Examines the five key points, when shopping for external hard drives
Buy an external hard drive is not based on today, but if you look at the comments of customers who are frustrated, sites like Amazon, it seems that even more customers. There are several ways to determine if the purchase value of the product, long before thinking about wasting money on them. There is a problem, it is also easier than ever to sell a product, which is also exceptionally good, half hidden in the tree, ever consider buying it fired first. This article presents the five key points to consider when looking for external hard drives so that you can not find meaning find buyers remorse afterwards.
Every first hard disk is not somewhere on the road
This is the truth of these two, of course, internal and external hard drives. Method of hard drives has been built at this time is working days. Since the CD (the disc media within the device that stores data in fact), and
"head (a mechanical device to adjust and read the data and the physical structure of the matrix) are the moving parts to wear through. This is normal and should not cause problems if they are known in advance, and given the reliability from the beginning. so that all devices are bound to fail one day is different big brands and the product is usually the time to do so.
Not only the sale of the second model
In particular, external hard drives, in fact, is rarely a real killer feature of the product and another product does not work. Although the software provides great sound and a key backup can be very interesting for you, on paper, that these things are really much better, it's worth, in real life. At first glance, the possibilities are far from limited, but on the contrary, there are dozens of construction products and multiple connections, and is the most difficult decision that these amounts would be found. There are some simple requirements for this study, eliminating competitors, but it's hard to find (and other, mostly) as a producer or advertising pages. In ascending order of importance are
The first sound
Another customer service quality
The third error frequency / probability
Fourth Guarantee
If they sleep in the same room where the computer and download the file to disk during the night together, the "noise" comparable to guarantee (which is always right and is not important.)
Not that the main features:
Software included for the first time in
Second performance (with the exception the rule of law shows very poor performance is always a lot of the tsunami, but it happens very rarely)
Third One-Button "is
Why not these other criteria? Well, if you buy an external hard drive to play an important role, which should be in place and maintain the files, right? How do you know if they believe that the product meets? Since the duration of the warranty the company offers.
Some years ago, the company estimates that more than a portfolio of business products seamlessly. They should, as the price of the product so that the actual number of cases of guarantee for the future (and their costs Were calculated as the time, parts, spare parts, etc.) account.
Not for a moment that you have a company that sells these products to be taken. If you have five years of warranty you think you can keep half the time that occurs within two years, which doubled or tripled their prices, which is designed for long life. If you do not have a lot of awards, accidents, roads.
Therefore, you should always try to ensure the long (3-5 years) and to "respect" for customers (bug, but the "customer" good today only That means clustering, two hours and you can phone someone who speaks English and directs how the product will be returned when you - all that can wait.)
The third does not buy anything based solely on excellence, professional
career counseling (eg feedback from a computer and storage sites) are included in all cases, a good start for some of the contributions were made long before most other clients do not know.
But the catch is: I can tell you a skill that external drives should not be treated as the purchase (since the problems worse, a product plan that is completely excessive, etc.). It is not vice versa - just because the product is a good test of classification does not want to buy safely. Journalists and newspapers have limited material resources to the direction of each outdoor unit is a penny to measure reliably.
His fancy new external hard drives can be beautiful and perform exceptionally well, but when choosing a flow of waste (just do a quick search on "click of death" on Wikipedia), two months after the factory warranty for a year. As already mentioned, hard drives are doomed to fail. But, as always, some having to do any work for a long time, and only guests professional can not know which one of them is an important product.
if the product is worth buying or not, always take into account the views of users. They know that if the product, which is more than worth the money that can be bad or very, very soon. A good starting point because it is http://www.tigerdirect.com http://www.amazon.com and many others.
Fourth Reactions of buyers is not the Holy Grail - for each product brand and its fans and foes
Getting Started - Tips for Buyers can * be a good indicator of their purchase, if more than a handful of each product (this is just a number, but said that the change from 1980 to 1910, before I needed personally, that serious ).
When buyers see the comments, is a grave mistake that most people - no time to read, write the text.
If you have a product that most negative comments (IE1 or two stars) is the first thing I see is to evaluate low score of the auditor. Executives, most people give, or one tenth of them have in mind a particular problem for all potential customers, so if (and continues to be very optimistic.)
The proof of this number of external hard drives, backup and synchronization. And, if possible, the computer user is looking for a little more space for the files to another buyer that the product is manufactured has been tested, tried a solution to automatically back up important files.
Well, except that the researcher believes that the software does not work on Mac, but can also give the product a negative evaluation. This applies to you, as owner of the computer, which requires only a bit 'more space for files?
In general, if you do not buy a Mac in the near future, you can ignore almost completely negative reactions. It 'clear that many of the comments * are motivated and organized, not knowing the quality of the product, seeing many points of star classification.
Fifth The most obvious option is rarely the best
The old saying, do not know, but especially in external hard drives. Most external hard drives on the market continues to internal factors. What?
Well, it's fun so-called "box" that allows the normal package 3.5-inch internal hard disk, and then connects to the PC via USB, Firewire, or other similar means. They are largely unknown, because the simple fact that they are difficult to sell (it's like, "Why advertise two different products that you are alone, if only to sell out the environment?"). In fact, it is more convenient, easy to install (if you have a screwdriver and continue to breathe, though most can go wrong, it's so simple) is a much more reliable alternatives. This is because you can decide what to do, and not live in the manufacturer's choice of this site (and this is just a "unit cost" of the mind).
Let me start about $ 20 apiece.
(6 other suggestions)
Read # 1 again. Read carefully. It is already, but the only conclusion I can be your most important files do not bring back related. If you really wan't to ensure value for the whole family photos, videos, music and all this is really unlikely that the channels are short, you can choose at least two backups in different locations (preferably in different media). This means that if you buy an external hard drive and copy files, do not forget to copy the DVD key. Or, if they are simply too many to save up so effectively in DVD in two months.
Ensure that backup copies of disks used for backup and other stored safely. This way you can be sure that survives to 99.9% of the time, at least one copy of the file to something other than a natural disaster. Of course, there are other ways, such as online storage and hire purchase to make bogey, but because the attitude of "short" and the problem will go now.
That's it for today, I hope to keep this value and help them, only a conscious decision to buy the next consideration for the purchase of external hard drives .
