Make the data recovery by your own

When we talk about data recovery or recover your data, many of us will think that it could be done by the experts when you are about to format your pc or laptop computers. Many people out there used to think, if I could, I want the data that lost when I did format my computer. Many of us think it sort of expensive to hire the expert or it just can't be.

well, my dear readers, I want to give you the right view on the data recovery. The data recovery means you get back the data that you want to (the data that permanently deleted from the computer or the data that you lost when you format your hard drive).

The solution is, you just use the data recovery software. One of the best software that I know and I used to use is ScavengerV3.0.1. It's really easy to use and the software is very user friendly. It's not a free software thus you have to buy it. But, if you are willing to use the pirate one, you could find the crack version or just buy the pirate software in $5.

General PC Care Tips

When we do have our own Pc or laptops, we must give them such a good care in order to make them in such good performance and even save a lot of our money from sending them to the pc repair shop. he he he. Actually there are tons of way to take care of your pc and laptops. So, I would like to share some general tips on it.

- The desktop computers and laptop computers need some air to keep them cool. As they are
using in all time, they use more voltage and thus, running hotter. Don't expose them in such
hot room so if you don't have the ac, you could use the fan to make the air cooler.

- If you put the computers or laptop computers in some space i.e in your room, make sure there
are no dust at that much. The dust will build up some tar on the fans and the components. If
the fans could not in well function, they could be hotter and break down, probably.

- Do not plug in any devices, unless you do insert a USB device.

- Make sure your computer or laptop computers are in the warranty. Don't loose out the
original packaging. One of the good tip on this warranty is you could buy some extended
warranty for your pc, computers laptop or machine.

- Don't make your computer case or ALU, as your cup holder, book's holder or even some metal
things on the top of it. You just screw out your machine!

- Be careful from splitting any liquid or drinks on your keyboard. You just lead your computers
meet the doom!

- Always use the anti virus software for your computers!! For my review I do recommend on
NOD32 anti virus system. It performs very well and it's not heavy for your hard drive space!

- Do the backup data all the time. We won't know what will happen in the future. So, do the
back up data for your important stuff!

- Scan your disk regularly and defrag your hard drive!!

If we get the error messages, never ever ignore them. Save them for your reference. You could hand in to the technicians if something happen to your computers or laptop computers. Although this might be a simple thing, this will save a lot of time for the technicians scanning the error and of course this could save your money!!!

Hope these simple tips will help you out there. Cheers!!

The Last Option For The Hard Drive

Well, some of us may know how to deal with the hard ware. In this case I refer it on the hard drive. No matter how hustler we are some times we may find the deadlock and we could not fix the hardware no matter how much we had done for it. In this article I won't bring the step by step tutorial on fixing your hard disk.

But I give you the last option for the hard drive if we are in such deadlock. In the other word, there's nothing we could do with it. The solution is, just throw the hard drive to the wall!! LOLOLOL!! It sounds crazy but believe me! My cousin did that and suddenly the hard drive working again after smashing it to the wall. The most impressive result is the hard drive is working till now on!! It's about 3 years ago..If you face the same situation, why don't you try on it, instead of buying the new one. Best of luck!! :)

Defragment Your Hard Drive

One of the computer care tips that I bring today is defragging your hard drive. How to degragment the hard drive? You could see the defragment fuction in the accessories part, and go to system tools and you will see Disk Defragmenter. You must defragmenting your hard drive one by one. Some of friends did ask me why should we defgragment our hard drive? Since most of them are not a computer literate people, so just think what the best words to use in order to make them understand very well on my explanations.

Just imagine you do have a large home library of books arranged in volumes. Also imagine that you will re-shelves the books in a way which moves the individual books in the volumes further apart from each other. If you do buy the new books that's mean books are added to library, the further apart and more mixed up the books in the volumes become. Now imagine that you come to the library and want to check out an entire volume of books. You would have to search all over the library to find each individual book in the volume that you want. Well, it sort of all your cooking books, drawing books are mixed up with your kid's comic and their drawing color books. In computer terms, what is happening when the individual books are re-shelved in this way is called fragmenting, and this is what happens to your computer as you install programs, download files, or just use your computer in general.

When running programs that contains hundreds of files, fragmenting can degrade the performance of your computer. As the clusters of files on your hard drive become fragmented, they grow further apart and it takes longer for your computer to find and assemble all the pieces necessary to run the programs. This is where defragmenting comes in. It rearranges the files on your hard drive so they are back in order, which cuts down on access latency (the time it takes to access your files). It just like you do the re- shelve the books in your home library and make them into one specific topic to make it more easy to find. This could greatly reduce the time it takes to find whole volumes or individual books in those volumes.

I think you do understand very well right why should we defragment our hard drive?? :) But I do have one more tip when you are doing the degfragment processes.

Close all programs when you are defragmenting the hard drive. Why?? As a good analogy for this case is, when you are re-shelving the books, the kids come and take the books. Thus, you can't arrange the books on the right shelve and your kids will put the books in any shelve that they wish to!

I hope this article is good for very body and help you guys out there!!
