Build a Computer Part VI: Installing Hard Disk and CD-Rom

[kakarrot22]

Press 9 and tell me what it sounds like!

[spulkagent47]

I have question. If I have hard drive can I add more RAMs to hard drive to get more hard drive? My computer has 4 Rams, so I can store 4 worth of files?

[BBQTeach]

@spulkagent47

You seem to be a bit confused... The hard drive is slow (relative to modern computers) so running programs off it would be to tiresome, RAM is much faster (but more expensive, and it loses data with out power). You might have a 250GB HD with say a MP3 song on it and 4GB of RAM. When you play the song a program would be loaded into the RAM from the HD it would then either stream the song straight off the hard-drive of load it into RAM for faster access.

[Gerbilgirlanssy]

Thank you so much for making this video! Now my cd-rom driver finally works! :D

[DuDePIoOoO]

press 7 to hear a funny thing!! :P

[randomness711]

LOL AGP CARD

[AslamTau]

Why doesn't everyone dislike him, if you press 1 he says 'Dislike' so he is asking for it.

[AslamTau]

Press 5 for epic DJ

[Sporkinator4]

He says everything is obvious.

[aravind1435]

thanks very much 

[funnyfootballs]

What is best a high Mhz or a low Mhz?

Like 1600Mhz or 800Mhz

THANKS!!!

[jokerizhere123]

haha "if it fits in the hole your good to go?" your going to be plugging it into every hole trying to get it to fit

[debonaire33]

Faceplate :D

[KieransWorld]

I think this computer might just be capable of running windows 3.1 :P

[ShittyMcshitstain]

@KieransWorld windows 3.1 or windows 3.11?

[KieransWorld]

Wow his case can run a raid 0+1 configuration!

[TheAngelAbandoned]

If you're building your own PC then you should know how to do this.It's the easiest part

[sciencefreak2402]

its hard to explain because every tower is different. So all he can say is, "push it in this area and you screw stuff...".

[jgsb111]

Slide it in and out and make sure you get it in the right spot. >.>

[honyetong]

don't understand of this tutorials

[maxcor3]

GUYS PLZ HELP ME I BOUGHT A NEW HARDDRIVE BUT WHEN I PLAY THE NEW HARD DISKS LAGGS LIKE HELL THE SOUND AND IMAGE

[nookie380]

if yu need this tutorial to set up a pc buy a complete one

not every case is the same and in his previous vids he forgot some imortant details like cooling paste ect

and he should explain more about sockets , agp pci , pci express cause if ppl just buy a prossesor a motherboard ... there gonna have some surprizes

[HansensUniverse]

this guy don't know shit about computers

[AllAroundBang]

That intro and outro is really annoying...

[OrbitaBrowser]

This case is kinda dumb because it is so complicated to install HDD: take that out, align it, screw it in, put it back... Even traditional cases when you just slide the HDD into the position and screw it in are better, but tool less is the best, just cllip it in, no screws...

[tomodaninja]

@OrbitaBrowser i agree with you in some sense but at the same time id hate to be a new guy building a computer and not being able to find out how to do it because everyone assumed that you bought a newer case lol.. keeping in mind this is an old video as well.

[ANormalGuy]

@OrbitaBrowser Its from 2007 :S

[grapes008]

omg, IDE, i dont think i have used an IDE HDD, maybe the odd IDE ODD. but nothing much, this vid has to be more than 2 years old compared to its uploaded time

[Hunter50006]

"There's only one video slot on a motherboard..." That's changed...

[asi97]

where is the video card?

[silverfearn]

my SSD dosent have any hole at the bottom of it

[Zenodilodon]

@silverfearn I was thinking, who uses bottom mounting holes anymore? seriously this tutorial is horrible. I read this and thought of someone drilling holes in the bottom of an SSD and started laughing.

[silverfearn]

@Zenodilodon im sure its been done, people like to get creative and spit out the bright light! sunshine!!!! its not a hole under my hard drive, i might as well shove the SSD up my arse and puke out mobo spacers just for the love of being a kiwi and supporting the all whites.......gooooo! Kiwis!!!!!

[Zenodilodon]

@silverfearn Everything has been done before, the good ideas are just the ones passed along by the ghetto riggers and then perfected by engineers. Now I'm lost on the kiwi part but you seem very supportive of them I admire dedication but as far as that I also require a small explanation lol, it's funny cause this is the only case that uses such an obscure HDD mounting style, as far as a generalized tutorial goes this case was not the way to go.

