Hard Disk
Your PC incorporates a built-in hard disk. This section outlines precautions to take when handling
a hard disk.
What is a hard disk?
○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○
A hard disk is used to save software and other data
and consists of a magnetic disk packed in a box as
shown on the right. A hard disk can save more data
and can read and write data faster than is possible
with floppy disks.
Handling precautions
○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○
To prevent malfunctions, note the following precautions regarding hard disks:
- Do not move or subject the PC to shock and/or vibration with its power on.
- Do not expose to extreme temperature changes.
- Do not place in areas exposed to direct sunlight or near heating units.
- Do not store in areas subjected to shock or vibration.
- Do not store in damp or dusty areas.
- Do not expose to a strong magnetic field.
- Do not disassemble or remodel.
- Do not get wet.
Point
- Because incorrect handling may destroy data in a hard disk, back up all necessary data.
- Because there is a difference in the storage capacity of same-type hard disks, back up data
for each file or segment, not for each hard disk.
