Where to connect second CD ROM Drive to HP Pavilion HPE 64-bit SATI

I wanted to add a 2nd drive CD ROM from an old computer to my new HP Pavilion HPE. However, there is no data cable installed.  I have a cable and adapters and connected, for what I thought was the good plug SATI on the motherboard, but the drive is not recognized, so I guess I'm plugging in the wrong place.

Does anyone know where a second drive cable is supposed to go?  A photo of the place on the motherboard would be ideal.

Thanks in advance

Can you explain what you mean by defective fitsr?

If the drive you are trying to add is Sata, so Please read carefully.

1) turn off the computer.

(2) disconnect the cables of your DVD unit.

(3) connect the other drive to these drivers.

4) turn on computer.

The drive works now?

Really, a Sata DVD/CD drive is less than $25.

  • Example: Pavilion a230n: replace the CD rom drive in Hp Pavilion a230n

    I just saved a Paviliona230n to a sad end. He dumped the parts of the body, but I had an old Millennium that I could upgrade to XP or higher. I put two Cd-rom drives in and may not know how to do it without removing the AMD CPU and fan - something I am unwilling to do without instructions.

    Are they cut down and how I unplug safely so I can insert the CD rom drives.

    I guess I'd the drive readable than plugging in the cable (top) master and the rewritable as the slave.  OR?

    I think I already exaggerated the bit of memory because the machine seems to have an a GB of memory and I put both of them in. Seems to work.

    Then I need to get drivers especially for the ethernet connection.

    More important is the method to remove the block of memory to AMD. Of course, I don't want to mess that up.

    Just for interest: the hard drive with the millennial system OP is flaky. I think it was the program, but when I tried to install XP as an 'upgrade' (to save the programs and files) it has failed twice. Only when I did a full install worked.

    Then I'll have to check the integrity of the player itself and I doubt that my disk wipe dbam (boot and nuke) work on it. He also did a great job on checking the hard drive before installing anything. It was not recognized by Millennium.

    TIA

    I also have a blog, google more on plants. The plants were at the beginning of this need to find a computer equipped with a 3.5 inch diskettes. Years ago I had an excellent program of Gardenware (plus 250.00) to create labels. I made a library of 600 point of my plants with descriptions.

    Win 3.1 now. I can't even install it again because it is the innovative and he needs a key to unlocking that the company no longer for older versions. Nothing else can read or open the backup disk library... so I downloaded a Viewer freefile and hope that it will work on this subject. I hope on the XP version. If this isn't the case, I'll have to install a floppy drive on one of my computers in Win 7.

    I found this to be beyond comprehension. If you're selling a car, you have to keep the parts for it. I don't see that the developer of this program may not have kept the unlock codes for all older versions. Certainly don't makes me want to buy their NEW release for 199.00.

    If this Viewer freefile unfold all I can do is get a mobile 3.5 floppy drive with a USB port and plug it into another computer of Nurserymans to see if the new version can read.

    HP Pavilion HPE h9 (Phoenix), win 7 64

    Thank you

    Not in the way you probably do. Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See Page 50. Unlike the Envy 17 and Pavilion dv7, Pavilion 17 has that a single hard drive Bay. The only way to add a second hard drive is to remove the DVD (optical drive) and insert a DVD to the hard drive bay adapter. The manual shows how to remove the DVD player and you can buy the adapter at amazon.com or jacobsparts.com. Note that this is a 9.5 mm thick disc, not a 12.7 mm. Both types are available. I do not recommend the adapter DVD player solution because you lose the use of the optical drive, and also because the interface of optical drive is usually not as fast as the main hard drive interface. Always fast enough for simple storage and you can run a video of her, but you do not want to edit the video of this disc, for example.

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

    If you decide to go the route of adapter DVD I would buy a large capacity 5400 RPM SATA 2.5 inches wide and drive hard thickness 9.5 mm. No sense in buying a reader more expensive high-performance.

  • HP 6120 t BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller

    Hello

    HP 6120 t (vista) BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller. The other SATA disk and the DVD player came with the machine.

    I hooked my old 200 GB Hitachi drive via the controller. I also put the jumbers in the present as a slave. I also took the original WD drive and just connect the IDE hard drive. BIOS do not show any drive at all.

    I would try something possible at this time I have a lot of my data on the old disk.

    Thanks appreciate any suggestion.

    Try to enter the BIOS and I believe under change of Advanced menu of SATA to IDE or Enhanced.

    You need to do when you install Windows XP or you will get a blue screen and it does not start.

    Don't forget chang back when you put it in your drive home hard sata.

  • Question about Tecra 510CDT computer laptop CD Rom drive

    Hello

    A friend just bought this laptop second hand. Everything seems very well despite the age. The only problem is when I swap the floppy for the cd rom drive drive. The screen is blank, the cursor hangs and then the laptop crashes completely.

    When I originally put the CD-ROM on the laptop, it seems to be taking place, in that the drivers recognition process where apparently being installed (we have no disk windows 98), so I assumed it was launching this process that everything was fine. But when I put a cd in the drive, the message: there is no cd rom on that computer drive came! I tried several times, and the same problem occurred. I checked the Device Manager and there is no cd drive. I tried to go into the multimedia program, but there is nothing on the cd rom. But there is a cd rom drive help and how to use it. So I'm pretty confused as to what could be the problem. Do I need to get a cd rom drive new/second hand? I thought about the drivers and download them but as we drive to the web I don't have access to the internet. Help with this would be so much appreciated.

    I'm no afficiando on computers, so any information base or advice to help me get started would be great.

    Thank you

    I have no adequate response, because this device is not known to me (almost 10 years). The fact is that if you look at the Toshiba download page you will find drivers for Windows 95 and not for 98.

  • Adding second DVD - Rom SATA HP Pavilion with only 2 SATA power connectors.

    Try to add a second SATA DVD Rom but do not see more SATA power connectors?  I tried to discuss with Tech, desperate!  Don't understand.  The system came with a SATA hard drive and a SATA DVD/BlueRay so both SATA power connectors are used.  I do not see another SATA power connector in the system, but there are at least 2 connectors SATA DATA more on the system board.  You can even add the old style DVD of as the connectors on the system board do not exsist for the old style DVD ROM.  What they do a converter to SATA power adapter or am I missing something?  Strange.

    If there is not a spare SATA power connection, maybe sometjhing like this would help:

    Hi Defiant1950,

    To add more hard disk space, the simplest method is to attach an external hard drive. If you add an external hard disk, it can't function as your primary hard disk where you install Windows, but you can use it as a secondary disk to store programs and files. Adding an external hard drive is a good way to create plenty of extra space to store the digital photos, videos, music and other files that require a large amount of disk space.

    To install an external hard drive, all you have to do is plug it into your computer and connect the power supply cable. Most of these hard disks plug into a USB port, but some connect to a Firewire (also known as IEEE 1394) or external SATA (eSATA) port. For additional instructions, see the documentation that came with your external hard drive. You will also need to install a software that came with the hard drive.

    In my opinion, you should contact partner in your country. They can order each hardware component or any part of the accessories for each model of laptop computer independent of how old the model has.
