In comparison, the hard disk is a very vulnerable category, hard disk protection is very easy to have problems, on the one hand, vibration is the most important murderer, so do not carry the host computer when running, the other is to use the habit, in the hard drive high-speed operation (chassis panel flashing red light), do not restart the computer or directly cut off the power; If you remove the hard drive, the correct way to take the hard drive is to hold both sides, it is best not to touch the back of the circuit board, because the hands of static electricity may damage the circuit board (especially when the climate is dry), transport the hard disk is best put on anti-static bag, and then use foam protection
Do not suddenly power off when the hard drive is reading and writing
Now the hard disk speed is very high, usually 5400 rpm or 7200 rpm, in the hard drive to read, write operation, the hard disk in a high-speed rotating state, if suddenly power off, may make the head and the disc between the heavy friction and damage the hard drive. Be sure to note that the hard drive LEDs are still blinking on the chassis panel when the computer is turned off. If the hard drive indicator lights flashing more than the hard drive read, write operation has not been completed, at this time should not immediately turn off the power supply, only when the hard drive lights stop flashing, the hard drive to complete read, write operations can be shut down.
Attention to maintaining environmental hygiene
In damp, dust and dust severely exceeded the environment in the use of computers, there will be more pollutants adsorbed on the surface of the printed circuit board and spindle motor internal, affect the normal work of the hard disk, in the installation of hard disk with the back of the printed circuit board down, to reduce dust and PCB contact; Humid environment will also make the electrical devices such as insulation resistance instability, in the hard drive read, write operation is very easy to produce data loss and other failures. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the sanitation clean and reduce the humidity and dust content in the air.
Do not open the hard drive cover by yourself
If there is a physical failure on the hard disk, do not open the hard drive cover, because if the dust in the air into the hard drive, in the head read, write operations will scratch the disc or head, if you do need to open the hard cover to repair, you must send to professional manufacturers for maintenance, do not open the hard disk cover.
Do a good job of the hard disk shockproof measures
Hard disk is a kind of precision equipment, working when the head in the disc surface floating height only a few microns, when the hard disk is read, write state, once a large vibration, it may cause the head and disc impact, resulting in hard disk damage. Therefore, when the computer is running, it is best not to move it, in addition, the hard drive in the mobile or transport is best to use foam or sponge packaging protection, as far as possible to reduce vibration.
Get the hard drive right
Hard to hold on the hand do not bump caused by physical damage, and then one need to pay attention to prevent static electricity on the hard drive caused damage. Especially in the dry weather is very easy to produce static electricity, if you accidentally touch the hard disk on the back of the circuit board, static electricity may damage to the hard disk of electronic components, resulting in the hard drive can not operate normally. The correct way to get the hard drive by hand is to grab both sides of the hard drive with your hand and avoid direct contact with the circuit board on the back.
The hard disk is the most important storage medium in the computer, but many people ignore the hard drive maintenance, the first computer will let the hard disk full load operation: Watching High-definition DVD movies, non-stop bt download, using Windows System Restore function, so that the hard drive is always in a full load operation situation.
