How to prolong the service life of the notebook?

for many people, it's hard to get the most out of a new laptop, and you want to make the most of it. Be aware that, like all electronic products, notebooks become more and more depleted as the lifespan increases. But like a properly maintained car or bicycle, the service life of a laptop can be prolonged if properly cared for.

Let's take a look at 4 little common sense that can help us extend our laptop life.

　　1, take good care of the hard drive

Now many laptops are equipped with SSD solid disk, SSD fixed disk can reduce the computer due to hard disk failure and the probability of panic. In fact, as long as the use of the method and the use of skills, can also early detection of potential problems in the computer.

Temperature is a very important factor, so be sure to keep your notebook cool at all times. Applications such as Drivedx and Crystaldiskinfo can help users monitor the hard drive status (including current temperature) and alert users when problems are detected.

Removing unnecessary files, applications, and clutter will also help reduce the temperature of the hard drive. In essence, anything that reduces the difficulty of hard drive work can help improve its service life and even the entire life of a laptop.

　　2. Consider the battery

The battery is another component on the laptop that is going to be extremely fast, and over time it will have a day of its demise. But if the user can take good care of the battery, and keep its healthy operation at all times, its service life can be extended.

As with hard drives, keeping the battery cool is one of the important steps to prevent its rapid loss and deterioration. It is worth mentioning that too cold or too hot for the laptop battery is not good. So remember not to put the notebook computer in the sun exposure, and do not throw it in the snow in a whim. After a long period of time has not been used, it is best to first recharge the notebook computer and then use, do not feel that the remaining electricity consumption after the battery will be better.

At the same time, if you want to recharge the laptop, do not just plug in the power for a while to unplug. Similarly, if the battery is full 100%, do not discard it without disconnecting the power adapter.

Some experts say that every time the laptop is charged with only 40%-80%, the best protection for the battery. To do this, you can use battery management applications like battery Monitor, Batexpert, and so on.

　　3. Protect yourself from malicious software

There is no doubt that a healthy laptop should not be flooded with viruses or malware, so be sure to keep it safe by installing the appropriate software for your notebook.

Protecting the operating system from malware is a top priority for users, as well as ensuring that security vulnerabilities are fixed and timed to optimize notebooks. Older web browsers are vulnerable to attack, so remember to upgrade your browser to the latest. Fortunately, most browsers now have the ability to update automatically, and users don't have to worry about it.

The Windows 10 system has its own security software, and MAC OS x provides built-in protection. If this is not enough, AVG, BitDefender, Avira, Kaspersky and so on are excellent anti-virus software, but also have Windows and Mac OS x version.

The most important thing is to be vigilant when using laptops, and not to easily open suspicious email links, apps, and browser Plug-ins.

　　4. Keep clean and ventilated

It is a big mistake to think that many people feel that the dust and dirt from the outside will not have much effect on the performance of laptops. In fact, dust and liquid dirt may permeate the inside of the notebook from the cracks in the casing, causing internal hardware damage.

The best clean is the laptop screen, the fan is another must remember to regularly clean the site, once the fan accumulated too much dust, may directly lead to the fault of the notebook computer.
