Office p6750z - added optical drive

I add a DVD ROM to my existing hp (p6750z) desktop computer.  I did similar to other computers upgrades in the past and I looked at the 6750z service and upgrade manual.  I have one question - is is not clear to me how to remove the drive Bay cover in unused drive Bay.  The lid has two locations that look like they might be intended for the insertion of a screwdriver.  I have just to insert a screw drive and apply pressure until the cover POPs out?

The procedure to remove the hood of the car should really be in the maintenance manual.

Please see addition or replacement of a CD or a DVD in HP and Compaq Desktop PC drive for instructions on removing the metal plate "white" of the secondary optical drive Bay. You will need to insert a flat blade screwdriver into the slots and the rocks or twist the plate until it is free.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Adding hard drive in the optical drive in an Z210 CMT - method?

    Not obvious HP documentation exactly which carrier is needed to set up a standard 3.5 "SATA hard drive in one of the positions below the optical drive.

    HP parts list shows HP #619242-001 as carrier to achieve, but this part, judging by the photos, just doesn't seem right: large heat sink, a kind of connector built, etc. Also, of course, over $ 40 with shipping. Just to mount a drive?

    Am I missing something here?

    DRM for your help!

    Only HP number piece you posted actually represents a HP original Western Digital IcePack, which allows the conversion of an SSD 2.5 "or the hard disk in a 3.5 form factor" which exactly reproduces the form of a standard disk 3.5 "(including the change of accessories features/SATA power correctly to the left, and either in the middle of a Bay that may be important in some workstations).  Here's a picture of:

    If you have a spare 5.25 "Bay that you can remove the 'empty' in your workstation of Z, then here's the information you want about the device that accepts a standard 3.5" disk (or the IcePack 2.5"Drive Converter above).  This is the HP NQ099AA sled, which replaces the empty 5.25 ", and you can see from the image below that there's a front slit black plastic to allow the entry of ventilation.  It has a metal back slot to accept what seems to be the Green 3.5 "HP drive original holder that was used in the era workstations xw (slide in rear), and who will be included.  These types of 5.25 "era sleds Z generally works very well in the era post xw optical drive bays, also.  HP is one that accepts two drives 2.5 "in a sleigh (picture not included).  I bought some guys from Alan on eBay several times... good company.  Search on eBay for this code part option see more photos.

    I do not have a workstation Z like yours to compare to, so maybe you don't have a spare optical drive Bay to insert such an adapter in.  However, looking at the Z210 photos on eBay that looks exactly what you need.

    Hope this helps and let us know the results of others to take advantage...

  • XPS 8500 added second HDD and second optical drive

    I'll order a XPS 8500 with a HARD drive and an optical drive (at the same time TBD).  I'll add an additional HARD drive and an additional optical drive.  If I understand correctly, there one Sata3 connector which I assume is already occupied by the main HARD drive.  There should be three Sata2 connectors, one occupied by the primary optical drive.  The remaining Sata2 connectors are available for my new additions?

    What additional data / power cables will I need?

    Thank you!

    Hi Husker77,

    Welcome to the community.

    The system has two bays of 5.25 inches for loading tray SATA DVD +/-RW or Blu - ray drive (option) disc (optional) writable Blu - ray disc and two Bay 3.5 inches for SATA hard drives (internally accessible).

    An mSATA SSD drive (available internally). There are four connectors 7-pin (1 x SATA III, 3 x SATA II) where you can install the drives. A SATA 3 connector is occupied by the main hard drive and a SATA 2 connector is occupied by the optical drive. So yes, you can install a secondary hard drive and an optical drive in the system. Power connectors, ideally it should be there in the Tower system, however in case they are not present, you may need to power connectors to be ordered separately.

    Let me know any conclusions, glad to be useful.

  • Question about installing an SSD in my optical drive

    I'm looking for pulling on my optical drive and put in an SSD, because I was told it can do my slow Mac run very fast. My thought was that rather than spend on my existing hard drive, I would take the optical disc and install my SSD it (I've seen a lot of videos shows how to do this)

    My original hard drive offers 500 GB and also have a Windows partition, so I'm a little afraid to play with it, too... Adding an SSD will give me a feature from the application of some of the work for the SSD (such a start and some slower applications) to work only with a specific hard drive? And if I did start Mac on the SSD, should I uninstall and reinstall OS X on this new SSD?

    Sorry, I'm really new to all this. Any help is appreciated!

    My first step would certainly be in lieu of the HD with an SSD. Then assess where you are and what you think of your 'new' machine.

  • Satellite A660 - optical driver turns off when burning DVD

    I have a problem with the optical drive of energy saving options that disables the drive while burning.

    I tried all the suggestions mentioned here [http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Satellite-Laptops-A-Series/Optical-drive-automatically-turns-off-due-to-power-saver/td-p/223654], but it does not help.

