Avoid magnetic fields
To protect the existing data on the hard disk, do not place devices that contain magnetic fields / strong electromagnets around a laptop. From these devices producing magnetic fields, such as speakers are not shielded (unshielded speaker system) or cellular telephone. If you want to access the Internet using the facility infrared on the phone, put the phone within a distance of about 15 cm from the laptop.

Deadly correctly
Never turn off the laptop while the hard drive indicator light is still blinking. This indicates the hard disk is still active. The loss of power suddenly (eg when the laptop is turned off) can cause data loss or interruption of performance on the hard disk. Make sure the hard drive light was switched off before you shutdown the laptop.

Hinges lcd monitor
If observed closely, in the folds between the CPU and the LCD monitor there is a hinge that allows the two components were clenched to each other. Be aware that the heaviest burden in a laptop is on the hinge part. Therefore, do not give a snap when opening the monitor when going to activate the laptop. Vice versa, do not be too hard to close the monitor when finished using the portable computer.

Do not disassemble the laptop.
Dismantle their own laptops or not by experts, is a very unwise action. Laptops are not like ordinary radio or tape recorder. Many parts of the very small of the manufacturer have been assembled using robotic precision. If you're careless, then your laptop could be damaged severely. Always carry a defective laptop to the IT or the service center of your laptop.

When running programs leave temporary files, the hard drive must receive a file that is not required. For that, clean the hard drives of those files at least once a month for a laptop can work better.

Nearly 90 percent of the paralysis of some software applications and data corruption due to viruses. With antivirus installed, then the data in the laptop will be safe.

For treatment of hard disk, do defrag once a month on the hard disk. The goal is to rearrange the position of the files that are dispersed so that accelerate the search for the file system. Then use ScanDisk to correct errors found in the directory and File Allocation Table.

Try to also make more than one hard disk partitions, such as two or three partitions. This is useful if one day, the operating system that we use has an error (broken) which is usually accommodated in the partition C, it can easily stay reformat the operating system, without disrupting the existence of various kinds of data are typically stored on another partition, for example the partition D or partition E.
