• How to add a second hard drive Ubuntu Server, that runs on vmware workstation 9

  Hello

  I am running vmware workstation on windows 9 8, and I installed Ubuntu 12.10 as a virtual machine on my SSD. I installed a second hard drive in the machine and use the "Add a HDD" feature on vmware workstation to add and pre-allocate space. The problem is that the drive does not appear in Ubuntu. I have checked/Media and / dev, I expected to see something like /sda *. It is a procedural step, I missed it, please help!

  Do I have to mount the drive in a special way? How can I check if it is properly attached?

  Thank you!

  What you said so far, it's like adding a second physical drive to a physical computer and the operating system cannot access until it was partitioned and formatted, and then it can be mounted.  To do the same thing in a VM!

  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.

• Add the second hard drive to a desktop Pc HP Pavilion P6-2100

  I want to add a second hard drive to a HP Pavilion A1700n Pc desktop to a new HP Pavilion P6-2100 Desktop Pc, so I can transfer files.

  milehisb,

  Welcome on the user forums.  Section manuals PDF from HP did not offer a guide to upgrade and Service.

  There are several options, depending on your needs and your expertise with the internal components of a computer.

  If you goal is to simply get the data off the drive, then put it back in the A1700n, I would use #1.

  (1) use this external adapter for occasional use:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812232002

  (2) first search to find if you have a spare Sata power plug. Or you will need an adapter (molex 4pin to Sata).

  As the player in question is VIsta, it does not start correctly and could delay the start of WIN7.

  Hello

  As far as I know you can build in a second HDD, but it must be defined as the slave HARD drive. If your has been defined as master he can be a problem, because in your case, there are two disks HARD masters.

  One of my friends already tried that, and it had success just at the moment where 2nd HARD drive has the same capacity as the first. Two of them were with a capacity of 80 GB.

  Configure the other as a slave, and then try again. If you have success, let me know.

  Good bye

• Add the second hard drive to HPE-400Z

  I am trying to add a secondary hard drive to expand the storage space that I only have 10% of free space on the current.

  "Will buy one online" Seagate Desktop drive HARD 2 to 7200 tr / MIN SATA 6 Gb/s 64 MB Cache 3.5 "-drive retail Kit internal (STBD2000101)" enters the cage OK? Existing drive is Seagate 1 TB guess so, but do not get it and discover it doesn't work.

  This disc has new SATA data and power cables.

  It is clear that there is a free connection of motherboard "SATA2" for data, I can see it. Sounds easy.

  What I can't understand is where and how the POWER cable is connected to... or what might be able to be used which already exists for power connectors in the office. There is a certain and they all have beautiful marking... "P3,"P8",...".

  I found instructions on installing hard drive on HP site... everything is clear for me except for this problem of power cable.

  Did he help me with that?
