[QUOTE="rajan, post: 54250, member: 118"] Hello... Its the same like how you maintain any machine.... Maintenance cames into pictures. I have Hard Drives which can last me 5 years and still kicking...You prefer nowadays bigger capacity and its cheap as well . Maintenance on Defragmentation will be good every 2 months if you are doing heavy file storage. However one other thing you can do to reduce track reading time is to do calibration. Tools such as Norton Disk Doctor helps. However the other thing you must bear in mine is the Vibration/handling of the disk. Try to minimise impact. Some Notebook cames with Impact protections. Ya... and try not to do "hard" shutdown ! its tends to create bad sector in long run... Oh yeah.. like what Jarance and soorian said..... backup la bro...storage devices are cheap now.... get yourself a CDR/W drive or even a DVD/RW, its the cheapest backup solution you can have..... One more thing... the lesson I learnt... When my notebook was stolen, that "parker" stole my backup USB harddisk as well..... So... put it in a different place !!!!! :cry: Cheers :wink: [/QUOTE]
