HDD-Caddy for Ideadpad S10e

Hello,
Today I've received my Ideapad S10e (the SSD-Version NS846GE9). Now I'd like to install a hdd into the empty slot, but I've noticed that there's no caddy to tighten the hdd in the slot. In the other Ideapad Versions I saw a caddy which is holding the hdd.
My question is: Is it usual that there is no caddy in the hdd slot in the SSD version? Where can I get a caddy for my Ideapad? Do the caddies from the Thinkpads fit in? Because then I would buy one since I cant find any caddy for Ideapads.
Greetings,
gekko

Need 2nd HDD Caddy for MBP

I have a MBP 4,1 (MB166, 17" Early 2008), this is the last style before apple went to unibody.
I'm looking for a 2nd HDD caddy for my comp, all the ones I am finding are only for unibody! Wondering if anyone knows a place to get a pre-unibody one, thanks!

Do some research on this one. It's listed to fit the 4.1 (and even earlier PowerBooks): http://www.powerbookmedic.com/DualDrive---Add-a-Second-Hard-Drive-to-your-Laptop -p-17316.html

Make sure that the HDD1 with its model is on the Boot priority order list. If it is on the Excluded from boot order list, it is disabled.

"No bootable disk" when installing Windows 7 on Macbook Pro (HDD caddy)

Here's the deal.
I have a 2011 Macbook Pro (8,1) that I bought a HDD caddy for. It's beautiful.
I replaced the superdrive with a 1tb hard drive and it's wonderful. I want to install Windows 7 via bootcamp on it. I go through the steps (create install usb, download extra files, partition the drive) and once it restarts I get the following error:
I press keys, reinsert the usb stick repeatably, and finally hold down the power button to restart. After holding down option to bring up the boot menu, this is what I get:
Where did my other disks go?! I boot normally and check Disk Utility and, look at that, there they all are!
I've gone through variations of this for 3 days now. Please help!

I recently ran into a very similar issue. Windows, or at least Boot Camp, will not boot into an HDD that is installed in the optical drive bay. I do not know why this is, or if there is a way to fix it; all I know is that as soon as I moved my HDD back to the HDD bay, Windows started booting again.
Boot camp has many issues with MacBooks whose optical drives have been replaced, which are well-documented on the web. This article (and its comments) describe many of them, and the workarounds that people have found for them. That said, I think that Boot Camp has improved with Mountain Lion (or possibly with the continued proliferation of optical drive-less machines from Apple), because I was able to boot the Windows installer just fine from the optical drive that I had removed and placed in an external USB enclosure. (Not that it did me any good - I received the dreaded error 0x8030024 when I tried to actually install Windows.)
What worked for me was to install Boot Camp before removing my optical drive, use WinClone to make a copy of that installation, and then clone the image back to the drive once I'd gotten my drives in place.
So, in summary:
Try putting Boot Camp on the drive that's in your HDD bay.
The article I linked describes many of the issues you might run into and provides workarounds for them.
Worst case, you may have to reinstall the optical drive in order to install boot camp, then use WinClone to move the installation to any drive you wish. (Hang onto this image for all future Boot Camp installations.)

T430 Ultrabay or HDD Caddy and mSATA

Hi,
I just ordered my T430 and waiting for delivery. I was wondering if it is possible to use built-in HDD and add a second HDD with UltraBay or HDD Caddy for storage and programs and also add a mSATA SSD for OS installation.
3 Hard Drives on a laptop is what I am looking for. I am a heavy VMware user and need to install separate VMs to separate HDDs. If this is possible, is it advisable?
Also I would be glad if you can give me some advice with the drives. I think with the 2nd HDD (UltraBay or Caddy) I am OK with 12.5 mm but I just couldn't be sure.
Solved!

In response to the original post, I was also going to install the operating system on the mSATA drive but I'm not going to now because there was a post that I read that advised against it.
I can't find the post right now but I highly recommend you do some more research before going into it. Cheers
If you find that post, please post a link.
IIRC there was a thread/post advising to not use the caching SSD that shipped with these machines for the main OS drive.
That was to do with the specific technology of that particular SSD. It was not stating that it was a bad idea to use an SSDs in general for an OS drive.

What type of hdd caddy should i buy for Envy 15 3040nr notebook?

