Double hard drive Lenovo E430

I replaced the DVD with a case of SATA Caddy for 2.5 hard disks.

Everything works correctly, the bios detects the second hard drive. I install Windows 7 without any problem

BUT when I use WINDOWS 7 I DETECT a SERIOUS PROBLEM:

The system with two hard drives, the first is an SSD (Crucial M4) and the second a 7200 RPM hard drive (original disc), do not restart or turn off. I have try several combinations of BIOS and original windows 7 drivers also last Intel 7 Series driver SATA.

Nothing works!

The partial solution I found is to switch off the second drive hard through hotswap safely turn off, extract the drive hard and after that when I select Restart or shut down, the system takes a few seconds additional and work.

In my view, that it is a BIOS issue becuse this problem happened with the original Windows SATA driver and also with the latest 7 series Intel Chipset drivers. I try with the legacy of Partition BIOS MBR and Partition GPT of UEFI, in both cases the same problem.

When I unplug the power supply cable to turn off the laptop, sometimes Don t pc detects the SSD with error detection, so I BIOS fast change detection and the laptop detects the SSD.

Please check this problem inside the laptop BIOS

I have my E430 an Intel SSD of 330 in the HARD drive Bay and the original 500 GB HDD in a HARD drive caddy, I bought on ebay. I installed a fresh Win7 Pro on the SSD (under the Legacy BIOS option) and reinstalled Win7 HP on the HARD drive (under the UEFI BIOS option). I have no problems starting and stopping on the part of readers. The only problem I've noticed is that when stopping down, HARD drive sometimes of parks the heads with a loud noise (as if suddenly).

  • Hard drive Lenovo

    My Lenovo W500 has been pre-installed with Windows XP, but I decided that I wanted to try Vista 64 Ultimate, before I made the choice to see what OS I was going to use. I used a 5200 Hitachi 160 GB spinning hard drive to install Vista 64, so I wouldn't overwrite the original hard drive comes with the PC. I decided I like the 64 so I'll put up on the original with the 7200 spin hard drive, but wanted to know what things I need to save before making the switch.

  • Double hard drive

    I want to create a backup of my computer. It is not a copy dinky of my photos and important documents: I would like to create an exact copy of everything on my computer (drivers, programs, etc.) so that, in a sense, I have two computers identical (well, hard drives). With this backup, if I lost my phone today I could just start another computer from my backup and be ready to go (and, for example, bought programs such as Microsoft Office ask me my long lost subscription key). I've scoured the web and have read a number of descent of the literature on the subject, but I can't find anything that says that he will do exactly what I described. (Maybe because I'm not familiar with the jargon, I did not fully understand.)

    I want to reach even possible? Otherwise, what is the next best thing?

    What you want to do is the clone of the hard drive. This is an exact
    copy of it. There are many backup programs that can do this; Just look at
    for the word 'clone' in their specifications.

    However, cloned the disk, then you will need to mount the
    Clone on another computer which was identical (or almost) to the
    the original one. If it was quite different, Windows does not work, and
    you need to do at least a repair facility and possibly a
    clean install.

    So if you are serious about it, the thing to do would be to
    buy a computer laptop the same now. However, since you are running Windows
    XP on it, your laptop is old enough so that you will not be able to do.
    Any other laptop you bought would almost certainly be enough different
    to ensure that the overall plan would not work.

  • DV7-4280us - Bay of disk HARD 2nd vacuum has no visible connection to a 2nd HARD drive.

    My laptop Pavilion DV7 and previous DV8 had two bays for HARD drives, one of them wired to a hard drive, but not containing is not a hard disk at the time of purchase.  I expect the same thing when I ordered this Pavilion DV7-4280us, which is, I think, made in China, but I have not the same.  This one came without visible connectors for the hard drive, I had already bought to install into the empty Bay.  My Technical Support call made me advice to buy a disc kit hard (with caddy & connections) from HP, as if the receive connectors were available in the drive Bay HARD vacuum.  I didn't not agree because (and the next two paragraphs I added so that the well-intentioned forum members continue to give me the standard answer for laptops which actually have the usual connectors & waiting in the drive Bay HARD 2nd vacuum.  I appreciate the two forum members who have offered help so far, but there is no need to waste more based on my failure to clarify the problem):

    There is NO METAL NAKED INTO THE BAY VOID that COULD CONNECT a HARD disk.
          UNLESS A NEW CONNECTOR GOES TO THE MOTHERBOARD HARD DRIVE, IT IS USELESS FOR THIS COMPUTER.

