Can i replace the dvd burner with a second hard disk in my pavilion dv6 6915nr?

Can I remove the dvd burner and replace it with a secondary bay hard disk?

Hi,
Yes you can, you need something like this to hold the HDD (or SSD):

Can I replace the DVD drive with a BlueRay Burner?

I have the HP Pavillion a6647c. I assume so but don't know if it takes more power. I learned from an ealier lost I can't really upgrade my video card as my power supply isn't strong enough. 230W I think.
Just incase some knows this answer too......my goal is to burn my HD movies off the hard disk and on to blue ray disks. Currently the playback of the movies on the PC is a bit jerky and I've been told by Canon I need a better video card. Will a movie I burn to a blueray also be slightly jerky on my TV through my blueray player or is it just when played on the PC?
Thanks

Yes, you can update the DVD burner to a Blu-ray buner. A movie that you have burned to a Bluray disc should play smoothly on your Blu-ray player. Your PC and your Blu-ray player are apples and oranges.
Kind regards,

Have you replaced your optical drive with a second hard disk?

Hi guys,
I am currently thinking about replacing my optical drive in my MacBook Pro for a 256 GB SSD, as my main hard drive is getting filled up.
Have you replaced the optical drive in your computer, and what is your experience? I'm looking at either OptiBay or OWC Data Doubler. Which would you recommend?
Thanks!

Actually I'm about ready to do this myself.
I installed a SSD in my Windows 7 desktop PC about 9 months ago and the difference is just amazing.
I bought a new Dell Latitude and got it about a week ago, very fast but not as fast as my desktop. I then ordered a modular bay hard drive enclosure to replace the optical drive and another SSD. Installed the drive I had as my boot drive, a 750GB 7200RPM drive, in the modular bay enclosure and installed the SSD as the main boot drive. System screams.
I then look at my MBP late 2011 with i7 CPU and the 5400RPM drive that comes with it. Slow comparatively.
So I've been hunting around and I think I've settled on the Optibay as it comes with a optical drive enclosure and the proper cable to connect that drive to a USB port.
I will mount the SSD in the optical bay caddy and make that my Boot drive leaving the original HDD where it is as the mounting system for it has shock absorbers. The SSD I will get willl be the 6GB type as but the main SATA port and the optical bay port are both 6GB.

Hi
You can use a different version of the JDK by following these
steps:
1. Tools | Default Project Properties (or Project | Properties
depending on your need).
2. Target JDK version: Click Define.
3. Click New. Browse for java.exe. The Class path and Source path
will auto-populate.
4. Click OK.
5. Select the new target JDK for any existing projects you wish
to use.

Can I replace the screen myself with a kit on my iPod touch?

Can I replace the screen myself with a kit on my iPod touch? Stores are charging in excess of 100 dollars to fix them.

Note, though, that if you do the repair yourself or have any unauthorized shop do it, you will void any further support from Apple, including having them replace the iPod for their out-of-warranty replacement fee.

Since I am writing the book in Italian,how can I replace the word CHAPTER with CAPITOLO ?

Since I am writing the book in Italian, how can I replace the word CHAPTER with CAPITOLO ?

I think you need to run iBA in Italian so the templates are in that language. You can do that by switching your OS X to Italian and then reopening iBA or perhaps by using this app to just change the iBA language:

W540 replacing the cd drive for a second hard drive?

