Many people have thought about assembling their own computers. Those who know nothing about computers are very envious of those who can install them by themselves. In order to satisfy everyone's desire, today I will introduce the installation of computer HDD. So what are the common methods of HDD installation? Let's take a look!
Before starting to install dual hard drives, users need to consider several issues. The first is whether there is enough space in the chassis because the accessories that can be installed on the chassis bracket are very limited. If you install dual optical drives or one optical drive and one burner, it is difficult to arrange space for the second hard drive. The second is whether the power supply is enough. If the power supply is insufficient when the computer is running, it will often cause the HDD head to continuously reset. This damage to the HDD is obvious, and the lack of long-term power supply power is also very detrimental to the normal operation of other computer accessories.
What are the common methods of HDD installation
When the HDD is shipped from the factory, it is generally set as the master disk by default, and the jumper is connected to the "Master" position. If you already have an HDD as the master disk on your computer, you should connect one as the slave disk. Then, you need to connect the jumper to the "Slave" position. The master-slave setting described above is the most common one, and sometimes there are special cases. If the user has two HDDs, jumper the cable according to the illustration on the HDD panel or reference manual.
After connecting the wires, you can use screws to fix the HDD to the chassis. Note that the side with the connection port is facing inward, and the other end is facing the chassis panel. Generally, the HDD panel is facing up, and the side with the circuit board is facing down. This step is a very simple operation.
HDD installation method
The HDD connection includes two power cables and data cables. There are similar gaps in the power connector. This design is to prevent the power plug from being inserted backward. As for the data cable, there are two kinds at present. The early data cable is a 40-pin 40-core cable, and since ATA/66, a 40-pin 80-core interface cable is used, as shown in the above figure. When connecting, generally insert one end of the red wire of the cable into the end marked with "1" on the data cable slot of the HDD, and insert the other end into the end marked with "1" on the IDE port of the motherboard. It doesn't matter if the data cable is plugged in reverse. If the hard drive doesn't turn when you turn it on (you can't hear the sound of the bootstrapping of the hard drive), it's mostly plugged-in reverse. Rotate it 180 degrees and insert it.
