Are there ways to postpone hard drive failure?
• Scan and defrag your hard drive from time to time and keep your system optimized. That improves PC performance; you hard drive spins less and hard drive wear and tear reduces. • Hard drive bearings suffer the most wear. Let your hard drive spin down when you are not using your computer for some time. • Maintain reasonable balance between keeping your computer running and shutting down when you are not using it. • Avoid mechanical or electric damage, don’t expose your computer to vibration, shaking, high temperatures, water, fire, steam.
