    In my humble opinion, Terry is in fact taking the correct course of action.
    His computer is quite old, so the hard drive is old. He could take it out and use it as an external hard drive, but it may shit itself anytime (being so old) so in the long run it's better to take all the data off it and store it in another computer, as well as its external ....backup....drive.

    That way there are always two copies of all his important photos.....which is the paramount thing.

    The only thing that I am concerned about is my photos which is why I have two external hard drives with copies on both and the other two older computers also have those pics on them.

    My first original lap top is totally fucked so all those pics are gone but my hard drive on my HP pavilion should be Ok and fire up when this guy fixes the mother board.

    I have a few pics there that I have not copied plus my Australian Tax which I was 4 hours into.

    I'm now using the Handbags Toshiba Satellite which is quite newish but the touch pad is fucking up.

    Gremlins have come to town.

    I'll fix the HP for 3500 Baht run it till it spits it again and then buy a new one.

    But then I need to learn windows 10.1.

    Oh, yes that will be fun considering I've just got it together with windows 7.

    Not that difficult, because after fucking it all up with Windows 8 they went back to the start menu and so on.

    You dont need to do that, you just take out the hard drive and plug it into the case, which costs a few hundred baht. You dont need an external hard drive. Look at the link in my last post.
    ITS A CASE THAT TURNS YOUR INNER HARD DRIVE INTO AN EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE FOR NEXT TO FUCK ALL. YA GREAT GALLAH

    Sorry to shout



    Even I knew that. Happened to me but unlike Terry I realised the computer was worth shit and ditched it straight away after the Fortune Tower chappie took out the hard drive and put it into a case with a couple of leads.

    Bought the Macbook Air and plugged the case into it and it can read all my stuff.

    And I thought I was the epitome of computer illiteracy.
