How can I add a second hard drive for my dv7-3060us?
I am very short of space on my originally installed HP 500 GB hard drive and need more storage space. I have a new Seagate 750 GB drive, 7200 RPM and I would like to install it. When I opened the folder to access the second hard drive compartment, I was blocked when I have not found any pre-installed connector. What should I do to install this player?
Thank you!

How can I delate everything from hard drive except the OS
I want to remove all deLL iNSPIRON RUNNING xp, ELLES THE OPERATING SYSTEM.
Hello
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.
I understand that you want to remove all of the hard drive except the OS.
1 how many partitions you have?
Please follow the methods.
Method 1
If you have only one partition, in this case you will need to manually remove data that you don't want.
To uninstall the programs that you do not use, see the link.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/307895
You can also run Disk Cleanup tool, that helps you free up space on your hard drive
See the link.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310312
Method 2:
If you use multiple partitions, you can go ahead and format drives, except the partition where you installed OS.
NOTE: formatting the drive will remove all data and software installed on your computer.

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.

I cut and pasted and then a few important files from my laptop on an external hard drive. Since the external hard drive stopped working. Is it possible to find the files that have been moved?
Thank you!
(More info: I tried to recover the files from external hard disk but it requires a physical recovery and would cost over $ 1000, which I did not; also unfortunately I don't think I created backup via the "backup and Restore Center" files in the control panel).
It depends on how long you have moved the files, and how the computer has been used since.
If you have Vista Business, Ultimate or enterprise, you can use the previous versions.
Try these programs:
- Free: http://www.filehippo.com/download_recuva/
- $99, but the free trial version to see if it works before paying: http://services.seagate.com/eStore/Seagate-File-Recovery-for-Windows-P32C1.aspx

How to recover my data stored on an external hard drive now that I use a MAC
I bought a Sea Gate 2 to external hard drive for my Dell PC a few months back. It saved my whole computer and check everyday for any extra stuff back up. Recently, I switched to a MAC, and in a prime time could not open at all. However, I called door seafarers and they helped me set up my Mac so now I can open it as a hard drive. However I still do not see the material recorded from my PC. I was told that Windows has somehow compress the files when it is saved as a backup, and this is perhaps why I can't see my old files. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to help.
It's really a question you need to ask the experts of Mac (choose the forum that pertains to your variety of Mac). However, the information that anyone who will help you needs to know is what software created backup files. In other words, what "saved" your computer?
For example, you use Windows Ntbackup? You use software provided with the Seagate drive?
If you can open the Seagate on Mac disk, configure your Mac to be able to show file name extensions (the letters after the dot): http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh825.html and register this file extension to your aid application.
