HP Pavilion 590-p0026nb
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

This PC has one SSD disk (M2) and one DVDRW powered by a SATA Slimline connector (6 pins).

I would add a HDD but there isn't other power connector. And I don't find a Y cable for SLIMLINE Sata.

Can you help me ?

@Indianajohn007,

 

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

 

Your HP Pavilion 590-p0026nb (4MH96EA) as fitted with a Lincs motherboard (SSID: 843B) has three SATA data connectors: one white connector labelled "ODD1" which is the dedicated optical drive connector, and two SATA data drives connectors (dark blue and light blue), labelled "HDD1" and "HDD2" which can be used for SSDs or HDDs:

If you are missing a SATA data cable, you can purchase one of these cables online, such as these purchase examples via Amazon-Belgium: with an angled connector: LINDY 33351 0.5m Internal SATA 7 Pin to 90° Cable - Red : Amazon.com.be: Electronics, or with straight connectors: LINDY 33323 SATA II Internal Cable 0.2 m : Amazon.com.be: Electronics.

 

If you need one or more SATA power cables, look no further than these Amazon-Belgium SATA power splitter cable purchase options: PremiumCord Power Splitter SATA to Hard Drive 4 x SATA Power Supply for Hard Drives, SSD, CD/DVD Rec..., or if you need just one additional SATA power cable connection: StarTech.com SATA to 2x SATA Power Y Splitter Cable with Lock - 15cm (PYO2LSATA) : Amazon.com.be: El....

 

This should solve your problem.

 

Kind Regards,
