  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:

  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...)

• Install a secondary hard drive

  I have a small form factor and want to install a second hard disk in the optical drive.

  The new Seagate drive came with all the SATA cables. and the optical drive cable usual additional split from him. One of these cards is part of the new drive, but one that goes to the motherboard is too short to reach the appropriate connector. Seems that I just need a very short extension, but when I do my shopping for one I'm overwhelmed by a mess of all sorts of types of plug SATA cables and cable whose pictures are not clear enough for me to recognize exactly what I need.
  
  Can someone advise me please I need re this plug on each end, as well as the extension of better quality? Guidance appreciated.
  
  Clueless in Cableland,
  Rob

  Hi, Rob:

  I don't know what you plug installed on the hard drive, but like I said if it was the biggest power supply sata plug, I think what you need is then the sata data cable.

  One with a female end straight to the motherboard and the other female 90 degrees on the hard drive.

  SATA cable speed ratings do not matter.  Just get one that will reach from the motherboard to the hard drive.

  

• Qosmio F30 - installing the new hard drive

  Hello

  I just installed a new hard drive on my Qosmio F30 - he came originally only with a 60 GB hard drive.

  The second disc is identical to the first in every way, i.e. of 60 GB drive Toshiba.

  I initialized the new drive and it also shows online and unallocated. I want to use the reader to basically increase my quality, not like a mirror and so chose this option using the RAID Utility.

  However when I expelore the C drive, it shows than the total capacity of the drives as 60 GB. I guess that both drives should be showing as a player, like 120 GB.

  The drive works properly?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can check in the BIOS if the second HDD is recognized correctly

  As you say you don t want to use a mirror mode, but then you must set the RAID0 stripping!

  Please also check the settings of the BIOS RAID!

  At page 242 user manual you will find all the details on the different options and what they are for

• Satellite A30: Cannot install OS after HARD drive crash

• HP EliteBook 8440p: Best boot option after installing the new hard drive and put to memory.

  I just installed the new hard drive for my laptop and will get the cards of two memory installed tomorrow. I would like advice on what would be the best option to start when the laptop for the first time I'm on fire.

  I have the original Windows HP recovery disk came with the computer.

  I also have a recovery disc and a system image on disks created with Macrium Reflect two days ago.

  I also have a recovery disc and a system image is created on an external hard drive Seagate two days ago. (I've read mixed reviews on these is currently working as a media of rescue with Win7 Pro).

  I guess if I use the HP recovery disc I would be then just use any system image I prefer, without the recovery disk. Anyone know if it makes a difference at all which method to use?

  bozzle73

  My recommendation would be to restore using the image of MR (Macrium Reflect) you did.

  But then, I used Mr. on all my PCs for years and am a big fan - having had it Miss ever in the years and years of use.

  You will need boot from the boot of MR media (you did that right) and, if you photographed all the required partitions for the operating system, restore it on the new drive should take a few minutes, and when this is done, you reboot and everything should be OK.

  Good luck

• HP Pavilion DV6-6c35dx: potential problems with OS driver install the new hard drive?

  I want to spend the hard drive of my laptop, but my laptop did not come with recovery discs. I buy a full copy of Windows 7 Professional, but I did save it... because when everything has failed, I guess. If I'm able to reinstall Win 7 Home or if I have to install Win 7 Pro, how can I be sure to reinstall all drivers HP (p. ex., trackpad, meaning cool, beats audio, etc.) for my machine? It is best to download the drivers before you install the new hard drive and have them ready on a flash drive. or is there an easier way? Thank you.

  I personally prefer the new OEM installation & then get required drivers to download for HP support for your laptop model.

  It is slower and more difficult to do if it is not too well known, but the end result is much better.

  If your system has flaws you should try to fix first, but better long-term results come from clean install generally.

• Failed to install the new hard drive

  I have a laptop Lenovo R61 on which I want to install a new hard drive, Kingston SSDNow V300 (60GB, 2.5 "), with Linux Mint.

  I have a DVD of installation of Linux Mint. If I have the old hard drive installed, I can start from the DVD and enter Linux Mint where I can install it on the old hard drive.
  If I change the hard drive for the new SSD, the computer starts only in part by the DVD (selection screen appears), then the computer automatically restarts. From AHCI in the BIOS (in Serial ATA menu) to compatibility did not change the behavior.

  Any ideas how I can get Linux Mint installed on my new hard drive?

  Welcome to the forum!

  When you install the SSD drive, also use the metal housing and rubber rails? Are you sure that the SSD is correctly inserted in the Bay?

• What is the largest hard drive that will work in dv6324us laptop computer?

  What is the largest hard drive that will work in a HP Pavilion dv6324us laptop?

  Hello:

  Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01035677.PDF

  Support for HARD drives and capacities are listed in Chapter 3, page 3-25.

  Personally, I think you could install a SATA II 320 GB to your laptop.  Maybe even a 500 GB.

  You could also probably install a drive of 7 200 rpm for better performance or if the battery life between charges is more important for you, then stick with a disk of 5 400 rpm.