    Each HARD drive connector I've seen only connects the HARD drive to a connector in the HARD drive Bay.

    The connector of the latter reaches the motherboard, and that the connector does not exist in this 2nd computer HARD disc Bay.

    Even if I could get a cable to connect a HARD drive to an unused connection & waiting on the M-Board, I can't M-Board.  M-Board is inside a barrier which could be called the bottom of the laptop - external surface of the portable computer.  (Battery and bays for HARD drives are outside the confines of the current computer, the value in their own hollow spaces in the bottom panel, with secondary coverage on the hollow spaces, i.e. the bays for HARD drives and storage media).  I looked for a way really open the casing and expose the M-Council connection for 2nd HARD drive (IF it exists); but I didn't know how to do it.  It is clear to me that this is not intended to be a facility run by the user. But I would if HP (or maybe even a 3rd party who made it) provided some good instructions.

    I'd like to think that HP did not make this change to the line DV7 laptops to double HARD drive, and that the Chinese manufacturer made the change without approval or even knowledge of the management of HP.  I want to believe that because he was, at best, a really stupid thing for HP to the customers who pay for the best HP can provide.

    So my questions are the following:

    1. The motherboard in this computer still has the ability to manage a 2nd hard drive?
    2. If 'NO', then HP would be willing to take over this very disappointing computer in Exchange to a DV7 which is equipped with HARD drive connectors available in the 2nd, empty, Bay?
    3. If 'YES', then
    4. HP or someone else would be willing to provide connectors, and instructions for me,
    5. OR install the missing connection to the drive for me, Bay
    6. While, in both cases 4 or 5, I can install a HARD drive in the Bay, empty 2nd drive reasonably, I expected when I ordered this computer?

    All my apologies and thanks to KaLin0908, who responded so quickly and helped me realize that my original description was not clear enough.  I hope that my changes to clarify the problem have not ruined the tone of my call.  I'm aiming for "clear and grateful."  If this revision reads as Loud or Yelling or abrasive or anything else bad, I'd appreciate any suggestions to improve it.

    I have the same computer.

    At first seems like you say but

    If you look carefully the second Bay of hd, you will see 4 small holes

    Those who are for the hard drive caddy, you can buy that and it's expensive

    You should also buy a hd cable, but be careful, there must be about 5 inches long

    The cable for 1 hard disk does not work

    One end goes on the hard drive and the other going to the MB. The connection is planned

    for the memory modules

    The kit costs about $ 45. If bought at hp and about 35 if purchased by another company

  • Install Windows from secondary hard drive

    I have a sony vaio vgn-ar825e I am trying to install windows 7 on. Because it's a double hard drive, I put a second hard drive in it with windows 7 already installed on it. Is it possible to install windows from disk hard secondary to primary works hard drive?

    AFAIK, you can boot from a second internal drive, but your BIOS must be able to select the second drive, and I'm not sure that the average laptop BIOS has the ability.

    You better boot and install from a flash drive. In addition, it is a good idea to remove or unplug the secondary internal drives during the installation of an operating system...

  • Install Windows 7 in order to cover both hard drives?

    I saw some laptops that come with two hard drives and Windows 7 seems to have been installed in order to cover the two hard drives. I'll buy a new laptop and replacing the average performance double hard drives with Western Digital Black Edition 750 GB disks hard performance; 5 year warranty compared to normal 3 year warranty.

    I will also be upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 (the system comes with Home Premium x 64) and I want to do is to install the system by using any method is used to Pierce two readers and maybe same strip between readers for best performance. Laptops I've seen configuration as this does not have built in raid controllers so I think there must be some option in Windows 7 Setup / partition process to allow you to do this, but I could not find information on exactly how do you this. Can you point me to instructions or describe the process?

