I have plans to buy a hard disk. Please give me some tips on how to select a used har ddisk. Answer: To buy a used hard disk, the tips are simple. We recommend you not to choose a used hard disk.

If still not detected, too, probably the hard drive is not functioning. If the heat is from the power cable, there may be a loose power cable or something. Please check again thek cables. If the hard drive is hot, it was

Which is a problem, when we boot the hard drive to hard drive first, hard disk drives both still appear as a drive D:\. Well, how do when we boot to the hard drive first, second hard drive is hidden, and vice versa. When booting to a second hard disk, the first hard drive hidden? Answer: There are two ways to do this. The first way is the manual way, while the latter is more useful when you do not want to bother to change the settings every time needed. The first method by selecting the option to disable hard disk you do not want access through the BIOS. In this way, the drive was not accessible not only hidden by the operating system, but the total disabled access. The second method is to disable the drive from the operating system.
