How many hard disc slots?

Hi,
I am wondering how many hard disc slots are supplied with the MSI GP60 2PE-035NL. Hopefully someone can tell me?

  • How many Hard Drives ?

    I've been fortunate to receive a PowerMac G4 733mhz (Digital Audio) along with a Sony 20" CRT monitor at no cost and I'm looking to get all the performance that I can out of it.
    So far I've maxed out the RAM and added an iogear USB 2.0 card along with a SIIG Utra ATA 133/100 Pro controller card. The Radeon 9800 pro video card is a couple weeks away yet.
    I now have a 160gb and a 60gb as master/slave on the main board, and another 160gb on the controller card in which I'm adding another 80gb to tonight.
    I am wondering how many hard drives I can add before I have to start worrying about the power supply. Keep in mind that I'm going to be adding the video card in the future.
    I also see that SIIG card says OSX 10.1 or later, does this mean that I cannot connect a drive that boots into OS 9 to the card? Or a drive that may have Yellow Dog Linux?
    Thanks, I'd appreciate any input about this new project of mine.

    Hi-
    OK, let's talk power.... This is what we have to work with (may be slightly higher depending on PSU model):
    DA 338W PSU
    +5V=20A
    +3.3V=24A
    +28V=4.04A
    +12V=8A
    -12V=0.25A
    Total on combined +3.3V and +5V =126W @32A
    Of course, there is a big difference between idle and load power consumption, but I will list maximum power consumption values. Various requirements are:
    ATA/100 Hard drive- Read/Write, approx. 12.8W [email protected], [email protected]
    Optical Drive- Full Speed (42x) read, approx. 5.6W [email protected], 15.7W [email protected]
    Memory (per 512mb DIMM) 1-3W combined 3.3V,+5V,[email protected]
    PCI and AGP slots combined max +3.3V, +5V=62W, AGP (only) up to 20W
    Firewire Bus 15W+25V
    USB Bus 5v@500mA per port
    733mhz PPC processor 1.6V 15.6W (Idle) 22.0W (load)
    Fans (combined) +12V [email protected]
    As for the Radeon 9800 Pro, under full load, the power requirements are:
    +5V [email protected]
    +12V [email protected]
    +3.3V(AGP) [email protected]
    +5V (AGP) [email protected]
    +12V (AGP) [email protected]
    Points to consider (no particular order):
    -An ATA hard drive at idle, will still pull 7.2W and at Standby, will pull 1.4W.
    -Unless you are running 2 RAID sets, you would rarely, if ever, have 4 drives simultaneously in Read/Write.
    -One process that will push a system to the max is disc burning. Consider CPU at load, one, possibly two hard drives at Read/Write load, and the Optical drive at load. (For all who care, this is why we don't multi-task during burning). Without multi-tasking, the graphics power draw is minimal.
    -Weak point of early ATX PSU revisions was the 12V rail. The G4 PSU also has a weak +12V rail (only 8A).
    (Run a dual internal RAID, and try to burn a disc..... well, you better set the machine up as a headless server.....)
    -Total combined +3.3V, +5V wattage and ampherage is sufficient for most fully loaded system and bus combinations.
    -The power requirements of the 9800 Pro are all within the maximum limits of the various voltage rails of the OEM PSU.
    -A 237W PSU equipped Sawtooth will run without problems with two hard drives (one system, one storage), a 2.0ghz 7447 processor, USB 2.0 PCI, Radeon 9800 Pro and AC VGA fan. Additional hard drive (scratch drive), PCI cards, HDD fans and lighting overload the +12v rail for operation at load with disc burning. (we're talking about real life experience here...)
    -Hard drives are heat producers, and an external firewire connected housing can allow for better overall system operation by reducing interior clutter and heat production.
    -High interior temperatures reduce the ability of the PSU to cool itself, and thereby reduce it's ability to produce reliable power under load, in the heat.
    -Old ATA hard drives are power hogs and hot in comparison to current SATA drives. Switching to two larger SATA drives will reduce load requirements by 3-4W per drive, as well as reduce heat production. Required use off a SATA PCI controller card eliminates the capacity restriction of the native ATA controller. Switching to SATA saves space, power, and cooling needs.
    -And, final (random) thought to consider, a dual 500mhz Gigabit Ethernet (same PSU as the DA) will run two ATA drives simultaneously, burn a DVD, with a 9800 Pro installed, without any problems whatsoever. The same machine will run 3D graphics intensive games at enjoyable framerates, without problem. Internet video, on line games, etc., are all enjoyable, with reasonable performance for the given CPU speed. All uses of the machine are without problem, with the added graphics benefit provided by the 9800 Pro (Yep, another real life experience).
    Now, you decide....

  • How many hard drives can fit in a x120e?

    Hello, how many hard drives can fit? I'd like to keep the included hard drive but also add a small ~30GB SDD to host Windows on. Is this possible or is there only one free SATA port?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Oh, there's an mPCIe slot? Will this work/fit along the standard HDD?

  • How many hard drives should i get to get the most out of premiere on my laptop?

