| Solution to single Hard Drive hopelessness (Part 1) | |
Part 1: I think of the single hard drive computer as a totally ridiculous idea (apart from laptops which are used as second computers). If you have 50,000 pictures and let's say every interesting piece of TV or video footage you have ever saved as well as all your e-mails and computer data to date - you can't risk losing it all (it would be a total disaster). The solution is very simple. You get two removable hard drive bays (£6 each from www.cclcomputers.biz excluding carriage) plus an 80 gigabyte hard drive (say Maxtor) at £37. All you then have to do is remove the 40 wire hard drive lead connector from the back of your present hard drive along with your hard drive's power plug. Remove your hard drive. Place the two hard drive bays in vacant slots and connect up the hard drive connectors to the back (your hard drive lead will have three connector plugs, one of which will be attached to the motherboard) also connect the the power plugs
