All data files are stored on the hard drive of the Shenzhou laptop. Therefore, once it is damaged, the loss caused to the user will not only be limited to the cost of the hardware, but the most important thing is that the important data is likely to disappear.

Based on the investigation and analysis of the damage to these hard drives, it was found that a considerable part of the reasons are improper use. As long as you are more careful and use your laptop in the correct way, you can Preventing hard disk threats before they occur can also extend the life of your notebook.

1. The hard disk cannot be shut down suddenly when it is working

When the hard disk starts to work, it is usually spinning at high speed. If the power is suddenly turned off midway, it may cause violent friction between the magnetic head and the disk and damage the hard disk, so avoid sudden shutdown.

When shutting down without plugging in the battery, be sure to pay attention to whether the hard disk indicator light on the panel is still flashing. The computer's power switch can only be turned off after the indicator light stops flashing and the hard disk read and write is completed.

2. Avoid hard disk shock

Laptops are popular because of their ease of movement. However, while it is convenient to move, it also bears the dangers that may be caused to the hard disk during the movement. The hard disk is a high-precision device. When working, the flying height of the magnetic head on the surface of the disk is only a few microns. When the hard disk is in the reading and writing state, once a large vibration occurs, it may cause the magnetic head to collide with the disk, resulting in damage.

Therefore, during use, you must be careful to handle it with care and avoid bumping or colliding with other hard objects. Especially when working, it is best not to move easily to minimize vibration.

3. Avoid turning off the laptop for a long time

Many users directly close the screen to put the laptop into sleep or standby mode when they are not using it. Not shutting down for a long time will not only cause your system to run slowly, but also increase the burden on the hardware. If things go on like this, the hard disk will be damaged faster.

4. Regularly back up hard disk data

Each user is required to back up data independently and consciously to avoid hardware failure and still be able to Retrieve this data.

5. Regularly disinfect the hard drive

Nowadays, the scope of virus attacks is becoming more and more extensive, and the hard disk, as the information storage base of the computer, is usually the first choice target for its attacks. Therefore, in order to ensure the security of your hard drive, please install standard anti-virus software and update virus definitions in a timely manner, and conduct virus scans regularly.

6. Prevent dust from entering

Dust can cause great damage to the hard drive. Dust accumulated on the internal circuit components of the hard drive for a long time will affect the heat dissipation of the electronic components, causing the temperature of the circuit components to rise, causing leakage or burning out the components.

Remember: Generally, users cannot remove the hard disk cover by themselves, otherwise dust in the air will enter the hard disk and scratch the disk or magnetic head when the magnetic head performs read and write operations.
