    edision mini os twin and hdd please help

    Hi all, I have an edision mini os twin and I would like to install an internal hdd.... my problem is that I haven't got a clue on how to do it.... well I have opened my box and took some pictures and I do not see any cables with loose ends to attach my hhd. I have a used hhd that I would like to use from a computer that is not working anymore- 2.5" 5400rpm 500GB sata. To be honest I can't see much room in there and start to wonder if I can install an internal hdd in there. I can only see a slot with 4 pins available on the board..... So is it possible, and if yes, what cable should I buy? should I also buy some sort of support for the hdd? Please someone can point me in the right direction?

    They are not designed to take an internal HDD, just an external USB HDD

      this is one reason why I bought a vu duo and later bought my vu solo 2 (both can take an internal hdd although the latter only takes 2.5 inch laptop drives)

      the vast majority of boxes dont allow for the fitting of an internal hdd , hence your problem

      its one thing wishing you could do a task, quite another for it to be possible,

      so in your case, its not possible to fit the internal hdd drive which is why your pictures show no internal hdd cradle or sata or power cables or connections
