• Number of ports SATA on a Pavilion Elite 9250t

  How many hard drives SATA internal can be run in a Pavilion Elite 9250 t?

  I'm not worried about the power from one of the disks will be in the solid state. The machine has enough ports SATA internal to run 3 hard disks without disconnecting the optical drive?

  Brandon,

  Here are the specifications of the motherboard.  Look in the lower right corner; two sata ports are vertical and two sata ports are horizontal.

  Yes, you can run three hard drives.  You could install the third disc by using a 5.25 to 2.5 (3.5) support in the open optical Bay.

• Update of HP Z620 BIOS causing the disc start plu

  Dear Sir

  I updated the system of workstations HP Z420/Z620 (International) BIOS to 03.69 Rev.
  18 June 2014 to my windows 7 Professional. After the reboot, it could not find my boot drive. In the Bios, the order of boot to SATA drive name list is totally a mess, named as "SS", instead of SATA0, etc..

  I boot from my CD of windows 7 Professional and try to fix the system, but he said something like a different type of system.

  What a bad upgrade experience and please help me to recover!

  P.S. This thread has been moved from workstations - Itanium-Based, hp9000, Visualize for workstations - w series, series z, legacy x and xw series. Forum Moderator - HP

  Not sure what would happen when your update of the system BIOS, but the BIOS flashing can be risky, especially if you get a power disruption or during the writing of the BIOS itself, there are a few other firmware issue. For this reason I almost always perform updated the BIOS when the system is connected to the inverter to limit the outages momentary causing failures flash.

  HP also have even known to release a BIOS and then remove it on their download page for undocumented reasons. These reasons may or may not be related to flash failures or other problems, we do not know, only HP really knows, but they don't say.

  For your Z620, you can see the gaps in the list of the BIOS version specified in the last note of release of the BIOS itself. In fact the release notes state that you require 1.07 update to 3.52 or later and says that he must first update to 1.23 (which curiously is not included in the version below the list!).

  So you SHOULD ALWAYS read the BIOS release notes. In fact, you should read all release notes of all BIOS versions available in order to make sure that you know what has changed and what prerequisites indicators exist. It's tedious but better than a flash failure.

  Anyway, from the issue date BIOS, you will notice that your BIOS must be at 1.07 or later to be able to upgrade successfully to a BOS 3.05 or later version. Therefore, you should check to see what BIOS you have done and if you have < 1.07 you MUST update to the latest version of the BIOS BIOS 1.x (to 1.14 BIOS of my reasoning, because it is the most recent in the history of the versions) as it is a sine qua non.

  In fact, I would update BIOS 1.14, then update a BIOS 2.08, then BIOS 2.55 before if we consider a 3.05 BIOS and more late a 3.69 BIOS updated. It is pedantic, Yes, but perhaps a bit more secure (especially if you use an inverter). I always check the version of the BIOS and BIOS (and so the BIOS settings) after each flash before jumping into the OS...

  But even if you cannot start the operating system, you should be able to Flash the BIOS as follows:

  • install 7-zip on a work computer
  • Download the bios appropriate 1.14 or 3.69 for your system and save it
  • Right click the bios file saved, spxxxxx.exe, and then select < 7 - zip > < archive open >
  • Double-click the folder (not name) stated in 7 - zip file manager
  • Double-click on "bios falsh.htm" and read the "flash back" and or sections of "failsafe bootblock recovery."
  • Follow the appropriatesection of those that you just read...

  Therefore, if your system messages, and you can actually get into the BIOS, use the flash BACK method. And depending on what version of BIOS your system indicates boot buring, flashing the BIOS is appropriate (if the system shows BIOS 1.14 1.x then flash, if the system indicates BIOS 3.x then flash 3.69). I hope that this will ensure that your BIOS has been flashed properly.

  Once you are sure that the BIOS is the correct version and date, then look at all the parameters and, hopefully, HARD drive names are listed correctly and your boot disks/raid volume can be found.

  It's also a good idea to go into the BIOS and hit < LTRC > < A >, then go in "system ID and check the entries against the labels on your machine." Pay special notice that the BuildID, SKUNumber & ProductName in BIOS match labels (because they must be correct for the HP system to work recovery discs)...

  The only other thing I can think is that you had two or more HARD drive in a RAID configuration and RAID configuration somehow I messed up. If you use RAID, maybe watch the configuration by pressing CTRL + R or CTRL-C while booting. Do not change anything, because you might lose your data, just look.

  If these things do not help, you will need to be very precise about what you did, what configuration you have, state that the system is and what error messages you receive. You can use a camera and post here as appropriate as someone may be able to help and take some snaps different pages problem BIOS configuration screens, configurations, error messages or other...

  It is also unknown if you use an image from HP and referring to HP system recovery disks or you did (re) installed a vanila MS Win7Pro OS using a disc to install MS Win7. And write "something like a different type of system" is not as useful as the actual error message you get.

