Connect it to power and the data cable. (Probably SATA)
I have a Pavilion desktop running Windows 7.
4GB RAM,640GB HD.
Do I need a "RAID configuration to do this? So far info indicates that Win 7 will do this for an external drive. I wish to place a large hard drive (~1TB) in the expansion bay of my CPU, due to lack of 'desktop' space.
I don't know where to help.
Any recommendations and general specs would be appreciated.
