I wanted to create a back up of my files so I was planning to get an external hard drive. The technician confuses me about the advantages between a normal external hard drive and a solid state drive which is more expensive.

I have important files on my computer saved on, My Documents.  Every time I make updates on my current files and create new files, I always copy it to my external hard disk as my backup. But it takes time in copying and sometimes I forgot to backup my files when my work is loaded.

Is there a way to make it easier for me to backup my files regularly?

Hello,

I have a 16 GB Transcend pen drive. When I copy some data into my pen drive from my campus, the computer of my campus always detects a virus named comres.dll with USB Disk Security and Kaspersky Antivirus. But I am using Avast Free Antivirus which had never complained to me about the virus!!!

Avast Antivirus software really works to detect virus? 

My pen drive shows write protected ?

I did not transfer any data. How can I solve this problem ?

I had configured automatic files and folder backups to take place at midnight every night. I have accepted the default of letting Windows decide what files and folders to back up.

A file that my brother is working on for a school project has been corrupted. I am  concerned that because I did not specify my brother's Documents library, he cannot restore the file from backup.

What do I do?

USB Device Not Recognized

One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it.

I was going through some older hard drives to see what I needed to keep and what I can possibly get rid of. Alas, I went to plug in my older model Seagate and now the computer will not recognize the drive. Is it possible that I reformat the drive so it will work with my machine.

My computer memory storage is 160GB. I have total 4 drives.C,D,E and F. My computer is now a little slow and I think I got some virus on those hard drives. I want to format those drives except for C drive.

So how do I do that ?

Hi,

I have an external verbatim hard disk with 2Gb of capacity. In fact, when copying a large file (more than 4Gb of size), the copying procedure is always incomplete and stops at 4Gb of size of a corrupted file in my disk, but no error message is displayed.

Can anybody help me ?

Thanks

Wishing to all. I have a micro SD 1GB memory card for my mobile device. Original capacity was 970MB. But now its shows not more than 32MB. And all of files are corrupted. I can’t make any format . Any recovery tool can’t recover my data. So I am in big trouble. My memory card is damaged or it can make ok. Please anyone advice me.

Hi,

I purchased a new 80GB Western Digital PATA hard disk and connected it to my computer using an Ultra ATA cable with the jumper set to 'master'. But Windows shows the hard disk size only as 32GB even though the jumper is not set to 'Limit to 32GB'. There is no 'slave' disk connected to the cable.

Can anyone help?
