How to install a second HDD in Stelllite P200D

I want to install a SSD and move my HDD into the slot for the second HDD. I can't find any document how to install the second HDD. Do I need special adapter or any HW to do that?
kind regards Frank

Hi
At the bottom of the unit you can find two HDD bays. Right?
But one of the bays does not contain any connectors? Right?
At the first look this might be a little bit strange but fact is that different Satellite P200/P200D models were available on the market with different motherboards.
Some would support a 2nd HDD but some units dont. But all models supports the same bottom covers and some people think that an 2nd HDD would be possible which is wrong.

    Hi,
    You can install a second HDD in the Upgrade Bay - this is detailed on Page 67 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.

  • Satellite A300-15M - Can I install a second HDD?

    Hi there.
    I own a SatelliteA300-15M. I bought the laptop 2 years ago. I have already 250GB hard drive which came with the laptop. Recently I got my laptop serviced from local shop. I noticed that it has an additional slot for another hard drive. I saw a post that some of the A300/A305 laptops have the space for second hard drive but not the connectors.
    If anyone owns A300-15M can they please tell me if i can install a second internal hard drive in my model? Is there a sure way to find if I can really install a second hard drive?

    Hello
    > but not the connectors.
    So the case is claer: If you dont have a second SATA connector, you cant install a second HDD.
    Check also the forum regarding such questions. The point is that one notebook series (e. g. Satellite A300) is always equipped with the same case but the hardware is different. So not all models have the same features. ;)

  • Satellite X200-245 can i install a second HDD

    on satellite X200-245 : can i install a second hard drive ?
    is it possible ?
    There is a place for it but no sata connection on the mother board where can i find this connector

    No you cannot install the second HDD because there is no HDD connector which would allows to connect the HDD to the mobo.
    And No, its not possible to upgrade the mobo with such connector.
    The X200 has the two HDD bays because some X200 support 2 HDDs and some dont support it.
    Your X200 doesnt support 2 HDD

  • Second HDD for Satellite P200D possible?

    Hi, got a Satellite P200D which I've been very happy with, but need more space - is it possible to either fit a larger primary drive (curently around 200GB) or a secondary drive in the spare bay. If secondary drive is viable option, what leads, connectors, mounts etc do I need?
    Thanks in advance

    If you dontt have such a connector, you cant install a second HDD. Furthermore you cant buy such a SATA connector because they are fixed/soldered on mainboard.
    So your only option is exchanging the HDD with another model. As I wrote you can take a 500GB model. It must be a 2.5 HDD with SATA interface.
    I can recommend a Western Digital Caviar Blue series. Thats a good compromise between performance and noise.
    But of course, Toshiba HDDs will work too. ;)

  • Satellite P205-S6337 - Can I install another second HDD?

    Totally need another HDD for music/other files.
    Really don't want to buy a dock such as.. http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/drives/a7ea/.
    Is it possible that I can install a second SATA HD on this notebook?
    I'm not too good with working with notebooks really.
    Anyone have any instructions on how i would do this?
    And how to install another GB of ram?
    I have both on my old notebook.

    Hi
    Did you check your user manual?
    Usually the user manual provides already such infos.
    Im not quite sure if an second HDD could be possible. Check bottom of the unit.
    Some series are equipped with a second HDD bay. You could try to remove the plastic cover which secures such HDD bay and could check if there are some HDD connectors which would make the second HD upgrade possible.
    It seems that this notebook was also equipped with 2GB RAM So it could be possible to upgrade the RAM up to 4GB. But in my opinion its really not necessary to have 4GB RAM inside if you are using the Windows 32bit OS.
    The point is that your 32bit OS can use max 3.2GB RAM due to the 32bit limitation.
    So if you want to upgrade the RAM then I would recommend taking 1x 1GB and 1x 2GB RAM module.

  • How to install a second Cd/Dvd writier

    I'm wanting to install a second CD/DVD writer. I slipped in into the slot and plugged in the sata cord. Do I just find an unused plug to plug in the power? It makes sense to me, but I just bought a new computer and don't want to mess it up.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    You're basically right so this is just to confirm .  Before you start you should ensure all power to the computer has been disconnected and that you ground yourself or wear an antistatic wrist band.
    1.  Install the CD/DVD drive in a free drive bay
    2.  Connect a SATA cable to your CD/DVD drive and plug the other end in to the next available SATA connector on your        Motherboard.
    3.  Plug in the power connector (there will probably be a spare one very close to the power connector plugged in to your existing drive).
    That is probably all you will have to do and Windows will detect your new drive as soon as you start up.  If by any chance it doesn't, you may need to enter your system Bios to enable the new SATA connection.
    Hope it goes well.

  • Seeking advice, Boot Camp on a Mac Pro, how to install on internal HDD

    Mac Pro, march 09, dual quad core, four internal hard drives.
    I named the four HDDs, Drive 1, Drive 2, Drive 3, Drive 4. Drive 1 has the Mac OS. I plan on dedicating the entire Drive 4 to Windows OS and video storage.
    Questions:
    1. Right now I have Boot Camp installed on Drive 1. I want to remove it and start over because I made the mistake of installing Win7 Pro 32 bit. I bought the 64 bit version for the new install. To remove the existing Boot Camp do I simply use Boot Camp to make Drive 1, one Mac partition again?
    2. Drive 4 is a Western Digital Black Caviar 2 TB. Should I make the entire drive one partition?

    Hi,
    1. The BootCamp Assistant in OSX is indeed the best solution to remove your current Windows installation/partition.
    +To delete Windows and the Windows partition:+
    1 Start up in Mac OS X.
    2 Quit all open applications and log out any other users on your computer.
    3 Open Boot Camp Assistant.
    4 Select “Create or remove a Windows partition,” and then click Continue.
    5 Do one of the following:
    If your computer has a single internal disk, click Restore.
    If your computer has multiple internal disks, select the disk with Windows
    on it, and then select “Restore to a single Mac OS partition” and click
    Continue.
    Since you are fumbling with the partition structure on your harddisk you should have/make a backup or bootable cone of your OSX before starting, just in case.
    2. A good recipe for installing Windows 7 on a dedicated harddisk is to pull out all other harddisks (the first three in your scenario) then boot your MAcPro from the WIndows 7 install DVD and install it on the fourth HD.
    After completion of the WIndows installation you can then reinsert the other three HDs.

  • Installing a second HDD into my HDX18

    So, I've filled the HDD that came with my HDX18 laptop and would like to install a new one into the open space. I bought a 640gb 2.5" but i bought a Bulk HDD and it didn't come with any mounting brackets.  I found these : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816215157&cm_re=2.5_hard_drive_bracket-_-16-21...
    But am not sure if these are what i'm looking for. Any help?

    Hi,
    No, that's to adapt a 2.5" drive to a 3.5" bay, i.e., for a desktop/tower.

  • How to install a second drive?

    I just received my Media Hub that has a 1 TB drive.  I also ordered a 2nd 1 TB drive which will arrive tomorrow.  Is it best to perform the initial installation with the 2nd new drive installed?   Or is it best to do the intitial setup without the new 2nd drive and setup the 2nd drive after the first drive has been configure?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I think its best to setup the mediahub with one harddrive first then add the 2nd harddrive later.