[Xextreem]

lol old school. Agp bord. Pata ide lol. How old is this.

[EnforcedProductions]

wow he needs some seriouse wire management

[albgk]

ugg.... IDE cables are so ugly for a case with cutout... invest in SATA!

[TheSilverSkylite]

its a bit vague. They have 'already taken care' of some things -_-

[wowhoes]

guys on the hard disk (i dont think he mentioned this) you use the screws that came with the HD not the case

[b4m1as]

hey guys i need some help here is the preblem... i have two hard disks in the first one wich is 250 gb i have vista and i the second one (500 gb) i have xp can anybody tell me how can i choose software when i open my pc

[daddydangerous20]

u mean how to choose OS right? wen u hav installed both os properly it should give u an option at boot time.if this is not workin, install vm ware software which allows u to boot one OS inside another one without restart.also u can try and set the jumpers on the hard disks, set one to multiple master and other to multiple slave

[222804425]

@b4m1as go to bios setting and choose the second ide drive and boot from that

[expertprogrammer]

His parts are all crapppppppppyyyy.

[HansensUniverse]

@expertprogrammer and he need some cable management practice it looks like shit 

[expertprogrammer]

@HansensUniverse Hes so fuckin stupid!

[MaxCheesy]

what are jumpers on the hard drive and the other drive, im new at building computers

[xrockeirox]

nice video, but i think u should be more organized. what a mess inside the computer!

[ROTFChannel4u]

crapy motherboard. i have gigabyte MB and it has more RAM slots than this one.

[duckpk10]

so?

[ROTFChannel4u]

i said i have better motherboard than the one from the vid, and BTW, they're even better with 6 RAM slots. just sayin. is that OKAY to you?

[baoender]

No, you didn't say you had a better one, you went straight to an insult and now you're acting indignant because someone has said they don't care.

[drummerkid1993]

This video is fro instructional purposes only and it was made in early 2007.

[yanozdeath]

nice video bro? it helps me a lot coz im studyin"" trouble shooting and assembly heheeh thanks bro?

[LeksServices]

Interesting case. Most cases I've seen don't have slide out HDD trays. We had to slide the drive in to the bay and screw it in place.

[twennytoomacchickens]

yo board has da agp slot that shit old

[kklasen]

He forgot the memory

[Icemain]

he must only have short term

[computergeek1994]

SATA

[leewatcher]

so what do newer computers usually have ide or sata?

[oli3659]

sata

[WhatTehFux]

SATA

[twennytoomacchickens]

thay was on ide mostly now its goin to sata an the cables aint so big. so yea now it sata

[Zikizikimund]

is SATA II cable connection the same as IDE?

I mean if i have to do something different with the cable when connecting motherboard to hdd

[Hambycomb]

Yes SATA is different to IDE. The cable connection and socket look like little L's. You plug them in the same was as IDE cables. The cable to power your Optical drive from your power supply might not fit into your Optical drive but it should come with a converter that plugs into another SATA like port on your drive.

[vfthb098]

Something weird is that he keeps saying drop it into place for every part, and some parts you just can't drop.

[Speedster159]

I need to upgrade my PSU cuz my 5V is going below 5V

[djtheextremegamerpro]

i have that gpu

[killer4oto98]

whats the audio cable used for and whats AGP is it like PCI-E or what ?

[Awesomo4003]

agp is an old port that was used specifically for gaming but now pci-e is much faster

[leerman22]

crap my computer's wire connectors look nothing like his, my graphics card needs to be connected directly to the power supply(ati 4770)

[bowflexor]

he also forgot to put the final power supply wire in the back....

[amazinglyamezed]

lol...he got the old one!

[bowflexor]

Does OEM drives comes with cables?

[12354573]

no lol. oem means only drive, no cords

[irulethe70s]

or just use 2/4 so you dont have to remove the other part

[lXlSnype]

Also, you would be using SATA Hard Drive. The power cables are not even long enough to get to the hard drive; I saw a power extension to the hard drive used here in the video. IDE is old but still cheap to use as a back up drive. Best way is to have a raptor HDD as you're OS drive and some 500 GIG drive SATA or ATA setup. What ever hope that helped. I'm board leave me alone.

[mkfk1]

Raptor drive, spin much faster then the standard 7500 rpm sata.

You would need more cooling and air flow inside the case.

Most people dont benefits from raptor drive. Not to mention it is really expensive.

[TheVincentLee]

I have 2 solid state 32GB Ocz drives in raid 0 those are expensive as hell.

