[tejadster]

iisa lang ba yung kind nito?
dina kelangan ng compatibilty some thing?

[jun_gats]

iba iba din ito, may compatibility check kang titingnan. for example ide, pata, sata, sata2 check mo yung connection at specs ng mobo mo sa specs ng hard drive

saan ba nakakabili ng hard disks

[marzi]

sa tindahan po ng mga pc parts and accessories...imposibleng wala sila nun dun...

[chette]

Kahit saan naman makakabili ka. I swore off Western Digital though. I think Maxtor is okay. But I've always been a loyal Seagate fan.

I recently bought two 750 gig SATA drives from Amazon (a lot cheaper). I wanted to buy the terabyte, but I know it will drive me crazier if anything happened to my disks (not that it won't do that now ...)

question: stable na ba ang sata technology para sa mga hdd na may malalaking sizes?

So far, so good naman. My PC is definitely approaching its 2TB mark, and muka namang walang problema.

(But then again, I haven't had it for a long time. I'll repost here if anything untoward happens)

Soooo.... how long does it take for you to defrag?

sir depende po sa specs, meron kasing 10,000 rpm atsaka meron ding mram yun. 2mb, 8mb etc... pero compared sa ide sobrang laki ng difference. imo i won't go back to ide probably kung sa percent estimation mga 40-60% siguro ang dagdag sa performance

2 terabytes? wow!

I take it you haven't used Ultimate Defrag, ordinary defrag just doesn't cut it for me. 10k rpm disks are usually raptors - very hot and noisy critters; 7200 is still the norm for most HDs. Dunno what you mean by mram...that's new to me. For a while there I thought you meant rdram.

That question will give me nightmares for the entire week. I will not justify that with an answer!

Mga high quality photos ni Jim, work stuff, video training tutorials, etc. Very minimal MP3s, though.

[marzi]

^ahehehee...madami pala mailalagay e...ako 250gb palang hirap na hirap na akong punuin...pero ngayon pa lang yun, kakabili ko pa lang pc eh...

pero 2 terabytes? di siguro ako makakatulog nun kaka explore ng mga folders nyan...mahilig pa naman ako mag ganun...

[cradleofklien]

mga bro tatanong lang.. balak ko kasi bumili ng panibagong harddisk na 250gb na seagate. may harddisk ako ng 35gb na samsung naman sa pc ko ngaun ang gusto ko sana eh pwede ko bang kabitan pa ng isang harddisk? hindi ba mabubura ung mga files ko? ano bang mangyayari kapag ung 250gb seagate + 35gb na samsung pinagcombine? pasagot naman poh! salamats!

First make sure if you're buying IDE or SATA. Some older motherboards do not have SATA connections. If buying IDE, you can either connect the new HD to the same IDE ribbon cable, just make sure the new drive is set to slave. If connecting to the second IDE channel (IDE 1), make sure you have the appropriate IDE ribbon cable (80 conductor UDMA).

If you have SATA connections, buy the appropriate drive and connect. You might have to activate the SATA port in BIOS.

You will be asked to format the new drive. Just make sure you format the correct drive instead of your old Samsung.

brad di ako gaanong experto sa hardware pero siguruhin mo kung kaya ng processor mo sabi mo 35 gb yung iyong hd baka naman pentium 3 yong proc. mahirapan siya requirements ng 250 gb at least 2.00ghz

yung sabi mo external drive ok din yun pero para sa akin kung me bakente pa slot sa  yong sistema isaksak mo mas maganda yung internal secure sya. pero make sure din na kaya ng power supply mo. yun kasing external pang bak up lang yan pero kung palagi mo gagamitin mas maganda yung internal.  sa akin  lang opinyon brad...

Please HELP !!! ... bumigay na ata yun HDD ko sa office .. very important pa naman mga files ko dun, possible pa kaya na ma-retrieve yun ? It's a Seagate SATA 80g Barracuda ..

Ganito po nangyari ... pag-pasok ko ng office, in-on ko yun pc then bumukas cya for a few mins, tpos tumigil cya kusa, nag-blue screen muna cya, tpos nag-restart on it's own and hindi na niya ma-detect yun bootdisk — w/c is, the said HDD ...

Anybody here knows where I could get help on this ... very important po talaga ...

[dref40cc]

subukan mo tangalin  yung koneksiyon sa sata wire sa iyong hard disk tapos kabit mo uli baka sakali mag work uli siya.
