Ports SATA, eSATA capacity in HP ENVY 700-215xt

I am considering a desktop HP ENVY 215xt 700 PC.  I see the motherboard has 4 different color SATA ports, but can't find anything in the documentation describing the.  Are some readers allocated to hard, other DVD players?  I want to add a bracket eSATA to image the internal HD to a hard drive external.  It is therefore important to know what MB SATA connector to use.

In addition, there is a documentation on the BIOS for the motherboard of Memphis-B?  Could not find.

Hello kk123,

I understand that you are curious about SATA ports on your motherboard and that they are specific to the device. I'm linking you to an HP support document: all SATA hard drives and controller Modes, which should answer your questions about the SATA controllers.

I am also including a HP support document: Serial ATA Hard Drive cablesthat if you scroll down to the end of the document is a table that explains the colors of SATA connectors and what they are for.

Finally, I provide you with a last paper Support HP: HP PCI eSATA kit installation cable, that well that is not specific to your computer will give you an idea of how set up your eSATA support.

I hope that I have answered your questions to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • HP Envy 700-215XT: it fits?

    Hello, I bought a HP ENVY 700-215XT HP recently. I'm a PC gamer, so I want to change my graphics card to a gigabyte g1 gtx 970, my most important question, will she made? Is it compatible?

    Hello

    your first concern should be a diet... the gtx 970 has a suggested minimum power of 500w... yours is an OEM 300 w without external power connectors... first get a PSU w 600 or 650

    come to the part of editing, the card is a 10.5 inch... your motherboard is a 9.6 * 9.6 and therefore the 970 will cover the length of your mobo... it's not a problem, but if there's a huge mangle of son in your pc then tie up carefully or get a modular PSU... result is, it will fit but make sure the inside is not crowded then the card can heat too

    Compatibility depends on your bios... .the 970 requires UEFI BIOS to run and your pc stand so no worries there

    Hope this helps

  • Add HD 4850 video card in HP Envy 700-215xt

    I want to add a Radeon HD 4850 HD-485 X-ZNFC video card in HP Envy 700-215xt (model: F9A62AV) whose video card (Intel HD Graphics, DVI - D graph) is too poor to run Samsung monitor (24in).  HD 4850 videocard needs connector 6 pin power, but I can't find the power connector or cable. What should I do?

    The PSU minimum power, with a PCIe power connector 6-pin requirement is 450 watts.

    Your PC has a 300 Watt POWER supply. Is not enough power for the XFX video card.

    You must also upgrade the PSU to intensify your graphics card for a XFX HD4850 video card.

    If you are unable to get a graphical output on the 24-inch display, then it is likely to be a problem with the display or the cable.  You may not be the entry configured to automatically recognize a video signal. You can test that by connecting the original display. If you get a video output to the original display there is nothing wrong with the motherboard or the CPU. Intel HD4600 graphics are provided by the CPU, not a graphics card.

  • Envy 700-215xt Broadcom bluetooth driver Win 8.1

    Hello!

    My new HP Envy 700 - 215xt came with Win 7 Home and I've updated to 8.1 Pro Win.  In control compatibility before the upgrade, the software said that the bluetooth device driver was not compatible with Win 8 and forced me to uninstall it, I did.

    Now everything has been migrated and works fine, except for the part of Broadcom wireless adapter bluetooth.  The WiFi worked very well.  In Device Manager, I see the card wifi Broadcoom BCM43142 under the heading, network cards and I see a BCM43142A0 listed in the other peripheral topic, and it shows that there is no driver installed for him.  Try to uninstall/reinstall, it is nothing and a Windows search for a driver comes empty also.

    I downloaded and tried to install sp64557 from the support page, and it gave me the error "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update cancelled. »

    It is not a show stopper if I can't use bluetooth (at least not right away), but is there a procedure that I am missing to get this device works, or a driver available to support this device in Win 8.1?

    Thank you!

    Update of the United Nations:

    After doing more research on the forum, I came across an article related to your laptop with the same problem, and just for grins, I downloaded and installed sp66144.

    Voila!  Life of Bluetooth!