    Thank you

    -Chris

    Most new laptops come with a single hard drive.  It is often divided into two 2 partitions: the primary local drive (which has the Windows operating system installed) and a recovery partition (including the Windows system files necessary to perform a systrem recovery operation). For optimal performance, Windows 7 must be installed on only one hard drive. Laptops are not supported for RAID configuration.

  • Identify the second hard drive

    I have a Pavilion dv7-6175us contained a 750 GB hard drive on the card.  At this time, HP sold some similar portable with dual 320 GB drives, but none has been mentioned on this issue on this model.  So I predicted, there would be a free Bay on the disc.  Yet there are two disks.  I checked the HP System utility and on records, he lists a disk 0 with 4 partitions: (0) 199MB, (1) 684 GB, GB of 14.34 (2) and (3) 102,87 MB.  Under the heading of disks, it shows a 684 GB C:, D: 14.34 GB (recovery) and F: 98.87 MB (FAT32 HP Tools).  Nothing lists a disc 1.  Can someone tell me what is the second disc?

    I did some additional research for this series of laptop and came across this maintenance and service guide.
    http://goo.GL/C3uNc

    Page 6 lists configurations available hard drive that came with this series. According to her, the 750 GB configuration is a double hard drive configuration. However, this adds not enough upward. It is noted that the maintenance and care guide for all series within the d7-6000 family.

    Two hard drives of 750Go total, they will have to be 375 GB for each hard drive following the common practice of using two identical hard disks.
    375 GB is not a standard size or that I've ever seen for a hard drive.

    Looks like that hard disks have not been removed after reviewing a previous post. Because of the conflicting information from HP sources, would it be possible for the two drives be removed temporarily to inspect? I suspect a step maybe a hard disk but a shell of one to serve as a placeholder.
    Once removed, the hard drive must be written on them. If they are both hard drives, please post back the size displayed on them. As I have already said, standard RAID practices should not lead to 750Go.

    I really hate for your purchase of hard disk to be in vain.

  • suspect the hard drive died, solutions?

    My 3000N200 0769 AUU now has a problem starting after I closed the lid for quick access and it will not start by using safe mode. I'm guessing that the hard disk is dead.

    Sometimes it will start on Windows XP startup, then it restarts, usually it goes into safe mode.  I can get the splash of Lenovo asking to select it using Lenovo.  But who doesn't either.

    I inserted a disc of free software alternatives sata hard driver Lenovo, its message is "NT LDR" is missing. That I expected.

    What is the process to get the restore disc or download?

    Hello

    For Lenovo disk recovery simply call Lenovo support and they will guide you through the process to get them. In addition, there usually is a recovery partition on the original hard drive provided with the Lenovo.

    Thank you

    We have computer laptop lenovo V580c whose HARD drive died - he was already 2 times lol refubrished and it died again. It has Windows preinstalled 8/8.1 and we have upgraded to Windows 10 recently. But as the HARD drive is dead, we need to reinstall the system on the new drive (we of this msata ssd). In any case, I tried to start Notepad with DVD with burned ISO of Windows 10 clean image, but the laptop won't boot from the DVD all of a sudden. No change in the BIOS could help solve - laptop everything simply does not recognize any drive now. He goes through all the boot options and stopped at the initialization of the network which we have not. And then, we see just a small windows with the boot option that do not in any way. Here are some photos: http://imgur.com/a/6R185 http://imgur.com/a/112HY http://imgur.com/a/K1k8Q I have tried BIOS posible lall lifestyles, responsible security settings, used UEFI/legacy/the two, disabled/enabled secure boot. Nothing helps and the laptop is literally unusable now because it's not accept any storage/disk to start. I even tried to remove any startup as HARD drive unit, DVD and new msata I tested before. Computer laptop while still not trying to boot. Of course, it is out of warranty now. What can I do to fix it and make acept to boot from the DVD again? I don't want perair service because it wil cost us money. This product should work in the first place. We had so many bad experience with lenovo with this laptop that I won't buy another their product more.
