I am advised to make backups of my entire system on occasion.
Which sort of memory-storage device available on the marketplace (Retail or Internet) should I use to store (make backups) of my 500GB hard drive?

Answer by avomatic
The easyest method would be to purchase a 500gb usb drive, they usually include backup utilities that will backup your system in the background. you can also consider online backup like carbonite.

What price-range should I expect to pay for such a device and which sort is “most compatible” with WIN VISTA?

I recommend a FreeAgent® GoFlex™ USB 3.0 Kit Black 750GB by Seagate. Currently Amazon is selling it for around .00

your game does not save to the disk it saves, like you said to your HDD, so if you put in a different MW3 disk it wont know the difference and you will be able to resume from where you left off

Answer by Fola
Probably they installed an older problematic drive,go back there and tell them the problem.You can download a drive diagnostic utility and check how many hours/days the drive is running so you can tell if the drive is new or old.

When I turned it back on the hard disk started making weird noises and then the computer stopped detecting it…. I had this hard disk for LESS THAN A MONTH and have valuable data on it.

I have the purchase bills but I’d rather have my data back than exchange it for a new hard disk.
PLEASE HELP.
I tried a bit of data recovery software but in that just the name of the hard disk shows up.. the hard disk continues to makes noises and then the whole computer freezes up. :/

Answer by Abhijeet Nagawade
1) Use Hiren’s Boot CD to check HDD health and data integrity.

2) Use another HDD to boot and then check if the damaged HDD shows data

you should insert your penis into your computer into a usb drive then copy all data to your penis. next, stick penis in some other computer to move data.
