omfg FINALLY - a "how-to make" what you want... that doesn't begin with "go to buy" what you want. many thanks i still can't believe my luck. oh btw i'll be adapting this to make it an external usb drive. thanks again.
Bro, you nailed my interest!! I'm quite fascinated by computer architectures and stuffs like these to build my own equipments. Good job and keep the passion alive!
Thank you so much brilliant, this is exactly what i was searching. i think you are the only one who did this on youtube. i'm very interested to this kind of work, thanks again
this is insane. I'm using this so I don't have my 2.5 Inch HDD dangling in my PC case. But it got real crazy when I realized you were actually doing this in a laptop and not just using an old laptop HDD in your desktop.
I LIKE YOUR CREATIVITY I WISH IT WASNT SO FAST PACED THO. I HAVE ACCESS TO SO MUCH OLD COMPUTER PARTS SO I DONT LIKE TO BUY NEW IF I CAN MAKE OR MODIFY IT MYSELF. ONLY THING IM A NEWB, BUT IM LEARNING WATCHING ALL THESE VIDEOS THANKS KEEP UP HE GOOD WORK
That's a great idea! Even though I would just buy the mini sata to full sata adapter and use it directly to both save time and money. But still great video!
I can bypass a lot of these steps, since I have an SSD caddy from my old laptop (HP ProBook 6460b) and I’m trying to put it in my Lenovo ThinkPad L540, but the caddy is too thick. However, the interface board is the same, so I take that out of my caddy and (hopefully) it will mount in place where the optical drives current interface board is. 😊
took me two days to make my own like this but it was my first time ever to replace original parts by soldering wires for two different connectors and it works I even had some files left on it and everything showed up in the pc no problem but my only downside is that the pc shows that the hdd is bad and can fail
At First I thought I was watching a Tweaker mutilated computer parts. Since I turned on auto play. I get some interesting videos coming popping up. ome entertaining some not. I know you can buy the kit but I’m a try this way first. After watching it three times I wish you would slow your time laps. Wouldn’t care if it was longer video. GOOD VIDEO!!!!!
this helped me increase my storage by 500 gb drive all tho I have one free nvme spot but I also had an hdd drive laying around and decided to go for it
Nu functioneaza,nu recunoaste bios unitatea hdd,trebuie facuta o conversie! It does not work, it does not recognize the hdd drive bios, a conversion must be made!
can it be done with a sata adapter and connect the CD/DVD from a broken laptop? just to avoid or reduce work with soldering (I have no solder kit at the moment) and if not can you advise what kind of cable to buy? thanks
Hahaha you can do this if u have many broken laptop, so you can use the female adapter embeded from the sata data and power of the board.. and mod it to the dvdrom, if not muh better to buy the adapter because its to cheap
You know, Caddy is really cheap. This is more expensive as you have destroyed you dvd drive which is more expensive than the caddy and also you have wasted yours and our time.
My man basically created a HDD caddy outta scrap. Congrats for taking the time to look into the pinouts and wiring. Cheap and the planet loves you.
Sometimes people don't understand how hardworking and patient electronic engineers are.
Being one myself, I concur.
If there is ever a zombie apocalypse - I am going with this guy. We will need to build survival tech from scrap...

I think i should buy a caddy , that way my dvd drive is safe too
😂😂😂
Agreed bro👍
😂😂😂😂😂😂
True to that brother! And it will be cheaper than buying a dvd drive.

só faltou soldar o GND na transmissão dos DADOS ,mas se funcionou tá valendo

Please make laptop cd rom ide connection to sata hdd diagram.
Nice but why dont use a serial cable cut in half?
That's a great idea! Even though I would just buy the mini sata to full sata adapter and use it directly to both save time and money. But still great video!
This would be cheaper... It is liturally for free, if you have a old broken drive.
The alternative costs
It's an excellent video. I tried it and it works perfect . Thanks so much l, now my laptop is working with two disks
please make hp compacq c700 Cd Rom connector to sata hdd connector daigram.
holy moly this is very useful, but I'm quite scared of doing this
everyone is nervous their first time just relax

