Pavilion DV7-6030EW HDD Cable Secondary

Hi guys!
I have a problem with finding part number of cable for secondary HDD to my Pavilion DV7-6030ew. I've been googling for a while with no clear results. I bought SSD drive to my NB but now I can't plug it with HDD simultaneously. That cable should by circa 10cm long to reach the secondary HDD brackett. Any ideas?

Yes the best place to get it is newmodeus.com. I have been buying hard drive caddies/cables from them for over ten (10) years and when I have suggested newmodeus here, if I hear back it from the Forum User they are all happy I made the referral:

What is the maximum HDD size for Pavilion DV7-3105ea and can I add a 2nd HDD.

Hi,
Please could someone advise me as to the maximum HDD size that can be installed in a Pavilion DV7-3105ea.
Additionally is it possible to add a second HDD.
Thanks and kind regards,
jB

There is no theoretical limit the only limit is what is sold on the market. Any correctly sized SATA laptop drive will work. They do now make 1TB drives that will fit and yes there is a secondary hard drive bay so theoretically you could have 2TB of storage. You are going to need 1 or 2 drives like this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152291
The drive has to be 9.5 mm in height some 1TB laptop drives are too thick.
You also likely need a second hard drive caddy/connector like this:
http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=222&zenid=2a83d0d222d80c6...
And here is a link to the Manual showing how to get to the hard drive bay:
Drive Manual
Check your system to see if a secondary drive caddy/connector is there but it likely is not and you need the part linked above. Good luck.

How to clone my HDD on my Pavilion dv7

I would like to clone my Pavilion dv7 HDD. It has a WD 1T HDD. I purchased another WD 1T HDD from bestbuy and a StarTech HDD Duplicator. It fails during inital Cloning. Called StarTech and they said I need to find out from HP if there was a HPA (Hidden Protected Area) on my drive. Can anyone tell me if there is a HPA on my HP HDD?
I really want to have a full backup of my drive just in case. My lap top is two years old and I use it a lot.

Hello themanafreak. I understand your notebook is getting warm during use.
First, you should ensure that the cooling system of the notebook is free of dust and debris but cleaning the notebook as per these instructions.
Also, another good step to take is to ensure that you have the latest version of the BIOS installed. I can locate the latest BIOS for you if you provide me with your product number. This document can show you where the product number is located. Finally, I do not know of a way to increase the fan's speed itself but you can set the fan to "always be on" by doing the following.
Reboot your computer and press F10 until the BIOS loads.Navigate to the System Configuration section.Ensure that "Fan Always On" is set to enabled.Navigate to the Exit section and save your changes.
Have a great day!

HP Pavilion DV7-7008tx Laptop - Raid 1 for two 1TB HDDs?

HP Pavilion DV7-7008tx Laptop
B3K25PA#ABG
Windows 7 Home Premium
Hi,
I have a Pavilion DV7 with two 1TB HDDs and a 32GB m-sata cache/ssd.
I would like to put the two HDDs into a RAID 1 (mirror) array.
When I enable RAID I loses the ability to boot into Windows.
I have verified that the Laptop will run the two HDDs in RAID 1 as I can run a Linux Boot disk ahd then boot into Windows 7 succesfully.
Something in the Raid /Boot configuration is not allowing the Laptop to boot directly into Windows.
Any ideas or instruction would be helpful please?
Regards
Gazman

Hello @Micro-Motive ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're having issues booting after setting up RAID 1 on your DV7-7008tx notebook.
When setting up RAID 1 mirrors you need to enable the feature and then format the drives. After they have been formatted Windows must be reinstalled. If you have not already done this, please try it now and let me know if you still have the problem.
Why: Enabling the Raid 1 feature does not automatically mirror the drives. The Boot MGR is looking for the content on both drives but is only finding it on 1 and thus fails to load.
I think it's also important to explain that setting up RAID 1 with a 32GB SSD flash along with a 1TB mechanical drive is going to drastically reduce your storage space. RAID 1 mirrors the content on both drives so it can read from both at the same time, increasing read and write speeds. The downside to this is that the mirror only works to the extent of the smallest drive. Thus, your turning your 1TB drive into a 32GB drive.
See here for more information: Chapter 19. GEOM: Modular Disk Transformation Framework This article is for FreeBSD users, an open source Unix-like operating system but the same rules apply as RAID support occurs at the BIOS level.
What you may want to do is install a hybrid drive. A hybrid drive will allow you to use the speeds of SSD at a fraction of the price. You can read about this here: Hybrid hard drives: How they work and why they matter.
Let me know if you need any more information or if installing Windows after enabling RAID 1 does not work.

Any idea where I can find a cable that fits -- tech support wasnt much help on the phone. But very polite.

Below is the link to the cable I believe you need.

HP Pavilion DV7 flat cable

Hi guys. I have "small" problem with my flat cable..
So, can anyone send me picture with the same flat cable with schedule of wires?
I can fix it, but i don't know wires color schedule
It's HP Pavilion DV7 flat cable.
Thanks.

It may be a lot easier in the long run to just replace the whole cable. I personally do not know what wires go where in the connector, and in my experience, this information can be tricky to find. But you can buy this cable for around $10 on Ebay. It is the video cable that you are looking at. Make sure you use your whole product number, not just the 'dv7' part. It looks like you have a dv7-1xxx or dv7-2xxx series laptop. Now it will be a bit of a process to change it out if you go this way, as you will have to disassemble both the bottom portion and the lcd assembly of the laptop, but there are a lot of good tutorials that will walk you through the whole process.

Upgrade the two Hdds of HP Pavilion dv7-3190ev

I want to upgrade the two HDDs of 500GB in my HP Pavilion dv7-3190ev. What the maximum size of GBs that i can replace them , without any problem with power supply or any other problem in operation?...

