The old hard disk is connected to the new motherboard, and the hard disk of the old host is connecte

As you said, the old hard disk is the IDE parallel port, and the new computer's hard disk is SATA serial port.

There is no problem with connecting the old hard disk with the interface of the optical drive.

But beware:

1. Shut down the hard disk when you unplug it.

2. Turn off the RAID option in the motherboard's BIOS settings.

3. In the BIOS settings, select the new hard disk for First Boot, that is, the serial hard disk of the new computer.

4. After booting up, enter the system, double-click my computer, if you can't see the old hard disk, enter the system, right-click the My Computer icon, select "Manage", select "Disk Management", and then activate MAXTOR 160G. You can see the old hard drive.

Next, it's the same as the use of a USB flash drive.

It doesn't matter if you have a system in your old hard drive.

If your new computer is a new hard drive, you don't need to turn on RAID (RAID is a disk matrix management program that must be turned off when only one hard disk is working).

If the 160GB hard disk is an IDE interface, connect it to the IDE2 port on the motherboard, and do not connect it to the existing new hard disk (if it is an IDE interface). This method does not require the need to set up a hard disk jumper.

If the new hard drive is serial, then it will be easy to do, and each of them will be connected to the motherboard, no matter what interface the old hard drive is. There is no need to set up the motherboard, because there are generally two types of hard disks by default, and you can see two hard disks when you turn them on.

2.Hook up two hard drives (or SSDs) on the same host; Laptops can be mounted using a portable hard drive enclosure or take advantage of a free disc location.

3. Insert the boot PEU disk into the computer, press the F12 key when booting up, bring up the boot options, and select the USB flash drive to boot.

4. In the PE boot menu, select a startup item, we select the first item in this example, if your computer is too old, select PEWINDOWS2003 compatible version.

5. After entering the PE system, open the image president.

6. Click the hard disk clone button at the bottom left, and select a source disk (old hard disk) and a target disk (new hard disk) in the pop-up window. After selecting the source disk and the target disk, click the execute button, wait for the execution to be completed, shut down, remove the old hard disk, and reboot the original system and application software to the new hard disk.

Let's determine the interface first, if the old hard disk is the kind of IDE that is wide, the new computer does not have this interface, then buy a mobile hard disk enclosure, connect to the new computer to use it, if the interface is an interface with your computer, then find the same cable to connect it.

The new computer has an IDE interface and does not. Generally, there is one, if there is, you open the case, use an IDE cable to connect the old hard disk to the new computer, and the old hard disk and drive letter will appear when you turn it on, and you can open it to copy data.

If you pull a new computer without an IDE interface, then you can only buy a portable hard drive enclosure to connect it to a portable hard drive.

This needs to be set up by the computer from the CMOS, and the hardware and software can be used! Restart: Press the prompts to enter the CMOS to select the settings.

Hehe, I didn't plug in the power cord of the hard drive.

Add the data cable, and plug in 2 cables.

What kind of hard drive are you?

Look at your problem, know that your old hard disk is IDE interface, your new computer's motherboard does not have an IDE interface, if you really want to use your long-term hard drive, you can buy an IDE SATA conversion card, if you want to make your old hard disk into a portable hard disk, you need to buy an IDE portable disk box, and if it is inch, because your old hard disk is an inch disk.

But you can't get it yourself, this is to convert the interface, you can get it there when you repair the computer, but if it's too old hard drive, it's not very big, there's no need to get a new hard drive, and it's not much money right now.

Do you want to plug it in the main chassis and turn him into a secondary IDE

Summary. There are many reasons why the computer cannot boot, if you change the hard disk interface from the first to the third, it may be that there is a boot sequence problem, causing the computer to not boot normally. First of all, the boot sequence refers to the process of computer booting, it will find which hard disk program can be loaded, so as to perform the system boot more conveniently.

In general, the computer will prioritize loading programs from the hard disk, which can make the computer boot up faster. If the interface of the hard disk is changed from the first to the third, then the computer will not be able to recognize the hard disk correctly, and the programs on the hard disk will not be able to be loaded correctly, resulting in the computer not booting normally. In addition, changing the hard drive from the first port to the third port may also cause problems with the hard drive recognition, which will cause the hard disk to read slower and also affect the computer's boot speed.

Therefore, when changing the interface of the hard disk from the first to the third, it is important to ensure that the boot sequence is correct and that the hard disk is correctly recognized to ensure that the computer can boot normally.

How to fix it. Just change it back.

The interface is broken and can't be used.

That can only be repaired.,Two interfaces, one is the boot disk interface,One is for expanding memory.。

The two interfaces are not the same.

As you said, the old hard disk is the IDE parallel port, and the new computer's hard disk is SATA serial port.

There is no problem with connecting the old hard disk with the interface of the optical drive.

But beware:

1. Shut down the hard disk when you unplug it.

2. Turn off the RAID option in the motherboard's BIOS settings.

3. In BIOS settings, first

boot (the first drive disk) selects the new hard disk, that is, the serial hard disk of the new computer.

4. After booting up, enter the system, double-click my computer, if you can't see the old hard disk, enter the system, right-click the My Computer icon, select "Manage", select "Disk Management", and then activate Maxtor

160g。You can see the old hard drive.

Next, it's the same as the use of a USB flash drive.

It doesn't matter if you have a system in your old hard drive.

If your new computer is a new hard disk, you don't need to open RAID (RAID is a disk matrix management program, and when only one hard disk is working, you must close the program).