    I start at the burn in Ashampoo Burning Studio free, and he seems to be good until the end. When it starts the process of lead-out the popup of the optical signals Drive Power drive is turned off. It's funny because it is still running at the speed of combustion and it will not stop. The reader becomes unresponsive, even I can't the DVD out. Even, that it disappears from the list of devices.

    The only way I thought so far to stop the car and release the DVD is in the shutdown/Hibernate the computer.

    Once the dive starts working again the STRANGE Fn-tab functionality started working and I can turn it on/Off/ejection at will.

    All the burned DVD - s are not valid, and so far I have not managed to burn a single functional DVD.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 - PSAW3E with Win7 Enterprise 64-bit.

    Is there a way to fix this? Remove the optical drive power management?

    Hello

    To be honest I have never heard of this issue, but it appears that the optical drive power management is part of the power of Toshiba configuration utility.
    Part of the Toshiba value added package configuration done Toshiba power utility.

    What you can try, for testing purposes, to remove the Toshiba added value of the system package, restart your computer and try to burn DVDs again to see if the same problem will occur again.

    Toshiba value added package contains several tools such as utility cards flash FN so after his withdrawal, you will not be able to use the FN keys. In any case, after that trial, you can download and install Toshiba value added package again.

    I mean, I know what kind of conflict is there, but maybe you should consider it.

  • Optical drive will not burn

    I saw that there are many other positions on this, and although I found others who had descriptions which were similar to mine, the patch did not work.

    My specs:

    Windows 7 64-bit SP1

    H8 HP desktop PC - 1360t

    My optical drive: DH16ACSHR

    My driver for the optical drive is the cdrom.sys, the version of the file: 6.1.7601.17514, date 21/06/2006 driver

    When I bought my computer, I did a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit. A ran all updates at once and drive perfectly serious. A few weeks later, it will not burn. I use Windows to burn simply .pdf files, and it gets to the point where it says 'burn', but after I click on burn the dialog box disappears. The drive makes noise and rotates the disk and writes data to it, but the dialog box never pops up or check the disk. It shows no more burn % completeness. If I try to remove the disc, the drive does not open. If I open with a paper clip, because the disk rotates, it sure is beating sounds and jams. When I open the drive and the drive, the drive clearly has written data to, but it cannot be read by other readers. It just says: the disc is no longer a Virgin, but I cannot see what is on it.

    I HAVE ALREADY TRIED:

    Remove/uninstall the driver

    Checking the registry entry for the upper and lower entrances, THERE ARE NONE

    Being run/scannow - Windows comes up saying that it could not find any problems, all right.

    Update driver - he says I have the latest driver

    Roll back the driver - he says that there is no driver installed previously

    I had a HP Office before a different model and exactly the same thing happened then. When I first came to this other, it burns very well, so I thought that maybe it was a problem with the previous machine... but then after a few weeks it started doing the same thing.

    I'm confused because when I look at the release date for the driver, it's super old, and he says it's the latest version... but Microsoft lists 50 updates to it at least between then and now, some of them as recently as June. I can't seem to find a way to download this driver common windows by itself and install it this way or the other.

    I refuse to do a complete reinstall because I do not think that it will solve the problem more than temporarily. Within the company, it is the fourth total office with what has happened, and whenever we do a clean install, it works at first but then goes back to the same problem again.

    Hoping someone has an idea where I can get a newer than 2006 for this device driver.

    Yes you can. Here's the part you have to do with. Just remove the optical drive, add a hard disk in one of these adapters and replace it for the optical drive:

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

    You may also need to swap the façade of the old optical disc to make the installation of good look.

    I wouldn't use this for one SSD. An SSD belonged to the main disk space to enjoy the speed. The drive into the optical drive adapter will not be bootable and it will be not given quite as fast as the main hard drive transfer speeds. So if you have a drive in this card, a big (1 TB) and slow (5400 RPM) drive would be preferable. It will be purely for storage and it is still fast enough to see the video of for example but if you are doing video editing I would try not to edit videos from the optical drive Bay. Move them to the fastest reader first.

  • Optical drive does not and "Microsoft FixIT" did not help

    Hello

    Have you installed CD/DVD programs lately? Too many people will cause issues that
    they will load the pieces themselves in memory and then they will be competing for resources.
    If you have recently added then try to uninstall them.

    -------------------------

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

  • Adding second drive of DVD to H8-1234.

    The H8-1234 has an open slot and a power connector of alternatives for adding a second DVD player.  However, the existing SATA cable has only one connector. HP offers a cable two connector? Can I use a SATA cable two connectors "generic"?  Finally, the H8-1234 will work with a second DVD disc?  Thank you.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8-1234. According to specifications, your system has six (6) SATA connectors on the motherboard. Unlike the IDE/PATA, SATA supports only one device per cable. Install another CD/DVD/BluRay drive will require you to buy another SATA data cable to make it work. And YES, the computer will function normally with a second optical drive installed.