[TheGreatStash1994]

HOLY SHIT!

[iphonereviewer3]

do you use it for gaming or ?

[jasper1881994]

update pci e is not new pci e 2.0 is now for graphic card

[Jammowns]

Yay, we're going back in time!

[jknutsenBF2]

PCI-E, Not PCI

[tomlatino69]

PCI-E 2.0 , not PCI-E :'D

[dickesproductions]

the hard drive is either really cheap or old cause its IDE

[Gert11233]

Maybe they can explain what is the best harddrive an cd rom etc. so people who havent build a pc earlier can "understand" wats the best for their pc

[ManDev94]

this tutorials need more details

[schubes08]

@ManDev94 No.. this is detailed for windows ME

[entyceit]

wheres the installation of the software and BiOS

[ikcti]

I don't think the BIOS has to be installed...

[Kalywonkas]

With modern computers the BIOS is incuded and installed on the motherboard already, you dont need to do it.

[brunzmeflugen]

oooh i have an ati radeon!

[Bradleydl]

IDE.

LOL!

[NuMb3r1PuNjAbI94]

i know right.

[stenchinator]

I could have used this last December when I bought my GeForce 9800 GTX. I rally had no idea how to do it, but I eventually figured out what all the cords did lol.

I ended up buying a new power supply, as my graphics card too up too much juice during GTA4 and crashed after 3 hours or so. It runs great now!

[icehawk96]

haha i spy a bald spot

[tigerdog100]

can you add more than one hard disk ???

[AirForce194]

Yes, you can have many.

[tigerdog100]

thank you i have 2 computers(towers) and im looking toward switching some of their stuff around any suggestions

[AirForce194]

Just make sure that if you still want both to load into the Operating System(Windows), that you don't move the hard drive that has the OS installed on it to another computer. But, if you want to move everything to one computer just disconnect the hard drive unscrew it and reconnect it in the other computer. You can do the same for the DVD drive and possible the RAM if they both have the same type of RAM.

[planefreak3]

do you like usaf? i see your user name

[AirForce194]

Yes, I do

[planefreak3]

cool, i want to fly the F-22, you?

[AirForce194]

Yeah same here. That plane is awesome.

[planefreak3]

cool

[Teamkilling4ever]

dude thats not true that a computer only holds one graphics card. Mine can hold three.

[ThinkMeDead]

Can Anyone Help Me, When I Connect My Hard Drive Up It Says "Could Not Find Operating System" Anyone Help Me?

[MXhm91]

you have to install the operating system ? I guess your a blond chick

[KieransWorld]

@MXhm91 don't be silly.................blonde chicks don't know what an os is ;D

[BrandonMiller9999]

lol what about the dvd-rom drive?!

[ferret6677]

not every computer has a tray that comes out.

[burberrydog]

there's only one video-slot on the motherboard! damn this is old!

[doomtomb3]

Terrible hardware

[mo4life123]

i guess because the vid is probably PROBably 13 years old lmao...its helpful for beginers I knew this since i was about 14

[MXhm91]

yeah like cases looked like that back in the 90's.... this video is from 2007

[xxluvrxxdeejxx]

good video

[sexyamy6218]

Its good that he's showing how to build a computer , but he's not using a ground mat or wearing a ground strap LOL , this could develop into a static problem later if he shocks any of the electronics.

[SEYT0520]

Not sure if it was mentioned already, but at 1:33 the comment says "One side of the IED slot..." instead of 'IDE'.

[eroksyoursocks]

LOL IDE!

[ch3303]

lol yhey using ide cables my computer from 1980 has them

[Bodraw333]

lol? CD-Rom not DVD??

[microchoc]

how do telephone boxes work

[bskrazy77]

lol @ the AGP video card

[Caesaro]

Yeah, it does. But what exactly does that mean, if a drive is a slave or master drive?

What should I set it too then?

[Fernoe]

the one with the OS installed on it should be master, the others should all be slave

[mrsone2000]

Yeah, he should have gotten an PCI-E card instead.

[Evolution8MR17]

this video is pretty old, and i'm guessing they were on a LOW budget, so i guess they didn't have a choice

[Caesaro]

What does he mean by setting the jumpers on the hard drive?

[sunshine59]

he's talking about the jumper that either makes the hard drive the master or slave drive. there is the same thing on the back of your optical drive too.