• 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!

• Port Sata is in 2119tx Dv6 is 2 sata or sata 3?

  Hi I can't seem to be able to find the version of sata port, if it is a 2 or 3 for sata 2119tx dv6 as wanting to get a SSD for her.

  Thank you

  Hello:

  Your model has a Mobile Intel PM55 chipset that manages a maximum rate of 3.0 GB/S SATA controller.

  Here's the Intel Chipset specs:

  http://www.Intel.com/products/Notebook/chipsets/PM55/PM55-overview.htm

  I'd still get a sata III SSD.  You can always move to a newer model with a controller sata III.

  You'll be glad you did.

• Re: Satellite P300-1AE - port SATA speed

  Hello

  I have wonderd what sata port speed is on my laptop for a possible upgrade to an ssd.
  I know that the chipset is able to use 3 Gbit/S, but I've also read that some company limited the seed to 1.5 Gbps for the extended battery life.
  Given that drives hard base provided with the laptop are 1.5 GB/S, I was wondering if it was capped too?

  Greetings
  Flufsor

  Try a scanner system such as [http://www.crucial.com/uk/systemscanner/] and see what ssd is recommended.

• My system will support a SATA III disc?

  Hello, I got a desktop Pavilion HPE, delivered with a SATA 1 TB Seagate drive. I want to install another internal drive, a SATA III 3 tb, but do not know if the motherboard will support it. No other information HP Support Assistant says what types of drives are supported.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  According to two different documents from HP, your PC has only SATA II ports.  However, a SATA III hard drive will still work.  In addition, the chipset Intel H61 in your PC doesn't support SATA II.

  

• What type of port SATA is it?

  Hello.

  There are two SATA ports on this picture that aren't like something I've never seen before: Red (SATA4) and black (SATA5) ones.  What kind of connector works with this kind of thing?  I tried the splined type 'L' and I do not see that it will work. Or maybe I'm missing something?

  

  Hello

  You can use one of these sata angle left to right sata cables.  It would apply either a left or right sata plug.

• the upgrade of the disk sata hard to new ssd sata 3 disc 1

  I have Hp m9510 running windows 7 64 bit home edition.  The motherboard is ASUS IPIBL-LB (Benicia), my drive sata hard existing 1 running in raid mode.  I want to add a new SATA of SDS 3 as a new startup disc and leave the player sata 1 existing as a backup.  Insofar as the motherboard is built for sata 1, if I install a sata pci card 3 I will then be able to obtain the transfer of higher data rates of the new ssd without causing other problems?

  If your current configuration has a single disc, then your default would be AHCI.

  RAID stands for redundant array or inexpensive disks and requires two or more physical hard disks for the implementation.

  In this case the preferred configuration would also be AHCI. It's a SATA mode. (Advanced host configuration interface) His replacement is IDE (emulation) mode

• RV220W - rules of access/redirection of port with multiple WAN IP addresses

  I just installed a Cisco RV220W - that works very well for outbound traffic, however for incoming it seems unable to work with multiple WAN IP addresses.

  We have a block of 6 WAN IPs assigned to us by our ISP, and I want to use each of them to expose certain ports on our servers to the outside world.

  I tried to do with rules (by using HTTP, for example) with the following parameters:

  Connection type: Inbound (WAN (Internet) > LAN (local area network))

  Action: Always leave

  Service: HTTP

  Source IP: Unique address

  Start:

  Send to the Server Local (DNAT IP):

  Use other WAN (Internet) IP address: disabled

  Status: Activated

  However, the port of the inaccessible Server/rest.

  I tried:

  • Restart the server with power power off again
  • implement the same port forwarding settings
  • triple-checking all the IP addresses used

  The only way that I have working is by changing the access rule so that it applies to any specific source rather than to another address... but this isn't a solution for us because we need to use specific IP addresses to the internal servers/ports specific.

  The interface of the router admin certainly suggests that this should be possible, but using it seems to break all incoming access!

  Any suggestion is welcome.

  You must use "ANY" as the source IP address, you publish your internal server to the internet and the internet means that the request comes from any source IP address (you don't know what it is, so that's all.

  Basically, you want any source IP to hit one of your WAN IP on port 80, and then your firewall will redirect the request to the internal private IP address of the server on the same port 80. And when the answer comes back internal server, the firewall will already have this translate entry in and reverse NAT won't happen (you must configure it, the default firewall function).

  I hope that I have answered your question.

  Please mark as correct, if you like the answer.

  Thank you

• Ports SATA 8700 XPS 2/3/4 not seeing not added Blu - Ray burners

  I bought an XPS-8700 (16 GB of RAM / HD 2 TB) at Costco online and received on Friday.

  Until it happens, I had ordered three items for this:

  Plextor PX-256M5M mSATA SSD

  LG WH14NS40 Blu - Ray burner

  Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (not a fan o0f Windows 8)

  I installed the SSD drive and it works fine.

