 a seafood dinner at Cooters
I would love to go to Cooters unfortunately my car won't make it over the bridge. We would have to push it over.
 
I see one connector loose.
The only thing I have is replacing HD but nothing about adding one.
 
P.S. Too bad you don't like Dons 

who said that ???
 
Mondays are Raw Oyster nites!!!!!
 

11-14 are your sata connectors, which one(s) are vacant???
 
your new hd should have come with a sata cable to plug from the drive into the mother board.
 
there should be a spare power connector inside the chassis
 
there is an open bay underneath the dvd drive, should be plastic mounting rails in there
 

mount the drive in the bay
plug in the sata and power connectors
boot up in F2 Bios mode, look for additional hd make sure its recognized
windowz computer management 
right click on computer icom on ur desktop
select manage
select disk management
you should see new drive

he did say his van wont make it across the bridge...

Yeah, he did say that......
In the old days, before giving someone a ride, they used to say: a$$, gas, or grass.......not sure if this applies nowadays.....or in your situ....

Unplug the computer from the electrical power first of all before working on the computer, and then touch the back so you do not have static electricity in you to make sure you will not wreck anything in the computer. The proper way to do that is to have a grounding strap hooked to the computer that has a finger attachment also on it, and you wrap that around you finger and hold it there because it is velco and sticks to itsself like a bandage.
 
If you are careful and make sure you touched like the back of your computer (not a board) on the metal part of the computer chassis, then you should be fine, unless you are moving around on carpet instead of standing still and causing yourself to pick up static electricity along the way (rubbing your feet perhaps on a carpet and so), and if you do not get a shock from your hand touching the back of the computer then you are okay, and if you do, then the static electricity you had in you will be dissipated when touching something metal (like the back of the computer that is not painted, but bare metal).