Hi everyone,
I'm considering to replace my optical drive with a ssd in my Envy 15 3040nr. Since I don't have much expeience it would be nice if somebody can share his on this subject. What I need is full specs on the caddy I should buy along with the measures.
Thanks!

Some Envy 15 models came with second bay inside aleady but need reference your model against the service manual downloadable from hp at the support link on this site.
If you don't have model with second drive bay then indeed a caddy for optical bay is easy option.
Your optical bay is 9.5mm Sata interface & they are inustry standard so simple to buy.

I want to dual boot windows 7 and Arch with an HDD caddy.

I am thinking of two possiblities with this scenario. I want to first leave my windows 7 install on the hard drive that came with my laptop, and leave that HDD where it is, but in a few days, i'm getting a caddy so i can switch my optical drive for another HDD, which is going to be a 250gb. On the 250, i want to experiment with arch, and maybe other linux distros, so i can get a nice feel for linux once again, it's been about 2 years since I've played with it. What i am hoping to maybe do is switch those hard drives out, if I can get a linux install i feel 100% comfortable with, and running the windows HDD in the caddy, and the linux HDD installed in the motherboard.
I just have a few questions though. First, is it possible to boot Arch when it is an HDD caddy? and second, would windows possibly work if i moved that hard drive into the caddy later?

Yes, and yes. Both should be quite easy.
You should be able to set you BIOS to boot from one or the other - or alternately you can chainload windows from a linux boot loader quite easily (if/when linux is on the drive that the BIOS has selected to boot).

Satellite P300-20H - Second HDD caddy

Satellite P300-20H, PSPC8E
This laptop has a second HDD bay and a second drive works in the bay.
I have tried in vain to find a HDD caddie for the second HDD bay, can anyone point me in the right direction for the part number or a shop that sells them.
Thanks

I have upgraded brothers P300 with second HDD but I didnt use HDD bay. I have just fixed second HDD to stay in the same position with piece of plastic so that HDD will stay in place.
You can also contact Toshiba service and ask for help. I am pretty sure they have such HDD bays used before and can imagine you can get one.
Visit also eBay/notebooks and check for Toshiba hard drive caddy. I saw several bays there.

HP dv 7 4050ea HDD caddy search

Hello
I know that this has been asked a few times, but the sheer number of different caddies for different ranges of HP laptops out there scares me, so I decided to ask.
I want to add a second hard drive to my dv7 4050ea Pavillion notebook.However, I am unsure as to which caddy models are compatible. The best match I have found yet is this:
http://uk.eetnordic.com/product.aspx?id=KIT340&path=MicroStorage-2nd-HDD-Caddy-Cable-for-HP
I am still not sure if it is the correct one though, and I do not know the site so I am reluctant.
So, can someone here possibly help me find out which caddy I need to buy, and if possible, point me towards a trustworthy site which ships to the UK or to Greece? Would it be possible to order this part directly from HP, and if so, where?
Thanks.
This question was solved.

This looks OK but I have more experience with newmodeus.com:

We have had several Forum users report success with this part on the dv7-4000 second hdd bay.

Hello
Such HDD caddy that you mean you can get from an authorized service provider. They sell all original Toshiba spare parts and there you can buy one.
By the way, here you can search for nearest authorized service provider:

NewModeUS HDD Caddy

I bought this HDD Caddy from NewModeUS to put an additional drive in the UltraBay adapter. There is a clear plastic layer with a tab on the end over the side of the caddy that has the perforated holes in it. Usually I've seen this tab to help pull the hard drive out of it's slot in a computer but I haven't seen it completely cover the perforated holes of the caddy before.
Anyone know if I should leave the plastic layer on the caddy or not? Will it effect the temp of the drive?
Thanks,

New HD Caddy for NB205

Is it possible to purchase a new Hard Drive Caddy for the Mini nb205? I just received my nb205 in the mail today, and I have an SSD that I would like to put in, so I took the stock HD out. The screws that attach the caddy to the HD were screwed in so tight, I stripped 3 of the screws.

I would also love to buy a replacement one. I stripped one of them, tried several ways to remove it including a screw extractor with no chance.
Installed the SSD without it, but I still want a replacement caddy to make it safer.
UPDATE: I was finally able to remove the stripped one. Used a larger drill bit on the screw and then used a square-type (I don't know what it's actually called) screwdriver. It looks like I didn't break anything on the Toshiba HDD, but didn't test it to be honest...
