  Product: F9J38UA #ABA

  Model: 17-e117dx

  Thank you

  Not in the way you probably do. Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  See Page 50. Unlike the Envy 17 and Pavilion dv7, Pavilion 17 has that a single hard drive Bay. The only way to add a second hard drive is to remove the DVD (optical drive) and insert a DVD to the hard drive bay adapter. The manual shows how to remove the DVD player and you can buy the adapter at amazon.com or jacobsparts.com. Note that this is a 9.5 mm thick disc, not a 12.7 mm. Both types are available. I do not recommend the adapter DVD player solution because you lose the use of the optical drive, and also because the interface of optical drive is usually not as fast as the main hard drive interface. Always fast enough for simple storage and you can run a video of her, but you do not want to edit the video of this disc, for example.

  If you decide to go the route of adapter DVD I would buy a large capacity 5400 RPM SATA 2.5 inches wide and drive hard thickness 9.5 mm. No sense in buying a reader more expensive high-performance.

• Portege 7100 - what size HARD drive it does support?

  Hello

  my old man (I'm a student, so no money for a new) Portege 7100 (ct) has a small hard drive, so I want to shift to a bigger... but what size HARD drive supports the 7100ct? (and that's a 1.8 "or can I use drives 2.5"?)

  thx for any help...

  Hello

  As far as I know that your unit has standard 2.5 "hard drive. Unfortunately there is no public record of such information. Accurate information, you can get that from accredited service partner or even some HARD drive supplier.
  In my opinion, your device must be able to manage with maximum up to 8 or 10 GB HARD drive. For me, we know that some offering it can manipulate the BIOS with special tools and after that BIOS recognize a much larger capacity HARD drive.

  Try to pick up some information on the net service partner or call your country. I believe that consultation service is free.

  Good bye

  You must open the Windows disk management console, then format the drive for use in the system.  You can find more information on this process here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-format-hard-disk-partition#create-format-hard-disk-partition=windows-7

• AG3-605-UR1C supports a second internal hard drive?

  I would add a second internal hard drive of my AG3-605-UR1C. Is this possible?

  If it's important, the player that I'm considering is Seagate Desktop HDDSATA.

  Thanks in advance for the answer.

  your PC has 4 SATA ports on the motherboard, so if you have 1 HDD and 1DVD, you have 2 spare SATA ports to be used, and there is too much room on the chassis.

• 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.

• HP 6120 t BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller

  Hello

  HP 6120 t (vista) BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller. The other SATA disk and the DVD player came with the machine.

  I hooked my old 200 GB Hitachi drive via the controller. I also put the jumbers in the present as a slave. I also took the original WD drive and just connect the IDE hard drive. BIOS do not show any drive at all.

  I would try something possible at this time I have a lot of my data on the old disk.

  Thanks appreciate any suggestion.

  Try to enter the BIOS and I believe under change of Advanced menu of SATA to IDE or Enhanced.

  You need to do when you install Windows XP or you will get a blue screen and it does not start.

  Don't forget chang back when you put it in your drive home hard sata.

• 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

• Envy 17 t J000 - maximum hard drive size and speed

  I'm going to put a 2nd hard drive into the open space in my Envy 17 t-j000.

  The States of Maintenance and Service Guide;

  Hard drives Supports 6.35 cm (2.5 in.) 9.5 mm hard disks (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in) (all hard drives use the same bracket)

  Customer-accessible

  Serial ATA

  Supports the following drives:

  ● 1 TB 5400 RPM, 9.5 mm

  ● 750 GB 5400 RPM 9.5 mm

  ● 500 GB 5400 RPM 9.5 mm and 7.0 mm

  Configurations to two hard disks:

  ● 2 TB: (1 TB 5400 RPM x 2)

  ● 1500GO: (750 GB 5400 RPM x 2)

  This seems to mean that I cannot use a single hard drive 2 TB 2 and cannot use a 7200 RPM drive.

  Is this correct? Bios denominator do not allow more than a drive of 1 TB or the 7200 RPM?

  CouldI partition just the 2nd 2-1 TB disk?

  Or the manual simply means that the standard unit of HP is not provided with larger than these sizes and I could actually use a 2 TB in the Bay of 2nd?

  It's the last... the list says just what HP sale: it does not describe a limitation of the system. However, I do not think that yet, the market offers a 2 TB drive that fits the available space. 2 TB 2.5-inch SATA drives I've seen are too thick. 7200 rpm or hybrid SSD; No problem.

  To add a second drive you'll need a second hard drive enclosure and cable.

• 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.

• HP Envy 17 t: what size usb drive is necessary for the recovery of HP Envy 17 t 10 (64-bit) Windows?

  I just installed my HP Envy and wanted to set up a recovery disk.  The USB key must be less than 32gigs, but the example has not been updated for Windows 10 the instructions say.  It shows a recovery screen for a laptop of Win8 with the source of recovery like 17 concerts.   Is there a way to check the requirements for the front to accept the HP one time recovery option.  I have a new 16 GB USB key and wanted to make sure that it is large enough.

  Also do a backup image to DVD?   If so, how many DVDs?   The laptop is new and I added only Chrome and some minor programs.  My data files are always on an external hard drive.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  To be honest, I don't know what size will be that these recovery files are because they can vary from the version of Windows to another. They can vary from a model.

  In my opinion, 16 GB is probably not enough.

  DVDs are usually 6 (6x4.7 GB = about 28 GB) but this can vary from one model.

  This possibility of imbedding maybe once, there are other ways that you can save your system indefinitely.

  This is a free option included in all windows (creating system image, it's free as included in Vista from the outset).

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03544793

  However, this option requires (e.g. USB HDD) external HARD disk or DVD. It does not work with USB flash drives.

• 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
