Pavilion P6-2125 - adding additional hard disks

Nice day.

Can I add additional hard disks SATA internal? Is the power supply sufficient to allow this? In addition, this will void the warranty?

Thank you, Joe

Hi, Joe:

When I look at the upgrade and maintenance of your PC guide, I don't get a hard drive Bay.

So, I would say that your PC is not configured to handle more than one hard drive.

  • Pavilion p7 - 1417c: how many hard disks can accept to my machine?

    I recently installed a 5 TB disk (E:\) and it works fine.  The drive that I replaced was a 2 TB WD drive. My old 2 TB drive can be installed in the Bay under the DVD drive? My machine is p7 - 1417c, s/n 3CR2460P90. My machine can get 2 hard drives in addition to the 1 with which it came?

    Greetings,

    It seems you have two (maybe three-hard to see) berries of HARD disk in the HARD drive cage.

    You can also buy an adapter for the optical drive Bay HARD drive open. Or just join the 3.5-inch HARD drive bay with screws. If this Bay is 2.5 inches, you can use an SSD.

    You have five SATA ports on the motherboard (MB).

    Some of the MB SATA ports are going to be slower speeds of legacy. You might have some ports SATA 1. You may need to use jumpers when installing the disk HARD SATA 3. You may have a compatibility issue back. It's been a while since I had to deal with this type of problem. I'm a little fuzzy on potential problems when using 1 SATA disk HARD SATA 3.

    SATA MB ports five minus the optical drive to the MB connection gives four connections available for HARD disks.

    You also need to supply connections (or will need to purchase the power adapters) from food to run five disks.

    I don't see what you have.

    See you soon!

  • HP Pavilion x 360 11-n010dx (HARD DISK AND RAM)

    Hi, I have the HP Pavilion x 360 11- n010dx and make it sound strange when in set at 90 degrees. as a click clikc click all the time, since the day I understand 5 months ago. to be honest never was a fast computer, as my old vaio run faster than that. I thougth it was for windows 8 and 4 GB of ram. but someone told me that might be you HDD. so, first of all is any chance to fix this disc using HDD regenerator or something similar (I do not), or do a complete restore of the system? (I don't have the box and Bill from best buy so I can't look for support or use the warranty and im from argetntina and I get this pc in the United States). In the case where I need is also a chance to change the disk to an SSHD? or a SSD? in this case, what should I buy? Last, but not least, is a chance to upgrade memory? I know that it is sold to the motherboard. (any remote chance?) If I have to UN sold is not a problem, because I can't use the warranty so... (no invoice, no box).  I have well appreciate a lot your help

    Hi again once I run the complete test of the system hardware, it does not any error on the hard disk. but the clicking sound again. and the still slow computer.

    Whence the noise? It's cooling fans, near vents or on the side of the hard drive? Look at the manual to their approximate positions & identify the area where the sound comes from.

    Are there any overheating, sudden stops, unusually warm air through vents or error messages?

    If there is no hard drive failure, it is unlikely that the cause is due to bad sectors of hard disk or all just bad HARD drive. To confirm the download, run this program free HD Tune - it'll take a few hours to complete.

    You partition the hard disk after you bought the laptop?

    I want to change the HD to an SSHD, because SSDS are much better, but they are very expensive and shorter life. for example, sshd maximun size would be bee 500 GB? I would like to put something bigger, is - it possible?

    SSHD - the listed compatible max is in this config: 2.5 "SATA 7mm (HDD to 500 GB + 8 GB SSD) hybrid (reference HP: 732000-005), there is no other compatible guaranteed.

    I suggest that go you for SSD - there is no problem, I've heard up to now with them. Certainly, they would work at least 10 years (and more than that) with the same performance & in my case (I have 500 GB Samsung SSD Evo 840) time to access and overall performance improves day after day.  If you want more storage, better, you buy an external HARD drive. If you want spectacular performance SSD is my choice, even though I'm not saying that SSHD is bad - but there still turns physical disk which is the main part.

    On the RAM I've already updated the bios, so I think that I'm ready to go for it.

    I check my virus staus and my pc is free, also check windows services and leave only the description, I don't know why is it so long to star upward and run the programs that I know is a modest, but Im pc use only statistical programs, office and that's all...

    To detect & fixing malware, download & install this free tool: MalwareBytes Antimalware

    Update latest version & TICK "Scan rootkits" its settings before starting the scan.

    After the scan, quarantine the detected objects. Restart the system. Yet once, open the Malware Bytes program, go to the history tab in there: remove all quarantined items from there

    Restart the system.

    Open the prompt as administrator, do a SFC SCAN, check if integrity violations are:
    SFC SCAN COMMAND - Option 2

    Then, disable startup programs unnecessary in the Manager of tasks - Option 1

    Restart the system.

  • Adding new HARD disk to the current setup RAID1 on PowerEdge T310

    Hello

    I have PowerEdge T310 with SAS 6/iR controller. I've configured as RAID1 with 2 x 500 GB HARD drive. Now I would like to add another disk HARD 2. Is it possible to do with the material current & configuration? IS SAS 6/iR support for additional HARD drive?

    Fauzi79,

    Unfortunately with the SAS6/ir you don't have the ability to develop. You must back up the data, delete the table, add readers, then reconfigure the table. After that, then install the operating system and restore the data. Sorry I couldn't give you the answer that you were missing no doubt, but it is a limitation of the controller you are using. If a Perc 6 / I installed then the expansion process is relatively simple.

