• I want to add a second hard drive for my Pavilion Elite HPE 410f. Recommendations?

  I want to add a second hard drive for my Pavilion Elite HPE 410f. Recommendations?  Somewhere in the 320 to 500 GB range and I want a quick unit because it will be used for rendering videos.    Thank you for your response.

  Hello

  How fast is fast is the real question.

  Have you looked at hybrid drives OCZ? Expensive but probably the fastest option.

  Seagate also made a hybrid hard drive.  Good price... You will need a 3.5 "to 2.5" support if the player does not support.  If you install the drive in an empty optical Bay then you will need a 5.25 "to 2.5" support.

  Your other choice is 7 200 or 10 000 rpm traditional hard drives.

  Another option would be to add a PCI sata and two external hard dirves configured in RAID 0.

• Adding a 3rd HARD drive to my Pavilion elite m9150f

  I have a Pavilion Elite m9150f with a motherboard Asus IPIBL-LB. I have 6 sata ports, but only 4 are currently used. It has Vista Home Premium 32-bit running 2 HARD sata drive seagate 360 with a partion recovery and 2 CD/DVD players. I would add a Seagate 2 TB sata as main drive (C) both a bigger partion (posibly update of OS in the future) 20 to 25 GB for recovery (D) copied to starting from the origanal and reformat it as a temp for videos, etc. I can do this by moving the SATAS after the cloneing and move the optical drives and see MOBO them without having to make all kinds of changes to the BIOS. Thanks for any advice in doing so.

  Hello

  If you have already two drives hard and two optical drives, then you will have a hard time to find a place inside the PC to secure the third hard disk.

  You could try to use a 5.25 "to 3.5 adapter railsand then fix them and the hard drive down inside the PC. Another option would be to expand the two ports of the vacant motherboard to the I/O back plateand use a drive external eSATA dockthat could accommodate two hard disks that are either 2.5 "or 3.5" or a combination. That would give you great flexibility for the exchange of different hard drives while appearing that they are installed in their own country.

  You should be able to use a hard drive imaging product to the new hard drive the current boot drive. If you use VISTA then I would avoid using a disc hard format model advanced unless you know for sure that the disc produced Imaging align correctly partitions. In any case, if you use VISTA then upgrade to service pack 2 and run this update Intel utility before you install the new hard drive. Utility update driver Intel Intel Driver Update Utility level Bios 5.43is the latest bios for your PC.

  I use Paragon Hard Disk Manager Suite(eval copy) to make the imagery of my hard drive, but there are other products available. Macrium Reflectand Acronis are also good products.

• Adding 3rd hard drive for HP Pavilion Elite m9250f

  I have a Pavilion Elite m9250f running Windows Vista Home 64 bit. The computer currently has two 500 GB hard drives for a total capacity of 1 TB. I would like to add a third drive to increase storage capacity.  I have a SATA to 2 to and cables. When I tried to install the new drive above the two existing disks, he did not slide smoothly. When I removed the already highest reader, I could slide the new drive into but the screws are not line up properly with the new drive. This leads me to believe that I can not install a third drive in the Bay. Is this a correct assumption?

  I have an available expansion Bay below the optical drive but am not sure that it is usable for a hard drive. If the use of the expansion Bay is possible, do I have to buy a hook or how to mount the drive in this space?

  If necessary, I can copy the data from the secondary drive on an external drive and replace it with the new drive. However, I need confirmation that the secondary is the player in the foreground of both in the hard disc enclosure.

  Thank you for your help.

  If the task under the existing optical Bay is open, just use an adapter to fill the space and to mount the drive in there.  Make sure of course that there is a power cord and a SATA port.

• Need help with a new hard drive in pavillion wiring elite M9400

  Hello fellow owners HP,.

  I recently bought a 1 TB hard drive for my Pavilion Elite M9400T.  I done my share of reading about installing to a new hard drive to another former post office and know how to physically install the disk in the slot, but my question starts with the wiring.

  I have a M9400T and saw the video of the installation here in this post.  I read to the bottom when he talks about the installation of additional hard disks into the empty Bay and had questions about the son in photo 5 on the photo below. I realized that I needed a Sata cable, so I bought one today, but I wonder if I can use other cables inside the case already for power. And who will be all I have to do to get this properly installed disc? I took pictures so that it would be easier for me to ask for help.

  

  

  A and B belong to my main hard drive and I want to know if I can use D (unused but looks like B) and a Sata cable bought my 2nd hard drive. I also noticed that B is related to C, which leads to the motherboard, so I didn't know if I needed to do the same for the 2nd drive.

  

  Connectors SATA 1 and 6 are taken by my hard drive and DVD drive (I think) cannot so I just put my 2nd hard drive on one of the remaining of the caps of 2-5?

  Thanks in advance for any and all tips and suggestions.

  BTW, I I was able to install the sticks of memory 2x2gb today without any problems for a total of 6 GB today but no matter what slots? I added the 2 slots of the fan and it seems to work very well.

