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.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • How  many hard drives can you stuff in the MDD?

    I know Apple supports 4 drives, but I'm sure it's possible to shove more in, is there?
    The G5's can stuff lots of drives with the little amount of space they have..

    AJ must be using tri-focal lenses or those
    stereo-optical 3Ds ;-))
    Or an alternate reality.
    Hey now, thats my hometown you are talking about!
    I have a 200, 2x80s raid, and a 30 in my MDD. Thats 4.
    The 2x80s are in the front bays. The 200 & 30 are each on a single carrier in the bottom of the case.
    The raid and the 200 are hosted by the Sonnet card. The 30 is on the motherboard.
    If I trade out the flat carrier for H bracketes, I can get 2 more drives in there.
    ummm...ok, thats 6, not 5. (public school math, what can I say? )
    Now dump the optical drives, and you can have 2 more. You can connect them to the motherboard conroller (but they'll be slow) or add another controller card.)
    So 8, assuming you have a 3rd party controller or two and a couple of 3.5->5.25 adapter brackets, a couple of Y power cables, and verify the power supply can feed it all, you can get up to 8 HDs in an MDD case.

  • 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?

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

  • 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?

  • 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 much hard drive can i put in?

    I just recently purchased a Mac Pro from early 2006. It has the 2 X 2.0GHz Dual Core (4 core) Xenon 5130 processors  with 2 GB of Ram. It came with 250 GB of hard drive space which I am looking to expand. However, I would like to know what the maximum capacity the processors and/or Ram can handle so that way I don't destroy the computer. So, does anyone know?

    RAM. You do want more no matter what. Amazon: 2x2GB $36 and I would get at least two for 8GB (and pull the 2GB you have)
    Disks: $110 will buy you:
    1TB WD Black / 128GB SSD / WD 10K VelociRaptor 250GB all good solid and improvement
    And do not put all your files on the one drive. Use the four disk bays: system, data, backup at least.
    $300 with work and tutorials on MacRumors and Youtube a pair of 5355 2.66's 8-core
    Same system I have and still going better than before.
    And ATI 5770 or something but you will not be able to boot from any DVD or pre-10.6.5 system.

  • 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 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 an HP Elite m9250f handle

  • 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.

    You can find answers to both at OWC as well as installation tutorials. I think you will find 1 to 1.5 TBs are the largest.

  • 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 motions tweens can you have on a timeline?

    I'm a college student in Seattle.  We just had our mid-terms in Flash CS5.  One of the really simple questions was "How many motion tweens can you have on a timeline."  Yup.  The answer is one...... or is it?  I had a long discussion with my tutor (who is the greatest tutor in the world) and he wanted to think about it. I said to him that I thought that one motion tween was wrong because you can click on an object in the timeline, make it a motion tween, and double click it and make several motion tweens.  So, essentially, you can have more than one motion tween on a timeline.  Is anyone able to advise me because this is all about grades!

    You can have quite a few motion tweens on a timeline.  You can even have them happening simultaneously (I don't know of a specific limit), as long as they are all on their own layers.  Though the more you add simultaneously the more they can weigh down the speed of things running.
    If you need to prove this to someone, the easiest way is to create it and demonstrate it.  But you may want to check the exact wording of the question... it would not be beyond an examiner to throw a trick question in.
