PCIE16 slots are longer than PCI slots. We could have cleared this up much faster with
make/model number of the desktop tower. The drive will probably have screws to hold in bay.
Kinda strange looking desktop and I've been inside a million of them but new crap every day
and I've been retired for quite a while.
I couldn't fill a 1 TB drive in the rest of what life I have left. Krazy.
Good luck.
It is a Medion MD8341
Your C partition, where Windows lives, is nearly full--only 1 percent free space. Not good.
Medion MD8341?
Is that what Belarc told you? Is "Medion" allegedly the brand name on the PC itself? Or does that refer to the motherboard?
If you have a Belarc report, it should provide considerable detail on your hardware, including the motherboard.
I searched "Medion MD8341" with Google and didn't have much luck.
Is this a Lenovo PC by any chance?

I thought it was the brand of pc you asked? Belarc did not tell me it is medion I knew that
The cooling focus is squarely on the CPU. A huge shroud sits atop the thin, active CPU cooler and funnels external air towards it from the punctured side panel. The cooler's fan spins at a leisurely pace and because this is the only fan in the system, it means that the system runs very quietly overall.
(I've never seen a PSU without a fan but what do I know.)
And there is room and slot for another drive in drive bay.
I better study up, AGAIN, on some of the latest stuff. Me and my acer aspire lappy do just fine.
Time goes by fast for older people like me and I can't believe how much price has dropped on SSDs.
I bought one couple years ago and it was only 120GB or 250GB but it cost well over $400. I sent it
back because I didn't see $400 worth of performance change other that a 5 second decrease boot up.
Here's a pic of the motherboard, an MSI MS-7616.
Apparently socket 1156, era circa 2010; uses DDR3 memory.
It's highly likely you can put another hard drive in it, but I can't find a clear picture of the interior of the case nor do I know exactly who made that case.
I'd never heard of Medion before---apparently they were purchased by Lenovo a few years back.
You can download the manual for the PC at this link. I looked at it, but it does not provide any details about the case or adding additional drives:

Worst case scenario----even if it won't accept another hard drive, you could replace that full 1 TB drive with a larger 2 TB drive.
You can't fit more than two hard drives in the case and you won't want to upgrade to anything more than a mid-range graphics card unless you also upgrade the power supply and get a new case. There won't be enough power to run a high-end graphics card, and there won't be sufficient space in the case to house a longer card and power supply.
But I don't know what your plan is but, YES, it will accept another hard drive.

Stereo Mix can be tricky on Windows 7.
Maybe you don't need another sound card for it. Maybe you do.
What exactly have you done to attempt to enable Stereo Mix?
Certain sound cards can add that capability, but many cannot. You need to be careful about which one you choose if you in fact cannot enable Stereo Mix with your existing setup.
A USB external sound card should work, for $30 or $40. That's what I used for a while until I changed to a motherboard that supported Stereo Mix directly from the built-in sound chip.
It is not on this PC at all. RIAA I think seeWhat exactly have you done to attempt to enable Stereo Mix?
The RIAA May Be Forcing Laptop Manufactuers to Disable Stereo Mix Recording
Correct I do not know what cards have itYou need to be careful about which one you choose if you in fact cannot enable Stereo Mix with your existing setup.