[Caesaro]

Could you perhaps elaborate a bit more, in layman terms? I've never built a computer before, and I don't know much tech talk :[

[sunshine59]

on the back of your hard drive there are a set of pins that don't connect to your IDE cable etc. these pins determine whether or not your drive will be the dominant drive. this jumper that is on these pins is pretty obvious and usually white. if you move the jumper's position you change the dominance of the drive itself. make more sense?

[lakerboy1028]

this only applies to hard drives or optical drives with pata or ide interfaces. if you buy hard drives or optical drives with serial ata interface (sata), you don't have to worry about jumpers at all.

[logical123]

sata ftw! :P

[hardy309]

omg this looks so easy but it will cost alot

[stupidrussian]

... it costs less if u build it yourself, u can cut the cost by at least a quarter less with the same performance as buying it prebuilt.

[worldlone]

so whats that about jumpers

[carrodecorrida005]

agp that's old

[undermybedis]

good video but outdated. agp and ide crap

[darpachief]

how do you install 2 hdd?

[meekoman25]

same way the you install 1

[TuPP3]

IED Hard drive and this is 2007 video?

I don't think that CD drive audio cable has an "obvious" place in motherboard, it looks as same as 5 other 2-5 pin slots, for case cables, usb, case speaker, case lights etc.

[yapjane]

tnx for the kwowledge sir!

[okm759]

HE IS RETARDED HE DIDNT IF PUT RAM IN IT

[FrostMan242]

Yea he did. Watch the other videos.

[Nikon05]

you're retarded because you didnt read the title which clearly states "Part VI: Installing Hard Disk and CD-Rom"

[JohnnyPeeBucket]

you fucking retard watch the other videos

[fordmoparguy]

watch the other videos you retarted person its says its video VI so wat do you think that means!?

[kosherplazmo]

Yer Retard -.- Fuck you?

[Etherone1]

SATA ftw

[briant2828]

he forgot the little screw that holds the video card to the case lol

[justlamb]

what does he mean when he says, set the jumpers?

[collapsedlondon]

hard drive has two ways to plug in, which are E-IDE and SATA. you have to set jumpers only for EIDE type hard drives.If you stop the video at 0:41, you'll see the shiny little rectangle. that's a jumper. Depending on your purpose of using the hard drive, you have to change the jumper - like master or slaves.

[collapsedlondon]

but now we usually use SATA type hard drives more frequently. This vid seems pretty old. just FYI

[k2zie]

i agree

[Havoc928]

ugh ribbon cables piss me off and they look ugly...SATA FTW

[dannysplace7]

Only 1 video card slot that is unless it is a SLI capabale Mobo.

[michaliskebab]

Buying a computer is shit. It will have over nine thousand programs using up all the memory.

[234566tgvb]

Plus remember to look at you power supply, to little and your machine will die of hunger, to much and you will use to much energy and increase your power bill in this age of high energy costs.

[tacoeater123456]

unless ur overclocking :D thats what u want

[234566tgvb]

Start talking about compatbilty of diffrent parts and how they interact with the motherboard, plus the benifits of diffrent parts and disavatages. Plus Keep in mind that you will need to look at the compoment if you wish to have the machine do diffrent things, e.g Games, watch tv, etc. Setting up the BIOS is important as well, plus you may need to resolve some problwems as well. Or just buy one ready to go cheaper than making one :).

[dna1101]

actually making is cheaper than buying

[234566tgvb]

Depends

[NoTaTtHiScHoOl]

wow, making a computer is so much cheaper, everyone knows this

[imanoakman]

"There are some jumpers on the back you have to set...but we've taken care of that...."

No! Talk about those!

[aopdjasldksa]

Most mother boards have fail proof male heads so you can never attach the ide cable incorrectly, unless you force it...

[Abhik262]

Is it me or can the green screen be seen at around 2:15?

[Generalvaldez]

it can be seen

[oregonmilitiaman]

no duh, look at the "computor screen" on the right. thats big.

[Tom672]

OBVIOUS. EVERYTHING IS OBVIOUS.

[GlaBurnzUrHouseAK47]

Can that video card play games

[maxmusavi]

i have 1 question, how do i know that my cd rom can burn cds or not plzz reply...

[buddiezever]

If it says on the box or on the drive CD-R or CD+R it burns CDs.

[mofohofo]

wat about video card???

[TheAcesniper]

i would never use a IDE use SATA they are better

[CrossBre3d]

With SATA does it matter if the cd-rom or hard drive is on master or slave?

[DarkRiku989]

doesn't mention the pain in the ass the software is or how to check for broken parts but makes it seem easy
