I do want to add a couple of hard drives to the system. The system I ordered has the 512 M.2 ssd and the 2TB interna and an optical drivel.
I do have a couple of 7200 rpm hd (one is 3.5' 1tb, the other is 2.5' 512 mb) that planned to use. Your reply to the previous question made me wonder if I could add additional drives or if I should cancel the order and get a more expandable system.
If I can add these drives, what cables, cages, etc shall I order? Thanks for your reply. I wound up talking to Dell Premium Support on another issue and asked about the extra drive.

They will have Dell tech support help me with the installation and I have been assured it will be under the same warranty as the 8910 is. I would assure yourself that is the case if you order one of their drives. If the drives you may add are not from Dell they are not covered. To avoid heartburn I would suggest you cancel your current order and order one that has an HD identical to the original installed before shipment. That way there can be no doubt that you are covered.

I went to add an older seagate 1TB HD which was immediately recognized by my computer. Then it disappeared, I cannot see it in my computer and cannot see in bios. Ive tried different cables as well as different SATA slots on Motherboard (s3 and s4) with no luck however when powered by my computer the drive is spinning. The drive is only a SATA 3 Gbps drive, would this be the issue or could there be a bios issue with the motherboard? This drive worked in my old desktop and I would like to move it.
