X 500-12 q?
  I suppose that space is available, but I would like to know whether the connector is here & all
  I could just open the case and plug it in.

  Thank you

  In the document s user manuals I have not found something on HD upgrade so I m really don't know if this will be possible.
  Anyway, as Jeka wrote, remove the HARD drive cover and check if there is place for second HARD drive and also necessary SATA connector.

  I have older 300 x and there is room for two drives.

• 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.

• 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.

• How can I add a second hard drive for my dv7-3060us?

  I am very short of space on my originally installed HP 500 GB hard drive and need more storage space. I have a new Seagate 750 GB drive, 7200 RPM and I would like to install it. When I opened the folder to access the second hard drive compartment, I was blocked when I have not found any pre-installed connector. What should I do to install this player?

• can I add an internal hard drive of my elite 9240f? How?

  HP Pavilion elite 9240f with a single hard drive and two dvd workouts. Windows 7

  Sure. You should probably upgrade the PSU as there may be not a spare PSU OEM s - ATA power connector. You will need to check visually than yourself. There are SATA ports available for the additional disk. Use one of the bays empty 5.25 ". Buy a SATA hard drive that is not longer than 2 TB. You will need to apply update firmware of SATA drive from the web support portal. If the hard drive firmware update is not applied, you can have problems with registration of data on hard drives.

  I'm not sure the ports that are SATA2 (available literature does not indicate it).

  

• Can I exchange a secondary hard drive?

  I have a system with a 500 GB secondary drive I want to swap in a new system.  Can I plug it into the new system and keep all the data?  Thanks in advance

• where can I add a third hard drive to my hpe-140f?

  I read somewhere that a 3rd HD can be added.  HD cage holds only two disks.

  Are there instructions available on how to add a 3rd disc?

  Thank you

  Fiery,

  You had the unit apart before and removed the envelope PMD/combination drive Bay to install the 2nd HDD.

  The only 2 places available would be the Bay PMD or the 2nd Bay of CD/DVD drive.

  The easiest is the 2nd CD/DVD Bay, because it requires only a standard kit of 3.5 to 5.25.
