my question is can i add beside my hdd another hdd like this one: http://www.pcfun.ro/hard-disk-uri/hgst/1tb-sata-ii-7200-rpm-32mb-deskstar-7k1000c/ 

or 
a ssd like this one http://www.emag.ro/solid-state-drive-ssd-corsair-nova-series-2-2-5-60gb-sata2-cssd-v60gb2a/pd/e73ktbbbm/
 or like this one: http://www.emag.ro/solid-state-drive-ssd-samsung-840-series-2-5-120gb-sata-iii-mz-7td120bw/pd/eth4kbbbm/

thanks.
yes you add second as a slave drive, boot from one that has os, second has data. access thru my computer for second one.
following cards have been verified

sta… highly unlikely.
unless there is a specific bios update that adds this functionality, it will not work.

and there does not appear to be:

just put in a sata iii ssd, 2.5" format. that will work, and on a board that old, you'll not see any actual performance difference vs an nvme drive. Hello Nanda, Basically you need to include the network drivers and the storage drivers.

+ You can find the drivers from Manufacturer site where you can filter the Category and download –

Like this – <https://snipboard.io/bQt5ER.jpg> Hi Ohforf,

We understand your SSD stopped responding sometimes and after a power cycle, it starts to work again.

 

For this situation, we do recommend to you the following <https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25348> firmware version link to install to the SSD and fix this situation. For this update, you need to create either a USB thumb drive or a CD, once you run it and install it, please let us know if the issue was resolved.

Regards,

pretty much all of them support fat-32. windows arbitrarily doesn't give an option to use fat-32 when formatting drives / partitions greater than 32gb capacity. microsoft/windows is really just trying to force their proprietary ntfs file system on you, even in situations where fat-32 would work fine. the actual partition size limit of fat-32 is 2tb (2,048 gb), which a third-party formatting utility can do just fine. so that means you'd still basically need to make multiple partitions to use all the capacity of your drive and have a file system that the tv can read. it's possible some tvs may be confused by that, but most would handle it fine.

exfat extends the established fat file system to overcome some of its inherent limitations. for a drive with this capacity, exfat is probably the best file system to use if you want to use the drive with your tv and other non-windows devices. among non-windows devices, it has much better support than ntfs. you can make a single large 8tb partition formatted with the exfat file system and it's very likely your tv will be able to use it. if your tv doesn't work with that, make a 2tb partition and format it with the fat-32 file system. just normal use may be a bit of light to mid gaming and small projects with photoshop i also want to try and work with adobe video editors i'm a student after all

honestly, all of these laptops are really just designed for web browsing and office. none of them are going to be able to play current aaa games. some indie games, but not current high end games. 

i would go with this one:

hp i5-7200u 8gb ddr4 1tb amd radeon r7 m440 4gb ddr3 760.52 usd

mainly, they are all about the same and it is cheaper. but this one has enough ram and dedicated gpu to do some light gaming. the 7500u model just has a higher clock cpu, it is not worth an extra $120. it is a dual core cpu, so video editing will be a challenge.

the 8250u is a 4 core/8 thread cpu. but with integrated graphics and 4gb of ram, those will be your bottlnecks in most cases. the extra threads will help with video editing, over the other cpus, but you may have issues due to limited ram. how about antec ne550m?


for many pcs, yes. for one in which you invested in a modern ryzen platform and a 2060? no.

you're cutting corners in the wrong place. for these specs, tier b on our housed psu tier list is the minimum i'd be comfortable with. it's really weird to pay extra to go from a 3600 to a 3600x -- or as steve burke noted in his review, you're paying $50 for a letter -- and then use an old, group-regulated psu.

https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/psu-tier-list-psucultists.3624094/ no, that type of processor is soldered to the motherboard. it can never be replaced. searching for [nagios graphics card](https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=alekk01og-pwbfooqixifscmfpjltwkfzw:1614931551149&ei=x-zbyizncjmyjlsptq-2ka&q=nagios+graphics+card&oq=nagios+graphics+card&gs_lcp=cgdnd3mtd2l6eam6bwgjeladecdq-bebwpmxawc8swfoanaaeacaawmiababkgedms4xmaeaoaebqgehz3dzlxdpesgbacabaq&sclient=gws-wiz&ved=0ahukewjm-mtr2jjvahuzdgmbhbaxdquq4dudca0&uact=5) got me some:
