Ever opened up the case of your PC? If you haven’t done this in a while, you’ll probably be shocked at the amount of dust it’s accumulated.
Need a large storage device you can easily use with more than one machine? An external USB hard drive is the ideal choice.
We recommend the portable versions generally, as- in addition to being lighter and easier to carry around- they don’t need a separate power supply (which saves you from having to carry around something else!).

The large companies fudge the concept of “ownership” to their own benefit.
Introduction
Many people looking to have their valuable phone or tablet repaired might be interested- or put more bluntly, shocked- to find out how little many repair technicians actually know… and how reliant they are on beginners’ howto “guides” found online.
There are lots of them out there, either in video or written form. We know of one guy spotted following a YouTube video while he did the customer’s repair. (Spoiler; the guy’s repair attempt wasn’t successful- in fact, he made things worse).
Does any of this matter in practice? Yes, it does- and here’s why.