  • HP Envy 700 215Xt: request info for BIOS described below

    I hope I'm posting in the appropriate section, basically a beginner in this room. I have a desktop HP Envy 215XT 700 with Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit OS. My interest is in the BIOS, and basically, I want to understand better. What I would like is to have a manual or guide for this BIOS, if there is such a thing. For example, if you have more than one drive installed, or even the DVD drive and HDD, other places to start from, if bring you up the BIOS screen, then select F10, you can select a boot device. You can also do this in F9. I have to do one, two or what? And in what order. I'm starting to think that this computer does NOT like the 2 discs hard bootable installed, period. A bootable, one works better,

    2AF7 system board / Cfg, ID 1.00 product / Bios Rev MEM v80.16 / CPU Intel core 17-4771 3.50 GHz cpu.

    1 can or I would be able to run (2) 1 terabyte drives in the computer, and can both be bootable or just one?

    2. does anyone know if there is a BIOS update or a newer firmware to do this, my opinion is not.

    3. I have here available, a person, a sort of User Guide with details of Setup when using this BIOS to go n informed approach?

    Thank you.

    Hello jpw389 ;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I read your post on the BIOS info and wanted to help.

    You can have any number of disks bootable on a PC, but the BIOS has a defined order in which he sees these readers, and it will attempt to boot an OS in that order.  So, with more than one bootable disc to begin the second drive, you must do one of the following:

    (1) change the order of the drives in the list of the BIOS to move the other drive to the top of the list

    2) press the function key that allows you to select a drive to boot from

    The difference in the use of these two is that the first change is permanent, the second for a boot.

    Regarding versions of BIOS, the link is on the Page of the product HP to Win7 for your PC: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-ENVY-700-Desktop-PC-series/5399651/model/6667346

    Under the BIOS section, you will see two updates to the BIOS.  You can check yours to see what version of BIOS uses at present.  There is no other update BIOS.

    Good luck

  • HP Envy 700-215xt: hardware upgrade

    Hello

    I just wanted to know if there are restrictions on the upgrade of my 600w PSU and my graphics card for a GTX 980. I've been looking around and see some messages on Web sites saying that some HP computers are not extensible or use special connectors for their motherboards. Currently, I have a HP mother 2AF7. Thank you.

    You will need to research before you spent the $$$.

    Your system does support UEFI BIOS... investigation with this reference.  Most of the cards in the 700 and above are UEFI.  More reading about The UEFI BIOS.   The power supply is an ATX standard.  Nothjng for you to worry - about.  Corsair is an excellent brand.

  • 700 - 215XT envy: copy of the original OS

    The machine is a HP Envy 700-215XT bought mid-2014. The machine is completely dead from one day to the next. It wouldn't boot. Not knowing much about HP, I advanced and formatted the HARD drive and installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro x 64. The installation went well, but as it is not the exact copy supplied with the machine, I can not install any drivers. I can also not boot in using F11 recovery tool.

    I am trying to find a way to restore the computer to its original state. Is it possible to get a copy of Windows from HP with the sticker of the product key on the machine?

    Is there another approach, that I need to try?

    Thank you in advance!

  • ENVY 700-527c: data port availability

    ENVY 700-527c, regarding with card mother Kaili2.

    This unit had a place available for an additional cd/dvd drive for a total of 2 cd/dvd players.

    In addition, there are two bays available for the additional hard drives for a total of 3hdds.

    I installed a dvd drive in the extra Bay and I installed a hard drive in one of the two available bays. Everything works well no problems.

    I would like to take advantage of the third Bay for an additional hard drive, but there were only two available data ports.

    You can see the data ports in the lower right. Currently, all four are busy (2 dvd/cd drives - hard drive 2).

    My question is: How can I get a third HDD installed and operational?

    Hello

    The RED edge connector is a different SATA port.  See the image below.

    Motherboard taken Kaili2 supported by six SATA 6 devices. Five traditional SATA III ports and an MSATA are available.

    Is there a method to add another connection sata for the 4th disc, or is the choice between a 4th disc or a dvd?

    Sure.

    You can add a PCIe x 1 SATA controller card to your PC. Which will increase the number of available ports.

    See the research I've done shows availability and prices. You should do a search the same locally for prices in your region of the world.