  SO, Yes, you can use power connector would be ' for your new hard drive.  If you look closely at the image of a ' and follow the Red wire, it runs directly on the white molex (P4) beside the PSU connector.  He doesn't have to go to the motherboard.  Is not feed all the other components.

• Replace the HARD drive in the new Pavilion Elite HPE-180 t.

  I'm not a professional computer, but after 30 years of use, the upgrade and repair PC home and the office, I'm embarrassed to post this thread - but here goes.  I took delivery of a few days ago the new highest indicated HP computer model in the topic of this thread.  The new computer is beautiful and everything worked perfectly from the start.  I decided after a few days to check, everything was fine and proceeded to a few pieces of hardware to transfer from my old Dell (a fairly new 1 t WD SATA HDD on which coied got a lot of data from the former count and a new BD/DVD ROM SATA optical drive).  Everything was fine once I figured out how to get these two drives in the enclosure waterproof on the new computer, but all reconnecting the SATA cable on the main came with the computer HARD disk, I broke up some pins on the HARD drive that made it of course useless SATA port.  I of course take full responsibility and do not wish to get involved with HP technical support to replace the disc - and frankly, I prefer not to put another HDD Seagate support because I prefer a 1 t Cavier Black SATA WD which I believe is one of the most reliable RESEARCH on the market right now, and I can buy it for around $200 instead of the $400 I uknderstand fresh HP for the same size of Seagate replacement.

  Here's my question, can I just buy a new HDD WD and install it with my own final Win 7 x 64 without the HP recovery disks (they did not come with the new computer, and I had not yet created my own recovery disc).  Frankly I'd rather have a completely clean install of my Win 7 OS without the HP partition and other HP software on the HARD disk.  Is this possible or HP has some sort of identity with their software which must correspond with the BIOS or something like this?  REALLY, I don't want to return the computer to HP to get called into service because I just started a small business that involves a lot of video editing and I can't be without the computer for weeks, while HP is concerned with him (I've read the horror stories about the high cost of the repairs and the long repair time but I do not wish to keep my warranty if possible).

  I have the same PC, only the model number has been changed.  Yes, you can use your own license W7 and install it on another drive or a replacement drive.  You can get the drivers from the HP site web support HPE-180 tfor your PC or other sources.

• Upgading A Pavilion Elite HPE hard drive

  First off let me thank the guy who responds to this advance. It may be a few days before I have the chance again. Sometimes the unknown Warrior keyboard deserves a bit more then they get lol. So, thank you.

  I have a HP Pavilion Elite HPE. I just took my first slap to upgrade certain hardware and now I have a FEVER. I should have noted some things while I was there, but I was a little excited to get it working again. I noticed a few differences in my template to the list for the Pavilion Elite HPE, I found this site, but I should be able to answer your questions with a quick glance to see if it's right. HP presents my motherboard as "MS-7613 (lona-GL8E)" but I'm sure that my Board is a Foxconn version 1.01 Aloe with a 3.0 GHz AMD Phenom II x 4 processor.

  Then. Here's my question, can I put my 1 TB harddrive to two 2 TB drives? And you have any recommendations on which hard drive I use? I'm new at this and so I don't know I might miss information on this for you, but I think I can answer your questions on hard/software that I use.

  Thanks, Escar Frazzle.

• HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 500f D: SSD replacement for HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f to original desktop PC hard drive

  Hi all!

  I would like to replace the original hard drive came with my desktop HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f with an SSD, but when I tried, I got the error message that my SSD drive was not big enough. The original hard drive is 1.35 TB. What size an SSD should be to replace the original CT 1.35 supplied with my HP so that I could use the 1.35 disc as my second drive and the ssd as my main drive?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Yes I think a 240 GB SSD would be sufficient.  Using the hard drive for storage is a good idea.

  These articles HOWTO HP should be useful.

  You should be able to install the SSD in the existing hard drive cage as it is put into service for three hard drives.  Use a 2.5 "to 3.5" adapter.  You also need a SATA data cable.

  Don't forget to create the external recovery media and backup your data.

• Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

  My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

  I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

• Pavilion Elite HPE-170F recovery problem

  I woke up yesterday to a problem of blue screen on my Windows 7 Pavilion Elite HPE-170F.  Following reboot, but would end up the same way.  Tried to boot mode without failure, but same result.  A technician came to the House and he did Diagnostics with its test disc that says the HD had to be replaced.  I had my recovery disks that I made when I bought the computer 4 years, which made her happy.  He installed the new HD and put the old in another location, planning to transfer my files after the restore.  He began the process of recovery with disk 1 and told me to change the disks as needed while he went to see another client.  All done and then it entered into startup mode of windows. went black for a while and then gave me the message "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on hardware.  The technician returned and tried other things but the same results.  We ordered a new series of HP recovery disks but will take a week.  The question, since the instructions say to disconnect everything except the monitor, keyboard, and mouse, would be the printer that is wireless a problem and should it be turned off?  Also, the mouse and the keyboard are different than the original, which would be a problem.  In addition, Windows installed several updates of the day before the problem.