Hi,
At this stage, 1TB is a good number for laptop HDD's. You may also need to update the BIOS. My dv7 actually has 2 HDD's (2 x 1TB).

Where would i get 2nd hdd cable for hp dv7-series (long cable) that would ship to finland.

Where would i get 2nd hdd cable for dv7 series (long one) THAT would ship to Finland. (as the subject says eh')

Hei:
It depends on where in the dv7 model series your PC falls.
There are 2 types of second HDD cables. The one Kamat pointed out for the dv7 6xxx series, and then there is this one at the link below for these dv7 series:
http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=345&zenid=b451f3afd6d86cd...
So, you will need to know what dv7 you have.
I believe they ship worldwide. A forum member from Italy got his from here. That is how I know about this site, and all about the fact that there are 2 types of 2nd HDD cables for dv7's.
The only part number referenced for a 2nd HDD cable in the service manual is for the dv7-6xxx series.

Pavilion dv7 - Can I add a second hard drive?

I have an HP Pavilion dv7 2173cl laptop. I've read that I can add a second internal hard drive. Is that correct? If so, what is the max size that it will take? Any special type that I should buy?
Thanks!
This question was solved.

Hi,
This model allows to use 2 HDD's. Max capacity is 500 GB.
To install second drive you will need Hard Drive Caddy and Cable Connector. You may buy them here.
Here is service documentation for your model. On page 46 you may check where you may install secondary hard drive.

Can't install any OS on SSD - DV7-6030ew

Hello,
I have Kingston SSDNow V SNV125 64GB (~4 years old) which had been running fine in my PC BOX. I have recently bought new SSD and decided to put old SSD into my DV7-6030ew laptop. So I took out HDD from NB and replaced it with Kingston SSD.
The problem is that I can't install any OS on this SSD. I tried:
XP - after "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" I got setup screen and after few seconds I got BSOD. I tried three different XP versions - always the same BSOD.
Win 7 - tried many times. System always installs successfully but then after random driver installation or Windows Update system doesn't boot. It freezes at windows splash screen or launches "System Recovery Options". I always install Intel Chipset driver and Intel MEI first. These two never killed the OS. OS gets killed later after GPU/Wi-Fi/Fingerprint/Other driver. Sometimes it happens that I setup all drivers but Windows Update kills OS. My last installation ended up with "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" during boot and now every restart it freezes at splash screen. I tried installing Intel Rapid Storage but it doesn't help.
Win 8 with Update 1 - always installs successfully and almost always I'm able to setup all drivers (even through Windows Update). It always dies after Windows Update (random KBxxxxx).
Ubuntu Linux - Installed successfully. Right after desktop showed up I restarted it (I didn't change anything) and I got "no such partition" error during boot.
I have bought HP Sata cable replacement on EBay and put the old HDD into the second bay and connected it through this cable. So I have SSD in first bay connect with original HP cable and HDD in second bay connected with replacement cable. I have created two new 40GB partitions on HDD and setup two new Windows installation on this HDD. Both installed successfully. No problem with drivers, windows update etc. I tried copying one of these good installations from HDD partition to SSD using "Paragon migrate OS to SSD". It went well but during boot -> splash screen -> "System Recovery Options". I also tried to copy it through Paragon Partition Manager from Hiren's Boot CD but during boot I got this screen.
Unfortunately the SSD is old and there is no firmware upgrade for it. NB has the newest F.1B bios installed.
Why I can't install anything on this SSD? Please help.
Regards
Rychu

Hey @RychuPL ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to use your SSD in your DV7 notebook.
Were both drives connected during the tests that you have run? If so please disconnect the secondary drive and test with only the SSD installed. It could be that the BIOS is picking up part of the Boot MGR from the original drive and attempting to boot from it in some way. Only thing that really makes sense to me at the moment.
Another "solution" (and I use the term very loosely in this case) is to install Windows 7 or 8 while offline and turn off the Windows updates to prevent the crash, or if it crashes after a specific update, to uninstall and block that specific update:
To do this follow these steps: (Windows 8)
1. Boot into safe mode: Windows Startup Settings (including safe mode)
2. Press Windows Key + X.
3. Click Programs and Features.
4. Click View Installed Updates on the left hand side.
5. Click on the Installed On heading to sort by date installed.
6. Click on the update that was recently installed.
7. Click Uninstall at the top.
8. After you've uninstalled the updates test the startup.
If it works, block the Windows updates that caused the issue: (Windows 8)
1. Press Windows Key + X.
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click System and Security.
4. Click Windows Update.
5. Click Check for updates to rescan for available updates.
6. Click on # important updates are available. Where # is the number of available updates.
7. Right click on the update and choose Hide update. If the update is not shown, click the Optional tab on the left.
If you use Windows 7 follow these steps to get into the update list:
1. Boot into safe mode: Start your computer in safe mode
2. Click Start.
3. Type Update in the search.
4. Click View installed updates.
5. Click on the Installed On heading to sort by date installed.
6. Click on the update that was recently installed.
7. Click Uninstall at the top.
8. After you've uninstalled the updates test the startup.
To block the updates in Windows 7:
1. Click Start.
2. Type Update in the search.
3. Click Windows Update.
4. Click Check for updates.
5. Click on # important updates are available. Where # is the number of available updates.
6. Right click on the update and choose Hide update. If the update is not shown, click the Optional tab on the left.
To be frank I really don't have any suggestions other than that considering you've tried multiple operating systems with identical results.
Hopefully removing the HDD allows the SSD to work. In which case formatting the drive or running KillDisk would be the best option.
Hopefully that helps!
