How to Maintain Your Hard Disk Drive

Your hard disk drive is one of the most important parts of your PC. It’s where all your system files, applications and user data reside. Most people understand the issue of security, the importance of making regular backups of your user data as an insurance policy against catastrophic failure of a hard disk drive. Perhaps fewer appreciate the importance of having a regular hard disk maintenance regime, design to keep it in good working order.