Hi,
I ordered the thinkpad w540 last week. With a regular disc hard dirve and a CD compartment. I figured out after the coputer arrivied that i had a solidsate inside my hp xps 15.
In the best case scenario i would like to replace the CD drive, as the optional config from the online web page said it could be done. How could i figure out if it be possible to replace the CD drive with another Hard Drive?
If not i would be looking at replacing the original disc hard drive for the solid state, but in that case i would loose the windows 8 system. Is is possible to install it again in the new hard drive, with the same license?
I was just wondering because it would be nice mantain the drive inside the computer instead of having to plug it in all the time, and because of the faster speed it would be good to use is as the primary dirver.
Thanks in advance,
-Jorge

Hi Jorge
you will need a "caddy" adapter to house the second HDD/SDD. Just surch here in forum, see http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?location=forum-board%3AW_ThinkPads&q=caddy... .
For my W540 I am using the caddy from http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=555 and have very good experience over years (W510, W520, W540...).
Regarding replacing original HDD with SSD, there are basically two possibilites - either you use the recovery option (create your own media - see google or try to get one from Lenovo - not sure it will work) or use some transfer software. I am using since years the Acronis products, especially because it recognizes the SSD and aligns everything as it should be on SSD (do not want to go now too deep into sector alignment and so far).
And if you want to run your W540 on steroids, aka max possilbe storage capacity, see my signature...

MBP july 2009, replacing the dvd burner UJ 868

Any suggestion about with what replace the uj 868? is the 898 ok or please something else?

You should be able to replace that drive with any slimline (Notebook Style) "Slot loading" CD/DVD burner available, which there is a very small selections.
All modern CD/DVD drives have the exact same connections, power and data, in the exact same physical place on the drive case.
But it must be the same type of drive. Type meaning the data interface, SATA or PATA. More then likely yours is a SATA as PATA went out of use 6+ years ago.

Can i replace the optical drive with a adapter to house an extra hard drive

so i want to put one of these http://compare.ebay.com.au/like/321126164672?ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&cbt=y&_ lwgsi=y&item_id=321126164672
will it fit and will my computer run faster if i have it ?

It isn't going to do anything with the speed of your computer. It will give you more storage so you can store more things, but nothing with the speed of the overall computer. What would speed it up is to get a faster hard drive then the original one installed which can load data faster, however, putting in a second one isn't going to unless it was faster and you had the OS installed on that one.

Can you replace the Super Drive with the diskdrive from my macbook pro?

Iv been playing with the idea of replacing the disk drive in my macbook pro with an extra SSD for a bit better performance as its extremely rare I actually use the disk drive.
Would it be possible for me to get it installed into my iMac? The one currently in it is history and I'm looking to sell it asap.
Thanks.

I doubt they would. But there is no harm in asking. At the least they would chrage you a labor fee.
Imac's aren't the easiest computer to take apart. I think the cover glass and screen has to be removed to do any work on it.
you should go to ifixit.com and see if they have a tutorial on changing parts in your model imac.

Can I use the time capsule as backup and hard disk at the same time?

Hi.
I want to buy a time capsule.
I wondered, if I can use the time capsule as backup (over time machine) and as a hard disk at the same time?
If I buy the 2TB time capsule, I wanted to use 1TB for the backup and 1TB for hard disk.
Is this possible?
Best wishes
Sophie

It is not recommended.. the problem being anything stored on the TC only is not backed up and cannot be backed up by the TC itself or Time Machine. So what are you going to do about back.. the TC can and do die suddenly.. and the cost of recovery can be huge.
See Q3 here for the semi-right way to do it if you must.
http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
You can plug a USB drive into the TC and use that for files.. but note, its speed is poor.. fine for wireless as wireless is even slower but you will really notice it if you expect the drive to be as fast as the internal.. it will be a fraction of the internal drive speed. 1/2 write and 1/3 read aprox.

Can i share my DVD burner with my PC over the network

is this possible to set my burner to be a slave for my pc over my network. its the burner that came with my G5

You will need software for the PC that can burn to a Mac burner across the network. While Toast will work Mac to Mac I don't think there is anything that does this PC to Mac.

How can I replace the window shadows with a simple border?

Is there any way to change the shadow that's between windows with a simple 1px border?
When using multiple windows the shadow makes it hard to read the text in the "lower" window and removing the shadow using ShadowKiller removes the shadow entirely making it impossible to see the difference between 2 windows.