    Hello,
    I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro Late 2013 with 512gb ssd, 16gb ram and 2gb 750m graphics card. I was wondering how many external hard drives i should get to get the best results in Premiere Pro and After Effects. I'm thinking about buying a smallish portable hard drive for cache and another for media. How many hard drives do you think i should get, what size they should be and how it would improve Premiere and After Effects please.
    Thanks Heaps

    I agree with JFP...above.  But if you have a USB3 interface on that MacBook, you can also try using it as I have on my PC laptop
    For simplicity on my PC laptop I would just go with a fast USB3 flash drive for the project and media files.  I have several PNY Turbo USB3 128GB units and have recently edited a 1-hour long three AVCHD camera shoot (not multicam mode) with perfect ease.  That way you do not have power cables from hard drives.  I suspect that the new SanDisk Extreme Pro will match those speeds below but at a much higher cost ($140 versus $50).  Never believe the manufacturers speed claims here are real achievable results on the PNY.
    That read speed is better than most hard disk drives as it does not fall off as the storage device gets full, and the access time is significantly better despite significant USB overhead.

  • How many hard drives can i stream from one mac for apple tv

    Hi a newbie to all this ive got a 500gb external hd and running out of space but am looking to buy a 1tb but i want to set it up as im using both hard drives so i get 1.5tb as this is a cheaper option for me is this possible and how
    many thanks for your time

    You need to turn off the option to copy content to the iTunes folder in iTunes preferences, then when you add new content to iTunes you will need to place the content on one of the HDDs and then drag and drop it onto iTunes from a finder window.
    Or you can alternatively leave the "Copy" option on and simply press the Alt-key when dragging and dropping content to momentarily suspend the "Copy" of the dragged content to the library. (I.e., iTunes will gladly manage both copied and non-copied content as long as you do not move or delete the non-copied files at the Finder level after adding them to the iTunes database.)

  • How many Hard Drives can a G4 DA Support?

    Hi. I'm putting an old G4 466MHz Digital Audio to use as a file server but I want to make sure I don't over strain the power supply or something worse.
    I currently have a Sonnet Tempo SATA card in one PCI slot running 2 hard drives (1.5tb and 160gb) as well as two IDE hard drives of 80gb. The book disk is one of the SATAs.
    Would I be able to fit as many as 8 hard drives (2 per card x 4 cards) or would that be too much of a drain? Would it help if one of the IDE drives was used as the boot disk leaving all the SATAs for storage or would that make no difference?
    Thanks.

    Hi-
    4 drives is all that the machine was meant to use.
    One might squeeze another drive or two in, but more than power, the heat of the drives will probably be the problem.
    Overheating a PSU makes reliable power production more difficult, and with multiple drives demanding that power, the problem compounds quickly.
    It doesn't matter native ATA or SATA.
    All the drives pull power.
    Go all SATA, and use 1.0 TB drives (or bigger) and you won't need 8 drives......

  • How many hard drives can i install in my mac pro

    How do I know what size hard drives I can install?  I currently have 4 x 2TB drives installed and am looking to go bigger.  4 x 4TB would be ideal and if you have suggestions on which drives might give me best performance for HD video editing that would be nice too.
    Also can I install more RAM?

  • Am I on right track for 1st Bluray burn?  Getting concerned over how many 25gb discs needed......

    Hello
    I am working my way through my own HD 1st edit with CS5.5.2.  Using tutorial book, on line support and a paid tutor.  It is for a 1 hour 40 minute project of an important event, 1st time for a client I want to keep.  Things are looking OK....I think.
    Specifics:  Shot 1080i 29.97 35mbs 4:2:0.   I'm on OS 10.7.5  with 6 core 3.46 Mac Pro 48gb RAM.  Very happy with edit.  But have tried tests with 16 minute length exports of section of the time line to self contained QT.  All at max bit rate and quality.  And also at progressive frame rate at the suggestion of my tutor.
    Animation   156gb  
    H.264           17.6gb
    mpeg 4           9.7gb
    All look great!  But am I going to have to get 50gb discs to keep this at no more than 2 discs?  (preferably 1 if will fit on a 50gb disc)  Obviously 3 hour Lord of The Rings type movies do. 
    Not even sure as this is 1st time....if the internal LG 12x with Lightscribe (dvd only) internal drive that OWC put into it when they upgraded and built this machine for me on their "performance" side.......will even burn dual layer discs?  Now I can't find the exact skew number on it on their site that is on my invoice.  Do these in general burn dual layer?    Am I going to need dual layer if I drop down to 8 bit and whatever other recommended settings, that I am hoping someone here can please help me with?  I'm assuming from the above I need to use mpeg 4 settings and go back to 1080i 29.97 that the project was set up for.
    Thanks very much
    Ron

