  I need to add a second DVD drive in HP p6243w my wife

  see dvd installed in SATA1

  hard disk on SATA0

  The new dvd player will connect to SATA2 or SATA3.

  Thank you

  It doesn't really matter the CD/DVD drive is connected to SATA port. I normally connect hard drives to the lower numbered ports and CD/DVD players in the higher numbered ports. I would be in your particular configuration, connect the hard drive to SATAO, primary CD/DVD in SATA2 and SATA3 secondary CD/DVD player.

• I want to add a second hard drive for my Pavilion Elite HPE 410f. Recommendations?

  I want to add a second hard drive for my Pavilion Elite HPE 410f. Recommendations?  Somewhere in the 320 to 500 GB range and I want a quick unit because it will be used for rendering videos.    Thank you for your response.

  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.

  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.

  https://www.jacobsparts.com/items/HDDBAY-02/

  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.

• HP ENVY laptop laptop 15-as032nr: buy 512 GB SSD laptop. You want to add additional 1 to hard drive. Can it be done?

  Hello

  I bought the HP ENVY 15-as032nr with only 512 GB SSD laptop. I want to add additional 1 to hard drive. Can it be done?

  Yes, you have the 512 m2 NVME PCI - e (lucky) drive gig and that goes into a slot and then there is also a slot open for a standard hard disk 2.5 thumbs or SATA SSD. See pages 30-33 of the manual here:

  Repair manuals

  It is likely that your laptop does not contain the HDD mounting kit and cable as shown on page 30 and 31 and this note is in the Manual:

  The disk spare parts kit hard does not include the rubber hard drive support or cable hard drive. The hard disk rubber support is available using the spare part number 857797-001. The hard drive cable is available by using the spare part number 857806-001

  An extra $ 66 for the housing and the cable seems a bit strong, but I couldn't find their sale anywhere other than HP Store.

  This isn't a simple upgrade; If you need assistance.

• 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.

• Re: How can I add a second internal hard drive to a Satellite Pro P200?

  I have a Satellite Pro P200 with a single internal hard drive. There is a second Bay in the computer of another internal hard drive, but I couldn't find any information about it. There is enough space for a 2.5 "SATA but I do not see a connector.

  I contacted Toshiba Dutch customer service who said that it was official policy not to provide any information on a second internal drive. They also said that they would not provide parts to make it possible.

  Can anyone provide more information?

  Hello!

  I think that if there is no connector you cannot add a second HDD.
  It of Nice to have a second Bay, but it's nothing without a connector.

  Good bye

• I have a new M4630G I want to add a second hard drive

  Acer has a service in addition to its user manual Manual?

  The specs are a little unclear to me.  This PC uses 3.5 "SATA internal hard drives?

  Richard

  Rikkk, Acer is to not know service guides.

  Looking at the unit, there is a HARD drive bay with up to 2 individual Bay carriers. Those who went for 3.5 "HDD (standard size of office) but knurled investments are available to secure 2.5" (SSD & laptop HDD) within these companies. I've included a photo. The red zone is just to point out where is the HARD drive Bay.

  I hope this helps.

• Adding a DVD - RW drive for a XPS 8700.

  I just bought an XPS 8700 provided with Windows 7 (my choice) and one disc of 12 x DVD - RW. This machine replaces a decade old Dimension 8400.  I want to add a second DVD disc to avoid the shuffle of disk by making copies.

  The last time I did was when they were still using old PATA drives where the drive data cable was the old ribbon cable and you used a splitter to the power cable.

  I have never installed a SATA drive so I have a few questions.  When I order my second drive, what wires I need to complete the installation - or is all the wiring already in the computer?

  One last question is the format used in the 8700 XPS and how to remove the coup de grace in the drive Bay?

  Thanks for any advice - Tom

  You need to buy a DVD/RW SATA drive 5.25 "similar on the drive shown here:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16827106289

  A data SATA 18 "cable is necessary, there should be a spare cable/power connector SATA inside of the case for a second optical drive.

  One end of the SATA data cable is connected to the optical drive and the other to a SATA connector located on the motherboard [page 13].

  Two 6-32 X 1/4 screws are necessary to install the drive in the Bay.

  The installation procedures of the player can be found here:

  FTP://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_xps_desktop/XPS-8700_Owner%27s%20Manual_en-us.PDF

  Greetings to "how to remove the coup de grace in the Bay.

  You can use the same instructions as given for the hard disk, on page 42.

• 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.

• Add a second perc shared 8 on my vrtx

  Hello

  I want to add a second perc shared 8 on my vrtx.

  I only buy this card or other part?

  Thanks in advance for your support

  Sohann,

  The kit that you need depends on the size of the drives installed. There is a kit for 2.5 drives, as well as a different kit for the 3.5 in drives. 2 different kits are listed below.

  R402Y	VRTX, 2.5 (for drives 2.5 "chassis VRTX)
  9257V	VRTX, 3.5 (for disks 3.5 "chassis VRTX)

  The kit includes the cables that you need, which would not be provided with just the card.

  Let me know if it helps.
