• Problems after installing the second SATA drive in Windows 7

  I just install a second SATA hard drive in Windows 7. Currently, I use only a processor AMD Athlon X 2 4800 with 3 GB of RAM, Windows 7 64 - bit, installed on a 400 GB Samsung SATA drive and have two (a pioneer and a Liteon) DVD burners.

  System worked fine until I put in the new drive. Previously, I had hung as such discs: SATA1 was the existing 400Go drive, SATA2 and 3 were two DVD burners (don't ask me why, I have 2, will remove one of them, if that's the problem).

  Installed the new HARD in the SATA4 drive. Booted up, saw the new drive in the BIOS, but Windows does not see it until I went to disk management, a drive letter assigned and formatted etc. Also, I swapped the drive letters so I had all of the HARD drive (I have my 400 GB split into two readers via the partition) and C: D: E: F: and G:, DVD players.

  Started, began to transfer data from D: to the new E:, and Windows crashes. No message error, everything freezes. Need to reset, and then allow Windows to check for errors etc. Return to Windows, same case again. I swapped the SATA cables so that SATA1 and 2 are the HARD drives and SATA3 and 4 are DVD players. Reboot, same case.

  What I am doing wrong? Or what should I do? I don't even have to start the transfer of data I just let WIndows running for 2 minutes and it automatically hangs again.

  If someone could help me as soon as POSSIBLE please, it would be fantastic. Thank you!

  I've been in contact with the provider, and Yes, that will take it back for Exchange. They gave me some ideas to try first, I'm going to do tonight; They asked me to check if the HARD disk is running on series complete ATA (SATA) mode and to enable the DMA if he asks me to. Otherwise, they said, try the fail-safe mode. Don't know if any of them are currently enabled etc but will find tonight.

  All else fails, I take that back! Simply means a 3 hours trip to Melbourne to make...

  Thanks again guys for your help.

• Adding a second SATA drive to e9250t

  I would add a second ATA drive on my desk e9250t. I think that everything should be simple: the motherboard has two spare SATA connectors and several additional power connectors from the power supply. Should I change something in the settings of the BIOS (I have no manual for BIOS)? I don't want NO of RAID, just two separate internal SATA disks - I assume that Windows 7 will be assigned the next available drive letter to the new drive. Am I missing something? If someone else did and has knowledge to share, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

  You'll be fine. Installing the drive as it comes out of the retail packaging. Partition and format the new drive clean through the console/computer management disk management and it will assign the next drive letter as you state (or any other letter you choose).  Right click on "computer" and select "manage" and the console appears, select disk management. It will ask you to open the drive is OK, then format, then you can assign the drive letter. If you have any questions the BIOS are accessible with F10, but as long as the new drive is not bootable it will not interfere with the successful launch of Windows 7 since the original drive.

• P6620f: Installation second SATA drive

  Motherboard installed: H-RS880-ALVORIX-ΜATX

  On two of the sata motherboard three plugs are in use, the other plug is white (S3) in color and I tried to use this one and no success.

  Windows hardware displays the hard drive, but it does not appear in the "Explorer".  I went into the CMOS in the hope that it would recognize the drive, but it does not appear there, the second time I rebooted the system, I get the following error "Master disk failure".

  I also bought the PCI Sata card only to find out it does not fit this motherboard.  According to the info on the motherboard, it must be a PCI-E x 16 connector, and I have not been able to locate one with a sata connection.

  What should I do to use the white sata connector?

  Thank you for your help.

  H ALVORIX-RS880-ΜATX has 4 Sata headers.

  

• Adding a second SATA drive to Desktop Pavilion m9070.uk

  Hello

  I inherited a new 1 TB WD SATA, but there naked (without cables and screws), and I want to add this to my office, already with a 500 GB WD SATA.

  I don't see any instructions on HP or this forum, so can I check some basic assumptions?

  (a) I need to buy a WD SATA cable to the motherboard? (no other wiring needed?)

  (b) if I want this to be the boot drive, then I connect, format as additional disk, install Vista and then (somehow) change that to be 'Master' - correct?

  Other printable suggestions welcome.

  Thank you

  How to install the new hard drive.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01176906

  To make the new hard drive your boot drive, you'll need to make your recovery disks. You must connect the new drive for the existing sata cable to make your primary drive.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00882383

  Then install the OS on the new drive.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00814731

  You will need another sata cable. Also, look on the power supply and make sure you have a spare for the secondary hard drive power cable. After you install the operating system on the new drive, you will need to format the old and set it as a secondary drive.

  P.S. not to use the software provided with the new hard drive to format. When you install the operating system, it will do all that for you.

