Post subject:  Adding a secondary SATA HDD
I have one 60gb SATA drive on my DELL Dimension C521.


I want to add another hard drive.

This one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6822136075

And i'm gonna use this cable: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6812106201

I think I might need a power cable too because theres no spare ones that are like the one connected to my current drive.
So I'll get this to split one of my free connectors: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6812119010

This is what I currently have:

The blue cable goes to my hard drive, and the orange one goes to my cd drive.




Soo, could someone give me the steps on how I need to install it.



Thx :)

First, check if you have a free space to put the hard drive
Second check if you have a place to put the Sata cable (slot)
Third Check if you have a free power cable for it
Fourth just connect everything (lewl)

I have 1 disk running sata and i used to that were IDE, now its just one.
