Pavilion P7-1235: internal second hard drive HP Pavilion P7-1235

Hello!  Is my HP Pavilion P7-1235 set-up to accept a 2nd internal hard drive?  If so, is there something special, I'm going to have to add the disc?

Comments and help will be appreicated.

Thank you

Patrick

Ruette,

Thank you once again.  I'll order a.  Our last Radio Shack recently closed.  OfficeMax does not have them.

It was great working with you on the discussion Forum.

  • Series Edge (E) internal second hard drive

    I was wondering if users of portable Edge series or E are using / used a second internal drive?

    Officially, their sales staff, in this series of laptops feature to replace the optical drive with a hard disk has been removed. Their tech staff said when I asked. There is no official Lenovo adapter for E series, but some are available spare parts. Is that what someone has successfully used a Lenovo HD adapter in their E series? What the aftermarket ones? What were your experiences?

    Side note: I doubt that the feature has been removed. Optical and hard drives are same. Because it's an entry-level computer, it would cost more to remove the option rather than maintain and publicly asserting that it does not work.

    I doubt that they will remove the possibility of using optical drive SATA for HDD device connector. There is also the slot m2 you can use a SSD NGFF. I used 3 internal hard drive on my ThinkPad E520 and E530.

  • Newly installed internal Second hard drive not recognized

    L1701X XPS laptop (running Win 10). Installed a second 500 GB WD hard drive that is not recognized in the BIOS. I've updated (flashed) BIOS to the A10 and I updated all drivers recommended by Dell Support.

    If I remove the new second player and hover over the first (original) hard drive to the second vacant slot it works very well and also appears in the BIOS - so it seems to me that there is no problem with the second player port.

    I tried everything I could find on the Net about it, for example, to check the connection of the second disc, but nothing done yet.

    Can someone help me with this?

    I'm pulling this Post because I don't get all of the possible solutions to my question.  Thanks to the two people who have asked questions.

  • Aspire V3 - 574G - internal Second hard drive

    I discovered that my lappy, after tearing down, it has only a hard disk location. I counted on my STRANGE with a disk replacing hard as I don't really use it.

    I looked on eBay and found the correctly sized hard drive caddy and a large SSD. I'm planning to move my slow Western Digital 5400 RPM drive hard to the caddy and install the card Sandisk Ultra II 480 GB about the location of the main hard drive.

    My question is: it'll work? I've seen reports that this configuration * rarely * does not, but many reports, videos and tutorials that it will work with any laptop. It makes sense since the ODD uses the SATA standard after all. I would like just to confirm.

    If your optical drive location has a working sata connection, there is no reason why it wouldn't work.

  • 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.

  • Adding a second hard drive to a 500-380nf Pavilion?

    I just bought a new 500-380nf Pavilion.

    In the store I did understand the seller I was intending to add second hard drive to a 1 to SATA (which I already loaded with all my media files).

    However, now I am home and have taken the side panel, it seems that the system a capacity for 2 more SATA connections on the motherboard, power cable from spare at least one and a lot of physical space.

    BUT the chassis appears to have been designed with ONLY 2 bays - that are occupied by the existing hard drive and the optical drive.   Am I missing something?   There is a place to mount the second hard drive, isn't there?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Some models of the HP 500 - xxx series are provsioned for a 2.5 device "(SDD ou HD)."  See the image below.

    If you have removed the optical drive you can then use a 5.25 "to two hard drive adapter 2.5"since you mentioned a 2.5 hard drive".

    What do I need install the second hard drive HP PAVILION: p6633w?

    Hello

    You need two cables, one is a sata cable:

    http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/30305659/706331346/STARTech-com-6in-SATA-to-right-angle-SATA-serial-ATA-cable-female-SATA-female-SATA-6-inch-red/ListingDetails.html?_%24JA=TSID:13315% 7Ccat: 30305659% 7Cprd: 30305659 & kw = {keyword}

    This cable is only for data and connect the hard drive to the SATA connector on the motherboard.

    The other cable is energy:

    http://www.itpartsdirect.com/STARTech-15-24cm-4-pin-Molex-to-SATA-power-cable-adaptor.html

    It connects the hard drive to the PSU.

    You can also buy a combo like this cable:

    http://www.Amazon.co.UK/DP/B00064GBT4/?tag=hydra0b-21&hvadid=9550951989&ref=asc_df_B00064GBT4

    All you have to do is to connect the hard drive and that's it. Make sure that the main drive with the operating system is connected to the primary SATA connector (I think there are the numbers 1, 2, 3...)

  • Pavilion 17-f061us: HP Pavilion 17 - f061us so I can add a second hard drive

  • 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.

  • Adding a second hard drive internal in a T510?

    I bought the new 510 with the internal hard disk of 500 GB 7200 RPM, and I think about adding another one with the same characteristics.

    (1) is there a place to add a second hard drive

    (2) if so, would you have a second hard drive, or run a raid?

    (3) If you want a raid you would reflect the main disk failure?

    (4) what are the disadvantages of having a second disk except weight?

    Lenovo said it would work in the notes to the mobile 500 GB internal drive here.

    "Option of 500 GB at 7200 RPM hard drive RPM ThinkPad offers large capacity, additional storage at high speed which incorporates the latest technology for the improvement of mobile productivity. For additional storage and backup, use optional new ThinkPad Serial ATA Hard Drive Bay adapter III (43N3412) to install the ThinkPad 500 GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA hard drives in the following media bays: computers ThinkPad taken in charge, including selected R400/R500, ThinkPad T400/T400s/T410/T410s/T500/T510 and W510/W500/W700 portable series plus the ban ThinkPad X 200. »

  • Adding a second hard drive internal

    I use an old HP Media Center PC m700, product: m7041. I have tried adding a second internal hard drive, but unfortunately do not know how to start. Could someone help me please?

    I'll start by guessing that you have a m7041.uk, given that your model number is incomplete. After you have a HP m7041.uk, you have the following types of drive Bay and the quantities;

    5.25 inches (CD/DVD), external x two (one available)
    a (busy) x internal 3.5-inch (hard drive),
    Personal Media Drive (available) x

    Because you don't have that a single Bay 3.5 "for a hard drive and it is already occupied, you will need to use the Bay 5.25" opened with an adapter like THIS or THAT. Please see these tutorials for HP on 'Adding or replacing a hard drive' and 'Adding or replacing a CD or DVD disc' to learn where and how to install the second hard drive.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea second hard drive

    I recently bought a HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea (XE274EA #ABU). One of the reasons why I chose this laptop was because it was announced as being able to have two hard drives.

    When I open the HDD I discovered that it there is no way to install a second hard drive, because the cable and the caddy is missing.

    Anyone know the part number for it? The necessary cable is longer, so the previous parts for DV7 don't work with it. I called my local provider of HP, and they did not know the number of the piece, which is a little ridiculous. I probably have to pay RIP-OFF prices for something that should have been included in the laptop in the first place.

    HP has not yet, but do to the sites of third parties.

    These guys are the main suppliers of spare hard drive caddy. It will work. HP eventually will do the part available but don't hold your breath. $40 is a bit strong but not terrible. HP will charge more when they make available.

  • Pavilion P6235uk: can I install second hard drive on PC?

    Hello. I was wondering if I can install a second hard drive on my PC.

    The present Sata hard drive has a capacity of 640 GB.

    If there is a port to spare for a second hard drive, is there a maximum useful?

    And everything would make SATA 3.5 '' hard disk fit? I would be grateful for any advice.