• Second hard drive installation

  I installed a second SATA drive in my XPS 410.  I wanted to increase my internal storage space.  The system is configured with RAID in the BIOS.  I am running Windows Vista.  With the installed new drive and the new drive is enabled in the BIOS SATA configuration, I do not see the new drive when starting Vista.  I know that it is because the RAID is enabled.  If I go into the BIOS setup and try disabling RAID Vista won't start and gives me an error with options to attempt a repair or start normally.  In order not to damage others I go back and turn it on again RAID and let Vista Restart.  Once again, I get the error with the repair or restart option.  I did the repair option and Vista restore.  Everything is now back as I started.  My question is: can RAID go out without destroying the data on my C drive?  I checked the program Intel Matrix Storage Controller and it indicates that the original drive is not in an active RAID configuration.  So it looks like this could be done without damage, but it's scary, territory and I would like to learn more before you continue.  All the world is cela and what happens?

  
  

• DV7 discs, 1 or 2 sata drives?

  Repost this question, hopefully better written.

  Glancing dv7-7212nr. Chose this one because it is only for the model dv7 showing in full HD.

  He says he has a sata drive main, with a 32 GB "high drive".

  For not looking on HP, because everyone calls this 32 gb HIDING a player, but as it cannot be used for storage, it is not storage.

  So, I have the same confusion as before. Can this cause a real second sata drive? The specs do not mean that it can.

  Which is curious, because it is a quite remarkable possibility to hold your two disks. I think it would be a major point of advertising.

  What I need, is a C: drive ssd 256 GB, with a second large drive like D: 2 TB drive.

  (One way would be to use a disc usb external).

  The other way, its two internal SATA drives. Windows and crucial data on the ssd C:.

  So, I've set up this way, doesn't mean no cache 32 GB?

  It is even possible to fill with two internal SATA drives?

  Hello

  I refer to my machine (I hit it now):

  1. it is a dv7-7xxx machine,

  2. it has TWO DRIVES HARD 1 TB each and an SSD (32 GB as you already know).

  You always keep the 32 GB of SSD and use other 2 bays for two SSD or two HARD drives or everyone, whatever you like.

  Hope this answer answers your question.

• 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.

• You can a second Sata hard drive in the M series?

  Hello

  Can I install a second hard drive in the M series?

  In particular, I would like to install a Seagate Barracuda SATA 1 TB drive.

  I know he has a Bay, but I can shelter the disc in another case.

  Thank you

  I think it depends on the version of the m series that you have.

  the series m72e (small footprint); There is only a single 3.5 "sata bay.

  on the motherboard there are 3 sata headers (cd player / hard drive + 1 other).

  the way I did it was to order a double silverstone 2.5-online adapter disk 3,5 '' screwed into the slot of the drive (be careful; not all Player cards have lower fastening screws).

  This allowed me to put a ssd 2.5 "and a 2.5 hard drive" in the case.

  otherwise, it would be pretty tight/impossible to squeeze in 2 size 3.5 "hard drives in the m72e

• Second SATA hard drive not detected by Bios and Device Manager

  Original title: second SATA hard drive

  Hard drive not detected by the Bios and the device under Vista Home Premiun Manager

  Hi trinitario,.

  Because the hard drive is not detected in the BIOS also, it may be due to a hard drive configuration that should be changed or a rider. If you need to get in touch with a Local tech-store for assistance.

  Note: change in the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  What version of the OptiPlex 745, have you, the Mini Tower, Desktop, Small Form Factor, or the Ultra Small Form Factor?

  No, a SATA cable only supports a SATA device, unlike the cables obsolete IDE/EIDE which can take in charge two IDE devices.

• HP m9340f, install a second SATA hard drive

  Hello!  I tried to install a second SATA hard drive in my m9340f without success.  It is a 2 TB SATA drive, it should be compatible, but on the power of the system will not even to the last POST.  No message screen or the BIOS errors.  When I disconnect and remove the new drive, the system is back to normal.

  Anyone have any success installing disks second in this model of HP?  This is the first record additional SATA hard I never put in a system, then am I missing a step?

  Thank you!

  Thank you all for the quick responses!

  I was able to fix this by taking two actions:

  (1) I applied an update for my BIOS.

  (2) I went to a reader from different manufacturers.  A Hitachi 2 TB drive did not work, but a Western Digital works perfectly on the first attempt.  It was with the same cable and connection of motherboard that has not worked for Hitachi.

  Please mark this as resolved issue.

  Best regards

• Connect a second hard drive to SATA

  Hi all

  I have a Dell Inspiron 620, and I try to install a new Seagate 1 TB hard drive...

  

  I'm new to SATA and I need to buy a second SATA data cable, but I don't know what to order. The drive installed by Dell uses a blue cable, but this means that it transfers data to 6 GB per second? SATA data cables are color? Can I use a cable red, blue or black, or my Board does support 6 GB per second transfer rate?

  In addition, my hard drives are installed upside down, and that means I need a cable with left angle from what I can tell.

  I can post a label service if required (if it is not against the rules of the forum).

  Thank you very much.

  Rusty.07

  SATA cables are not chromocodes.

  No, blue does not mean a 6 gb / s, transfer, only Dell promotes the blue color as a symbol.

  Note: The Inspiron 620 is sata2 ports (3.0 GB/s).

  Yes, you will need a SATA cable with a 90 * connector at one end. Unfortunately Dell isn't all documentation to install an additional hard drive in the Inspiron available 620
