Can an HP pro 3010 accomodate 1TB hard drive

Solution
Perfectly safe.

You can take of the side to and look if you wish but looking at the picture it seems pretty certain it fits.

To ADD your drive you'll do THIS:

1. Mount drive with proper screws then attach the SATA power and data cables (may need to obtain a SATA cable).

2. Boot Windows.

3. Go into "Computer Management"-> "Disk Management" then find the new drive. Right-click to add NEW VOLUME.

4. Open Windows Explorer to see if the drive appears and attempt to create a folder and/or copy a file to it.

*In some cases the PC may fail to boot to Windows because it's trying to boot from the new drive. If so, go into the BIOS (DEL), then change it so the correct drive is again the FIRST bootable drive, save and reboot.