    Jim.....I am confused about this MXF OP1a "self contained" format.  I took my test 16 minute portion of my main sequence as I have above with the other formats and exported to this format.  It said it was going to "4:2:2 50".  Which sounds great.  Better than it was shot....with the main Sony PMW 320 recording at 35mbs 4:2:0.  The encode was screaming fast, only about 5 minutes.  And the file was the smallest yet....only 7.31gb.  Great!! 
    How do I make a bluray burn out of that?  I tried creating a new sequence in my project and inporting this and dropping it on my time line and then trying the Adobe Dynamic Link process and it said it could not do that to Encore. Previously today I was successful using the Dynamic Link process just straight from that 16 minute section of my sequence time line.  And the burned bluray took only around 2.93 gigs and about 15 minutes.   It looked fine on a 61" LED DLP rear projection set. 
    But as previously mentioned I don't want to keep the entire project files on my drives once I am done.  I need a high quality self contained version so I have the archived copy, and can also burn from it additional copies down the road if needed.  How do I do that with this MXF OP1a file??  Will it look as good as the disc I got directly from my 16 minute test portion of my edit? 
    Again, this is all new territory for me but I'm doing good and making great progress thanks to everyone's help.
    Thanks much

    Can I then use the Dynamic Link and auto setting that Ann is talking about
    You can, yes.  Personally I prefer not to.  The transcodes get saved to the folder and it makes archiving more cumbersome.
    Projects don't have 'settings' any more.  You can have any number of dfferent sequences in the same project.  But yes, you'd not change the sequence settings.  MXF OP1a would be an export option for archiving.

  • How many hard disks on G4/466???

    How is the maximum hard disks that I can connect into my G4/466? Now I have two hard disks... I want to add one more... is possible???
    Also: What can I do to accelerate my G4/466??? With System X there're some times is slowly than with system 9.2.2
    Thanks

    You can put 4 HD's in your DA G4 but you need to get a controller card. Get a SATA HD controller card. There are faster then ata/ide HD's & can be put in a G5, when the times comes.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Sonnet%20Technology/TSATA/
    Just make sure when you get the SATA HD you set the jumper pin to SATA 150/1.5 Mbs because the SATA drives on the market now are SATA II (300/3.0 Mbs)
    To make your G4 faster, 1st thing is max out the ram to 1.5gigs. OS X needs ram.
    Second is to upgrade the processor, stick w/ the 7455 processor w/ the L3 cache.

  • How many hard drives can i install in a new 2013 imac 27"

    hi there,
    i was just wondering if the 2013 imac 27" came with two hard drive bays?
    when looking through the specs there no longer seems to be an option to have an ssd, as well as, a standard internal hd (only fusion drives/??)
    is it possible for me to set the new imac up with, for example, a 250gig ssd and then a 1 or 3 tb storage drive?
    thanks in advance..

  • How many hard drives can you put in a pavilion p2

    Can I put one or two more hard drives into a Pavilion p2 1122? Is there a particular spec or physical size that this must be?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Your HP Pavilion p2-1122 Desktop Computer only has space for one hard drive in it... the one installed at the factory. The only way to add any more drive internally, is to remove the CD/DVD and use that space, or to fabricate and install a drive cage... room permitting.

  • How many hard drives do I use

    Hey Gang,
    I have 2 internal hard drives. I read a post recently that mentioned something about having your app, samples/loops, and songs on different hard drives. Is this because of all the reading that must be done when the song is playing? I have gotten 'CoreAudio Overload'? while playing some songs.
    I know I can freeze, bounce, etc. tracks and all that but I am more curious as to the fastest way to move data when it's required.
    Should I consider an external Firewire HD? What's with the desktop RAID? Better than a reg HD?
    Thanks,

    Here are a bunch of tips for getting the most out of your EXS24
    FOR SMALLER CPU (G4) WITH MORE RAMS (2-4GB) try this:
    Open EXS24, go to options>virtual memory
    for Disk Drive Speed select "Slow"
    for Hard Disk Rec. Activity select "Extensive"
    Then Apply
    Doing this will release pressure from the hard disk and the CPU when you are loading samples.
    It also release pressure from the HD/CPU when you are recording EXS24 or playing back sounds through EXS24.
    FOR BIGGER CPU (G5) WITH LESS RAMS (1-2GB)
    Open EXS24, go to options>virtual memory
    for Disk Drive Speed select "Fast"
    for Hard Disk Rec. Activity select "Less"
    Then Apply
    Doing this will release pressure from the RAMS when you are loading samples.
    It also release pressure from the RAMS when you are recording EXS24 or playing back sounds through EXS24.
    MOVING SAMPLER FOLDERS TO EXTERNAL OR ANOTHER DISK :
    Move all your samples to which ever other disk you want (external or another internal)
    Then from the moved samples folder(s) create an ALIAS,
    move that alias back to the original place and rename it so that it doesn't have alias at the end.
    example:
    ( Hip Hop kit.alias --> hip hop kit)
    After this, make sure you run PROJECT MANAGER to scan the new location so that it doesn't force itself to load each time you try to launch EXS24
    p.s.: make sure you don't move the samplers, the samplers are the EXS24 files with .exs at the end
    this files are only small in size and logic requires it to be in the the sampler folder under logic folder
