Can't access 2nd HARD drive on the Pavilion p6220nl?

I had installed a second HDD SATA in my Pavilion p6220nl desktop computer by unplugging the DVD/CD player with its SATA data and power cables.  He succeeded and I was using my regular hard drive so my new drive to HARD drive for several weeks.

Once my new SATA cable arrived, I tried to reinstall my DVD/CD player that I had also only 2 SATA power connectors.  Instead I tried to use very low power for the new HARD drive connector.  Result, I can not access my new HARD drive.  I tried back (i.e. unplugged my DVD/CD drive again and using this SATA power connector instead) and it still won't go.

I updated my BIOS and tried everything I can think of, but without success.  If anyone can help?  Is there indeed a Molex Pin 4--> adapter SATA connector?  Could I have ruined my new HARD drive with the two small connector and power cables attached SATA power connector?  Is there a specific SATA ports they need to go in.

Currently the situation is now:

SATA Slot 0 - drive DVD/CD (data cable connected only)

1 - usual HD SATA connector

SATA connector 2 - new HARD drive

Slot SATA 3 - empty

Appreciate any advice or assistance.

Thank you

Stephen

As you said, you had it working. Then attached a unknown thread on the disc. Now, reconnect to a wiring known, that worked. Don't know, don't worry. The car was damaged. Sorry!

  • Satellite P200-1EE I can install a 2nd hard drive in the Bay of spare?

    First of all, Hi everyone!

    I have the laptop model above, and he has a spare drive Bay. There are connectors for pins at one end, but it doesn't seem like the drive will fit. It's like there's a missing - like component case Connector for the 1st disk slot. I bought a 500 GB drive and tried to see if he would be in shape. The 1st disk has a metal basket attached, and who does not.

    Is it possible to install a 2nd drive for this model? If so, what would need to do?

    Thank you!

    Andy

    Hello

    If you have a connector in the second HARD drive Bay, you can add a second HDD. But you will need a wire basket as on the first HARD disk. Therefore, you can contact an authorized service provider because you can get all the parts on their part.

    On the Toshiba site Web is a list of all ASP s, check it!

  • 2nd hard drive for HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Notebook - what do I need?

    Hi, I have the HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Select Edition Entertainment Notebook (product # WV703AV). It can accommodate two hard disks but only came with one. What would need to be able to install the second hard drive? I need just a connecting cable or I also need to caddy or kit?

    Also, would I get a solid state? My laptop that would support or should I just use regular?

    Currently, I am on Windows 7 64-bit. I have a 500 GB hd (which came to be partitioned with hp tools/restoration).

    Help with what I would need to a conventional hard drive or ssd would be greatly appreciated. I tried to look through messages of others first, but could not find anything specific to my model. Thanks for your time!

    Hello:

    The only place I know where you can get a 2nd hard drive kit is that provider.

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&products_id=345

    Your laptop should be able to work with an SSD, but I can't guarantee it.

    I don't really see any point in adding an SSD unless you make the main hard drive, and to do this, you must get an SSD of the same size as the original 500 GB hard drive to use the recovery discs to reinstall the operating system.

    Most people get smaller SSD and they use the W7 product key to activate a simple installation of W7.

    If you can read all 25 characters of your product key for windows 7, you can do your own installation media and allows to install Windows on a smaller than 500 GB SSD.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Portege M750 - 2nd HARD drive in the Bay select instead of optical drive carrier

    I just bought I used Portege M750 because my M700 was broken. Unfortunately, the berries to choose between the two models are not compatible. Although the availability of a 2nd drive hard trolley is mentioned in the user manual, I couldn't find the part of the disk for the M750 caddy. I tried a standard SATA-SATA HARD drive caddy, but I get a message "select Bay error" at the start, although the caddy runs under windows, as long as you do not hibernate.

    Does anyone know the part no of the real 2nd hard drive for Portege M750 caddy / M780? Or is there another 2nd carriage of hard drive that works with the M750 without restriction?

    Hello

    I guess that you will need a hard drive caddy part number: P000452980
    Then you could place this in the Toshiba Ultra Slim PA3408U-2CTE and PA3408U-1ETC HARD disk adapter

    But you can also contact the Toshiba ASP in your country to get a confirmation...

  • You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

    I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

    You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

  • Can I add a hard drive on the U840T-108 Satellite?

    Hello
    I bought a Toshiba Satellite U840T-108 and I had not noticed that there was a 128 GB SSD drive. I would like to add 1 to or 500 GB Sata hard drive.
    Is this possible? T Y is the room in the computer?
    Thank you
    PS: I'm French so excuse me if I speak little English.

    I can see in paper manuals s user that your machine is not the cover of HARD drive on the lower side, so for an upgrade low cover has to be removed and it must be done by the only authorized service.
    If you try to do this alone you will lose warranty valid.

    In my opinion, you have to call the nearest provider of Toshiba in your country, explain the situation and ask for advice. Guaranteed valid is very important to not do something on your own.

    Either way, I think your machine has connector disk HARD vacuum placed near the ventilation of cooling. I m not 100% sure all of this, but you can check with the technicians.

  • Can I install second HARD drive in the Satellite A200-AH7

    I wonder if I can install the second hard drive in my laptop and if I can do this what equipment should I.

    Laptop computer has two covers of hard disk and manual is not clear on this subject.
    He said: some models.

    Thanks for the info

    You can't find the answer very easily.

    Remove the second HDD Bay cover and check if there are a few HARD drive connectors/pins.

    If Yes, then you could install a second HDD.
    If not, you can not use second HARD drive.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P200-1 - can I use 2nd HARD drive?

    Hello

    I am always working on my Satellite P200-1 and now, my HDD1 is full.

    I see that there is a location for a second HDD. But I can't find the plug!

    Therefore, it is possible to connect a second HDD on my satellite P200-1BY? Because I bought a new HARD drive and I can't plug it, I only have 7 days to return the HARD drive to the store.

    Thanks for your replies!

    Hello

    If the connector to the second HARD drive is not available there is no way to use two internal hard drives.
    This HARD back and buy HDD external, placed in the HARD disk box. This HARD drive you can connect using the USB cable and it is the best solution for you.

    I guess that HARD disk internal, you have lots of data that you don't need every day and you can save it to external HARD drive. So you can do free space on the internal HARD disk.

    I do the same.

    Good bye
