I have a HP Pavilion 500-267C, can I install a second hard drive in this PC?
My turn XP no longer works, but there is some information on the hard drive I want to recover my present
PC uses the Windows 7 operating system. Can my old hard drive be installed in the new HP without ruining the new
computer or the old hard drive?
Yes, implying that the old disks hard XP is in good health.
You can use a USB external hard shore caddy for the old disk or you can directly connect via the SATA port on your motherboard you new computer. 99% of the time there will be connections of additional power from the power supply on your new machine to feed the old drive.
All of this assumes that the old drive is SATA interface _ we IDE, in which case you would need an adapter to connect directly to the new MoBo computers.
I don't think that even though you can check to make sure there is no IDE USB external hard drive caddies.
The top is SATA and the bottom is IDE.

How can I solve this problem and have my admin and my user appear in the directory? My hard drive went out on me on my other computer, so I tried to slaves in the top of the tower. All other folders appear in my directory, but not users. There are default user on this subject. Can I use a data recovery software, but it will take a day and a half to get the files. I ran the program of restoration of data for a few hours and it has recovered some of the pictures I want. So I try to see if I'm doing something wrong, before investing in the recovery of the entire file. Thank you.

Can WRT1900ACS use an external hard drive with disks in RAID 0, 1, or JBOD?
Hello
Happy new year.
Is an external drive with more disks RAID 0, 1; JBOD compatible with WRT1900ACS?
I have this idea to tie a big (6-8 TB) external drive and use the DLNA feature as an alternative to a computer as NAS and DLNA server. The external drive could be four 2 TB Western Digital hard drives in RAID 0, 1; JBOD. The boxes can be:
- Western Digital my book Duo.
- IB-3640SU3 - external case of JBOD 4 x with eSATA and USB 3.0 for disks 3.5 "SATA hard.
I hope someone can help clarify if I have misunderstood something.
Concerning
Jan Rouvi
Hello. It is not recommended to use this type of enclosure with the WRT1900ACS, since most of this is managed by software that are installed on the computer. The software will not be able to detect hard drives, whether they are connected to the router and the router does not have this capability to configure drives in RAID 0, 1, or JBOD. The configuration of the router storage tool is just very basic. If you really need to configure RAID 0, 1, or JBOD in terms of network, you must obtain a SIN.

I recently formatted a WD external hard drive via my computer vista laptop. I downloaded several MB of files on the hard drive. My Vista laptop crashed and I need a new hard drive. I'm trying to access these files through my XP laptop. I see the DRIVE - "D". However, when I try to access the drive, what happens with "the disk in drive d is not formatted" do you want to format it now?
That fixed my problem. I can now access this drive.

The OEM Win XP OS can be installed on a hard drive to another PC to use the OEM PC?
Hello
I have a problem. My PC has only one hard disk, I could not format a new HD.
I need to rely on someone to get in shape for me.
If I give him my XP OEM installation disc to install this hard drive for the sake of practice, will it work?
If it works, I get this hard drive on my OEM PC and install it to start and use?
Or is it necessary for the installation will take place from the DVD on the PC OEM itself drive after formatting by a third party?
Thank you
Low
Hello
In addition to problems of licenses with the OEM licenses, you cannot install XP on a different computer and then swap disks as bad hardware drivers (motherboard, etc.) would then be included when installing.
"Or is it necessary for installation will take place from the DVD on the PC OEM itself drive after formatting by a third party?"
You don't need to get into shape by a 3rd party.
This should be done during installation

Can I install a new HARD drive and use an old backup
Just, I got my new Dell's HARD drive and need to install it in my Dim 9200. Can I use the old hard drive as a backup drive or secondary without deleting anything or reformatting? I have too many things on the old drive and am not crazy about cloning, I prefer to do a clean install of XP and be able to do things more when I feel the need. Is this possible or am I dreaming.
Has never done this before so I need help. Thank you.

After installing the new drive hard SATA and windows installation, etc. and when it works to your satisfaction, put the 'old' drive as the secondary, transfer all the files and folders you need in the new C: / volume, using the option "send to." Providing the old hard drive has no problems, then the format and partition the drive for additional storage.
Note. Only files and folders can be transferred, all programs and applications must be reinstalled from their records, or downloaded from the site of the publishers.
