Thanks man - this video helped me to identify why the extra storage drive (that was installed by the company who did my custom PC build) was not showing up for me. Turns out the SATA power cord to the hard drive was a loose connection (so much for quality assurance). I took it out and plugged it back in correctly and firmly, then it shows up for the first time and is in working order.

[@frankenstein3163]

can a 3.5 be installed to a lap top or is the connection under powered due to its meant for a 2.5 drive ?

[@Colesefff]

Honestly for a laptop I’d go with an external HDD. They’re more expensive but they’ll usually have a better processor and you won’t run the risk of losing the data when you unplug.

[@frankenstein3163]

@@Colesefff I only ask because I heard the power blocks that external uses go bad and are badly rated for the hdd causing them to fail/corrupts data sooner. I have gone thrue a lot of them from finless to fan cases. Or I'm just unlucky and are surrounded by emp's(most likely) I'm thinking I'll just tap into the power of the laptops cd/dvd port for the 12v. I don't care about cosmetics as the laptop will be used as a media server for bead room.

[@Solaire-wf3vb]

If you don't have the power cable where do you plug it in on your motherboard? Great vid btw

[@Colesefff]

03:50 if you pause it here look at the motherboard and I believe it’s on of the ports on the bottom row of the motherboard. There are most likely multiple ports that look the same and should say “SATA” near the port.

Mine doesnt appear on my pc, I have an Omen 25L. Apparently ive been having it connected forever just to find out its not even being used. So yeah here i am on this video trying to figure out how to do this because im at the part on 8:55 where hes able to see an extra disk. All i see on my end is my 2 basic ones i have which dont have much space on them so im adding the 2tb barracuda on mine

[@Colesefff]

Could be a bad HDD or the cables are not connected all the way. Power down your PC and check the power connection cable going into the motherboardBoard and check it going into the HDD. 99% of the time the issue is the cable isn’t connected all the way. If they are then you’re right just get a new HDD because most likely you got a bad one.

[@jadonperez2907]

Thank you, this video helped. One quick question tho! The data power cord is plugged into the hard drive. But where does the other end go into? Does it go into anything like the power supply? Or anything?

[@Colesefff]

The other end should go into the motherboard as well there should be a SATA power port near the SATA data port

[@markoivanisevic2872]

very helpful

[@Colesefff]

Thank you for the awesome comment ❤️

[@TruthSeekerAll]

Hi, when you slide the HDD into it's bay at the bottom of the case, it doesn't need to be secured with screws to its sides? I have the same type of case and I'm confused if I should secure it with screws or not. If yes, how do I secure it? I prefer just to slide it in and leave it like that. But is that the safe way? Can I just slide it in and leave it like that? Thanks for your help.

[@Colesefff]

You should be able to leave it there, there are lips in the bay that will prevent it from falling down and once you slide the cover on it shouldn’t be able to move around too much. Just be careful if you’re moving your PC

[@Colesefff]

Most likely it’s internet. 1GB HDD’s usually have a decent processor and shouldn’t have a noticeable latency. Your best bet it to plug an Ethernet cable directly into your pc and play a few games and see if you’re still getting the lag. If not, it’s a network issue.

Luckily enough it just came standard! Actually a few of my friends have bought the same HDD but have different PC’s and they all have an additional hard drive bay as well as the available SATA power cord underneath in the same location so I think most PC’s should come standard with that space available

Awesome you’re going to love it! There should be a link in the description of my video for the Barracuda hard drive. It’s only about $50 and has a decent processing speed for 2TB which should be enough for all of your games. My advice would be to install any FPS games like COD or Fortnite or fast paced games on your SSD or Local Drive so there’s less latency

So i have a 2tb barracuda 7200 hard drive. It was installed in my ps4 for extra storage cause you know, 500gb is not enough😂. I recently built a pc and now i wanna install it there. I know I still have games stored on the harddrive but if i were to format it on my pc, it will erase everything correct?

[@Colesefff]

I know 500GB is never enough! Unfortunately yes formatting your HDD to your PC will most likely delete everything currently on your hard drive and make it unrecoverable especially if you don’t use the “quick” format option.

[@Colesefff]

But good news is the 2TB Barracudas are relatively inexpensive so it may be worth looking into getting a new one if you don’t want to lose your old save data!

So I've watched a bunch of other videos and then I went to various websites for more detailed instructions. In particular, the guide on WikiHow added an extra step of grounding yourself, something none of the videos I've watched ever mentioned. Is grounding yourself still necessary or do modern PC equipments no longer require doing so ?

[@Colesefff]

As long as your PC is turned off and unplugged, there shouldn’t be a reason to ground yourself but I’d defer to your instruction manual for more information on that.

[@CrypticLemonade]

Wondering if I could get someone’s input… I’m new to pc but recently bought a Cyberpowerpc i5 - 11400f RTX 3050(?) idk what else to call it, but I’m getting it next week, it comes with 500gb of storage but I’d like to add more… I keep seeing barracuda or iron wolf?? What brand would be best? I’d be using it for gaming! Thanks!!

[@Colesefff]

Sea gate Barracuda works great. 2 TB storage at 7200 RPM works wonderfully for me, I have multiple games on it and haven’t noticed any latency. If you are worried about latency, sea gate makes a 1TB “Firecude” which is HDD but also has a solid state drive (SSD) which allows you to retrieve your most used items quicker.

[@Colesefff]

Is it only recognizing your Disk 1 and nothing else? Could be a few things, check the connections to the Hard Drive via the SATA data and the SATA power cables first. If both are in correctly and you heard the click in for both and they are both plugged into the motherboard on the opposite ends, it could be a cable issue where you may need to get new cables. Last option may be a faulty Hard Drive and returning for a new one might be a good last option. I'd first just check everything to make sure all ports are secure into the Hard Drive and Motherboard.