    Let me know if this helps to clarify.

  • Add additional hard disk to ESX4.1

    Hello

    I have a box of esx with 500 GB hard drive, I use this to objective test and have 5-6 vm on local storage. Now, I would like a few more storage and plans to add another hard drive to ESX box for making fewer virtual machines. I've not done this before so would like to know if I add an additional hard drive, I'll be able to create another customer vspehere data store? If this is not the case, how can I use the extra space on it?

    Thank you...

    Yes, if the drive is connected to a supported disk controller, t appear in the vSphere Client. What does the Wizard "add storage", it creates a new partition on the drive and it is shaped with the VMFS file system.

  • Satellite A200-1GH, remove the additional HARD disk cover

    Hello

    I bought a new HARD drive and I want to put it in place of additional hard drive, but I can't remove the cover... :-(... I was remove two screws and nothing...
    Can you help me please?

    Respect...

    Stand by. If I understand you right, you want to add the second HARD drive. Am I right about that?
    At first, I must say that this is not possible due to lack of connectors. In any case you can check only. Remove the two screws and remove the cover plastic. I know, it cannot be removed easily. Remove it in the middle and remove the side.

  • Is it POSSIBLE to install additional hard disk in DV7 4073NR?

    Hi all

    I want to install an additional hard drive in my DV7 laptop 4073NR, is it possible? The cams of laptop computer with a hard drive, I have removed and installed an a SSD, I work with both? With windows installed in SSD and files in the groin? If Yes, what should I do?

    Thank you very much?

    Yes but only in storage. Add the old drive with the newmodeus.com cable and caddy in the second hard drive Bay. Connect the cable. The old drive should appear in Windows Explorer with a drive letter if it is formatted and partitioned. If it is empty, it should be formatted and partitioned. If you need help with that, let us know. You just can't do a drive in the Bay of this second bootable.

  • G8 Pavilion laptop hardware error - new hard disk?

    Hello, I spoke with a representative from HP and I wanted a second opinion. Here are the facts:

    Possible virus causing the model to be very slow and have errors at the start up.

    Problems of gel even in "safe mode".

    Decided to do a "System Restore" using F8. Follow-up of the steps, took 20 + minutes, FINISHED.

    A screen says that I can, "1. update of security for HP and microsoft;   2 re - install any other software;    3. install all the backed up files. I selected 'NEXT' at the bottom of the screen, then, "OPERATING SYSTEM not FOUND '. Now I can't other than 'F' screens anyhere

    I call HP. A rep tells me to use F2, test drive. On a quick scan, 1 hard disk failure (SMART disc is OK). The full scan, 1 hard disk failure (SMART disc is OK).  The representative asked me a long code determine the failures, and there is NOT.  I go out of the main system diagnostics page and there are two failure codes: 303 (quick scan) and 305 (full scan). The rep wants codes any longer, but there is not.

    My question: do I need a new hard drive, or I can just recovery disks?

    Thanks for any help you can provide!   -Sarah

    Hello

    Longer code (up to 24 characters) means that the HARD disk is dead. 305 error would indicate that your hard drive is defective and must be replaced. Please backup your files/data as soon as possible. Is your machine still under warranty? In the affirmative, please call HP for a replacement.

    Update: Sorry, I'm a little slow - 3rd opinion then.

    Kind regards.

  • Problem adding a hard disk for Pavilion Elite HPE - 380 t

    Hello

    I am trying to replace my existing drive with a new WD 1 TB hard drive. So I intend to install the new WD drive as the 2nd drive, and then run the utility WD Acronis to clone the original to the new drive.

    However, when I install the new disk, the BIOS recognizes it, but I think it appears in Windows 7 such as D drive, but it does not work. When I run Acronis, he says that it doesn't detect any WD drive.

    I went into the BIOS and ran the test drive / self-test and it passed.

    I noticed that the SATA1 controller is enabled. He didn't check before installing the drive.

    The controller SATA1 mode is RAID. Not sure that it was previously.

    Oh, and I plugged the new drive SATA cable into the connector of the motherboard directly next to the SATA connector as my original drive.

    Everyone through this? Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Steve

    You are right. It was the answer, sort of. When I started Windows 7, I went in the new disk drives and active management. I let the system assign drive letters. I then rebooted.

    Then when I came back to Windows, I was able to run the original utility WD Acronis True Image to clone my source drive to the new drive. When finished, stop the system, removed my original drive and the new drive my only drive.

    Everything works beautifully. I managed to replace my hard drive.

    Thanks for the tip.

  • Pavilion dv7 4053 cl: Pavilion dv7 4053cl adding second hard drive

    I replaced with success the stock HDD in my laptop with an SSD.

    I want to continue to use the old HDD in the laptop well, and it seems that I have a second drive Bay HARD in which HARD drive can adapt. I have not, however, see a SATA connector on the motherboard for a second HDD connection.

    There is a SATA connector to the disk HARD primary (symbols of disc 1, marked on the plastic) and there are two connectors near the RAM, which seem not to be SATA, and my optical disc drive is connected.

    Am I missing something, or is there is no place on the motherboard to connect a second HARD (well, or SSD) via SATA drive?
