Upgrading The External Hard Disk Drive

Oct

I have been using Maxtor 500GB external hard disk drive for may backup since May 2008. Lately, the fan on this drive started make noise and was getting worse. So, I asked my company's support team to replace the fan.

We have opened the unit and found the fan just needed some lubrication. They took care of that. Then they ask me if I wanted to upgrade 500MB drive to 1TB drive. They had 4 1TB drives in stock. I said "Yes". and now I have 1TB external drive that is faster and quieter than before.

It took less than 1/2 hour for all this. If you have an external hard disk unit that is more than a year old, I recommend you swap your drive to bigger and better drive. It is one of the cheapest upgrades you can do to your computer.