Yes bro

However, the interface board is the same, so I take that out of my caddy and (hopefully) it will mount in place where the optical drives current interface board is. 😊
but how to connect the laptop dvd drive to a desktop PC ? do you have the schematics ? thank you
moreover wire 18awg or higher? sorry I would have a try on this but of course I have not experience at all
Just up! What happened in the end?!
This is an engineering level
Drat this laptop optical drive lays out teh internal PCB in such a way to make it difficult to fit the HDD,
took me two days to make my own like this but it was my first time ever to replace original parts by soldering wires for two different connectors and it works I even had some files left on it and everything showed up in the pc no problem but my only downside is that the pc shows that the hdd is bad and can fail

Thanks for your praising comment! I'll keep your suggestions in mind for the upcoming videos!
Do caddy has an indicator light just like dvd drive?
interesting and certainly useful
Does this work if the connector in the mainboard is IDE and my HDD SATA?
Someone : i think i should buy a hdd/ssd caddy
no one
Engineer : I have a great idea
this helped me increase my storage by 500 gb drive all tho I have one free nvme spot but I also had an hdd drive laying around and decided to go for it
Nice work👍
Thanks!
Great job man!... Good music too..
Como fazer com a saída USB 2.0 ?
Here is real DIY. Bravo bravissima.
Did it on an Acer PC as well. Many of them are not much more than laptops.
Interesting, but i think i will use wires instead (desktop connectors)
for those who want to follow the steps with less speed, you can go to the settings of the player and slow down the speed as you desire
yes that is indeed how the speed button works... You can even make it faster! ...
Terima kasih banyak ,saya lagi butuh ini kebetulan anda membuat tutorial,izin saya telah download skemanya,tq bro,Gbu
Good job
thank you.
Thank you Brother you are the best 👌🏽💯
Thank bro. It’s work💯
lets see tou do it with a 50 pin JAE connector type lappy drive,that would be pretty impressive!!
Wow excellent for your video.....myself will pay 3 USD for Caddy tray
Thanks it worked
I wil try thx for the ideea
Goated video
why not just aim the hdd into dvd hole and push it into the connector isn't that faster ?
anyway many thanks for your efforts
connectors are different and the needed pins wont line up
Masterful
Bro I'll go with caddy
Nu functioneaza,nu recunoaste bios unitatea hdd,trebuie facuta o conversie! It does not work, it does not recognize the hdd drive bios, a conversion must be made!
why .. ?
thx man
It damaged my hdd💔💔💔
can it be done with a sata adapter and connect the CD/DVD from a broken laptop? just to avoid or reduce work with soldering (I have no solder kit at the moment) and if not can you advise what kind of cable to buy? thanks
Man, just get a caddy, these are too complicated, and if u want to use cd drive externally? , get a usb to slim sata (7+6 pin) cable
Unique solution, but maybe I bought a caddy
Ain't going through all that for a 10 dollar caddy
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine
let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
Between $6 and $9 on eBay you can get the Caddy without going through all of this.
Use SATA adaptor
Oh my god its to hard.. i liked your work and video... But compare to simple buy new 2 tb drive or buy new cady....
we should buy cady because wasting cd drive for just 200 to 300 rupees is worst
Wow!! It's so easy😂😂😂
Setelah melihat video ini saya putus kan membeli hdd caddy saja 😄😄😄
💖💖💖💖💖💖
I definitely buy a new caddy from market.. it is better buy an new one instead go to a mental hospital..
it's like $6 for a caddy on aliexpress, SO much easier than all this.
yea but if you are into this stuf ( soldering , repairing ) and you have some spare parts that you dont need why not build it?
@@Karicize super lazy lol
pain in the ass if u mess up when taking of power and data
I will prefer to buy a $5 good caddy .
This one well looks more complicated, this is not for newby, there's too many things that I don't understand, more possibly to fail 🤣🤣
Id just buy a caddy.
just get a fking caddy man, 5 bucks... 5
THING YOU MUST AVOID
Hahaha you can do this if u have many broken laptop, so you can use the female adapter embeded from the sata data and power of the board.. and mod it to the dvdrom, if not muh better to buy the adapter because its to cheap
pour 10 euro 24h de travail non non ton tuto il es pas fiable mon amie
or just buy a caddy😭
250 rs caddy
Caddy is just like 2 dollars lmao
No thanks I'll just buy caddy
i do not trust this video LMFAO

Yea better to buy a caddy

You know, Caddy is really cheap. This is more expensive as you have destroyed you dvd drive which is more expensive than the caddy and also you have wasted yours and our time.
