• Add the second hard drive for HP Pavilion dv7-3173nr

  So rumor is my DV7 may take a second hard drive.

  So I got a second drive, open the bottom where the reader will, and there is no SATA connector. Apparently I need a shopping cart or something, but I can't. Am I missing something obvious?
  
  Thank you.

  Yes you need a shopping cart and a connector. The interface is not a standard SATA plug... There is a cable that connects the SATA drive in a small plug in the second Bay.

• 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!

• Adding 3rd hard drive for HP Pavilion Elite m9250f

  I have a Pavilion Elite m9250f running Windows Vista Home 64 bit. The computer currently has two 500 GB hard drives for a total capacity of 1 TB. I would like to add a third drive to increase storage capacity.  I have a SATA to 2 to and cables. When I tried to install the new drive above the two existing disks, he did not slide smoothly. When I removed the already highest reader, I could slide the new drive into but the screws are not line up properly with the new drive. This leads me to believe that I can not install a third drive in the Bay. Is this a correct assumption?

  I have an available expansion Bay below the optical drive but am not sure that it is usable for a hard drive. If the use of the expansion Bay is possible, do I have to buy a hook or how to mount the drive in this space?

  If necessary, I can copy the data from the secondary drive on an external drive and replace it with the new drive. However, I need confirmation that the secondary is the player in the foreground of both in the hard disc enclosure.

  Thank you for your help.

  If the task under the existing optical Bay is open, just use an adapter to fill the space and to mount the drive in there.  Make sure of course that there is a power cord and a SATA port.

• 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.

• Second hard drive for HP pavilion laptop solutionn

  Hello:

  I got a Pavilion dv7-4173us laptop in ealy December 2010 a few weeks ago...

  I also want to add a 2nd drive hard because I can't use the first hard drive

  for LINUX.

  All 4 primary partitions on the first hard disk is already used by HP to the following partition names:

  (C) windows, HP_TOOLS, RECOVERY, SYSTEM.

  I don't understand why HP has to exhaust all primary partitions.

  Most manufacturer only use towing.

  they could have put their tools and recovery files in a partition or combine withSYSTEM partition

  It seems that they do not want to support the Linux community...

  If anyone knows what primary partitions can I remove safely from the first hard drive, that would be great.

  In any case, the reason why I'm posting this is to ask if you successfully add a 2nd interal hard drive to the computer laptop dv7.

  I looked att he manul and it show where I can stable the 2nd hard drive.

  IMPORTANT observation:

  However, I notice the connector on the motherboard for the 2nd drive hard is not the same as the

  first hard drive. I also noticed there is no need of rails to support the 2nd drive hard because it it ca be mounted with a hard drive are the first screw.

  I hope that is not a connector owner.

  I would like to know what your HP solution?

  I spent about 4 + hours with HP tech and sales and still did not get a response...

  Service very poor customer... very bad for business.

  Maybe we need to know about... the Linux community bad customer service

• 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

  I have Toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 k (PSAJ4E) and my question is, can I add second HARD drive? Now, I have a HARD inside drive, Hitachi 250 GB, 5400 RPM. is there a place for the second HARD drive?

  I want to buy some 2.5 in 7200 RPM, thx in advance.

  Hello

  Check the bottom of the unit.
  There should be a second HARD drive Bay.
  If the second HARD drive bay contains the pins of the connector HDD/then you could add a second HARD drive 2.5 SATA.
  If the connector is not available, then the second HDD is not possible.

  See you soon

  Hello
  I would like to know if its possible to add a second hard drive to the X 500-12 q?
  I suppose that space is available, but I would like to know whether the connector is here & all
  I could just open the case and plug it in.

  Thank you

  In the document s user manuals I have not found something on HD upgrade so I m really don't know if this will be possible.
  Anyway, as Jeka wrote, remove the HARD drive cover and check if there is place for second HARD drive and also necessary SATA connector.

  I have older 300 x and there is room for two drives.

  Hello

  While you can certainly add another HARD drive in the Bay of secondary drive (you must also support and the connection cable) you can't boot from it - only in the Bay of primary HARD drive is bootable.

  Kind regards
