    There is no problem with two hard disks on the computer. There are several hard disk ports on the computer motherboard, and several hard disks can be installed. You plug the hard disk with the system into the socket of SATA1, and plug it into the socket of SATA2 as the hard disk of the storage warehouse (in fact, as long as the hard disk with the system is plugged into the SATA1, you can plug it into the hard disk of the warehouse).

    Also, you go to a partitioning tool and divide the hard drive that is used as a warehouse.

    Compatible It doesn't affect Open the case and plug it in to use It can be used except for the system disk of the original hard disk can not be moved, everything else can be moved.

    If the manufacturer does not provide additional hard disk space (generally only a few high-end laptops will have), if you install dual hard disks, you can only remove the optical drive, buy an optical drive hard disk bay, and go to **search for "optical drive hard disk bay", I'm using Jiayi's, it's good.

    The hard drive is fine, just check if the interface is compatible.

    This is not a notebook. Just plug it in. No impact!

    It's all the same interface, and there will be no incompatibility problems.

    1. First of all, press Win R to open the "Run" window, type: diskmgm msc. After typing, click OK.

    2. After opening "Disk Management", you can expand the source hard disk. If you don't see an Unallocated partition, you can't create and expand partitions.

    3. Right-click the partition you want to expand, and click "Extend Volume" after the pop-up menu.

    4. Volume Wizard pops up and clicks Next.

    5. Enter the amount of space you want to add or remove in the "Select Space Amount" box (in this case, the data is calculated in MB) and click "Next".

    6. Click "OK" to finish.

    Buy a case and make it into a portable hard drive.

    You can use a single cable to connect the main hard drive to the slave disk and the motherboard.

    The principle of attaching dual hard disks to hard disks: there are two rectangular slots of the same size on the general computer motherboard, one with a hard disk and the other with an optical drive.

    You can use a single cable (the kind of wide cable that has three slots on it to connect the hard drive to the motherboard, which is very common) plugged into the main hard drive at one end, the slave disk at the other end, and one can be plugged into the motherboard.

    First, open the case side bezel where the hard drive is installed.

    Second, then find the hard disk data cable on the motherboard.

    3. Plug in the source line of the hard disk power width, pay attention to electricity safety during operation, and keep your hands dry when working.

    4. Install the second hard disk on the hard disk holder of the box.

    5. Finally, install the fixing screws to complete the installation of the dual hard disks.

    Yes, but to consider whether the hard drive is compatible, I recommend that you use Seagate's hard drive, the compatibility will be better, go to their official website to choose more reliable, you can go and see.

    This motherboard has 1 IDE and 4 SATA ports, which can be connected to 2 IDE HDDs with 4 SATA HDDs. SATA hard disk can be used by plugging in the power supply and cable, IDE two can be hung on a cable, set up a master disk and a slave disk, and then connect the power supply to use. If you want to set the boot order in the BIOS for multiple hard disks of a computer, you can select the system disk first.

    Multiple hard drives have no effect on the system. Install the hard disk yourself can be solved in ten minutes, if you invite someone, everyone's charge is different, there is really no way to judge.

    You also have to consider how much per g of hard disk you buy now, that is, cost performance.

    It should be difficult to buy 160g now, and it is estimated that it starts at 320g.

    The current hard drives are all SATA, and most of the IDEs are second-hand, refurbished, and so on.

    You board one IDE two SATA. If you're using an IDE for your current hard drive, it should work well with SATA for your new hard drive.

    After looking at your question, it should be that both hard disks have systems installed in them.

    The two hard disks can be connected casually, generally plugged into the 0 and 1 numbers, and after the finish, go into the BIOS and set the first boot hard disk.

    The suggestion is to make the system on the SSD, and a separate partition for each disk will do.

    HDDs are used as storage disks and can be divided into several zones.

    After making sure that the power cord is also plugged in, reboot it to enter the hard disk detection, which should be detected.

    Furthermore, set which disk to enter the system from, maybe your old hard drive also has an operating system.

    The interface number is generally 1-6, and there seems to be no 0.

    Connect the solid state to 1 and the mechanical connection to 2.

    Set the solid state to the first boot disk in the BIOS.

    No, the current 500G hard disk is all SATA interface, no additional settings are required.

    Disassemble the case, install a new hard drive, connect the motherboard with a SATA cable, and you're done.

    The "unallocated" below is the newly installed hard drive. Right-click on the new hard drive and partition it according to your needs.

    At present, the computers are all SATA interfaces, and it is very easy to realize dual hard disks, just buy two hard disks and plug them into the motherboard.

    The old-fashioned hard disk that uses the IDE interface, the realization of dual hard disks requires jumpers, and the IDE hard disk is too old.

    The motherboard with IED interface implements dual hard disks, usually connecting the new hard disk with better performance to the first IDE data line, setting it as the main disk, and acting as the boot hard disk. As for the old hard drive, there are several ways to connect it:

    1 If two hard disks are connected to the same hard disk data cable, the second hard disk should be set as a slave disk.

    2. The second hard disk is connected to the second IDE interface, if there is only one hard disk on the data line of the interface, and there is no optical drive, then the second hard disk does not need to jumper; If there is also an optical drive attached to this cable, it is up to you to set one of the second hard disk and optical drive as the master disk and the other as the slave disk.