  I venture a guess the your computer uses an Intel chipset, can be set to "RAID", and the replacement of the hard disk is a disk AF (Advanced Format). Please see desktop HP - can not recover the PC after replacing the Hard Drive with an AF Drive (Windows 7 and Vista) for more information on this topic. Please see computers HP-HP System Recovery troubleshooting (Windows 7) for more information on the AF drives and some troubleshooting tips.

  Alternatively, if you can still read the Windows product key of 25 characters on the COA Microsoft attached to your computer, you can install Windows 7 using this key. Please see "how to install Windows 7 without the disc" to get instructions on how to download Windows 7, create the installation media and install Windows 7 using the product key 25 character of the COA Microsoft on your computer. Using this method will not install HP customizations or value-added software and you will have to manually install all necessary drivers.

• HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f desktop PC

  HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f desktop PC - I would like to upgrade food, video card and hard drive. Can I use a SATA III hard drive? Can I use a 4 Gig ATI video card? Those are the weak links in this computer in the measurement of performance, Windows 5.1 index. The ram has already been updated to 16G. I would use a hard drive WD Black edition.

  Thank you!

  You can use a SATA-III HDD but the 785G chipset only supports SATA-II. You won't see any difference, and the SATA-III is backward compatible. You have a 300W power supply. You can put in a better and with a minimum 500 or 600 watt PSU, you can install any videocard, pcie 16 x which will be in good physical shape. In retail offices, there is simply not as much space as in a custom build Tower and best video cards these days are huge things two locations. Don't forget, it fits with room to spare, or you will have problems of air circulation.

• Pavilion Elite HPE: Network adapter missing?

  Greetings. My Pavilion Elite HPE is about 2-3 years of age. Recently, he has crashed hard and does not work. I was able to reinstall Windows 7, but I lost all my data and programs. Now, the computer works, but cannot connect to the internet. HP said to contact Microsoft and Microsoft told to contact HP. Then Microsoft recalled and said tell HP computer model number and they can tell you which network card is necessary. Then I can download? Not sure if I need to hardware, software, drivers, etc.. Help, please!

  OK, try this. Apologies, I took a guess, but I didn't know that you don't have another PC in the House. If it wasn't that, I was hoping that you can upload to another PC and try the others. It must be one of these two (probably the first):

  Original Realtek Networking Controller Driver 7.26.902.2010 Rev a 1.7 MB 10 June 2013 download terms of use details HP

  Pretty sure that the second one is for your ethernet port. You want to install this one too, if you think you'll connect at any time directly to a router via the ethernet adapter.

• Pavilion Elite HPE (HPE-210y): Travel in RAID 0

  Hi all.

  Recently, I upgraded my hard drive of 1 TB to 2 TB. I bought two hard drives of 2 TB because I planned to run RAID 1, but after that I cloned one of the 2 TB drives and removed the old 1 TB, I decided to save in a different way.   I have most of the things I wanted to back upward again on the old hard drive and another method seemed to be a better route. My uses of son for a little game and RAID 1 seemed to be struggling against productive and not as safe.

  So, I'll be able to move my new drive 2 TB in RAID 0 with my other new 2 TB drive even if I use one right now?

  Else consider this computer Noob?

  Once more, I find myself at the mercy of the much more educated HP Forum members lol.

  Hello

  HP's instructions for configuring RAID using the AMD RAIDXpert. Read at least twice.

  Check your BIOS settings and make sure that the SATA is set to RAID.

  I suggest you connect hard drives to ports SATA 1 and 2 (blue and white). Among the old HP AMD motherboards we're picky about which ports SATA would be supported RAID.

  

  BTW - RAID 1 is much more secure that it will provide redundancy in the event of a hard drive failure and RAID 0 won't.

• New graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t

  Hi, I'm getting artifacts screen sporadically, Ithink my video card is starting to go bad. I want to get a new one, but I do not know what will fit. My computer HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t:

  • Intel Core i7 - 860 quad-core processor [2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 + 8 MB of cache N3 shared]
  • 8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM
  • 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s
  • 1 GB ATI Radeon HD 4850 [2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters]
  • LightScribe SuperMulti DVD burner
  • Player 15-in-1 memory cards, 1 USB, 1394, audio
  • No TV Tuner
  • Creative Sound Blaster X - Fi Titanium

  I see by a few other questions here several cards video suggested, but these responses were a few years old and these video cards are no longer available.

  So, any suggestions on the new video cards less than $200, which will be more apt to little and works as easily as possible? Thank you!

  OK, I got my new video card, to be exact of it:

  http://www.Amazon.com/XFX-250E-800MHz-graphics-R7250EZNP4/DP/B00JM5XX9O/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

  http://www.xfxforce.com/en-us/products/AMD-Radeon-R7-series/AMD-Radeon-R7-250E-core-Edition-R7-250E-znp4

  It works like a champ! Took me about 5 minutes to install the card physically and 15 minutes to install all drivers and updates.

  So far so good - everything seems OK, so if anyone is looking for a video card for this configuration, it worked for me.