  I then installed the LG Blu - Ray into the slot ODD1 engraver and connected the cable to the SATA 2 port. After starting the system, I was a little surprised to not see Adding Blu - Ray burner.

  I tried then reverse SATA cables will ODD0 and ODD1. Now, the LG Blu - Ray burner is there, but not the DVD recorder provided. I reversed the wires without modification in present readers think that the new SATA cable could be bad.

  Then I tried to connect the added drive SATA 4 and SATA 3 with no luck.

  From what I can tell, the new burner LG Blu - Ray and SATA cable are both fine in their work when it is connected to the SATA 1.

  The DVD/CD burner, nor added Blu - Ray burners work on SATA 2 ports, 3 or 4.

  I guess (and we all where that leads) that the second optical drive is supported as the two upper bays are labeled ODD0 and ODD1.

  Any ideas as to what is needed to get the XPS-8700 to recognize a CURIOUS on 2-4 SATA ports?

  Thanks in advance,

  Ed

  Even though I know that this Post goes back to August 2012, today's date is January 20, 2014... I thought that I would say because I have to bought a XPS8700 and he received just 3 days ago.

  After installing a 2nd HDD internal who were executed in my Dell XPS420 (OS Win7)... when I first started my XPS8700 running Windows8... Windows has not seen the 2nd internal HARD drive.  I could see the 2nd HDD wooden (like this poster)... but not in Windows.  He did not appear in the 'Computer', the Manager of devices or disk management.

  Read this Posters comment, I really thought I had a XPS8700 with a bad motherboard since the poster wrote the 2nd XPS8700, he got... its added reader has been detected by Windows... However, in my case... it was not the result.

  I contacted Dell and arrangements were made to have a technology specialist call me.  I explained what I did to include moving the DVD installed Dell, which has been seen by Win8... from motherboard Port 1 to Port 2 (where I had connected the 2 internal)... and Windows does not see the DVD drive.  He confirmed that he would be the Port of the motherboard.  In settings Dell prior WOOD under Win7... you had to get into WOOD and turn on each SATA motherboard and OFF connections... I could not find in the WOOD of XPS8700.

  The final document; the Dell specialist had me go back into the WOODS... had me click each tab in the WOODS... it was obvious that he was looking for a framework he hoped that should correct the problem.  Tab START of WOODS, he had me stressed "Secure Boot"... which was displayed as ACTIVE, click ENTER and change for disabled in the Popup window, use exit F10 WOOD and SAVE the settings.

  XPS8700 seemed to take a long time to start for Win8... it just seemed slow, I thought that now things are really foires... I can't even start to Win8.  But when she took what seemed like forever, nothing better than just watching a blank screen, when it finally starts screen Win8 tiles and I opened the 2nd HHD 'Computer', I installed was displayed and I managed to get it... write to her...

  From what I have studied the COURSE wood is set to "ENABLED"... and it blocks Ports to the motherboard, so that if another device is connected that has an operating system installed the PC will not see it.  If this is true, why wouldn't not Dell communicate this?  Better yet, how many users would connect another device with a BONE... why not the XPS8700 of ship with the SECURITY setting set to DISBALED?  How many people encounter this same problem said their mother was bad... and Dell paid to replace them, worse still, returned their XPS8700...?

  I will add, it took a few reboots after that setting has been changed to DISABLED before my XPS8700 started upward and as quickly as he did before the change in closing...

  A mere 3 second difficulty... to a very complicated problem... Hope this helps the other faced with this question

• XPS 8500 2 3 port sata or not?

  I read that the 8500 XPS 5 SATA port is the 2nd SATA III, but Intel Rapid Storage is reported as SATA II with my drive.  I tried all ports and the only port that signals of SATA III is 0.  Anyone else seeing this?  My office is the new XPS 8500 (i7-3770) 2 x 3 240 GB SSD in raid 0 agility.  I use the latest version of the bios A05.

  Hello

  I apologize on behalf of Dell. There is an error on the online manual, and we reported it to the product team. Here is the actual configuration out of our training for the XPS 8500 manual

  This system has 1 x Sata Revision 3.0 (SATA 6 Gbps) and 3 connectors X SATA revision 2.0 (SATA 3 Gbit/s). The following table illustrates the Configurations of the SATA Port.

  SATA revision Connector

• 2 ports SATA and 3 not supported.

  Hello

  I have a dell Dimension E520. This map of mother of computers has four visable Sata Ports and five lists in the Bios. My problem is that I bought a new DVD burner and you want to keep the provided reader with unit so this model has an extra Bay to put a CD or DVD extra in but drive Sata 2 ports and three are disabled in the bios and there is no option to activate. So, I'm just not lucky to have two players or drives in my computer all together because of the bios software, or can someone help me.
